Chapter 194: Greetings, Young Master!
Ye Guan stood still as if he were struck by lightning, and his mind went blank as he stared at the severely injured Ao Qianqian.
He was greatly remorseful. He had his doubts, as Lu Tian’s powerful attacks earlier hadn’t been able to injure him greatly. However, Ao Qianqian had been insisting that she was fine.
However, she wasn’t fine at all. She had been quietly taking the brunt of Lu Tian’s attacks and enduring the pain by herself.
Ye Guan wiped away the blood on Ao Qianqian’s lips, but more blood poured out of her mouth.
Riddled with guilt, Ye Guan said, “I’m sorry…”
Ao Qianqian smiled wryly and said, “It’s fine. I chose you, and I’ve long resolved myself to die with you.”
“Okay…” Ye Guan nodded slightly.
Chen Guanzi suddenly appeared in front of Ye Guan. He stared deeply at Lu Tian in the distance.
Lu Tian was exuding a powerful aura, but the aura didn’t belong to him.
Chen Guanzi’s expression turned heavy. The aura was so powerful that it made even him feel unsettled. Just how powerful is the owner of that aura?
Ye Guan’s supporters were furious. It wouldn’t take a genius to deduce that the aura Lu Tian was giving off didn’t belong to him. In other words, Lu Tian was violating the rules of the battle.
He’s openly breaking the rules! How shameless!
Rumble!
A rumbling noise echoed as the space above Trial Peak was torn open.
“Who dares to harm the Young Master?!” a furious roar echoed as a hundred thousand powerhouses emerged from the rift in space. The old man standing at the helm was none other than Grand Elder Ge of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion.
A hundred thousand Dao Soldiers! The onlookers were taken aback upon recognizing the powerhouses behind Grand Elder Ge. What is the Immortal Treasures Pavilion trying to do here? Why did they bring a hundred thousand Dao Soldiers here?!
However, it seemed that the Immortal Treasures Pavilion wasn’t done just yet as another group of powerhouses clad in golden armor walked out from behind them.
They were the Immortal Soldiers of the Immortal Treasures Pavilion, and there were three hundred thousand of them. The Immortal Treasures Pavilion had mobilized a total of four hundred thousand troops.
The combined auras of so many troops made both heaven and earth quiver slightly just from their presence alone.
A group of people on the Guanxuan Academy’s side stared in bewilderment at the scene.
What is the Immortal Treasures Pavilion trying to do here?
With a cold and sinister expression, Grand Elder Ge declared, “Our Immortal Treasures Pavilion will be the first to step in if anyone dares to harm our Young Master Lu Tian!”
His voice echoed like thunder, and it shook the whole world.
Young Master Lu Tian!
Everyone stared at Lu Tian on the Life or Death Stage. It turned out that the Immortal Treasures Pavilion had brought so many troops here for the sake of protecting Lu Tian.
Rumble!
A rumbling noise echoed on the right side of the horizon, and the space there was abruptly torn open. Moments later, powerful figures with terrifying auras walked out of the rift in space, astonishing the onlookers.
The Sky-Splitting Tiger Clan was here. The figure at the helm was the Clan Leader of the Sky-Splitting Tiger Clan, Hu Xiao.
Hu Xiao walked out and swept his gaze coldly at the onlookers before declaring, “My Sky-Splitting Tiger Clan will be the first to step in if anyone dares to harm our Young Master Lu Tian!
Hu Xiao’s voice was like bells over roofs at dawn, echoing throughout the Guanxuan Academy.
Rumble!
A rumbling noise echoed once more; this time, the space on the left side of the horizon was torn open. Moments later, thousands of demonic beasts emerged from the rift in space.
The demonic beasts looked unique and distinct; each of them was as huge as a hill, and they gave off a powerful aura that made the space around them quiver violently under their presence alone.
The demonic beasts were from none other than the terrifying Divine Xuanwu Clan!
Of course, the Divine Xuanwu at the helm was the Clan Leader of the Divine Xuanwu Clan, Xuan Ming. He looked around coldly before shouting, “Who dares to harm Young Master Lu Tian? Who?!”
