Chapter 117 - Deified After One Battle (1/2)
Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Seeing that Xie Wuyou was forced into a tight corner, Zhou Xuanji laughed with disdain.
He came back to Jiang Xue and the rest. “Follow me,” He said.
After he spoke, he led the party to fly over the cliff. He kept his eyes on the plain, in case the Sword Monarch attacks him suddenly.
The Sword Monarch turned around and looked up at him.
At this moment, the Sword Monarch’s face was covered with blood, but he was not crippled. A dangerous aura could still be sensed coming out from him.
Their eyes met, but their positions have been inverted.
Before, it was he who stood loftily above.
Now, he was down below.
”Sword Monarch of Great Zhou, you have been injured twice by me. You still don’t want to admit defeat?”
Zhou Xuanji snorted coldly, but in his heart, he was a little afraid.
Is this guy going to lose his mind?
If he were to fight to the death, I would not win for sure.
”Yeah! You don’t have the demeanor of a grandmaster!”
”The Sword Monarch is this kind of person?”
”You said it yourself. You must be true to your words!”
”Who else would dare to challenge the Sword Monarch in the future?”
”Enough. Sword Monarch of Great Zhou, stop messing around!”
”Such a bully! Is there still any law in Great Zhou?”
The voices of the 100,000 spectators denouncing the Sword Monarch in one accord was thunderous. Countless droplets of saliva flew down like rain.
The Sword Monarch trembled and suddenly came back to himself.
In his heart, he was frightened by what happened.
He almost destroyed his own image.
But now that he was in such a pathetic situation and also seeing that Zhou Xuanji left with Xiao Jinghong, he was not willing to let things go.
Zhou Xuanji did not care about his thoughts.
He immediately led Jiang Xue, Xiao Jinghong, and the rest towards the horizon.
With swords in both hands, he looked fearsome and imposing. He did not look like he feared another battle.
The Sword Monarch grasped the sword in his hand tightly but did not make a move.
His heart was filled with grievance and fury.
From today onwards, the name of the Sword Monarch was tainted.
Sword God Zhou was that taint!
1 When Zhou Xuanji and the others disappeared into the horizon, the Sword Monarch’s Pinnacle exploded into a huge commotion again.
The 100,000 spectators showed no mercy to the Sword Monarch. Everyone was crying out the name of Sword God Zhou in one accord.
However angry the Sword Monarch was, he dared not kill every one of them.
If he did so, even someone as powerful as he would not be able to leave Great Zhou!
Speaking about power, someone with supreme authority in Great Zhou was more powerful than him!
”He really did it…”
Zhou Chengxin mumbled to himself. Ever since he guessed Zhou Xuanji’s identity correctly, his emotions became very complicated. He could no longer cheer for Zhou Xuanji.
He understood that, from that day onwards, Sword God Zhou would become a strong rival in the fight to become the successor. Zhou Xuanji was no weaker than Zhou Yalong. He was of even a more significant threat.
Zhou Tianyu sat on the ground blankly.
”Hehehe. That’s what I said. Sword God Zhou will win for sure!”
Princess Xuanya made a funny face at Zhou Tianyu and giggled.
But, Zhou Tianyu did not react as before. He was not angry but continued to sit unmovingly on the ground.
”Such a big game of chess…” He mumbled in his mouth, “So it was your plan all along…”
Princess Xuanya heard and shook her head.
This dumb older brother could not take the result. He might have been going crazy.
Looking in the direction of Zhou Xuanji’s departure, the Sword Monarch’s face became sinister.
”Sword God Zhou! I will tear you into pieces! Your legendary sword will be mine!”
He roared in his heart with bloodshot eyes.
At this moment, he did not look like a grandmaster in the Sword’s Way but an evil cultivator instead.
…
After flying swiftly for dozens of miles, Zhou Xuanji landed on Ah Big’s back and Jiang Xue caught him in her arms. He then stored up his God-Emperor and the Sky-sundering Emperor Sword.
As the great power disappeared, a wave of horrifying feedback exploded.
”Pttfff—”
Zhou Xuanji could not hold it but vomited a massive gulp of blood onto Ah Big’s head.
