Chapter 485: Commencing (IV)
The Liu youngster looked at him coldly. Idiot! Do you think I’d really believe you? He about-faced and rushed Qi Gang. Coordinating his efforts with the one from Near River’s Director General Office, they jointly beat back Qi Gang.
Off in the distance, the busy Hou Xiaochen wordlessly registered the scene. Damn, he’s trash!
Hu Qingfeng was trash among trash. He couldn’t lie or be an undercover agent. Something must have gone wrong somewhere and he’d played right into the other side’s hands. He hadn’t even been on guard against them and was so arrogant that he felt they were absolutely convinced by his act!
Wasn’t this nice, he was sent flying in the blink of an eye! Even Qi Gang teetered on disaster now. If Hu Qingfeng wasn’t a Nova... Hou Xiaochen thought that he wouldn’t be bothered to look twice at the man.
......
Within the city.
Li Hao was likewise at a loss. Was Hu Qingfeng the weakest Nova that he’d ever met? I feel like I can beat him right after melding my three auras together!
“Li Hao, Earthturner Sword, Southern Fist, let’s make this quick!” Hou Xiaochen called out. “I don’t have any other plans in mind. I’m not in a condition to unseal too much as my situation is worse off than yours...”
His Broken Will Spear was too strong, the spear intent continuously suppressed his body to the point where he coughed all day. He was in much worse shape compared to Earthturner Sword and the others. This also indicated that he might be stronger when he unsealed himself. But in regular fighting, he found it difficult to kill the martial master converted Nova Green Moon.
Li Hao still wasn’t very comfortable with Director Hou, but Hong Yitang transmitted at this time, “Let’s make our move as well! At the very least, we’re confident of retreating back into the city. That guy hasn’t recovered from his fight with me yet.”
The young man considered possible courses of action4, then broke through the air without another word! Although he wanted to wait longer, he would take action because Hong Yitang had said so. There were two Gold Armors inside the city, Hou Xiaochen and the others wouldn’t be able to do anything against them.
Li Hao threw himself at the Near River general; the latter was a mid Nova. While there’d been elements of surprise on his side when Li Hao killed Xu Feng, this general was his best training partner at the moment!
His sword cut through the air!
Sword light glittered and four auras melded together. Qi Gang had been doggedly hanging on as he faced two people—the scene brightened in front of his eyes and sword light slashed across the void!
He Yong smashed his fist at the Yama origin weapon, shaking the weapon that’d trapped Kong Jie. Hong Yitang was even more direct and pierced through heaven and earth with his sword. He killed the Celestial elder battling Golden Spear with one strike!
Golden Spear stared dumbly at him, Hong Yitang looked calmly back. “Think on it, your fighting is growing ever more disorganized. Silver Spear and Bronze Spear are dead out of the Three Spears, you’re the only one left. And yet, you don’t seem to have made the Three Spears known throughout the world!”
Golden Spear lowered his head, appearing quite helpless and agitated. He looked to the four corners and suddenly felt a mental breakdown coming on.
The Two Fists of North and South, Seven Swords of Silver Moon, Four Blade Kings, Silver Moon’s Three Spears...
The others all had representative characters, but the Three Spears seem to have truly declined!
Li Hao was in his element as he stabbed again and again. The injured Qi Gang breathed out with relief and ran off to challenge the Liu youngster, leaving the general to Li Hao!
The young man thought of nothing else other than to practice his sword! Sword qi raced through the area, the Five Styles erupted, he struck with sword, fist, and foot... It appeared a bit of a muddled mess at first, but the various methods gradually found harmony with each other and melded together.
He hadn’t had a chance to experience the fusion of four auras when he killed Xu Feng. Today, he relished it firsthand.
As the three joined the battlefield, the three great organizations knew that victory was slipping through their fingers! The martial masters of Silver Moon were too strong!
Green Peacock roared and let loose with her blood qi amid a rumble. Her strength increased by thirty percent, but her face was pale. “Red Moon will not forgive you if we die here!”
Did she speak of Ying Hongyue or Red Moon? Hou Xiaochen knew that she actually spoke of Ying Hongyue. He coughed gently with a smile. “It’ll have to wait if Ying Hongyue won’t forgive me. Who knows, maybe it’s me who won’t forgive him!”
