Chapter 165: Seizing the Emperor Weapon, Beating the Number One Prodigy’s Face to a Pulp
The entire place fell silent, everyone was dumbfounded.
Seven Peak Martial Saints working together were actually unable to harm these two brats in the slightest. Could they be Martial Emperors?
No, that’s impossible.
Two brats, not even five years old, how could they be Martial Emperors?
Moreover, they didn’t have the pressure that a Martial Emperor should possess, nor did they have the Rule power that a Martial Emperor should have.
If they were Martial Emperors, why would they have needed to go through so much trouble when fighting Long Shaotian earlier? They could have probably slapped Long Shaotian to death with a single palm.
But if they weren’t Martial Emperors, even if they were Peak Martial Saints, even if they possessed Emperor Weapons, it would be impossible to block the combined attack of seven Peak Martial Saints.
How did they do it?
The numerous prodigies were puzzled, their eyes filled with disbelief.
“Big Sister, why were they struck by lightning?”
In mid-air, Chu Chen scratched his bun hairstyle, looking bewildered.
“I don’t know either. Maybe they told a lie,” Chu Xin blinked her big, round eyes and said after thinking for a moment.
“I remember now.”
Chu Chen patted his head and said seriously, “Dad said that those who lie will be struck by lightning. I thought he was just tricking me, but it turns out it’s true. Oh no, this is bad.”
Speaking up to this point, he suddenly looked nervously at the tribulation clouds in the sky and asked without turning his head, “Big Sister, we lied to Dad and snuck out. Will we also be struck by lightning?”
“Probably, not.”
Chu Xin also raised her little head, looking at the tribulation clouds in the sky, and said with a bit of guilt.
“Big Sister, can our Saber and Sword Domain block this tribulation lightning?”
Chu Chen asked again.
“I don’t know,” Chu Xin shook her head.
She had never been struck by tribulation lightning before, so how would she know its power?
Chu Chen thought for a moment and suggested, “Big Sister, why don’t we summon Dad’s Spirit Body? Dad should be able to block this tribulation lightning, right?”
He hadn’t rescued Mother yet, so he didn’t want to be turned to ashes by this tribulation lightning.
“Let’s wait and see.”
Chu Xin looked up at the tribulation clouds in the sky and didn’t make an immediate decision.
They could only summon Dad’s Spirit Body nine times, and each summon would reduce the number of times they could use it. It was best not to use it unless absolutely necessary.
These two brats can even summon their Dad’s Spirit Body?
The numerous prodigies were all startled when they heard this.
The Saber and Sword Domain created by the two brats working together was enough to block the combined attack of seven Peak Martial Saints, but in the eyes of these two brats, it was still inferior to their Dad’s Spirit Body.
Thinking about it this way, damn, their Dad’s Spirit Body had probably reached the Martial Emperor realm, right?
These weren’t just brats, they were damn Emperor’s children!
The way the numerous prodigies looked at the two brats changed, with a hint of fear.
Although they were prodigies, not many of their parents could reach the Martial Emperor realm.
The difficulty of going from Martial Saint to Martial Emperor was hundreds of thousands of times greater than going from Martial Venerable to Martial Saint.
Although there were now Ten Young Martial Saints in the Nine Provinces, it was estimated that only one or two of these Young Martial Saints would be able to successfully become Martial Emperors.
Of course, this didn’t mean that those Young Martial Venerables had no chance of becoming Martial Emperors. After all, besides talent, it also depended on opportunity.
And the father of these two brats, even his Spirit Body had cultivated to the Martial Emperor realm. His own cultivation must not be that of an ordinary Martial Emperor. This was too terrifying.
“You can summon a Martial Emperor-level Spirit Body?”
Long Shaoyu’s eyes flashed when he heard this. He flew over and said with a smile, “Ai Chirou, Ai Kaorou, you don’t have to be so nervous. This tribulation lightning won’t strike you.”
The frustration of having the Divine Lotus snatched away finally dissipated a little.
