Chapter 118: The crazy Immortal!
Bomb!
When the two sides clashed under the illustration of the Sword Sage Spirit's kingdom, a resounding reverberate rang out, spreading to the city's boundary, deafening everyone with an inadequate cultivation base.
Before they could recover, shockwaves bursts out from the point of impact, and violent winds rocked those present in the tournament site.
If it weren't because the elders of various sects and the array masters hired by City Lord Xie Yong acted immediately to save the mortals and their disciples, the winds would've blown them away.
"Roar!"
"Hahaha!"
Xie Yang and the dragon both refused to take a step back, and the clash of their sword energies in mid-air intensified to an unprecedented level.
The clanking of metals rang in the ears of many as the sword energy of the dragon pushed back the sword energy of the young man.
"I'm not giving up after coming this far." Xie Yang smiled and made a hand sign with one hand, causing a talisman to rush out of the pouch that the Steward had given him and infuse with his sword energy, amplifying its might so much that it pushed back the dragon's sword energy.
Illusory cracks appeared around them.
Xie Yang frowned. 'My talisman is running out of its might, and I am running low on spiritual energy. If this continues, I will lose.'
The sky almost collapsed when the shockwaves suddenly vanished, the clanking of metals disappeared, and absolute silence replaced the noise mortal realm!
Din!
The moment of silence waned as soon as it came, and intense rays of lights surged out of the point of impact.
Most onlookers closed shut their eyes as they felt them stabbing their eyes.
In the face of the blinding rays, Song Ru, too, found it hard to keep his eyes open, and he slowly lowered his eyelids.
A part of Xie Yang's divine sense turned from the dragon and peered down, only to transmit the image of Song Ru closing his eyes into Xie Yang's kind.
"This is my chance to win this match!" Xie Yang thought.
As soon as Song Ru closed his bleeding eyes, Xie Yang retreated at the top of his speed.
At the same time, the spiritual energy protecting his skin surged into the golden runic lines of his flying moonlight sword left his hand, activating its ability to fly.
Under Xie Yang's command, the moonlight sword left his hand, took flight, and whisked down towards Song Ru's head.
Xie Yang was defenseless against the sword energy of the dragon, and a hundred slash wounds instantly opened on his skin, blood dying his flesh red.
Roar!
The dragon chased Xie Yang, but just as it opened its mouth to eat him, Xie Yang's sword reached Song Ru.
Song Ru's eyes were closed. But the sixth sense at the back of his neck tingled. Song Ru perceived the danger approaching him and snapped open his eyes, only for a blinding glint to fill his field of vision!
Song Ru also instantly disappeared from his spot as the live-saving method forced him out of the arena. But this also created a disturbance in the spiritual energy he was channeling into the dragon to keep it intact, causing his connection with the spirit realm to disappear and his clan's signature move to come to an instant end.
The dragon whose green, yellow, and blue sword-like teeth were an inch away from Xie Yang vanished. The illusion of another realm in the sky faded away.
The blinding lights dissipated, and the onlookers saw Xie Yang falling from the sky and Song Ru outside the stage!
Xie Yang had defeated Song Ru. When the crowd saw that Xie Yang had overcome all adversaries and won against the son of the spirit weaving clan's patriarch, their jaw dropped. The close followers of Xie Yong trembled in excitement. Xie Yang won this match somehow, attracting the surprise cheer of the crowd.
Xie Yong and Xie Ye were about to release their spiritual energy to slow Xie Yang's fall, but someone was faster than them. It was surprisingly Lin Hua who jumped out of the raised platform to save her husband. Blue waves materialized under her feet, carrying her to Xie Yang, who was plunging down the air like a cold corpse.
She embraced his bloody body.
They gently landed in the center of the stage, Xie Yang resting in her lap and acting weak.
'I am hurt but fully capable of standing up. But If I don't act weak now, I won't get to eat my wife's tofu. Better act like a dead fish than a brave man! It's time to force some dog food down the throat of others.' Xie Yang acted like a dead dog and pressed his entire weight on her.
