Chapter 169: A Clash of Divine Might
by xennovelBoom—!!!
A colossal foot, entirely forged from crimson radiance, descended!
It was like a bare five-toed foot stepping down from the heavens, as if its boot had been discarded!
Like thunder crashing down to earth!
It struck Xue Dufu—a Grandmaster who had fully awakened his martial will—with a force like a pillar, driving him violently into the ground!
Boom, boom, boom—!
The blue brick pavement of Jingguang City suddenly exploded and sank deeply, shattering hundreds of meters around as bricks and stones flew into the air!
A gigantic footprint was imprinted in the depression, while a swirling curtain of dust rose all around!
Spiderweb-like cracks rapidly spread across the surface!
Rivulets of searing heat burst from the fissures, as if boiling water were screaming in fury!
In that moment, the whole of Jingguang City fell into a deathly silence.
Earlier, Xue Dufu’s thunderous roar had awakened the entire city in the dead of night.
Many powerful figures were roused by the commotion.
When word spread that the Underworld’s Ma Mian had chosen to assassinate Little Prince Ji Haihui…
Everyone felt a chill down their spine!
This is madness!
The Underworld has lost its mind!
After all, he is the son of Little Prince Ji Haihui and King Ping Luan Ji Mo Li. Who else but the Lie Shen Pavilion would dare to attempt such an act?
Yet, Ma Mian made his move.
Using a mystifying technique, he launched an attack from a thousand feet away.
Alas, his normally infallible assassination method failed this time!
Because standing by Little Prince Ji Haihui’s side was a Grandmaster!
Under the Grandmaster’s protection, the mysterious Underworld Ma Mian ultimately failed his attempt.
Soon, many witnessed Ma Mian’s frantic, desperate flight.
He was caught in an instant by Grandmaster Xue Dufu, who struck him down with a hatchet-like blow.
But no one could have foreseen…
After being cut down, Ma Mian left not a drop of blood behind—he simply dissipated into black mist!
False!
That wasn’t Ma Mian!
It was a decoy body!
Illusory techniques employing decoy bodies are common—in fact, Li Che once obtained the [Xuan Si Liu Wood Form] from the Fei Lei Xu Family, a splitting divine art.
A fake Ma Mian… serving as bait!
Nearly every powerful fighter immediately suspected as much.
Then, a giant foot was seen descending from the heavens!
Everyone was utterly shocked; their bodies froze as if paralyzed, with dry throats from astonishment.
The Patriarchs of Divine Appearance and the Void Cultivators from the Four Great Families all felt a shiver down their spine!
An unbelievable thought surged in their minds!
Ma Mian was merely bait.
The Underworld’s true target…
was the Grandmaster!
“That’s… Divine Gang?!”
“Another Grandmaster?!”
Seeing that colossal display of swirling, almost tangible aura forming a giant foot’s shadow, many were visibly moved!
……
……
Inside the City Lord’s Residence.
City Lord Su Huai Li’s eyes widened in shock.
“No… This doesn’t seem right… It doesn’t look like a Grandmaster’s Divine Gang—capable of merging one’s aura and martial will to manipulate the very fabric of the heavens and earth!”
Su Huai Li’s eyes sparkled as his primordial spirit expanded its awareness, his heart pounding with urgency!
The Underworld’s target…
was not Little Prince, but rather…
Grandmaster Xue Dufu!
Who would have thought!
The tightly shut doors burst open.
Little Prince Ji Haihui emerged in splendid attire, frowning; the bruises on his face had faded considerably.
Sensing the energy of a Grandmaster duel, his eyes gleamed with excitement.
“Underworld?”
“What kind of riffraff would dare target King Ping Luan?”
“How dare they try to assassinate me like the Lie Shen Pavilion?”
Ji Haihui’s expression grew grave.
Their target was the Grandmaster.
But if they succeeded in killing the Grandmaster, Ji Haihui… would be in grave danger!
