Chapter 156: Savage Like a Tiger

Chapter 156, Savage Like a Tiger

Chu Qingcheng’s thoughts aligned with the rest.

She gazed upon the changing yet unmistakably proud face with incertitude.

Zhuo Fan had lied to her from the start, yet he did not once do something to disappoint her. It turned out that with his intervention, all the crises were laid before her, unraveled, waiting for her to solve them with ease.

She came to believe that she and Drifting Flowers Edifice owed him. Now there was no reason for her to hold back from helping him avoid the danger he was in.

However, that only applied if he was anyone but Zhuo Fan. After all, he killed Hell Valley’s 7th elder.

If she chose to stand up for him, Hell Valley would soon be knocking with a war on her door. Regent Estate and Pill King Hall would never miss the golden opportunity either. Thus marking the end of Drifting Flowers Edifice.

She was deep in thought for a while before coming to a decision. Chu Qingcheng gnashed her teeth and her eyes shined with conviction as she took a simple step.

[Death is nothing, since today is Drifting Flowers Edifice’s judgment day. Without this man’s help, Vicious Pill King would’ve gripped the whole of Drifting Flowers Edifice in a mere two days.]

Rather than struggle on death’s door, ending alongside the man she admired with a bang didn’t seem like a bad way to go.

Chu Qingcheng’s gait became firm and nodded at Tao Danniang, “Aunt Tao!”

Clear on her intention, Tao Danniang sighed as she grew resolute as well.

But right then, one red and one blue silk ribbon held them tight before lifting them on the terrace.

“I knew you two were foolish, but thankfully I managed to stop you.”

Peony Overseer and Iris Overseer released the ribbons and sighed. Xie Tianyang then rushed to explain Zhuo Fan’s intentions.

The two were alarmed, unable to comprehend how a Bone Tempering cultivator could face four Profound Heaven experts. It was impossible even to a freak like him.

Shrugging, Xie Tianyang sighed, “I’ve fulfilled my end and told you of his wishes. If you still wish to be reckless, all you’ll be doing is ruining his plan. His anger will be on you!”

“Let’s see him dare get angry at me!” Chu Qingcheng shouted. But soon, she realized this was not the time for casual bickering.

With a rotten smile, Xie Tianyang spoke in circles, “Edifice Lord Chu, you have no idea of the extent of that brat’s retribution. By the time you find out, you’ll be left in tears. He-he-he…”

Chu Qingcheng watched the arena mystified.

At the same time, Huangpu Qingyun and Zhuo Fan turned towards the terrace as if in sync.

Huangpu Qingyun was worried Chu Qingcheng would stick out for Zhuo Fan. He didn’t want to fight her and now he could finally put this worry to rest. Meanwhile, Zhuo Fan was even more concerned. If Chu Qingcheng stood up, his plan would go up in smokes.

Two rivals were actually willing to pause over a woman.

“Brat, it’s time you pay for my 7th brother’s misery with your life!”

Suddenly, Hell Valley’s 5th elder charged Zhuo Fan. His body exploded with power and ignited into a scarlet flame as he swung at Zhuo Fan.

The fist was filled with rage and thrown in haste, but it kicked up a storm. Zhuo Fan couldn’t even breathe from its power, as if a mountain was crushing him.

[5th layer of Profound Heaven Stage, and a body cultivator too!]

His pupils contracting, he although had an inkling of the man’s power, it exceeded his expectations.

Despite being a Profound Heaven expert as well, he was in a different league from You Guiqi. Zhuo Fan weighed it thoroughly and came to the conclusion he was far from this man’s match in body power.

[But everyone has a shortcoming. Your flesh might be steel, but I have two blades behind me!]

With savagery in his eyes, Zhuo Fan stood his ground. The Lightning Wings warped into sickles and attacked 5th elder.

One hacked the flaming fist, the other his face.

Zhuo Fan was willing to accept this heavy wound if it meant the death of his opponent.

Seeing the incoming sickle, 5th elder stomped. With an explosion, he stopped in his tracks and flew backward.

The wings missed and with a boom, a 5 meter hole was left behind three meters from 5th elder.

Wisps of black smoke drifted above the hole.

Feeling the icy sweat trickling down his head, 5th elder expression turned grave. He no longer charged recklessly.

He now knew how You Guiqi met his end.

[This brat is too vicious. Not only to his enemies, but even to himself.] It may look advantageous exchanging a wound for a kill, but he would open himself to others, a pig ready to be slaughtered.

