Chapter 165: A True Man

“Xiu!”

A peculiar whistle resounded out from the Manfaced Frostpid. Instantaneously, a layer of gust of white frost incessantly showered down over Wei Suo, appearing like a rain of icicles.

But at this instance, a sonorous clamour like a crashing river tide boomed out. Amidst the white mist, 8 regiments of violet divine sea glows abruptly dazzled out.

“PU!” Concurrently, it was as though an incorporeal ripple had ruptured Tian Fengzi’s head. “Ahh!” Curling up like a shrimp, Tian Fengzi clutched his head with both arms and released a miserably piercing scream.

“A Divine Sense assault! That’s a Divine Sense type skill technique!”

“Eight Divine Seas! He isn’t a Heavenly Circuit Stage level 2 cultivator, but a level 3 one! Moreover, he’s a cultivator that trains in stealth-type skill techniques!”

A clamorous uproar broke out within the entire Ironblood Temple at this moment. Even the previously conceited Dong Qingyi could only reveal a drastic change of expression.

“How is that possible! How did he train to Heavenly Circuit Stage level 3 so quickly?!” Li Honglin yelled out involuntarily.

“Oh?” While listening to Li Honglin’s yell, Xin Youlan gazed towards Wei Suo with a surreptitious smile; a countenance brimming with interest.

While Tian Fengzi was clutching his head and screaming, a black beam punctured out from the white mist and drilled a hole into the cyan centipede coiled around Tian Fengzi.

Within a flash, a bronze nail pierced through the hole and stabbed against that golden divine light screen covering Tian Fengzi.

Kacha! Although cracks surfaced on his divine light screen, it didn’t shatter and managed to withstand that bronze nail.

“What a pity!” Witnessing this scene, many spectating cultivators sighed with great regret.

Don’t mention about slaying Tian Fengzi, if the might of the bronze nail artifact was slightly greater, it would gravely wound him at the very least.

“Rascal, I’ll kill you!” Tian Fengzi howled with intensified anguish after recovering from his fit. Yet unexpectedly to everyone at this moment, another miniature needle actually propelled out from the tip of that stalled bronze nail! Hu! That mini needle thrusted through the light screen and drilled into Tian Fengzi’s chest!

A streak of blood spurted out!

Tian Fengzi’s cries abruptly ceased!

The spirit light emitted by the Cyan Centipede Banner dimmed as it fell from midair. Soon after, the menacing looking cyan centipede faded into oblivion.

Right now, every single cultivator could behold; though Tian Fengzi’s chest wound didn’t appear large, it was located right at his heart meridian.

Within a twinkling of an eye, a Heavenly Circuit Stage level 2 cultivator that reared a level 5 demonic beast was actually slain!

“Ding! Pa! Ding! Pa!”

Only at this instant, did the rain of icicles unleashed by the Manfaced Frostpid came crashing down.

“You dare to kill Tian Fengzi! Wei Suo, you’re dead meat! Our Golden Eagle Palace will definitely tear your corpse to shreds!” After being momentarily stunned from observing the lifeless Tian Fengzi, Li Honglin roared with ludicracy.

“So, by publically announcing to murder our inner sect disciple, does the Golden Eagle Palace wish to wage war with our Spirit Beast Palace? Do you think your palace is greater than mine? If that’s the case, then I wouldn’t mind taking the initiative to kill another two more from the Golden Eagle Palace.” Instead, Xin Youlan offered a sneer, causing Li Honglin to be utterly dumbstruck.

White icicles inches long in size continued pouring down like rain, exuberating a biting chill that instantly dispersed the permeating white mist.

As the mist dispersed, Wei Suo chose to ignore Li Honglin’s holler as he emotionlessly positioned his Scarlet Beetle Shield above his head; effortlessly shielding himself from the raining icicles. The biting chill encompassing him didn’t seem to affect him at all.

Scavenging alone within the predatory nature of the cultivation world ever since he was thirteen, Wei Suo’s natural disposition and actions undoubtedly emanated a lone wolf demeanor.

To cross hands with Tian Fengzi here meant he was officially fated to be at loggerheads with the Golden Eagle Palace. If there was an opportunity in the future, the Golden Eagle Palace would definitely not spare him. Under such circumstances, Wei Suo naturally opted to eliminate an elder class powerful character of the Golden Eagle Palace first.

“Screw this!”

Back at the audience stand, that macho cultivator cursed out with widened, bell-shaped eyes.

He had never expected Tian Fengzi to be defeated and killed right at the beginning. At present, that Manfaced Frostspid had lost control and was relying on its primitive instincts to battle against Wei Suo.

A low-tier level 5 demonic beast challenging a Heavenly Circuit Stage level 3 cultivator, one that possessed Spirit class offensive and defensive artifacts……such an outcome was exceedingly obvious.

As expected, Wei Suo’s figure blurred as he soared 3 metres into the sky. A boom resounding beneath his feet, before a cloud of incinerating fire cloud was conjured out; instantly engulfing the surrounding chilling air.

“A Flirecloud Flyer! What a fella! He actually employs a mid-level Earth rank flying artifact!” The random audience of cultivators roared out.

Floating 3 metres in mid air, Wei Suo then leisurely summoned out a Golden Carp looking artifact.

Hu! That Golden Carp artifact surged out from Wei Suo’s hand. Peng! Frosty and viscous white spider threads simultaneously shot out from the Manfaced Frostspid’s mouth; enveloping towards Wei Suo.