Yet their sensed aura didn’t match that of a true Grandmaster—not the fierce, dominating martial will.
Still, they possessed the power to trample a Grandmaster underfoot!
Their strength… was unquestionably formidable!
Even if not a Grandmaster, they were undoubtedly top-tier experts!
Six Black Armor Blood Guards had the Little Prince impeccably protected.
They never relaxed their guard, even though the ambush was on Grandmaster Xue Dufu!
……
……
Scorching…
Blistering…
The air suddenly heated up to an unbearable intensity, as an invisible surge of aura and martial energy seemed to affect everyone’s mind!
The swirling dust was torn apart by fierce gusts of energy!
Everyone saw it clearly!
Amid the howling winds, a hulking figure appeared, hovering in the air with a Divine Monkey Mask and a tilted head!
It did not possess the mountainous physique of the Ogre.
Nor was it as slender as Ma Mian.
Instead, it was powerfully built—as if its muscles had been forged and twisted into coiled ropes.
“Underworld… Divine Monkey!”
Outside the city…
Figures raced back—these were the warriors who had scouted the fallen Jin Lie Men outside the city!
Among them were Li Qingshan and Lin Xiu.
The two watched from afar, frozen in shock.
They never expected that after Divine Monkey decimated Jin Lie Men, he would now cause trouble for a Grandmaster…
No, how dare he mess with a Grandmaster?!
And in broad daylight…
How can he be so brazen?!
Lin Xiu drew a deep breath, his eyes filled with both envy and newfound understanding—as if absorbing profound wisdom in an unconventional way.
Meanwhile, Li Qingshan pounded his chest in frustration.
Ogre, Ma Mian, and Divine Monkey ambushing a Grandmaster…
Even Li Qingshan couldn’t handle that!
A trap to kill a Grandmaster…
One misstep and they’d be beaten to death!
At the moment the Grandmaster’s explosive energy collided, high-level figures throughout Jingguang City sensed it and reacted.
In the Temple Guardian Division, Governor Xie Jing—who had just returned from the Third Prince’s Bizarre Temple—furrowed his brows and appeared atop a building in the division’s courtyard.
He scanned the horizon, observing intently.
Imperial Watch.
The Monitor sat atop the treasure tower, playing a forlorn erhu amid drifting snow.
Lu Yao stood with his hands behind his back, curiosity sparking in his eyes.
Atop Golden Light Peak.
Both Nan Lihuo and Wang Kuyu had been stirred into action.
“Underworld Divine Monkey?”
“Working with Ma Mian as bait—their target is Grandmaster Xue Dufu?”
Nan Lihuo’s heart trembled in disbelief.
The Underworld… has allies this formidable?!
Wang Kuyu floated, his robes swirling and his dust whip in hand, remarking, “They’ve got nerve, but if they think slaying a Grandmaster is as simple as that, they’re sorely mistaken.”
Wang Kuyu shook his head.
A Grandmaster can truly contend with Divine Primordial experts—it’s not just talk.
……
……
Under the watchful eyes of various factions,
Xue Dufu, impaled by a massive bloodstained foot as if planted like a rice seedling, his face shifting in anger between blue and red!
“You damn monkey!”
“You’re asking for death!”
Xue Dufu roared in anger as Divine Monkey pounded him into the ground, letting out a piercing howl!
In an instant, his terrifying martial will radiated from his body, creating an overwhelmingly powerful field!
Striking silver gusts of Divine Gang sliced through the air, further breaking the already shattered ground!
Bang—!
With his one arm clenched, Xue Dufu unleashed a fierce punch that slammed into the massive foot of Divine Monkey, which had manifested from an unknown source!
The foot was sent soaring into the air.
Xue Dufu’s body convulsed, launching him upward from the ground.
While airborne, he underwent an incredible transformation, as if unleashing all his hidden spirit and vitality in an instant!
