Chapter 392: Chapter 164: Emperor Xi Xi Subdues the Dragon and Feels the Jade, Divine Spear Draws the Purple Qi Jiao Long [Seeking Monthly Ticket]_4
Xue Dufuās lone sleeve fluttered in the wind, but he did not seem to care about Xi Xi being taken away.
His original intention was merely to scare Xi Xi away.
After beating up the Young Prince, he still wanted to filch the Qiankun Jade from him, which was naturally unacceptable!
It was already a loss of face, but if the Qiankun Jade were to be taken by a little girl, the Young Princeās reputation⦠would be thoroughly trampled into the dirt.
If word of this reached King Ping Luan Ji Moli, who was currently quelling the rebellion.
Xue Dufu would certainly bear the sin of negligence, peeling off layers!
"That girl defeated the Young Prince, and now she even wants to snatch the Qiankun Jade, such humiliation⦠How could I sit by and watch the Young Prince suffer?ā
Xue Dufu said coldly.
He also fearlessly met Lu Yaoās gaze.
With King Ping Luan Ji Molie standing behind him, he naturally had tremendous confidence.
Xue Dufu also knew why Qin Tian Jianās Lu Yao chose to stand on the side of the Divine Sectā¦
It was also because of the Prince.
The Princeās rebellion in Jizhou had lasted too long, and the Corpse God Cult was still growingā¦
The Imperial Court⦠had suspicions about the Prince too.
But at this moment, he had to show his strength.
"Lu Yao, you, a mere Vice Director of Dao City Imperial Observatory, dare to bully my Young Prince⦠If it were the Vice Director from the Capital Divine Heaven Bureau, then it would be another story. Wait till this gets back to the Princeās ears, and he will demand an explanation from you!ā
Xue Dufu picked up the Young Prince, who was pretending to have fainted on the ground.
At this moment, he was glaring coldly at Lu Yao with murderous intent swirling around him.
One Lu Yao, one Wang Kuyu.
"Even if this matter reaches the Princeās ears, I, Lu Yao, fear nothing. Li Nuanxi is the daughter of a Second-Class Guest Official of the Imperial Observatory, and I, as the Vice Supervisor, protect her life, which is only normal,ā
"Even if it escalates to the Divine Capital, I have justice on my side.ā
Lu Yao, with his hair and beard flying, stood with his hands behind him.
"Besides
"If youāre defeated, you must admit defeat. Having your Qiankun Jade taken from you simply means your skills were inferior.ā
"As the saying goes, practice more if youāre unskilled.ā
Lu Yao spoke without mincing words, not being the least bit courteous just because Xue Dufu was a Grandmaster under Ji Molieās command.
After all, Xue Dufu doesnāt even rank in the top five among Grandmasters under Ji Molieā¦
Xue Dufuās complexion turned extremely dark as six Black Armored Warriors also drew out their Horse-Slaying Sabers, exuding a formidable military presence in unison. į±šĘÕĪŠsĢ©
But it was just a stand-off.
Because with a single wave from Nan Lihuo, a burst of energy erupted from the numerous peaks within the Divine Sect Branch.
There were Void Aspects, Divine Foundationsā¦
The cultivators within the sect were all fearless.
Li Qingshan, even more impulsive and explosive, was ready to charge out.
Yet, he was stopped by Weng Wuyu.
"Donāt be rash and escalate the conflict; do you really intend to keep the other side here?ā Weng Wuyu said in his old voice: āEveryone is just putting on a show⦠to maintain face.ā
"With the Temple God Resonance imminent, no one wants to blow things up.ā
Li Qingshan reluctantly put away his Ram Horn Hammer.
Atop the peak, the deep snow whirled and danced.
Xue Dufu, holding the Young Prince in one arm, took a deep breath.
"Very well, very well⦠A fine Divine Child from Golden Light Prefecture.ā
"A splendid Qianyuan Jingguang Branch!ā
Xue Dufu repeated āvery wellā three times, then turned around, holding the Young Prince, and heavily stomped down.
The entire Golden Light Peak seemed to tremble.
Then, he catapulted himself away, carrying the Young Prince across a parabola toward Mansion City.
The six Black Armored Warriors also retreated into the sky one after another.
