Against Heaven's Will - Chapter 199

Chapter 199: Message

Xuefeng's bold call caused the experts to pause. He kept smirking throughout the encirclement, not giving in to the pressure. 

"I already saw most of you before. Do you think I wouldn't remember your faces?" Xuefeng asked as he glanced at certain individuals. 

Although not everyone, most of the experts were the same who already wanted to kill him before with the absence of a few important figures like the Dragon Race Member or the beautiful Elves. Xuefeng also saw a few new faces but that didn't change one fact. 

They knew him and already saw what he was capable of. 

"Hah, it's funny to me that you didn't learn your lesson during our first encounter," Xuefeng giggled as he flew to Katherine's side and caressed her cheek worry-free. "I showed you one-tenth of my power during the Tournament. I thought you will understand the power of the Elemental Bracelet and leave me alone but you keep on digging your graves."

The Servant squinted his eyes. 

"Don't listen to him. He is trying to manipulate you," he warned. "He can't stand a chance against all of you no matter what he says. He only has three Elemental Stones which are useless in this Land. I already paid you so do as you ordered. If my Master obtains the Elemental Bracelet, you will be rewarded once again." 

"Hah, am I really the one who is manipulating here?" Xuefeng quickly countered. "Imagine we get away, what then? Who will protect them from me? I remember all their faces. If they attack me right now, I will find every single one of them and kill them. It doesn't matter where they hide. I keep my word." 

"That won't happen. You won't live by tomorrow," the Servant argued but before he continued, Xuefeng cut him off again. 

"Are you sure?"

As he asked, he flipped his sword in the air. When he caught it, the air suddenly turned cold as small snowflakes appeared around them. 

The expert's expression changed in a blink as they quickly backed off while activating their Qi barriers. They were the exact ones who already witnessed the brutal power of his Ice Domain in the tournament. 

"Watch out!" they cried out in warning but it was too late. 

Boom! 

Ice spikes grew out of thin air and struck ten experts who were late with their reaction. They kept coming from all directions and even after being destroyed, the chunks of ice melted back into the water before freezing on their bodies. 

In just a few seconds, only their heads were uncovered while the rest of their bodies turned into ice sculptures. With the space locked, none of them could escape easily. 

"Wait, wait! Please don't kill me! I'm willing to leave!" 

"Me too! I will even give you what that man paid us!"

"Yes! I'm willing too!"

All experts gave in one by one, just as he wanted. There was no way their resolve to kill him was strong, to begin with. Although it wasn't a big deal to lose an Avatar, offending the Elemental Bracelet's holder was. 

"Oh, look at all of you. So cute. I thought you are not afraid to offend me?" Xuefeng asked amused. "I really wonder what made you think that you stand a chance against me just cause you have a number advantage. I didn't even resort to using my Fate Holder Abilities, let alone all my Forbidden Arts. I even limited the power of my Elemental Bracelet this whole time." 

He could feel the regret coming out from all the experts as he recounted but he didn't stop, turning to Katherine. 

"Can you tell me what's up with them? Do you think they are all suicidal and just want to die so badly?" Xuefeng asked as he embraced her waist, no longer caring what Sect Master Liu would think. 

Katherine shivered at first, but then looked at him and relaxed her body, moving closer to him. 

"I think they do. There is no one in the Heaven Realm that can compare with you. Why would they make an enemy out of you?" Katherine wondered as she laid her head on his shoulder.

Sect Master Liu frowned at that but he remained silent. 

"We were greedy Sir!" the experts called out in defense. "But we learned our lesson! Please don't hold grudges against us! We are not worth it." 

"You are right. I really don't have time to deal with all the small fishes," Xuefeng admitted as he extended his sword at the Servant. "I will be busy hunting for the Old Master who dared to challenge me." 

"Anyway," Xuefeng cut it short. "Next time think ten times before you waste my time. If I see you again one more time, I will take some time off my busy schedule to finish you for real."

Crack!

As he finished speaking, the ice statues broke before exploding together with the expert's bodies. He smiled watching the ice fall from the sky and grabbed ten Storage Rings, keeping them for later. 

"Anyone else wants a quick trip back to the God Realm? I'm in a good mood, so I can help you free of charge." 

No one dared to answer him and instead increased the distance between them. 

'Tsk, you are acting well considering you just used up all of your Water Qi for that one attack,' Ming teased. 

'Shhh, they don't know that…' Xuefeng shushed while keeping a straight face.

No one besides himself and his Fate Spirits knew how strong he actually was but when it came to Elemental Bracelet, that was the most he could do for now. Without taking advantage of the Qi existing in nature, he was greatly limited. If he was attacked once again, he would be forced to use Ming and Ling's strength to face them. 

Knowing his bull-shiting skills, Xuefeng wasn't even a bit worried, changing his focus to the Servant. 

"I thought your Master will bring me trouble but seeing how he doesn't even dare to face me directly I lost all respect for him. Go back to your Master and tell him he is a bitch."
