Chapter 426 Sun Luote’s Turn
“What’s going on? How did Xiong Chu get injured?” asked the Demon juniors, puzzled.
Even the victim himself looked confused.
“I clearly withstood all of her attacks. Why am I still injured?” asked Xiong Chu, unable to accept his current state.
Immediately following that, wounds began to open on various parts of Xiong Chu’s body, causing blood to gush uncontrollably again.
The wounds were twisted lines as though they had been sliced by some sharp blade. They covered every part of his body, giving him a terrifying look.
A smile that had not appeared on Luo Yufei’s face for a long time appeared on her face. “This feeling of getting a million cuts must be terrible!”
“My nomological law is called the Law of Fission. It allows one to produce infinite fission of sword energy into countless tiny streaks of sword energy.
“In scientific terms, these strands of sword energy are even smaller than molecules.
“Your physical defense is indeed invincible. With my current strength, there’s no way I can break it.
“However, as long as you are made of flesh and blood, there will definitely be pores on the surface of your body. As long as I can shrink the sword’s energies enough to pa.s.s through the pores and enter your body, I will definitely be able to injure you from inside out.”
Xiong Chu cackled sinisterly. “Do you really think you can defeat me by injuring me?”
Luo Yufei said calmly, “I never thought of defeating you, but don’t even think about winning so easily. By severely wounding you, I’ve already achieved my goal.”
Xiong Chu laughed.
“Severely wounding me?
“Hahaha!
“Looks like wounding me gave you a lot of confidence!”
Xiong Chu stopped laughing. Although the blood was still gus.h.i.+ng from various wounds on his body, the calm expression on his face made it seem like he had deliberately let Luo Yufei injure him.
Luo Yufei’s expression darkened. “To be honest, your Law of Fission is very interesting. This is the first time I’m encountering one. “This move alone puts you on par with the geniuses of the first-tier factions.
“If your comprehension of the Law of Fission had been a little more profound, you might have been able to inflict heavy damage on me. However, all you can say you’ve done now is injure me.”
With that, Xiong Chu emanated an extremely terrifying aura, as though a thundercloud that had been gathered for a long time was about to explode.
In the next second, a clap of thunder resounded through the sky. Countless bolts of lightning shot out of Xiong Chu’s body.
At this moment, the clear sky was filled with bolts of lightning, as though doomsday had arrived.
“As expected of a genius who is of the bloodline of the Thunderstorm King Bear. With such powerful lightning power, even the top 50 of the Chosen Roll might not be able to defeat him.”
Xu Longfei sighed as he gazed at Xiong Chu, who was enveloped by lightning.
The Supreme Venerable Elder could only sigh and shake his head.
He felt that Xiong Chu alone was invincible among the sect’s disciples at the same cultivation level.
Luo Yufei stared at Xiong Chu in shock, her previous confidence completely shattered.
When the lightning dissipated, Xiong Chu’s wounds vanished as though he had never been injured.
Xiong Chu cultivated the Law of Lightning, which possessed terrifying destructive power.
As soon as the Law of Lightning erupted, they instantly disintegrated the tiny streaks of sword energy in his body.
“See that?! This is the difference between us.
“If I wanted to kill you, you would have been long gone.
“Thankfully, I have principles. You are very lucky that I do not kill women, “said Xiong Chu solemnly. Luo Yufei’s lips trembled. Although she was indignant, she still blurted out, “I… lost!”
With that, she fell.
The Supreme Venerable Elder swiftly caught her with his dharmic powers.
At this moment, Luo Yufei’s body was very weak, and she had lost consciousness.
The Supreme Venerable Elder was very satisfied with her performance. She had already performed beyond her usual limits, and the fact that she could last this long was already beyond her physical limits.
“I hereby announce the victor of the first match, the Demon race wins!” declared the Supreme Venerable Elder.
The news of the Luo Ding Sect’s first defeat quickly spread across the Immortal realm.
Some of the factions that had investigated the Demon race’s lineup were unsurprised by this outcome.
Similarly, they did not hold much hope for the Luo Ding Sect.
After all, the Luo Ding Sect was only a second-tier faction. Even if they were considered to be at the top of the second-tier, they didn’t have as many resources and reserves as a first-tier organization. It made sense for them to lose. After the first match, the second match would commence.
