Chapter 9

Di Shis body tensed. A crushing feeling weighed heavily on his body, at the same time, seeing this visually perfect man smiling at him made his heart skip a beat. The contrast was giving him mixed feelings.

Who... are... you? He struggled to say.

Ji Xian raised an eyebrow brow as he grinned.

Just a hero rescuing a damsel in distress.

""

Di Shi didn't know what to say.

Not only he but the Ancestors and the Nether race were speechlessly looking at Ji Xian. They were questioning his identity while the Ancestors from the Southern Continent were happy to see him, but they wondered why he took so long to arrive.

Ji Xian sensed the weird atmosphere but didn't pay it any mind. He looked up at the sky and narrowed his eyes.

So many eyes on us right now.

With that, he raised a finger into the air. A blinding golden light flashed from the tip of his finger and expanded. Except for Xia Lihua who was currently unconscious, the eyes of everyone in the proximity turned red and burned after just a glance at the light.

They turned away but no matter where they turned it felt as though the light was everywhere. Finally, they put their hand up to their face to cover their eyes, and only then was the pain relieved.

---------------------------------

Upper World.

The sickly middle-aged man who was playing Go stood up unexpectedly, surprising the person in front of him.

I can no longer see the Mortal Haven World. He said with a frowned

Who was Di Shi talking to

The other factions in the Upper World who were also paying attention to the Mortal Haven World had also been caught by surprise. The World seemed to have vanished. To hide a World in the Upper World was hard, but not impossible. If a person of a high realm were to hide a planet, it would remain hidden as long as someone of the same or higher cultivation didn't come along to discover it.

Ji Xian cooly slicked back his long hair, removing the strands that were out of place while flashing a dashing smile at Di Shi.

I think its time to end this. From your halo, It doesnt seem like you can maintain your state for long. Throw everything you got at me so you can die without regrets.

The corner of Di Shis mouth twitched.

Where do you get your confidence from? I do not care who you are, or what you are. Your cultivation cannot be higher than the Holy realm.

Di Shis aura soared! The Ancestors and the Nether race were blown away. Ji Xian remained unaffected and continued to look at Di Shi with a smile.

The vein on Di Shis forehead bulged. Ji Xians smile irritated him!

The tall Ancestor who was carrying the unconscious Xia Lihua stabilized himself and flew over to the Sect Master of the Aether Sect.

Huo Honghui, who is that person? Where is the Guardian of the Southern Continent, Zhao Ping? He asked.

Guardian Zhao Ping died eleven years ago. This young man is our current Guardian, Huo Honghui replied

He looked at their shocked faces and shook his head.

Now is not the time to explain. Well talk after the Guardian wins, he said confidently before looking at Xia Lihua.

Turning over to an old man with white hair with a long beard wearing a white robe. He said, Bai Ming, help heal Guardian Xia.

The man named Bai Ming nodded and stepped forward. The rest of the people focus their attention back on the fight.

Di Shi conjured a stunning amount of black water into the sky. He formed a hand sign and it shaped into a hammer. The hammer was large enough to block out the sun. Di Shi slashed his hand and the hammer swung downwards. It shot down like a meteor and the space cracked as it dropped.

Ji Xians figure looked tiny underneath the massive hammer.

Raising one brow, Ji Xian gently swept his hand sideways. A thick amount of clear Essence emerged and knocked the hammer away. It flew a short distance before bursting into a rain of black water.

You used this move against Xia Lihua, cant you do something else?
