Chapter 559 - 557: Han Qing’s Defense

Chapter 559: Chapter 557: Han Qing’s Defense

The enemy was strong, but they were fearless.

Whether or not they could defend the summit, they would only know by fighting!

Youu stood behind Jiang Jichen, like a shadow.

Little Gray stood to the side, dragging his Big Bone Saber.

That scoundrel Han Qing smirked arrogantly. "Brothers! Sisters-in-law! With Master Han here, you have nothing to fear. The enemy is doomed to fail."

Tang Han and the others immediately rolled their eyes, not believing a single word.

Su Xuefei, Shui Yunyao, and the other women had to fight the very unladylike urge to lift a foot and stamp a boot print on Han Qing’s big mouth.

Sisters-in-law?

Who’s your sister-in-law?

’He makes it sound like we’re Jiang Jichen’s women.’

However, with a hundred experts from the Six Realms about to charge, they couldn’t be bothered to argue with him.

Instead, Jiang Jichen’s voice cut through. "Han Qing, you’re at the front. Activate the defense. Little Gray and I will be right behind you. The rest of you, stay behind us. Don’t force an attack; wait for an opening."

’With so many allies, Jiang Jichen naturally had to make the most of their combined strength.’

’He wasn’t foolish enough to try and play the hero all by himself again.’

’For Jiang Jichen, taking a peak was best done with fewer people, but defending one? The more, the merrier.’

Naturally, no one in the group would refuse Jiang Jichen’s orders.

Just moments ago, while standing on the giant summit, they had overheard the crowd discussing Jiang Jichen. They now knew of his terrifying accomplishments since entering the Six Paths Illusion Realm.

Annihilating the Poison Devouring Sect, establishing the Luochen Sect, becoming the seventh power in Chaotic City... it was truly badass.

It was a far cry from their own situation, living under someone else’s thumb, suffering oppression and bullying.

’Thinking about it now, only by following Jiang Jichen could they live freely and contentedly.’

’No longer would they have to put up with the pent-up frustration they’d felt before.’

"Jiang Jichen, if you’re willing to get the hell off this summit on your own, we won’t make things difficult for you!"

A hundred experts from the Six Paths Realm drifted down to land on the edge of the summit, and their leader spoke with cold indifference.

The truth was, even though they dared to attack together, they were still deeply wary of Jiang Jichen.

After all, ever since his appearance, Jiang Jichen had been overwhelmingly powerful, projecting a truly invincible aura.

Even though he was now injured, his power depleted, and he appeared weak.

But even an injured tiger inspired fear.

Therefore, it would be best if they could make Jiang Jichen retreat without a fight.

Before Jiang Jichen could reply, Han Qing’s big mouth was already running.

Standing at the very front, he did cut a rather imposing figure. His voice boomed, "How audacious! You see Master Han before you, yet you don’t come and kneel!"

"You dare tell Master Han’s boss to get off the mountain? Master Han is very angry now. You’re in big trouble!"

As Han Qing bellowed, everyone around who heard him was left speechless.

’They couldn’t believe someone so shameless and arrogant could even exist.’

’He was obviously just borrowing Jiang Jichen’s prestige to show off.’

Even the Two Beauties of Yunshui, Blood Hand, Qing Xun, and Tang Han thought Han Qing was just a fox borrowing the tiger’s might.

This was also Little Haas’s favorite pastime.

Upon hearing Han Qing’s words, he felt as though he had found a kindred spirit.

Besides, he also wanted to show off in front of Alice, the strong, dark-skinned female cultivator.

Although Alice was a married woman, Little Haas just couldn’t help but like her strength, her full bust, and her plump rear.

Little Haas excitedly chimed in, "That’s right, you’re in deep trouble now! How dare you speak my boss’s name directly! You’re not worthy! Scram, or else when Master Guo goes on a rampage, even I’ll be scared of myself!"

Listening to the two of them, the crowd was once again rendered speechless.

’What kind of people did Jiang Jichen surround himself with?’

’Their arrogance knew no bounds!’

’And they were such incredible braggarts!’

But Little Gray, Jiang Jichen, and Youu knew Han Qing wasn’t just riding his coattails. He had just finished refining a Black Tortoise Pearl, and his confidence was swelling to epic proportions. The man was bursting with pride.

"Huh? Didn’t think the boss had a kindred spirit under him. Guo Qishan, is it? Master Han has heard of you. Very good. From now on, you’re my subordinate. I’ll have your back, haha..."

After he spoke, Han Qing let out a wild, grating laugh.

Everyone: "..."

Little Haas: "..."

Little Haas, of course, was the most speechless of all. He had somehow, for no reason, just become Han Qing’s subordinate.

’Still, he had to admire someone like Han Qing, who could be so arrogant in the face of countless enemies.’

’Little Haas, you must make Master Han your role model! Work hard! Get hyped! Become the master’s most arrogant subordinate in the face of the enemy!’

’Only by being arrogant enough can you crush the enemy’s morale and intimidate them all! Yes, Little Haas, you can do it!’

Little Haas now had a new goal in his heart, and he silently cheered himself on.

Jiang Jichen had heard enough. He kicked Han Qing from behind. "Master Han, for fuck’s sake, stop posturing!"

BOOM!

Jiang Jichen kicked Han Qing aside. Right where he had been standing, a terrifying bolt of lightning struck down.

"Shit!"

Han Qing cursed, grimacing.

His defense hadn’t been activated yet.

After all, activating a defense also consumed energy.

Among the experts from the Six Paths Realm was one who specialized in lightning. With Han Qing standing at the very front, he was perfectly within range and had naturally become the target.

Though Jiang Jichen had kicked him away in time, he was still grazed by the edge of the lightning strike, which sent a tingly, numbing jolt through his body.

"See, Master Han? I told you to stop posturing! Now you’ve literally gotten struck by lightning!"

Tang Han, Suotu, the Bald Man, and the others roared with laughter, delighting in his misfortune.

But it served to lighten the heavy atmosphere.

Han Qing, however, felt he had lost face completely. He roared in anger, "So! You dare sneak attack Master Han? You got a death wish?!"

As he spoke, an earthy-yellow pearl materialized before him. Within it, the shadow of an ancient Black Tortoise was faintly visible.

Simultaneously, a web of earthy-yellow Spiritual Patterns spread out like a canopy, shielding everyone.

Black Tortoise Defense!

This display stunned quite a few people.

Just then, the hundred-plus experts from the Six Paths Realm charged, unleashing their terrifying Ultimate Killing Techniques and bombarding them from afar.

BOOM!

A terrifying barrage of Ultimate Kill attacks descended, completely engulfing Han Qing, Jiang Jichen, Little Gray, and Youu at the front.

However, the Black Tortoise Pearl before Han Qing suddenly flashed. The Black Tortoise within it charged out, transforming into a massive, illusory phantom of a Black Tortoise that shielded them.

The earthy-yellow curtain of light wavered violently, on the verge of shattering.

But to everyone’s shock, Han Qing’s defensive light had actually withstood the combined assault from all the masters of the Six Paths Realm.

This left the attackers momentarily stunned, unable to believe what they were seeing.

SCHLICK!

SCHLICK!

SCHLICK!

...

However, in the instant they were stunned into a daze, a man and a skeleton had suddenly appeared in their midst.

With every swing of the Big Bone Saber in Little Skeleton’s hands, a life was reaped.

As for the man, he wielded the Holy Sword, swinging it with abandon. Heads, torsos, and limbs flew into the air as blood splattered across the battlefield.

Wherever they passed, no one was spared. By the time the others reacted, they had already insta-killed twenty men!
