Young Lightning King was a proud genius of his generation who had reached third-stage Skysoar Realm before 30 years old. His talent, coupled with Lightning Emperor's backing, destined him to a bright future. It was such a genius that Jin Wo had nearly killed with a slam to the ground.
Both Xia Liuhui and w.a.n.g Zhenchuan feared for Xiang Shaoyun. Although the Cloud Margin Pavilion had declined after the recent incident, it was still an organization with Emperors. Since Xiang Shaoyun had brought a Demon Emperor here to commit murder, it was very likely that the Cloud Margin Pavilion would not spare him.
But they knew they wouldn't be of much help, so they did as told and brought Zi Changhe back into the estate. Meanwhile, Xiang Shaoyun was walking toward Young Lightning King.
Chen Zilong couldn't help but ask, ”You are not going to create havoc here in the Cloud Margin Pavilion, right?”
Xiang Shaoyun replied, ”I don't have the time for that, but I am definitely getting some payback.”
Chen Zilong did not understand what Xiang Shaoyun meant. He a.s.sumed that Xiang Shaoyun was trying to get payback for Zi Changhe, and did not say anything else. After all, Xiang Shaoyun's subordinates were all extremely powerful. If he wanted, he could easily flatten the Cloud Margin Pavilion.
Xiang Shaoyun arrived before the hole that had been made with Young Lightning King's body. Inside, Young Lightning King was lying amid a puddle of blood. He was gravely injured but still breathing.
It was obvious Jin Wo had held back his attack. He could have easily killed 10 Young Lightning Kings if he had wanted.
Looking at the indignation and pain on Young Lightning King's face, Xiang Shaoyun said, ”Looks like you have forgotten everything you did at the Golden River Valley.”
Those words finally brought back some memories to Young Lightning King's head.
”That...that person...was you!” Young Lightning King cried out in shock.
He still remembered that he had gone to the Golden River Valley with some other Kings to figure out its secret. Back then, they had found a cave with Xiang Shaoyun near it. They had used him as a scout and had tossed him into the cave. He had only survived the vicious gold energy through sheer luck.
”You remember now? Good, you won't die without knowing the reason, then,” said Xiang Shaoyun indifferently.
He lifted his hand, preparing to end Young Lightning King's life.
Young Lightning King's pupils shrank as he shouted, ”No, don't kill me! My master is...the Lightning Emperor!”
”So what? I'll still kill you,” said Xiang Shaoyun with disdain.
”What big words. Do you think nothing of me at all?” a voice suddenly rang out in the air.
Then, a figure streaked through the air and instantly appeared before Xiang Shaoyun. This person was none other than Lightning Emperor. Not long ago, he had been gravely injured soon after his breakthrough and had nearly died. If the Cloud Margin Pavilion had not contributed a large number of precious medicines to heal him, he wouldn't have survived.
Despite surviving, a shadow had been planted in his heart. His foundations had been shaken, and it would be very hard for him to keep advancing in the future. Even so, an Emperor was still a top existence within the Cloud Margin City.
Lightning Emperor had come because he sensed Jin Wo's aura, but when he arrived, what he saw was his dying disciple. The disrespect Xiang Shaoyun was showing him further increased his anger.
As the Lightning Emperor, he was actually looked down on by a kid that was not even at the Skysoar Realm. That was total disrespect. After the previous disgrace he had suffered, he had the feeling that everyone was looking at him with ridicule and sympathy, putting him in an odd mental state. Coupled with this disdain Xiang Shaoyun was showing him, it caused the shadow in his heart to grow, and his mental state worsened.
