The Prodigies War

“Welcome Young Master!”

“Young Master is amazing!”

The members of the Zhongli Clan exclaimed one after another, their faces glowing with pride. 

On the other hand, the faces of the experts from the Blue Luan Clan and the Ocean Shark Clan turned overcast. Zhongli Wuji is so scheming. He appeared at such a timely moment and acted as the savior!

“What a scheming mind!”

Some peerless geniuses frowned. They never thought that Zhongli Wuji would be so good at reading and grasping the situation, and that made him even more terrifying. 

In mid-air, Zhongli Wuji looked extraordinary as he stood tall like a spear with thick purple hair flowing around him and golden symbols glowing within his eyes.

“Demon God Lin, it’s just a duel to learn from one another, but you wanted to kill! Isn’t that a little too much?”

His words were casual and indifferent, but it was tinged with criticism and reprimand. He had a superior attitude like an elder scolding a junior.

Many cultivators smacked their lips. 

Just moments ago, Demon God Lin demonstrated his divine powers and was unstoppable on the battlefield. He consecutively defeated Sha Liuchan and Qing Lian’er. But Zhongli Wuji still dared to treat Demon God Lin with disrespect!

Sha Liuchan’s face was dark and skewed with anger and disgust.

Not only did he fail to defeat Demon God Lin, but he also allowed Zhongli Wuji to seize the opportunity to show off, steal the limelight, and become the savior of him and Qing Lian’er. How could he not be furious?

Qing Lian’er felt the same. Her face was livid. 

She had her own trump card. Even if Zhongli Wuji didn’t show up to save her, she was confident that Lin Xun couldn’t kill her. 

But there was no point in saying that now. Regardless of whether or not she wanted to admit it or not, she had received a favor from Zhongli Wuji!

She almost crushed her teeth in hatred and anger. 

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, it was already shameful and humiliating enough to be defeated by Demon God Lin. But now, Zhongli Wuji suddenly jumped out and made her look even worse. How would she not be resentful?

On the other hand, Zhongli Wuji was undeniably dazzling, attracting the eyes of all the onlookers. 

But Lin Xun hated him to the bone. He uttered coldly, “So you are Zhongli Wuji. You really are a showy bastard that loves to be in the limelight!”

He couldn’t even pretend to be polite because Zhongli Wuji’s appearance made him miss out on a fantastic opportunity to kill Qing Lian’er.

Loves to be in the limelight.

Showy bastard? 

Lin Xun’s words caused another commotion. 

Some cultivators admired his courage so much that they wanted to kowtow to him. As expected of Demon God Lin. Only he dares to criticize Zhongli Wuji like that.

The genius talents’ expressions altered awkwardly because although they wholeheartedly agreed with Lin Xun, they couldn’t show it on the surface. 

“Junior Sister Lingxi, your friend is crazy. Even I can’t help but admire him,” a successor of the Longevity Land exclaimed.

Although the others didn’t speak, their gazes turned complicated. They had witnessed the earthshaking melee and also witnessed how Lin Xun defeated the peerless geniuses.

His amazing feat had long swept away their disdain and contempt for him. Even if they didn’t want to, they had to admit that Demon God Lin was exceptionally powerful and, even in the Longevity Land, only a handful of people could match up to him. 

Bai Fengliu was beaming with excitement. He swiftly noted down everything on the news leaves. But he chose to record them from a very different perspective and deliberately chose the part where Lin Xun scolded Zhongli Wuji.

As for Zhongli Wuji’s remarks, he intentionally blurred them out.

“Demon God Lin, Demon God Lin, our Windspeaker Clan should maintain a neutral stance but I also don’t like that guy so I have to exaggerate your image. Even if you find out in the future, you will want to thank me...” Bai Fengliu mumbled to himself. 

Yue Jianming had held back for a long time, but in the end, he couldn’t help from marveling, “Brother Lin Xun, you are truly a god-like figure!”

……

However, unexpectedly, Zhongli Wuji did not erupt with anger but wrinkled his brows and said calmly, “Demon God Lin, don’t tell me you only have a sharp tongue. If so, I will look down on you very much.”

He maintained his calm elegance. 

“Who cares if you look down on me?!”

Lin Xun laughed in anger, “You are the most shameless and hypocritical person I’ve met. A while ago, who announced to the world that he will be the first to jump out to suppress me? Who is the one now saying that I only have a sharp tongue? Do you have any shame?”

The onlookers were amazed by Lin Xun’s blunt words, realizing that Demon God Lin was more tyrannical than rumored.  

From the moment that Demon God Lin appeared, he killed Sha Lu with overwhelming strength, a top cultivator from the Ocean Shark Clan. After that, he effortlessly suppressed Tang Chuan, the successor from the younger generation of the Xuanbo Sword Sect.

Then, Sha Liuchan, Qing Lian’er, and members of the Zhongli Clan appeared and they all directed the spearhead of their attack at him, but that did not deter him. Instead, he leaped into the sky and threatened to kill Sha Liuchan and Qing Lian’er, two peerless geniuses, by himself.

After that, he defeated Sha Liuchan and severely wounded Qing Lian’er and even almost killed her!

