Chapter 145: It Really Hurts To Be Face-Slapped; The Wife Follows The Husband.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
One after another, divine rainbows arrived from all around the Continent.
In a short period of time, many great figures rushed and gathered around the mountain, no doubt having heard the astonishing news. It was as hectic and chaotic as could be.
There were so many that some even began to quarrel and fight with one another as numerous small skirmishes and battles simultaneously emerged from the massive crowd.
Then, for a moment, all beheld an enchanting brilliance that wove itself across the heavens. Various domineering weapons clashed against one other, putting on a magnificent spectacle for the onlookers.
Boom!
Large swaths of mountains and ancient trees collapsed as dust filled the sky.
“Long Teng? What kind of a joke is he? He should just wash his head, keep it clean as he waits for the Young Master Changge to collect it.”
A Young Supreme laughed, ridiculing the various creatures from the Ancient Immortal Continent without fear.
“Lord Long Teng’s power is beyond your comprehension! That man surnamed Gu will die today!”
Those in Long Teng’s camp fought back as well, resulting in a terrible and gruesome fight between the two sides. With crazed eyes and bloodied bodies, they slaughtered and murdered as broken bodies flew everywhere.
These groups of people here were mainly from two camps.
To the East were the native creatures of all the different races from the Ancient Immortal Continent.
A blond girl with glowing wings, a draconic elder, a sturdy behemoth with scales on his arms, and a gigantic man with towering horns.
They all possessed indifferent expressions along with strong Qi and vitality, crawling out from deep within the mountains to look coldly at the Young Supreme from the outside world.
On the West were equally powerful existences, headed by a group of Daoist Young Supremes, following the True Immortal Teachings. These included powerhouses such as Ye Langtian, enshrouded by a golden ring, and Wang Wushuang, covered in boundless mist…
These two stared coldly at the creatures from the Ancient Immortal Continent.
Thousands of people streamed into the open space, and the hushed murmur of the masses could be heard from time to time. Despite the fact that they knew they would be involved and entangled in the ensuing disaster, everyone still came to observe this major event.
After all, it was a battle so mighty it would shake the very foundations of the Ancient Immortal Continent!
The people’s gazes were fixed on the faraway mountaintop. A fearsome figure was shrouded in a suffocating aura with draconic runes all around, his aura alone caused the weaker cultivators to tremble.
He was Long Teng!
Behind him, the figures of his followers similarly stood silent and apathetic, like predators who had gone through thousands of battles.
Without a doubt, the power of the pinnacle False God Realm had manifested itself; he was really worthy of being called a developing True Dragon.
Everyone felt the terror of his oppressive force.
Ye Langtian and the others couldn’t help but change their expressions slightly at the tremendous pressure.
He was no pushover as tyrannical might became clear!
It was impossible for them to face Long Teng. At the moment, their gap in cultivation was simply too big.
“However, he doesn’t have the unfathomable feeling that Daoist Brother Changge exudes…” Ye Langtian shook his head slightly again.
Wang Wushuang, who was also nearby, had golden runes flashing in his eyes.
He also noticed the horror called Long Teng.
“I hope I’m not too late…”
In the distance, Gu Xian’er turned into a ray of Divine light, traversing the mountains at breakneck speeds. After a while, she saw an ancient plot of land.
From time to time, divine rainbows crossed over the ancient lands of the natives.
These cultivators and creatures had all flown toward the same direction, and it was clear that they were all headed to the site of the anticipated battle between Gu Changge and Long Teng.
She came from afar, sneaking through the crowds, afraid that Gu Changge might recognize her.
However, Gu Xian’er was soon disappointed.
Gu Changge had yet to show himself as not a single hair from his head could be seen.
She even suspected that, given Gu Changge’s villainous character, he might have played Long Teng like a fool and left him hanging there, treating him like a dancing monkey in the palm of his hand. It would not come as a surprise if Gu Changge was off somewhere else, insidiously scheming this very moment.
But of course, a guess was just a guess.
“Hey, that’s Big sister Mingkong’s white-jade chariot. . .”
Suddenly, Gu Xian’er noticed a scene in the sky.
Nine ancient beasts shaped like Divine Phoenixes pulled a jade chariot, galloping forward.
Seated high in the sky, the jade chariot sparkled with a multitude of colours. It was an extraordinary sight.
A vague and graceful figure could be seen amidst the fanfare.
