The Supreme Lord Donghuang

Chapter 206: Cause and Effect

Woah!

The black, glowing halo around Zhong Ya started flowing, and the inner Yuan emerged from his body just like a giant black ball of fire. His entire being suddenly became like a worldly, glorious god, floating mightily in the air.

Afterwards, both his hands trembled. He reached out with both his hands, welding a knife and whipped forward as if he wanted to cast Zhou Donghuang aside before sticking a knife into him to end him once and for all.

“Just by converting your Dharma into armor, you believe that will cover up and make up for all your weak spots?”

Towards Zhong Ya, who was charging towards him, Zhou Donghuang’s mouth arched into a mocking smile, and he then violently shook the hand holding his folding fan, sending it flying forward.

Swish!

The fan cut through the air and slightly brushed past Zhong Ya’s left palm, frustrating him.

At the same time, Zhou Donghuang’s moving body brushed past Zhong Ya’s palm at the same time while the former reached out his hand like a shot of lightning, pulling the fan back to him.

All these things happened in an instant.

As for Zhong Ya, he had never imagined that Zhou Donghuang would be able to have such a fast reaction within such a short period of time and manage to open up his left hand.

One had to know that his right hand’s fist had been aiming for the folding fan that Zhou Donghuang was holding on to.

“That reaction time was scarily fast!” Zhong Ya’s heart lurched.

This was the first time he had met such a powerfully scary being. It was as if Zhou Donghuang was able to anticipate his enemy’s every move and gain an advantage even before his enemy could take any action.

It was as if Zhong Ya was not fighting with a young man of about 20 years old, and instead, it felt like he was fighting with an old beast that was a veteran of war, or who had experienced hundreds of years of battle.

“Well, what does it matter that he evaded my one palm? My power can easily take him down!”

Zhong Ya’s right hand shot out like a knife, and in it, he welded a narrow knife that had a black tip. He lunged forward towards Zhou Donghuang, slicing the knife down in the air. The sound this action made was piercing and caused one to wince.

“If he doesn’t bother to hide, he’s really stupid then!”

Zhong Ya’s eyes flashed and a maniacal expression appeared on his face. “As for me, at most, I’ll just suffer a few more minor injuries.”

Just as the black tip of the knife was about to slice Zhou Donghuang’s body in half, at that very moment, Zhou Donghuang’s waist, as well as the lower part of his body, glowed with silver light. Strangely, his upper body folded up and now seemed to be extremely malleable, like it did not contain any bones and could be folded at will.

This was also all out of Zhong Ya’s expectations. It greatly confused everyone presently watching the fight as well.

How could someone transform their body like that?!

Hm!

The knife in Zhong Ya’s hand fell just like his previous punch had.

“How can this be!?”

Seeing as Zhou Donghuang had miraculously managed to push away the knife that he so confidently thrust out, Zhong Ya’s face immediately changed and a cold sweat began to drip down his face.

At the same time, he frantically adjusted the power within him in hopes of launching a second attack. However, right at this very moment, the lower half of Zhou Donghuang’s body, which had folded up, now used the tension amassed to bounce forward like a strong arrow shot by an archer, aiming directly for Zhong Ya.

“Oh no!”

Quickly, Zhong Ya activated all the remaining inner Yuan within him and emptied it all out. He used the pure black armor that was created to hide himself.

Hm!

Towards the fan that Zhou Donghuang had re-brandished, Zhong Ya could feel the silver glow and the power emanating from the fan. He put his hands together in preparation for a strong attack by Zhou Donghuang.

Pshhh!

Suddenly, the fan that Zhou Donghuang had thrown across in the air was blocked by Zhong Ya’s two hands. It had met with Zhong Ya while it was glowing bright with silver light.

“Young man, do not overestimate the power of a Dharma adept. It’s much more powerful than you think!”

Zhong Ya smiled victoriously as he had managed to fend off Zhou Donghuang’s attack. “Just you wait till my next move!”

“Well, it’s not too shabby for you to be known in the future as the first to be killed by me, a Dharma adept!”

At this moment, Zhong Ya acted as if he had already won this battle.

Psh!

Zhou Donghuang laughed mockingly in return and, at the same time, he waved the fan in his right hand violently. Zhong Ya’s heart immediately had an uneasy feeling. He clasped his hands together once more and attempted to snatch Zhou Donghuang’s fan by force.

Yet, the fan in Zhou Donghuang’s hand was as slippery as a slug. No matter how earnestly Zhong Ya tried, the fan still easily slipped from his hands.

“No…”

After the fan slipped from Zhong Ya’s fingers, Zhong Ya felt as if something was amiss, and his facial expression suddenly changed as well. He suddenly let out a frantic and pained cry.

Psh!

The fan that had escaped Zhong Ya’s hands acted as if it was a wild beast that had escaped its cage. It flopped around like a fish out of water, shooting around in the sky like a beam of silver light.

Psh! Pow!

Fresh blood spattered everywhere.

Phew!

A brain flew into the sky.

Zhong Ya now suffered the same fate as the Xuanyin Sect’s Primal Core adepts who had previously died at the hands of Zhou Donghuang.

On the 10th of October, 1233 of the Ziyun Era, after 3 years, Zhou Donghuang had appeared at the Feast of Ziyun and murdered Zhong Ya of the Xuanyin Sect in front of all the various guests present. He delivered the consequences he had promised Zhong Ya when the latter had disobeyed his orders back then in the Valley of the Medicine Masters.

