Chapter 1493 Nothing But Supreme Sits Here, Our Generation Rises through Storms
The atmosphere in the big hall was suffocating.
What does your Ancient Wasteland Domain have to fight us?
The overbearing question caused the expression of every Divine Apparatus Pavilion elder to falter in shame and frustration.
Seeing this, Chi Qianqiu’s face flashed with contempt.It’s been ages, but these fellows who languish in the Ancient Wasteland Domain are a bunch of insufferable cowards!
In this silence, Mister Shen suddenly smiled and directed his hand toward the door with a ‘please’ gesture.
No words were spoken, but the meaning of his action was obvious!
Chi Qianqiu was first taken aback, then his face turned red in stifled anger and embarrassment. He asked heavily, “You really intend to invite your own destruction?”
The suppressed fury in his voice was murderous.
Mister Shen retracted his hand and said calmly, “We respect you as a guest, but if you refuse to leave when your leave is due, don’t blame us for shutting the door and beating the dog.”
“Shut the door and beat the dog?” Chi Qianqiu abruptly stood up, his eyes blooming with an intimidating light.He, a mighty Quasi-Emperor who had descended to the Ancient Wasteland Domain as the leading envoy to conduct a negotiation, was regarded as a ‘dog!’
This was no longer as simple as a slap in the face, but a glaring humiliation.
His expression instantly clouded with seething killing intent.
Mister Shen ignored it and casually said, “If you want to fight, I’ll gladly satisfy you. The worst thing that can happen is that I’ll break your legs, crack your head, and then personally send you lapdogs back to where you came from.”
“How dare you?!” Chi Qianqiu’s beard and hair flew up as he raged.
Bang!
No one saw how Mister Shen moved, but the next moment, Chi Qianqiu was swung up before being ruthlessly smashed on the ground, causing the big hall to quake a little.
Everyone else was stunned; only Mister Miaoxuan sighed and shook his head. His senior brother was indeed a good-tempered and humble gentleman who loved peace, but when it came to dealing with enemies, he was also the most merciless and overbearing!
Just like how he was at the moment.
Chi Qianqiu’s head was spinning. Sprawling on the ground, his expression was frozen solid, as if he had not expected at all that Mister Shen would dare to use violence.
Then, he saw Mister Shen rolling up his sleeves and walking toward him while ordering, “Close the door and start beating the dog. To think that a mere envoy has been barking at our Divine Apparatus Pavilion for so many days. You are definitely a foolhardy dog. If we don’t break your legs, how can we face the Ancient Wasteland Domain?”
Mister Miaoxuan and the other elders couldn’t help but laugh, their eyes gleaming unkindly.
Their patience had been tested for too long!
Chi Qianqiu’s face twisted. He shouted angrily, “Do you know the consequences of doing this? It’s not something you can withstand…”
Bang!
Mister Shen’s fist smashed in his face. The execution was so crude that it could belong to a street fight, absent any trace of style and elegance that was normally seen from a high-level master.
Chi Qianqiu’s mouth and nose sprayed blood, and his teeth fell out. He roared in rage, and his eyes popped out as the hatred almost drove him crazy.
While he was a Quasi-Emperor, under the suppression of the Ancient Wasteland Domain’s heavenly laws, his cultivation was restrained at the Saint stage.
Under this circumstance, where could he get the power to resist?
Thump!
Mister Shen raised his foot and stomped down, breaking Chi Qianqiu’s legs. Blood streamed out.
Mister Shen then sighed softly, “As a guest, you should act like one instead of upsetting the host. Since we can’t kill you, the least we can do is give you a good beating.”
Chi Qianqiu was going crazy. He was so furious and embarrassed that his lungs wanted to explode.
He was an envoy representing the will of the other eight domains, and on top of that, he was also a Quasi-Emperor who stood above all Saints!
But now, he was being beaten like a dog!
Pa!
Mister Shen’s slap came out of the blue before Chi Qianqiu could react. As stars filled his vision, he shrieked, “You’re bringing your own destruction!!”
Mister Shen frowned and deployed both fists and feet. He pinned Chi Qianqiu on the ground and dropped a rain of punches and kicks. Very soon, Chi Qianqiu became red and swollen all over. Coupled with his disheveled hair, he had taken a completely new appearance.
Eventually, Mister Shen exhaled a long breath as if satisfied and mumbled, “It’s been so long that I almost forgot how good I am at scuffling…”
If Lin Xun saw this, his jaw would drop. Who could believe that the senior whom he greatly revered was actually so savage?
Even Mister Miaoxuan and the other elders felt that Mister Shen’s action was somewhat…disgraceful. Their mouths twitched a little.
On the ground, Chi Qianqiu looked like he was on his last breath.
Both his legs had been broken, and the bones in them had been cracked into an unknown number of pieces. He seemed beyond miserable.
“Senior Brother…” Mister Miaoxuan came up to Mister Shen with a worried expression, not knowing how he should phrase his words.
Mister Shen smiled benignly. “You want to beat him up as well? Go ahead. As long as you don’t kill him, you can beat him all you want.”
Lying paralyzed like a dead dog, Chi Qianqiu shuddered upon hearing this. The beating had frightened him witless.
He was even scared that Mister Shen would disregard everything and kill him.
After all, even a rabbit could bite when pushed to the brink. If Mister Shen decided to kill him regardless of the consequences, then he definitely wouldn’t leave the Ancient Wasteland Domain alive!
