Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 748 - 746: Dog-like Thing [First Update]
"You lost!"
Xiao Yi’s Zhan Yue rested on Hu Junyi’s neck, the cold blade’s radiance flickering with sharp, frosty light.
That keen edge didn’t even need to move; it had already left a sword mark on his throat.
Blood rolled down along the sword.
Glug!
Hu Junyi swallowed hard, his pupils contracted continually, his gaze shifting from the blade before him, then to Xiao Yi’s arm, and finally settling on Xiao Yi’s face.
He simply couldn’t imagine...
...that his own swordsmanship, of which he was so proud, would be defeated by Xiao Yi’s hands.
"I, I lost?"
Hu Junyi muttered to himself.
Xiao Yi shrugged his shoulders and said indifferently, "You lost!"
"I, I..."
Hu Junyi’s mouth trembled, and suddenly, his expression turned incredibly fierce. His eyes emitted a savage and resentful chill as he roared, "Impossible, I cannot possibly lose. I am the top external disciple of the Nantian Holy Institute, I am the future number one swordsman of the Nantian Dynasty. How could I possibly lose to you?"
Boom!
A black light circulated around Hu Junyi’s body as if black metal was enveloping him.
A silver holy sword suspended in the air behind him.
He grabbed the Vast Heaven Sword beside him and stabbed at Xiao Yi.
A sneak attack!
Everyone around them cried out in alarm.
Losing was not the end of the world!
But losing and not admitting it, then resorting to a sneak attack!
Even if Hu Junyi killed Xiao Yi, his reputation would be completely destroyed, and this would also become his Heart Demon.
Transforming into a chasm in his life that he could never cross!
"Hu Junyi’s path of the sword has been completely destroyed!" a mysterious young man said with a complex expression.
He had thought that Hu Junyi was certain to win.
But the outcome...
Hu Junyi was defeated by Xiao Yi’s hands, having lost the resilient heart of a swordsman, and had resorted to a sneak attack in a desperate bid to turn the tide.
Ye Ling looked at Xiao Yi with a complex expression and shook her head lightly, "Even though his heart of the sword is destroyed, with this sneak attack, Xiao Yi will at least be severely injured. For Hu Junyi, his sword path is indeed ruined, but he will still receive Nantian Wen’s rewards and favor. Such is fate for each and every action!"
"It’s just a pity that the Secret Technique that allows Xiao Yi to evolve the God Devouring Ants to form an army will now be lost forever..." the mysterious young man murmured.
In their eyes.
In the face of Hu Junyi’s sneak attack, Xiao Yi was surely beyond any chance of survival.
All of this seemed slow, but in reality, it all happened in the blink of an eye.
The cold sword radiance had already reached Xiao Yi’s chest.
The Vast Heaven Sword was an eighth-layer Yuan weapon, incredibly sharp, and once someone was injured by it, the wound would be extremely difficult to heal. Furthermore, the raging Sword Qi would invade the body, such that even a personage of the Longevity Secret Realm would have to pay a tremendous price to completely clear the raging Sword Qi from within their body.
"Go to hell!"
Hu Junyi, his face distorted with savagery, sneered with gritted teeth, "Even if it ruins my path of the sword, as long as I kill you I’ll gain the seventh-grade Longevity Essence. Once I step into the Longevity Secret Realm, who would dare to slight me? The victor becomes king, the loser is the bandit. As long as the goal is achieved, what does it matter how it’s done? Hahaha..."
However, Hu Junyi’s smile soon completely solidified on his face.
The Vast Heaven Sword fell upon Xiao Yi’s chest but did not make the sound of piercing flesh. Instead, there was a clear ding.
Looking up.
A blinding burst of fire shot out from Xiao Yi’s chest where it met with the Vast Heaven Sword, sparks scattering onto Hu Junyi’s face, yet he didn’t even blink.
He just stared dumbfounded at Xiao Yi, who was completely unharmed.
Glug!
Hu Junyi swallowed hard, his face a picture of bewilderment: "How, how, how is this possible..."
This was the Vast Heaven Sword, after all!
An eighth-layer Yuan weapon!
And under the circumstances of a sneak attack, it hadn’t even been able to break through Xiao Yi’s defenses?
Xiao Yi’s face darkened like coal, and he had not expected Hu Junyi to resort to a sneak attack. He shook his head in disappointment, I thought you were an opponent worth my attention, but it turns out you are just another piece of trash.
You, you...
