Chapter 1371: Chapter 198: Whoever Insults Her, Dies
After fifteen minutes, several clan leaders and the High Priest discussed and then came out.
"As the High Priest said, the core match of this Eight Desolate Clan Competition will be conducted in the form of the Bahuang Tower," Hei Yao announced the result of the discussion among the clan leaders.
Yun Sheng and the others didn’t know what exactly the clan leaders discussed, but it was rare that this time, all the clan leaders had reached an agreement.
The High Priest seemed to have anticipated that the result would be like this.
"Since the clan leaders have decided, that’s for the best. In three days, I will bring the Bahuang Tower to the square, at that time I will announce the specific challenge mode," the High Priest said and put away the Bahuang Tower in his hand.
The various Beast Clans also dispersed one by one, the promoted contestants were all ecstatic, while the eliminated ones looked desolate. Everyone was eagerly awaiting the unique core match three days later.
Returning to the Dugu Mansion, Hu Qianqiu put away his smile and gathered Yun Sheng, Lu Yunshuang, and Yu Shang together.
"Listen, all three of you. I know there have been long-standing rifts among you, especially Yun Sheng and Yu Shang. Remember this: the interests of the Sky Fox Tribe are paramount. If anyone dares to cause trouble, this Clan Leader will not forgive easily." Hu Qianqiu placed great importance on this Bahuang Tower challenge mission.
He was truly a petty person, appearing subservient in front of Hei Yao, while showing a different arrogant clan leader attitude in front of Yun Sheng and the others, which made people want to spit.
Fortunately, the three women were used to it and didn’t bother to argue with him.
"Clan Leader, what exactly is that Dark Eight Desolate Divine Artifact? Are they very powerful?" Lu Yunshuang asked.
"In short, they are extremely powerful. Once you enter the Bahuang Tower, you must look out for each other," Hu Qianqiu coughed awkwardly.
Yun Sheng found it amusing; Hu Qianqiu had never seen the Eight Desolate Divine Artifact, let alone the Dark Eight Desolate Divine Artifact. In fact, among everyone, only Yun Sheng, Ye Beiming, Dugu Xiu, and Bo Bo had seen the real Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts.
The warriors on the Bahuang Continent had only heard of the Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, but never really confronted them.
Yun Sheng possessed several Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, and Ye Beiming and Dugu Xiu each owned parts of the War God Spear.
But even so, Yun Sheng was not overly confident about this Bahuang Tower journey.
Although she held the Summoning Demon Hand, Immortal Holy Grail, Netherworld Ghost Key, Magic God Bracelet, Heart Difficulty Lamp, Heavenly Destiny Mirror, and other six Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, their power did not fully manifest compared to the warriors’ time.
Especially the Heavenly Destiny Mirror, which was already damaged.
The Dark Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts inside the Bahuang Tower were crafted by the ancestors of the Eight Desolate Beast Clan as imitations of the original Eight Desolate Divine Artifacts, and they possessed equivalent power.
Furthermore, Yun Sheng always felt that the High Priest’s intentions were not so simple.
But all of this was merely Yun Sheng’s personal guess; the specifics would only be known after entering the Bahuang Tower.
In the remaining three days, Yun Sheng did not go out again; she used this time to comprehend the Inheritor of that Eight-tailed Inheritance.
Dugu Xiu was also unseen for days; it seemed that after Hei Yao emerged from seclusion, Dugu Xiu became busy.
Finally, the third day arrived. In the morning, Yun Sheng opened her eyes.
"Still failed."
There was a hint of frustration in her eyes. She had worked tirelessly day and night, hoping for a breakthrough.
However, for some reason, every time she reached the critical point of comprehending the Eight-tailed Inheritance, something always blocked her, preventing the final breakthrough.
"Well, let’s focus on the Bahuang Tower task first," Yun Sheng exited her room, where Hu Qianqiu and others were waiting outside.
"Yun Shuang, try to stick with me once inside the Bahuang Tower," Yun Sheng had already regarded Lu Yunshuang as one of her own. The Bahuang Tower was full of unknown dangers, and having Lu Yunshuang with her would mean mutual support.
When the four of them reached the square, the Pengyu Clan and Qingming Wolf Tribe from the Eight Beast Clans had already arrived.
The Silver Roc saw Yun Sheng, his enemy, and his eyes burned with resentment.
"Hmph, you must have had incredible luck to make it all the way to the core match. But your luck is about to end; inside the Bahuang Tower, you’re dead," the Silver Roc said viciously.
"Young Clan Chief, if you truly have the capability, why didn’t you challenge me during the challenge match? Or are you planning to wait until we’re inside the Bahuang Tower to join forces with your cronies?" Yun Sheng glanced at Silver Roc.
Silver Roc was exposed by Yun Sheng’s words, and even with his thick skin, he couldn’t help but blush.
Silver Roc had originally planned to challenge Yun Sheng during the challenge match, but Yun Sheng had already made a move against Li Liqing from the Hei Qilin Tribe as soon as she stepped onto the stage.
Silver Roc hesitated to act immediately, secretly thinking that he alone was not Yun Sheng’s match.
But, as his friend Qing Ya entered the core match with him, and this assessment was held inside the Bahuang Tower, he planned to collaborate with Qing Ya.
After all, the Pengyu and Qingming Wolf Tribe had four people in the Bahuang Tower, while Yun Sheng’s group had only three, not to mention Yu Shang, who was not on good terms with Yun Sheng.
Four against two, he couldn’t believe they wouldn’t be able to kill Yun Sheng.
"Silver Roc, why waste words with this woman? I remember now, you’re the bastard from the Dutian Blood Realm, a bastard from the Wuji Continent who sneaked into the Bahuang Continent’s highest standard Eight Desolate Clan Competition. What is the Sky Fox Tribe even thinking?" Qing Ya from the Qingming Wolf Tribe chimed in.
They considered themselves the elite among the young generation of the Bahuang Continent, proud individuals all, and felt overshadowed by a mixed-blood, inevitably sparking jealousy.
"Who are you calling a bastard?" As soon as Qing Ya finished speaking, a chill came from behind him.
A cold, biting voice echoed in his ears, and the next moment, the feet of the Young Clan Chief Qing Ya left the ground.
"What are you doing!" Silver Roc was alarmed, but he didn’t dare to step forward.
Qing Ya’s face turned pale; despite his stature of nearly two meters, he was lifted off the ground like a chick, held by Ye Beiming’s grip around his neck.
It turned out that the disrespectful words Qing Ya used against Yun Sheng had been overheard by Ye Beiming, who had just entered.
Today, dressed in black, Ye Beiming’s golden patterns on his sleeves flowed like a stream as he walked, his black hair casually bound with a black ribbon, a few strands hanging loosely by his face, exuding a lazy elegance.
However, at that moment, Ye Beiming’s pitch-black eyes were filled with menacing clouds, oozing with murderous intent.
His thumb and forefinger gripped Qing Ya’s throat bone, and with just a bit of force, he could kill Qing Ya.
Any insult to Yun Sheng was punishable by death.
"Let him go quickly! High Priest, aren’t you going to control your disciple?" Qing Yan Clan Chief wanted to approach, but he found that, as a Martial God Realm warrior, he couldn’t get closer to Ye Beiming.
It was as if an invisible fighting energy wall had formed around him, preventing entry within three feet of Ye Beiming, a situation Qing Yan had only encountered with Hei Yao.
But this young man before him was much younger than Hei Yao; could it be that his strength was comparable to Hei Yao’s?
