Chapter 1147: Who Dares To Touch Ji Li (2/2)
This person's appearance was truly too unique. Although he was extremely skinny, his red crown was extremely eye-catching. Not only that, his thin and long face, as well as his tiny eyes, also attracted attention.
Feng Qigu immediately stopped in her tracks. She stared at this man and muttered in disbelief, ”Sage Huan Ti?”
”Hahahaha…” Huan Ti chuckled loudly. He only stopped after some time, ”I don't believe that someone still recognises this Huan Ti. I still thought that no one in this world remembered of Huan Ti.”
Apprehension flashed across Feng Qigu's eyes. Although she knew that Huan Ti was no longer a Sage, she still subconsciously retreated by a few meters. This was caused by the might of a Sage. She was a Throned God. However, the difference between her Dao Monarch God Throne and a Sage Throne wasn't so simple.
Fang Shiyu's eyes also went cold. He said with an ominous voice, ”Huan Ti, others might fear you but I, Fang Shiyu, don't.”
Fang Shiyu had the capabilities to say such word. Back then, his sword allowed him to be the strongest expert under the Sage Stage. It was just that he didn't have a God Throne.
If Huan Ti was still a Sage, he could only flee as far as he can. But now, Huan Ti wasn't even a Sage. There was no need to talk about a Sage, Huan Ti wasn't even a Great Circle Quasi-Sage.
Thus, Fang Shiyu was sure that Huan Ti currently wasn't a match for him.
A world's origin energy was definitely a first-class thing. However, in just a little over a hundred years, a good thing still wouldn't be enough for Huan Ti to recover his cultivation to the Great Circle of the Quasi-Sage Stage.
Huan Ti's face turned ugly. He used to be a Sage. He didn't think that Fang Shiyu, a person who never had a God Throne, would actually dare to challenge him. Moreover, the reality was that he really wasn't a match for Fang Shiyu now.
”If you, Fang Shiyu, are so amazing, then why don't you let me, Tong Ming, exchange some pointers with you.” Tong Ming snickered and entered the fray.
”You're still here?” After Fang Shiyu saw Tong Ming, the shock on his face was even greater than when he saw Huan Ti.
Fang Shiyu wasn't the only one that was shocked. All the cultivators in the surrounding also stared at Tong Ming in astonishment.
This was because Tong Ming was a Sage that was even older than Huan Ti. After he was schemed against those years ago, everyone thought that he was already buried in the dust. No one expected that Tong Ming hadn't died and was still living fine.
Tong Ming sneered, ”If you, Fang Shiyu, haven't died, how could I, Tong Ming?”
”Tong Ming, you are actually doing this for this girl? Those years ago, you were an expert at the pinnacle of the universe. The World-Ending Cataclysm is coming. Don't tell me that you are going to have a battle with me before it comes?” Fang Shiyu's face was unsightly. Before Tong Ming re-validated his Sage Dao, he, Fang Shiyu, didn't need to fear Tong Ming. However, he had just recovered his elemental energy and he didn't want to waste it on a battle with an expert like Tong Ming.
”Dao Friend Ji Li is Brother Mo's dao companion. If he comes, you, Fang Shiyu, wouldn't be able to bear the brunt of his anger.” Tong Ming chuckled.
”Haha, she's just a mere girl. I, Fang Shiyu, do want to see whether I can actually bear it.” Fang Shiyu laughed loudly. In the past, he was a supreme expert second only to the Sages. However, everyone was using this girl's dao companion to threaten him. Did they think that he, Fang Shiyu, was a herbivore that only ate grass?
”Brother Fang, I, Feng Qigu, will stand beside you. She's merely a little girl. Her name is Ji Li, right? I really do wish to touch her.”
After saying this, Feng Qigu turned and said, ”Various Dao Friends, Huan Ti has already lost his God Throne. There's no need to talk about the Sage Stage, he isn't even in the Great Circle of the Quasi-Sage Stage. In the future, after Brother Fang obtains a Sage Throne, those that stand by us now will be considered our comrades.”
In a short time, Feng Qigu had explained the situation clearly. It was true that Huan Ti used to be a Sage. But now, he was a phoenix without feathers. A single Fang Shiyu was enough to eat him up. Also, Tong Ming clearly wouldn't pit his life for Ji Li. With so many experts here, she only needed to pull in a few Quasi-Sages and she would be able to deal with them.
To Feng Qigu, it was far too easy to pull some people to her side. Here, there were those with God Thrones and those without. How many of them had dealings with her before? One must know that her Dao Monarch title was Golden Pool.
Indeed, after Feng Qigu said those words, multiple people instantly volunteered. Before the Cataclysm arrived, it was definitely a great opportunity to follow a potential Sage.
”Who dares to touch Ji Li!?” An ordinary looking young man with a halberd on his back descended from the sky.
”Wuji…” Ever since she was saved by Dao Monarch Yellow River, an impulse had been brewing in Ji Li's heart. This impulse finally exploded after it found its source. Ji Li didn't even think twice. With a single step, she landed in front of Mo Wuji and she pulled him into her embrace.
A warm and soft sensation assailed him. Mo Wuji was slightly stunned. What was with Ji Li?
