An elder wearing a dark green robe slowly emerged from the Feng Family"s group of guards. He held an imperious expression, his smile hovering between disdain and malevolence."You"re all useless trash. You even need me to step in. That"s like using a huge machete to kill a tiny rat!" The elder swaggered along leisurely, his tone full of smug confidence as if killing Wei Zihou was a piece of cake.
The whole atmosphere grew heavy at his words. A formidable aura radiated out from him.
That formidable energy instantly decreased the air pressure of the surroundings, making breathing extremely difficult. A black light glowed subtly, carrying with it a terrifying power…
"Black…. black aura…" Someone exclaimed.
A single stone could stir up a thousand waves.
Everyone was thunderstruck on the spot.
A black aura cultivator. He was the elite of the elite across all four nations. You would barely find another in the whole of Western Chu!
"Wei Zihou, so what if you were given a new breath of life? You will still die at the hands of the Feng Family!" Feng Meier smiled joyously. Her eyes lit up with glee as if she could already picture Wei Zihou"s death.
She would never allow another woman to be more beautiful than her! Never!
The rage in Chu Yixuan"s gradually calmed, as he felt a satisfaction borne of revenge. With Elder Qing personally overseeing this, Wei Zihou was a dead woman walking. Humph, this is what you deserve for offending me. Nevertheless, it"s still a waste of that beautiful face…
"Girl, do you want to make the first move or shall I?" Elder Qing crossed his hands behind his back leisurely. In his eyes, the taking of Wei Zihou"s life was not worth his time and effort!
"Of course I will make the first move…" Zihou remained calm even in the face of Elder Qing"s powerful aura. She raised her brows in a meaningful smile.
"You do have some smarts about you. Make your move then!" Elder Qing urged her with a sneer.
"… to kill you!" Zihou had paused to allow Elder Qing to speak, before finis.h.i.+ng her sentence.
"What?" Elder Qing was momentarily stunned before realization dawned on his wrinkled face. He had been duped!
His face turned grave and a deadly look surfaced. "How dare you, you little punk! I will tear you to pieces today!"
Before he even finished his words, he had already morphed into a powerful gale of wind tunneling straight toward Zihou. The formidable force was like a potent and unstoppable black streak. No one doubted that Zihou was doomed!
Nevertheless, Zihou maintained her faint smile in the face of this ferocious attack, as if she was above it all. Those who didn"t know better might have thought she was secretly an all-powerful pract.i.tioner. One who usually kept out of the spotlight, but when incensed, could turn the heavens and earth upside down!
"Shameless braggart!" A thunderous cry resounded in the ears of the crowd. It was closely followed by a black streak flas.h.i.+ng by—it was the black aura pract.i.tioner Elder Qing being thrown into the ground!
Everyone was thunderstruck!
Who the h.e.l.l was it who could beat the black aura cultivator Elder Qing to the ground with just one move?
Another black streak flashed by and in the next second, Wei Guoting"s tall, strapping figure appeared in front of Zihou. His long white hair and beard flowed in the wind as he spoke scornfully toward Elder Qing. "d.a.m.n old fool. How dare you try and attack my granddaughter. I must teach you a lesson today, or you will really think you are all that!"
The mighty dominance of Wei Guoting!
Zihou inwardly gave Wei Guoting a big thumbs-up. She realized that under her gradual influence, the previously stern-faced elder was slowly becoming a lovable old man.
"Black aura? You"re a black aura cultivator?" Elder Qing was collapsed on the ground in a wretched state, a major contrast from his earlier smug stance. He pointed one finger at Wei Guoting, his face full of disbelief. Not only was Wei Guoting also a black aura pract.i.tioner, but he was also a level two—one level higher than him!
How could Wei Guoting be a black aura cultivator? Elder Qing clearly remembered that Wei Guoting had been stuck at the peak level of the purple aura for years!
Feng Yuanzheng"s face had turned very grim. He had been so bold as to swagger up to the Wei"s residence to settle his score, only because the Wei Family had no black aura cultivator. Now that Wei Guoting had attained black aura status, things were no longer looking good for Feng Yuanzheng!
"I already knew you guys would be sniffing at my door today like a bunch of noisy dogs. So I attained the black aura status yesterday, just waiting for you to come to seek your own deaths!" The old man sneered arrogantly.
The old man"s words instantly boosted the confidence of the Wei Family"s guards. They regained their courage, which had deflated by the appearance of their opponent"s black aura cultivator.
This was awesome. Their Martyr General"s estate finally had a black aura cultivator. No one would ever dare look down on the Wei Family again!
Feng Yuanzheng nearly puked blood at the old man"s preposterous claims. Wei Guoting already knew they would seek the Wei Family out today, so he attained the black aura status yesterday, just so he could beat them up?
Ridiculous!
"Haha, you only attained the black aura yesterday, why should I be afraid of you! Wei Guoting, I will show you today what is the true power of a black aura!" Elder Qing laughed maniacally as his fear of Wei Guoting gradually faded. Elder Qing had attained the black aura three years ago and understood its power much more than Wei Guoting. He had just been caught unawares by Wei Guoting"s sneak attack earlier!
With that, Elder Qing leaped up into the air and flew toward Wei Guoting.
Wei Guoting knew well enough that he had to be careful in the face of Elder Qing"s attack. Wei Guoting just attained the black aura yesterday, and his aura had yet to stabilize. In addition, he did not possess a deep understanding of its power yet, and so wouldn"t dare to underestimate his opponent. Luckily, he was still one level higher than Elder Qing, and so he was not too worried.
The collateral damage caused by the battle between two black aura pract.i.tioners would be extensive. There was no way Wei Guoting would allow anyone in the estate to be injured—as a result, he leaped high into the air.
"Mei-er, Seventh Prince, now that Wei Guoting is being kept busy by Elder Qing, it"s the best time to make our move. I will distract Wei s.h.i.+rong while you go kill Wei Zihou!" Without Wei Guoting to hold the fort, the Feng Family had the upper hand now. It would be a piece of cake to deal with that imbecile Wei Zihou.
As much as a person"s looks might change, he did not believe one"s ability could also improve that drastically. Mei-er was a level one blue aura while Seventh Prince was a level six blue aura. They were more than enough to deal with that Wei Zihou.
However, it was a fact that reality seldom met one"s expectations.
"Wei Zihou, I must kill you today, to avenge my brother!" Feng Meier inched toward Zihou with her sword extended in front of her.
"Wei Zihou, I must make you pay for all your past actions!" Chu Yixuan held a bloodthirsty expression as he radiated with a heavy blue aura.
"Level six blue aura. Seventh Prince is indeed a gifted genius." Zihou raised one brow as she complimented him. Just as Chu Yixuan was feeling smug at her praise, her next sentence nearly had him puking blood.
