Chapter 2563: The Battle

Yun Yanli’s Kung Fu was at the level of a Great Deity. In order to test out his strength, he once snuck into heaven and challenged the Great Deities anonymously. He had faced all of them, except Shen Jiuli, Ning Xueno, and the current Emperor Immortal. The result was satisfactory to him as he had defeated all of the ones he challenged. No one was able to beat him, not even the Lords who had ascended from the Earth.

Back then, he was worried that his cover might be blown, so every ambush was a quick one. He attacked, he fought, he won, and he left. As for those Great Deities who had unfortunately been defeated, they were too embarrassed to admit defeat and decided not to mention a word about the incident. Therefore, Yun Yanli was never quite fully satisfied with his victories, as no one knew who the mysterious man actually was.

For the first time, he finally had the ability to show his true power in front of his people and his beloved woman. If he could beat Di Fuyi, the audience around him would certainly recognize his victory.

Yun Yanli knew nothing about Di Fuyi’s past on Earth. He would not care even if he did. How powerful could a Lord from the Earth possibly be? He had defeated quite a number of Lords before. Moreover, Di Fuyi had just been through the catastrophe and advanced to the level of a Great Deity. Yun Yanli also assumed that a child like Di Fuyi would not have the strength to fight him, even if his spiritual power had increased.

It was the perfect chance for him to defeat Di Fuyi if he were ever to do it. He looked at Di Fuyi fixedly and scornfully said, “I challenge you to a fight! No one is allowed to leave until someone is victorious! Anyone who runs will be forever labeled as a coward!”

He was not too worried about settling Di Fuyi. In fact, he was more concerned that Gu Xijiu would teleport and save him at a critical time. Therefore, he wanted to make his point absolutely clear.

Frowningly, she stared at Di Fuyi. She was never worried about his strength. What she was worried about was his health. After all, he had just survived a catastrophe, so he was probably still weak. It would be a disadvantage for him to fight at this very moment.

However, before she even voiced out her concern, Di Fuyi was already reassuring her, “Baby, what do you want me to do with him? Should I kill him right away or make him crippled?”

Surprised, Gu Xijiu looked at him with admiration. Their eyes met, and with one look, Gu Xijiu could immediately tell that he aimed to win the fight. She was slightly relieved. “Celestial Master Zuo, do as you wish! I have no preference,” she said with a sweet smile.

She called him by his name in the past, and Di Fuyi liked it very much. He proceeded to kiss her forehead. “All right! Stay here. I shall make him pay for what he did to you.”

He then gave her a packet of dried fruits as a snack. “These fruits taste quite nice. You will like it. Try. Snack a little while you watch the fight.”

“Great!” Gu Xijiu took the packet of dried fruits and stood back.

Di Fuyi flicked his sleeves, as a sign of him getting ready to fight. He threw a stern look at Yun Yanli and said, “Yun Yanli, your father had misused his authority, which ended up in him being defeated. However, his children should never be burdened by his sin. If you chose to cultivate in a proper way, you would always have been welcome into heaven. You should never have used this selfish and evil way of cultivation, which sacrificed millions of lives for the sake of your success. I am taking this matter into my own hands and will restore the peace here.”

He did not speak loudly, but everyone in the square had heard him. The people were astonished. They had only recently suspected that the disasters in the Shura World must have something to do with the Star Formation.
