Ultimate Scheming System

At the drop of a hat, the entire area fell into a dead silence.

Duan Jiude’s move had impressed the entire Exploding Heavens Faction as they watched his actions unfold. There was no doubt in their minds that he was a member of the Wicked Trio of Que, De, and Dog.

The entire Sea Tribe Army also stood still in their places in shock.

Never had they imagined that their supremely powerful, highly respected commander would ever be reduced to such a state by an old man. Duan Jiude’s nasty, shameless moves made their skins crawl and chilled them to their cores.

ROAR!

Suddenly, a deafening roar enveloped the entire area.

“Do you want to die?”

The Sea Tribe commander burst out from the rubble. A murderous rage emanated from his still-bleeding body as he sped directly toward Duan Jiude.

WHOA!

Duan Jiude shouted out in surprise, and his face got pale as he hastily pulled out a talisman and threw it forward, while quickly retreating.

This time, he dared not be so bold. After all, he was only at the Earth Celestial stage. There was no way he could go head to head with a Heaven Celestial warrior at the peak of his stage. It would be like hitting an egg against a rock.

HUMPH! “You’re like an ant. Where do you think you can escape?”

The commander in the golden armor grunted as the lance he held in his hand lit up, shining from within and lighting up half of the sky. The light took the shape of a large wave, which spread out in all directions.

At that moment, the entire void was distorted, and it even began to crack.

Duan Jiude was the closest to the wave, and his entire body was swept up by it and then crashed heavily into the ground. Blood spurted from his mouth, and his head was ringing. He was hurt badly.

Everyone else from the Exploding Heavens Faction, including the Eight-headed Serpent and Liu Jingning, was also swept to the ground by the wave. It was a devastating situation.

After all, this opponent was much too strong. It was impossible to defeat him.

“As I said, in my eyes, you all are like ants. I can crush you with very little power. How dare you, with what courage, act out in front of me?” the commander floated in mid-air, his hands clasped behind his back as he stared derisively at Duan Jiude and the rest.

Duan Jiude sneered as he painfully lifted his hand and pointed at the commander, saying, “Idiot, your d*ck is still bleeding, stop the blood before you continue your rant. Or else, I won’t be able to stop laughing.”

The commander’s temper flared at these words. “I think you really want to die,” he roared, as the lance from his hand flew toward Duan Jiude.

Duan Jiude’s attack had enraged him. And now Duan Jiude continued to provoke him, so he could no longer hold back his temper or his desire to torture Duan Jiude. He wanted to kill Duan Jiude right away.

BOOM!

His lance cut through the void and broke the sound barrier as it flew directly toward Duan Jiude. It sounded like wild thunder and carried with it a terrible rage.

“D*mn, have my abilities failed? And what about my divination?” Duan Jiude lamented, his face contorted in pain from the injuries to his body. The incredible speed of the lance combined with the commander’s murderous rage had paralyzed him, and he was unable to escape.

POW!

At this exact moment, a ray of light flew across the sky, directly hitting the lance.

The entire lance exploded in the sky, turning into dust, which the wind then carried away.

“What…??” The commander was stunned, his expression one of extreme disbelief.

This sudden change in the scenario made everyone present stand still with wonder.

Except for Duan Jiude… He was the first to react. His escape from imminent death moved him to cry out, “D*mn, the kid is finally here!”

“What? Is it Brother Que?” The Eight-headed Serpent looked up in surprise, his eyes searching in all directions.

Liu Jingning had the same expression on her face, as she swept her gaze all around, looking for Xu Que.

However, despite having a clear view and looking carefully, they saw no one except for themselves.

The entire group became very confused.

“Huh, where is he? Brother Que, come out quickly, and stop fooling around,” the Eight-headed Serpent shouted out.

“Kid, come out quickly! This old man can’t take too much more,” Duan Jiude chimed in.

Suddenly, a voice rang out, which sent chills down all their spines.

“Who are you calling kid?”

Duan Jiude was stunned into silence. His whole body became rigid, and his face wore an astonished look, as he said with incredulity, “Grand…grand master?”

WHOOSH!

A mild wind blew over, as a silhouette appeared next to Duan Jiude.

