Chapter 777 Threaten (1/2)

A deep crevice extended across Xuanzhou City, destroying its balance like a scar that had suddenly appeared on a beauty’s porcelain face.

However, no one in Xuanzhou City was paying any attention to the crevice as they blankly stood there in complete silence.

The building at the end of the crevice had collapsed and there was no movement or sound from Mo Yuan.

Everyone was finally certain that Mo Yuan had lost.

Disbelief immediately surged in their hearts. They couldn’t believe that a famous heaven pride Divine Dwelling List ranker like Mo Yuan would be defeated in front of their eyes.

Moreover, it was a youngster at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage who had defeated him!

“I can’t believe that Mo Yuan lost.”

Everyone from the Yi clan camp stood in stunned silence. Even Heavenly Sun experts such as Yi Qianji and Liu Tianying were a bit dumbfounded.

The young men and women continuously swallowed their saliva.

They clearly understood how shocking this scene was.

When this matter spread, it would certainly cause an uproar in Tianyuan Region.

A look of awe and respect crept onto everybody’s faces. When they recalled how they had doubted and mocked Zhou Yuan before, they felt so ashamed that they wanted to find a hole to jump into.

Liu Ming’s mouth hung slightly ajar but no sound emerged. Her older brother had always been the most outstanding in her eyes, but as she stared at Zhou Yuan’s figure, she had no choice but to admit that even the brother she always looked up to seemed to have lost his l.u.s.ter.

She murmured somewhat bitterly, “How can there be such a freak.”

It was only now that she realized how naive and ridiculous she had been before.

“Qiushui has amazing judgement.” Yi Qianji couldn’t help but compliment her.

They had all questioned Yi Qiushui’s decision before, but she had refused to back down. Now, they finally understood who was right in the end.

If Zhou Yuan hadn’t stepped forward, their clan would have inevitably lost the battle as well as the position of Prefecture Lord.

That would have been a disastrous outcome.

Yi Qiushui was similarly staring at Zhou Yuan’s slim body with sparkling eyes. In truth, she had also not antic.i.p.ated this result.

In the beginning, she had merely felt that Zhou Yuan shouldn’t be weaker than an ordinary advanced Divine Dwelling stage expert, and didn’t really place all her expectations on him.

But he had now shown that he wasn’t ordinary at all!

Yi Qiushui furtively smiled, causing her oval face to look even more beautiful and charming.

In contrast to the shock and joy on that Yi clan’s side, the atmosphere on the Qiu clan’s side was gloomy and lifeless. Everyone’s faces were ashen, and there was even murderous intent spouting uncontrollably from Qiu Long’s eyes.

How could they accept such a result!

The Qiu clan had schemed and endured for so many years to grasp the opportunity that had finally presented itself today. They had even paid a huge price to ask the Heavenly Spirit Sect for support—securing Mo Yuan, a heaven pride ranker on the Divine Dwelling List!

They were fully confident of success!

Who could have imagined that a boy would appear out of nowhere and tear their perfect plan to pieces.

“That little b.a.s.t.a.r.d!” Qiu Long's face contorted in anger.

Besides rage, Qiu Long also felt a little fearful because of the potential Zhou Yuan had displayed. Zhou Yuan was already very difficult to deal with at the intermediate Divine Dwelling stage, how strong would he be once he reaches the Heavenly Sun stage?

The Qiu clan had already become enemies with Zhou Yuan. If they allowed him to reach the Heavenly Sun stage, he would become a real danger to the Qiu clan in the future.
