Chapter 474: Chapter 366: It’s fake, right!?

Hearing that feminine voice, Wu Xiaode quickly began recalling everything about Zhao Junyu.

At the bequest of his family’s Ancestor Spirit, he had given Zhao Junyu a push, and so Junyu had completed his Awakening.

— Why was he chosen and picked as the face?

He had three abilities:

1, Heart of stone; this allowed him not to be affected by any Charming Skill;

2, Element Detection "Wave": able to sense some arrangements made by the opponent in advance;

3, Mind Control: occupy the mind, control the body.

All three abilities were innate.

— How many people can awaken three fundamental abilities at once during their Awakening?

He could be considered among the best.

Now, only by taking it one step at a time could the origin of this matter be revealed.

The sky opened.

Amidst grand music, eight women dressed in colorful long dresses floated down, bowing to everyone in the council hall.

They said in unison, "We welcome the Saintess’s descent."

The Void then opened once more.

A woman dressed in a simple white Taoist robe floated over.

This woman looked ordinary, even excessively so, that standing in front of the eight women in colorful dresses, she seemed somewhat overshadowed.

The woman smiled and said with a clasped fist salute, "I am Lin Yutang, the Young Cave Master of the Demon Suppressing Cave, here specifically to propose marriage from within the Sin Prison."

She then pointed at her face and explained,

"I dare not reveal my true face because my natural beauty might cause various inconveniences."

The atmosphere grew rather somber.

No one responded.

The Emperor sat on the dragon throne, barely perceptibly shrugging his shoulders.

Natural beauty?

Having lived a life of extraordinary experiences, what hadn’t I seen? And you dare to claim beauty here?

Li Kunlun sneered.

— When I proclaimed myself emperor outside the Sin Prison, I had three thousand beauties in my harem; what kind of beauty have I not seen?

Wu Xiaode’s expression remained neutral.

The Charming Skill of the Enchanting Demon Goddess Skadi was the strongest, and her appearance was incredibly beautiful.

But setting aside the Charming Skill, it was Christina who truly possessed an otherworldly beauty.

— And that’s just discussing appearance.

As for whom I like, it’s Sister Lan.

Your claim of "natural beauty" really can’t gain people’s trust!

Wu Xiaode glanced at the Emperor.

There are many matters the Emperor might not be convenient to inquire about.

It might be better for me to take the lead and clarify the ins and outs of the situation.

"How is Zhao Junyu?"

Wu Xiaode asked.

"He is quite well now; once my presence here is settled, he can marry into my Demon Suppressing Cave," Lin Yutang said with a smile.

"Why did you injure his sister?" Wu Xiaode asked again.

"That was a misunderstanding; his sister had an issue during her Cultivation, and I helped her detonate her internal injuries in advance to prevent her from dying on the spot," Lin Yutang explained.

Wu Xiaode let out a cold laugh.

— If you truly helped her, why would you leave her unattended and take Zhao Junyu away directly?

"Go, bring Zhao Junyu to speak with me; if he truly wants to marry you, we naturally have no reason to obstruct," Wu Xiaode said.

Lin Yutang looked at him and then at Qian Mingkui and Li Kunlun standing behind him as well as the Emperor sitting on the dragon throne.

"The Emperor himself has not spoken... yet you’ve said so much. Do you think you can decide for their family?" she said with a smile.

Stirring up trouble!

A flash of disgust crossed the Emperor’s eyes.

This person hasn’t even married in and is already starting trouble; could Junyu actually fancy such a character?

"What Little Wu means is what I mean," the Emperor said indifferently.

No one else spoke, only watching Lin Yutang.

— Bring Zhao Junyu here to talk, or else all discussions are off.

Lin Yutang hesitated for a moment, then said warmly, "Junyu caught a chill yesterday, and he’s still asleep today. It seems he will need several days to recover before he can meet people."

That was a refusal.

Wu Xiaode felt a sinking feeling in his heart.

Injuring Zhao Zhibing, taking Zhao Junyu away forcefully, and still so arrogant...

"Do you think the strength of everyone here is on par with Zhao Zhibing?" Wu Xiaode asked.

Lin Yutang’s eyes brightened, and she bowed respectfully,

"If you wish to test your skills, I would be willing to accompany you; firstly, we are all Cultivators, and secondly, it would be good to see the family values of my husband-to-be’s family."

Wu Xiaode rolled up his sleeves and walked toward the empty space in the hall.

Lin Yutang understood he did not want to risk injuring the crowd and followed him with a smile.

They both stood at a distance of several tens of meters from the crowd.

"How do you wish to compete?" Lin Yutang asked.

"Are there any particular rules?" Wu Xiaode asked in return.

"There are Scholarly Duels and Martial Duels. In a Scholarly Duel, we do not use Soul Power, and it ends at the slightest touch; in a Martial Duel, Life and Death are disregarded," Lin Yutang explained.

"Either is fine. Please choose, madam," Wu Xiaode offered with a gesture.

Lin Yutang pondered for a few moments and then smiled, "Since we are to become in-laws and will be acting in this world, it would not be good to sour relations, so let’s go with a Scholarly Duel."

Wu Xiaode had a thought.

She spoke of acting in this world and of not wanting to sour relations.

Could it be...

