I Can See Your Combat Power
Chapter 1419 - Chapter 1419 Chapter 696 Surprise_2

Chapter 1419: Chapter 696: Surprise_2 Chapter 1419: Chapter 696: Surprise_2 Ever since making peace with Longxi, the Evil King Palace urgently needed a great victory to prove its own strength and the ruling power of the sect.

This time, if they could successfully repel Wuji Mansion at Diancang Mountain, it would no doubt be a timely rain for the swaying reputation of the Evil King Palace.

Seeing Duan Longcheng on this side seem happy as if he had locked in victory, the two mocked vice commanders of the Wuji Guards merely looked at each other and smiled.

“Big brother, did you hear that? The Young Palace Master thinks the Evil King Palace is certain to win this time!”

“Third brother, big brother heard it, let’s not talk for now, let the Young Palace Master be happy for a while.”

“Mm, I’ll listen to big brother, I’ll stop talking!”

The two vice commanders of the Wuji Guards echoed each other in perfect harmony, then stood in the void, looking as if they were watching an exciting drama.

This air of confidence made the originally full-of-confidence Duan Longcheng somewhat puzzled, but after carefully sizing up the forces of Wuji Mansion, he saw they were all familiar faces.

“Don’t pretend to be calm.”

After confirming it again and again, Duan Longcheng, convinced that Wuji Mansion had no chance of turning the tables, said irritably, “Wuji Mansion has had numerous encounters with the Evil King Palace over the years, you should understand that with your current forces, you have no chance of winning against me. Better leave with some dignity rather than be humiliated!”

“Big brother, did you hear that? The Young Palace Master thinks he holds the winning ticket, should we…”

“Third brother, keep your cool!”

Tong Zhenshan waved his hand at his brother and then looked at Duan Longcheng with particular pity, sighing deeply, “Let the Young Palace Master be happy for a while longer, it’s only polite.”

“Alright, big brother!”

“Concocting some pretentious mystery!”

Duan Longcheng said displeasedly, “With just you two brothers, what kind of storm can you stir up?”

“Big brother, shall we just tell him? The Young Palace Master seems quite pitiable.”

Tong Zhenhai said sympathetically, “After all, they’ll find out soon enough…”

“Third brother, hold back.”

Tong Zhenshan, acting the part of a big brother, waved his hand coolly, “This kind of surprise, the Young Palace Master should discover it himself.”

Duan Longcheng, who was gritting his teeth in anger, was provoked and was about to order the Evil King Palace’s experts to launch a strong attack.

Just as the two sides were about to clash, Tang Luo, who was standing in front of the Spirit Realm Gate, could no longer sit still.

Tong Wuxie had handed him the jade token because he trusted him. If Tang Luo did not possess this token, he would naturally be happy to see the two major forces fight it out first.

But now it was not possible, since he was prepared not to join under Tong Wuxie, he could not casually accept this extraordinary kindness.

Especially since the two vice commanders of the Wuji Guards might think that their own Grandmaster was in the Spirit Realm, and if there were too much disturbance outside or someone sent a signal, he could rush back immediately.

In reality, Tong Wuxie and Xiao Jinlin have already gone who knows where, and more importantly, the Wuji Grandmaster definitely could not return anytime soon.

Same-level powerhouses contesting with Spirit Arts, and the opponent is an Earth Spirit Body capable of perfectly controlling Spiritual Power, maintaining an unbeaten record in such difficult wagers was already an advantage thanks to possessing a pair of eyes that could see the flow of Spiritual Energy.

Wanting a quick victory was simply a pipe dream, so Duan Longcheng’s speculation was correct, if they really started now, the Wuji Guards would only be driven away in shame, and might even suffer casualties.

In that case, even if the Longxi Alliance truly acquired Longyuan later, their entanglements with Wuji Mansion would remain unresolved.

Tang Luo did not want to see this kind of situation, but both sides entered the scene at loggerheads, with no sign of considering him at all.

As if he, a living person, was ignored and could not find an opportunity to speak, until now, when the two sides were about to take action, he couldn’t help but shout out loudly.

“Stop!”

The sudden booming voice like a bell drew the attention of both sides, and Tang Luo, holding up the jade token, said to the Wuji Guards’ brothers Tong Zhenshan and Tong Zhenhai, “The Wuji Grandmaster is away on business, the two commanders should remain on standby where they are, waiting for Grandmaster Tong to return.”

“Who are you?!”

Tong Zhenhai looked at the token in Tang Luo’s hand and said displeasedly, “How did the Grandmaster entrust such an important Wuji token to you?”

“You don’t need to know who I am.”

