Chapter 678
By the time Chao Gai arrived at Seven Worthies Village, the two Overlords’ presences had thoroughly vanished. The ground still had traces of the battle, but it did not appear to be an intense on at all. Thousand Buddha Star Chao Wuhui’s heart sank. She held the Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Thousand Pagoda, covering her whole body in a stern air, radiant Buddhist light and chanted a scripture of nirvana.
Bang, bang, bang, bang.
Four figures abruptly descended from the sky, falling at different times. One of them fell as light as a feather. The one who drifted down was clearly the strongest.
When Chao Wuhui looked at these four, her expression changed.
“So you must be that Chao Gai, correct? Oh, you look quite strong.” The Buddhist woman named “Wu De” gripped her staff, coldly saying.
“Very strong, much stronger than those women from before. She should keep Niang’er entertained for a while.” Niang’er glanced with her flirty eyes, every single gesture of hers full of charm. She seemed to want to devour Chao Gai, as if she was hungry.
Shu’er mockingly smiled: “Shu’er will not be able to defeat this one. Not point in arguing with you two.”
“Xian, Liang,1 Shu, De! This One never imagined the Liao Emperor would surprisingly use the Heavenly Book to summon you.” Chao Wuhui’s face remained unchanged, but her fluctuating breath betrayed her astonishment and concern.
Sister Xian smiled and said: “Eh, you know of us?”
“No Matter The Time, Any Place Is Home.2 This is the renown of Her Highness Fang Moujia.3 Everyone in Star World knows.” Chao Wuhui thought to herself that this was problematic. These four women were much more troublesome than the Liao Emperor, especially this woman who was eternally smiling, as if conveying her kindness, but in actuality, this smile hid a dagger. And it was this dagger that made countless Star Generals in Star World afraid.
“If you know of Her Highness, then this will be much easier to manage.” Sister Xian nodded. “Since you know of Her Highness Moujia, then you ought to know what it means for us to appear her, Chao Gai. No matter what, these Star Duels are now finished.”
“Do the famous Four Great Generals Xiang, Liang, Shu, De of Her Highness Moujia intend to meddle with the Star Duels that Xuan Nü of Ninth Heaven arranged?” Chao Gai calmly said.
“Chao Gai, no need for you to pressure us with the name of the Xuan Nü of Ninth Heaven.” Sister Xian smiled and shook her head: “Since the Liao Emperor used the Three Heavenly Books to summon us to this lower realm, even the Xuan Nü of Ninth Heaven would not mind, let alone that this is the Xuan Nü of Ninth Heaven that Empress used her fate to summon.”
“Would you answer a question?”
Sister Xian asked.
Chao Gai knew what she wanted to ask.
“The Heavenly Spirits and Earthly Fiends of the 108 Star Maidens purportedly are the first Star Generals of Star World, but for what reason has that Empress arranged this world’s Star Duels? Could it be she actually believes she can reconvene the Heavenly Spirits and Earthly Fiends? To be able to defend the fate of the Great Song? Chao Gai, if you answer us, Her Highness shall allow you to join us.”
“You will have to ask Xuan Nü of Ninth Heaven this question.” Chao Gai said in a low voice.
Sister Xian shook her head.
“In fact, Her Highness was very aware you would not answer.”
“Yet you still ask?” Chao Gai coldly said.
Sister Xian showed a perfectly benevolent smile: “Your Servant was merely offering you a chance to live…”
What?
The woman’s figure flickered. Sword-light suddenly passed by. Chao Gai opened a Meditative Mind Lotus Flower, using the flower to defend. Without any warning, the flower has hacked to pieces. A blinding blood-light directly passed by Chao Gai’s body, sending Chao Wuhui flying. Sister Xian appeared at the place Chao Wuhui had been standing at, holding her sword of essence steel and blood-talismans in one hand. A bright flash lit up the broadsword.
Chao Wuhui was pale in the face. Her Eye Opening Precious Armor was astonishingly cut open by this attack. If it was not for her Meditative Mind Lotus Flower already greatly dampening the blow and protecting her, that would have left Chao Gai definitely heavily injured.
“Is that sword the ‘Phoenix Splitter?'” Chao Wuhui’s face was drained of color. “Wuhui has heard of that vile name. Apparently, it has slain countless True Phoenix Realm martial generals.”
“Perhaps it can kill the Thousand Buddha Star today.” Sister Xian smiled.
Immediately, the other three took action. Shu’er drew her enormous bow, firing a scorching hot arrow. This was the Dark Technique Sun Shooter. The Wu De woman raised her staff and swung at Chao Wuhui’s head. Niang’er gestured with her fingers, using a mysterious Star Magic in succession after the others.
Chao Wuhui grunted and smashed her palm towards De’er.
The moment staff and palm connected, Buddhist light glowed. Arhat, vajra, bodhisattva and other dharma characteristics arose from their exchange of blows. The Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Thousand Pagoda rose to smash Shu’er’s Sun Shooter Arrow. Then, the pagoda emitted a phantom, destroying Niang’er’s Star Magic.
How could Chao Gai’s Realm ever be compared to those Overlords from before.
She was able to suppress the teamwork of three people alone.
“De’er loves to kill Buddhas the most!!!” The overbearing, buxom woman’s left hand punched. The chains on her arm rattled, manifesting eerie blood-light like a spell.
This punch struck the Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Thousand Pagoda. The mighty pagoda rocked, astonishingly cracking a bit. Chao Gai formed a hand seal, and the Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Pagoda emitted light that bound De’er. However, this woman’s power was extremely strong. She could not be bound into the Thousand Pagoda, but Chao Gai managed to fling her away.
“Star Shatterer!!!”
Shu’er once again fired a Dark Technique.
The arrow left the bowstring.
The air immediately glinted with the light of a hundred arrows. These arrows were densely packed, filling the sky, as if they were stars. The arrow-lights fell, all of them shooting towards one person. Chao Wuhui opened the Meditative Mind Lotus Flower. Golden lotuses bubbled forth in her surroundings, protexting her.
Star Shatterer and the lotus flowers fell.
Star-lights flashed everywhere, and the lotus flower wilted.
“Hè.” The Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Thousand Pagoda attacked Shu’er. Golden light passed, but along the way, Niang’er’s powerful Star Magic repelled the Heaven Earth Dark Yellow Thousand Pagoda.
