Way of the Devil - Chapter 631

Chapter 631: 631

Du Xia’s mouth was open slightly . Her thoughts were in a mess . How could it be him?!

She felt as if her previous understanding had been all but overturned . Her mind went blank . She wanted to clarify something, but she did not now where she should start .

She knew that person so well . She’d never thought that he would possess similar abilities as hers .

However, this truth which was completely unbelievable to her was present before her very eyes . Du Xia even wondered if she was hallucinating .

Zhou Quanwu’s beautiful eyes bulged as well . She had guessed the identities of several powerful peak Geshas and some adults with devious minds . However, the person before her eyes was definitely not on any of those lists .

A cold breeze blew across the plains . Several big and tall figures walked toward them . Even from a distance, the strong and fierce root-like knots of their muscles were visible .

The man in the lead had a crew cut . His exposed arms alone pulled up thoughts of steel, city walls, furnace, and other heavy imageries .

His most striking features were his wolf-like eyes . They were intrusive as they slowly scanned Zhou Quanwu’s body .

“Nice to meet you . I’m Du Xiong . Our Little Xia has been in your care . ” Lu Sheng crushed the sunglasses in his hands and tossed the fragments aside .

He wore a black slim-fit shirt and dark-colored jeans . His top buttons were undone, and a green diamond-shaped crystal pendant, which had the character “Xia” inscribed on, hung on his bear-like neck .

“Du Xiong!” Zhou Quanwu would never have thought that Du Xia’s elder brother, whom she had dismissed in her plans, would turn out to be such a formidable character . He was not a Gesha, yet he was capable of persuading the Frost Moon Tyrant and Hundred Flower Immortal to betray her at the same time .

For a time, her expression kept changing . The details which she had never noticed before surfaced in her mind right now . However, she could not find any flaw with this man .

Du Xia’s jaw dropped as well . Her gaping mouth could fit an egg .

She did not expect things to take a complete turn when she was at such a disadvantage .

What exceeded her expectations was that her own brother, the brother who she had always thought was a mere mortal, was capable of… turning two witch Geshas secretly and had them work against Zhou Quanwu at the same time .

“Brother…” Du Xia opened her mouth because she wanted to ask him something . However, she knew that this was not the time to be asking questions . Hence, she buried her puzzlement in her heart .

“I know what you want to ask me . However, I wasn’t born with my strength as you all have been . I’ve climbed slowly up to the peak through arduous training and cultivation . ” When Lu Sheng passed by Du Xia, he reached out and pinched her gaping mouth .

Du Xia’s mind was a mess . She remembered that her brother had been experiencing mysterious progress in his martial arts cultivation . When she saw his current might, there were too many questions in her heart that needed answering .

“Alright . Leave this to me . ” Lu Sheng pulled Du Xia gently to his side .

“Bring Little Xia away . Let her rest . ”

All of a sudden, two women with black hair tied neatly in ponytails appeared in the plains . They bowed slightly at Lu Sheng, and the two of them supported Du Xia carefully .

“Keh, keh…” Zhou Quanwu started coughing vehemently . “Who gave you permission to leave?” White radiance burst forth from behind her . A dozen tough Geshas with various equipment appeared in the plains .

“Kill everyone except Du Xia,” Zhou Quanwu said coldly . “Also, Star Sand God Children, Imperial Phoenix, how long do you plan on watching the show? Without Du Xia’s third core, we can never open the God Clock . ”

Zhou Quanwu’s wounds were visibly recovering . At the current moment, they were mostly healed .

Gradually, clusters of white radiance landed on the vast plains . After the radiance faded, two young people in the Imperial Phoenix’s white uniforms stepped forward with cold expressions .

On the other side, the people had completely blended in with the plains and made no moves for a long time . They must have been the so-called God Children .

“The leaders of the Imperial Phoenix, Star Sand, and the Misty Erosion are all gathered here?” Lu Sheng did not expect there to be someone else hiding here . His spirit had not detected them .

“The only condition for the God Clock to be activated is that Du Xia gives up her body and becomes the key . We can’t compromise on this,” said the Imperial Phoenix coldly . “I don’t care about the mess of a relationship between your lot, the God Clock must be opened . If it’s not, everyone here”—he pointed a finger and turned it in a circle—”must die!”

“Preposterous!” Lin Shishi walked over slowly . She removed her sunglasses . Her eyes were ice-cold and full of killing intent .

“You’re the first person in the world who dares talk to my master in that manner . ” She stared at the Imperial Phoenix, and could not have cared less about his official rank .

“Should we take him out? This is the time when Master needs us . ” Another young, beautiful black-haired girl in a pink-colored dress leapt deftly from midair and landed soundlessly before Lu Sheng .

Several female Geshas in the Imperial Phoenix’s uniform appeared behind Lu Sheng as they joked, “Where’s the Imperial Phoenix? I’ve been in the Imperial Phoenix for such a long time, yet this is my first time seeing the great boss in person . ”

What made the Imperial Phoenix bulge his eyes was that the dozen Geshas he had placed in ambush just now had all abandoned their positions to this spot .

However, they were not standing with him, but opposite him…

Other Geshas started showing up . There were Geshas from the Star Sand, Earth Star Pillar, and the Imperial Phoenix .

