“You… I have no idea what you’re talking about,” An Yaluoshan somewhat frantically said.


He truly was a little panicked!


Wang Chong could see Dragon Qi?


How was that possible?


Didn’t Gao Shang say that only the True Dragon Son of Heaven and the Qi observers who had gone extinct during the Qin-Han period could see it?!


Swish!


An Yaluoshan misstepped in his panic, and he was struck by Wang Chong’s vicious Sword Qi on his shoulder. But there was only the sound of tearing silk as the cloth at his shoulder was torn open. Despite being struck by such fierce Sword Qi, he was completely uninjured. It was as if that attack had run into some invisible barrier.


“You still want to play the fool in front of this king? I let you escape two years ago, so I might as well kill you today and end the problem once and for all!” Wang Chong coldly said.


Fury of Rhino and Elephant!


Wang Chong artfully turned and unleashed his third attack.


The move was the Fury of Rhino and Elephant in the War Dance, but in reality, it was Wang Chong’s Life Execution.


This was an extremely dangerous attack, so fierce that even a Great General would find it hard to block.


Bang!


An Yaluoshan was struck by the attack and sent staggering backward, but he remained unharmed.


Wang Chong finally frowned at this. The Art of God and Demon Obliteration was the most lethal of his techniques, and it had only gotten stronger through training and refinement. Even if it was suppressed by the Power of the World, seventy percent of its power should have still been extremely formidable.


An Yaluoshan did not have the strength to take the attacks unharmed.


A ritual tool!


Wang Chong suddenly realized. He quickly scanned An Yaluoshan’s body and soon spotted black rings that An Yaluoshan was wearing on the thumb, index finger, and ring finger of his right hand. They were simple rings made of some unknown material.


An Yaluoshan wore a jacket and puffy pants, and his midriff was exposed. There was no place to hide anything, and the only suspicious point was the three rings on his hand.


Cry of the Rhino and Elephant!


Wang Chong continued to follow a set path, stepping to the Kan position, crossing the Li position, and then turning his sword around to slash at An Yaluoshan.


Bang!


The air shrieked as the sword descended, and even the skies above the Pavilion of Petal and Sepal were torn open, creating a long and straight fissure several dozen feet long in the air.


Upon confirming the source of An Yaluoshan’s strength, Wang Chong decided to show no more mercy.


“Ah!”


Everyone cried out in alarm upon seeing this frightening attack, stunned by the power of Wang Chong’s sword!


Bang!


An Yaluoshan panicked in the face of Wang Chong’s attack, finally unleashing his hidden energy. He punched with his right hand, and Stellar Energy exploded from the three black rings to block Wang Chong’s attack.


A gigantic explosion ripped through the pavilion, shaking the ground slightly with its force. Meanwhile, the officials and foreign dignitaries had long ago been struck dumb.


What performance? This was clearly a battle to the death!


“Your Majesty, this…”


Next to the throne, the old eunuch glanced hesitantly at the ‘Sage Emperor’.


There were so many officials and foreign emissaries present, but two important officials of the empire were engaging in open battle right in front of them. This was far too inappropriate.


“Let them continue!”


The reply left the old eunuch dumbfounded.


The ‘Sage Emperor’ stared at Wang Chong and An Yaluoshan, not even blinking.


His expression was cold, his voice even colder.


“Did you not hear? The King of Foreign Lands is performing for Us the War Dance of the Qin-Han period, a traditional dance of generals in the Central Plains. An Yaluoshan is performing for Us the whirling dance of the Hu. Both of them have ample reasons. What reason have We to stop them or refuse their offerings?!”



As a member of the imperial household who had received a traditional education, ‘Third Son Xuan’ had almost instantly recognized Wang Chong’s War Dance. This was why he had not tried to stop it.


Kill, then! We will wait for you!


The ‘Sage Emperor’ looked down from his throne, the killing intent in his eyes thickening.


Boomboomboom!


As the ‘Sage Emperor’ had no intent of stopping it, Wang Chong had redoubled his efforts. As long as he could kill An Yaluoshan, he did not care about anything else.


What about the feast of all countries? What about the ‘Sage Emperor”s rage?


An Yaluoshan needed to be killed!


In the face of Wang Chong’s sharp, vicious, and domineering assault, An Yaluoshan was forced to use everything at his disposal.


An Yaluoshan had been able to restrain himself a little before, hiding his strength so that not even Cui Qianyou or Tian Chengsi knew the true depths of his power, but he could hold nothing back in front of the King of Foreign Lands.


