Chapter 809 (1/2)
However, at that moment, Wu Yunyue saw the ferocity bursting forth from within the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor’s eyes very clearly. The sword gleamed with a distorted light that turned black without any warning. When the Blue Rain Hibiscus clashed with the black light, it did not put up any resistance and faded away maniacally. The sword seemed to pierce through the Demonic Emperor’s chest.
The ferocity in the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor’s eyes was clear for all to see. A powerful Destruction Energy burned from deep within his sword. He had absolute confidence that Wu Yunyue would not be able to block his blade. In truth, he was only feigning weakness in the previous battle. If Wu Yunyue had only launched a simple attack, perhaps he would have stuck to his plan and consumed Wu Yunyue’s absolute cultivation base before he admitted defeat. However, Wu Yunyue’s attack that was filled with killing intent had angered him thoroughly. He no longer cared about Huang Xingyun’s orders. He wanted to use this opportunity to defeat the Demonic Emperor with a blow. Judging from his Heavenly Emperor-tier cultivation base, once the longsword that was filled with a high level of dense Destruction Energy pierced through Wu Yunyue’s body, the Destruction Energy would cause Wu Yunyue’s body to explode. Not only would it destroy Wu Yunyue instantly, no trace of him would remain even with the protection of the Time Attribute.
A loud explosion reverberated clearly and loudly in the entire area. The entire Heavenly Snow Mountain could hear it very clearly. Then, a blood red light appeared in the sky as two black shadows descended from the sky causing the initially distorted light to scatter.
Boom! Boom! Two bodies were fiercely flung onto the peak of Heavenly Snow Mountain followed by a rain of blood that covered the skies.
Everyone was stunned. They could tell that the figure that had fallen down from the sky to the ground was the corpse of the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor.
His body was severed from his left thigh all the way to his right shoulder. It was severed — cleanly and magnificently. One could even see a dense aura of the Evil Attribute in the Heavenly Energy on the two devastated halves of his body. With a few dazzling techniques, he managed to destroy the tough and tenacious body of a Heavenly Emperor-tier powerhouse to the extent that the body was now beyond recognition.
‘What was going on?’ This was a question that everyone was asking. Even though Wu Yunyue previously had the upper hand, when the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor utilized Time Mirror Image to evade the life-threatening attack, he had managed to snatch back the upper hand.Even if he was unable to defeat Wu Yunyue, the victor should not have been decided in such a short time.
At this moment, Wu Yunyue was descending from the sky as well. At first glance, he looked completely unscathed. Only his middle finger on his left hand that was concealed in his sleeve was completely swollen. He would not be able to use it in a battle for a short period of time at least.
Even in death, the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor still had his eyes wide opened. His gaze was filled with disbelief. Wu Yunyue glanced at him coldly and increased the density of his overbearing aura.
Only Wu Yunyue himself knew what had happened. The deafening bang came from Wu Yunyue when he used his left middle finger to flick away the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor’s blade that was filled with Destruction Energy.
In the midst of dealing his crucial blow, the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor was flicked off by Wu Yunyue. He had concentrated all of his Heavenly Energy completely in that one blow. How could he have possibly anticipated that his own attack would be so easily neutralized? Naturally, he was also unable to evade Wu Yunyue’s counter slash and ended up with his body sliced in half.
Wu Yunyue looked at Zhou Weiqing. Both men had a momentary exchange, communicating with their eyes. Zhou Weiqing could roughly guess what had actually happened. Huang Xingyun, on the other side, stared dolefully at Wu Yunyue as if he could attack him at any moment.
The Demonic Emperor glanced at him with mild disdain. Just as he was about to say something, Zhou Weiqing was already next to him. He spoke apologetically, “Valley Lord Huang, I’m truly sorry. Our Vice Sect Master momentarily lost control and was unable to show mercy. Sigh, fights between Heavenly Emperor-tier powerhouses are indeed cruel! I ask that you do not take this to heart, Valley Lord Huang. It’s the Grand Tournament of Saint Lands after all. Death and injuries are unavoidable.”
Seeing the pitiful look on Zhou Weiqing’s face, Huang Xingyun almost gnashed his teeth in anger, “Fine. That’s a good one, Peerless Sect. Wu Yunyue, I hope you can keep going like this.”
Wu Yunyue grew calmer due to Zhou Weiqing’s arrival. He replied emotionlessly, “If you’re not satisfied, why not personally take the field. However, if you plan on facing me, you’ll need to get in line. Next!”
“Demonic Emperor, after you.” Naturally, it was the powerhouse from Blood Red Hell, placed behind Love Valley, who had entered the second round. Fen Tian sent a Heavenly Emperor-tier powerhouse as well. However, at this time, Fen Tian was frowning as he stared at the Demonic Emperor Wu Yunyue. His looked like he was deep in thought.
Undoubtedly, from the beginning of the Grand Tournament of Saint Lands, it was the Demonic Emperor Wu Yunyue from the Peerless Sect who had the most eye-catching performance. He is also the only one to pass the first round. Even though this was also directly related to Zhou Weiqing’s smoothly drawn lot, Wu Yunyue has also been able to defeat both his opponents in immediate succession and is currently the only one who has been able to win two fights in succession. Especially the recent round against the Love Valley Heavenly Emperor, where he won in a short period of time, fiercely issued a death blow, and raised the atmosphere of the Grand Tournament of Saint Lands into suspense.
Of course, Wu Yunyue may have delivered a powerful performance, but at least based on the current situation, the other four Great Saint Lands still found it all very acceptable. After all, Wu Yunyue was once a leader of the Five Great Saint Lands. In the previous Grand Tournament of the Saint Lands, he was always the last to emerge. It was normal to have a contestant with powers slightly higher than the rest. Besides, it was Yun Ruoyun of Love Valley in the first round who was an aberration, to have actually lost the match so easily.
