The Prodigies War
chapter-1116

On the steep and rugged mountain path, eight men in red robes were clearing the way for a chariot.

The eight red-robed men all looked different, but their auras were all extraordinarily powerful; they looked like Asuras walking out from a mountain of corpses and sea of blood. Their footsteps were firm and steady as they made their way up their mountain like they were treading on flat earth.

The chariot rumbled forward, producing astonishing brilliance that split the air wherever it passed, leaving behind beautiful streams of light. It was an amazing spectacle.

In just a few breaths, the group had reached the mountainside.

All the cultivators on the mountainside gasped and almost struggled to breath because the auras emanating from the eight men were too powerful and oppressive.

But the most eye-catching of the group had to be the chariot that seemed to be crafted some sort of seven-colored divine metal. The wondrous light flowing around it astonishingly dispersed the great dao power around the mountain like nothing could stop it.

It was a rare treasure embellished with inscriptions of ancient evils and scenes of spirits worshiping heaven and earth.

As the chariot clattered to a halt, the nearby space cracked and tore open huge black gaps.

The entrance was spectacular, like the arrival of an influential figure, and it sent a chill down the backs of many cultivators. Their expressions changed.

Even Qi Chongdou and others narrowed their eyes and assumed solemn expressions.

“The Golden Imperial Chariot! That’s the carriage of Jin Xiaoming, a descendant of the Golden King Snake Clan!” Someone recognized the group’s identity and sent a voice transmission to remind everyone.

The expressions of Qi Chongdou and the others changed once again. Jin Xiaoming was an ancient-era eccentric genius! He had been in the limelight recently, following the countless storms he had created.

It seemed that the Thousand Streams Meeting had indeed attracted the attention of ancient-era eccentric geniuses. Moreover, they surely came with ill intentions!

In truth, during this period of time, as the world changed, whenever a gathering of experts of the young generation was held, ancient-era eccentric geniuses would show up and provoke them.

As a result, ancient-era eccentric geniuses often humiliated and suppressed many young geniuses from the four major worlds.

It was no exaggeration to say that, during this period of time, ancient-era eccentric geniuses had crushed the current generation of geniuses and made them lose face to the point they almost couldn’t lift their heads!

Hence, Jin Xiaoming, who came in a golden chariot and was escorted by eight red-robed servants, definitely did not come to make friends.

“May I ask what brings you here?” Someone inhaled deeply before they asked in a deep voice, appearing calm and cautious.

A cold and callous voice sounded from the chariot, “I heard that the Thousand Streams Meeting was organized by Mi Hengzhen, but it seems very disappointing. It is nothing more than a gathering of nobodies.”

But the drawn curtains of the chariot concealed the true face of the owner.

The atmosphere instantly turned tense. There was no need to guess to know that the person deliberately came looking for trouble.

Many people’s faces darkened. Even Lin Xun scrunched his brows. Is this the way that ancient-era eccentric geniuses behave? If so, they are indeed arrogant!

The cold voice rang again from the chariot, “Where is Mi Hengzhen? Tell him to come out to see me.”

Qi Chongdou took a deep breath and issued an order, “Senior Brother Mi is not here now. If there’s nothing else then, fellow cultivator, can I ask you to leave. Outsiders are not welcome at this gathering.”

“Yes, we don’t welcome you, please leave!”

The others spoke one after another, their faces contorting with expressions of fear but also with unconcealed disgust.

“Shut up!”

The callous voice bellowed and spread like a thunderclap, overpowering and silencing all sounds. It stung many cultivators’ eardrums and sent their blood and qi rushing chaotically around their bodies.

“What? Do you want to resort to violence?” Qi Chongdou’s face darkened.

“Violence? No, I‘m just here to test the strength of you, self proclaimed genius experts!” stated the man in the chariot.

As soon as his voice died away, the eight red-robed men stepped forward, their eyes running across the audience like blades and their bodies emitting a fiendish aura.

“I won’t bully you guys. You can choose someone to challenge any one of my eight servants! If you don’t agree…then this gathering can’t continue.” The cold voice was dripping in contempt.

The faces of Qi Chongdou and other cultivators turned the darkest they had been. They couldn’t take it. There were many people among them who were ranked at the top of Little Giants List yet they were being looked down on with scorn.

He saw no reason to appear himself and just instructed his servants to take action!

“Argh!” Someone gritted his teeth.

It was absolute humiliation and contempt to them to tell his servants to take care of them.

“What? Do you not agree?” A man in a red robe said sternly, “Given your status and strength, you are not worthy of competing with my master. The eight of us are more than enough to deal with you all!”

Those words were aggravating. A servant dared to look down on everyone present!

Everyone scowled at the servant.

Both Toady and A’lu also couldn’t stand their arrogance, but they were held back by Lin Xun. They were only guests, and so they should listen to Qi Chongdou before doing anything.

“Those who do not agree should stand forward. You all claim to be the best of your generation, but do you not even have the guts to fight?” The leader of the red-robed men sneered.

