Chapter 2207: A Bunch of Talented Performers

Battle Emperor Xuexing’s speech caused the faces of those who wanted to pull away to change color.

They were only here for the festival!

They might have a close relationship with the Imperial Kong Clan, but the enemy this time…was a notoriously powerful Great Emperor.

He was a ruthless menace who had slaughtered numerous Emperor experts in the Nirvana of Transcendence!

He had walked out of that place alive despite having faced a siege from a bunch of fifth and sixth realm Emperors! Who would dare to offend such an existence so easily?

Moreover, he wasn't alone!

Both the black-robed woman and the ferocious-looking big yellow dog were not simple characters either!

However, Battle Emperor Xuexing had used Heavenly Emperor Shi to pressure them, and in front of many people at that. Also, if they just withdrew like this, they would certainly offend the Imperial Kong Clan as well. Therefore, none of them had the courage to lead the retreat despite the bursting resentment in their hearts.

Someone suddenly came up with a great idea and quickly transmitted, “Fellow Daoist Lin, I don’t want to be your enemy, so if we really have to fight later, please be merciful. I promise I won't use my real strength.”

There was a strange flash in Lin Xun's eyes, but he still nodded imperceptibly.

The proposer was ecstatic with relief, but they maintained a murderous attitude. Of course, it was only for show.

Little did this person know that in the same instant, over a dozen experts from different major powers had also transmitted similar messages to Lin Xun in a humble, helpless tone…

It could be reckoned that these so-called friends of the Imperial Kong Clan were destined to be unreliable in a real fight.

“Kill!”

Everything took long to describe but had happened in only seconds. The battle had long since erupted. The experts from the Imperial Kong Clan were working the hardest, attacking furiously. Their Emperor auras burst out like volcanos and threw this side of heaven and earth into turmoil.

Battle Emperor Xuexing of Primordial Dao Court had also jumped into action. He wielded a spear as shiny as silver, pointing at the sky and striking the ground with a swift and overbearing momentum.

Being at the fourth realm of the Emperor Stage, he was quite self-aware, which could be seen from the fact that he was charging straight at Xia Zhi.

Lin Xun was a supreme Great Emperor who had killed many fourth realm Emperors, so he was too dangerous as a target.

Although Big Yellow was a dog, its wild arrogance and the fact that Lin Xun thought it was capable of fighting sixth realm Emperors and above made it even worse of a tough nut.

Therefore, Battle Emperor Xuexing had gone for Xia Zhi.

In short, he had no intention to risk his life for the Kong Clan. The only reason why he had commanded the crowd to join him was because this was the territory of the Kong Clan. Although Lin Xun’s group was strong, he didn’t think they were capable of shaking a Primeval Imperial Clan!

Big Yellow watched with shifty eyes as it crouched in the void, not moving a muscle. It deemed getting involved in this kind of trivial fight too humiliating for a great existence like itself.

“Die!” Someone rushed toward Lin Xun. This was a big shot from another power, looking imposing and fierce with lightning bolts shrouding him.

“It's Sword Emperor Qilong of Purple Cloud Mountain! I didn't think he’d be so fierce to make a direct move against Emperor Daoyuan!” exclaimed an onlooker.

Hearing that, many people looked over and were similarly shaken by Sword Emperor Qilong's bravado.

However, to their shock, Lin Xun only waved his hand. Before the crowd could even get a good look, the mighty and unrivaled Sword Emperor Qilong stumbled back a hundred thousand feet, his face as white as a sheet as he coughed up blood.

From his mouth, a reluctant and bitter voice came out, “As expected of Emperor Daoyuan, the first supreme Great Emperor in the last one hundred thousand years. I am no match for him! Fellow Daoists of the Imperial Kong Clan, it's not that I don’t want to fight alongside you, but now that I've suffered serious injuries, I'll have to stop here!”

His voice was still echoing loudly when the person had already teleported away, escaping the scene faster than anyone else. He didn’t act like someone who was seriously injured at all.

The crowd was flabbergasted, their eyes and mouths agape and their hearts trembling.

Is Emperor Daoyuan really that strong?

Lin Xun's cheeks twitched a little.

Definitely a drama king. My strike just now hadn’t even been unleashed, let alone injure him!

Meanwhile, those who were of the same mind as Sword Emperor Qilong all enviously glanced at the spot where he had vanished from. Then, they looked fervently at Lin Xun with these words written in their eyes: My friend, cooperate with us as well and help us out of this misery, please…?

Lin Xun was inwardly amused, and he didn't refuse.

So in the following time, under the horrified gazes of the crowd, the powerful Emperor experts who marched up to deal with Lin Xun either sprayed blood from their mouths and noses and flew backward, or let out screams of excruciating pain and staggered backward, or got sent backward in a variety of manners…

It all looked so real. In fact, how would a normal person dare to believe that these hallowed Emperor figures would be so shameless as to fake their defeat to avoid getting involved?

What a bunch of talented performers!

That was Big Yellow's evaluation. With its cultivation, it only needed a glance to see through those little tricks. Contempt was plastered all over the dog's face while it lamented inside.

Emperors nowadays just keep getting more and more unbearable…

Rumble!

At the same time, Xia Zhi was conquering left and right, killing the Kong Clan experts who were besieging her in a clean and efficient manner.

As if she had been mindful of Big Yellow's request, she had almost always left the corpses intact, and for every one she killed, she casually bagged them up like one would do while harvesting crops…

Bang

!

