Chapter 708 - Evil God Zhong, How Dare You Ploys On Me! (1/2)
During the battle with Xuan Xue, she had cast a terrific skill which was known as the [Five Elemental Sealing Stamp]. It was a Creator-level skill that bestowed her with overwhelming power at the cost of nearly all of her arcane energy.
It was the final trump card she prepared for the finals, but Xuan Xue was too strong and she was forced to use it now lest she be disqualified before even making it to the finals.
She furtively glanced over at Zhong Yue and found him standing unwaveringly on the index finger. Immediately, her heart sank and grew heavy.
The more magnanimous he appeared, the more uneasy she grew of him. Zhong Yue saw her [Five Elemental Sealing Stamp] yet showed no signs of worry, something that clearly suggested that he was not afraid.
A few moments later, Zheng Yan had replenished her depleted arcane energy. She stood up and bowed, "Thank you, senior martial brother, I am grateful for your generosity. Evil God Zhong of the Prison Realm isn't really that nefarious and evil at all. I was told that the Prison Realm is a place full of pugnacious ruffians, the Qi Practitioners are selected with the number of competitors they've killed. You people cut down your competitor's head and the more heads you have in hands, the stronger you are. And I heard that Evil God Zhong has the most heads, over two thousand. I was still a little nervous when I saw you, afraid that you'd be some sort of devils with horns. But it seems like the rumors are not true at all."
Zhong Yue returned the bow and replied gently, "Rumors are just that, they shouldn't be treated as gospel."
Zheng Yan heaved a breath of relief and smiled, "They even said you beheaded a reincarnated emperor and hung his head on your waist! I believe senior martial brother would never do something so heinous as that!"
An awkward expression flashed past Zhong Yue's face and Zheng Yan's heart skipped a beat, she exclaimed in shock, "Senior martial brother really did that?"
Zhong Yue gave a dry laugh and said, "I had no choice...."
Zheng Yan was shocked, she quickly asked again, "Then about the over two thousand Qi Practitioners you've killed…"
"That's true." Zhong Yue answered solemnly, "But I never hung their heads on my waist, that was nothing but pure lies."
Zheng Yan's face turned pale as she looked at him. In an instant, Zhong Yue's image in her eyes turned from a polite gentleman into an evil and wicked devil. She thought, You didn't hang their heads on your waist because your waist is not big enough to fit them all, right….
She now believed the rumors. The Prison Realm was no place for the weak and for a human like him to be crowned as the Evil God Zhong by the pugnacious ruffians, it just went to show how terrifying this young human was!
I heard that on his first day here, he killed the Qi Practitioner that represented the Heaven Realm… Zheng Yan's heart thumped heavily and she grew incredibly nervous.
Zhong Yue gave a warm smile, he said, "Senior Martial Sister Zheng Yan, can we discuss the possibility that if I defeat you…"
"You'll take down my head and hang it on your waist?" The young lady questioned fearfully.
Zhong Yue quickly shook, "No, that's what I meant, I'm not a terrible man. I mean, can you…"
"No, I'm not marrying you!" Zheng Yan quickly shook, "Not your wife, not your mistress, or your side piece! No coupling, no marriage, no love, no proposal! Nothing!"
Zhong Yue was dumbstruck, he hadn't even finished talking and the young lady was making so many assumptions already.
He waited for Zheng Yan to finish before faking a cough and continuing, "I mean, can we talk? If you can teach me your technique of reversing the prenate state into innate, then I can teach you some things as well, including a complete Creator-level cultivation technique."
Zheng Yan heaved a long breath, she asked dubiously, "Are you sure that's it?"
Zhong Yue shook, "Yes. Don't worry, I'm asking this for two other ladies. In fact, your cultivation technique of reversing the prenate and innate states is useless to me."
"Can't tell that you are such a playboy," Zheng Yan eased her heart, she looked at him and laughed, "But we are of the same strength. I have cultivated the five types of Innate True Spirit and possess the Creator-level skill. Even Senior Martial Sister Xuan Xue is no match to me, so how are you so sure that you'd win? Fine, if you can actually defeat me, then I will teach you the way of reverse the innate and prenate states. But what if I'm the winner?"
Zhong Yue laughed helplessly, "Young girl, you think too much."
Zheng Yan was infuriated, "If I win, if I win…"
She thought for a moment and finally, she said, "Then you will teach me that complete Creator-level cultivation technique you speak of, while I don't have to teach you anything!"
Zhong Yue nodded and said casually, "Deal. Senior Martial Sister Zheng Yan, I will allow you to make the first move. But spare me the parlour tricks. You may use your Creator-level skill directly."
Zheng Yan laughed, "That is my ultimate move. It depletes my arcane energy and if you dodge it, then I'd be defeated for sure. I hear that you are a Sun Moon Twin Spirit Innate Body, while I am half a Five Elemental Innate Spirit Body. Thus, I very much like to know which of the two innate spirit bodies is stronger."
She raised her hand and thousands of Gold Sword Qi sized like needles were shot toward Zhong Yue.
Zhong Yue clenched on the saber hilt and pulled it an inch out of the sheath. Immediately, Zheng Yan felt the saber will billowing over, seeping through her skill and lunged at her directly.
Zhong Yue's saber followed wherever the saber went. If his saber will were to reach to her body, the saber would be able to kill her in an instant!
Zheng Yan quickly stepped back and changed her skill. The countless Gold Sword Qi morphed into the Wood Sword Qi and formed a barrier of trees. The saber will was stopped and the leaves from the tress were shot out at Zhong Yue.
