Chapter 104: Trump Card!
“First, you must sacrifice the two disciples that Feng Xue protects.”
“Second, you have to also ingest the insect and recognize His Highness as your master”
“If you do this, His Highness promises to not harm you or your daughter!”
“What?? You Dare?” Feng Tianlong roared in anger with wide eyes filled with fury as he began to conjure another huge attack.
Ashen looked at his reaction as he sighed: “Sigh, looks like he didn’t accept my conditions.”
“Why do you want to force me to do villainous deeds despite my kind nature?”
He whispered with a helpless smile while shaking his head before snapping his fingers.
Snap!
“AAAAAAAAAaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”
A loud scream of a female began resounding in the arena.
It was Feng Xue who fell to her knees while grabbing her head in pain.
Her scream and expression indicated the excruciating pain that she was feeling.
“Xue Er!” Feng Tianlong, seeing her daughter writhing in pain, screamed in horror.
He stopped the attack that he was preparing as a terrified and worried expression replaced his previous wrathful expression.
The screams, however, didn’t stop.
It appeared as if the pain she was suffering was increasing in intensity every second.
“Stop it! Let my daughter go, you demons!”
Feng Tianlong cried out in agony over his daughter’s pain.
“Senior Feng, If you want your daughter’s agony to stop, just agree to his highness’ conditions, There is no other way.” Chen Lao advised.
Feng Tianlong hesitated, however, his daughter’s screams made all of the resistance that he had to vanish.
After losing his wife, Feng Xue was the only family he had.
He could never imagine losing her.
Without her, there would be no one to live for.
“A-Alright, I agree to all your conditions. Just leave her!”
Feng Tianlong announced his agreement and the moment he did, Feng Xue’s screams stopped.
Noticing this, a relieved expression revealed itself on his face.
“Junior Chen, tell His Highness to give me the insect, I am ready to ingest it and you can also kill the disciples. Just let Feng Xue leave.”
Though Feng Tianlong was being selfish here, but for him, Feng Xue was the only one who mattered. He had to protect her.
He had never seen Feng Xue in even a small amount of pain, so how was he supposed to see his daughter suffer pain just because he was stubborn?
Between a life without his daughter and a life with his daughter, he would always choose the latter no matter if his freedom was stripped away.
Chen Lao went to fetch the insect while the Thunder Peak sect leader and others looked at Ashen to ask for his approval to kill Feng Xue’s disciples.
Ashen had no reason to stretch this event so he simply nodded, permitting them to proceed.
“Feng Xue, get aside. Now, even your father has allowed us to kill those two disciples. There is no meaning in resisting anymore!” Shadow Veil Sect Leader persuaded.
“Get lost!” Feng Xue wasn’t one to be persuaded so easily.
She persisted despite the lingering pain from her previous suffering.
“There is no need to reason with her. Let’s just kill them!”
Thunder Peak Sect Leader suggested before preparing to strike.
At this moment, a thunderous voice came crashing down: “Stop!”
Everyone looked above to see who it was this time before they witnessed Feng Tianlong having difficulty floating in the air.
The sky split apart and a man with white hair and beard came descending before stopping beside Feng Tianlong.
Feng Tianlong looked at him before recognizing him right away:
“Senior H-Han Wuji? This pressure… have you finally advanced to the emperor realm?”
“Yes junior Feng, This old man was lucky enough to advance some days earlier, but I hadn’t expected to see this sorry sight of you!”
Feng Tianlong’s expression became somber before he explained the situation to him.
Meanwhile, Ashen had a worried expression as he gestured to Chen Lao.
Chen Lao nodded before going to the corner of the arena and channeling his qi into a pillar.
“Everyone, I order you to go and channel your qi into the white pillars in the corners of the arena!” Ashen ordered, his voice loud enough to be heard by the sect leaders.
Hearing his command, all the sect leaders did as he instructed except Feng Xue and she soon suffered for it.
She screamed again in pain before getting convinced by Peak Master Xia to obey Ashen for now.
Feng Xue agreed with her as she also left to channel qi into the pillars despite her unwillingness.
Meanwhile, Ashen commanded one of his subordinates to go and capture Han Yujin.
His subordinate obeyed as he vanished and appeared beside Han Yujin before capturing him.
His subordinate brought him in front of Ashen.
Han Yujin couldn’t help but taunt him in anger after what he had gone through.
“Ashen, Today’s your end. My Grandfather won’t let you go if you kill me and if you don’t kill me, he will come and rescue me before giving you a dog’s death. Either way, you are going to die, hahaha!”
Ashen knew about Yujin’s mysterious grandfather after hearing about him from Shiyue and Veli.
They told him that he was accepted into the sect due to his grandfather’s acquaintance with the Sect ancestor.
He just didn’t know that he would be an emperor realm expert.
The barrier he had prepared could only block cultivators who were below the emperor realm.
He knew that this barrier wouldn’t last long if Han Yujin’s Grandfather attacked with full force.
He always had the option to escape from here, but that would make all his efforts go to waste and Han Yujin will be able to escape here.
He had his last trump card that he had prepared but he didn’t want to use it.
However, An emperor realm expert could only be contained by another emperor realm expert.
And so without any other option, he decided to use that trump card.
He took out a golden teleportation formation token before channeling qi into it.
This token was used for the activation of the teleportation formation that connected this arena to another place.
He had prepared this formation for the unlikely appearance of an Emperor realm expert.
However, this formation wasn’t for him to escape, but instead, for someone else to come here.
After Activating the token, he smiled at Han Yujin before asking with a smirk:
“Do you think only you have a powerful family?”
