Chapter 39 The Super Masters
The Enchantress did know the European woman in front of her. Apart from her, there were many others knowing the woman as well.
In Dark World, this woman was very famous and was even more famous than The Enchantress.
She was one of the 12 Super Masters of the Samsara Palace, and her codename was Horsewoman.
She was a true expert at the Peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm and was well-known for her defensive and protecting ability among the Masters. With her standing in The Enchantress’s way, The Enchantress encountered a combat head-on-head and had to break through Horsewoman’s blockade and entanglement.
Even The Enchantress herself was not confident to do that.
“Why do we have to start a war?”
Horsewoman smiled and asked in a soft voice.
The Enchantress was absent-minded for a second but immediately realized there was something wrong. She asked with a frown, “What did you mean?”
It was so weird that Horsewoman had appeared at such a time. Normally, even if the Samsara Palace wanted Wang Yuetong to die, there was no need for them to ask a famous Super Master to do such a thing. The best way for them would be sending some Men of Sacrifice to act in secret, and even if they failed, they did not need to worry about being exposed.
Moreover, if the Samsara Palace wanted to provoke the Wang family of Beihai, they would not choose to start with Wang Yuetong. Since one of their Super Masters was already here, they could directly aim at the heir of the Wang family, Wang Shengxiao.
Therefore, Horsewoman’s appearance was weird in all ways.
The Enchantress furrowed her eyebrows hard.
She’d like to believe that the Samsara Palace had nothing to do with those matters. Otherwise, if Horsewoman really came there to kill Wang Yuetong, whatever the result was, the Wang family of Beihai would fight back at once, which would take the Dark World into a great conflict and turn the world upside down.
The Samsara Palace was a very special organization in the Dark World. No one knew when it was established, only that it was 10 years ago that the 12 Super Masters started acting all as they pleased, and the trace of their actions could be found even earlier than that. About five or six years ago, the 12 Super Masters gathered together and made the palace the top force in the Dark World.
The mysterious Palace Leader, who had shown up only once several years ago, was absolutely an expert in the Invincible Realm; otherwise, he would not have been able to lead so many Super Masters at the Peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm. So far, the palace had the most experts at the Peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm among all the forces in Dark World. Except for the exposed Super Masters, people knew nothing else about the palace.
Once the Wang family of Beihai started a war with such a mysterious force, the intelligence the family could get would be quite limited, and the result of the war would remain uncertain to them. For the family, no matter they won or lost, it would not be a good thing.
“Nothing.”
Horsewoman shook her head and continued, “You have been on your guard against me as soon as you saw me today, and you even haven’t noticed the people who really followed Wang Yuetong. I’m so disappointed in you. Why are you so alert to me?”
“If you really didn’t follow Yuetong, you would not have shown up here, and I wouldn’t have taken precautions against you either.” The Enchantress said with a cold smile.
She looked more gentle compared to a moment ago when she was full of killing intent.
She hurriedly cast a glance at Wang Yuetong, who was fighting in the battlefield.
Tide of Sword was formed, so, Wang Yuetong could handle her enemies on her own in a short time.
The Enchantress felt a little bit relieved after seeing this and focused all her attention on Horsewoman.
To some extent, the Wang family of Beihai and Samsara Palace did have some relationship. If Horsewoman was not here to kill Wang Yuetong, it was possible that she wanted to cooperate with them.
“Why are you also tracking Wang Yuetong?”
Horsewoman’s voice was so gentle that it felt out of place with her outgoing and gorgeous appearance.
Of course, The Enchantress would not be deceived by the appereance. She explained in a cold tone. “I’m not tracking her; I’m protecting her. I’m one of the Wang family of Beihai. Is there anything wrong with me protecting our princess?”
“I’m also providing a little of protection.”
Horsewoman threw away the gun in her hand and said in a icy tone.
She turned her back to The Enchantress as if she was not afraid of any sneak attack at all. She turned her gaze to the battlefield, and different from The Enchantress, who was watching Wang Yuetong, Horsewoman was looking at Li Tianlan.
The Enchantress was confused for a while, but soon, she understood what the words meant. “Are you protecting Li Tianlan?”
She observed the gun on the ground dropped by Horsewoman and found some black ashes near the gun. Looking at all parts together, she recognized the ashes were in the shape of a human figure. Without a doubt, the ashes were the remaining of the person who had triggered the gun.
The Enchantress was less suspicious about Horsewoman’s appearance. She took a deep breath and said in a soft voice, “I never thought that Li Tianlan had a relationship with your palace. He is indeed a man of so many faces.”
“I’m just under my boss’s order.”