Rumble!
Unfortunately, it seemed that the spectacle wasn’t over yet, as the space on the left of the Divine Xuanwu Clan was torn open.
The space there was abruptly engulfed in flames as a huge flock of Vermillion Birds walked out of the rift. The onlookers observed them with narrowed eyes and found that there were at least a thousand Vermillion Birds!
The temperature of Trial Peak rose violently, and even space itself started melting beneath the combined heat of so many Vermillion Birds in one place.
The Vermilion Bird Clan was here!
The Clan Leader of the Vermilion Bird stood at the helm. He glared coldly at Ye Guan and declared, “My Vermillion Bird Clan will annihilate those daring enough to harm Lu Tian!”
“Hahahaha!” A boisterous laugh echoed on the left of the Vermilion Bird Clan.
Swoosh!
A ferocious wave of energy swept past everyone as a pride of Vicious Lions pounced out of the rift in space. The moment they emerged, the entire Trial Peak quivered violently.
The Clan Leader of the Vicious Lion Clan glared coldly at Ye Guan and roared, “Who the fuck dares to harm Young Master Lu Tian? Who?!”
The Divine Xuanwu Clan, the Vermillion Bird Clan, the Vicious Lion Clan, and the Sky-Splitting Tiger Clan had appeared, but it seemed that the spectacle wasn’t over just yet as countless array lights abruptly pervaded Trial Peak.
Powerful cultivators emerged from the array lights, and a million powerhouses soon covered Trial Peak. These powerhouses were all from the clans and aristocratic families who had decided to support Lu Tian.
“Who dares to harm Young Master Lu Tian?!”
They roared at once, making the entire Trial Peak tremble.
The onlookers looked up and found many beams of light making a beeline for Trial Peak.
Those who had taken a neutral stance frowned at the sight.
Are they staging a rebellion? No. If Lu Tian is the Young Master, it’s not a rebellion. He’s just ascending the throne. He’s just proclaiming himself as the new king!
The expressions of those who had taken a neutral stance turned heavy.
Meanwhile, Lu Tian’s supporters in the crowd rejoiced at once. Roughly two million cultivators had gathered in the blink of an eye, vastly outnumbering the number of powerhouses in the Guanxuan Academy at the moment.
In other words, there was no way the Guanxuan Academy could do anything against so many powerhouses unless the Guanxuan Academy recalled their troops from the Xuzhen World. Right now, they didn’t even have to be afraid of the Committee.
Lu Tian was here as well. What could the Committee do to him? Those unwilling to surrender would perish!
“Impudent!” Cao Bai yelled as he stood on the pillar behind Ye Guan. He brought with him hundreds of disciples from the Sword Sect, and they all stood in front of Ye Guan.
They took a stance with their swords and glared coldly at the surrounding powerhouses.
There was no fear at all in their eyes—only murderous intent.
So what if there are millions of enemies? The Sword Sect has never been afraid of its enemies!
Meanwhile, the powerhouses of Time Paradise and the Lingxu Blessed Land rushed toward Ye Guan to protect him.
Zhang Yuntian looked around with furious eyes before declaring, “Today, my Lingxu Blessed Land will fight together with Young Lord Ye!”
“Fight together!” roared the powerhouses of the Lingxu Blessed Land.
They were at a critical juncture, and it was necessary for them to unite against a common enemy.
Meanwhile, the Grand Elder of Time Paradise chuckled sarcastically and said, “How shameless! The Chosen One actually had to resort to ganging up on his opponent after losing the one-on-one battle. How can someone like that be the Chosen One? Fuck you!”
He raised his middle finger toward Lu Tian. A look of incomparable disdain was across his face as he roared, “Look here, you weak piece of shit!”
Lu Tian’s face immediately turned dark. He glared at the Grand Elder and said, “I’ll definitely annihilate the Time Paradise.”
The Grand Elder boisterously laughed and taunted, “Come on then, I dare you!”
