Chapter 6163 Jiang Zihao
Within the valley, Feng You brandished her phoenix spear.
With a voice trembling with fury, she shouted, “You’ve gone too far! How many times do we have to say it?! We’ve sworn on our ancestors’ souls that the Sovereign Source is not here! You have no right to keep targeting us!”
Behind her stood several elders of the mixed beast race, all wearing grave expressions. None of them had anticipated such a disaster to fall upon them so suddenly.
The mixed beast race had always been careful not to provoke others. Even when provoked, they endured in silence. Yet, despite their caution, calamity had still descended.
They didn’t know anything, but then, one faction after another arrived at their gates, demanding the Sovereign Source and threatening to exterminate their entire race if they didn’t get it.
From those demands, the mixed beast race could piece together what had happened: a small scouting party of theirs had likely obtained a Sovereign Source in Sovereign Fall Land, and now the consequences had reached their doorstep.
However, Qingxi hadn’t even returned. They had no idea if she was even alive. How were they supposed to hand over something they didn’t have?
They promised that if Qingxi came back, they would surrender the Sovereign Source willingly, as long as the aggressors left peacefully.
However, the people outside refused to listen. Clearly, they thought that the mixed beast race was lying.
Some among those outside the barrier had already received word of Qingxi’s return, but they weren’t in a rush. Instead, while secretly deploying people to hunt her down, they kept up their facade of aggression, tricking the mixed beast race into believing the Sovereign Source was in their hands.
Then, a voice rang out from the crowd:
“Hmph. A powerful divine sprout appearing in the tiny mixed beast race? That’s as miraculous as a phoenix appearing among the crows. Little girl, I’ll give you a chance. I’m also a divine sprout, and I have fifty-eight Sovereign flames. You should be about the same. Let’s duel. If you win, we’ll withdraw immediately. If you lose, you’ll become our hostage until the Sovereign Source is surrendered. After that, you’ll be set free.”
Long Chen narrowed his eyes, searching the crowd for the speaker. He spotted him among the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race’s faction, but he was human.
Noticing the mark on the speaker’s collar, Long Chen’s gaze sharpened.
“The Jiuli Jiang clan?”
The Jiang clan was actually standing on the same side as the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey race? Did the Jiuli race have business with the demon race? Did this fellow represent the Jiang clan, or did he represent the whole Jiuli race?
“Oh?”
Long Chen suddenly spotted another human behind this young man—an elder with the Jiang clan’s robes. His cultivation was at the fourth Heavenstage of the Sovereign realm.
With two members of the Jiang clan present in the Heavenly Demon Golden Monkey camp, it was clear this wasn’t a coincidence.
Long Chen glanced toward Feng You. She was inside the protective barrier, which made it difficult to gauge her cultivation directly. However, if this man claimed she had a comparable number of Sovereign flames, he had likely assessed her before the barrier was raised.
This big beauty is that strong now? She has over fifty Sovereign flames? What kind of miracle did she stumble upon? Long Chen was surprised.
Inside the barrier, Feng You looked coldly at the man.
“And how can I trust your words?” she asked.
“Feng You, don’t fall for it!” said an elder. “There are plenty of loopholes in his words. Even if you beat him, the ‘we’ he mentioned only includes his side. He’ll leave, but the others won’t let us off. And once you leave the formation, we won’t be able to protect you. We can only endure thanks to the barrier.”
Feng You smiled bitterly. “Ancestor, do you think I don’t know that? But if they all attack at once, the barrier won’t last. Once it collapses, we won’t be able to protect anyone. They’ll capture our people and use them as hostages. If I can stall them, maybe I can buy time until little sister Qingxi returns. If not, then… it’s just our fate.”
“Feng You, you are the future of our mixed beast race. You bear the ancestral land’s karmic luck. Any of us can die, but not you,” said the second elder.
“That’s right, we can fight. We’ll create a chance for you to escape. Once you do, properly cultivate. One day, you can offer up their heads to our spirits, and that will be enough,” said the third elder.
They were the oldest members of the mixed beast race. Since Feng You was the hope of their race, they refused to let her take such a risk.
Outside the barrier, the Jiang clan expert shouted impatiently, “Are you done talking? Are you coming out or not? Either fight or prepare for your race to be crushed!”
Hearing his arrogance, Long Chen frowned. This man’s tone was unbearable.
Feng You clenched her jaw.
“Patriarchs, if the mixed beast race is wiped out and only I remain, what would be the point? I’m sorry, but let me be willful this once. If nothing else, we’ll fight and die together.”
Without waiting for a reply, she stepped out of the barrier. The mixed beast race’s experts shouted after her, but it was too late.