His jet-black hair whipped about, seemingly coated in silver, while his eyes boiled with murderous intent!
His slender one-armed frame suddenly swelled impressively!
In that moment, his impeccably flawless Grandmaster physique was fully revealed!
Gone was the feeble, one-armed withered figure; now he stood as a robust, upright middle-aged man, with silver Divine Gang crackling around him like lightning!
Almost condensing into tangible armor!
His rough hemp garment bulged and then split, revealing flesh forged like molten black iron!
Thick muscles trembled visibly, with scorching, crimson blood bubbling beneath!
Grandmaster!
His vital energy had condensed into a priceless elixir within his body!
Subjugated by his martial will!
Once unleashed in battle, its impact would be terrifying—as if a compressed spring were ready to burst!
Once the restraint was lifted, he would soar skyward!
The more he held it back on ordinary days,
the more explosive and liberating his battle burst would be!
Bang, bang, bang…
Rocks around him shattered into countless fragments and dust that scattered like bullets!
Thud—!
Behind Li Che’s Divine Monkey Mask, his fiery eyes narrowed!
Channeling his spirit, he stomped down hard with a massive, swirling foot!
Thwack!
However, this time, he failed to crush Xue Dufu into the ground—Xue Dufu’s one arm, brimming with terrifying power, had its flesh twisted like thick, coiled steel rods!
It forcefully resisted the descending foot strike!
“Grandmaster…”
Li Che murmured.
Then a wild grin broke across his face!
So strong!
A crushing stomp transformed into a swift, lateral kick—reminiscent of a soccer strike—as his foot slammed into Xue Dufu!
Off-balance, Xue Dufu was kicked away, his body spinning rapidly through the air!
Yet, with a twist, Xue Dufu slammed his legs into the ground; his Divine Gang erupted, enveloping him as he shot upward!
That seemingly ordinary hatchet suddenly shimmered with countless silver patterns!
Its handle lengthened while the blade grew thicker, heavier, and wider!
Its momentum became even more crushing!
It transformed into an enormous crescent blade, weighing over a thousand jin!
With his one-armed grip, he unleashed a resounding burst of blade light that cascaded across the night sky!
His martial will merged with Divine Gang, forming a fearsome field spanning ten zhang around him!
It surged like a streak of light, racing toward the hovering Divine Monkey!
So powerful!
Li Che felt the suffocating pressure permeating the air!
That was the aura of a Grandmaster!
Before his transformation, merely facing a Grandmaster’s aura would have overwhelmed him!
But now…
Li Che’s brow shimmered faintly!
The Chess Sage Dao Fruit pulsed within the Cosmic Chessboard.
Activated by his divine perception, Li Che snapped his fingers repeatedly, shattering nine Lingyuan Temple Spirit essences!
A surging torrent of Temple Spirit divine essence rushed into his limbs and bones, fueling his Tower Ascension state!
Boom—!
The bamboo hat atop his head burst open, its golden strands flying wildly like a cape in the wind!
The Nine Luminary Divine Weapon—the Liuxue Stun Spear—once slung over his neck, suddenly shot up like a bolt of bloody lightning!
Some of his swirling aura detached and wrapped around the Stun Spear!
It transformed the spear into a bloodstained long staff, dramatically elevating its status!
At his feet, a burst of mystic aura turned into a blood cloud, dragging his body forward at incredible speed!
With a low hum, it tore through the sky!
Like a blood-red meteor, it fearlessly hurtled toward Xue Dufu!
“Is this… the power of the Temple Spirit?!”
The now younger, sturdier Xue Dufu sneered coldly.
“So it turns out to be a wretched being empowered by the Temple Spirit—no wonder he dares challenge a Grandmaster in his weakened state!”
“But even if you’re bolstered by Temple Spirit power, so what?”
“You’re no Grandmaster—you have no idea of the gap between you and one!”
“A Grandmaster is…”
“His body is flawless, his inner organs honed to perfection—he is peerless inside and out!”