Xu Longfei and the Supreme Venerable Elder were confident that they could win this match.
The Demon selected for this match wasn’t particularly strong, but their disciple was.
As expected, he easily won.
As Xiong Chu had not dealt a fatal blow to Luo Yufei during the first match, Xu Longfei had warned his disciples to spare their opponents’ lives before the match began. Xu Longfei was tactful in his way of doing things.
If it had been any other organization, with no regard for whether the Demons had held back or not, they would simply slaughter them.
Lu Wei was quite satisfied with that.
If the Luo Ding Sect showed no mercy, the Demon race would really go on a killing spree in the following rounds.
The victory in the second match boosted the morale and confidence of the disciples from the Luo Ding Sect.
The Immortal realm was also full of praises for the Luo Ding Sect. They were especially happy to have won the Demons.
Soon, the third match began. The disciple of the Luo Ding Sect suffered a huge defeat. Fortunately, Lu Wei had instructed him in advance, or someone would have died.
Xu Longfei was very grateful.
The reason why Lu Wei had asked his juniors to show mercy was that he acknowledged Xu Longfei’s character.
In the following matches, the Luo Ding Sect suffered more defeats than victories.
They were well aware of their situation.
When the disciples who had to have their turn saw their fellow disciples getting bullied, the fighting spirit they had earlier vanished. Soon, the Demon race’s challenge was coming to an end, and only Qin Chuan and Sun Luote were left.
The Luo Ding Sect had won quite a number of matches by now, four of them.
In the upcoming two rounds, however, the Demons were especially strong.
Especially Peng Yuhui, who was of the bloodline of the Golden-Winged Rocs.
Everyone knew that there was no need to fight in this match; they just had to announce the opponent’s victory.
Right now, the one who should be taking the field was Sun Luote.
His opponent was Langtuck, who was of the Howling Moon Heavenly Wolf Bloodline and was even stronger than Xiong Chu.
No one held any hope for this battle. Some of the disciples were even feeling rather gleeful and hoped that Sun Luote would die. However, since the Sect Master was present, they dared not show these thoughts. “Sun Luote, your opponent is strong, but don’t put too much pressure on yourself. Just perform well. Even if you lose, I won’t blame you,” said Xu Longfei.
At the same time, he swept his gaze across the disciples beside him and said sternly, “I know that apart from Qin Xiaochan, all of you detested and ostracized Sun Luote because of his birth.
“As fellow disciples, I’m really disappointed in you for doing this. “Once this challenge ends, I will definitely punish you guys. You better be prepared.”
The disciples lowered their heads in silence.
Seeing this, Sun Luote immediately said, “Sect Master, actually, my senior brothers and sisters have been taking good care of me. It’s just that I’m a bit of a loner and have social phobia. I hope Sect Master you don’t blame them.”
Xu Longfei snorted. “You don’t have to plead on their behalf. I’m well aware of how they treat you.
“Your task now is to perform well on stage. Even if you lose, you have to lose beautifully”
Even though Xu Longfei seemed approachable and tactful, he still had the command as the head of a sect.
“Yes, Sir!” said Sun Luote, not daring to plead again. Before going down, Qin Chuan patted Sun Luote on the shoulder to encourage him. “All the best!”
Sun Luote nodded. “Thank you, Junior Brother Qin.”
With that, he left.
“For the sake of the sect’s honor, I’m definitely going to win this fight,” said Sun Luote, cheering himself on.
His opponent, Langtuck, was already below.
From above, Lu Wei stopped beside Xu Longfei. “Sect Master Xu, I have heard of this disciple before.
“From the looks of it, he’s not having a good time in your sect. If possible, I plan to bring him back to the Demon realm.”
[ Se
Xu Longfei said with a polite smile, “Let’s drop the matter, Demon Emperor Lu!”
Xu Longfei rejected him decisively.
He knew what he was up to.
Lu Wei smiled. “Don’t turn me down so quickly, Sect Master Xu.
“I hope you can consider it.”
With that, Lu Wei returned to the other side and turned his gaze to Sun Luote.
“Who would have thought?! This fellow actually has a hint of the aura of a Primordial Chaos Demonic Ape. I wonder how pure his bloodline is?”