All those unbelievable scenes happened before their eyes, highlighting the tyrannical strength and ferocious nature of Demon God Lin. 

In the entire world, there likely wouldn’t be someone as daring and courageous as him!

However, everyone didn’t expect Zhongli Wuji to remain so calm and composed in the face of being reprimanded by Demon God Lin.

He just said with a frown, “Yes, I did say that not anyone in this world can be worthy of the title Demon God. If you disagree with me, you can face me at the Dao Lantern Festival, where I will be the first to suppress you and strip you of your title.”

His words were indifferent, but filled with absolute confidence.

“Stop talking nonsense. If you want to die that much then I’ll send you on your way now!” Lin Xun uttered coldly, becoming more and more irate. 

Everyone was in an uproar. Is Demon God Lin going to continue his rampage and suppress Zhongli Wuji?

What’s an example of someone so crazy that no one can compete with him?

He is!

If Fang Linhan, the successor of Eight Extremes Blade Temple, was here, he also likely would feel inferior to him.

However, Sha Liuchan and Qing Lian’er gleefully smirked. 

They had lost their faces after being defeated by Demon God Lin and almost suffocated with humiliation, but Zhongli Wuji acted like their savior and showed off in front of everyone. They could only cast repulsed and disgusted stares at him. So, when they saw Lin Xun aggressively provoking and reprimanding him, they gloated and even hoped that Demon God Lin would display his might again to suppress him!

They didn’t want anyone to do better than them. 

“Now? Haha, are you not afraid of making a fool of yourself?” Zhongli Wuji chuckled, “Being watched like a show of performing monkeys? I, Zhongli Wuji, can’t do something like that.”

A show of performing monkeys!

Sha Liuchan and Qing Lian’er’s expressions turned the worst yet. Is Zhongli Wuji implying that our battle was a show of performing monkeys?

Is he calling us monkeys performing for the audience?

The onlookers were speechless. Zhongli Wuji had a calm and elegant exterior, but his words were ruthless.

“A show of performing monkeys? You’re right. Today, I’m going to make a show out of you, a hypocritical and shameless monkey!”

Lin Xun charged forward. He didn’t want to talk nonsense with him anymore!

Boom!

His body erupted in a blaze of divine light. He circulated all his strength and gathered it into his punch and sent it roaring across the universe.  

Zhongli Wuji narrowed his eyes. He thought that Demon God Lin would have exhausted his strength after the fierce battle and would hold back a little when facing him. 

Unexpectedly, he was still as tough as ever and even challenged him to a battle!

“It seems like if I don’t suppress you, trash from the lower domain, you won’t know what respect is!”

The golden rune symbols bloomed in Zhongli Wuji, and his long purple hair raged around him. His aura suddenly soared in power.  

All of a sudden, the wind picked up, clouds scudded across the sky, and the atmosphere turned heavy. 

A peerless showdown was about to break out again.

The onlookers all cast excited looks in the same direction. 

“The Dao Lantern Festival has yet to start, but you guys already want to fight to the death, is it worth it? Listen to me and stop what you’re doing now!”

However, before the two faced off, a figure emerged out of nowhere like a ghost, standing between the two. 

It was a vigorous old woman with silver hair and a terrifying majesty. The aura around her was tremendous, piercing the sky like an unshakable mountain. 

Si!

Many onlookers gasped as they recognized that the old woman was a top figure from the older generation of the Unsolved Mystery Sword Alms. 

No one imagined that the old woman with such a respected status would interfere in the matter!

“Huh?” Lin Xun narrowed his eyes, feeling annoyed. 

When he was about to kill Qing Lian’er, Zhongli Wuji appeared to obstruct him.

Now, another old monster stood forward to put a stop to everything. How could he be happy?

He didn’t care who she was. Even if the heavenly emperor came in person, he wouldn’t be afraid!

Boom!

He activated the Hornless Ice Dragon Step and a snow-white dragon flew into the sky with tremendous speed, flashing past the old woman to continue to fight to the death with Zhongli Wuji.

“You…” Zhongli Wuji’s pupils shrank. He thought that Lin Xun would back down when the old woman appeared.

Who would have thought that he would refuse to do as she said?

Not only Zhongli Wuji, but even the old woman was also a little taken aback. This kid really deserves to be called a demon god-like character. He’s a bit too tyrannical...

With this thought, the old woman stretched out her hand to block Lin Xun. Crimson-red light flooded the sky, dao sounds rumbled endlessly, and all sorts of magnificent visions took shape in the air. 

Theft is never good, try looking at [ pawread dot com ].

It was a casual and leisurely swipe of her hand yet it had a natural, supreme power and instantly dissolved Lin Xun’s attack.

Ta Ta Ta

Lin Xun reeled back a few steps in the air, terror-stricken. His arm had gone numb. The old woman isn’t quite at the king stage yet she possesses such terrifying strength. She’s much stronger than ordinary half-step kings!

Lin Xun stood stunned for a moment. Only then did he see the old woman’s face clearly and recognize who she was.

At the same time, the old woman felt waves rippling in her heart. This kid is a freak! He has grown so much stronger than when he was in Flame Capital!
