Chapter 855 - 851: Wanting to Kill (2)

Chapter 855: Chapter 851: Wanting to Kill (2)

Xing Qing revealed a cold smile: "I’m causing trouble for you, not letting you complete the ritual smoothly."

Xing Qing didn’t hide anything, straightforwardly stating her purpose.

She came here to disrupt the proceedings.

The main goal was to prevent the Emperor of Da Li from completing the ritual smoothly.

Xing Qing knew well that she couldn’t really do anything to the Emperor of Da Li.

Her main objective was to annoy the Emperor of Da Li.

"And then?" the Emperor of Da Li coldly asked Xing Qing.

Xing Qing pointed to Xing Wu beside her and slowly said: "A duel.

Didn’t you choose some people for the ritual?

Let them duel with Xing Wu.

If you lose, then stop proceeding with the ritual.

If we lose, you can continue with the ritual, and we will not interfere."

Xing Qing’s actions had two purposes, the first was to irritate the Emperor of Da Li.

The second purpose was to train Xing Wu.

Xing Wu learned a lot from losing to Mo Lin last time and has significantly improved his skills since.

That’s why Xing Qing proposed another duel.

Xing Wu’s gaze scanned the few people in front of him, quickly locking onto Mo Lin.

Among this group, he most wanted to duel Mo Lin.

After losing to Mo Lin last time, Xing Wu has been unwilling to accept it and wants to seize the chance for another duel.

"Do you agree?" Xing Qing asked the Emperor of Da Li.

"Alright." The Emperor of Da Li agreed without hesitation.

Then he addressed Jiang Kun and Mo Lin and others, saying: "Whoever can win will be rewarded with five Immortal Coins."

The moment they heard about the five Immortal Coins, everyone present was eager to try.

They couldn’t wait to defeat Xing Wu and claim the five Immortal Coins.

Xing Qing waved at Mo Lin, signaling him to come out and fight.

Just as Mo Lin took a step forward, a man waved his hand and stopped him.

"I’ll go first." Zhang Qiang blocked Mo Lin, preventing him from making a move.

He was worried that Mo Lin would take away his five Immortal Coins.

Mo Lin remained expressionless, stepping back to make way for Zhang Qiang.

Zhang Qiang dashed out like an arrow, with six streams of pure-colored Immortal Qi emerging behind him.

With his current strength, he was one of the top-tier figures in the entire South District.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been selected to participate in the ritual ceremony.

As soon as Zhang Qiang made his move, Xing Wu attacked as well.

The two engaged in a fight.

Even though Zhang Qiang possessed six streams of pure-colored Immortal Qi, he didn’t gain any advantage against Xing Wu.

He even seemed to be on the verge of defeat.

After exchanging dozens of moves, Zhang Qiang even used Immortal Techniques.

Yet he still couldn’t match Xing Wu and soon lost.

Xing Wu didn’t even have to use his trump card to win.

One after another, more people came forward to face off against Xing Wu.

Indeed, Xing Wu displayed quite some strength.

He defeated five people single-handedly without being affected at all.

Jiang Kun hadn’t made a move yet, standing with his arms crossed, continuously assessing Xing Wu’s strength.

Finally, the sixth person was defeated.

Xing Wu defeated six people alone.

In the distance, the Emperor of Da Li’s expression grew increasingly grim.

A hint of displeasure appeared on his otherwise calm face.

If Mo Lin and Jiang Kun both lose, that would be troublesome.

Feeling the timing was right, Mo Lin finally prepared to make a move once more.

A scene similar to before unfolded once again.

As Mo Lin stepped forward, Jiang Kun’s voice came from behind.

"Stop... Did I let you make a move?" Jiang Kun harshly rebuked Mo Lin in a cold tone.

He was the second most powerful person in the Jingming Daoism, second only to Xu Zang.

The second strongest among the contemporary disciples of Jingming Daoism.

Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been arranged to attend the ritual ceremony.

Mo Lin’s brow furrowed slightly, sensing the animosity in Jiang Kun’s tone.

Jiang Kun approached Mo Lin’s side, pushed him aside with a wave of his hand, and coldly said: "Step aside."

Mo Lin, about to make a move, was stopped once again.

Jiang Kun stepped up to face Xing Wu.

Their battle was indeed a spectacle to watch.

Jiang Kun attacked, using Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship against Xing Wu.

Jiang Kun himself even condensed seven streams of pure-colored Immortal Qi.

Before the appearance of Immortal Coins, few people could condense pure-colored Immortal Qi.

Now that Immortal Coins emerged, more people were able to condense pure-colored Immortal Qi.

After all, as long as you have Immortal Coins, you can cultivate.

In Mo Lin’s view, Jiang Kun’s Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship appeared crude.

Moreover, the swordsmanship was not the complete version of Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship; it was a patched-up version.

