Chapter 435: Radiant Cult
Translator: Yukidaruma Translations Editor: Yukidaruma TranslationsNo one knew what had happened, not even Deus himself. He only felt an immense pain in his chest, as if he had been smashed with a hammer. Deus dropped to his knees and spurt blood out without stopping.
Deus looked at Fang Xingjian in astonishment. His eyes were filled with terror and hostility. “What did you do?!”
However, Fang Xingjian had already once again turned his focus toward the sky. Unknowingly, the dark clouds in the sky had gotten increasingly darker, and strong gales of wind blew high up in the air. There were even faint sounds of rumbling thunder coming from the depths of the clouds.
A storm was coming.
Deus felt that the pain in his chest was growing worse with time, and blood foam bubbled out continuously from his mouth. He looked toward the Blood Kaiser in agony and said, “Lord, save me.”
However, the Blood Kaiser’s eyes narrowed. He looked at Fang Xingjian, eyes filled with astonishment and questions. It was because even he was unable to see clearly how Deus had gotten injured.
However, it was also impossible for him to ignore Deus. He went up and examined Deus, discovering that Deus had received a crushing blow to his chest. Deus’ ribs were smashed, but it was not life-threatening.
Therefore, he directly controlled Deus’ blood to treat his injuries.
The Blood Kaiser then turned toward Fang Xingjian and said coldly, “Who on earth are you? Why did you attack a member of our Circle of the Crimson Moon without any reason? Are you thinking of making an enemy out of our Circle of the Crimson Moon?”
Fang Xingjian continued to reply with silence. Faced with the Blood Kaiser’s questioning, Fang Xingjian merely disregarded it completely.
The people around them looked at the scene as if they were waiting to watch a show. They had no idea that even the Blood Kaiser could not figure out the attack which had injured Deus earlier.
All they knew was that this young man appeared to be only in his teens. To think that he would dare to challenge the Circle of the Crimson Moon and the Blood Kaiser like this… This young man was dead meat.
The Ice Palace’s Priestess pouted, as if she was thinking of how Fang Xingjian had also paid them no heed earlier. She said, “This guy is really arrogant. To think that he dares to ignore even the Blood Kaiser. He’s in for it this time.”
The Ice Palace’s Saint also shook her head. No matter what the young man had as his backup, but for him to treat a second transition expert with such rudeness, it was certain that he would be in trouble right now. Even if he could get his payback in the future, it would not be worth it.
This was especially so when she recalled how her own Master had given in earlier. The Saint thought disapprovingly, ‘This guy’s temper is really too bad. When faced with a person like the Blood Kaiser, one must first give in and get past the present moment. Isn’t facing him head-on just being harsh on yourself?’
However, the Blood Kaiser did not do what everyone expected him to. He did not immediately take action just because they could not come to an agreement.
The Blood Kaiser was experienced in battles and had slowly climbed up the ranks from the very bottom. The more Fang Xingjian behaved with such great fearlessness, the more the Blood Kaiser would be wary and unwilling to recklessly take action.
However, if he were to leave things as it was, it would be a blow to his prestige.
Just then, another series of explosions rang out in the air, and streams of light descended. It was as if another sun had been born in the sky.
A group of people leaped up above the platform. The man in the lead had a head of fiery red hair which seemed like burning flames. He exuded limitless light throughout his body. Each strand of the hair on his eyebrow and each inch of his skin seemed to be from a perfect sculpture, displaying a brilliant perfection.
It was just like the sun god of the legends, exuding endless charm and radiance.
Upon his arrival, a commotion broke out amongst the many people on the platform. Their gazes were flashing with terror, admiration, anxiety, and jealousy.
The person who had just arrived was Sean, the Eldest Martial brother from the Radiant Cult, which was the top faction amongst the many in the Valley Alliance. Next to him were the Elders, leaders, and other people from the other major factions. They could be said to have the strongest battle prowess in the entire Horned Frogs Valley.
The Ice Palace’s Priestess had her eyes agape, as if stars were bursting out of them. She stared at Sean and said, “Eldest Martial Brother Sean really has a good disposition.
“Ever since the Cult Master of the Radiant Cult went into seclusion, Eldest Martial Brother Sean has led the entire Valley Alliance and the Radiant Cult. He will probably become the new Cult Master of the Radiant Cult in another few years.
Seeing Sean’s arrival, a hint of helplessness flashed in the Blood Kaiser’s eyes.
The Radiant Cult was the top dog in the Valley Alliance, possessing ownership of over half of the territory in the Valley Alliance. In the sect, there were the Cult Master, Elder, and the Eldest Martial Brother Sean, making up a total of three second transition experts.
Even Sean was a second transition level 24 expert. He was even stronger than the Blood Kaiser.