Yet before Xue Dufu could finish his sentence…
Divine Monkey had already stepped onto the blood cloud and appeared before him; his bloodstained long spear coiled like a crimson serpent with overlapping shadows like a peacock’s display!
Hundreds of staff silhouettes overlapped!
Countless streams of energy burst apart!
“Are you out of your mind? Enough with all this endless crap—it’s driving me insane!”
Hun Yuan Qi Tian Gun!
Martial Saint Technique!
The swirling staff shadows roiled like a cascading Milky Way, plummeting from the heavens!
Smashing down headfirst!
“Looking for death!”
Xue Dufu’s eyes turned cold, filled with murderous intent, as he brandished his crescent-blade hatchet!
At that moment, his martial will and Divine Gang erupted simultaneously!
Countless strands of Divine Gang intertwined, slicing the air into hundreds of blades of light that rained down on Divine Monkey!
Each shard possessed formidable power—capable of slaying even a martial master of the post-Grandmaster realm!
Clang—!
As the blade light approached, the deafening, cloud-splitting slash reverberated across the heavens and the earth!
Countless staff silhouettes shattered as if cleaved apart by unstoppable blade light!
The dense Divine Gang slashes covered Divine Monkey, seeming to dismember him piece by piece!
The blade light sliced through the air at breakneck speed, making it boil and emit a groan of unbearable strain!
Grandmaster Technique!
Lonely Desert Smoke Blade!
A desolate yet domineering blade intent erupted amidst those slashes!
A Grandmaster’s ultimate technique—once refined beyond the Master realm—transforms into the pinnacle of combat!
Its power surges dramatically through transformation!
In fact, there is no fundamental difference between a Master Technique and a Grandmaster Technique.
However, the Martial Saint Technique is markedly different from both!
Xue Dufu, a Grandmaster under Ji Mo Li, naturally practiced Martial Saint Technique—but he wasn’t yet adept, having only begun cultivating his Divine Gang.
Thus, the Grandmaster Technique was his true specialty in combat!
Boom—!
Countless surges of swirling aura billowed up and collided with Xue Dufu’s Divine Gang blade light!
They were absorbed and swallowed by the barrage of slashing energy!
Divine Monkey swept his long staff aside and charged mightily forward!
Hun Yuan Qi Tian Gun!
Now, with Li Che’s second transcendence of the Dragon Elephant Vajra Dao Fruit and a blessed moment of enlightenment…
he reached the pinnacle of mastery in one fell swoop!
Though his fragmented Martial Saint Technique was obscure and hard to master, once perfected, its power was utterly terrifying!
Swords clashed with staves!
Clang clang clang—!!!
Explosive sounds rang through Jingguang City like thunder!
The calm air erupted into turbulent gusts, rippling like a disturbed stream with wind that scattered in all directions!
The entire Long Street was engulfed by roaring winds and raging currents!
Some nearby divine cultivators even felt that their divine essence struggled to manifest, suppressed and suffocating!
A battle of Grandmasters!
A genuine, high-stakes clash between Grandmasters!
Xue Dufu, brandishing his one-armed crescent blade, moved like a solitary pillar of smoke rising from a vast desert!
The scorching, boiling aura interwove with colliding staff and blade flashes, blanketing the ruined blue stone pavement with swirling dust and debris like a theater curtain!
……
……
Staff shadows!
Blade light!
Divine Gang!
Radiant aura!
For a moment, the dark night transformed into day, as the fierce, boiling aura raised the temperature so abruptly that even the falling snow melted into rain—a sudden winter downpour!
Yet before the rain could reach the hundred-zhang radius of their duel, it quickly evaporated into vapor!
Within Jingguang City.
The onlookers were dazzled, their hearts rocked with intense emotion!
Roaring gusts, Divine Gang, blade light, and swirling aura intertwined relentlessly, assaulting everyone’s eyes!