Horsewoman answered in a calm tone.
“Qin Weibai? What’s the relationship between Li Tianlan and Qin Weibai?”
The Enchantress asked subconsciously. Whether to the Samsara Palace or the Wang family of Beihai, Qin Weibai was a special person.
The mysterious Palace Leader had shown up only once in recent years in order to kill an expert at the Peak of the Thunder-shocking Realm in England and saved a girl from the devil. The girl came from the Zhongzhou State, knew nothing about Martial Arts, and was just a little girl at that time.
After that, the Palace Leader made the girl his younger sister, and the girl had risen up quickly in the palace, during which period, the 12 Super Masters of the palace came into being. According to various intelligence, the girl still knew nothing about the Martial Arts but had become second only to the Palace Leader.
And that girl was named Qin Weibai.
From how Horsewoman addressed her, people could know the difference between the positions of Qin Weibai and the Super Masters of the palace.
Many big shots in the Dark World suspected that Qin Weibai was a military counselor among the 12 Masters. A military counselor did not need to master Martial Arts and only needed to be able to give advice and suggestions.
Qin Weibai was also said to be ranked first among the 12 Super Masters, the person less mysterious only than the Saint of the Palace Leader.
Some people even evilly thought that the Palace Leader slobbered on Qin Weibai, and for this reason, he empowered her.
However, those gossips were forbidden in the Wang family of Beihai.
It was all because of Wang Xiaoyao.
Wang Xiaoyao was so besotted with Qin Weibai that he almost lost his mind in loving her. During the past years, no matter how coldly Qin Weibai treated him, he never lost his patience or stopped pursuing her.
For her, he had solved many problems which Qin Weibai or the Samsara Palace had trouble having their hands in and obliterated those who drooled around her without hesitation. Doing those things had caused him many troubles.
Wang Tianzong had persuaded him to give up, but it did not work.
The other members of the Wang family of Beihai had persuaded him as well, and it did not work either.
The Enchantress had been in Huating all years around, so, she had heard something about Wang Xiaoyao pursuing Qin Weibai. It was said that Wang Xiaoyao and Qin Weibai had only one lunch together in the past four years, duing which they talked about business only.
Even so, Wang Xiaoyao did not change his mind, but, it was a pity that Qin Weibai had treated his affection as trash.
Therefore, The Enchantress was filled with a complex feeling when she heard that Qin Weibai had ordered Horsewoman to protect Li Tianlan. She thought Qin Weibai was unworthy of Wang Xiaoyao’s love.
Even though Horsewoman was of a lower position than Qin Weibai, as a Super Master of the palace, she might be okay with protecting Qin Weibai, but she might not feel okay to protect Li Tianlan. However, from this, people could tell how important Li Tianlan was to Qin Weibai.
Thinking all this left the Enchantress in a headache. She knew herself that she would not receive any answer of her question from Horsewoman, so, she just said flatly, “Since we have the same intention, why haven’t you made your action yet?”
She was going to rush into the battlefield as she spoke.
Horsewoman suddenly stretched out her hands, and a bright lighting flickered in them. The lighting was small, but, as soon as it appeared, the air nearby was twisted.
The lighting blocked The Enchantress’s way.
Horsewoman said in a deadpan, “You can’t go there.”
“What do you mean?”
The Enchantress’s eyes suddenly turned cold.
“Don’t you think having Li Tianlan save the beauty Wang Yuetong is a good thing? I know the unique skills of your family. They are perfect but also full of flaws. During the past hundreds of years, the only thing that you’ve pursued is the extreme explosive force. Exerting all your combat strength without restraint in the shortest time is your family’s belief in Martial Arts.
“The skill Wang Yuetong is displaying is named Tide of Sword. How long can she hold on under the attacks from a dozen experts? When the tide of her sword fall, she will be in danger. By then, we can watch Li Tianlan’s performance. Isn’t that better?”
Horsewoman chuckled and uttered what was on her mind.
“Li Tianlan is in the Qi-controlling Realm, but the attackers of Yuetong are all the experts near and even at the Peak of the Ice-condensing Realm, and that young man and woman are probably in the Fire-flaming Realm. How could you expect Li Tianlan to save Yuetong?”
The Enchantress questioned in a cold tone.
“In any case, I can protect them from being killed. There is no harm to have a try.”
Horsewoman wore a smile.
The corner of The Enchantress’s mouth twitched. Horsewoman was good at defending and protecting. With her power, she indeed could protect Wang Yuetong and Li Tianlan from being killed, but, The Enchantress still could not see it necessary to let Li Tianlan save Wang Yuetong.