Zhong Ya had thus also become immortalized in history as the Dharma adept who had lived the shortest life.

He had been killed after stepping into the Dharma realm for a mere three days.

This battle between Zhou Donghuang and Zhong Ya was extremely fast-paced, and if one were to be distracted or failed to observe closely, they would have missed several exciting scenes.

The entire Feast of Ziyun had thus fallen into a silence ever since the duo had started fighting.

Seeing as Zhong Ya’s brain had flew into the sky and he had been killed, although the entire scene remained silent as before, the sound of Zhong Ya’s motionless corpse hitting the ground still shook the audience greatly.

How could the third Dharma adept of the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun have passed away so easily?

“No…”

“This is impossible! This is impossible!”

Among the crowd that was murmuring about the events that had just happened, Chen Dandan was the first to recover, and she had on an expression of disbelief and shock.

“Brother has won!”

Sitting on the golden-crowned eagle, Little Gold’s back, Yun Lu cheered excitedly with a flushed face. Little Gold, similarly, had let out rings of light in his excitement.

So what if Zhong Ya was a Dharma adept? He was still killed in the end by their master!

“Chen Dandan!”

When Zhou Donghuang’s voice rose up once more, everyone else regained their senses as well. After sighing to themselves, they glanced at Zhou Donghuang with a completely different expression as before.

They could not help but only view him with fear now.

This young man, dressed purely in white, was merely a Primal Core adept. However, he was immensely powerful, and his skills were already at a shocking level.

He could easily kill a Golden Essence adept.

Similarly, killing a Dharma adept was also of no issue to him!

“Who… who exactly is he!?”

“What kind of evil being is he? Could he really be a member of the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun!?”

…

As the crowd of people stared at Zhou Donghuang fearfully, Zhou Donghuang had already moved to where Chen Dandan was standing. He glanced stoically at Chen Dandan with an unreadable expression.

Just as Zhou Donghuang stared at Chen Dandan, those people who had been standing around her were now so frightened that they had scattered in all directions, keeping a distance from Chen Dandan lest they became casualties in this new conflict that was about to explode.

“Zhou… Zhou Donghuang…”

Glancing at this young man dressed in white before her, Chen Dandan’s face was full of desolation. She had never imagined that even with the backing of the Xuanyin Sect, one of the five powerful sects in the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun, she would still lose to Zhou Donghuang.

This youth had now become the strongest of the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun.

To Chen Dandan, several things were clear:

In the battle today, the young man before her had already ascended to the peak of the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun, and no one from the several sects would dare to offend him.

Did she regret it all? Of course she did.

If she had not been someone who betrayed the adoptive mother who had taken care of her, if she had not betrayed the man before her, she probably would have already been married to this man under the direction of her adoptive mother.

In that case, Chen Dandan would have been able to ride on Zhou Donghuang’s acquired glory and become a member of the powerful supreme sect of Ziyun. It was a pity that one wrong step had led to her downfall of today.

“All I wanted to say and ask, I have already done so three years ago.”

Zhou Donghuang glanced sideways at Chen Dandan, and the corners of his mouth turned up into a mocking smile. “Before I kill you, do you have anything to say, Chen Dandan?”

Chen Dandan sighed deeply. “You have won this fair and square. I have nothing to say!”

Three years ago, Chen Dandan knew that this person before her would never spare her so easily and would eventually kill her. Today, although she truly wished to live, she knew that Zhou Donghuang would never allow her the chance to do so.

It didn’t matter if she remained defiant or fell to her knees. Today, she was destined to die.

Why not die with a bit more dignity?

“If that is so, then off you go.”

Under the watchful gaze of the entire crowd, Zhou Donghuang’s body emitted silver flames, and these flames suddenly formed a giant hand in the sky, which landed on Chen Dandan’s head.

Ping!

A giant explosion rang out, and the ground shook, dust spraying everywhere.

Some people’s faces suddenly went numb with the impact.

When the dust had settled, a giant hand-shaped valley appeared in the ground. In this giant valley, blood was everywhere, and they were some traces of clothes and long hair.

Chen Dandan, who should have died three years ago in the Valley of the Medicine Masters, had managed to survive till today, but eventually met her death as well.

However, now, many others accompanied her to their graves.

After Chen Dandan’s death, the entire venue remained silent.

Those present were all too fearful to utter a word in front of the young man dressed in white. They were all afraid that any noise they made would irritate him.

“Lord Tuo Jin.”

Zhou Donghuang turned to look at a monk who was sitting in the front row among the audience and spoke lightly, “Have you thought about it?”

Once Zhou Donghuang had spoken, momentarily, everyone in the crowd become confused.

“The Divine Light Sect will follow your wishes, Lord Donghuang.”

Almost immediately after hearing Zhou Donghuang’s words, Young Lord Yuan of the Divine Light Sect, Tuo Jin, immediately stood up and bowed.

Next, under the glances of a confused crowd, he barked out an order, and several of the Golden Essence adepts of the Divine Light Sect got up and rushed towards the remaining adepts of the Xuanyin Sect.

Like a wolf devouring a pack of sheep, within an instant, all the adepts of the Xuanyin Sect were killed.

This scene shocked everyone present once again!