Boomboomboom!


Stellar Energy rolled off his body, clashing with Wang Chong’s Sword Qi.


“Lord Strategist, what do we do?”


At the edge of the hall, Cui Qianyou turned nervously to Gao Shang.


The situation seemed extremely bad for An Yaluoshan. Wang Chong’s intervention had thrown their plans into disarray, and it was only a matter of time until their liege was injured.


Gao Shang had arranged all the plans, and he was Cui Qianyou’s only hope at this time.


“Don’t panic,” Gao Shang coolly said as he stared at the two. “If Wang Chong wishes to defeat… the Protector-General, he won’t have it that easy. The foreign emissaries and officials are all gathered, so if they both unleash their full strength, they will undoubtedly injure members of the crowd, and His Majesty will not be able to sit back and watch! Have you not noticed that the Sage Emperor is closely watching the two of them?”


Cui Qianyou and Tian Chengsi were taken aback, and they looked at the expression on the ‘Sage Emperor’ and were flabbergasted.


“The Sage Emperor has been dissatisfied with the King of Foreign Lands for some time now, and if Wang Chong messes up or injures His Excellency, the Sage Emperor will have the best excuse to deal with him! If we use this situation well, His Excellency might be able to use it to bring down this foe of ours early,” Gao Shang said, his eyes sharp and his expression cold.


Cui Qianyou and Tian Chengsi were shocked. They had only seen their liege on the ropes, not even considering the other aspects.


“But we can’t make it too obvious, so His Excellency can’t lose too quickly,” Gao Shang coldly said, his eyes flashing with countless schemes.


“Most importantly, did you not notice? His Excellency… has not stopped draining,” Gao Shang whispered.


He could not say the words ‘Dragon Qi’, but Cui Qianyou and Tian Chengsi immediately understood.


They had not come to the capital to deal with Wang Chong, but to seize the Dragon Qi of the Central Plains.


Though Wang Chong was constantly pressuring them, and though the situation looked grim, An Yaluoshan was continuing to drain Dragon Qi.


Gao Shang couldn’t see it, but he could observe the stars.


From the moment their operation had started, the star that represented An Yaluoshan was growing stronger and stronger. Wang Chong’s intervention had only slightly slowed the process.


Gao Shang had invested many days of preparation into this scheme, and this was perhaps their only chance. They would never again be able to so openly seize Dragon Qi.


A border general could not casually leave their post!


Gao Shang had not predicted Wang Chong’s interference, but he had predicted many other possible mishaps, and the numerous preparations he had made ensured that the draining of Dragon Qi would not be interrupted.


The shifting of masters, the encounter between the new and old true dragons, was a matter of grave importance. Numerous strategists and diviners had tried their entire lives to obtain such a chance. Now that he had such a good chance, how could he just give it up or let it result in failure?


King of Foreign Lands, you can’t stop us! I prepared far too much for this moment, and the flow cannot be stopped. Did you think that you could stop it alone with just your sword? You’ve actually already lost this round!


Gao Shang’s eyes flashed as he stared at the two in the center.


“Lord Protector-General, since the King of Foreign Lands has decided to give a rare performance and accompany you, Lord Protector-General cannot fall behind and disappoint the Sage Emperor!” Gao Shang loudly called out.


On the other side, An Yaluoshan had been appearing to just barely hold on against Wang Chong’s assault, but when he heard Gao Shang’s words, he shivered all over as if he had been shaken awake.


Another fierce attack came from Wang Chong’s sword, hurtling toward his arm, and An Yaluoshan suddenly turned savage.


“Wang Chong, don’t go too far! You really think I’m afraid of you?”


An Yaluoshan’s eyes suddenly blazed to life.


Bang!


He stomped forward, and the earth shook as white jade stones shattered. A storm of Stellar Energy swept up the jade debris, forming a ‘hurricane’ that howled toward Wang Chong.


Boomboomboom!


Dust and debris filled the air. An Yaluoshan and Wang Chong were both engulfed in this storm, hidden from the eyes of the crowd.


“Warning!”


Suddenly, the Stone of Destiny called out in Wang Chong’s mind, causing him to grimace.


“User’s actions have not halted the decrease of Dragon Qi. The Destined Foe continues to steal the Dragon Qi of the Central Plains. User has been penalized 200,000 points of Destiny Energy. Further penalties calculating!”