Seeing her appear, the Jiang clan expert smiled excitedly. He immediately appeared in front of her.
“The Jiuli Jiang clan’s Jiang Zihao asks for some pointers!”
As he spoke, sixty-plus Sovereign flames erupted behind him, and his aura surged explosively.
“What?!”
“Despicable!”
“Didn’t you say you only had fifty-eight Sovereign flames?!”
The mixed beast race experts roared in fury. After all, this Jiang Zihao had sixty-five Sovereign flames.
“Hmph, ants, shut up. All is fair in war. You can’t blame anyone for your own foolishness. This little beauty’s not bad. I’ve taken a liking to her. She’ll be my bedwarmer in a bit.” Jiang Zihao sneered, his Sovereign flames blazing.
Feng You’s expression was ice cold. “Then we’ll have to see if you have that ability.”
“Alright, then I’ll show you ants the power of the divine race!”
Jiang Zihao stepped through the air, taking out a seven-star saber.
Behind Feng You, fifty-five Sovereign flames ignited, and a silver shield appeared in her hand.
BOOM!
Their first clash sent both of them staggering back several steps.
“The divine race? I don’t see what’s so divine about them,” sneered Feng You after checking her shield.
“Slut, you’re asking for it!” Jiang Zihao bellowed, condensing his flames into his seven-star saber. It transformed into a massive burning blade.
“Just try and block this one!”
“How about I block the next ten thousand?” Feng You sneered.
Feng You’s Sovereign flames concentrated onto her shield. Despite the explosion beneath her feet, she blocked the devastating attack head-on, startling the onlookers.
“You… is that really all you have?” asked Feng You with an odd expression.
“DIE!” Jiang Zihao howled. His Sovereign flames surged within his saber, causing it to grow.
Qingxi was clenching her fists, looking incredibly anxious. Seeing this, Long Chen smiled.
Jiang Zihao’s power continued to grow, shaking the world. But no matter how he pressed down, Feng You continued to hold her own despite looking to be on the verge of losing.
“Is this really the power of the divine race?” Feng You sneered.
“Slut, I’ll definitely kill you!” Jiang Zihao shouted, his divine rune appearing on his forehead.
His aura surged to a new level. But as his power climbed, his Sovereign qi began to falter. He had to burn his bloodline to maintain his offensive.
Everyone was startled by this. The fight had barely started, but Jiang Zihao’s Sovereign flames were already exhausted?
“Zihao, don’t be stupid! Don’t fall for her schemes!” shouted the elder from the Jiang clan.
BOOM!
Just then, a brilliant light burst from Feng You’s shield. Jiang Zihao’s massive saber qi shattered, his own blade was knocked flying, and he vomited blood as half his body went numb.
“How can this be?!” he cried in disbelief.
A phoenix spear tore through the air, slamming into his chest.
Jiang Zihao coughed up blood again, his throat tightening as Feng You lifted him into the air.
Everyone was stunned. Jiang Zihao had been pressing Feng You so hard she couldn’t fight back. Yet, in the blink of an eye, he was utterly defeated.
However, some sharper-eyed experts noticed what had happened: Feng You had absorbed and redirected his energy through a divine technique.
Jiang Zihao had simply lost to his own arrogance. If he hadn’t switched tactics out of pride, she wouldn’t have been able to counter like that.
Feng You stood, panting and covered in sweat. She had given it her all to subdue him.
Just as she was about to use him as a hostage, a terrifying pressure fell upon her.
BOOM!
She raised her spear just in time—but was blasted away.
Staggering to her feet, she looked up in rage. The Jiang clan elder had interfered and rescued Jiang Zihao.
Placing a hand on Jiang Zihao’s back, the elder re-ignited Jiang Zihao’s Sovereign flames using his own.
The elder looked at Feng You coldly. He disdainfully said, “An inferior race is only capable of inferior techniques. Zihao, test her out again.”
Jiang Zihao’s face twisted with fury. Gripping his saber, he rushed toward Feng You.
“Slut, die!”
Feng You clenched her teeth. Slowly, she pressed her finger toward the space between her brows.
Seeing this, the mixed beast race’s experts immediately cried out.
“No!”
She was about to unleash a forbidden technique.
But just then, a hand gently caught her wrist.
“There’s no need to sacrifice yourself for this fellow,” said a calm voice.
Feng You trembled. She looked up in disbelief at the figure standing before her.
“Careful!” she cried suddenly.
Jiang Zihao’s seven-star saber came crashing down—
CLANG!
A finger glowing with starlight blocked the blade effortlessly.
“What?!”
Everyone’s eyes widened, not daring to believe what they were seeing.
