Nine Star Hegemon Body Arts

Chapter 5152 Tyrannical Qin Keqing

Netherdragon Wushang hadn’t expected Qin Keqing to attack him out of nowhere, so he was caught off guard. He instinctively dodged before her claw could reach him, but a searing pain suddenly radiated from his face. Although her hand didn’t make direct contact with him, five bloody streaks of wounds appeared on his face, each deep enough to reach the bone.

One cut in particular ran from the corner of his eyebrow, narrowly missing his eye. The searing pain made Netherdragon Wushang’s anger flare.

“You fucking bitch!” he roared.

Netherdragon Wushang was a violent person by nature, so this provocation instantly ignited his Blood Qi. As he was about to kill Qin Keqing, Lu Fan grabbed him. Had it been anyone else, Netherdragon Wushang would have ignored them. But seeing that it was Lu Fan, he gritted his teeth.

“Wushang!” shouted Lu Fan.

“This bitch has gone too far. I’m going to kill her,” Netherdragon Wushang spat out.

“Give me face. Settle this grievance afterward. Right now, we need to think of a way to eliminate Long Chen,” urged Lu Fan.

Hearing that, Netherdragon Wushang glared at Qin Keqing with overflowing killing intent, leaving her dumbfounded.

Just now, she had gotten hot-headed and directly attacked without thinking about the consequences. Now, she regretted it. She had been too brash to attack the commander of the Netherdragon race. She had clawed not just at Netherdragon Wushang’s face but at the pride of the entire Netherdragon race

However, regret was useless; this enmity had been planted. Seeing Netherdragon Wushang’s bloody face, she could only put on an arrogant and disdainful expression to mask her inner panic.

“You bitch, just you wait. Only one of us will leave the Glacial Heaven Domain alive,” spat out Netherdragon Wushang.

Despite his anger, he managed to calm himself down. He could disregard anyone else’s opinion, but not Lu Fan’s. After all, the Netherdragon race heavily relied on the Brahma Pill Valley’s support, and he knew just how vital that support was.

Though the Netherdragon race appeared mighty and some dragon races were willing to submit to them, they had to fend off many dragon races with terrifying foundations. Their alliance with the Brahma Pill Valley was a high-stakes gamble, one that left no room for retreat. Without the Brahma Pill Valley’s support, they would be swiftly wiped out by their enemies within the dragon race.

Because of this situation, even though Netherdragon Wushang was seething with rage, he had to maintain his cool regarding such huge matters.

Despite knowing she was wrong, Qin Keqing put on a tough front. She retorted, “Then let me see how strong the Netherdragon race is!”

Lu Fan also detested Qin Keqing. Her jealousy made her irrational, and her ability to turn hostile in an instant made her a liability. Under different circumstances, he would have taught her a lesson himself to stand up for his subordinates. But now wasn’t the time for internal strife. They still had no idea what was happening with Long Chen inside the Earth Cauldron replica, and their top priority was to draw him out.

“Everyone, we’ve suffered such heavy losses because of Long Chen and the white dragon race. We must give an explanation for our fallen. Long Chen is the main offender, but the white dragon race is his accomplice. To honor the souls of our dead, they must be eliminated. Who is willing to be our vanguard?” declared Lu Fan.

Lu Fan’s words baffled everyone. Shouldn’t they all attack together to annihilate the white dragon race instantly? But the way Lu Fan phrased it, it seemed he wanted only one person to take action. Confused, everyone exchanged uncertain glances.

Noticing their hesitation, Li Tianfan stepped forward and explained, “Brother Lu Fan is truly wise. With Long Chen stuck in the Earth Cauldron, none of us know what is going on with him. If we were to all attack the white dragon race, Long Chen might use this chance to escape. That wouldn’t be worth it.”

Hearing that, everyone realized it was true. Long Chen was their main target, and the white dragon race was nothing more than small fry. If they all attacked the small fry and Long Chen escaped, they really would go crazy. Lu Fan’s plan was well-founded.

“We don’t just need to worry about Long Chen escaping; we also have to be on guard for any sneak attacks. Using one top expert to crush them is the best way to do it,” said Lu Fan.

Everyone nodded in agreement. It made sense to have one top expert deal with the white dragon race. Although they were all confident in their power, none of them dared to guarantee they could handle a sudden sneak attack from Long Chen if they were distracted. Lu Fan’s cautious approach seemed very reliable.

Yet, despite their agreement, no one was eager to step forward. While everyone claimed they would support whoever took the lead, they actually doubted it. What if Long Chen did launch a surprise attack? Would the others truly risk their lives to save the one in the front?

Finally, Lu Fan decided, “Everyone, just hold the line for me. I’ll kill them myself!”

But before he could step forward, Qin Keqing interjected, “Let me do it instead. My Zither Sect hasn’t made its presence known in the outside world for a long time. Today, I’ll make the Zither Sect’s name resound across the land. Otherwise, some people might not place the Zither Sect in their eyes.”

Qin Keqing’s words were clearly aimed at Netherdragon Wushang. His expression darkened, and he felt an overwhelming urge to silence her and her hateful mouth.

At this moment, Liao Yuhuang suddenly spoke up. “If you attack them, you only represent yourself, not the Zither Sect.”

Qin Keqing’s expression changed dramatically as she glared at Liao Yuhuang, her eyes filled with intense murderous intent. Ignoring her glare, Liao Yuhuang coldly said, “My Zither Sect cultivates the Heavenly Daos through the Music Dao, which is in harmony with the peace of the heavens. Slaughtering others is against that peace. Besides, the Zither Sect has not suffered any casualties, meaning we have no personal enmity with Long Chen or the white dragon race. There’s no reason for the Zither Sect to attack them.”

“You...” Qin Keqing was left speechless, her face twisting with rage. Liao Yuhuang’s righteous and dignified stance made her feel cornered. It was as if Liao Yuhuang had exposed the emptiness of her actions, leaving her without a valid reason for her aggression.

“I don’t like the way they look, so I’m going to kill them! So what?! What can you do about it?!” Qin Keqing roared, reverting to her usual demeanor, resembling more of a screeching shrew than a composed leader.

“That’s why, if you want to attack, go ahead. But remember, you represent only yourself, not the Zither Sect,” Liao Yuhuang responded calmly. “Since we are from the same sect, I’ll warn you: the Heavenly Daos are already in chaos. The music of the heavens is unclear, and countless souls are screaming in anguish, unable to enter the cycle of reincarnation. Perhaps an even more terrifying tribulation will descend soon. We aren’t entangled in that karma yet, but if we willingly jump in, we will be caught in it.”

Legends had it that the Zither Sect used music to peer into the heavens, hearing the sound of heaven and earth and the whispers of the ten thousand Daos. If their top experts had a pure heart, they could even see the secrets of the heavens.

If those legends were true, what kind of calamity was she predicting? Was it related to Long Chen or the giant cauldron? A sense of dread settled over everyone, and a bad feeling began to rise within them.

“Slut, shut your mouth! Don’t try to bewitch people with your poison! When I was unrivaled in the Zither Sect, your ancestors had yet to be born! Do you think I didn’t see the way you looked at Long Chen? A slut like you wants to save them?! I’m going to kill them right in front of you!” Qin Keqing screamed, her rage boiling over.

Without hesitation, she shot toward the white dragon race, her claws raking through the void once more, aimed directly at Bai Yingxue.
