Chapter 761: The Oriole Behind

“Hmph...”

Hundreds of meters away, a muffled groan escaped Ye Qing’s lips as blood bled out of his eyes and nose. His head pounded like someone was hitting it with a jackhammer.

It was because his demonic thought and his sight had been destroyed by the punch.

Ye Qing forced himself to withstand the pain though. He reached out with his demonic thought again and perceived the fist intent permeating the air.

“This is the second punch of the ‘Three Origin Hammers’, ‘Break Hammer’.”

Murong Xianxian smiled when she saw Ye Qing’s persistence. “If ‘Suppression Hammer’ is the hammer that suppresses everything, then ‘Break Hammer’, as its name implies, is the hammer that breaks it all. There is nothing that can remain intact under its power. It will shatter the four cardinal directions, split heaven and earth into two, and sever even yin and yang.”

“To put it in more secular terms, ‘Break Hammer’ is the technique that breaks all Magia, secret arts, energies, living things and more. ‘Break Hammer’ returns it all to Primal Chaos.”

Despite listening to Murong Xianxian’s explanation, Ye Qing did not stop trying to perceive the fist intent in the air. Although his demonic thought crumbled every time it made contact with it—”Break Hammer” was the technique that destroyed everything after all—and the damage done to his mind and the mental pain were no joke, he did not relent.

Painful it might be, he knew that this was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. If he missed it, he might never have it again.

He had seen with his own eyes the power of the Dark Overlord’s “Suppression Hammer” and “Break Hammer”.

“Suppression Hammer” could suppress everything including transient things like time, space, yin and yang, and “Break Hammer” could break everything such as Magia, secret arts, energies, living things and more.

Each punch was magnificent and unique. There might never be another like them ever again.

He wasn’t so arrogant as to think he could grasp the two punches, of course. He was no Li Hentian with a one-of-a-kind talent for martial arts. However, if he could grasp even just a smattering of it, then his fist mastery and martial arts would benefit significantly.

“As its name implies, the essence of ‘Suppression Hammer’ is the word ‘suppress’. When executing ‘Suppression Hammer’, one should strive to suppress the five phases and yin and yang.”

Incredibly, Murong Xianxian’s words slowly drew Ye Qing into a trance. It helped him immensely in understanding the fist intent around him.

Then, a three hundred meter tall two-horned ghoul who was covered in yin fire stepped out of the sky. Every time it took a step, a dull impact that sounded like a gong beat would erupt.

A large, magnificent palace was sitting at the top of the ghoul’s head, and sounds of music and dances could be heard from within. Since the entrance was open, they could see countless naked women singing, drinking and pleasuring each other inside the building.

At the center of the palace was a large bed, and lying on the bed was a man so handsome and beautiful he was practically a woman. He was hugging two women with both arms and drinking a cup of fine wine. It sure looked like he was having a great time.

In fact, he wasn’t a man. He was dressed like a man, but everyone could tell he was really a woman.

When the ghoul reached the group of five, it finally came to a stop. The woman on the bed slowly accepted another cup of wine from her attendant before sitting up. She looked down on the group of five and smiled. “Thank you so much for finding the Central Wu Earth Hall for me, all of you.”

The woman’s voice was soft, smooth, and charming like the willows in the spring breeze of March.

“Who are you?” Sakyamuni Myriad Shadows asked with an icy, murderous look on his face.

“Who else? They’re obviously the sneaky bastards from the Ghost Tower of Fengdu,” Madman Chu interrupted before the woman could answer. “Who are you? Are you the owner of the Ghost Tower?”

He shook his head and corrected himself right after saying that, “No, you can’t be. I’ve seen the owner of Ghost Tower before. He’s a worthless fatty and definitely not female. Hmm... are you the real owner of the Ghost Tower? The one that’s manipulating things behind the scenes?”

“They all say that Madman Chu is a reckless, impulsive man with more brawn than brains. I guess the rumors aren’t all true after all,” the woman replied smilingly.

“They also say that womenfolk are as shortsighted as they have long hair, and it would seem that the rumors are definitely true. Only an idiot would fully believe a rumor!” Madman Chu sneered. “You’re quite the bold one, aren’t you? You dare to play the oriole against me?”

“You speak as if a coward could ever play the oriole,” replied the woman while twirling her cup uncaringly. “Should we discuss the terms of your surrender now? If you surrender, I may consider letting you serve me!”

“Serve you? As what? Your boytoy?” Madman Chu crossed his arms and jeered. “You’re a ghost, bitch. I would sooner fuck a disease-ridden prostitute than the likes of you.”

“If you won’t accept my kindness, then so be it.” The woman did not get angry despite his provocative taunt. She turned her attention to the others and asked them with a smile, “What about you guys?”

“A mere ghost dares to threaten us? You are in over your head, girl!” Sakyamuni Myriad Shadows scoffed.

They might all be injured, but that did not mean that they were easy pickings in the slightest.