Gu Xian’er recognized this as Yue Mingkong’s main method of transportation.
Gu Xian’er simply preferred to be alone. Thus, she didn’t go see Yue Mingkong after arriving at the Ancient Immortal Continent.
That being said, she was aware that when the Seventh Princess of the Sea King Palace issued the kill order, Yue Mingkong was one of the first to come to her aid. Unfortunately, she was held back by others.
Yue Mingkong’s kindness to her was different from Gu Changge’s. It was a kindness born out of sincerity and genuine care, not of false hypocrisy.
In the sky, divine lights continued to appear. This incoming war has attracted too many eyes.
Despite the fact that the older generation of Immortal Ancient Continent was unable to intervene in this matter due to the rules established by both sides, many Ancient Freaks still came to watch the great show.
After all… Long Teng represented the hope of the True Dragon Clan of Ancient Immortal Races.
“Is she Gu Changge’s fiancée?”
“The woman named Yue Mingkong?”
At this time, Long Teng’s eyes turned, as blinking stars revolved ceaselessly in his eyes.
He stared at the white jade chariot parked in the sky and looked at the figure in it with a hint of enthusiasm. His gaze seemingly penetrated the thick layer of curtains.
“How about leaving the one surnamed Gu and coming with me instead?”
A rare smile appeared on Long Teng’s indifferent face, as he looked toward the horizon.
His sentence was accompanied by a terrifying soundwave as if immortal thunder had descended from the heavens. The Heir of True Dragon Clan’s simple question caused many cultivators to half-kneel to the ground as their ears rang and their breaths hitched in their chests.
‘Horrifying!’
The expressions of some of the stronger cultivators changed dramatically after hearing those words.
‘Does he not know what kind of identity Empress Yue Mingkong possesses? In the outside world, she is the future female Emperor of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty. An indescribably lofty position!’
‘How brave this Long Teng is, daring to speak to her like that.’
Many arrogant Young Supremes glared at him.
Of course, some people understood that the hatred between Long Teng and Gu Changge was ultimately caused by Yue Mingkong herself.
‘The so-called ‘disaster and beauty are intertwined’, is exactly such.’
“I’ve seen many people who seek death, yet none are more fluent in courting death than you.”
At this time, an impossibly cold and indifferent voice came from the white jade chariot, like the sound of cruel Mother Nature, seeming to contain no emotion at all.
As if… the voice was speaking to a dead man.
Only Yue Mingkong knew the strange glint in her own eyes, however.
Long Teng’s ability to court death is indeed powerful.
She, too, had come to watch the show, but she didn’t expect Gu Changge’s response to be so fast. Barely any time had passed between the first spreading of those uncouth rumours and his verbal death warrant issued to Long Teng.
If she remembered correctly, Long Teng had a drop of rainbow-coloured True Dragon blood in his body.
The blood of a True Dragon that only appears after tearing off their hardest scales. It is an extremely precious resource and has many wonderful uses. It just so happened that she knew how to force it to appear, though Gu Changge probably didn’t know about it.
[PR/N: First make them fight and then steal Gu Changge’s loot]
“Feisty! I like it!”
Long Teng heard the remarks, but instead of being angry, he showed appreciation.
He likes women of this type.
The stronger they are… the more satisfied one feels when conquering them.
“Disgusting beast.”
Yue Mingkong’s eyebrows in the white jade carriage suddenly wrinkled in disgust.
She made her move.
Long Teng and his personality made her feel greasy and disgusted.
The Empress, unable to resist, attacked Long Teng before even Gu Changge had arrived.
Cleng!
Sword intent suddenly burst from the void, one after another like silver-white vines, slashing towards Long Teng. The ethereal might was cold and dazzling, taking the form of silver longswords!
Everyone was shocked, Yue Mingkong abruptly shot at Long Teng without making a sound.
Truly a sneak attack.
For a moment, in the void, a bright light bloomed.
Yue Mingkong’s powerful Emperor-grade Technique came to fruition.
Although she had broken through to the False God realm, her real cultivation level is still much weaker than that of the Heir of True Dragon Clan, Long Teng.
Nonetheless, she was not afraid at all.
Yue Mingkong also wanted to know the bottom line of Long Teng’s strength, so she threw out a strike to test him.
At this moment, a group of cultivators watched in awe as the light and rain flew, and… they vaguely felt the breath of the Great Dao as it permeated the space.
