Chapter 142 - A City Soaked in Blood

On the lengthy street of Xian Kong Saint City, the bloody battle was still ongoing . Zhong Yue's Yuan Shen cast the【Eight Extreme Slaughtering Array】while his mortal body clenched seven Sword Qi in each arm leaving an extra arm to batter the coming monsters to death!

The【Eight Extreme Slaughtering Array】cast by the Yuan Shen was even more lethal, the monster Qi Practitioners that entered the slaughtering array would all be dismembered without even being able to put up a fight, and died bitterly!

While Zhong Yue clenched the seven Sword Qi in his hands, killing every single existence that obstructed his path like an unstoppable god of war .

But even so, there were too many monsters, and their attacks were all strange and versatile, each differing from one another . Some attacked in the form of sonic waves, some splashed over with streams of water, some blasted with light rays . There were claws, paws, teeth, tails and also all sorts of blunt weapons; attacks would come from the underground and the others descending from above — all this led to wounds mounting on his body!

However, the monsters that died in his hands were even more numerous . The monsters behind were advancing over endlessly, pushing and stepping on the bodies just to reach Zhong Yue . This led to their visions being obstructed by the monsters before them, leaving them oblivious to the tragic fate of their brethren only so that they would suffer it themselves when it was too late to realize

They all wanted to avenge Heavenly Monster Li Jun, but when they found themselves standing before Zhong yue, they would be killed before they could ever launch out an attack . The death of these monsters would give way to the next batch of monsters to have their lives reaped, and this process would seemingly continue ad infinitum!

"Who's going to stop them?"

On top of one of the jade buildings, a monster elder's countenance changed drastically upon seeing how quickly the situation below was devolving into a gory slaughter . The formerly boisterous street had now become a macabre abattoir . . He stomped his feet incessantly and said unsettling, "This can't go on anymore, if the younger continue to die like this, the future of the monster race would be placed in great jeopardy!"

There were around over hundreds of monster Qi Practitioners that had died under Zhong Yue's hand . Their remains piled up on the street to form mountains, as both sides continued their furious battle . The only thing that could be seen and heard were the flying corpses and the gruesome sounds of death . . Even the buildings on the sides of the streets swayed violently from the repercussions of the skills and soul weapons . Some buildings were even sent crumbling down to ruins!

The monsters partaking in the battle were unable to see such things on the ground, but the scene entered into the eyes of the experts on the top of the jade buildings as clear as day . It was too disastrous, the sea of monsters advancing forward wave upon wave, one after another . If this continued on, the number of monsters that would die today would be uncountable!

In a jade building beside, an elder shook his head, "Long Yue of the East Ocean dragon race has killed Heaven Monster Li Jun and enraged the crowd . And yet, before the battle, Heaven Monster Li Jun had piqued the crowds, galvanizing their spirits into a fanatic unity . And as he was killed, the collective will that he commanded from the monsters'  was all redirected to an undying impulse to avenge his death . What could possibly be done to awaken them from their madness?"

The other older generation experts nodded their heads and assented, "Who could have such an awe-inspiring prestige?"

Krong——  

All of a sudden, the two experts, Meng Xiang and Meng She rammed into the battlefield . Among the two, one of them was at the level of Rebirth while the other was an Awakening Qi Practitioner who had opened the Wan Xiang Wheel . Meng Xiang was in the front, he changed back into his true form, a mongoose with a long draggy tail and sized like an elephant . He opened his mouth and bit down at Zhong Yue!

While Meng She stood in the palm of his mongoose Yuan Shen, within the body of the Yuan Shen came two light buzzing sounds, and Wu Xing Wheel and Wan Xiang Wheel emerged out!

These two Qi Practitioners were close friends with Heaven Monster Li Jun . And as they moved, the other experts who were acquaintances to Heaven Monster Li Jun also joined the battle .  

