Chapter 313: Ying’s Support has Arrived!

FukinDeadBeat

Hu Tao, the troublemaker and supposedly sealed member of Heaven’s Angels, led the assault. He arrived from out of Runt’s shadow with his chain and ball flailing behind him. “Hahahaha! I wasn’t expecting a surprise as fun as this! Looks like I gotta thank that flat ass bitch after we’re done! Come on, Runt! I better see you getting some good shots in!” Hu tao rushed forward at the group of elders like a wild beast finally free of its chain. 

Hu Tao’s chain moved like a separate independent limb capable of making its own decisions and actions. It smashed into an unprepared elder’s head and buried him head-first into the ground but it wasn’t finished just yet. It floated into the air, sparked with electricity, and then crashed back down onto the incapacitated elder. The elder perished through a combination of electrocution and severe internal injuries. 

“Who the hell?!” 

“Do you know who you children are messing with!?” 

“You kids are courting death!” 

The elders cried out in fury and disbelief. Hu Tao merely laughed as he clawed toward a sword-wielding elder. “The Golden Serpent Sect is here to put you worms back in your places! Six feet under!” A sword blocked Hu Tao’s clawed attack but as they contested strength with one another, black ooze started to leak from Hu Tao’s hand, corroding the sword. It didn’t take long for the elder to decide to fall back from Hu Tao but Hu Tao was already expecting him to be a pussy shit little bitch. Hu Tao rushed into some black sludge on the ground and disappeared. 

“Where?!” The elder couldn’t finish his words as his midsection was suddenly not connected anymore. 

Hu Tao flicked his nails after appearing from behind the elder. A bloodthirsty smile was plastered on his face as he saw one particularly strong bastard just sitting and watching. It was always those cowardly bastards that let others do the fighting for them that were either the weakest or strongest. Like a wolf on the hunt, Hu Tao prowled forward toward him. 

“Enjoying the view?” Hu Tao snuck up behind him. 

“To think the Golden Serpent Sect was hiding children this talented... Surely, you all should’ve been in the middle of the Meeting of Great Talents. Why are you all here instead?” Elder Ping questioned. 

“Don’t ask boring fucking questions. If you were going to ask a question, you should’ve asked me if I’m going to kick your ass in 5 minutes or 10 minutes?” Hu Tao grinned. 

“Fitting, a disciple of the Golden Serpent Sect would have a personality this repulsive.” He scoffed. 

“Flirting with me ain’t going to save ya. I'm not into old fucks with sticks up their asses.”  

Without any warning or indication, a single sword stroke came toward Hu Tao’s throat. At the same time, a giant iron meteor seemed to be falling down straight on top of Elder Ping’s head. A burst of wind and qi exploded outward from the clash of their weapon intents clashing. Hu Tao’s chain and ball intent vs Elder Ping’s sword intent. A brief look of disbelief appeared on Elder Ping’s face, finally breaking his stoic disposition so far. 

“Impossible... A mere child able to match my mastery in sword intent with their own? I refuse to believe it!” Elder Ping slashed out in rage. 

Hu Tao tossed his iron ball attached to his infinitely growing chain at the incoming sword. With his hand on the chain, the iron ball rapidly grew as it flew toward the aged swordsman. Elder Ping was sent flying away as he was forced to block the huge ball. It took a good portion of Elder Ping’s qi but soon enough, he managed to knock the iron ball away. His eyes were filled with rage at being played around with by a junior not even half his age. Sword qi manifested all around him like a cyclone of swords. 

“Take a look around you, idiot.” Hu Tao casually picked some ear wax out of his ear. 

“Hmph. I’m not nearly foolish enough to fall for such a trick.” Elder Ping kept his eyes focused exactly on Hu Tao. 

“Your funeral, dumbass.” Hu Tao’s body sparked with electricity as he became a being of lightning and thunder. 

In just a single moment, Hu Tao’s seemed to shift into an alternate being completely. Bright-red lightning sparked all over his body, seemingly racing to some unknown goal. His pupils turned into two bolts of lightning while his chain and ball turned into electricity completely. Unknown to Elder Ping, Hu Tao’s been growing and enlarging his chain around the two of them ever since he threw his ball at him. Now, with a single crush of Hu Tao’s palm, his chains came in with deadly speed! 

