Chapter 108 The Identity of the Man in Black (1/2)

The night passed so slowly. All the geniuses who participated in the party yesterday did'not sleep till the dawn. When the sun finally rose and the golden light spilt into their rooms, they slowly opened their eyes, stopped cultivating, and walked out of the room to the martial field early.

They were the first people to come. They didn't talk, but just looked at each other and slowly nodded. They were in the same mood. They couldn't let go what happened yesterday, and at the same time, they felt guilty to Wang Bugui the other two. Soon after, Feng Tianming arrived as well with his Scarlet Heaven Sword. He stood beside them, quietly waiting for the other people.

After two full hours, a lot of people arrived. They were startled that those geniuses came here so early.

Then, some other geniuses including Jin Zhan, Wu Kuang and Xiao Fengyi also arrived. They were shocked to see such a situation where everyone, except for those geniuses, was discussing something. Therefore, a small discussion emerged in their own group as well. After a while, Wang Bugui and his brothers arrived with the liberal cultivators.

Then the five geniuses walked side by side to the group of those geniuses. Lyu Hao stood firmly with his double-bladed halberd on his shoulder, Zhao Changge with his dragon gut silver spear, Yu Wude with the Formation Breaking Sword, Chu He with his jade flute, and Wang Bugui with his extremely powerful aura. They all looked at the palace without expression.

”What happened? Why do all of them held their weapons?”

”The geniuses who came here first were also in a ready-for-fight state. It's strange!”

”The competition is already over, isn't it? Is there any other battles?”

Many cultivators were discussing puzzledly. After 15 minutes, the Sect Leaders and elders of all the sects arrived as well. However, the Headmaster of Shushan and the master of Palace of Hundred Flowers Hua Mengchen were all with a gloomy face.

Even Leng Shuangrong, the Headmaster of the Sect of the Nine Heavens and the Jingchan Divine Monk were in a bad mood. They slowly entered the palace, and some other headmasters had felt something wrong.

Gu Xiaoyao opened his folding fan in his seat, covered his face with it, and leaned to Hua Mengchen beside him, asking, ”Sister Mengchen, what happened to you. Why you looked unhappy?”

Hua Mengchen swept her finger, and her spirit mind carrying a message passed into his mind. After he understood what happened, he immediately jumped up and angered, ”I'll kill him! Humph...”

Hua Mengchen frowned, put her hand on his waist, and pinched him heavily. Gu Xiaoyao began to wail and begged in pain, ”Chenchen, stop! I won't say anything again!”

Hua Mengchen withdrew her hand. Then, Gu Xiaoyao turned to the headmasters and elders who were staring at him, explaining. ”Sorry, I just wanted to ease the tension. Don't look at me, and never mind.”

Then he sat down and secretly communicated with Hua Mengchen through spirit mind. The other headmasters and elders were very puzzled, but they couldn't intercept the message, because they held the similar cultivation base to Gu Xiaoyao and Hua Mengchen.

Soon after, Leng Shuangrong stepped out of the palace, and uttered toward all the cultivators, ”Everyone, be quiet please. I have something important to say now. You must have noticed that some of the geniuses are abnormal today. It is because something happening last night. There is actually a scum in the cultivation world!”

She snorted and played a video with a swept of her hand. No matter the headmasters, the elders, or the cultivators, they were all shocked and outraged. Even if it was only a video, it was still striking, and made them angry.

The man in black who came to assassinate Wang Bugui was at least in the medium stage of the Sage Realm, which meant the strength gap between him and Wang Bugui was so big, including a realm and two stages. Wang Bugui, Feng Tianming and Chu He were just in the Void Returning Realm. And among them, only Wang Bugui was at the peak stage of the realm.

The other geniuses and the liberal cultivators seemed to have been poisoned to sleep. Therefore, only the three were able to fight against the man in black. However, because of the huge gap of their strength, they couldn't hurt him even if they had displayed the forbidden arts.

Only Wang Bugui had caused him a skin injury at the risk of his bones and veins being broken. Unless Leng Shuangrong didn't appear in time, they three would all be killed.

At the same time, people also saw Wang Bugui's fighting will. He dared to release his primordial spirit to chase a sage, even if the latter was forced to escape! Fortunately, the man in black fought back too hastily, and his primordial spirit power was not too powerful, so Wang Bugui was not killed.

”No wonder those geniuses came so early, and some of the headmasters are in a bad mood.”

”Who dares to do it?!”

”The Palace of the Human Emperors is the guardian of the Human Race. Such a shameless person! How dares he hurt the descendant of the Human Emperors!”

All the cultivators were irritated, so were the headmasters and elders in the palace. In the sacred land where so many grandmasters gathered, how could someone be so crazy?

”Headmaster Leng, do you know who is this man in black?!” The Headmaster of the Crazy Saber Sect slammed his seat.
