Chapter 949: Who Dares To Touch My Brother?
Happiness came too suddenly!
Luo Tian almost couldn’t handle it as the frequency of his heartbeat was the same as the last time he saw Yi Yunmeng’s half-naked body when her clothes slipped off. Everything was inconceivable and fleeting, like a dream.
Luo Tian quickly opened up the system interface to look.
He had to make sure this wasn’t an illusion and was, in fact, reality.
Item: Hulk Transformation Card
Card Use: Permanent
Transformation Time: 300 seconds
Transformation Cooldown: Ten days
Description: This transformation is a system reward and can be used permanently. The system will no longer issue Hulk Transformation cards.
Apart from the cooldown being too long, everything was perfect about it.
Luo Tian was someone who was easily satisfied. “It’s fine if the cooldown is a bit long. I can still use it around three times a month. Just these three times are enough for me to sweep away all obstacles! I finally have the first thing I can rely on in the Ancient World!”
Encountering an expert and I’m not their match?
No problem!
This daddy shall transform by using a Hulk card!
Once the Hulk goes berserk, that kind of strength, dominance, and rage is something that no one can withstand!
Luo Tian was relieved after looking up the information.
He looked up and around the plaza.
There were over ten thousand people in this plaza, and they were all staring at Luo Tian with dull eyes. Eyes filled with confusion and disbelief like a God had suddenly appeared before them. This included Bai Lei, the thirteen sect leaders, and Dongfang Shuo inside the Gambling Pavilion.
Even Yi Yunmeng hiding amongst the crowd was the same.
She considered herself as someone quite familiar with Luo Tian, but she couldn’t see through Luo Tian right now. She thought Luo Tian could only make breakthroughs by killing demonic beasts and didn’t expect he could make breakthroughs after killing people, too. She thought Luo Tian wouldn’t be able to resist Bai Xuan’s attack and definitely never imagined Bai Xuan would be instantly killed by Luo Tian.
This...
Her brain was about to short-circuit.
Even if her IQ was ridiculously high and her comprehension was ridiculously high, she was still dumbfounded by Luo Tian right now.
Instantly killing Bai Xuan, a Four Elements 3rd ranker? Too strong!
It was fine being strong, but Luo Tian actually broke through after killing him!
He was now at the Four Elements 2nd rank!
Is there such a cultivation method?
Breaking through just like that? The Ancient World is a middle realm where cultivating to the next realm was harder than breaking through to the great perfection realm in the lower realms. But Luo Tian broke through twice in a blink of an eye... Wasn’t breaking through a little too easy for him?
How is this possible?
“Clap~, clap~, clap~...”
Dongfang Shuo suddenly started clapping in the Gambling Pavilion before giving Luo Tian a thumbs up. It was as if it was Dongfang Shuo himself that had vented all his grievances. He then shouted, “Domineering!”
His words broke the silence in the plaza.
The plaza exploded into a cacophony of voices like a thunderstorm.
“Too strong! I have never met such a magnificent power! Luo Tian, from today onward, I am your loyal fan! I love you!”
“You’re a freaking man! What the hell is the use in you loving him?! I’m a girl! Luo Tian, I love you! I want to marry you! I want to give birth to your children!” A woman with a waist as thick as a water barrel shouted.
“Instantly killing Bai Xuan? This Luo Tian is truly remarkable!”
“How did he do it? Bai Xuan clearly blocked his ball of flames, yet how can he be killed just like that?”
“You don’t know, right? You don’t know who Luo Tian is? He’s a super expert from the Tianxuan Continent! It’s the Tianxuan Continent, for god’s sake! How many years has it been since they had an expert at the great perfection realm enter the Ancient World? The last person has already flown to the Ancient Realm of the Gods.”
“The Tianxuan Continent?”
“I have never heard of it before. What kind of realm is it?”
Waves of discussion came one after another. Various rumors and legends were spoken of.
Some people even said that Luo Tian had entered the Ancient World a while ago, and he had suppressed his own cultivation. He was just unsealing his cultivation realm right now.
Another group of people were saying...
“Even though a dueling stage has its own rules, would the Bai family let that person off after killing a person from the Bai family? Especially when it was a steward? Today’s matter will probably be known by the entire Bai family by tonight. This is something that hurts the dignity of the Bai family, so do you think they will let it go just like that?”
“That’s right! This kid is strong, but he doesn’t know how to lay low. Following Bai Xuan into the Bai family is the dream of countless martial artists. But he rejected him out in public like he wasn’t giving the Bai family any face. And then he goes ahead and kills Bai Xuan. At this point, he has fully offended the Bai family. Does he think he can continue living after today?”
There were other groups of people saying...
“So what if Bai Xuan was killed?”
“Does he think he can live long if he didn’t kill Bai Xuan? The yuan energy backlash from taking a Heavenly Abstruse Pill hasn’t started yet, so let’s see how he’s going to handle that. The stronger one’s cultivation, the stronger the backlash. It is very difficult for Luo Tian to not die.”
“The backlash from the Heavenly Abstruse Pill is extremely strong, so there’s no way he can handle it.”
The backlash of the Heavenly Abstruse Pill was indeed very severe.
Luo Tian didn’t look up the attributes of the Heavenly Abstruse Pill before taking it. But he would still eat the Heavenly Abstruse Pill without hesitation if he knew what he was in for. He has always been a person who would fight it out if he wasn’t willing to comply, and it didn’t matter if the opponent was much stronger.
What no one expected was that the backlash Luo Tian was going to experience had disappeared the moment he leveled up.
Leveling up allowed him to completely recover from all injuries.
It was an unexpected surprise that the backlash from the Heavenly Abstruse Pill was destroyed before it even started. Otherwise, Luo Tian would be experiencing pain similar to having a million ants biting him inside and out.
Bai Lei walked onto the stage and looked at Luo Tian. He couldn’t help but sigh as he softly said, “Such a good seedling... It’s a pity that... sigh~...”
Upon walking up to Luo Tian, Bai Lei said, “I have personally seen what happened today. Bai Xuan died on the stage because he was inferior to his opponent. The Bai family will not pursue this matter. Don’t worry; no one in the Bai family will give you a hard time over it.”
He had to do this, or else the reputation of the Bai family would be tarnished.
These words were spoken from Bai Lei’s heart.
Luo Tian had already used the Heavenly Abstruse Pill. Even though he made a recent breakthrough, he still wouldn’t be able to handle the backlash from the Heavenly Abstruse Pill. Even if Luo Tian manages to survive it, he would still end up as a cripple. At this point, continuing to pursue retribution for killing Bai Xuan would make the Bai family look petty.
Luo Tian cupped his hands and said, “Thank you!”
At this moment, a figure in white flew down from the Gambling Pavilion.
It was Dongfang Shuo.
He politely smiled at Luo Tian before looking at Bai Lei. “Luo Tian is my brother. Whoever dares to touch my brother, I, Dongfang Shuo, will be the first to not spare him.”
His voice wasn’t very loud, but everyone in the plaza clearly heard it.
Everyone’s expression changed as they were dumbstruck once more.
Bai Lei hid his gloomy expression. Dongfang Shuo’s words were clearly directed at him and at the Bai family. It meant that Luo Tian had the Dongfang family behind him, so whoever dared to touch him would die!
Luo Tian turned to say with gratitude, “Thank you.”
But his gaze was not on the stage but continuously searching through the crowd.