Tang Luo’s wrist lightly twisted, and the jade token shot toward the hand of the speaking Tong Zhenhai like an arrow released from a bowstring, he said indifferently, “I have delivered the message, and the token has been returned. If the two commanders still wish to engage with the Evil King Palace, please be my guest!”

After finishing his words and returning the token, Tang Luo quietly stepped back, once again assuming the uninvolved stance of a door god.

However, the receiver of the token, Tong Zhenhai, was far from happy and turned to his elder brother with a long face, “The news has been leaked by this brat, now both we and the Young Palace Master have no element of surprise!”

“There’s still talk of a surprise!”

Tong Zhenshan sighed, “Better think about how to hold out until the Grandmaster returns. Didn’t you see the Young Palace Master and Grandmaster Duan with their gloomy faces, brimming with murderous intent?”

Upon hearing Tang Luo’s words, both Duan Longcheng and Duan Siping’s expressions soured greatly, especially after hearing the title of the Wuji Grandmaster and seeing that Wuji token, they felt as if they were in some ridiculous ‘screwed by a dog’ situation.

What you fear most, comes.

If there was a list of the least desired people to encounter in the competition for the Minor Spiritual Realm, the name of Wuji Grandmaster Tong Wuxie would undoubtedly be at the top.

The Wuji Grandmaster was only a step away from the Human King, in terms of accumulating Spiritual Power.

This was a universally acknowledged fact in the martial world of Xiehe; in terms of martial arts attainment, the gap between Tong Wuxie and other grandmasters was not a matter of imitation but of class.

In terms of combat strength, the title of the Unbeaten Grandmaster said it all. Such a master, both theoretically and practically mighty, was indeed disconcerting.

At the very least, up to now, Tong Wuxie had steadfastly held onto his unbeaten title, with no Grandmaster from any of the sacred lands stepping forward to refute it.

Even Duan Siping, an old-guard Grandmaster of the Evil King Palace, couldn’t help but feel a headache upon hearing that name.

“Wasn’t Tong Wuxie in seclusion to break through to the King Realm? How could he appear at Diancang Mountain to compete for the Minor Spiritual Realm?”

The Young Palace Master Duan Longcheng quietly asked the Grandmaster beside him, “Could this be an excuse cooked up by the Tong brothers to scare us off?”

“It’s unlikely.”

Duan Siping responded telepathically, “The Minor Spiritual Realm is likely only incidental; it must be the Yun Family’s Human King lineage that has drawn Tong Wuxie here.”

“For that baseless rumor?”

Duan Longcheng frowned, “If the Yun Family truly had the Human King lineage, they wouldn’t have been chased like stray dogs by the Xiang Family.”

“Tong Wuxie obviously doesn’t know about these things.”

Duan Siping shook his head, “Given his appetite for special types of Spiritual Power, his desire to inspect Yun Zu’s lineage is quite normal.”

“It’s sheer stupidity.”

Duan Longcheng cursed inwardly, feeling that the Evil King Palace had been facing misfortunes everywhere in recent years.

The Young Palace Master of the Evil King Palace, who once cooperated with the Xiang Family, had clashed with experts from the Yun Family, noticing that although their techniques far exceeded common families, they were only on par with ordinary sects, with clumsy joints between moves evident.

It was like some kind of incomplete art, then recklessly continued by some third-rate martial researcher.

Such a force could never possess the lineage of the Human King, so the Evil King Palace was primarily after the Minor Spiritual Realm from the start.

But who would have thought such a rumor would lure the monstrous Tong Wuxie out from Wuji Mansion.

Now, Duan Longcheng faced only two options: advance or retreat.

Ever since the fall of the Evil Immortal King, the Evil King Palace had completely lost any means to deal with top-tier grandmasters.

Although there were several old grandmasters in Evil King City deeply immersed in seclusion, hoping to break through to the Human King realm before their Spiritual Power waned.

This also meant that the Evil King Palace had to be constrained during major disputes, as no one knew if these old grandmasters would enter spiritual decline after a large battle.

It was for this reason that the Evil King Palace had no choice but to negotiate peace with the Longxi Alliance, as the alliance’s high combat spirit implied an unacceptable loss for the Evil King Palace.

But that was because the Longxi Alliance had clearly displayed a mad posture of mutual destruction, and with a mysteriously powerful Fire-Stealing Grandmaster at play, the negotiation had to be fast-tracked.

Yet now, it was just a minor dispute, and not even Tong Wuxie himself had shown up; was the Evil King Palace supposed to let a grandmaster, a titled powerhouse, and dozens of Martial Ancestors flee in disarray just because of one name?

A surge of devilish fire ignited in Duan Longcheng’s heart, feeding off the injustice and burning ever more fiercely.