Hu Junyi’s face turned pale as he saw the cold killing intent in Xiao Yi’s eyes.
Crack!
Xiao Yi slapped the Vast Heaven Sword out of his hand.
An eighth-layer Yuan weapon can recognize its master.
In the instant Hu Junyi launched his sneak attack on Xiao Yi, he had already lost the Vast Heaven Sword’s approval. The lackluster Vast Heaven Sword was knocked aside by Xiao Yi. His right hand reached out and grasped Hu Junyi’s neck, slowly lifting his body, while his eyes emanated unpredictable cold glints, You are not worthy to wield a sword!
No, you can’t kill me, I am a talent favored by His Majesty, if you kill me His Majesty won’t let you go... Hu Junyi desperately clutched Xiao Yi’s arms, struggling violently.
Xiao Yi said expressionlessly, Then let him come!
Crack!
With a squeeze of his five fingers, he crushed Hu Junyi’s throat.
Hu Junyi’s head slumped to the side and blood trickled down from the corner of his mouth.
His life was utterly extinguished!
Bang!
Xiao Yi flung Hu Junyi’s corpse aside with a wave of his hand. His icy gaze turned toward Ye Ling and the others, and for a moment, no one dared to meet his eyes.
Xiao Yi let out a cold laugh.
He collected the Vast Heaven Sword from the ground. The characteristic of Zhan Yue’s ability to devour Yuan weapons was not something that could be revealed in front of people, especially since advancing Zhan Yue to an eighth-layer Yuan weapon would not go unnoticed. Now was not the suitable time to elevate Zhan Yue to an eighth-layer Yuan weapon.
Does anyone else wish to make a move against me? Xiao Yi swept his gaze over the crowd and said softly.
Ye Ling: ...
The Mysterious Youngster: ...
The crowd: ...
With Hu Junyi just having died before their eyes, who would dare to act?
Even Ye Ling was merely on par with Hu Junyi, and though the mysterious young man’s strength was above Ye Ling’s, he had shown no intention of taking action from the beginning.
It seemed his goal in entering the Cloud Dream Temple was not Xiao Yi.
He naturally would not rashly take action.
Slowly retracting his gaze, Xiao Yi stated casually, If no one will make a move, then I shall take my leave first!
He then looked toward Yue Shanchuan and Chai Yi.
The two of them followed closely behind.
Wu Jian also followed them closely, and Xiao Yi turned back to look at him.
Wu Jian chuckled awkwardly, saying, Xiao... Xiao Yi boss, I’ve always looked up to you as the leader. You, the magnanimous one, surely won’t chase me away over such a trifle, right? If you really drive me away just because I didn’t listen to you just now, others will say you’re petty!
In Wu Jian’s view, Xiao Yi, considering his reputation, had no choice but to allow him to continue to follow them.
As long as he stayed with Xiao Yi, when it was time to divide the treasures, being part of the team, he would naturally get his share.
Xiao Yi glanced at him, observing all his expressions and seeing right through his thoughts.
Xiao Yi said indifferently, If you follow any further, I’ll butcher you!
You...
Wu Jian’s expression changed, not expecting Xiao Yi to reject his manipulation. His eyes turned sullen, and realizing Xiao Yi truly wouldn’t allow him to continue following, he gnashed his teeth and said, Fine, I may not follow you, but remember I was part of your team. Back at the Death Colosseum, no one was willing to support you; only I stood by you. I also have a share in the treasures obtained at Treasure Rock. Just give me what belongs to me, and I won’t bother you anymore!
Your share?
Xiao Yi laughed out of sheer anger.
How shameless can you be? Yue Shanchuan said darkly.
Chai Yi spoke coldly, Wu Jian, everything we achieved was thanks to Xiao Yi boss’s efforts. Plus, Xiao Yi boss told you not to rush for the treasures, and you wouldn’t listen. He generously helped lift the curse from you afterward, and instead of being thankful, you now dare demand the treasures? Your skin is thicker than that of an eighth-layer Yuan weapon armor!
Despite the ridicule from the others, Wu Jian remained unfazed and said coldly, Xiao Yi, just say whether you’ll give it or not!
I will... Xiao Yi turned back and replied.
Excitement flashed across Wu Jian’s face, but as a smile had just started to form, a sword glow slashed across his neck. Wu Jian’s face still bore a smile as his head rolled down, and Xiao Yi’s icy voice resonated in his ears, Take that, you son of a bitch... You dog-like creature, you dare threaten me?
