Chapter 505: Chapter 504: Dragon Gate Flying Armor: Yiu Huatian
"Why are you here?"
Zhong Ling clearly recognized the newcomer, smiling brightly with her dimples showing. Seeing Sister Mu with a horse that she hadn’t ridden, accompanied by a strange man, she was puzzled and was going to ask a few more questions.
But the veiled woman suddenly shouted:
"I don’t know you!"
"Sister Mu!"
Zhong Ling was stunned, barely able to believe that the veiled woman would say such a thing.
"Hmph!"
The man behind the veiled woman had a handsome face and was dressed in resplendent clothing, exuding regal elegance, akin to a sovereign looking disdainfully at defeated remnants:
"So, all acquainted. That makes things easier."
His gaze passed through Ding Ling and Zhong Ling, landing on Ling Yanqiu:
"Unexpected, to meet you here."
"Yiu Huatian. I didn’t expect to encounter you here either. Where is Zhao Huai’an?"
Ling Yanqiu’s face tightened, gripping her sword firmly as she said:
"I chased you up the Celestial Ladder. Now you’re here, where is Zhao Huai’an?!"
"I would also like to know where he is."
Yiu Huatian leisurely drew the long sword from his waist, as gracefully and methodically as a refined diner, noble, elegant, scholarly, yet gentle:
"But it doesn’t matter. Today, I’ll kill you first. When I meet him, I’ll kill him too!"
"With just you, you think you can kill him?"
Ling Yanqiu sneered.
The veiled woman couldn’t hold back any longer, stepping forward, she said:
"Yiu Huatian, you have a grudge against this lady, fine, but can you let my little sister leave first."
"Sister Mu."
Zhong Ling, so perceptive, understood immediately that the scolding from Sister Mu earlier was to protect her, there was no need to say more; Sister Mu must have deep-seated disagreements with Yiu Huatian, otherwise, she wouldn’t be so tense around him.
"That’s not possible."
A frost seemed to settle on Yiu Huatian’s face, and with just a gentle step forward, a chill swept out indiscriminately:
"Anyone mixed up with Ling Yanqiu surely is with the traitors. As the Great Governor, how can I let traitors go? Everyone, stay here!"
Boom!
He suddenly stomped the ground, like a sword breaking through the air, and in a blink, he was before Ding Ling. A flick of his treasure sword sent gleaming stars like lightning towards Ding Ling’s face.
This thrust aimed directly at Ding Ling’s vitals, clearly intending to take Ding Ling’s life.
Ding Ling frowned, casually unleashing an Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms!
Roar!
Dragon Battle in the Wilderness!
Amidst the dragon’s roar, a dragon-shaped phantom, driven by Fusion Qi, burst from Ding Ling’s palm, a Divine Dragon’s Tail Swing swept away the starlight, striking Yiu Huatian’s treasure sword, causing his hand to tremble violently, and his tiger’s mouth to split open. Unable to hold the sword, it flew several meters away with a clanging sound.
Yiu Huatian, airborne, couldn’t dodge, and was struck in the chest by the strong and unparalleled palm force, immediately spewing a jet of blood, flying diagonally several meters away, landing with a heavy thud beside the sword stuck in the ground.
Just like that.
In an instant.
No one else could react before the battle was over.
The veiled woman’s eyes were filled with fear, unable to believe Ding Ling was so brave and formidable!
Zhong Ling was overjoyed, clapping and cheering ’Brother Ding is amazing!’
Ling Yanqiu secretly took a breath. Yiu Huatian was the Great Governor of the Western Bureau in her world, and with the frenzy of otherworld ascenders and aliens pouring in, Yiu Huatian, leveraging immense power in hand, gained numerous fortunes and opportunities.
His strength was unfathomable.
Zhao Huai’an was forced to retreat to the Celestial Ladder, fleeing in disgrace.
Confronted with this, Ling Yanqiu had no hesitation pursuing.
This led to their meeting in this world.
And yet such a strong person was nearly killed by Ding Ling with a single strike!
Previously, when Ding Ling defeated Cloud Crane, it didn’t feel too significant, but now defeating Yiu Huatian in one move brought immense shock, as if a cyclone swept through her heart, a chaotic mess!
Yiu Huatian himself was equally shocked but being astute, he endured the excruciating chest pain from a broken rib, flipped and leaped up, swiftly drawing the sword beside him, and dashed toward the veiled woman, placing the sword rapidly at her neck:
"If you don’t want her dead. Get lost!"
His voice was incredibly cold, as if it carried autumn frost.
The veiled woman trembled, instinctively glancing towards Zhong Ling and the others.
Zhong Ling was a little scared, gently pulling Ding Ling’s sleeve, whispering:
"Brother Ding, can you save Sister Mu? Please."
Ding Ling sighed.
Running into Yiu Huatian here was unforeseen.
Yiu Huatian? He’s a boss-level character from the Dragon Gate Flying Armor world, and now he’s here.