Perhaps for the first time in their life, the Young Supreme beings grew silent, solemn at the sight of Yue Mingkong’s attack, showing somewhat undignified and fearful expressions.
‘What immense strength!’
‘It seems that Empress Yue Mingkong’s true strength is far from simple.’
“How audacious! You dare attempt a sneak attack?!”
With one “disgusting” from Yue Mingkong, Long Teng’s face froze and his smile disappeared.
Even if he was in a good mood, being called disgusting in front of everyone by such a beautiful woman, where would he put his face in the future if he didn’t retaliate?
Especially since the other party dared to take the initiative to attack him.
One Gu Changge was enough, but unexpectedly, his fiancée was also the same as him!
Long Teng’s gentle expression disappeared.
“Before me, you ants have no chance of winning!”
With an expression of boredom and indifference, he directly chose to move his hands behind his back, harbouring a look of contempt.
Between his eyebrows, vast fluctuations occurred as a golden ocean manifested, like a tidal wave. It crashed and rumbled, facing Yue Mingkong’s move head-on!
An innate power like the raging sea, flowing forth from the void.
Even those in the True God Realm changed their expressions at this point, and they dared not to take the crushing move directly. This innate power was far too powerful, capable of annihilating any human body, no matter how tempered!
“No matter how strong Empress Yue Mingkong is, I am afraid she is not Long Teng’s opponent. This is a significant gap in cultivation that will be difficult to close.”
A stunned Young Supreme frowned, with eyes like torches. He stared long and hard at Long Teng’s technique, soon realizing there was no way for him to resist it, much less counter it.
Boom!
However, their following expressions were full of shock, giving birth to a sense of incredulity.
The indifferent and solemn look on Long Teng’s face froze as well.
A field of sword intent manifested, similar to golden lotus flowers blooming as they tore apart the sky piece by piece, with fluctuations that could shatter the Heavens.
Ripp!
As everyone saw a vision of a peerless female Emperor standing in the Heavens, fragments of lotus petals broke and scattered, bursting through the Long Teng’s golden ocean the next minute.
Her bearing was incomparably tyrannical and splendid.
“I admit that I may have slightly underestimated you, but know that I will not be so merciful anymore.”
With his attack blocked by Yue Mingkong, the expression on Long Teng’s face was slightly ugly and gloomy. An unsightly visage for one proclaiming to be the Ancient Immortal Continent’s best.
Whatever the outcome of today, his face had already been ruthlessly trampled on.
On a normal day, even the Ancient Immortal Continent’s top ten Young Creatures could hardly bear a single strike from him.
‘Didn’t sister say that Yue Mingkong’s strength only equalled her own?’
‘So just what exactly is this?’
“With your ability, I wonder… where did you get the confidence to provoke Changge?” At this moment, Yue Mingkong’s casual response seemed to stab at the heart of Long Teng.
From beginning to end, she never showed up, sitting unperturbed in the white jade chariot.
Yet the blow just now was of the highest calibre, shocking many native creatures.
The gathered Young Supremes were shocked too.
“My strength. . . is not enough to be Princess Mingkong’s opponent.” Although they were unwilling, they could only admit this fact and wave their flags in defeat.
Hearing Yue Mingkong’s following statement, though, made many people feel strange.
At that time, when Gu Xian’er was chased by the Seventh Princess of the Sea King Palace, she seemed to have told the Seventh Princess the same thing.
Didn’t Yue Mingkong’s words simply echo the same sentiment?
They show extreme confidence in Gu Changge’s strength.
[PR/N: We love to see a capable MC]
“You have succeeded in angering me.” Long Teng’s face darkened.
‘I needed to show off some powerful means now, thus the need to curb this ignorant woman’s arrogance.’
‘Provoking me repeatedly and spitting in the face of my continued courtesy, does she think of me as a sick cat instead of a terrifying tiger? Ridiculous!’
The followers behind him surged with bloodlust, their fierce pressure crackling like storm clouds.
At this time, his eyes were bone-chilling, staring in the direction of Yue Mingkong.
Her attitude was overbearing, and it was certain that if yet another unsavoury exchange were to pass, Yue Mingkong would instantly become the target of suppression as her enemies worked together.
“Hah! You have angered me as well, little ant…”
[PR/N: CALM DOWN EVERYONE IT’S HAPPENING!!]