Amid the torrent of blade light, the Underworld Divine Monkey, wielding a bloodstained long staff, unleashed countless staff shadows like blooming flowers around him!
He forcefully blocked Grandmaster Xue Dufu’s crescent blade light!
Lu Yao and Wang Kuyu, the Divine Primordial experts, were profoundly shaken.
Their formidable primordial spirits, enveloping the heavens and earth, left them in utter awe!
Because…
They realized that Divine Monkey had not reached the Grandmaster realm!
He was only at the post-Master level!
Yet his body was extraordinarily powerful—even with brute strength that seemed to surpass the Grandmaster realm, his staff blow shattered Xue Dufu’s crescent blade light!
Lu Yao was visibly shaken: “Unparalleled in power! His natural iron bones and sheer sinew strength are extraordinary!”
Such a man, he had only seen in Daocheng among pure martial warriors who pursued only physical combat!
Only by dedicating every ounce of spirit to martial perfection, unburdened by divine distractions, can one achieve such unparalleled raw strength!
Yet Lu Yao clearly sensed the power of divine essence in Divine Monkey!
Not to mention the bizarre, unceasing swirling aura—but the burning, unleashed Temple Spirit divine essence emanating from Divine Monkey…
That was divine essence!
“The Underworld’s origins… are extraordinary!”
“Where did this Divine Monkey even come from?”
“To forge such an unbreakable body at the Master realm is a rarity across the entire Lingnan Path.”
Lu Yao frowned.
As the deputy Monitor of Daocheng’s Imperial Watch, he was well-informed and keen in insight.
Yet at this moment, he couldn’t quite discern the origins of this Divine Monkey.
It seemed as if…
he had literally sprung from a rock!
……
……
The Divine Monkey’s eyes sparkled as he unleashed the perfected Martial Saint Technique—Hun Yuan Qi Tian Gun—with breathtaking mastery.
Simultaneously, nine fragments of Temple Spirit divine essence ignited, flooding Li Che with even greater power!
His divine strength even reached the level of a Primordial form!
Moreover, owing to the Temple Spirit divine essence, his rank was unrivaled—equal only to a Temple Spirit!
Unless the opponent was also a Temple Spirit!
Thus, on the level of divine essence, Li Che was suppressing Xue Dufu!
“The Grandmaster… is truly formidable!”
“If I relied only on my transformed flesh, I’d be evenly matched with him—killing him or beating him to a pulp… would be very difficult.”
“Not enough…”
Behind the Divine Monkey Mask, Li Che shook his head.
Then—!
After a collision,
Divine Monkey stepped on the blood cloud and rapidly distanced himself, while Xue Dufu, one-armed and brandishing his crescent blade, widened the gap; his powerful Grandmaster physique glistened with beads of sweat.
This fierce altercation was no easy matter for Xue Dufu—he was drenched in sweat!
“How can this be?!”
Xue Dufu gritted his teeth, his eyes trembling with shock.
This Divine Monkey…
Clearly not yet at the Grandmaster realm, yet he used his incredibly forged flesh to defy the might of a Grandmaster’s aura!
Truly… it’s over the top!
Of course, the Temple Spirit divine essence also exerted pressure in the realm of divine power.
But…
After all, he was a true Grandmaster!
“Kill!!!”
Xue Dufu could not tolerate this outcome!
With all eyes upon him, he was caught in a bind—unable to back down if he did not defeat his opponent.
His Grandmaster martial will might fail to fully manifest, diminishing his deterrence in Jingguang City.
Xue Dufu suddenly surged forward a step.
Veins like coiled dragons bulged on his neck; his face flushed blood-red as his inner energy boiled to a furious peak, as if every vessel beneath his skin were about to burst!
He pushed his entire Divine Gang to its absolute limit!
The ultimate force of Grandmaster Technique and transcendence!
Vroom—
In the next instant, as if engulfed by rolling yellow sands and a solitary desert plume, a domain-like force descended to ensnare Divine Monkey!