While the eight domains might take revenge for him in the future, what was the point when he was already a dead man?
Before Mister Miaoxuan could speak, Mister Shen already gave orders, “Throw him out. He’s a Quasi-Emperor, so some superficial wounds can’t kill him.”
An elder instantly stepped forth and dragged Chi Qianqiu out of the hall like mud paste.
“I know it isn’t right to beat up the envoy, but how can we let him leave with a happy heart after he upset us?” Mister Shen swept his gaze over the others. “Moreover, our domain already has no retreat in the upcoming conflict, so should we endure them?”
The elders were all silent.
“Since we can’t endure anymore, might as well stop now. Let us find out about our fate after putting up a good fight!”
Mister Shen’s voice was calm, but his brave spirit was resounding.
Then, he seemed to recall something and laughed, “But of course, do you think Chi Qianqiu would tell anyone else about the humiliation he’s suffered here?”
The crowd was dumbstruck, and then they couldn’t help but laugh as well.
However, everyone present knew that Mister Shen’s today action had decided the only option of the Ancient Wasteland Domain in the upcoming Nine Domains Conflict –
Fighting to the death!
……
The battle above the Spirit Tempering Tower of Baiyujing had come to an end.
In the same evening, Lang Qianheng, Mu Zhaixing, Zhu Yingxue, and the other five young supreme figures from the other eight domains were taken away by a grim-looking Chi Qianqiu.
They left quickly without delaying a second.
“Senior, we…” On the way back, Mu Zhaixing looked ashamed. He didn’t know what to say after they had lost so miserably against Lin Xun.
The others also hung their heads, their hearts tormented by shame.
Chi Qianqiu swept his eyes over the dispirited and indignant young cultivators and was reminded of the embarrassment he had suffered at the Divine Apparatus Pavilion. His expression clouded over.
In this diplomatic trip to the Ancient Wasteland Domain, he had not only failed to achieve the main objective but also had been greatly humiliated. Thinking of this, Chi Qianqiu almost exploded with anger.
“Senior, how did the negotiation with the Divine Apparatus Pavilion go? Did they agree to hand over their Flying Immortal Tablets? Since you were present, I bet they didn’t dare to refuse at all, right?” said Zhu Yingxue in an attempt to change the subject.
However, it instantly irritated Chi Qianqiu like rubbing salt into his wound. His face darkened visibly.
He scolded, “Still yapping away after being defeated like that, are you not ashamed?!”
Zhu Yingxue’s face paled in shock and embarrassment. She instantly snapped her mouth shut.
The young cultivators vaguely realized that Chi Qianqiu had also failed his mission. Otherwise, he wouldn’t look this terrifyingly gloomy.
However, Zhu Yingxue’s treatment was a good warning. They didn’t dare to ask questions.
“Go!” Chi Qianqiu snorted. Forcibly suppressing the urge to vent his anger, he led the group away at full speed.
On that same day, the envoys left the Ancient Wasteland Domain.
However, the Ancient Wasteland Domain did not calm down.
Lin Xun’s unparalleled might and his brilliant victory were still spreading and creating a sensation.
He had disappeared for two years after the closing of the Supreme Realm, only to achieve such a feat right after emerging again. Who wouldn’t be shocked?
Many ancient dao lineages in the Ancient Wasteland Domain had begun to consider him invincible among the supreme elites of the young generations. They reckoned he already had the power to lead the pack!
Some forces even put him on their list of ‘must never be messed with’ as he was simply too terrifying. Despite being a loner who had never joined a faction, he had been on a constant rise up until this point where his might was enough to decide the weather of the Ancient Wasteland Domain!
The scariest thing was that no one knew where his true limits were. Even the battle with Mu Zhaixing’s group still seemed to have failed to force out his full strength.
The evidence was that after dominating them all, Lin Xun had still looked calm, relaxed, and full of energy. Not even a strand of hair on his head had been harmed!
The only ones feeling conflicted were the forces who had been hostile to Lin Xun.
They loathed him so much that they wanted him dead, but they were also well aware that his prestige had risen to an unprecedented level. Whoever dared to deal with him would become the world’s enemy.
The battlefield in Baiyujing was in the territory of the Omega Sword Sect, who regarded Lin Xun as their mortal enemy.
But in the end, they had still had no choice but to allow the battle, not daring to even entertain the thought of using it to plot against him.
After the battle, they had even secretly protected him while he left Baiyujing because at the end of the day, they would be the one taking all the blame if something were to happen to Lin Xun within their territory!
At this moment, the sensational Lin Xun was sitting in a luxurious restaurant far away from Baiyujing.
Named ‘Drunken Immortal,’ the restaurant was three thousand feet tall and had an antique feel to it.
On the highest floor, Lin Xun was gathering with a group of close friends: Imperial Son Shaohao, Fairy Ruowu, Yuan Fatian, Mi Hengzhen, Ye Mohe, Wang Xuanyu, Ji Xingyao, Chi Lingxiao, and the other supreme figures of the current generation.
The atmosphere of the banquet was lively and cordial.
They had no worries as there were many Saints outside, secretly guarding the Drunken Immortal Restaurant!
After all, apart from Lin Xun and a few others, behind the rest were various ancient dao lineages. So how could these dao lineages put their supreme characters at risk?
Therefore, even those forces that had enmity with Lin Xun didn’t dare to take any action!