From the empty void… a faint voice resounded across Heaven and Earth, alarming Long Teng and the many cultivators present. The most domineering tone caused their expressions to change as they all looked toward the sky at once.
Needless to say, this scene heralded the Lord’s arrival!
Boom!
A terrifying soundwave created numerous divine rainbows that swept across the sky as many cultivators took a deep breath, forcing down the intensity of their shock.
‘The scale of this is too scary!’
“Something’s wrong. . .”
However, Long Teng’s reaction was quick, sensing the subtle changes in the space.
His complexion morphed slightly. Terrifying runes flowed from his grasp, running amok all over his body before turning into a ferocious dragon armour to resist!
The void in front of him distorted and blurred.
A young man stepped out of it, his expression light and casual, as though he was out on a stroll.
A divine light loomed high above the clouds with an endless well of gravitic power beneath his feet… it was a profound revolution that surpassed the common laws and reached the level of altering Nature itself; it might be great enough to cover Heaven and Earth!
Boom!
The void trembled as if about to shatter.
Long Teng, who didn’t have time to react, had his stomach kicked in as his internal organs ruptured… spewing a mouthful of blood.
With a hint of unwillingness on his face, he hit the ground with a…
Bang!
Smoke and dust flew, mountains collapsed, and huge fissures appeared throughout the Ancient Land.
Gu Changge. . . has arrived.
“Wow. I told you to wait for your death, and you actually did! How obedient.” He let out a laugh that toed the line of mocking and playfulness.
At that same instant, Gu Changge raised his palm, conjuring various Runes upon it. Densely packed like falling raindrops, the runes evolved into imperceptible sword Qi!
A terrifying power manifested in the void as endless strength erupted.
A sea of runes blocked the vast expanse of space. Among them, star-shattering sword energy fell down, like a sinking red sun.
Puff! Puff! Puff!
The large mountain range facing him became a pile of dust, obliterated in an instant!
Long Teng’s followers all vomited blood and flew away from the blast in tatters. Some couldn’t resist the cruel blow and exploded directly in the all-consuming void.
A mist of blood splattered everywhere.
For a time, those who came to watch this shocking battle were stunned.
‘How unexpected. The so-called battle of the generation started off with Gu Changge kicking Long Teng to the curb in their first exchange.’
‘Sure enough, the age-old saying rings true: “pretend to be the most powerful and get the most poisonous beating.” ’
Gu Changge finally encountered an opportunity to face-slap, so he naturally had to cherish it.
“Tell me, how do you want to die?”
[PR/N: THE HYPE IS UNREAL!!]
He looked down at Long Teng, who was currently buried under the rubble of what were formerly mountains as he casually asked.
It was so casual that he seemed like he was merely asking his friend, “Have you eaten?”
“Master, what shall we do with her?”
Behind Gu Changge, a group of followers swiftly arrived with one of Long Teng’s people, a certain dragon-horned lady whom Yue Mingkong was quite familiar with.
After all, she deliberately let her go last time, intending to screw over Gu Changge.
However, the previously prideful dragon-horned lady now looked downcast and submissive, covered in blood with her tongue cut off, unable to make a peep.
On the way, she was obviously tortured quite severely by Gu Changge’s followers.
“This great gift will naturally be killed in front of Long Teng.” Gu Changge said lightly.
He also glanced briefly at Yue Mingkong.
‘I’ll deal with this guy first, then I’ll settle my account with you.’
Yue Mingkong guessed the meaning of his gaze yet still looked calm.
It was almost like she didn’t notice.
She didn’t believe Gu Changge could do much to her anyways.
Unfortunately. . . she really misunderstood Gu Changge this time.
Gu Changge had glanced at her just to make sure that she was unharmed.
However, he didn’t see anything wrong, so he asked instead.
“Are you alright?”
Yue Mingkong felt a little flattered that Gu Changge would care about her.
But, upon further thought, this was most likely just Gu Changge’s attempt at a cunning disguise meant to deceive the masses.
The iron-hearted Empress shook her head and coldly replied, “Don’t worry, Changge, I’m fine.”
She was moved by his words but she returned to an air of indifference not long after.
No one could discern truth from lies in Gu Changge’s statement, but she truly was fine.
Although Long Teng was strong, she was not weak in comparison.
Soon, many cultivators near the mountain finally recovered from the blast. While they observed this scene, they could only sigh in their hearts. The relationship between husband and wife is truly harmonious!