Inferior to the Jingming Evil-slaying Swordsmanship Mo Lin once possessed.

Jiang Kun not only had Evil-slaying Swordsmanship.

He also possessed an Upper Nine Streams Immortal Technique.

Before Xing Wu utilizes the power of Xingtian, he was no match for Jiang Kun.

He was falling into a disadvantageous position.

Before coming here, Xingtian had already instructed Xingwu not to use Xingtian’s power.

Helplessly, Xingwu could only accept defeat.

Jiang Kun defeated Xingwu, his face brimming with a smug smile.

"I’ve heard the Xing Family’s strength rivals the entire Da Li dynasty.

But it seems it’s nothing much after all."

Upon hearing this taunting remark, a hint of killing intent surged in Xingwu’s eyes.

Seeing Jiang Kun’s petty face, he felt a wave of disgust in his heart.

"What’s wrong? Still want a showdown?

I could beat you once, I can beat you a second time." Jiang Kun snorted coldly at Xingwu.

Xingwu glanced at Xingtian, but without a signal, he helplessly retreated and said nothing.

Mo Lin remained silent throughout.

Defeating Xingwu rewards five Immortal Coins.

These five Immortal Coins are dispensable to Mo Lin.

Not having them wouldn’t be a loss, having them slightly boosts his strength.

That’s all.

The Emperor of Da Li immediately rewarded Jiang Kun with five Immortal Coins.

Jiang Kun couldn’t be happier to receive the prize.

He felt like he was floating on cloud nine.

As if defeating Xingwu meant no one among the younger generation could challenge him.

Jiang Kun threw a provocative glance at Mo Lin.

"You seem quite ordinary too.

The spectacle Jingming Daoism made to deal with you seems like overkill, doesn’t it?"

Mo Lin frowned slightly, hearing some key words in this statement.

Dealing with Mo Lin? Spectacle?

"Mr. Cui captured Gen Family Business just to deal with you, but it seems completely unnecessary."

These words immediately triggered Mo Lin’s youthful rage.

Mo Lin’s brow furrowed, a touch of killing intent surged in his eyes.

Jiang Kun realized he had said something he shouldn’t have, yet he didn’t think it would matter.

After all, today was the sacrificial ceremony, moreover the Emperor of Da Li was present.

No matter how arrogant Mo Lin was, he wouldn’t provoke the Emperor’s authority, right?

Even if Xing Family Business were here, they wouldn’t make any extreme moves.

They simply suggested a martial fight.

"What did you say?" Mo Lin’s tone was deep.

That sense of calm vanished instantly.

From the words, one could even feel the fury in Mo Lin’s chest.

"Didn’t hear?"

Jiang Kun purposely raised his voice again: "Gen Family Business was captured by our Jingming Daoism.

Not just captured, but his entire cultivation was abolished.

Now he’s merely a cripple."

Mo Lin instinctively clenched his fists, staring at Jiang Kun coldly as if he were looking at a dead man.

"I never initiated trouble with you.

Why does your Jingming Daoism repeatedly cause trouble for me?"

That’s right, Mo Lin never actively sought trouble.

Even before Jiang Kun mentioned these things, Mo Lin hadn’t intended to take action against Jiang Kun.

What made Jingming Daoism so aggressive?

Why did they repeatedly target Mo Lin?

"Are you truly foolish, or pretending to be?

Getting the ancestral heritage was a mistake.

Feigning ignorance with understanding.

If you’d handed over the ancestral heritage earlier, we wouldn’t be giving you trouble." Jiang Kun said disdainfully.

"My mistake?" Mo Lin’s face was filled with intensified killing intent.

"Otherwise?"

Jiang Kun said again: "If you had handed over the ancestral heritage earlier.

We wouldn’t have captured Gen Family Business, nor would we have abolished his cultivation."

"I heard Gen Family Business paid a significant price for the Water God’s power.

His entire strength was wasted.

What a pity."

"Gen Family Business falling to this state is all your fault."

Jiang Kun deliberately raised his voice while speaking.

Just to disgust Mo Lin.

Finally, Mo Lin couldn’t hold back anymore.

Mo Lin raised his hand, a golden long sword flew out, slashing towards Jiang Kun.

Cui Xinyun’s pupils constricted sharply seeing this scene.

Today was the sacrificial ceremony of the Da Li dynasty.

The Emperor of Da Li would absolutely not allow anyone to cause trouble.

Nor permit bloodshed.

Sure enough, the instant Mo Lin took action, the reprimand of the Emperor of Da Li was heard.

"Stop!"

Like thunder, it emitted a terrifying pressure.

As the Emperor of Da Li’s voice fell.

The golden dragon circling in the sky slowly lowered its head, its gaze fixed on Mo Lin.