As the spear swung, Battle Emperor Xuexing, who was her only remaining opponent, was shaken to the point that he repeatedly staggered back. His arm nearly exploded and was in severe pain.

He couldn't help but be horrified. He had thought that he was wise for choosing an opponent that he could handle, but who would have thought that the black-robed woman's battle prowess would be so incredibly strong?!

“Damn the Kong Clan! Why aren't those old timers here yet? Are they really going to watch me get killed before they finally show up?” Battle Emperor Xuexing also somewhat regretted his impulsiveness at this moment. He really shouldn’t have come forward so early…

Bang!

Soon, another spear strike landed on his chest, causing it to sink. His vision went black, and he almost fell from the air.

Just as Xia Zhi was about to kill him, a bellow reverberated from the distant Tianhui Mountain.

“Tiny remnant of Fangchun Mountain, how dare you come to my clan and make a scene?! You are begging for death!”

It shook the nine heavens and ten earths, transmitting out endless majesty.

Traveling faster than the voice was a purple flying dagger that was boundlessly eye-piercing. It cut through the void like a shooting star from the universe and headed toward Xia Zhi at an astonishing speed.

Lin Xun narrowed his eyes as the power coming from the dagger gave him a sense of danger!

Without a doubt, the old monster who had dealt this strike was a terrifying existence above the sixth realm.

Just at the same time, Big Yellow, who had been crouching there, finally moved. It vanished from the spot before appearing in front of Xia Zhi the next second, and slapped out its paw.

BANG!

The splendid purple flying dagger was swatted away like a fly, buzzing nonstop as it flew backward.

The crowd froze.

This big yellow dog…is so fierce!

It was also at this moment that astoundingly powerful figures enveloped in Emperor auras swept out from Tianhui Mountain one after another.

Upon their appearance, the region trembled violently, everything rustled, and the sun and moon became lightless. It felt like a group of gods were stepping out of the legends into the mortal world!

At this point, there was no one left in the area around Tianhui Mountain apart from Lin Xun, Xia Zhi, and Big Yellow. All the cultivators who had come to watch the festival had run and hidden themselves somewhere far, far away!

Heaven and the earth were utterly quiet. All eyes were directed toward the sky above Tianhui Mountain.

There were over a dozen old relics who had come out from the Imperial Kong Clan!

Battle Emperor Xuexing looked like a weight had been lifted off of his shoulders, feeling lucky like he had just narrowly escaped death.

However, right at this moment, a brilliant spear suddenly emerged, illusory and mesmerizing.

Poof!

In front of the crowd, Battle Emperor Xuexing, a fourth realm Emperor and an elder of Primordial Dao Court, got his throat skewered with a single strike.

The next second, he exploded into pieces!

This gory scene was like the most direct and crude provocation. It caused the newly arrived group of Kong Clan's old monsters to tremble with rage.

RUMBLE!

Their spirit senses spread out like a tsunami, covering and permeating the whole region with infinite killing intent. All the terrains in every direction quaked in chaos.

“Shut up!” shouted one of them, an elegant old man with white hair and beard, all of a sudden, his voice full of exasperation.

Crack!

However, Big Yellow had already caught the purple flying dagger with its mouth at some point. With a fierce bite of its snow-white teeth, the dagger was reduced to several sections.

“Puh!” The white-haired expert spurted out blood. The purple flying dagger was his life-bound Emperor weapon, so he also had to suffer along with its destruction.

The crowd’s hearts jumped in trepidation.

This big dog is too ferocious, its teeth are so sharp that they can easily bite into an Emperor-grade treasure!

Even Lin Xun gasped. He didn’t dare to imagine how miserable it would feel to be bitten by Big Yellow…

Crack, crack~

Chewing on the dagger fragments, Big Yellow commented with a disdainful expression, “Two seventh realms, one eighth realm, five sixth realms, and the rest are below the sixth realm. Aren’t you embarrassed, coming out here with this kind of puny force?”

The dog’s voice was filled with contempt as it resounded through the skies. The distant audience almost went crazy hearing this. Who could even dream that there was such a dog who dared to look down on the ancestors of the Imperial Kong Clan?!

“You have a death wish!”

“Quick, slay this sinful beast!”

“Not one of them is allowed to escape!”

The Kong Clan Emperor experts were so angry that their old faces turned livid and their killing intent surged. They all went straight to summoning their Emperor-grade treasures and charged at Lin Xun’s group.

“I'll take care of those old bastards, you two deal with the others,” Big Yellow dropped these words before shooting out. Its figure abruptly released a monstrous aura belonging to the Emperor Stage.

It was clearly a dog, but it gave off the immeasurable might of a supreme Emperor who was patrolling the world!

Boom!

When it claw waved, great dao law power wove into endless lightning. Like a divine chain of order, they thunderously spread out and quickly blocked the eighth realm and two seventh realm old monsters, then started to suppress them.

“Xia Zhi, let’s make this a quick one,” said Lin Xun.

At this moment, his eyes were unfathomable as they blazed with a fighting spirit. His aura suddenly changed, connecting with the sky above and the earth below. His entirety was glowing brightly while also being shrouded in a boundless drizzle of light, causing the region to dim.

All the cultivators watching this felt their hearts pounding and their scalps numb. Their expressions completely changed as well.

Is this the dashing might a supreme Great Emperor?
