Chapter 3578: Three Versus One
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Swordsman Chu was a veteran Nine Star G.o.d of War in the Nine Serenities Battlefield. His strength was on par with Yue Chao Qun, the Temple Master of the t.i.tle Temple branch in the Ten Thousand Beasts Heaven. If he suddenly vanished from the Nine Serenities Battlefield for a long time, most people would have guessed he had attained G.o.dhood. Since he spent a lot of time in the Nine Serenities Battlefield and was quite active, he was rather famous.
On the contrary, it had been a long time since Yue Chao Qun entered the Nine Serenities Battlefield. Hence, most people thought he had attained G.o.dhood. Hence, when people discovered his ident.i.ty, they were rather shocked.
“I thought Yue Chao Qun had attained G.o.dhood since he hasn’t come here in a very long time. I guess I was wrong…”
“He’s rather old now, right? It seems like he doesn’t have a very high chance of attaining G.o.dhood…”
“So what? Even if he can’t attain G.o.dhood, as a Nine Star G.o.d of War, he stands at the peak of all Devata Realms!”
At this moment, the atmosphere had turned rather tense as the crowd’s eyes darted between the two veterans of the Nine Serenities Battlefield, Yue Chao Qun and Swordsman Chu, and the two true disciples of two Heavenly Emperors respectively, Duan Ling Tian and Ji Ying. However, when they looked at Swordsman Chu, their eyes shone with suspicion.
“Hey, do you think Swordsman Chu came to help Ji Ying?”
“Who knows? There’s a chance he only came to watch the show as he said earlier. However, if Ji Ying invited him here then Duan Ling Tian won’t stand a chance…”
“But… Duan Ling Tian doesn’t seem afraid at all…”
“Perhaps, he’s just putting on a front. It’s also possible that he doesn’t know Yue Chao Qun…”
While the crowd was fervently discussing among themselves, a slight frown appeared on Yue Chao Qun’s face as though there was something troubling him. He had sent a message to Mi Xuan when Ji Ying looked for him earlier. However, up until now, there was no response from Mi Xuan at all.
“Lord Mi Xuan, Duan Ling Tian is now at the Given Alliance base. Please respond to me when you receive my message.” Yue Chao Qun sent another message to Mi Xuan. However, just like before, he still did not receive a reply. Although he was perplexed, he quickly dismissed this matter. After all, it was possible that Mi Xuan, being as arrogant as he was, disdained to respond to his message and was already on his way back. Not even in his wildest dreams would he be able to imagine that Mi Xuan could not reply to him even if he wanted.
…
Mi Xuan’s physical body, which belonged to Tang San Pao, had been destroyed by Duan Ling Tian. He had escaped in his soul form using a secret art and was healing himself at a remote corner of the Nine Serenities Battlefield. Although he received Yue Chao Qun’s message, there was no way for him to respond since he did not have a physical body.
“It’s over for them,” Mi Xuan muttered to himself when he received Yue Chao Qun’s message again. Having fought with Duan Ling Tian previously, he had no doubt that even if Yue Chao Qun joined forces with Ji Ying, they were no match for Duan Ling Tian at all.
With Duan Ling Tian’s current strength and the prominent divine artifact with an artifact soul, not many Nine Star G.o.ds of War were a match for him.
…
Yue Chao Qun, who was unaware of Mi Xuan’s thoughts, studied Duan Ling Tian who was standing across from him. In fact, this was not his first time meeting Duan Ling Tian. He had seen Duan Ling Tian during the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. At that time, Duan Ling Tian was just a junior; to think Duan Ling Tian now had the strength to fight him.
When Duan Ling Tian took a closer look at Yue Chao Qun, he found him somewhat familiar as well. Given Mi Xuan’s ident.i.ty, he knew he must have seen Yue Chao Qun during the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. He did not pay much attention to Yue Chao Qun at that time. After all, there were G.o.ds present at that time.
When Duan Ling Tian finally spoke, he ignored Ji Ying’s words and said, “Why don’t both of you come at me at once?”
Unlike the crowd who were still busy speculating among themselves, Duan Ling Tian had no doubts that Yue Chao Qun was sent here to deal with him. He only grew more certain when he heard that Yue Chao Qun had not been in the Nine Serenities Battlefield for a long time prior to this.
Duan Ling Tian did not speak loudly, but everyone heard his words.
Not only did Ji Ying and Yue Chao Qun’s expressions turn grave, but Swordsman Chu’s expression turned slightly solemn as well.
As for the crowd, they broke into an uproar immediately. Many of them shook their heads when they looked at him.
“Did Duan Ling Tian just tell Ji Ying and Yue Chao Qun to fight him together?”
“Is he mad? Even if he’s a Nine Star G.o.d of War, how can he fight against two Nine Star G.o.ds of War? Moreover, they’ve been Nine Stars G.o.d of War longer than him…”
“Did his ego grow after he became a Nine Star G.o.d of War? Perhaps, he thinks he’s invincible under the heavens now?”
“In the Nine Serenities Battlefield, those who can fight against Ji Ying and Yue Chao Qun at once can be counted on one hand. They’re mostly just a step away from attaining G.o.dhood.”
“Duan Ling Tian is still young, after all. As they say, the young know no fear.”
On the contrary, the other three Nine Star G.o.ds of War did not take Duan Ling Tian’s words lightly.
Finally, Ji Ying said with a dark expression as he stepped forward, “Duan Ling Tian, I hope your confidence matches your strength. Today, I will kill you here to avenge my junior brother!”
Yue Chao Qun began to make a move as well.
Another commotion broke out.
“So Yue Chao Qun is really here to help Ji Ying?”
“Put Duan Ling Tian’s arrogance aside, don’t you think these two people are rather shameless?”
“They must have been colluding for a long time!”
Many people stared at Duan Ling Tian unblinkingly, wanting to see if his confidence matched his strength.
At this time, Yue Chao Qun said icily, “Duan Ling Tian, today I’ll teach you a lesson on behalf of your master!”
“Teach me a lesson?” Duan Ling Tian said disdainfully as he glanced at Yue Chao Qun. “Are you worthy?”
“You’re seeking death!” Despite his age and experience, Yue Chao Qun lost his temper when he heard the contempt in Duan Ling Tian’s words. Then, he said to Ji Ying, “Leader Ji Ying, let’s strike together.”
Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+ Swoos.h.!.+
As soon as Yue Chao Qun’s voice fell, a green energy burst forth from Ji Ying’s body. The energy surged and churned around him at lightning speed. Based on this, everyone could tell that he comprehended the law of wind.
Splas.h.!.+ Splas.h.!.+ Splas.h.!.+
At the same time, a blue energy surged out from Yue Chao Qun’s body like a tsunami. Clearly, he comprehended the law of water.
“Attack!”
The duo struck in unison.
With the help from the law of wind, the speed of Yao Chao Qun’s attack increased tremendously.
At this time, the Guardians of the Given Alliance hurriedly said to the other members, “Retreat!”
Boom!
The shockwave from the two attacks damaged the entrance of the Given Alliance base immediately.
The crowd watched the raging energies swept out toward the purple-clad figure in the distance with fear s.h.i.+ning in their eyes.
“Just the shockwave from their attacks is so powerful. I can only imagine how powerful the attacks are!”
At this moment…
Clank!
Another figure joined the battle at this moment.
Everyone watched in shock as Swordsman Chu landed next to Ji Ying and Yue Chao Qun.. As soon as he unsheathed his narrow sword, golden sword rays shot out immediately and chased after the blue and green energies.