Lu Tian glared hatefully at Time Paradise’s Grand Elder.
He was about to speak, but Ao Sheng laughed and said, “I totally agree with what you just said! It was originally a one-on-one battle, but the Chosen One has ignored all martial ethics and is trying to besiege Ye Guan like a hooligan. How embarrassing!”
He turned to look at the cultivators on the horizon. He sneered at them and said, “Today, my Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan will fight and die alongside Young Lord Ye!”
Boom!
A powerful explosion echoed as the members of the Ancient Heavenly Dragon Clan transformed into their true bodies and hovered above Ye Guan.
Lu Tian stared calmly at Ao Sheng and said, “So you want to die together with him? I will grant your wish, then!”
“So this generation’s Chosen One is this kind of person?” A deriding laughter echoed from the distant horizon.
Crackle!
A lightning bolt streaked across the skies and appeared above Trial Peak. The lightning bolt soon dissipated, revealing a black-robed man. He was none other than Ye Qing.
Ye Qing glared at Lu Tian with disgust and remarked, “Ganging up on your opponent just because you can’t defeat him? What a shameless piece of shit. You’re an absolute garbage of a Chosen One! Ptoeeey!”
The students of the Martial Department turned ugly. Indeed, Lu Tian was supposed to fight Ye Guan one-on-one, but in addition to asking a mysterious elite cultivator for help, he also summoned many powerhouses to gang up on Ye Guan.
His actions were beyond distasteful.
Lu Tian stared at Ye Qing and asked, “Is garbage like you even worthy of speaking to me?”
Ye Qing chuckled and taunted, “What? You dared to openly do something as disgusting as this, but you don’t want people to talk about it? Your fight with Ye Guan just now was fair, right? Why did you allow that mysterious being with you to interfere? Is it because you’re afraid of losing, you piece of shit!”
“You impudent prick!” Lu Tian roared. He took a step forward and punched out.
Crackle!
A powerful lightning bolt emerged from his fist and made a beeline for Ye Qing.
However, Ye Qing remained calm and composed.
He allowed the lightning bolt to hit him.
Boom!
Ye Qing shook slightly as the lightning bolt sunk into his body as if it were a stone sinking into the boundless ocean.
The onlookers were stupefied.
Lu Tian glared hatefully at Ye Qing and exclaimed, “The Thunder Law!”
Law?
Everyone cast astonished gazes on Ye Qing.
Ye Qing scowled at Lu Tian and said, “Shut up, you piece of shit!”
“How preposterous!” roared Grand Elder Ge. He glared at Ye Qing and shouted, “How dare you speak with such disrespect toward the Young Master?! You deserve to die! Kill him!”
A Dao Soldier standing next to Grand Elder Ge rushed toward Ye Qing.
Ye Qing was about to make a move. However, Chen Guanzi slashed out with his sword.
Schwing!
The Dao Soldier was decapitated in mid-air!
Rumble!
Chen Guanzi’s sword move was so powerful that his sword light left a thousand-meter-long scar in the space itself.
Chen Guanzi turned to look at Ye Qing and said, “Little brother, the waters here are muddy and complicated. You should step aside for now and let my Sword Sect handle this!”
Ye Qing looked around and said, “I’m going to stay here. Please don’t worry. I’m not as strong as Brother Ye Guan, but I’m not that weak either. I can definitely kill at least a few of them myself.”
Chen Guanzi nodded slightly. “All right!”
Meanwhile, the Head Military Official frowned. Where are the representatives of the four great clans? They’re supposed to be the core players here, so where are they?
If the four great clans appeared and declared their intention to stand next to Lu Tian—no, even if only two out of the four great clans stepped out to support Lu Tian, things would be over by then.
Even the Guanxuan Committee would have no choice but to surrender…
Meanwhile, Ye Guan made Ao Qianqian ingest a pill. He carried and placed her in front of Ao Sheng. A beautiful lady took Ao Qianqian into her arms and embraced her. A tear rolled down her cheek as she stared at the severely injured Ao Qianqian.