"You're going to be fine after I feed you these pills." While saying this, Lin Hua took out the rank two healing pills she got yesterday from the restaurant owner. Yesterday, many well-wishers had gifted her cultivation resources. All of them were hers, but she didn't mind sharing them with her husband. He meant the most for her.
"Cough!" Xie Yang coughed out a mouthful of blood, which splashed on her white clothes.
"Sorry." Xie Yang apologized to Lin Hua with a guilty expression on his face.
"Silly husband, just eat this and become fine soon." Lin Hua fed him the rank-2 pill under the widening eyes of the crowd!
'Does she not realize the value of the pill?!'
"'His injuries aren't severe. They are only skin wounds. A single rank four healing pills is enough to heal him!"
"She wasted her precious life-saving pill on him.' If I were her, I would've kept it for myself!"
"That's why you can never get a man like my lord, Xie Yang."
"My lord went against the societal rules and promoted his concubine to his main wife, and she lived up to his expectations by offering her life-saving pill to him! Their love is too deep!"
"Ah! I'm feeling jealous of these youngsters!"
While this person here and that person there drank vinegar, Xie Yang swallowed the pill. It went down his throat in the form of healing mist, which coursed throughout his body. In an instant, his internal bleeding stopped, the wounds of his flesh closed, the scars on his skin vanished, leaving him as handsome as before.
"Thank you." Xie Yang glanced at her and tapped the tip of her nicely arched nose.
Lin Hua replied, "You've done so much for me. This little is nothing before that."
"How are you so cute!" Xie Yang pinched her cheeks.
The filial wife helped her husband back to his feet.
He leaned on her as if he was dead tired. But in actuality, she smelled nice, and he wanted just to bury his nose in the crook of her neck!
Unaware of her husband's ill intention, Lin Hua supported him worriedly. She thought that the healing pill must've only elevated his pain but not relieved his tiredness and stress!
"How did he win?"
"I missed everything that happened at the end."
"Me too."
"The dragon's sword energy was overpowering him. How did he turn the tides?"
"He must've cheated!"
It only needs a single push to throw someone down the stairs. After someone in the crowd exclaimed that Xie Yang had cheated, everyone started talking about it, and some people directly began splashing dirty water on him! They didn't have any proof, but they were intent on disgracing Xie Yang!
"Master, some people don't believe that Young Master won against Song Ru without breaking a single rule. What should we do with them?" Xie Ye questioned.
Xie Yong coldly laughed and said, "Slap their faces hard with facts!"
"Play the replay!" Xie Ye commanded his subordinates to activate the event recording rune.
A screen opened up in the sky, showing what happened moments ago. It turned out that Xie Yang won against Song Ru by abandoning defense and putting his life at risk. Xie Yang was able to take advantage of the silver of opportunity Song Ru presented to him by closing his eyes, firstly because of his high level of awareness and reaction, and secondly because he had experienced life and
death many times, and he was not afraid of taking life-threatening risks.
The difference between Song Ru, who began cultivating in his mother's womb and had mastered his clans signature technique, which only his father could use, and Xie Yang, who was once an actual immortal, was too big!
Lin Hua pinched his waist, and Xie Yang cried out in pain.
"Why did you do that for? Is your life so cheap that you can throw it away as you like? Did you even think how devastated father-in-law and I would feel if something happens to you?"
Lin Hua huffed at him, her eyes turning red.
"Promise you won't ever do that again!"
"Okay, okay, I promise, you just didn't cry, Ah!" Xie Yang hurried to please his wife as he couldn't afford to see tears of sadness in her eyes.
He only liked to make her cry out of her pleasure while panting beneath him!
Since everyone realized that Xie Yang won against Song Ru without using any underhanded means, many people blushed in shame. They were accusing an innocent man of various crimes. How wrong they were! The face of Doctor Zhang and the shady men beside him turned black!
Song Ru jumped on stage as if he was unwilling to accept defeat and sprinted towards Xie Yang and Lin Hua.
'What is he trying to do?'
'Sneak an attack on them?'
After approaching them, Song Ru dropped to his knees, kneeling before Xie Yang, "Please allow me to worship you as my master!"
A cold wild breezed through the people in the stands. His exclamation shocked everyone so much that their eyes turned round with surprise and envy!