However, that Golden Carp artifact suddenly segregated into hundred streaks of golden beam, before smashing against the Manfaced Frostspid from every direction; beating it into a pathetic pulp. Chi! A tiny black arrow that whizzed out from the hands of Wei Suo thrusted toward the Manfaced Frostspid’s neck unobstructed.

Within a split second, the head of that Manfaced Frostspid was utterly twisted. Identical to its owner, this low-tier level 5 demonic beast hadn’t even had the chance to unleash its demonic dan-pellet before being effortless slayed by Wei Suo.

Don’t even mention Nangong Yuqing, even Han Weiwei’s eyes were flushed with utmost surprise. Although she was aware that Wei Suo would undoubtedly dispose Tian Fengzi, she hadn’t expected that it would be such an effortless affair. This was practically a duel between cultivators of different realms.

Not only was he killed, even his nurtured demonic beast was slain by Wei Suo.

Tian Fengzi’s Manfaced Frostspid was already one of the foremost demonic beasts of the Golden Eagle Palace. It was even much stronger than the immature Quadwinged Frostpede that Li Honglin possessed. What caused Li Honglin to nearly cough out blood was that right after killing off the Manfaced Frostspid, Wei Suo actually strolled forward and directly stored its carcass into his Treasure Receiving Pocket. Then, analogous to the duel prior to this, he started to rummage through the battle spoils from Tian Fengzi’s corpse.

Following that, he witnessed as Wei Suo discourteously looted all of Tian Fengzi’s possessions and stored them into his Treasure Receiving Pocket.

“Well done!”

Completely lacking the demeanor of a lady, Xin Youlan burst into roaring laughters. In reality, she was all along at loggerheads with Dong Qingyi. This was not only because his Ironblood Temple was a replica of her Battlebeast Valley. The most important factor was due to Dong Qingyi’s personality. He was clearly a petty man with a shallow heart, always seeking for trouble and taking revenge. Yet on the contrary, he would display a sanctified and dignified demeanor, as though he was indifferent to all things. Still, though misgivings had been sown between the two, his status as the young master of East Victory prevented her from making a move.

Previously during the auction, she had failed to cause Dong Qingyi an embarrassment due to her bringing insufficient spiritual stones. But with Wei Suo bluntly dispatching of Tian Fengzi within mere seconds, her heart had been thoroughly refreshed.

“Well done my ass!”

Yet at this moment, someone shouted out within the audience.

“Hmm?” Xin Youlan’s eyes flashed with murderous severity, wanting to identifying the courageous brat who dared to refute herself. Instead, she noticed a macho cultivator berated aloud with an enraged countenance. “Which idiot arranged for such a useless trash to spar with others. Now this daddy here has to run around naked from a lost bet!”

While angrily berating, that macho cultivator started to strip off his clothes; all the way till his feet. Employing an unknown flying skill technique, he dragged his naked ass as he looped around the audience stand.

“Wonderful, now I’ve seen it clearly, a true man indeed!”

“What a sporting brute! Carrying words of enormous weight! We support you!”

“Don’t worry, have a safe flight. We will take care of your clothes and spiritual stones pouch.”

Within this instance, the entire audience stance broke into a clamorous uproar.

In contrast, both Nangong Yuqing and Han Weiwei’s face flushed with red; not daring to fixate their gazes onto that stark naked cultivator.

“You’ve really concealed yourself remarkably, I’ve truly underestimated you.” Dong Qingyi’s face was utterly downcast and was seemingly about to explode. Yet after flashes of gaze, he managed to contain himself and offered those words while glaring coldly at Wei Suo.

Without any expression, Wei Suo replied, “Young Master Dong is too courteous.”

“Here’s a thousand high grade spiritual stones.” Instead, Dong Qingyi fished out a Treasure Receiving Pocket and tossed it towards Xin Youlan, who was gazing at him craftily; a gaze that revealed she didn’t care for that Treasure Receiving Pocket at all. Then, he stretched out his hand and produced a set of 20 plus white triangular flags from another Treasure Receiving Pocket. “This is a complete Spiritmist Formation Flag set. You can examine it.”

After tossing all those 20 plus white flags to Xin Youlan, Dong Qingyi directly flung the two portions of map to Wei Suo without offering a single word.

Wei Suo disregarded all cordiality as he started to inspect the maps carefully in front of Dong Qingyi.

When dealing with a person like Dong Qingyi, there was no use trying to lay low after forming a knot of grudge between them. To Wei Suo, the only way out now was to continue raising his cultivation level, to avoid falling into his hands eventually.

“Since the wager you suggested consisted of the Soulguard Ancient Talisman as well, I can see that you wish to obtain that item. However, that and the Spiritmist Formation Flags are beneficial to me, therefore, I cannot hand them over to you. Nevertheless, take these 100,000 spiritual stones as compensation.” Xin Youlan seemed to be purposefully provoking Dong Qingyi by splitting the loots in front of him. After examining her formation flags, she straightforwardly flung that Treasure Receiving Pocket of 1,000 high grade spiritual stones to Wei Suo.

“I’ll comply with lady Xin’s wishes.” Wei Suo nodded without hesitation. Although he desired those items as well, but with his present battle capability and cultivation, he was in no position to be negotiating with her. Moreover, 100,000 low grade spiritual stones to him, could already be considered a pleasant sum of profit.

“If there are no further matters, this one shall take his leave.” After receiving the Treasure Receiving Pocket, he cast a glance at Nangong Yuqing and Han Weiwei before bidding farewell.

Having already offended the regional tyrant, Dong Qingyi, any further delay in Seven Stars City meant an additional avenue of danger.
