Chen Xiu looked at the part of the plaza which had been turned into a battlefield. There, he could see a Rahu Clan's youth with an enormous single hand breathing unstably, but still standing on his feet. He had several deep wounds on his body while a Doro clan youth with extra arms was lying on the ground beside him, having lost the round.
As expected, the battle was still won by Rahu Clan's young master.
Among the four great clans of Asura City, the most formidable in terms of strength was the Rahu Clan with their thick arms. They were extremely large, to the point they could cover up the sky and shield the moon. Furthermore, given their stubborn nature, they were the natural bane of Deva Clan's charming techniques.
Luo Tian, who was sitting on his large elephant, was grinning, while Ming Xiu's complexion was gloomy. He had already determined that the reason behind his loss was definitely Chen Xiu.
Domingle was expressionless, but his twelve pairs of eyes were focused upon the Pipa clansmen standing in the plaza. Jasmine in her palanquin was also completely silent.
When Liu Bailing saw that, her expression turned ruthless. She placed her lily-white hands on the strings and began to play another tone.
Suddenly, the entire world around them changed. Black clouds gathered in the sky while a violent gale willfully rushed across the ground.
Two middle-aged women of Pipa Clan grabbed the children and quickly flew into the sky, rushing toward the jungle.
Liu Bailing's presence also rose dramatically. The red glint between her eyes released a dazzling light, and divine might descended. The old and sick of the Pipa Clan who had chosen to stay behind also revealed determined expressions and began to stir their pipa.
A hot-blooded, melodious sound echoed. It started with Liu Bailing and was followed by the Pipa clansmen.
Countless soundwaves transformed into four roaring generals that stood orderly in the sky. The blades in their hands were each pointing at one of the four young masters.
Ming Xiu looked at the general rushing toward him, and a pair of black-golden eyeballs appeared in his hands. He placed them into his eye sockets and instantly his presence rose to the realm of gods. The pair of eyes on each of his three faces turned black-golden as well, and he instantly shot out two rays of golden light through his golden pupils.
After it struck the general head-on, the general vanished into a puff of smoke.
A melodious tone echoed on the ground, and the general rushing toward the palanquin also dispersed a meter away from it.
Domingle looked at the general coming for him, and a blood-red dagger appeared in his hand. He threw it towards the enemy and annihilated them straight away.
Luo Tian, still sitting on his enormous elephant, raised his giant hands toward the sky with a big smile. The next instant, they extended like snakes, and his palms also became larger as if trying to cover the heavens.
One of his palms descended, creating a violent wind which scattered the soundwaves which had taken the form of a general. The palm also struck Liu Bailing as well as the other Pipa clansmen, who spat out blood and toppled to the ground with despair on their faces.
"This holy daughter, you are really stubborn. We four are carrying the treasures of our clans which aren't inferior to your Pipa clan's treasure. You are also alone while we are four, so how could you even think of helping those children escape?"
Luo Tian grabbed the Pipa clansmen who had fled with the children with a smile.
He glanced at the ashen-faced Pipa clansmen, then at the gloomy faces of the other young masters. After seeing them, he burst out laughing and left the scene.
The silhouette in the palanquin also did not make any sound. The four people supporting the palanquin simply turned around and went into the jungle.
Nearby, Domingle sighed and also entered jungle. It left only Ming Xiu and Chen Xiu on the scene.
At that moment, Ming Xiu happened to look at the ground and see Liu Bailing's deathly pale face. It was as if three words in uppercase had appeared on his face—I want you. His lustful eyes looked at the delicate Liu Bailing, and the corners of his lips curled up into a sneer.
Liu Tian had won the competition and obtained the soul of Ancient God Lakshmi. Domingle and Jasmine had left after him, thinking of ambushing him midway. Even if Ming Xiue followed them and joined together to snatch the soul of Ancient God Lakshmi, he might still not be able to obtain many benefits. It was an extremely troublesome situation.
In the meantime, the Holy Daughter Liu Bailing was right there before him. As long as she became his concubine, the trip would not have been in vain.
"Capture the Pipa clansmen!"
Ming Xiu waved his hand, indicating for the subordinates behind him to take action. Divine might exploded from his own body, and he rushed to suppress Liu Bailing.
As for Chen Xiu, he naturally was not in Ming Xiu's mind. Even if Chen Xiu's subordinate had insta killed his own just a moment ago, it only meant that his subordinate was quite ferocious. Chen Xiu's luck could be considered as pretty good for him to have managed to find a subordinate who could defeat the powerful branch descendant.
But even if his subordinate was more powerful, so what? It was of no use anymore.
After all, Ming Xiu had already brought out the treasure the clan had prepared for him. It allowed his cultivation to enter the god realm for a short time, so even if Chen Xiu's subordinate was fiercer, he was only a flux expert in the end.
Mortals, how could they compare to gods?
"When this young master raised the condition for your surrender, you did not agree. Now, the soul of Ancient God Lakshmi has been taken, and your value has greatly decreased compared to before. I only want to ask you one thing, are you regretful now?" Ming Xiu said with a smile while walking toward Liu Bailing.
"Not going to talk? Nevermind. Ancient God Lakshmi has perished, so the people of Lakshmi City will now turn into slaves without his protection. Your territory in Lanlou will be annexed by other ancient gods sooner or later. You should have seen this future even with closed eyes, so why did you not agree to my condition earlier? So stupid."
Liu Bailing did not say anything. She kept her eyes shut, feeling wronged in her heart. Originally, she was only a simple girl of Pipa Clan, but after being defeated in battle, Ancient God Lakshmi had not shown himself. The last holy daughter of the clan did not return either. The only thing that came back was the jade pipa, the symbol of their clan.
Thus, Liu Bailing, who was only an initial stage sage flux expert, was forced into the position of the holy daughter, becoming the holy daughter with the lowest cultivation ever.
It was because of her powerlessness then that the young masters of Asura City could act so wantonly.
When Liu Bailing thought of that, a bright light radiated from the red glint between her eyebrows. She placed her jade pipa down, preparing to destroy both herself and it, but when she raised her head for the last time, she saw something she did not expect.
Chen Xiu looked at Ming Xiu's gloomy complexion and became even more delighted in his heart. He then expressionly said, "This Pipa clan is mine. Young master, your goal shouldn't be different from the other young masters, so why aren't you going to intercept Luo Tian to rob him of Ancient God Lakshmi's soul? If you take the meat, then at least leave the broth for me."
"What are you saying? You're nothing more than trash, but you still dare to negotiate with this young master? If you don't know how to appreciate my kindness, then I will kill you now."
Ming Xiu, who was completely frustrated, bellowed and released the formidable might of a god.
When Chen Xiu was attacked by it, his face instantly turned deathly pale, and his arms began to tremble.
After a good moment though, he slowly turned his attention back to Ming Xiu and said while clapping, "You are only a temporary god and not a real god, so why are you being so arrogant? If young master thinks of himself as unparalleled under the heavens, then let my subordinate check out your strength!"