Xi Xi, held in Li Cheās arms, suddenly couldnāt help but struggle.
"Why run away! Remember to honor the bet!ā
"Xi Xi will be waiting for you, you little servant!ā Xi Xi shouted.
Li Che quickly flicked her head.
Xi Xi immediately clutched her head, looking aggrieved.
"Daddy, it hurts
Li Che said irritably, āWhat did Daddy teach you? Donāt try to be a hero when youāre outside. Keep a low profile and if you ever meet an opponent you canāt overcome, what will you do if you get beaten up?ā
Xi Xiās eyes brimmed with tears, her small mouth puckered, and her round cheeks puffed out.
"Daddy, Xi Xiās hand hurts
Poor little Xi Xi looked so pitiful.
"Your hand hurts? Let Daddy see!ā
Upon hearing this, Li Cheās expression immediately changed.
He grabbed Xi Xiās plump arm that was as tender as a section of lotus root.
After all, since the Fire Tip Spear within Xi Xi had activated on its own, Li Che was also worried it would affect Xi Xi, although it most likely wouldnāt.
Divine Weapons have a spirit, and since it has entered Xi Xiās body and recognizes Xi Xi as its master, even though Xi Xi canāt wield it actively, the Divine Weapon wouldnāt harm its master.
The Mud Pill between the brows faintly glowed.
Divine Skills⦠Star Plucking Pupil!
After a glance, Li Che couldnāt help but exclaim in surprise.
Because⦠Xi Xiās arm had completely changed!
The toughness of the flesh and blood had greatly increased compared to before!
The current resilience of the tendons, membranes, and muscles in the arm housing the Divine Weapon wasnāt even weaker than his, the Furnace Grandmaster!
This was the strength from within the Divine Weapon affecting Xi Xi!
Comparable to⦠bone washing and marrow cleansing!
This is simplyā¦
Li Che was shook. Four Royal Divine Weapons⦠had such an effect?!
No, it should be said, do Mythical Weapons truly have such an effect?
This is an immense boon for the cultivation of the Martial Path!
Li Cheās eyes twinkled as he seemed to vaguely understand something.
No wonder in this world, the upper limit of the Martial Path continues to rise, even before the emergence of Divine Methods and the spread of the Mysterious Temple.
It was extremely difficult to reach the Grandmaster level in the Qi and Blood Martial Path.
And now, there have even been Martial Saints, and even beyond Martial Saints!
Li Che speculated that this might also be related to the subtle enhancement of the physique by these Divine Weapons!
He wondered if the Mythical Weapon he had obtained, the Equal to Heavenās Face, also had such a powerful physical effect?
However, his Equal to Heavenās Face was an incomplete Mythical Weaponā¦
Perhaps heād have to wait until he collected the complete Mythical Weapon to see.
And after confirming that Xi Xi was alright.
Li Che also let out a sigh of relief and felt at ease.
This girl⦠scared him.
When Xi Xi said she was in pain, Li Cheās heart had instinctively tightened.
He even thought that Grandmaster Xue Dufu had harmed herā¦
The urge to kill almost burst forth from within him.
However, even at this moment, the killing intent in Li Cheās heart had not subsided.
Li Che carefully observed again, not only the arm but also checked her entire body.
Only when he was sure that the state of this girl Xi Xi was better than ever, did he completely relax.
Xi Xiās fist was slightly red on the surface, probably because she had been too excited pounding it and caused it to redden.
Besides, under the perception of Li Cheās Star Plucking Pupil, the Purple Flame Serpent Spear within Xi Xiās arm, after beating up the Dragon God Purple Pupilās Young Prince, became listlessly quiet.
Li Che even felt the opponentās emotions of regret and boredom.
It seemedā¦
As if it disapproved of the dragon as a mere fake and didnāt extract what it wantedā¦
Unsatisfied.
Li Che:
It felt like a rush of personality had just hit him in the face.
However, Li Cheās Star Plucking Pupil in his brow lit up slightly.
He saw from Xi Xiās arm that the Purple Flame Serpent Spearās head emitted a wisp of purple qi, resembling a Jiao Longā¦
Long and sinuous, seemingly with the scales of a python, the length of a crocodile, and the horns of a Jiao!
Continuously swirling like aromatic incense.