BOOM!
A spear erupted with radiant light sparks as it cut through the void. A phoenix ripped through everything and bore down on Green Moon!
“Isn’t it normal for a peacock to die in a phoenix’s hand?” Hou Xiaochen laughed softly as a massive phoenix erupted with domineering mind intent. It felt that the firmament was torn asunder as it pierced through everything!
Green Moon visibly wilted and she looked at Hou Xiaochen with some dejection. “Why... haven’t any of you... declined?”
Why had Silver Moon’s martial masters retained such formidable battle strength? She’d left with Ying Hongyue all those years ago because martial masters had begun to taper off. When the supernatural rose, she chose that and relinquished the path of martial masters.
“Because... Ying Hongyue hasn’t given up either!” Hou Xiaochen grinned. “He’s a martial master too, isn’t he? Silver Moon martial masters have dominated the land for many years and will not go away so easily. You... are a bit of a fool!”
Boom!
Green Moon exploded into pieces. Hou Xiaochen sighed, “There is one less Silver Moon martial master in the world now!”
But Green Peacock had long lost her martial master heart, so it wasn’t a pity that she was dead. She was just a fake martial master!
Blue Moon was beside himself and utterly despairing. There was no hint of his former ease to be found when he looked at Hou Xiaochen. Violet Moon was likewise lost. Her strength wasn’t even worth mentioning at this point. If Green Moon was dead, so were they.
Hou Xiaochen looked at the two with another sigh. “You’re the descendants of old friends and I didn’t want to bully you. What a pity that I’m about to leave Silver Moon and cannot leave you to trouble the province. You should go with her!”
Boom!
The spear pierced through heaven and earth again. The look in Blue Moon’s dejected eyes immediately dimmed. He toppled over, but his mind had long been torn to pieces. Violet Moon looked around in confusion—how was she still alive?
“I’ll save you for Little Yu and Li Hao!”
One of them was her mother’s friend and the other’s teacher was being chased by her mother. Hou Xiaochen simply injured her gravely, but didn’t kill her. He smiled, vanished, and reappeared in the Yama section of the battlefield!
These people had no hope when a group of premier Silver Moon martial masters joined hands! Novas dropped like leaves. Li Hao roared with fury and ignited the Incantation of the Blade of Blood, cleaving the other into two with mighty effort!
He then threw himself into the outer city without another look back, leaving everyone staring. Hou Xiaochen laughed after a moment. The kid held a very deep misunderstanding of him!
Li Hao panted, then shouted, “Chief, stop running around!”
Liu Long was still sprinting with the wandering cultivators, he might be killed by accident!
Li Hao looked in another direction after he yelled. The quiet Panther suddenly popped up in a strange fashion. It clawed outward with nine layers of force!
Bam!
Chi Ming was busy evading Yu Luocha when he gaped at the claws that suddenly appeared in front of his chest...
He turned his head and saw the back dog vanish with his storage ring and black longsword. Yu Luocha jerked with shock as well and looked at the fleeing dog. She could barely recover from her surprise!
Although she’d suppressed Chi Ming, the man could still fight. In the end, he was ambushed by a dog!
Li Hao’s jaw dropped—that was a mid Nova! Panth had killed him with one swipe! That shouldn’t have happened even with Yu Luocha present!
Panther ran as fast as the wind. It shot through the entire battlefield and collected some battle spoils that their owner hadn’t had a chance to collect. It quickly reached Li Hao and threw everything at the young man’s feet. The dog looked up with expectation and anticipation. Was this enough for some sword energy?
It seemed to know that Li Hao was very weak, so it’d seized a lot of storage rings. It knew that there was good stuff inside that could feed the sword!
Li Hao stared in a daze. Holy shit! The dog’s pretty good! Panth is stronger than I imagined! It clawed Chi Ming to death with one swipe—it definitely has the strength of a mid Nova! How is that possible?!
When he killed the Nova, he had to utilize the Incantation of the Blade of Blood! But the dog... Li Hao sighed, suddenly doubting his own strength.
