1509 Planet Fission
Dragon Dou immediately brought Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha to the back of the school. There was a large square made from alloy there. It was covered in holes and craters, as if it had been through some very powerful impacts.
In the distance was a fat youth. He appeared seventeen or eighteen, and he had a proud expression. Behind him were two muscular men. Based on the uniforms they were wearing, they were from the Moon Clan.
“Moon Dongchen! I’ve brought them! You wait right there!” Dragon Dou shouted.
Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha both scowled. This didn’t feel very right.
Xia Fan asked and learned that Dragon Dou and Moon Dongchen had arranged to have a fight, and Dragon Dou had brought him and Traveling Buddha over to fight for him. As for the reason behind the fight, it seemed to be that Moon Dongchen and Dragon Dou were squabbling over some pretty girl.
!!
In the last fight, Dragon Dou had suffered a huge loss. His few formidable subordinates had all been crippled by Moon Dongchen’s Pang brothers, so he desperately needed new fighters from the City of the Four Kings. He had just so happened to come across Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan.
And thus, the moment Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan arrived at the G.o.d Metropolis, he called them over to fight for him.
After hearing about what was going on, Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan were both incensed and amused. They were both elite individuals of the Inner Territories, yet they were now partic.i.p.ating in a romantic rivalry between children!
Traveling Buddha was about to turn and leave when Xia Fan pulled him back. He whispered, “This is a chance to see what the people of the G.o.d Metropolis are capable of. Look at the two Pang brothers. They’re thick with that murderous aura. It’s a little strange.”
Traveling Buddha was startled and carefully inspected the Pang brothers thereafter. Sure enough, they had callous and pale faces. In addition to their murderous aura, their bodies also radiated a power that Traveling Buddha didn’t quite understand.
In truth, the moment they entered this star system, Traveling Buddha had felt that there was something wrong about the entire system. Perhaps it was because of the demonic power that Loulin had spoken of. But what exactly was that demonic power, the dark energy? Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan weren’t too sure.
On the other end, Dragon Dou and Moon Dongchen were already starting to insult one another. They were mediocre members of their respective families, but humans were a strange species. It was often the case that those who lacked the strength were often less self-aware, while the true experts were very inconspicuous.
“Then come on and fight already! Pang Chun, Pang Qiu, kill those two!” Moon Dongchen pointed at Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha and ordered the two muscular men behind him.
Pang Chun and Pang Qiu were like zombies. After receiving Moon Dongchen’s order, they approached Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan. They had long hair that was bundled up on the top of their heads like two large black jars, a most bizarre look.
Suddenly, the Pang brothers accelerated in unison, charging at Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan.
The two of them had intimidating auras, but Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha were a famous duo of the Starcloud Union, so they weren’t easy to deal with, either. In the blink of an eye, Xia Fan wrangled with Pang Chun, while Traveling Buddha took on Pang Qiu.
Xia Fan’s initial acceleration speed left the Pang brothers aghast.
The current Xia Fan’s progress in speed could be described as one thousand kilometers per day. Half a month ago, Xia Fan’s speed had been at about 2000 meters per second, but he was now at more than 2500 meters per second, and that was with him not using the Immortal Wine. If he let everything go and focused entirely on crazily improving himself, he would be able to break into the Star Domain rank in no time!
“It’s a Speed Sky Venerable!” the Pang brothers cried out.
By the time they realized that Xia Fan was a Speed Sky Venerable, it was already too late. Xia Fan gave a sharp punch to Pang Chun’s chest.
At 2500 meters a second, a punch with Xia Fan’s strength was an explosive blow of incomparable power.
With one punch, Pang Chun was sent flying. He flew a hundred meters through the air before finally cras.h.i.+ng into the ground.
On the other end, while Traveling Buddha was a little slower, his fists were stronger. After all, he was no longer the Battle Buddha, but the second tier of the Holy Buddha Clan, a Killer Buddha!
When the Killer Buddha emerged, not even a corpse would be left!
Rumble!
Vigorous power pounded the ground like a shooting star, smas.h.i.+ng into Pang Qiu and causing him to throw up blood. He collapsed to the ground and was instantly rendered immobile.
