Chapter 2374: Sowing Discord (1/2)
Even Dou Rui, a peak First Heaven True Saint expert, was having a hard time holding up against Tan Juan.
Vigorous devil qi surged around Dou Rui, wrapping around him like a world of devils, but no matter how alarming his devil qi was, he failed to get close to Tan Juan. Snow spiraled around Tan Juan, forming curtains of icy layers, and no matter how aggressive Dou Rui’s devil qi was, once his devil qi came into contact with the curtains of ice, it was immediately frozen into icicles.
In contrast, Tan Juan’s snow force continued to invade Dou Rui’s world of devils, slashing and cutting Dou Rui’s body. There was already a large number of small icicles accumulated on the surface of his body, slowing down his reaction speed.
“Senior Sister Ji Xinyi!” Lin Xiaoying called out from afar as she arrived with Huang Xiaolong and the others.
Ji Xinyi and other Clear Snow Palace’s female disciples, as well as the many experts present, turned to look in Lin Xiaoying’s direction.
“Junior Sister Lin Xiaoying!” Ji Xinyi rejoiced.
Both Lin Xiaoying and Ji Xinyi hurried to regroup.
However, most of these experts’ gaze looked past Lin Xiaoying, falling on Huang Xiaolong, who was some distance behind Lin Xiaoying.
More accurately, they were looking at Huang Xiaolong’s mount, the Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast.
“Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast!” Someone’s delighted exclamation sounded.
Huang Xiaolong’s gaze moved, and he saw that the person, who had shouted in delight, was the Beast Tamer Holy Gate’s Yu Fujiang!
Huang Xiaolong’s eyes narrowed, seeing that his ‘old friend’ Yu Fujiang was also here. At the Holy Heavens City, Yu Fujiang had first tried to snatch his Nine Colored Fox Phoenix, and then oppressed Feng Tianyu, Zhang Wenyue, and Xue Qi at the Heavenly Fragrance Teahouse.
Each of these accounts were clearly listed in Huang Xiaolong’s mind.
On the other hand, Huang Xiaolong hadn’t expected to see that apart from the Beast Tamer Holy Gate’s experts, the True Reason Holy Gate’s True Reason Saint Fan Xia and Qianyuan Holy Gate’s Feng Cheng were also in Yu Fujiang’s group.
Some years back, Huang Xiaolong had requested the Holy Heavens’ Grand Hall Master Wu Ge to slightly suppress the True Reason Holy Gate and Qianyuan Holy Gate as a small favor to him. Judging from this situation, it seemed that the True Reason Holy Gate and Qianyuan Holy Gate had grabbed onto the Holy Lands Alliance’s big thighs [1].
The moment Yu Fujiang’s words fell, more than a dozen figures whizzed across the air, straight at Huang Xiaolong with the intention of snatching the Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast Huang Xiaolong was riding on.
But these people had yet to get close when the Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast’s mouth opened and let out a resounding roar. The sound waves blasted across space, disrupting the Profound River’s layers of aircurrents. Heaven and earth seemed to be overturned.
Those dozen people were suddenly sent flying in the opposite direction, crashing to the distant ground as blood flowed from their orifices. It seemed like the Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast’s soundwave-attack from that roar had served them with a great deal of damage.
The Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast was a holy beast at a peak Ninth Tribulation half-True Saint realm. Then how could those experts withstand its attack especially when it had used its innate roaring attack!
The Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast’s roar truly frightened other present experts. Yu Fujiang who had intended to join in the scuffle stopped abruptly midway, and cold sweat dampened his back.
Only now did he remember that this Dual-Pupiled Profound Beast was not some kitty cat.
Tan Juan, who had been fighting Dou Rui, suddenly exploded in force, and icy-blue palm force penetrated through the layers of devil qi, and slammed accurately on Dou Rui’s chest, sending Dou Rui reeling back.
With that, the fight between them came to an abrupt end.
Dou Rui’s pale face looked several shades worse. Just as Dou Rui wanted to catch up to Tan Juan again, he was stopped by Xie Bufan. Xie Bufan’s gaze was on Huang Xiaolong while he spoke to Dou Rui, “There is no hurry.”
In the meantime, Tan Juan had regrouped with others from Clear Snow Palace.
“Senior Sister Tan Juan!” Lin Xiaoying called out happily.