There was something wrong between Wang Yuetong and Li Tianlan, and many people had sensed it at the end of the maneuver. If Li Tianlan really successfully saved Wang Yuetong this time, what would Wang Yuetong think about this?
If they were tangled up somehow, and Qin Weibai and Wang Xiaoyao, the relationship between the four would be too complicated. The Enchantress could not watch this happen.
The Enchantress jumped forward to the lighting and said in a calm tone, “Go away!”
“You can’t go through me.”
Horsewoman replied in a stubborn tone without any smile on her beautiful face.
“Both you and I have our own missions, so, don’t play with fire.”
“I don’t mind playing with fire.”
“So, you want to fight to death with me?”
The Enchantress’s eyes turned even sharper. They were the most sexy and charming part of her, but now, there was desperate determination in them.
Horsewoman took a careful look at her and suddenly said with a smile, “You can make your moves to me, but, it won’t be a battle of life and death, because I’m not the only one here; our military counselor is near here as well.”
The Enchantress’s expression changed suddenly.
The military counselor was also one of the 12 Super Masters of the Samsara Palace.
This person was so mysterious that some people thought it was Qin Weibai. If the military counselor was really here, the rumor about Qin Weibai would be totally bullshit.
A military counselor who could show up on this battlefield must know some Martial Arts. This person’s combat strength might be as strong as Horsewoman’s.
How wayward could Qin Weibai be to let two of the 12 Super Masters of the Samsara Palace protect Li Tianlan together?
Flaming Fire, who had been with Qin Weibai all the time, must be here as well.
Therefore, there were three Super Masters of the Samsara Palace in Zhongzhou State at this time, which showed that Qin Weibai really took good care of Li Tianlan. As for the Palace Leader, it seemed that he was concerned about his younger sister so much as well.
“Are you threatening me?”
The Enchantress’s plump breast moved gently as she took a deep breath. She continued with a cold smile, “Don’t forget that this is the Zhongzhou State. The Samsara Palace is nothing in this state. Do you really think that your Palace Leader is invincible around the world and can escape the Human Emperor if Yuetong or I get injured today?”
Horsewoman’s smile disappeared slowly and her eyes turned cold. She glanced at The Enchantress and said indifferently, “If our Palace Leader really come to Zhongzhou State, it’s impossible that he has borrowed a powerful weapon from others.”
“I know the dirty business between your palace and the Academics of the past several years, but, Sigh City isn’t the Academics’ stooge. Though Situ Cangyue is in charge of the weapon Setting Sun, the weapon is relevant to the national safety. Do you really think that she will lend the Setting Sun to your Palace Leader? In your dreams!”
The Enchantress’s voice became even more chilling.
Horsewoman did not answer and only watched the battle closely.
Suddenly, Wang Yuetong’s scream sounded from the battlefield.
“Senior Brother, watch out!”
The Enchantress’s expression changed rapidly and she was surrounded by lighting again.
Under the besiege of so many enemies, Wang Yuetong exploded the sword momentum of her swordsmanship before it reached its peak.
The Sword Energy was waving.
It overwhelmed the battlefield in no time.
However, when the tide faded away, Wang Yuetong would be in danger.
Li Tianlan approached the battlefield from the other side. Behind him, the young woman was less than two meters away from him.
It was a close call!
Horsewoman and The Enchantress rushed forward almost at the same time, but soon they stopped simultaneously in shock.
Li Tianlan, who was about to suffer a fatal attack, suddenly disappeared before their eyes. When he appeared again, he had made it beside Wang Yuetong.
The light of fire brightened the sky, and sword radiance dazzled people’s eyes.
The Sword Essence exploded, broken ice was scattered. The battlefield was in a mess. However, in such a blurred scene, people could see a storm brewing and a burning sun rising.
No one could see Li Tianlan’s sword clearly, but, Horsewoman and The Enchantress could feel an extremely crazy and enormous Sword Essence swirl around the battlefield. The sword light shot up high into the sky, and it looked as if the sky was tore apart.
At this moment, neither Horsewoman nor The Enchantress notieced the fact that Li Tianlan had returned back to the Fire-flaming Realm. They were attracted by the unique skill Li Tianlan displayed.
The skill was so powerful that it looked as if it was invincible. It was...
“This move can be regarded as the extreme of the swordsmanship.”
The Enchantress paused her steps and said in deep voice after two seconds of silence.
However, she immediately felt that her words were exaggerated. She shook her head and continued, “No, this move should be the extreme of the Fire-flaming Realm!”
Horsewoman just stared at the fire which burned the sky like a burning sun and said in a praising tone, “It looks so beautiful.”