A domain…
It was the absolute killing force of a Grandmaster’s domain!
This strike…
carried an indomitable will to kill!
Almost transforming into tangible, blazing flames!
It was a full-throttle, fiery assault!
……
……
Li Che, his face hidden behind the Divine Monkey Mask, ascended the tower as his Temple Spirit divine essence ignited.
Gripping the Nine Luminary Divine Weapon—the Liuxue Stun Spear—now enveloped in swirling aura,
his eyes flickered with dancing flames, shimmering subtly.
That terrifying domain seemed poised to tear everything apart.
“The Grandmaster… truly is formidable.”
Fortunately, Xue Dufu’s divine cultivation had not yet reached the realm of the Divine Primordial!
Otherwise, a Grandmaster combined with Divine Primordial prowess…
Li Che would have no chance to even land a dent, let alone kill Xue Dufu.
But now…
Behind the Divine Monkey Mask,
Li Che sighed.
“What a pity…”
His sigh echoed abruptly!
His one-handed muscles bulged and veins throbbed like dragons, and as Xue Dufu, wielding his crescent blade, attacked, his body tensed sharply.
A surge of extreme peril overwhelmed him!
In that instant, an intense aura enveloped him completely!
Then, before his eyes, Divine Monkey suddenly erupted with countless flashes of brilliant golden light!
A dark golden chess piece hovered before Divine Monkey.
It was suddenly crushed by him!
Rumble!
At that moment, the earth cracked open and the blue stones shattered into dust!
Beneath Divine Monkey’s feet, the ground over several zhang sank by over a hundred feet in an instant!
Golden!
A dazzling, resplendent gold!
As if a brilliant golden armor had enveloped the Divine Monkey!
The Golden Heavenly King Temple Spirit Chess Piece!
Not just the monkeys and their kin.
Then…
Here comes the Golden Heavenly King!
Now, under the second transcendence of the Dao Fruit, Li Che underwent a complete metamorphosis.
He felt ready to endure the full might of a Golden Heavenly King chess piece!
Puff, puff, puff!
His flesh cracked in many places, bursting into a bloody mist!
Yet Li Che’s spirit soared higher with every beat!
Amid the swirling aura,
a single stomp!
His golden armor, along with his flowing, golden-highlighted hair, resembled a cloak of pure gold!
He stood like a golden divine general, his feet poised upon celestial clouds!
Vroom—!
A humming sound.
A crimson divine staff slammed forcefully into the blue stone pavement, unyielding in form.
Meanwhile, the Golden Divine Monkey landed and stepped forward!
His long spear, encased in swirling aura, bent to its extreme limit!
It was as if…
a divine archer was drawing his bow!
Thwack—!
The explosive sound echoed loudly.
But on the rebounding divine spear, the Golden Divine Monkey seemed to have collided with space itself, vanishing into the void!
Not even one’s primordial spirit could detect him!
This is bad!
Xue Dufu’s hair stood on end.
He hadn’t disappeared—it was simply moving too fast, beyond perception!
Outside the range of sight!
Bang—!
Countless shockwaves shattered as the Grandmaster’s domain—formed by the fusion of martial will and Divine Gang—was sliced as smoothly as molten butter by a scorching knife!
The Golden Divine Monkey reappeared before Xue Dufu.
The overwhelming pressure of a Temple Spirit’s rank left Xue Dufu nearly unable to move his divine aura!
His golden eyes burned with a smoky brilliance, like fragrant mist cascading down!
With his fist clenched, the surging energy seemed to shatter in an instant!
At that moment, Li Che did not deploy the Martial Saint Technique—Hun Yuan Qi Tian Gun.
Instead, his muscles roared and his flesh burned as his dragon sinews and elephant bones trembled!
His fingers curled into a tight fist!
Like an elephant swinging its trunk, he forcefully whipped out!