With flowing Taoist robes and an elegant face etched with delicate features surrounded by a gorgeous mane of hair, floating as light as the wind, this was Duan Jiude’s grand master: Zixia Fairy.

Everyone was flabbergasted by her appearance, and fear appeared on their faces once again.

This beautiful Taoist woman had materialized without warning. It was terrifying.

Also, among the group of people who were present, not too many were familiar with Zixia Fairy. Aside from Duan Jiude, only Liu Jingning knew of her, and, at the moment, she was also stunned into silence.

Everyone else appeared horrified. However, when they heard Duan Jiude greet Zixia Fairy, they all felt bewildered.

“How could the sleazy Duan Jiude have such an ethereal grand master?”

“Oh, Master, Little Duan has missed you. Thank you for saving my life. Little Duan will never forget this.” Duan Jiude’s face was covered with tears as he bawled. These were not tears of excitement or joy, they were tears of fear.

“Are you still loyal to your master? Haven’t you joined the Exploding Heavens Faction?” Zixia Fairy stared coldly at Duan Jiude, her face like ice.

Duan Jiude’s face was a horror to behold, his nose was running as he cried in desperation, “Master, this is all a misunderstanding. Little Duan belongs to the Mighty Sect, in life and in death. I was forced to join the Exploding Heavens Faction. That kid, Xu Que, put a knife to my throat and forced me to join.”

Everyone else present cast scornful looks at him, and they didn’t know what to say.

However, everyone here knew who Duan Jiude was and were basically familiar with his character. The shameless words he had uttered, well, this was normal for him.

Also, Duan Jiude appeared genuinely afraid at this time.

He knew clearly what kind of person his grand master was. No one else upheld the Sect rules more than she did. She definitely was strict to the point where her followers would fear her.

And now he finally understood. His divination had not calculated incorrectly. He had simply misunderstood the results. The reason that the divination told him not to worry about the Sea Tribe Army was not because of Xu Que, it was because of his grand master, Zixia Fairy.

“Who…who are you?”

The Sea Tribe commander with the golden armor peered at Zixia Fairy with a nervous face, his voice trembling with a hint of fear.

A person who could materialize from thin air like this and obliterate his lance in one single move had to be beyond his abilities.

“How dare you ask my grand master such a question,” Duan Jiude immediately shouted out, holding onto any opportunity to flatter his grand master.

Zixia Fairy glanced over the entire Sea Tribe. No one held her attention, not even the commanders.

Her gaze fell upon the still-battling enormous turtle and Mo Junchen, but she instantly lost interest.

“This is not the place for you all, go back to your Infinite Sea.”

Zixia Fairy spoke to the entire Sea Tribe, but only the turtle responded.

A huge flash ripped into the void and a violent force emerged from it. The razor-blade wind of the void turned into a storm and instantly covered the Sea Tribe Army.

Following the flash, the void closed, and the air was restored to silence.

“Who is this?” The giant turtle was startled as it suddenly felt her gaze. He couldn’t help feeling a chill go down his spine.

As he quickly realized the imposing presence of Zixia Fairy, he spoke quietly, “Fellow cultivator, we’re just here to meet our ancestors. We hope you don’t become involved. Otherwise, when our ancestors come out, our two tribes will battle to the death.”

Zixia Fairy didn’t respond. She slowly raised her hands. The wide sleeves of her Taoist robe slipped down, exposing a pair of fair, dainty arms that reached out toward the Sea Tribe Army with a wave.

BOOM!

Instantly, the void ripped open. A violent force emerged from it. A devastating storm of blades converged and instantly covered the Sea Tribe Army.

Just as fast, the break in the void closed up, and the air was restored to silence.

The whole process, which took place in just a blink of an eye, showed them that all the Sea Tribe Army had disappeared. They’d turned into dust and slowly fell from the air.

Even the generals and the commander in his golden armor disappeared with the rest of the Sea Tribe Army.

At this moment, the audience was frozen into a deadly silence.

Even the turtle was scared to death, his face looked terrorized. This was so hard to believe,

“This…” Duan Jiude opened his mouth wide in surprise.

The Sea Tribe Army had disappeared in a cloud of dust.

“After only ten short years, grand master, how did you get so strong?”