As long as he could trick these two brats into going to Cangzhou to help him, then their Martial Emperor Dad would indirectly be on Cangzhou’s side.
“Why?”
Chu Chen asked.
◈◈◈
Long Shaoyu explained, “This tribulation lightning appeared because those elders’ ages exceeded the limit of the secret realm, triggering the rules of the secret realm to descend. It will only attack those who violate the rules of the secret realm, not others.”
As he spoke, the tribulation clouds in the sky gradually dissipated.
“Just because they’re too old, they get attacked? What kind of rule is that?”
Chu Chen mumbled, then turned his head and asked with some confusion, “Big Sister, didn’t Dad say to respect the elderly and love the young? Why is the tribulation lightning here striking the elderly?”
Chu Xin tilted her head and thought for a moment, then said, “Maybe they’re bad elderly people. Dad also said to only respect good elderly people, and to beat up bad elderly people.”
“I see.”
Chu Chen nodded in realization.
The numerous prodigies were all speechless. Those elders were just summoned in, using the last moments of their lives to contribute to their forces. To their forces, they were undoubtedly great.
But in the eyes of these two brats, they were directly classified as bad people.
Thinking about those seven Peak Martial Saints, they would still bear this humiliation even after death. It was truly pitiful.
But thinking about it carefully, to these two brats, those seven Peak Martial Saints could indeed be considered bad people.
“Let’s go.”
Long Shaoyu suggested.
Now that the Divine Lotus was gone, there was no point in staying here any longer. It was better to leave first. There were too many people here, and the longer they stayed, the easier it would be for his lies to be exposed.
“Big Brother, wait a minute. We haven’t snatched the last map yet.”
Chu Xin shook her head and turned into a golden light, flying towards Long Shaotian on the ground.
Long Shaoyu stretched out his hand, originally wanting to say that the map was useless now, but after thinking about it, he ultimately gave up.
If he said it now, wouldn’t his lies be exposed?
“Hand over the map, and that lotus platform, or I’ll spank your butt until it’s sore.”
Chu Xin looked down from above and threatened in a childish voice.
“Big Sister, his butt is already sore.”
Chu Chen reminded loudly.
“Oh, right.”
Chu Xin glanced at Long Shaotian’s butt, thought for a moment, and then threatened fiercely, “Then I’ll beat your face to a pulp.”
“I!”
A trace of grief and indignation flashed in Long Shaotian’s eyes. As the number one prodigy of the Nine Provinces, when had he ever been treated like this? The excessive grief and indignation made him endure the severe pain in his butt and stand up from the ground.
“Looks like the beating wasn’t painful enough.”
Chu Xin shook her little head, her body flashed, and she appeared in front of Long Shaotian. She waved her little white fist and punched Long Shaotian’s handsome face.
A miserable scream was heard as Long Shaotian was sent flying. Before he could land, a golden light flashed, and another punch landed on the other side of his face.
The numerous prodigies could only hear a series of miserable screams and see flashes of golden light and figures, but they couldn’t see Chu Xin’s punches at all.
But hearing those miserable screams, everyone still felt a chill run down their spines.
The one being beaten like a sandbag was the number one prodigy of the Nine Provinces!
“Here! I’ll give it to you!”
Finally, Long Shaotian couldn’t take it anymore and threw out the Provincial Secret Realm Map and the Emperor Weapon Sixth-Rank Lotus Platform. By this time, his face was already swollen and red, completely unrecognizable from his previous handsome appearance.
“You should have done this earlier.”
Chu Xin finally stopped. She took the Provincial Secret Realm Map, looked at it, and put it into her Spatial Ring. Then, her gaze turned to the Sixth-Rank Lotus Platform and she mumbled, “The Divine Lotus can be eaten, can this lotus platform be eaten too?”
Long Shaotian’s eyes revealed a trace of grief and indignation, but he had no choice but to withdraw his soul imprint.
Only then did Chu Xin wave her little hand and take the Sixth-Rank Lotus Platform into her hand, mumbling softly, “The Divine Lotus can be eaten, can this lotus platform be eaten too?”