The spectating Moon Dongchen and Dragon Dou were completely dumbfounded. Dragon Dou had only heard that Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan were formidable, killing someone the moment they arrived at the City of the Four Kings, with that old ancestor having to intervene to capture them.
But he had never imagined that they were this formidable!
The Advanced Star Domain rank Pang Chun and Pang Qiu hadn’t been able to take even one blow from them!
Moreover, not only were they formidable, they were ruthless! They had held nothing back, their moves seeking to kill!
One was a Speed Sky Venerable, and the other was a Killer Buddha! He had gotten a real treasure this time!
Dragon Du was delighted, thinking that no one would dare to mess with him in the future!
As for Moon Dongchen, he was scared into wide-eyed shock. He wasn’t very capable and had completely relied on the formidable power of the Pang brothers. Now that he was facing these two ruthless fellows, running off was his only choice!
Dragon Dou looked at Moon Dongchen’s fleeing figure in derision, but when he turned around, he saw Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan squatting on the ground and inspecting the half-dead Pang brothers.
The hair bundles of the Pang brothers had come apart, revealing the black horns on their heads. This left Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan in disbelief. They were clearly humans, so why did they have horns like devils? What had happened here?
“What are you looking at?” Dragon Dou ran over and asked in confusion.
“Why do they have horns on their heads?” Xia Fan frowned.
Dragon Dou nonchalantly replied, “What’s wrong with horns? Look, I have them too. All the people of the G.o.d Metropolis have horns.”
Dragon Dou parted his hair, revealing a little black horn on his head, although it was smaller than those of the Pang brothers.
…
Dragon Dou had won back his dignity and was elated. He took Traveling Buddha and Xia Fan out to eat at a rather luxurious restaurant. The table was laden with gourmet dishes.
Looking at the food on the table, Traveling Buddha frowned and said, “Why is there no wine? I want to have two cups today.”
“Alright, I’ll go and get someone to get a good wine from my house. The wine at this restaurant is much worse than my family’s.” Dragon Dou eagerly ran out to order a servant to get some wine.
“It’s all meat? There’s nothing a bit lighter?” Xia Fan asked.
Dragon Dou eagerly went off to order vegetables and cuc.u.mbers.
In short, he was a little over-excited. The astonis.h.i.+ng combat power the duo had displayed had made Dragon Dou see them in a new light, even revering them a little. No matter what Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha asked of him, he would immediately do it. It was hard to tell who was the master and who was the servant.
Traveling Buddha wasn’t happy. Ever since he had learned that the G.o.d Metropolis’s mysterious energy would cause humans to grow horns, he was stroking his head for fear of a sudden bulge. Xia Fan was less worried about that, but he was rather astonished at the strange phenomena taking place in the G.o.d Metropolis.
Traveling Buddha drank until midnight, but he still wasn’t happy. Xia Fan accompanied him in drinking. In any case, it was very difficult to get drunk at their rank.
Suddenly amid the bright moon and spa.r.s.e stars, a brilliant light exploded, engulfing the G.o.d Metropolis in white. It was as if the sun had risen once more, switching places with the moon.
Xia Fan asked Dragon Dou in surprise, “What’s going on there?”
Dragon Dou looked up at the night sky, acting as if this was a common occurrence. “It’s nothing, only a Planet Fission. Originally, the G.o.d Metropolis had only seven planets, but ever since that mysterious energy entered one hundred years ago, the stars have changed. The planets will fission, producing new planetary bodies.
“In the past, there would be a Planet Fission every few months, but the fission frequency has been picking up in the last few years. It’s now happening twice or three times a week.”
Xia Fan and Traveling Buddha were stunned. It turned out that the G.o.d Metropolis originally had only seven planets. The constant fission process that had begun one hundred years ago had led to thousands of planetary bodies? This was too bizarre, like they were going through cell division!
Dragon Dou added, “Actually, Planet Fission isn’t that big of a deal. What’s really scary is that new life is constantly being born on those planets, Centipede Snow Beasts, Human-Face Snake Spirits, and so on. In any case, there’s all kinds of strange things. Even we humans have started to grow horns!”
