Chapter 570 (1/2)
”Is it really alright for us to not make a move?” Mu Wuyu and Mu Huiyu simultaneously turned their heads back.
Xuanle Feifei's delicate finger twirled a lock of her black hair. She looked at the chaotic battlefield. The Prehistoric Liao Emperor Yelü Hui's abrupt rebirth indeed made Fairy Xuanle quite surprised. Just how powerful the legendary Transforming Star of Annihilation Realm was, Xuanle Feifei did not know, but she nevertheless could discern that the Yelü Hui, Wuyan Guang and He Chongbao before her eyes absolutely were not as simple as Transforming Star of Annihilation Stage.
That sort of feeling was just like…a Star General.
”We are not a match.” Xuanle Feifei shook her head. Although she was unwilling, it was necessary to concede this fact in front of them.
The number one martial general Wuyan Guang's martial arts were outstanding. Even the Mu Assassins would be hard-pressed to find an advantage in close range, and that Yelü Gui and He Chongbao watched like tigers. A rash attack would instead ruin their lives. To be able to shine above the rest in the Star Duels, what Xuanle Feifei relied on was precisely her shrewd ability to evaluate the situation. Let alone… ”Let alone that only Chao Gai is capable of handling this Liao Emperor, perhaps even she is no match. This Fairy wonders what that Maiden Mountain will do. We are no more than Traces of True Spirit, and we have our own mission. For now, we shall monitor the situation…” Xuanle Feifei emotionlessly said.
Mu Wuyu and Mu Huiyu were a bit reluctant.
Xuanle Feifei turned her head back to Mu Qingying and Mu Duiying, saying: ”Both of you sisters watch carefully. This is an extremely rare opportunity. As assassins, the most important thing is to completely understand the capabilities of your assassination target. When the Three Territories' Star Masters make their move, the victor will inevitably be king. If you can grasp their combat details, this will be an absolute help in your future assassinations.”
Bing Qingxuan cupped his fist and reverently thanked her.
”Was Chao Gai not admonishing us to not meddle in others' business? Why not listen to her this time…” Xuanle Feifei ruthlessly smiled.
The Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Thousand Pagoda appeared, radiating Buddhist light, temporarily suppressing the arrogance of both sides.
Very quickly, a beautiful girl appeared in the yellow light.
She was none other than Thousand Buddha Star Chao Gai.
”Yelü Hui! If you meddle in the Star Duels, This One absolutely will not tolerate you. Quickly stop this at once!” Chao Gai's tone was strict.
On Wu Xinjie's side, Blue Faced Beast Yang Zijin had already withdrawn to Grandfather Li's side to guard him. Wu Xinjie had been knocked back by the power of Yelü Hui's exchange with Emperor Liang and the others, stopping for the moment. Upon seeing Chao Gai appear, Wu Xinjie was not surprised. In fact, even though Long Nü did not attract her attention, hearing Chao Gai's words, the Knowledge Star still felt a slight change take place.
Chao Gai apparently was familiar with the Liao Emperor Yelü Hui. At least, she knew of her existence. Her seemingly strict tone nevertheless hid slight astonishment.
”Who are you, to unexpectedly dare command the Great King.” Wuyan Guang snorted disdainfully, absolutely not placing the Thousand Buddha Star in her eyes. She raised her spear and attacked.
The Thousand Pagoda's profound light flooded, filling the heavens as a giant net that twisted towards Wuyan Guang.
Wuyan Guang violently slashed, yet this was not as relaxed as before. The layers of Buddhist light were like a bog, wrapping around her whole body, preventing her from displaying her full power. The Great Liao's number one martial general was shocked. She knew then that this Chao Gai was powerful. In realm, she was on par, maybe even a level higher than herself.
”As expected, Maiden Mountain has also come.” Wuyan Guang laughed, springing upwards.
The spear slashed a ray of light like a galaxy. This magnificent light ray directly slashed. Cultivators in its way were torn to shreds before they could even react. The light extended to the ends of the Crystal Dragon Palace and slammed into the barrier with a rumble.
Chao Gai formed a hand seal. The Thousand Pagoda shot out a ray of yellow light that wrapped around Wuyan Guang and tried to absorb her into the pagoda.
He Chongbao read an incantation and used Star Magic. A hundred dazzling runes soared about. The twelve blood shadows became seventy-two blood-fiends in a split second. These blood-fiends were dreadful. Cultivators that so much as touched these blood-fiends were dead with no body left behind in an instant. The seventy-two blood fiends devoured the yellow light and freed Wuyan Guang. Then, the blood-light enveloping the Crystal Dragon Palace attacked Chao Gai.
Waves of blood rolled along the way, fiendish qi surged. Even the Supervoid Cultivators took a few steps back in fear, feeling terrified of the He Chongbao who killed as if human life was like grass.
Chao Gai's long hair fluttered. Her hair then turned into a golden color, each strand radiating Buddhist light.1 A Star Crest appeared on Chao Gai's forehead, and the Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Thousand Pagoda hovered above Chao Gai's head, releasing unending light. This brilliant Buddhist magic split off into one hundred and forty-four rays of yellow light. Every two rays each seized one blood-fiend. The seventy-two blood fiends surrounded Chao Gai, yet they were unable to advance one single step.
He Chongbao added more magic energy and battled against Chao Gai's magic.
The others were unable to interfere.
”Chao Gai, This King asks you, just what are these Star Duels?” Yelü Hui leisurely asked at this moment. ”Why descend into this realm? Could it be because of This King?”
”You are Yelü Wuxin?”2 Chao Gai was awe-inspiring.
”You know This King's True Name, huh.” Yelü Wuxin was slightly surprised.
”How could This One not know. Of Star World's millions of Star Names, your Northern Liao is considered tyrannical. A thousand years ago, a member of the imperial family named Yelü Wuxin suffered defeat. Afterwards, she took the number one great general Wuyan Qin3 and the national scholar He Bao'er4 and disappeared without a trace. Legend said that they fell to a lower realm…It seems that was true.”
”This lower realm is actually very interesting.” Yelü Wuxin did not change her expression.
”No wonder Liangshan Continent's hundred Supervoid Cultivators were all unable to kill you.” Chao Gai sneered.
”Is Star World Empress still that little girl? Chao Gai, you command one hundred and eight Star Generals. You are not managing those Four Great Female Traitor Ministers, yet here you are in Liangshan Continent playing some Star Duels game. What sort of farce are you putting on here?” Yelü Wuxin thoughtfully asked.
Chao Gai did not say anything. She fired off killing intent. ”This One shall ask you once more. Immediately stop interfering with the Star Duels, otherwise there will be no end to your troubles.”
”No end to my troubles? This King is aware that you all came down from Maiden Mountain. This King just happens to want to properly appreciate you.” Yelü Wuxin tore apart her friendliness and suddenly read an incantation. Her body bubbled with an overwhelming qi. This qi rolled with resplendent golden light, vaguely assuming the form of a True Dragon, no different from Emperor Liang's True Dragon Imperial Qi.
”True Dragon Qi?” Emperor Liang took in a deep breath.
It was no wonder that while she was in the Along The River During Qingming, using the True Dragon Imperial Qi for a thousand years was unable to refine away the Liao Emperor. As it turned out, she was also of the True Dragon bloodline and similarly refined the True Dragon like Emperor Liang did.
