Battle Emperor - Chapter 38

Chapter 38

Meeting Te La again, Xie Ao Yu was already no longer the same as before. He was now filled with self-confidence. He stepped forward, coldly looking at Te La and the others.

The enhancing of strength and the increase in confidence made his disposition change.

“Surround them for me.” Te La still had some concerns about Xie Ao Yu’s Earth Escape Technique. His primary goal was to let the others surround Xie Ao Yu so that wherever Xie Ao Yu appeared, he could contact with his underlings for knowledge, allowing him to instantly locate where he comes out.

Xie Ao Yu also didn’t stop them, allowing those people to form their encirclement.

Probably because they feared Xie Ao Yu would use Earth Escape Technique to kill them, these people’s encirclement was very large, at least thirty meters wide. It was also a method of protecting themselves.

Only then did Te La pick up his cane knife and walk forward.

Experiencing the Black Scaled Wyvern’s chasing frenzy, Te La already hated Xie Ao Yu to his core. He had originally formed this small band of thieves. Although it couldn’t be compared to those large-scale thief groups, it still had some power, at least enough to not worry about eating and drinking. But now, due to Xie Ao Yu, now there were only a few people left.

After the Black Scaled Wyvern found out its spirit beast egg had been stolen, it had pursued with an even wilder vigor. Even Te La barely survived, and his brothers, especially some of the elites, had all died.

Every time he thought about it, he felt more fear and more anger.

After escaping, he gathered the remainders that were left at home and brought all of his brothers to find Xie Ao Yu. During that time they had run into some powerful mercenary groups and strong spirit beasts, in the end they wound up with just these few people. How could it not make him feel hate.

I’m going to cut you into a million pieces!” Te La coldly yelled.

Xie Ao Yu then silently pulled out the Lightning Spirit Holy Sword.

The holy sword out of its scabbard, beneath the rising sun, produced a cold gleam. The ice cold sword edge’s dense chill sent shivers down the others’ spines.

“Bring your life here!” Te La angrily charged forward.

He was like a bolt of lightning, frightful speed that reached the limits. His goal was to not let Xie Ao Yu use the Earth Escape Technique to enter the ground. This time he made the first move to put pressure on Xie Ao Yu.

The cane knife was swung, shining a bright sword light in every direction.

Xie Ao Yu felt his entire person was suppressed by this sword light, as if he had been plunged beneath ice. This was the strength of a lower Spirit level.

He was also secretly glad. Previously when he and Te La fought, he had been lucky to use the Earth Escape Technique at the start, otherwise, if under this sort of attack, he wouldn’t have had a chance to use the Earth Escape Technique.

But now it wasn’t the same thing.

He was already upper Advanced leveled. The powerful Te La could only get his blood pumping.

“Hu!”

The Lightning Spirit Sword roared as if it were devouring a dragon.

Fighting skill… Scarlet Lightning Exploding Chop!

This move was a top level killing technique!

The qi in his body surged, the tri-colored ball’s red lightning rampaged even more inside. Then out of his body surged countless crimson electric lights. Those shocking electric lights converged into one location. Like a crimson thunder dragon roaring, it blasted forward along with the Lightning Holy Sword.  

“Clang!”

The sword light strike approached, but seeing Te La’s figure whirling like a tornado, turning in the air, it cut down Xie Ao Yu’s terrifying attack. At the same time, he leapt backwards into the air, his heart shocked, “How did this kid suddenly become so much stronger? His qi is indeed not inferior to mine. Just yesterday, his was much less than mine.”

After that one attack, he couldn’t immediately follow-up.

Xie Ao Yu leapt into the air, not giving Te La a chance to counter attack, and swung down his sword heavily. This sword had an unsurpassable aura. It was truly unrivaled.

Facing Te La, everything else was passive. After exchanging this blow, Xie Ao Yu’s confidence overflowed. His aura went up without limit, and he became braver.

(TN: I may or may not have massacred this line.  之前面对Te La ，处处被动，此番一招，便令Xie Ao Yu 信心爆棚，气势无线攀升，如此更是勇猛。)

The Lightning Spirit Holy Sword sliced through the air, creating an explosive sound, increasing its speed to the max.

Te La stomped against the ground, diagonally charging out.

“Boom!”

Xie Ao Yu’s Lightning Spirit Holy Sword heavily struck the ground, immediately creating a five meter long gash into the earth. The gravel on either side, the weeds, and the other things were sent flying into the air. He himself once again rose up into the air, as if he was an eagle hovering over, preparing to capture and kill a rabbit.

This attack with that imagery made Te La’s face color change again.

He frantically ran to the left.