Lass, why did you go this far? the beautiful lady lamented.
Ye Guan bowed respectfully to Ao Sheng and the beautiful lady before turning to look at Lu Tian.
Lu Tian met Ye Guan’s gaze. His expression was indifferent as he yelled, “Kill him!”
Lu Tian had decided to abandon the one-on-one battle, as Ye Guan’s sword was capable of destroying the defenses of a Guanxuan Divine Armor. In other words, it was impossible for him to defeat Ye Guan while the latter was wielding that sword.
In other words, he had no other choice but to gang up on Ye Guan.
Lu Tian’s supporters roared as they charged toward Ye Guan and the latter’s supporters.
Lu Tian glared at Ye Guan and chuckled mockingly before saying, “So what if you’re good at fighting? The most important thing in this world is your number of supporters. I have more supporters than you, so it’s only natural that you’ll lose, do you get it?”
Rip!
A loud ripping noise echoed between heaven and earth.
Everyone came to a halt, and they all looked up to find a young woman walking slowly toward them in mid-air. The young woman was wearing a dragon robe, and her long hair draped over her shoulders.
Her cold gaze seemed as cold as a million-year-old icy cavern, making her look extremely intimidating despite her young appearance.
Everyone felt a shiver down their spine upon seeing the young woman.
“Princess Xin!” someone exclaimed in shock.
Princess Xin?
Princess Xin was one of two people with the highest authority in the Guanxuan Academy, and she also had a million elite cultivators beneath her banner. She just had to stomp once, and the entire Guanxuan Universe would tremble.
The Gu Clan members stood behind her, and there were thousands of them. To make matters worse, there were two million cultivators behind the Gu Clan members.
There were so many cultivators that the horizon could barely be seen.
Rip!
Space was abruptly torn open next to Princess Xin. A woman clad in a blue robe slowly walked out of the rift in space. She was as beautiful as a painting, but her demeanor was indifferent and stoic as she approached Trial Peak with her right arm behind her.
The scorching sun overhead seemed to have dimmed the moment she appeared.
She was none other than Empress Yue, and she also held the highest authority in the Guanxuan Academy alongside Princess Xin. A million Yue Clan troops wearing blue armor, and thousands of Yue Clan members stood behind her.
Lu Tian couldn’t help but cackle maniacally upon seeing Empress Yue and Princess Xin. The Yue Clan and the Gu Clan have arrived to fulfill their promise! They’re here to support me!
He placed both of his hands behind him and raised his chin. His posture got straighter as he basked in the reality that was about to unfold. Today, he would become the next King of the Guanxuan Universe!
Lu Tian’s supporters were thrilled upon seeing Lu Tian laughing maniacally.
It seemed that the Yue Clan and Gu Clan had come here to support Lu Tian!
The members of Time Paradise and the members of the Lingxu Blessed Land turned pale. If the Yue Clan and Gu Clan had come here to support Lu Tian, then resistance would be futile.
Even the Guanxuan Committee would have to bow down to Lu Tian…
Empress Yue and Princess Xin were simply too powerful for them to resist. In addition, the two became the highest authority in the Guanxuan Universe after the Sword Master’s departure.
Everyone’s eyes were focused on Empress Yue and Princess Xin as the two of them walked over to Ye Guan.
The faces of Ye Guan’s supporters, including Chen Guanzi, abruptly changed.
They wanted to do something, but a mysterious force enveloped them. However, the mysterious force carried not even a hint of malicious intent; it simply immobilized them.
Princess Xin and Empress Yue stared deeply at Ye Guan. A complicated light flitted across their eyes, but they soon fell to their knees and said, “Greetings, Young Master!”
The troops that they had brought over from their clans also knelt and roared at the same time, “Greetings, Young Master!”
A deafening silence immediately blanketed Trial Peak.
It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
…
Coca and Corlumbus's Thoughts
T/N: Everyone rejoice! I had been waiting for this moment for so long. Enough with Lu Tian’s nonsense; let me slap him myself. Smack