Yu Xuanji gave a cold sneer, he yelled, "Trying to take advantage of numbers to bully Brother Long Yue? Senior Martial Brother Hei, call up the Qi Practitioners of our Qing Long Keep!"

Hei Hu gave a long whistle, the tiger's whistle reverberated through the air, and the many Qi Practitioners of the Qing Long Keep that were just watching before now lunged into the battlefield in Zhong Yue's aid .

Meanwhile, Hu Qingqing also released a long whistle, and the monster Qi Practitioners of the Luo Ying City soon followed suit!

"Things are devolving even further, this is bad!" one of the elder was stomping incessantly .

All of a sudden, an overwhelmingly strong and preeminently awe-inspiring aura rose from the lord's manor . It was thick and hefty, like a god or devil . It trembled the hearts of many and sent their bodies to quake in terror .  

Such an overpowering aura, it had shuddered all of the Qi Practitioners right away when it surged out!

The saint city lord of the Xian Kong Saint City, the strongest existence in the monster race, had finally stepped in!

"Now, stop!"



A majestic and dignified voice came from the lord's manor, resounding in the upper air wholly around the saint city . There was blood oozing out from the ears on some of the monsters with a weaker cultivation base, and even more so, some even fainted immediately!

The battle on the street suddenly stopped, all of the monsters regained their sanity and all that was left in their hearts was awe and terror, all thoughts of avenging Heaven Monster Li Jun was purged from their mind, only leaving behind abject panic and fear .


Zhong Yue also stopped, his breath was heavy and short, and fresh blood was still flowing down from the Sword Qi in his hands .  

A gentle breeze blew over, carrying with it the thick and sanguine smell of blood in the air . It was only then that the monsters started to notice the corpses and half-curdled blood on the ground . The blood that pooled beneath their feet reached up to their ankles, and their bodies were soaked in the same . It was now that they noticed that the whole street had now been turned into a bloody incarnation of hell!

Fear began to creep into their hearts as they turned their gazes to stare in abject fright towards the youngster standing at the center of the field of corpses - it was like they were beholding the god of slaughter .

They were engulfed in their anger and madness to drove them to kill Zhong Yue and avenge Heaven Monster Li Jun, which led them to ignore the scene they now witnessed . And now, as the blood-soaked street and the remains of their fallen comrades came into their eyes, the originally impassioned fire of madness in their hearts was now supplanted by a frigid fear and terror towards Zhong Yue .  

The monsters that died here today were too many . From the death of Li Jun until now, merely fifteen minutes of time had elapsed, and the body count had already numbered over a hundred monsters and Qi Practitioners . Zhong Yue slaughtered them as if simply chopping vegetables and fruits - it was utterly terrifying!

If it were not for the saint city lord that commanded them to stop, there was no telling the number that the casualties would've reached . . Especially when Zhong Yue was supported by the Qi Practitioners of the Qing Long Keep and the Luo Ying City . In that case, this battle that was originally a street fight between the younger generation would have evolved into a proxy war between the major forces of the monster race!

Zhong Yue cast his gaze around, looking at the corpses piling up like hills and his heart palpitated with unease, It's fine if I had only killed Heaven Monster Li Jun . It was after all, a battle for the disciple selection . But now, I've killed so many monsters, this is getting really really bad… .

Those that had died in his hands had friends and families, some were even Qi Practitioners of the major forces . And yet, he had killed so many of them . He feared that he might not be able to secure a place in Xian Kong Saint City anymore!

And even if the monster saint city lord did have the intention to take Zhong Yue under as his closed door disciple, he would have to consider, whether if it was worth it to rouse the anger of the other major forces and Qi Practitioners .

I've killed too many monsters, if the saint city lord accepts me as his discple, he can still protect my safety . But if he doesn't want to take me, then… .



Zhong Yue's eyelids twitched for a second and he thought to himself, I've killed too fast, and too smoothly, I wasn't even able to stop . Plus, in such a perilous situation, I couldn't afford to restrain myself either, otherwise, I would've died for sure… .