“Da da da…”

Every footstep made the ground shake. The cane knife continuously hit those loose rocks, blocking Xie Ao Yu’s attack. He was indeed startled and his heart rate had gone up.

Te La was very curious and very depressed.

He had originally come to kill Xie Ao Yu for revenge, but now it was like this. He had been chased by Xie Ao Yu and forced to run and jump for his life. And he knew that Xie Ao Yu hadn’t even used the Earth Escape Technique yet.

“Clang clang clang…”

The loose rocks were destroyed by Xie Ao Yu.

Te La took this opportunity to catch his breath. He looked up and angrily shouted: “Boy, take my one blow to decide the match!” He suddenly turned his body, his sword moved faster than lightning.

This strike was Te La’s core sword technique.

It was also what Te La’s fundamentals were based on. He had used this slash to kill countless masters. He used this technique now because he hoped that it would bring him victory.

Xie Ao Yu’s eyes were sharp. The Lightning Spirit Holy Sword in his hands began to move.

Scarlet Lightning Exploding Chop!

“Qiang!”

The two blades clashed in the air, emitting a loud “qiang” sound. Xie Ao Yu and Te La shocked each other at the same time. The entirety of their qi exploded out. Following that was a trace of crimson electric light exploding out of the tip of the Lightning Spirit Holy Sword.

The piercing cold cane knife let out a crisp ring.

“Kacha!”

The cane knife broke.

Xie Ao Yu’s Lightning Spirit Holy Sword then like breaking a dead branch from a tree, using strength to break through, getting the first strike of crimson electric light on Te La. Due to the electricity, his hair exploded up, his body was sent flying into the air, limbs splayed out, letting out a scream.

(TN: Yeah, I’m pretty sure he’s bald so the author might be talking about pit hair? Or I suck at translating)

Following that, the Lightning Spirit Holy Sword went straight for Te La’s chest.

Te La shook his head once, his face had become incomparably white. In this life and death moment, he desperately bent his body back, hoping that he could dodge Xie Ao Yu’s attack.

“Pu!”

Blood spurted out.

On Te La’s chest appeared a half meter long bloody gash. The blood gurgled, and due to the shock he spat out blood. He then flew out, “Brothers, go up together!”

After landing on the ground, Te La clutched his chest, continuously backing up. He couldn’t believe his eyes. The young man he had defeated just yesterday, now could actually beat him so easily.

But the pain on his chest told him, this was all very real!

He lost the fight.

Not only that, he had been cleanly defeated.

“How could this be?”

“Big bro has actually been defeated.”

“This kid wasn’t even an opponent yesterday. What’s going on today.”

Te La’s underlings all couldn’t believe their eyes. They had seen quick changes, but never a change like this. Even Te La wanted to say, it’s not that I don’t understand, it’s this world is changing too fast.

A group of people yelled out, and charged forward.

They wanted to join forces to kill Xie Ao Yu.

Te La also pulled out a new sword. He wanted to find an opportunity to kill Xie Ao Yu. As for his underlings, under his command, were charging without regard for their own lives.

“It’s this beauty’s time to shine.” Qin Yueyi lifted a short sword, intending to charge forward and kill.

Xie Ao Yu coldly stared at those people, the Lightning Spirit Holy Sword in his hand slowly went down, pointing into the ground. The aura around his body became sharp.

Fighting skill… Overlord Dragon Boxing!

“Boom!”

The ten or so people in front of Xie Ao Yu, all of them were sent flying in a bloody mess. The power behind that fist was like exploding thunder, making the others stop in their tracks.

Fighting skill… Earth Escape Technique!!!

Xie Ao Yu stomped his foot and his person disappeared. When he reappeared, he was behind the left side of the people rushing forward. The Lightning Spirit Holy Sword horizontally slashed once.

The sword light rattled, and blood flew into the sky.

These ten people all lost their lives, not a single survivor.

Before his feet landed on the ground, the Lightning Spirit Holy Sword horizontal slash already had lots of strength. Facing the remaining ten people or so that were seven or eight meters away it slashed again.

Fighting skill… Scarlet Lightning Exploding Chop!

Crimson electric light rushed out, converging into one point, creating a sword light.

The sword light and electric light combined into one and charged over.

None of those people could block Xie Ao Yu’s sword. Those ten people frantically attacked. Under that shining light, the sky became full of blood, their bodies became stumps.

“Old Xie, leave one for this beauty.” Qin Yueyi called out.

Xie Ao Yu’s sword was fast. Qin Yueyi from start to finish hadn’t even made a move, before all of the people were already taken care of. Witnessing this, Te La’s head was dizzy.

No matter what, he couldn’t believe what he had just seen with his eyes.
