Chapter 1076: Suppression!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“The second stage is also very simple.” Rong Xiu raised his hands.
A crack appeared in the middle of nowhere. Then, a gigantic, snow-white figure gradually walked out!
That was a white lion with a strong build! It had fur as white as snow, and only its eyes were ice-blue, which shone with a cold gleam.
Its aura was frightening as it walked toward Rong Xiu! When its claws landed on the ground, it was silent.
However, one could still faintly see its sharp claws.
‘When the lion walked to Rong Xiu, it obediently laid down. Its eyes that were filled with suppression, contempt, and murderous intent looked down from above as if it were looking at ants!
Everywhere it went, the coldness was suffocating!
The crowd instinctively held their breaths. This is a legendary fiend, and its cultivation level is extremely high!
“Xue Xue is my legendary fiend.” Rong Xiu gently ruffled Xue Xue’s head as he nonchalantly said, “Whoever can make it bow down will pa.s.s!”
Gasps could be heard in the palace! His Grace’s legendary fiend! Rumor has it that it’s ferocious, cold-blooded, and very strong! One just has to think to know how hard it will be to attack it! Those that are weak will only be courting death if they go up!
Some women already started to pale as they trembled slightly.
Originally, they thought that the contest would compare their family backgrounds, talents, and appearances. However, they didn’t expect that His Grace was so unconventional and wanted to compare this?!
“Oh my G.o.d—that’s a legendary fiend! Rumors have it that it can even attack legendary warriors! I’m only a peak stage-eight warrior. How can I be its match?!”
“L don’t even dare to do it, although I’m at stage-nine… I really don’t know what exactly His Grace is thinking…”
“It’ll be much easier if the person also has a legendary fiend, right?”
“That’s easy for you to say. How is it so easy to obtain a legendary fiend?”
“Us ordinary people don’t have to think about the position of princess consort. Only those few powerful divisions have such resources… For example, I heard that when Big Missy Jiang was ten, the Sky-Cloud Empire’s clan leader had personally captured a legendary fiend cub for her! We can’t ever catch up
with such luck!”
Quite a few people started whispering softly.
Jiang Zhiyuan heaved a sigh of relief. Xue Xue? That’s okay.
On the one hand, the legendary fiend she had wasn’t weaker than Xue Xue. On the other hand, she and Xue Xue could be considered old acquaintances, so it would naturally be easier for her to handle it than the rest.
Thinking of this, Jiang Zhiyuan stepped up first. “Your Highness, I’m willing to be the first one to try.”
As Chu Liuyue stared at Xue Xue lying beside Rong Xiu’s feet, her lips couldn’t help but twitch. So it left earlier to appear at this point? I really don’t know what these people’s reactions would be if they knew that this formidable white lion was still licking my face and wanting a hug from me the night
before.
Seeing that Jiang Zhiyuan planned to go up first, Chu Liuyue swiftly moved away.
Xue Xue immediately looked at her with grievances. I thought she was going to be first… If she directly takes action, won’t the second stage directly end?! Now, I still need to waste some time and be tortured.
Chu Liuyue completely ignored it as she smiled politely at Jiang Zhiyuan. “Big Missy Jiang, please—”
Then, she sat back on her seat and looked nonchalant.
Xue Xue silently glanced at its master. If it weren’t for you, would I have been implicated?! Hmph!
Rong Xiu gazed at it slightly. You only came back after I called you thrice. I wonder whose fiend you are.
Xue Xue sighed in its heart. If it’s not because I had bad eyesight then, why would I be so miserable now?
Rong Xiu raised his chin.
Xue Xue then stood up. We’ll talk after I settle these troubles!
Shua!
Xue Xue jumped up and flew to the center of the palace from the position above, landing around ten steps away from Jiang Zhiyuan. It had already retracted its willful expression and replaced it with overwhelming sternness.
Chu Liuyue watched on at the side and held her chin with one hand, finding it rather interesting. At this point, she then realized that such a big one was actually a legendary fiend. Speaking of which, I’ve never actually seen Xue Xue fight—all because it hid its true abilities like its master.
Thinking of this, Chu Liuyue raised her brows and was prepared to watch a good show.
“Xue Xue, long time no see.” A smile appeared on Jiang Zhiyuan’s face. She knew very clearly how highly Rong Xiu thought of this legendary fiend, so it was also important to have a good relations.h.i.+p with it.
However, Xue Xue seemed to ignore Jiang Zhiyuan’s plan of intimacy. It tilted its head, and annoyance appeared in its eyes as if it didn’t care about the ident.i.ty of the person in front of it and was even blaming her for not starting yet.
Its sharp claws scratched the ground, and a thin layer of frost rapidly formed!
It was preparing to go into battle!
Jiang Zhiyuan instantly felt very awkward, but she took a deep breath in and comforted herself. Perhaps it hasn’t seen me in a while, so it’s treating me like this.
However, she was still confident that she could make it bow down to her. Hence, she recollected her thoughts and breathed in to focus.
‘The next moment, blue force gathered in her palms! “Six-degree lock!”
The blue force instantly turned into six ropes as they flew toward Xue Xue and wrapped around it!
In the blink of an eye, the six ropes had already formed a gigantic hexagon above Xue Xue. Within it, the light rays shone and very quickly formed a strange pattern!
“It’s the totem of Fairy Water Mound’s Jiang family!” someone from the audience cried out. “It looks like she’s bent on winning this! She even summoned the totem!”
“This six-degree lock is one of Fairy Water Mound’s trump cards! It looks simple, but the seal suppression is extremely strong! Rumor has it that even if one is a cultivation level lower than the other party, one can still use this move to lock the other party deadly! Then, they can carry out their retaliation!”
“It’s great to use this move to handle this stage!”
“If Jiang Zhiyuan directly wins like this, the remaining people don’t have to go up…”
Jiang Zhiyuan stared at the white lion. “Xue Xue, I can stop if you surrender now.”
That would be great for both of us.
Xue Xue glanced at her, and contempt flashed across its eyes. Admit defeat? Isn’t she overestimating herself? Six-degree lock? What a joke!
Xue Xue lifted its paws and swung them down harshly.
Countless rays of lights flew across!
Chu! Chu! Chu!
‘The crowd instantly heard something piercing through! Then, they saw that the six-degree lock circulating above Xue Xue’s head was directly cut open from the middle!
All the light on it rapidly dimmed!
The force in Jiang Zhiyuan’s chest turned over! She staggered backward and almost directly fell to the ground!
She stared at Xue Xue in shock. How did its abilities suddenly improve by so much?!
Xue Xue bared its teeth and hit her with its claw! Do you really think that I ate so much sand for nothing?!