To make such a savage decision in a split second showed how cunning and ruthless he was!

The 5th elder was beginning to worry about the upcoming battle. What if the brat up and chose to take them both down?

Such an ending would be meaningless.

The worried people on the terrace watched in shock. [Is this the rumored demon Zhuo Fan? He is indeed a monstrosity.]

Yet, the women from Drifting Flowers Edifice came to find he was sporting one hell of a domineering air.

In this state, where Zhuo Fan was the weakest in terms of cultivation and number, he exuded the aura of the strongest, one who looked down on others with pride.

While Huangpu Qingyun’s team, the one with higher cultivation and number, was bleak and distressed. Their stance looked to be the weakest of the two sides!

The previous exchange between 5th elder and Zhuo Fan was the perfect example. Zhuo Fan was willing to bet his life while 5th elder wasn’t quite up to terms with staking his life on one strike. It ended as it played, with 5th elder terrified and Zhuo Fan winning.

[I was the one to attack first but ended up scared by his sickles. How mortifying!]

“This is how a man should be, brave. I finally found a real man. How great that he is also my husband…” Xiao Dandan was love-struck, with only him in her ever infatuated eyes.

Chu Qingcheng shook her head but was feeling her fair share of growing feelings as well. [Yes, this is how my husband should be, an undefeated hero!]

In the arena, 5th elder was aware of the humiliation. He was pissed, but he stayed put. Zhuo Fan grinned and placed the Bodhi Root in his Thunder Ring, “Yours truly shall no longer entertain you, buh-bye!”

Zhuo Fan punctuated with a stomp and took flight. His wings shot him high in the sky.

“Where do you think you’re going?”

Snorting, 5th elder stomped as well, chasing after him. In mere seconds, he overtook Zhuo Fan.

Zhuo Fan however, expected this and the Lightning Wings shifted into whips as they lashed at him, “Get lost!”

“Humph, you little prick, you think you’re the only one with demonic treasures?”

5th elder had come prepared. His hand suddenly held an enormous scarlet hammer. He used both his hands to swing it at Zhuo Fan, “If you’ve got the guts, let’s see you bet your life again!”

“A 5th-grade demonic treasure!”

Zhuo Fan gnashed his teeth and shifted his wings into shields.

With the enemy having a 5th-grade demonic treasure, exchanging a wound for a life was impossible now. His life might be the one to perish first.

Bam!

Zhuo Fan smashed into the ground like a meteor, picking up a cloud of dust. When it cleared, it revealed the crumbled stage.

Chu Qingcheng and the others were alarmed. Xiao Dandan even jumped to search for his body, but Peony Overseer caught her before she could do it.

Long Jiu’s group was looking grave.

Hell Valley’s 5th elder was a body cultivator. If this hammer strike hadn’t outright killed Zhuo Fan, it would definitely leave a mark. If the situation worsened, they would have no choice but offend Regent Estate and join the fight.

5th elder floated down and smashed the ground with his hammer, making the earth quake three times.

Huangpu Qingyun eyed the ruins, then the proud 5th elder and cackled, “Ha-ha-ha, 5th elder is indeed Hell Valley’s expert body cultivator. Your art is as strong as Regent Estate’s Imperial Tyrant Body Art.”

“You’re too kind, second young master, ha-ha-ha…” 5th elder faked modesty. He had always been confident of his body cultivation method. Huangpu Qingyun’s words of praises made his heart pump with pride.

Huangpu Qingyun turned to the ruins again with a chuckle, “With 5th elder’s strength, that brat must be close to dying if not dead already. Could I ask a favor from 5th elder? If he’s still alive, allow me to exact revenge for your valley’s 7th elder.”

Huangpu Qingyun’s eyes flashed with naked killing intent.

5th elder knew he was after this all along and didn’t hurt earning his favor over such a small matter. He laughed, “Others are unworthy, but if it’s the second young master’s request, please do not hesitate to do it. But I would like to return to Hell Valley with his head.”

“I will never forget 5th elder’s dutiful act!”

Huangpu Qingyun then walked towards the ruins with killing intent.

Since ancient times, one mountain wasn’t big enough for two tigers. [This is your fate, that I will wring the life out of you to ease my heart.]

Chu Qingcheng’s group stared in anxiety and worry that he would kill Zhuo Fan.

“Uncle Jiu, do we attack?” Chu Qingcheng asked impatiently.

But Long Jiu’s lone eye stared at the ruins, still ruminating. This only worked to add more pressure on Chu Qingcheng…