That this so-called Saintess of the Demon Suppressing Cave intends to control the empire by using Zhao Junyu as a hostage, aiming for the descent of the Heroic Spirits eventually?

"The strong from other worlds will visit your world quickly for the sake of the Heroic Spirits..."

"...Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes..."

The warning of the Heroic Spirit echoed in my ears.

Ridiculous.

This came too quickly!

"A battle of words? Fine, come up and make your move," Wu Xiaode said with his arms crossed.

Lin Yutang gave him a look and remarked curiously,

"Although a battle of words does not involve Soul Power, my techniques have been passed down for hundreds of years from a sect. Why are you so overly confident?"

"Because defeating you is just too simple," Wu Xiaode said indifferently.

Lin Yutang was taken aback.

The eight women in colorful dresses behind her couldn’t help but cover their mouths and giggle.

This youth was too arrogant!

Lin Yutang also showed a faint smile, took out a folding fan, slowly unfurled it, and said softly,

"Don’t be so narrow-minded, as there are people beyond you, and a Heaven above Heaven."

"No need for idle talk, come on," Wu Xiaode said with an impatient look.

"Please defend against this move."

Lin Yutang held the fan to her face, revealing only her eyes, as her figure swiftly moved forward.

Wu Xiaode just stood there unmoving.

Seeing his haughtiness, and with members of royalty watching from the opposite side, Lin Yutang decided to use a trump card fan technique—

Fan Chop·Thousands of Mountains and Windswept Blossoms!

This was a secret skill passed down directly within the Demon Suppressing Cave, a technique only taught to the next head instructor, undefeated for thousands of years.

Even without employing Soul Power, it was not something an ordinary person could counter.

Once the move was made, the only thing visible was a whirlwind of flickering fan shadows encircling Wu Xiaode, leaving seemingly no room for him to dodge.

Lin Yutang had already started to say, "I acknowledge—"

Snap.

A light sound.

In an instant, all the fan shadows dissipated into nothing.

Lin Yutang’s body flew backwards, tumbling across the ground for seven or eight meters before struggling to her feet and standing once more.

She held her shoulder, her face full of astonishment.

Even the eight women in colorful dresses behind her looked shocked, as if they couldn’t believe what they had just witnessed.

"You..."

Lin Yutang pointed at Wu Xiaode with her fan, momentarily at a loss for words.

She hadn’t quite seen how it happened, when she was sent flying back by his punch.

Looking again at Wu Xiaode.

Wu Xiaode didn’t even wear boxing gloves; his hands had his thumbs tucked into his trouser pockets as he said in a languid tone,

"You haven’t mastered that move properly; there are at least two flaws. It isn’t worth my punch."

Lin Yutang, refusing to believe it, leaped forward once more.

This time, she drew out another fan with her other hand—

Both fans striking simultaneously!

The sky filled with images of fans.

Wu Xiaode narrowed his eyes and suddenly raised his hand.

Snap.

Another punch.

Lin Yutang was yet again sent retreating back through the air.

This time, she didn’t dare to press her luck any further.

Although they spoke of a verbal dispute, if the opponent didn’t play by the rules and suddenly used Soul Power, that last punch could have injured her.

"You wouldn’t listen, right?" Wu Xiaode said coolly.

The Human Emperor was the joint ruler of All Worlds in bygone eras, whose boxing technique was unrivaled across countless worlds.

After inheriting this lineage, Wu Xiaode put his life into perfecting his boxing, clashing with demons, Caijing, the Shangmo family, Siang, and others, one by one.

By now, his level of combat prowess had reached heights beyond measure.

The only pity was that his Soul Power couldn’t keep up.

—And now, someone dared to use a mere secret skill of the Cultivation World’s Demon Suppressing Cave against him?

He couldn’t be bothered to use even his most mediocre moves!

Lin Yutang was silent for a few moments before looking at Wu Xiaode and speaking,

"My master did indeed say that my technique is not fully refined—if I were to remedy these two flaws, how would you respond then?"

"I might need two punches," Wu Xiaode said.

Lin Yutang folded her fans and applauded,

"Excellent boxing, but it’s a pity my move requires Soul Power to unleash its true potential—otherwise—"

"Shall we have a martial contest?"

Wu Xiaode scoffed and said,

"We can, but I have something to say."

"Please," said Lin Yutang.

"You might believe Zhao Zhibing’s strength represents the standard of our world after clashing with her, but I must tell you—"

"If you strike again, the next punch will take your life."

"And one more thing."

"If you do not wish for your Demon Suppressing Cave to be razed to the ground, losing its lineage forever, then immediately return Zhao Junyu to me."

Boom—

An endless torrent of Dark Intense Flames erupted from him.

At the same time.

A sharp long sword quietly emerged from the Void, placed at Lin Yutang’s throat.

Two terrifying bronze Demon Gods, each emitting a fearsome aura, suddenly appeared from the Void, one on each side, encircling Lin Yutang and her subordinates.

A skeletal dragon also flew back and forth in the vault of the great hall, occasionally hiding in the Void before suddenly emerging again, as if ready to strike at any moment.

Lin Yutang was dumbstruck.

She looked at the two fearsome Demon Gods, then at the Death Dragon soaring in the air, and finally settled her gaze on Wu Xiaode.

This can’t be real.

Why... can the people of this world...

Be so powerful?
