Chapter 592: The War God’s Might

Chapter 592: Chapter 592: The War God’s Might

Long Ao was fighting two opponents at once, yet he held the upper hand.

Everyone knew full well that the main reason Long Ao could relentlessly pressure his two opponents was the brick in his hand.

No one knew the origin of the brick in Long Ao’s hand, but it was somehow powerful enough for him to face two opponents at once and completely suppress the combined might of two Saints.

The brick was too powerful.

Long Ao wildly smashed down with the brick, giving the two of them no chance to even catch their breath.

At this point, both Yang Feng and Yang Jian had thoughts of retreating. As the saying goes, he who fights and runs away lives to fight another day.

They exchanged a look, then simultaneously turned and fled.

But just then, Long Ao suddenly used his Spatial Teleportation, appearing directly in front of Yang Feng. He didn’t hesitate to lash out with a kick, landing it squarely on Yang Feng’s rear.

"Old Ancestor!"

Yang Jian paid no mind to whether Yang Feng lived or died. He fled at top speed, vanishing without a trace in the blink of an eye.

Yang Jian abandoned Yang Feng?

Everyone cursed Yang Jian. No matter what, Yang Feng was still a member of the Sacred Land. With this, the Sacred Land was considered utterly destroyed—an outcome no one could have predicted.

Yang Jian had escaped, but Yang Feng was left behind.

As a Saint, if Yang Feng had fought with his full strength, it was still very much uncertain whether Long Ao could have actually killed him.

But now, Yang Feng was in despair. He seemed to have forgotten that Long Ao was only a Semi-Saint, not an actual Saint, and so he simply gave up resisting.

Long Ao showed not a shred of mercy. He knew a simple truth: mercy toward an enemy is cruelty to oneself. Rather than face endless trouble later, it was better to eradicate the problem at its root.

Long Ao stored the Chaos Stele in his Dantian, then began to pummel Yang Feng ferociously with his fists.

He was making an example of him.

’I’ll have to leave Cloud Island sooner or later,’ Long Ao knew. ’Even if I use my power to suppress the island for now, what about the future?’

That was why Long Ao intended to beat Yang Feng to death—to send a message to everyone watching.

In just a few short minutes, Yang Feng was beaten to within an inch of his life. Long Ao finished him off, then placed his body, along with the Soul Slave Yang Chen, into the Blood Pool to refine their souls.

’So this is the benefit of a powerful soul.’ Long Ao finally understood. ’If I hadn’t gone through that soul Fusion, I never would have broken through in my Cultivation or been able to use Spatial Teleportation repeatedly. I would’ve been killed by Yang Jian long ago.’

Having slain the Four Great Semi-Saint Martial Artists and beaten Yang Feng to death, Long Ao stood there like a descended War God. His divine might was unparalleled.

Long Ao, the War God. The might of a War God.

Everyone watched Long Ao, trembling in fear. Long Ao then handed everything over to Long Bai. With the Ten Great Holy Beasts to assist him, Long Bai was fully confident he could completely eradicate the Sacred Land in a short amount of time.

Long Bai had been worried. ’Even if the Long Family becomes the temporary ruler of Cloud Island, it won’t be easy to hold on to that position.’ But now, none of that was an issue. With the Ten Great Holy Beasts backing them, the Long Family could dominate Cloud Island with ease.

Long Bai breathed a sigh of relief. ’It’s a good thing I came,’ he thought. ’Otherwise, forget becoming the rulers of Cloud Island; it’s hard to imagine how the Sacred Land would have dealt with the Long Family.’

The news of Long Ao destroying the Sacred Land spread like wildfire. Everyone who heard it was aghast. From this moment on, Long Ao’s name became famous throughout Cloud Island.

And so his title, Long Ao the War God, began to spread.

Long Ao felt helpless about this nickname but could do nothing about it. Before he knew it, word of his deeds on Cloud Island had spread far and wide. The surrounding islands all learned that Cloud Island had such a War God.

Apparently, there were many people in the world with too much time on their hands. Hearing that Long Ao had proclaimed himself the War God, they were immediately displeased. Semi-Saint Martial Artists and Saints from the surrounding islands flocked over, wanting to see this so-called War God of Cloud Island for themselves.

Long Ao chose to ignore the gossip. As for the challengers, he dealt with them one by one. With the Chaos Stele, he feared no Saint. As for any Semi-Saints, they were simply courting death.

「Long Family Estate」

"Sect Leader Long, thank you. Without you, the Long Family would have been doomed beyond recovery."

Long Ao knew exactly what Long Bai meant. He nodded. "Let’s consider this matter settled. I’ll be leaving Cloud Island in a few days. Remember, if Wang Hao and Yang Jian come looking for trouble, you must outsmart them. Do not fight them head-on."

The only two people Long Ao was worried about were Wang Hao and Yang Jian.

’If I leave and Wang Hao and Yang Jian show up... based on their strength, destroying the Ten Great Holy Beast Corpse Slaves shouldn’t be too difficult for them. If that happens, how will the Long Family deal with it?’

But Long Ao knew he had to leave. The reason was simple: he was worried about the safety of Kyushu.

He hadn’t returned to the Celestial State since the Beast Tide ended and knew nothing of its current situation. He was getting impatient.

"Sect Leader Long, please rest assured. We won’t be reckless."

"Mm. Once I’ve handled things in Kyushu, I will definitely return."

"Master, you must come back."

Nodding, Long Ao remained on Cloud Island for the time being. ’I really hope Wang Hao and Yang Jian come back,’ he thought. ’If they do, I can settle things with them once and for all. That would be perfect.’

Yang Jian didn’t show, but Wang Hao did.

「By the sea.」

"Long Ao, congratulations on destroying the Sacred Land and killing Yang Feng."

"Wang Hao, you’ve got a lot of nerve. You know you’re no match for me, yet you still dared to show up."

"Oh, right. I almost forgot to mention," Long Ao said, sensing Wang Hao’s aura. "Your Cultivation has broken through to the Saint realm." He was surprised to find that Wang Hao had indeed officially become a Saint. ’Such a cultivation speed is almost unnatural.’ Even knowing that Wang Hao was a Reincarnation Martial Artist who couldn’t be judged by ordinary standards, Long Ao couldn’t help but marvel.

’No wonder so many Divine Dao Martial Artists are willing to risk entering the Path of Reincarnation. The temptation is just too great. Even I’m finding it hard to resist.’

"Wang Hao, even if you’ve become a Saint, do you really think you can defeat me?"

Long Ao was curious. ’News that I killed Yang Feng and scared off Yang Jian must have spread by now. There’s no way Wang Hao doesn’t know. So why did he still come?’

’Is Wang Hao so confident that he thinks he could even defeat Yang Jian?’

As if sensing Long Ao’s confusion, Wang Hao suddenly gave a cold smirk. "Long Ao, I came to you today for one reason. If you agree, it will be of great benefit to you. It could even make breaking through to the Supreme Divine Dao possible in the future."

’Supreme Divine Dao?’

Long Ao was curious. He had no idea what this Supreme Divine Dao Wang Hao spoke of was.