He was tall and built and had narrow eyes. His appearance coupled with the intense menacing aura around him induced fear to those around him.

Everyone present felt a swell of rage rise in them. How dare a servant dare to come and act superior?!

Someone snapped, “I’ll fight you!”

It was a youngster in black robe, wielding a silver trident. He was also one of the dazzling genius talents.

Everyone perked up. They couldn’t wait to see him show off his powers and curb the opponent’s arrogance.

“You can’t.“ The red-robed man scoffed disdainfully.

Clang!

The youngster in a black robe uttered not a single word. With an ice-cold expression, he swung his silver trident and swept up a wave of terrifying light, ready to strike.

Boom!

The red-robed man somersaulted into the air and turned into a bolt of blood-coloured lightning, meeting the attack head-on. A fierce duel instantly unfolded.

However, after just over ten rounds, the silver trident was sent flying with a loud bang.

The red-robed man grabbed the black-robed youngster by the neck and, with a quick twist of his hand, a head tumbled onto the ground and blood rained down like a fountain.

“So weak!”

The red-robed man looked cold blooded as he tossed away the body of the black-robed youngster without so much as a glance at it.

The area fell dead silent. Everyone was aghast at the bloody scene. Their expressions changed drastically, and their minds were shaken. They never expected a mere servant to be so strong.

The fact was both infuriating and terrifying. No one could calm down.

“How dare you kill here!” Qi Chongdou raged.

“What? If you can’t accept it, you can also come out to fight!” the red-robed man said calmly.

“I’ll do it!”

Someone couldn’t stand it anymore. It was another young man in a black robe, but he was ranked in the top thirty six of the Little Giants List.

Boom!

His first strike already demonstrated his extraordinary strength, summoning a purple sun to the sky and then launching it at the red-robed man.

But the red-robed man was equally fierce and powerful. He sped forward without any hesitation and fought head-on.

In just a few breaths, the two had already exchanged hundreds of moves. The red-robed man swung his palm down vertically and cleanly sliced the youngster’s arm.

Shua!

The youngster had to dodge and leave the battlefield, his face ashen.

“Are you scared? He is indeed trash.” The red-robed man sneered.

Everyone’s face was filled with shock and anger. Even the top figures on the Little Giants List are no match for him. This is unbelievable.

Many people turned to look at Qi Chongdou and then at Lin Xun.

Qi Chongdou took a deep breath and his face bore a look of determination. In the absence of Mi Hengzhen, he was the host of the Thousand Streams Meeting and so he should step forward and take charge of the situation.

However, before he could take action, Lin Xun stopped him. “If you win, then you only win against a servant, which will damage your reputation.”

Qi Chongdou looked taken aback.

The red-robed servant shifted his gaze onto Lin Xun and a chilling smile tugged his lips. “If you don’t agree then you can come down and fight me. I promise to make your death ugly!”

Everyone looked at Lin Xun.

He was Demon God Lin! Among the people present, he was the strongest and if he took action, he indeed might be able to resolve the current situation.

But Lin Xun smiled slightly and turned around to urge Toady onto the battlefield. “Quickly go, it’s your turn to shine.”

Toady’s eyes widened and he stamped his feet. “Do you want me to fight a servant? I can’t be embarrassed like that! If someone has to go then it will be that barbarian!”

As he said that, he looked at A’lu, who quickly shook his head. “No, no, you don’t want to fight those servants, but if I go, won’t that damage my reputation?”

Everyone had confused looks and furrowed their brows. What are they doing? How can they bicker at this time?

“Toady, you are the best at taking care of this kind of thing. If I go, it’s obvious that I’m bullying them,” A’lu persuaded.

Toady shouted, “Do you think a guy like him is worthy to fight against me? This is an insult to me!”

Even the red-robed man looked dumbfounded as he watched the two argue back and forth. Then, his face darkened and his eyes almost shot flames. How dare they dismiss me like that?!

“Why don’t you both come together!” he bellowed.

“Shut up!”

“Be quiet!”

Toady and A’lu simultaneously scolded the red-robed, which made his face grow darker and darker.

Seeing the two were about to bicker once again, Lin Xun asked threateningly, “Toady, are you doing it or not?”

Toady reluctantly gave in and sighed, “Fine, only because you asked!”

Then, when he turned to look at the red-robed man, a look of disgust and impatience crossed his face. “Tell me, do you want to kill yourself by slashing your own neck, or do you want me to personally kill you? Choose a way to die.”

Those words were arrogant!

More arrogant than that of the red-robed man or his master’s!

Everyone’s eyes widened with astonishment. Who is the little brother in green? He seems extraordinary.

The red-robed man was so angry that his face was red with murderous rage and he hissed through gritted teeth, “Stop talking nonsense, come and die!”

“Haha, did you hear that? He tells you to come and die.” A’lu chuckled as though he wanted to see the world in chaos.

Toady was already in a very bad mood and was about to burst with rage upon hearing A’lu’s teasing. With a flash, he charged at the red-robed man.