Elder Ping’s sword qi was helpless to resist against unbreakable chains. Elder Ping was strung up by lightning itself and electrocuted into a charcoal corpse. Hu Tao shifted back into his original form with a maniac grin on his face. His eyes instantly searched for the next prey to play around with. 

“Who knew being a hero could be fun?” He cackled. 

Runt sighed as he rubbed the back of his head searching for someone that wouldn’t drain much of his strength. Jue happily stood next to him cracking her fists while sniffing her nose. She pointed at a group of disciples while excitedly nodding her head. This gave Runt the opposite impression as he ignored her and headed toward a different group of disciples. 

Jue hung her head in sadness as Runt began blowing into his golden ocarina. The group of disciples were instantly charmed and Jue didn’t hold back as she charged in the middle of them. Her fists shattered bones and her kicks mortally wounded anyone slow enough to get by them. It didn’t take long for an elder to notice his disciples were being slaughtered like pigs and to come rushing in.  

Elder Lixue slashed her sword toward the tall and muscular girl taking out her disciples. Jue met her sword with her leg coated in qi. Their clash resulted in Jue being forced back several feet with a deep cut on her tibia. Runt suddenly appeared next to her and a magical sound flowed out of his ocarina into Jue’s wound. In real-time, the injury was being healed! 

“Thanks, Lil Bro!” Jue was filled with joy. 

“Don’t be so reckless. She’s dangerous.” Runt warned. 

“Nothing can stand up to the power of sibling love.” Qi burst outward from Jue’s body. 

A green incorporeal chain floated around Runt’s figure while a black substance was wrapped around his wrist like a bracelet. From his shadow, two reddish-black clones made of qi clawed their way out of his shadow and crouched next to him like wolves. Runt sat down in lotus and continued to play his ocarina as his qi clones rushed toward the elder along with Jue. 

Jue felt like her entire sense of self was being energized through her Little Bro’s music! There was no need to think as the beautiful sound seemed to take control over her body and mind. ‘Let the clones take the lead. Your only job is to strike when an opening appears.’ Her Little Bro’s voice floated inside her head. The two clones did as they were ordered. 

The two struck with their palms. This was the Flowing Palms of Judgement! A sky-ranked martial art taught to Runt by Hu Tao! With this martial art, Runt’s clones could attack with a non-stop rapid flow of palm strikes. In the midst of their attacks, Jue was performing a strange movement? It looked like she was conducting an elegant dance... 

Jue’s leg struck out in the middle of her performance and suddenly a rush of qi headed straight toward the distracted Elder Lixue. Elder Lixue sensed the incoming qi attack before it came but was nearly helpless to stop it as she was caught up by the two little boys. Their palm strikes had the unusual property of targeting her qi points and disrupting the flow of her qi! A possibility only thanks to Lei Zhi’s teachings during the Grand Tournament. As such, Elder Lixue’s face was smashed in by qi attack reinforced with Jue’s kick. 

The clones didn’t hesitate to ruthlessly strike the elder while she was in distress. Although far weaker than her, even an ant can kill an elephant in the right situation. Their palms lined up side-by-side as they both targeted the elder’s heart. Elder Lixue’s eyes widened in fear and disbelief at the situation. Doing her utmost to surge and control the qi within her body, Elder Lixue struck out at the two with sword intent. Intending to sever their very being through sword intent. 

She was successful. The two clones were sliced into nothingness since they were originally beings of qi. Unfortunately, Elder Lixue’s desperate act to protect her life left her open to Jue. Jue appeared above the elder with her Little Bro’s qi supporting her all the way and struck down with her fist. Elder Lixue could do nothing but block with her sword. She and her sword were broken apart by Jue’s fist. The sword shattered into a million pieces while all the bones in her body were in a similar state. Runt finished her off by controlling his invisible sound qi and piercing through her heart with a sound arrow. 

“Protect me while I support the rest.” Runt temporarily stopped his music. 

“You can count on me!” Jue smiled brightly as she jumped next to Runt’s stationary figure.
