Chapter 2006: Flashing of Blades, Shadows of Swords! (1/2)
Edited by: Michyrr
”You… I have no idea what you're talking about,” An Yaluoshan somewhat frantically said.
He truly was a little panicked!
Wang Chong could see Dragon Qi?
How was that possible?
Didn't Gao Shang say that only the True Dragon Son of Heaven and the Qi observers who had gone extinct during the Qin-Han period could see it?!
Swish!
An Yaluoshan misstepped in his panic, and he was struck by Wang Chong's vicious Sword Qi on his shoulder. But there was only the sound of tearing silk as the cloth at his shoulder was torn open. Despite being struck by such fierce Sword Qi, he was completely uninjured. It was as if that attack had run into some invisible barrier.
”You still want to play the fool in front of this king? I let you escape two years ago, so I might as well kill you today and end the problem once and for all!” Wang Chong coldly said.
Fury of Rhino and Elephant!
Wang Chong artfully turned and unleashed his third attack.
The move was the Fury of Rhino and Elephant in the War Dance, but in reality, it was Wang Chong's Life Execution.
This was an extremely dangerous attack, so fierce that even a Great General would find it hard to block.
Bang!
An Yaluoshan was struck by the attack and sent staggering backward, but he remained unharmed.
Wang Chong finally frowned at this. The Art of God and Demon Obliteration was the most lethal of his techniques, and it had only gotten stronger through training and refinement. Even if it was suppressed by the Power of the World, seventy percent of its power should have still been extremely formidable.
An Yaluoshan did not have the strength to take the attacks unharmed.
A ritual tool!
Wang Chong suddenly realized. He quickly scanned An Yaluoshan's body and soon spotted black rings that An Yaluoshan was wearing on the thumb, index finger, and ring finger of his right hand. They were simple rings made of some unknown material.
An Yaluoshan wore a jacket and puffy pants, and his midriff was exposed. There was no place to hide anything, and the only suspicious point was the three rings on his hand.
Cry of the Rhino and Elephant!
Wang Chong continued to follow a set path, stepping to the Kan position, crossing the Li position, and then turning his sword around to slash at An Yaluoshan.
Bang!
The air shrieked as the sword descended, and even the skies above the Pavilion of Petal and Sepal were torn open, creating a long and straight fissure several dozen feet long in the air.
Upon confirming the source of An Yaluoshan's strength, Wang Chong decided to show no more mercy.
”Ah!”
Everyone cried out in alarm upon seeing this frightening attack, stunned by the power of Wang Chong's sword!
Bang!
An Yaluoshan panicked in the face of Wang Chong's attack, finally unleashing his hidden energy. He punched with his right hand, and Stellar Energy exploded from the three black rings to block Wang Chong's attack.
A gigantic explosion ripped through the pavilion, shaking the ground slightly with its force. Meanwhile, the officials and foreign dignitaries had long ago been struck dumb.
What performance? This was clearly a battle to the death!
”Your Majesty, this…”
Next to the throne, the old eunuch glanced hesitantly at the 'Sage Emperor'.
There were so many officials and foreign emissaries present, but two important officials of the empire were engaging in open battle right in front of them. This was far too inappropriate.
”Let them continue!”
The reply left the old eunuch dumbfounded.
The 'Sage Emperor' stared at Wang Chong and An Yaluoshan, not even blinking.
His expression was cold, his voice even colder.
”Did you not hear? The King of Foreign Lands is performing for Us the War Dance of the Qin-Han period, a traditional dance of generals in the Central Plains. An Yaluoshan is performing for Us the whirling dance of the Hu. Both of them have ample reasons. What reason have We to stop them or refuse their offerings?!”
As a member of the imperial household who had received a traditional education, 'Third Son Xuan' had almost instantly recognized Wang Chong's War Dance. This was why he had not tried to stop it.
Kill, then! We will wait for you!