Radiance from several Divine Energy Embellishments shone with a variety of brilliant colors . However, the people from the Imperial Phoenix and Zhou Quanwu could not find it in themselves to relax .

This was because more than 90% of Geshas here were looking at them with eye full of ill intent .

They formed a huge encirclement around the three leaders .

Lu Sheng and Du Xia were standing outside the encirclement .

“Who’s willing to be the new third core?” Lu Sheng did not look at the sour expressions of the Imperial Phoenix or the other leaders . Instead, he gazed at the huge God Clock in the distance .

“It’s my honor to die for you, Master!” almost everyone in the crowd responded in loud voices .

Their voices traveled several hundred meters . Everyone’s face was filled apathetic and passionate expressions .

The three leaders felt chills in their hearts . They clenched their fists .

“I don’t need so many . ” Lu Sheng did not find anything wrong with this .

These Geshas were powerful, but they had a fatal flaw . Their minds were too weak .

Only the witch Geshas managed to escape his hypnotic control . Facing the Hundred Flower Immortal and Frost Moon Tyrant, he merely used other methods to coerce them into attacking Zhou Quanwu .

“Take care of them first . ” Lu Sheng pointed at the three leaders .

“Run!” The Star Sand God Child turned around and leapt . He nearly vanished into thin air .

He was the fastest among the witch Geshas . When he erupted with his speed, even the Hundred Flower Immortal and the others could not react .

He almost succeeded in fleeing .

“Pcchht!”

The God Child moved quickly and appeared behind Lu Sheng in the blink of an eye . He wielded a pure white knife in his hand, and his face was full of ill intent and fierceness . He brought the blade on the back of Lu Sheng’s neck .

All his Divine Energy Embellishment was concentrated onto the blade . Even the thickest armor in the world could not block this slash . There was nothing in the world he could not cut .

The blade was closing in . It penetrated Lu Sheng’s clothes and pressed against his skin . He could already feel the feedback from the blade as if it had encountered something hard .

All he needed was another instant, an instant…

“Boom!”

A layer of hazy white radiance flashed on the surface of Lu Sheng’s skin .

The God Child’s body shook, while the blade in his hand shattered . He could feel a surge of indescribably intense force travelling up his blade .

“Bam!”

There was a crisp sound .

The Star Sand God Child pressed his own chest with incredulity . A gaping hole the size of a human head was fuming with white smoke .

Lu Sheng’s arm had penetrated his body . Lu Sheng’s arm was like a fork as he hung there .

“Hiss…”

Lu Sheng slowly withdrew his arm and looked calmly at the other two .

He spread out his right hand slowly . Oval, translucent white clusters of light hovered above his fingers .

The light clusters were as shiny as gemstones and crystals . They were magnificent to look at .

Inner Chain Qi . The formidable power which Lu Sheng had had no idea how to use in the beginning was what he used to kill the God Child just now . It had terrifying counterattacking powers .

The Inner Chain Qi had an extremely terrifying and unyielding attribute . This inner Qi had condensed all his strength onto 10 points, which Lu Sheng controlled with his 10 fingers .

The light clusters on each of his fingers had a terrible might, each equivalent to half of Lu Sheng’s full strength .

There were 10 light clusters . If he launched them all, it would be him instantly exploding with five times his full strength .

With this, the terrifying properties of Inner Chain Qi were evident .

Only Lu Sheng with his Limit Indestructible Body could manage such an inner Qi .

“I… There’s no way I’d… die here…” The Star Sand God Child staggered backward and fell to his knees with a thump .

He wanted to plug the bleeding hole on his chest with his hands . However, the hole was too wide . He could not even cover it with his hands .

Du Xia loosened her palm which she had readied for an attack . She looked up and stared blankly at Lu Sheng . At that instant, she had been sure that her brother would have died . She’d even prepared to unleash her Divine Energy Embellishment to block the blade .

However, the result was that the God Child died .

Lu Sheng brought along and walked past the God Child .

“What a pity . You guys are only being controlled like puppets that are harvested once every five years . You can’t see hope or future . You might even personally destroy your past .

“Zhou Quanwu… I can understand why you want to break free from the future . In the beginning, I didn’t plan to meddle in your affairs . However, you’ve dragged Little Xia into this, and you killed Little Qiu . So…”

“Big Brother…” Lu Sheng was not done talking yet when he was interrupted by a young and shy boy’s voice .

A Gesha who stood behind the Imperial Phoenix stepped forward and pulled his hat away . A familiar face was revealed . It was Du Qiu who was supposed to be dead!

Lu Sheng was stunned .

“I didn’t die . Sister Qu has made the best arrangements for me . She merely wanted to… trick Big Sister into throwing all her fetters away,” Du Qiu spoke in his tart voice . “As for the assassins, they were sent out by other forces . ”

Lu Sheng fell silent . He looked at Zhou Quanwu who pursed her lips .

“Smack!”

Lu Sheng slapped Zhou Quanwu heavily with lightning speed . She reeled and dropped to the ground . She skidded for more than 10 meters and spat out another mouthful of blood .

“I’ll get back to this . ” Lu Sheng removed his gaze from Zhou Quanwu and diverted it toward the huge God Clock in the distance .

Since Little Qiu was not dead, all his grudges dispersed like smoke in the wind .

Next, it was time for his actual objective for coming here . It was time for official business .

The real problem had just begun .