In the saint city lord's manor, the overpowering aura was even stronger and thicker, it was as if a god was just sitting right there . His voice came into their ears, "The battle between Long Yue and Heaven Monster Li Jun was done under both parties' free-will . If the rightful victor is to be killed out of anger, where will the face of our monster race be? I'm ashamed of your actions, and so is the whole of the monster race!"

The monsters shuddered in fear and panic, no one dared to say anything .

The saint city lord of monster race has voiced out, who dares to refute? The monster elders then settled down their uneasy hearts and heaved a long breath of relief . Only the saint city lord was able to placate such a livid crowd to stop more blood from flowing .  

If the Qing Long Keep and Luo Ying City Qi Practitioners were also to join into the battle, the already precarious would have only exacerbated to a full-blown war between the major forces . This could have potentially led to the splintering of the East Barren monster race into different factions, further dividing their strength!

The involvement of the Qing Long Keep and Luo Ying City would involve many more expert Qi Practitioners that would snowball as more and more monsters would join the fray . Division was a smaller issue when considered against the deterioration of the monster race's overall prowess!

But the central figure of this whole conflict, Zhong Yue, did not have such concerns . In fact, it would only be great news for humanity if the situation were to play out as just described . . But he knew that it was impossible, after all, there was still someone who was cognizant of such matters, and he would take any measures necessary so as to prevent such a situation from unfolding . This individual was precisely the saint city lord . This whole skirmish was merely child's plays in his eyes, something that he could easily suppress .

All of a sudden, Zhong Yue could feel a surge of overwhelming psyche billowing over, circumnavigating around him, examining his Yuan Shen and investigating his mortal body .

Zhong Yue stood still and allowed the overwhelming psyche to ram in while Xin Huo turned into an ordinary little flame and engulfed the beast god inner core as if it were a little fireball .

The overwhelming psyche gushed into Zhong Yue's psyche ocean, it was as if someone was scrutinizing his psyche ocean with a pair of deep and somber eyes, examining every corner of his body .

The psyche came from the saint city lord's manor, from the monster saint city lord, with the sole purpose to dig out the secrets Zhong Yue held!

Moments later, the psyche began to ebb, and the saint city lord's sound could be heard saying, "Long Yue won, fair and square; Heaven Monster Li Jun lost, he deserved his death . Then today, my closed door disciple has been decided . Long Yue, when your wounds are healed… . "



"Please wait for a moment!"

Just when the saint city lord was going to announce Zhong Yue as his closed door disciple, a voice suddenly came into their ears, he shouted out loud, "Teacher, please wait!"

All of the monsters in the saint city cast their gazes over, Lang Qingyun was walking out from a jade building, he bowed at the direction of the saint city lord's manor and said, "Teacher, I've some doubts on this Long Yue's identity, I suspect that he is not one of the dragon race, but a spy from the human race . And I have suspicions in him that relates to an incident in the Savanna Wasteland, I beseech the teacher to wait for a moment!"

Incident in the Savanna Wasteland?

It expression remained unmoved, but under that calm veneer, his heart started to palpitate faster and harder . , What did Lang Qingyun noticed? The incident in the Savanna Wasteland, could it be the incident where I saved Senior Martial Sister Jun from the monsters? It is indeed true that I wasn't able to completely wipe off the traces of my involvement!

Back then, Zhong Yue was still callow and inexperienced, a far cry from the way he his now - shrewd and astute . The battles in the Savanna Wasteland, he had left behind too many traces, and these traces were clues and hints that directed to him!

Lang Qingyun was also one of the experts and pursuers that was hunting after Jun Sixie, Fang Jiange and the others . He must have examined the traces left behind by Zhong Yue during the battles, and from the traces of the weapons and skills left on the scene, he managed to deduce that the suspect he was looking for was a human Qi Practitioner!

"Xin Huo, is it possible that you can fight a way out of the Xian Kong Saint City for us?" Zhong Yue's face was unchanged as he asked quietly .
