The Trembling World

First, they rubbed their eyes to check if it was an illusion. Then, it was pinching their cheeks to see if they were dreaming. Once both results came back positive, it was the real deal. Wang De Cheng and most villagers started tearing up and calling for their leader.

“What is the matter?” Liu Gan starred at stage where Cao Yi and his two bodyguards stood in black uniforms.

It seemed like during his absence, someone dared to take the throne out from under him, and they dared to bully his villagers?

“Lord Liu, so this is what happened…” Wang De Cheng was updating Liu Gan briefly on the situation the moment he left the village. He couldn’t hold in the tears as he explained the embarrassment of having his dignity stripped away from him whenever he tried to oppose their oppressor.

“Lord Liu, don’t be hasty. That person is already level 14. If you go against him head on, you will get the worst of it,” Wang De Cheng whispered to Liu Gan.

Even though Wang De Cheng knew that Yin He and NaNa were unbeatable, the same couldn’t be said of Liu Gan. He was afraid that with that temper of his, Liu Gan might rush up and lose more than just a limb.

“Who are you? Are you their so-called leader?” Cao Yi walked slowly over to Liu Gan.

During his stay here, Cao Yi had heard of the village’s former leader, Liu Gan, who was supposedly only level 12. Since he was level 14, any level below that number was trivial to him. It would be like Liu Gan was an ant, one misstep could essentially kill him.

“That is correct, I am the leader here. Now who might you be? How dare you come here and disrupt the peace!” Liu Gan was slightly agitated after what he had heard from Wang De Cheng.

“I am Cao, as in Cao Yi! Are you scared by my name yet? If you obediently kneel before me, I will forgive you!” Cao Yi shouted at Liu Gan.

“Oh? Just hearing your idiotic name, does make my legs weak! “ Liu Gan used his Psychic Shock skill on Cao Yi, whose body instantly became rigid.

Liu Gan lunged forth and slapped him hard on the face. Left, right, left, right, a rotation of smacks, until Cao Yi fell flat on the ground. Then, Liu Gan stepped on Cao Yi’s face so that his nose was buried in the dirt.

This shocked Wang De Cheng and other villagers. They knew that Cao Yi was level 14, and Liu Gan was still level 12 when they last met. To their bewilderment, Liu Gan was overwhelmingly suppressing Cao Yi with smacks and even had him pinned under his feet.

With such strong physical attributes, was it possible that Lord Liu has raised his level at the Evil Dragon Gulf?

“Excellent!”

“Wreck him!”

“Humiliate the clown!”

“The clown called Cao Yi”

“Cao Yi is definitely an idiot!”

“...”

Witnessing this scene, the villagers felt as if their anger had been alleviated ever so slightly. They started cheering and applauding loudly. These days of living hell were over. Now that their true leader, Liu Gan was back, and Cao Yi was suppressed, they could rejoice.

“Lord Liu is the best!”

Without their true leader, they were nothing more than livestock. With Liu Gan back, no one could punish them!

Cao Yi was only level 14. He had his guard down from the moment he had walked up, which was the opening that Liu Gan needed. Even if he had his guard up, he was too slow. In the end, Liu Gan was able to take advantage of that.

Once Cao Yi had came to his senses, he forcefully broke free from Liu Gan’s foot. He then wiped the footprint off of his face. Embarrassed, he retreated a few steps back before pulling out his long sword.

“I thought someone was going to be capable of putting up a fight, but it seems like they are all theatrical! Just another clown!”

Liu Gan had tested it out already. Fighting against Cao Yi wouldn't even require the Champsosaurus Claws. However, he still wanted to find someone to test his new equipment on. Since Cao Yi wanted to offer himself up, Liu Gan would use him as the first sacrifice to his virgin claws.

“You dare call me a clown? You are all idiots!” Cao Yi started cursing at everyone around him. After that brief introduction, he had his guard up. He definitely acknowledged that it was possible that Liu Gan was a level above him.

“Cao Yi is such a clown!”

“Idiotic clown Cao!”

Everyone started to jeer at Cao Yi all at once.

“I was so kind to everyone here. Seems like my generosity has been mistaken for weakness. You people don’t understand how powerful I can be! I will kill you all!” Cao Yi started screaming, and swung his long sword at Liu Gan. The long sword was a special type of double-edged sword, it was thick in structure and had a glowing cyan shadow when swung.

Liu Gan couldn’t dodge in time, so instead he countered it with his own move on Cao Yi. He used his Eight Consecutive Enhanced Crescent Blade, while taking Cao Yi’s attack head-on.

Right as the long sword was about to land on Liu Gan’s body, his body was shrouded with his Mist Armor. The sword stopped short of Liu Gan’s real body. There were several centimeters of Mist Armor that were protecting him. Instead, sparks were produced as byproduct effect.

After reaching level 14, Liu Gan could use sixteen consecutive Enhanced Crescent Blade. It could be sixteen individual Blades, or combined into four or eight Blades. Liu Gan had equipped his Champsosaurus Claws, so it was used in conjunction with his skill. There were eight claws, which matched the eight Blades, with each claw releasing a Blade.

Since each claw had an outlet, the eight Enhanced Crescent Blades were launched simultaneously. The speed of it being used was faster than Cao Yi’s sword making contact with Liu Gan’s Mist Armor. As a result, the Enhanced Crescent Blade striked Cao Yi’s body first.

Cao Yi’s thick long sword landed on Liu Gan’s Mist Armor. It only destroyed around five percent of his Mist Armor. Liu Gan’s Mist Armor could be manipulated to hover centimeters above his body, so there was no rebound force or damage from any kinetic energy behind the attack.

However, Liu Gan’s attack instantly destroyed Cao Yi’s Mist Armor. A familiar blue shattering effect could be seen, signifying the collapse of the Mist Armor! As a byproduct, Cao Yi suffered the rebound force since his Mist Armor was still attached right above his skin.

Both the same level, but one of them had their Mist Armor instantly shattered!

“You! YOU!... are already level 17!”

Cao Yi was spitting out the blood gushing from his mouth as he muttered those words. He had witnessed the ability of manipulating Mist Armor, which was possible for any player above level 17. That was when he started to be afraid, he had met a strong foe.