In that split second as his arm whipped out,
the countless gusts, divine essence, surging energy, and martial will before Golden Divine Monkey were all shattered!
They seemed to transform into a vacuum!
With his one-armed grip on the crescent blade, Xue Dufu fell into a daze—as if he saw a mythical true dragon flick its tail and an ancient giant elephant raise its trunk!
Vast, boundless, unmatched!
Such a fist technique…
such a technique!
It was the perfect style for this Divine Monkey, as if born for him!
“What the hell is this?!”
“A self-created Martial Saint Technique?!”
“What kind of monster?!”
Xue Dufu suddenly snapped back to reality, utterly shocked, only to see that the Golden Divine Monkey’s arm—like that of an ape—had swung toward his face!
There was no time to draw his blade… no time at all!
A heavy, slow-swinging crescent blade couldn’t keep pace!
He couldn’t keep up…
He couldn’t match this new form of that damned, Temple Spirit-empowered monkey!
The Six Divisions!
This Temple Spirit divine essence…
is of the Six Divisions level!
Madman!
Aren’t you afraid of being completely overtaken by the Six Divisions’ Temple Spirit and reduced to a cursed guardian corpse?!
Even if this damn monkey’s body is peerless, how can it possibly bear the power of the Six Divisions’ Temple Spirit?!
At that moment, a terrifying barrage of punches struck at Xue Dufu’s heart!
The hand that had gripped the crescent blade suddenly let it go.
His loosened arm whipped back in defense, blocking with a sweeping motion!
Thwack—!!!
The punch slammed into his arm!
Xue Dufu’s sturdy Grandmaster physique resonated as if iron were being crushed under a dragon-elephant’s weight!
Then, a terrifying shockwave instantly overwhelmed everything!
His remaining arm suddenly exploded—flesh and blood flew as his bone was shattered!
And the Golden Divine Monkey, relentless, followed with one punch after another!
His shaking arm unleashed a series of devastating punches infused with ultimate techniques!
A dazzling array, like a hundred flowers in bloom!
Xue Dufu’s arm was continuously battered with seven crushing blows!
Finally…
It was utterly smashed to pieces!
At the moment his arm shattered,
his clenched fist suddenly spread its fingers as a roaring gust transformed into a palm!
“Shut your damn mouth!”
With a resounding smack…
a solid slap struck Xue Dufu’s cheek!
Xue Dufu was stunned.
Thud—!
A figure, arms empty, howled in anger as it was sent flying several dozen zhang through the swirling blood mist!
It finally slammed heavily onto the ground of Long Street.
The impact carved a crater in the pavement like a small meteor crash, with countless shattered stones flying like bullets!
Amid the billowing dust,
Xue Dufu’s half face was swollen and bleeding; his eyes burned with rage, his body shrouded in a blood mist!
Damn!
He wasn’t just slapped.
His Qian Kun Jade… had vanished too!
That cursed monkey not only thumped and slapped him, but even stole his Qian Kun Jade in the process!
That fucking monkey!
And Xue Dufu still couldn’t figure it out.
Why…
Does this Divine Monkey want to kill a Grandmaster?!
Has Xue Dufu ever crossed this monkey?!
He probably never imagined…
that this monkey wants to kill him
simply because he shouted ‘daughter’ three times at the peak of Golden Light Peak!
A trivial matter so insignificant that even a Grandmaster like him could barely recall it.
And this fierce battle was merely a father venting his fury because his daughter had been wronged!
How dare you shout at my daughter!
Even if you are a Grandmaster!
Indeed.
I’ll crush you!
Smack—
In the deep pit, Xue Dufu roared in anguish, his eyes glaring furiously.
He got beaten by a monkey!
And even robbed by a monkey!
Then…
A shock that rattled his martial will spread from his eyes!
His other arm…
was violently shattered!
His arm was gone…
He lost his only arm!
He’ll die…
Maybe he will.
He will die!
