Chapter 244: Chapter 197: Strong and Xuanwu Measures

Translator: 549690339

“No matter who you are, don’t think about taking away my power!” Xuanwu fell to his knees, his face twisted into a fierce expression.

His wide black robe had been torn to shreds, and the bulging green tendons on his exposed skin. He appeared to be struggling against some invisible force.

It wasn’t until now, after the deep blue patterns covering his body had faded, that Xuanwu’s true appearance was revealed.

He looked like an ordinary middle-aged man.

Aside from his somewhat imposing size, there was nothing remarkable about him.

The ground beneath him was collapsing inch by inch, unable to withstand the torrent of great strength.

Suddenly, “No… NO!”

Thump!

Xuanwu fell to the ground again, convulsing on the ground.

He stretched his sinewy, muscular arm forward, as if trying to grasp something.

But in the end,

Xuanwu couldn’t achieve his goal.

His fierce expression gradually turned to despair.

Finally, only infinite hatred and anger remained.

“Whoever you are!”

“If you dare take away my power, I will make sure you don’t die a natural death!”

Like a ghostly howl from the depths of Hell, his cries echoed throughout the underground cave.

As for the bystander White Tiger, he just silently stood to one side, watching Xuanwu’s performance.

He had no intention of speaking up even now.

What’s more,

A smile briefly appeared on White Tiger’s lips, seemingly taking pleasure in Xuanwu’s misfortune.

However, in addition to his “sympathy” for Xuanwu, White Tiger was also a little surprised by the situation.

Even as one of the Four Saints of the Holy Sect and holding a high position, White Tiger had never seen an event like what had happened in the past half-hour unfold during his many years of cultivation.

Xuanwu, who had just broken through the Divine Beast Breathing Technique to Perfection and successfully acquired a significant amount of authority power, had now lost all that power directly.

White Tiger had seen the power of authority disappearing from Xuanwu right before his eyes.

As for the reason,

He couldn’t understand, nor did he see where the power of authority had gone.

According to White Tiger’s speculation,

It might be because Xuanwu’s “crooked methods” had brought about a backlash from the power itself.

“What a shame, Xuanwu.”

“The Sect Leader finally gave you a chance to prove yourself.” “With your current strength, I’m afraid it’s difficult to accomplish.”

Saying this,

White Tiger prepared to leave Xuanwu’s cave.

The Holy Sect Leader rarely had any contact with the outside world, and the cave where he secluded himself was very well-hidden and remote.

White Tiger planned to take advantage of the fact that no one knew about Xuanwu’s situation yet, to report it to the Sect Leader first.

Perhaps… the mission this time could fall to him.

The thought of the Holy Sect Leader made a fanatical gleam flash in White Tiger’s eyes.

As far as White Tiger was concerned, the Holy Sect was just an organization on the verge of extinction.

With the Tide Rising Period now upon them, both the Martial Arts Association and the Wu’an Bureau were increasing their power day by day.

And the Holy Sect’s manpower came from those who had committed crimes and escaped the Wu’an Bureau’s clutches.

Such organizations would be completely wiped out sooner or later.

But… the Holy Sect Leader was different.

Only those who had witnessed his methods firsthand could understand just how terrifying his strength was.

Regardless of the fate of the Holy Sect,

As long as he demonstrated his value and followed closely the footsteps of the

Holy Sect Leader,

He would definitely… not be wrong!

However, Just as White Tiger was about to leave the cave,

“Wait!”

The voice of Xuanwu came from behind.

But White Tiger had no intention of stopping. Having lost his power of authority,

Xuanwu could barely be considered a strong person,

But he was no longer fit for the seat of the Four Saints,

He could at best match the strongest one or two out of the Twelve Holy Envoys.

White Tiger had no interest in talking to such weaklings.

“I still have a chance to get my power back!”

“It hasn’t disappeared!”

“I can see it, I can sense it – it’s been taken away by someone!”

Stomp!

White Tiger stopped in his tracks. Looking at the hand that gripped his ankle, A flash of coldness filled his eyes. “Let go.”

“I’m only saying this once.”

As the words rang out,

The surrounding stone walls began to clang with the sound of metal clashing,

Sparks flew,

It was as if sharp swords were striking the stone walls continuously.

“As long as you help me regain authority,” “From now on, you and I shall become one—”

Before he could finish,

Without seeing any movement from White Tiger,

A cold light suddenly flashed in the dark cave. A severed arm flew across the air,

Fresh blood gushing out in an instant.

The severed area of Xuanwu’s arm was perfectly smooth,

You could even see the bones and blood vessels inside.

After cutting off Xuanwu’s arm,

White Tiger simply walked forward as if nothing had happened.

Xuanwu stared at White Tiger’s receding figure, his face full of hatred and unwillingness.

But… White Tiger was his last chance.

If he didn’t rely on him,

With his current strength, he couldn’t cope with the person who had taken away all of his power.

If he was lucky, he might be demoted to one of the Twelve Holy Envoys, and continue to contribute his remaining strength to the Holy Sect.

If not…

From now on,

There might be no place for him in the whole world.

With that thought in mind,

Xuanwu’s mind raced rapidly.

Watching White Tiger walk further away,

But he couldn’t think of any reason to ask White Tiger for help.

Stomp.

Stomp.

The footsteps grew distant,

Xuanwu’s heart sank deeper into the abyss.

“White Tiger!”
