Chapter 102 : Marquis of Suppressive Might (2)
Li Shuangyan gave him a cold look and didn’t say anything. She was familiar with this expression. Everything was already under Li Qiye’s control whenever he showed this expression.
Many people paid attention to Li Qiye when he looked at the stone door, and there was also attention towards Li Shuangyan, who was next to him. She attracted even more gazes from the younger disciples.
“Who is that boy?”
Li Qiye’s arrival was reprimanded by Marquis of Suppressive Might, but afterwards, he still spoke conceited nonsense. At this moment, he even had a peerless beauty like Li Shuangyan by his side. It would be too difficult to not attract the attention of the people. Even people of the older generation were perplexed and thought that Li Qiye’s origin must be heavenly frightening.
“I heard that he is the prime disciple of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect from two years ago. He’s not very exceptional and is only a disciple with a Mortal Physique, Mortal Life, and Mortal Fate. Rumor has it that he was only eligible to become the prime disciple because he found the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect’s Ancient Order.”
There were a few sects close to the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect and discovered some information regarding Li Qiye.
Hearing this caused many people to glance at each other. He was a disciple with only a Mortal Physique and Mortal Fate yet he was still being so arrogant, was he tired of living?
“The Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect truly has no talents. This type of disciple is considered a treasure?”
Seeing Li Shuangyan next to Li Qiye caused the hearts of many to be uncomfortable, especially the younger ones.
“The Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect only values him because he has the backing of the Nine Saint Demon Gate.”
As a Royal n.o.ble of the Heavenly Jewel Kingdom, Marquis of Primordial Origins somewhat knew the inside story, and he said:
“It is said that the Progenitor of the Nine Saint Demon Gate established an ancestral rule: if the prime disciple of the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect was male and the descendant of the Nine Saint Demon Gate was female, then the descendant would have to marry the prime disciple so that the two sects would be in-laws.”
“Isn’t this a bouquet of flowers stuck into a pile of cow manure?”
A few young ones that heard this news became indignant and felt injustice for Li Shuangyan:
“G.o.ddess Li’s beauty is peerless. She is also the grand beauty of our Grand Middle Territory. Rumor has it that she has a Saint Fate Palace along with a peerless apt.i.tude. She’s definitely a young genius…”
“For an amazing character like G.o.ddess Li, even throughout the whole Grand Middle Territory, there are only so few people who could be a good match for her. There was a talent from Old Ox Country who proposed a marriage to the Nine Saint Demon Gate, but he was refused. And now, such a peerless character like G.o.ddess Li is betrothed to a bag of straw? This is so unfair!”
The young cultivators gritted their teeth in an indignant and infuriated manner. It was as if everyone in the world was displeased with this matter.
“That's right, it’s so unfortunate for G.o.ddess Li. A character like her shouldn’t be in this situation.”
At the Grand Middle Territory, countless people adored Li Shuangyan. In the hearts of countless cultivators, Li Shuangyan was their G.o.ddess. Today, she was betrothed to such a bag of straws. How could they not be feeling indignant?
In a short amount of time, many angry glares, that were seemingly capable of killing him, fell upon Li Qiye. Li Qiye’s great fortune caused others to be hateful.
“It turns out to be a loser that is only relying on a woman to be arrogant.”
A genius like Marquis of the Eastern River also contemptuously glared at Li Qiye. Li Qiye — this type of person, he is not worthy to be Marquis of the Eastern River’s opponent.
The moment Li Qiye returned his hands, he looked at the battlefield and saw that Gu Tieshou and Marquis of Suppressive Might were unable to determine a victor; he shook his head and said:
“Elder Gu, the Kun Peng’s Six Variants does not rely on its offensive power but its s.p.a.ce traversing property. You still don’t understand its profound principles so you cannot exert its true power! For the Kun Peng’s Six Variants, power isn’t important; the importance lies in its ability to escape the confinements of s.p.a.ce. Gather the power of s.p.a.ce, then naturally release it.”
Gu Tieshou, using the Kun Peng’s Six Variants, was powerful and continuously broke the offense of Marquis of Suppressive Might, but the True Treasure of Marquis of Suppressive Might was not just for show; his attack was relentless and became increasingly murderous.
Li Qiye’s words moved Gu Tieshou! A Fate merit law was not only the foundation of the Dao, but it was also a technique to protect the Fate Palace and punish one’s enemies. Therefore, Gu Tieshou didn’t even need a Life Treasure and directly used the Kun Peng’s Six Variants to — once again — suppress Marquis of Suppressive Might. Moreover, he became more comfortable as the battle went on. Gu Tieshou felt a bit proud; before, he could only hide his strength and couldn’t battle and kill. He definitely couldn’t meet an opponent at the same level. However, now, he was using the Kun Peng’s Six Variants so meticulously that it caused Gu Tieshou to feel extremely satisfied.
Now, Gu Tieshou’s heart was shaken. Until a moment ago, he had only used the Kun Peng’s Six Variants for two purposes. The first was to cultivate his Dao foundation and refine his True Fate while the second was to punish the enemies and protect his body. At this moment, Li Qiye’s words broke through his limited understanding.
“Roll!”
The phrase woke up someone from his dream. Gu Tieshou roared and the Kun Peng landed at the top of his head. At this moment, the Kun Peng was only as big as a fist. It swung its tail at an extremely alarming pace, and there was an immediate feeling of s.p.a.ce and power that began to pile up a thousand times.
Within a flash of light, Gu Tieshou released a punch. This was the “Black Tiger Crawling Heart”, the most ordinary technique in the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect! However, this punch carried along the thousand rhythms from the Kun Peng and a power of the endless Grand Dao. This punch looked like an ordinary punch, but the blood energy’s future waves encompa.s.sed the other older waves and cascaded into many layers. With his Life Wheel rolling, it flooded out like an entire sea of blood.
“Bang — Bang — Bang–”
In a flash, the s.p.a.ce under this one punch cracked like a mirror and finally, a “Boom” sound emerged. The punch heavily struck the treasure paG.o.da of Marquis of Suppressive Might.
Marquis of Suppressive Might’s treasure paG.o.da was a True Treasure. At this moment, it risked its life to borrow the world’s energy. The world’s energy turned into a spring as it was channeled into the paG.o.da, but it was not enough to block this one punch. This one punch knocked the treasure paG.o.da — along with Marquis of Suppressive Might — more than one thousand miles away.