It seems the Celestial Ladder likely descended to the site of his duel with Zhao Huai’an, otherwise, such coincidence wouldn’t occur.
But what Yiu Huatian shouldn’t ever do is, try to kill him?
Ding Ling coldly glanced at Yiu Huatian and said:
"Let Miss Mu go, you can leave."
Yiu Huatian’s powers are indeed high, quite remarkable.
But only at the Initial Tier Innate level.
With such power, Ding Ling’s Defensive Gang Qi Shield, Yiu Huatian couldn’t even break Ding Ling’s defense!
How could he withstand a strike from Ding Ling’s Fusion Qi without being killed on the spot? Perhaps he had some fortune, or armor protection.
"Hehe."
Yiu Huatian did not believe Ding Ling’s words at all, sneering coldly:
"Don’t leave? Then I’ll kill her!"
He exerted force with his hand, and the masked woman’s neck immediately oozed a trace of crimson blood, leaving Zhong Ling looking pale.
That masked woman merely groaned, yet throughout she hadn’t uttered a word of plea, evidently a tough character.
"Let her go."
Ling Yanqiu leaped off the horse’s back:
"I’ll take her place."
"Are you worthy?"
Yiu Huatian retorted sarcastically:
"Obviously, Miss Mu Wanqing shares a deep relationship with the girl opposite. And that girl is seated behind that expert, embracing him. The closeness between the two is apparent.
And you?
How long have you been in this world?
What makes you think you can replace Mu Wanqing?"
So it’s Mu Wanqing.
Ding Ling also secretly marveled. By rights, Mu Wanqing should either be with Yue the Third or Duan Yu at this moment, unexpectedly held hostage by Yiu Huatian.
It seems there must be some conflict between Duan Yu and Mu Wanqing with Yiu Huatian, otherwise, it wouldn’t have come to this.
"..."
Ling Yanqiu was at a loss for words.
Yiu Huatian once again looked at Ding Ling:
"Your palm power is so strong, your palm techniques so high, I have never heard nor seen anything like it. I admit defeat. But I absolutely will not surrender! If you want me dead, I’ll make sure to kill Mu Wanqing first! You don’t believe me, but feel free to try."
"No!"
Zhong Ling couldn’t help but cried out softly.
Yet Yiu Huatian heard it clearly, becoming even more certain of his previous suspicions. He was about to say a few more words, but suddenly felt intense pain in his chest, forcing him to cough painfully, blood oozing from the corners of his mouth.
It was this very moment of cough-induced distraction.
Ding Ling seized the opportunity, pointing a finger towards Yiu Huatian’s Treasure Sword.
One Yang Finger!
A streak of Finger Force pierced through, extremely fast like a flash of lightning, hitting Yiu Huatian’s Treasure Sword with a bang, tilting it aside, Mu Wanqing, being quick-witted, swiftly ran to the side.
"Where are you running!"
Yiu Huatian, both angry and fearful, Ding Ling could actually shoot such Finger Force from afar.
Immediately disregarding his dignity, in order to evade Ding Ling’s oncoming Finger Force, he crouched down and rolled on the ground, simultaneously activating Fusion Qi, bursting forth at ten times speed, bang! Like Xun Wind rolling across the ground, rapidly flipping to Mu Wanqing’s side, then reaching out like lightning to grab Mu Wanqing’s arm.
Mu Wanqing was brave as well.
Realizing she couldn’t outrun Yiu Huatian, she unleashed her palm towards Yiu Huatian, but didn’t expect to be counter-grabbed, looking helplessly as she was about to fall back into his grip.
Ding Ling’s torrent of Finger Force already descended like raindrops upon Yiu Huatian.
Ding Ling initially didn’t want to kill Yiu Huatian, after all, his ability to withstand a single palm suggested his Cultivation Technique must be extraordinary, so Ding Ling thought of heavily injuring him to extract some techniques.
But Yiu Huatian, whenever he grabbed an opportunity, would act ruthlessly.
To avoid being coerced, Ding Ling figured such a ruthless person would hardly be easy to subdue, his extraction plans likely failing, opting instead for the One Yang Finger to end him.
Whish whish whish!
The torrential flood of Finger Force from the One Yang Finger easily pierced through Yiu Huatian’s body.
He was already gravely injured.
This compounded injury left him unable to endure, only able to use his remaining strength to viciously reach for Mu Wanqing’s neck, intending to kill her even in death.
But Mu Wanqing tilted her neck back slightly, and with a smack, he only managed to grab her face veil.
Rip!
The veil was torn off by him.
Revealing her stunningly beautiful face.
"My veil."
Mu Wanqing appeared dazed, lost in spirit.
And Ding Ling’s One Yang Finger’s Finger Force descended again, poof! Hitting Yiu Huatian’s head, and his final struggles dissipated with the blood gushing out.
Bang!
Yiu Huatian kneeled on the ground, body wobbling, before falling sharply, dead on the spot, beyond dead.
He died unwillingly.
His eyes wide open!
His life had just begun. How did it end so soon?!
