Translator: EndlessFantasy TranslationEditor: EndlessFantasy Translation
"All I know is you killed three of my direct disciples. Today, you'll have to compensate me! Moreover, the compensation has to satisfy me!" Martial Emperor Shi Qi said loudly. When he reached the end of his sentence, his eyes shone brightly.
Upon hearing Martial Emperor Shi Qi's words, disdain could be seen in the depth of Han Xue Nai's gaze. At the same time, she asked curiously, "I wonder what kind of compensation you want from us?"
"You killed three of my direct disciples and caused a heavy loss to my Lost Stone Forest. You two must be Demon Emperors. Make an oath using the Nine-Nine Heavenly Tribulation and swear thirty years of servitude to me!" Martial Emperor Shi Qi answered.
This was the 'compensation' he wanted.
Although he suspected the yellow-clad teenage girl and white-clad little girl before him were both Demon Emperors, he did not think they were powerful enough to defeat him. He was a Fourth Level Martial Emperor after all.
His strength could be considered as above average among all the Martial Emperors and Demon Emperors on Cloud Continent.
In his opinion, these two Demon Emperors were very likely no match for him.
This was because he knew all the Demon Emperors who were stronger than him on Cloud Continent, and these two standing before him were not among them.
"30 years of servitude?" Han Xue Nai and Little White were stunned when they heard Martial Emperor Shi Qi's words.
As for the group of onlookers, all their eyes brightened immediately, regardless if they were the Martial Emperor's disciples and followers or the people who came to participate in the Selection of the Martial Emperor's disciples and followers.
In their opinion, they would have a good show to watch soon.
"Do you think Lord Martial Emperor would be able to subjugate them for thirty years?"
"I guess so… I can see that Lord Martial Emperor is very confident. Although he knows these two are Demon Emperors, he's not scared at all."
"If Lord Martial Emperor really manages to subjugate them, we'll have two additional Demon Emperors in our Lost Stone Forest! I'm a little excited just thinking about it."
Many Martial Emperor's disciples and followers felt a little excited.
"I can't believe we get to see Martial Emperor Shi Qi before the Selection of the Martial Emperor's disciples and followers even begins."
"I've long heard that Martial Emperor Shi Qi is at the Third Level Martial Emperor Stage. So many years have passed, he might have already broken through to the Fourth Level Martial Emperor Stage."
"He must have already broken through… Otherwise, he wouldn't be so confident in front of those two who might be Demon Emperors."
…
The participants of the Selection of the Martial Emperor's disciples and followers held by Lost Stone Forest had a discussion among themselves.
They were confident in Martial Emperor Shi Qi's strength.
"Little White, somebody wants us to subjugate ourselves to him for thirty years," Han Xue Nai said as she looked at Little White. She was the first to return to her senses.
"Well then, let's see if he has the ability or not." Upon hearing that, Little White's bright eyes shone coldly as she looked at Martial Emperor Shi Qi. Although her tone was calm, a murderous intent was hidden in it.
Martial Emperor Shi Qi did not respond to Little White's provocation. Instead, he said, "I'll let you know if I have that ability or not. Very soon, you'll tremble under my strength and will willingly swear thirty years of servitude to me."
"In that case, I'll play with you," Little White replied nonchalantly.
"It's my pleasure!" Martial Emperor Shi Qi answered nonchalantly as well. The moment the words left his mouth, the robe on his body fluttered as he emitted waves of bloodcurdling aura. It caused most of the onlookers to take a few steps back.
Some people with lower cultivation base were even forced to retreat far behind.
A Martial Emperor's strength was just too strong. It was so strong that it sent chills down one's spine.
As for Little White, she did not seem like she was afraid of the aura that Martial Emperor Shi Qi emitted. It was as though she did not feel anything at all.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Martial Emperor Shi Qi and the white-clad little girl vanished on the spot at lightning-speed from the eyes of most people present on the scene. They could only hear the distinct sound of wind whistling that disappeared as soon as it appeared.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
…
Before they even realized what was happening, they heard a series of deafening explosions that reverberated in the air.
They did not even have a chance to squint their eyes to have look when a flurry of hurricane swept out and sent them flying like arrows leaving its bow.
Only the Martial Emperor's disciples stayed rooted to their spots, squinting their eyes.
Boom!
The group of Martial Emperor's followers and disciples and more than 90% of the participants of the Selection of the Martial Emperor's disciples and followers looked extremely wretched. Suddenly, another explosion resonated in the air and an even more terrifying hurricane swept out.
This time, even the Martial Emperor's disciples were sent flying.
As for the others, their condition worsened. They were pale and bleeding profusely.
Some were even sent flying out of everyone's sight.
For a moment, other than the two people who created the storm, only Han Xue Nai remained in the center of the storm. Although the storm raged furiously, she remained unmoved and stable like a mountain.
"Barf!" When the group of Martial Emperor's disciples who were awfully pale managed to stabilize themselves, they heard the sound of someone throwing up.
They squinted and looked toward the center of the storm just in time to witness Martial Emperor Shi Qi throwing up blood. After he was done throwing up, his face turned horribly pale and the hand that was holding the seven-foot-long spear was trembling non-stop.
It was apparent that Martial Emperor Shi Qi had used the Quasi Royal Grade Spirit Spear in his hand earlier. However, he was still defeated in the end.
As for the white-clad little girl who stood in front of him with a short dagger, she was merely breathing a little heavily. Apart from the few drops of sweat on her forehead, she looked no different from before.
The difference in their strength could be seen from this.
"L-Lord Martial Emperor is defeated?" The group of Martial Emperor's disciples was stunned and baffled.
The Lord Martial Emperor who was like an undefeatable God in their minds had actually been defeated?
When the group of Martial Emperor's disciples was still stunned and the remaining people were still confused, Martial Emperor Shi Qi looked at the white-clad little girl with a pale face before he asked with dread, "Who are you exactly?"
However, Little White did not answer him. Instead, she merely asked nonchalantly, "So, do you still want us to give you an explanation and swear thirty years of servitude to you?"
Little White's pointed words were extremely unpleasant to hear. It caused Martial Emperor Shi Qi to turn even paler when he heard it.
It was like a slap to his own face!
A blatant slap to his own face!
This was everyone's thoughts.
At this moment, the group of Martial Emperor's followers and other people began to regain their senses. All of them were staring at the scene before them in confusion.
The owner of Lost Stone Forest, Martial Emperor Shi Qi, was defeated in this battle?
Moreover, he seemed to be injured as well.
"Just tell me, what happened to my Brother Ling Tian after he came to your Lost Stone Forest? Where's he now?" Han Xue Nai asked again as she looked at Martial Emperor Shi Qi.
