The Prodigies War

Chapter 1547 Reactions of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes

Meanwhile, in the North Sea Territory.

In front of a huge palace built on the Tempest Sea, Kun Shaoyu stood with his hands on his back, gazing into the distance.

“Congratulations on achieving supreme Sainthood, Young Master!”

In the square before the grand palace, the experts of the Kun Clan from the North Sea Ancient Domain had gathered. Whether they were longevity kings, ordinary True Saints, or supreme Saints, everyone was bowing and paying their respects, their voices reverberating through the clouds.

Kun Shaoyu!

As one of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes and the number one war god of the Kun Clan’s young generation, he was an exceptional heaven pride whose widespread name was almost a legend in the North Sea Ancient Domain.

He wore a wide-sleeved black robe. His eyes were long and narrow, and his nose was straight and tall. He was only standing casually, but the aura emanating from him was capable of creating a storm within ninety thousand miles.

Immediately following the experts of the Kun Clan, the other North Sea cultivators around also bowed down in unison and offered their congratulations.

Kun Shaoyu’s might was dominating the area!

Withdrawing his distant gaze, he swept a glance at the crowd in the square before heading back into the grand palace.

His expression was unperturbed the entire time.

Upon entering the main hall, he seemed to remember something and stopped in his tracks.

Then, he said, “A while ago, I heard that an Ancient Wasteland Domain cultivator named Lin Xun had gone on a killing spree and turned the Blood Demon Territory upside down. Look into him.”

“As you wish!” A dull-looking old man suddenly emerged from a corner and bowed his head, then quickly disappeared again.

Kun Shaoyu seated himself on the only throne in the grand hall and mused, “When Xue Qingyi returns, he will be predictably quite furious. I’d like to see what he will do in the face of such humiliation.”

As for Lin Xun? Kun Shaoyu couldn’t care less.

He was just curious if Xue Qingyi, who was also one of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes, would personally go out and execute this fellow called Lin Xun.

......

In the Absolute Yin Territory.

“Interesting. So while we were inside the Absolute Hell Secret Realm, the Blood Demon Territory was actually in a disarray and had suffered a great humiliation at the hands of a single person.”

A man clad in a refined robe, who had shiny skin and brows as sharp as swords, seemed to be pondering something.

He was Zhu Yingkong of the Torch Dragon Clan, who was also one of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes!

Next to him, Zhu Yingxue blurted angrily, “Damn it! It must be that guy!”

Zhu Yingkong’s eyes glowed eerily. “You mean the man named Lin Xun who defeated you and the other envoys in the Ancient Wasteland Domain?”

“Yes, it’s definitely him!” Zhu Yingxue gritted her teeth. “It was above the Spirit Tempering Tower in Baiyujing. He was very arrogant! And the Ancient Wasteland Domain regards him as their number one expert.”

“I see.” Zhu Yingkong nodded.

“Big brother, you have to avenge me! But don’t kill him, instead capture him alive. I want to domesticate him into a slave and have him prostrate at my feet for the rest of his life!” When Zhu Yingxue recalled her crushing defeat in the Ancient Wasteland Domain, she seethed with so much resentment that her whole body was trembling.

“Alright, as you wish.” Zhu Yingkong’s eyes softened as he stroked his little sister’s hair dotingly.

Since this little sister of his had never held such a deep grudge against someone, how could he deny her request?

The cultivators of the Torch Dragon Lineage nearby couldn’t help but reveal expressions of envy. In their clan, no one was more proud and lofty than Prince Zhu Yingkong, and only toward his little sister would he show nothing but affection and kindness.

“But it’s best that we wait and see how Xue Qingyi reacts first. If we can kill him with a borrowed knife, then why not, right?” said Zhu Yingkong leisurely.

......

In the Great Luo Territory.

Before a secluded hut.

After hearing the report from an attendant, a man in a feathered coat and a flying sword that was stuck diagonally in his hair bun as a hairpin slowly opened his eyes.

In the depths of his pupils, there seemed to be heavenly swords flashing so sharply that they were capable of cutting through the universe.

“Junior Brother Mu, you have fought with Lin Xun before. What can you tell me about him?” asked the feather-clad man slowly. His voice carried a crisp tone like a sharp sword that shook anyone who heard it to the core.

He was Jian Qingchen, heir to the Heavenly Sword Sect of the Great Luo Ancient Domain! He was also one of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes as a rare sword prodigy in the long river of history.

In the Great Luo Ancient Domain that was filled with sword cultivators, Jian Qingchen was a name that could stand side by side with the great sun in the sky.

His sword dao had long since reigned supreme among his peers and stood at the top of the world!

“Very strong and very overbearing. When he was not yet a Saint, his battle prowess could already compare to that of you, Senior Brother, in the sense of the unfathomable and unshakable feeling he gave off,” replied Mu Zhaixing with a complicated expression.

Whenever he thought about the defeat he had suffered during his trip to the Ancient Wasteland Domain as an envoy, his heart palpitated.

Jian Qingchen, who had only asked out of casual curiosity, finally developed a hint of interest. “Oh, there is such a character in the Ancient Wasteland Domain?”

Mu Zhaixing took a deep breath and analyzed seriously, “I also didn’t expect that such a freakish genius could emerge in the Ancient Wasteland Domain that had long since fallen. Recently, he has also become a supreme Saint and has raised a huge storm in the Blood Demon Territory. I’m inferring from this he’s still just as extraordinary even among supreme Saints.”

Jian Qingchen quietly listened to the whole thing before nodding. “He’s remarkable, indeed. The Ancient Wasteland Domain has been on the decline for far too long, so it’s not surprising that it would birth such a supreme character.”

Pausing a little, he then laughed, “However, whether he can withstand the wrath of Xue Qingyi is still a question. If he can survive...”

Mu Zhaixing’s ears immediately pricked up.

But Jian Qingchen ultimately did not finish his thought. He closed his eyes and entered meditation.

Mu Zhaixing wanted to ask, but he held back in the end.

He knew that a legendary figure such as his senior brother Jian Qingchen needed no reminders from him.

......

Similar scenes were playing out in the other regions of the Nine Domains Battlefield.

In the Nine Dark Territory.

Chi Wushu, who was Prince of the Chi Clan, the leading figure of the Nine Dark Ancient Domain, and also one of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes, snorted, “Among those from the Ancient Wasteland Domain, only this man can amount to something, but like the others, he will be hard-pressed to escape his death.”

In the Star Fiend Territory.

Shi Pohai, the direct descendant of the Imperial Shi Clan and also the leading figure in the Star Fiend Ancient Domain, burst out laughing after he heard all the news. “That annoying Xue Qingyi and his Blood Demon Territory has finally eaten a big loss! His face is in the trash now, hahaha!”

In the Heavenly Flame Territory.

“Lin Xun? The power of one person is negligible. The certain defeat of the Ancient Wasteland Domain is not something that he alone can overturn!” commented Lie Qian, an heir of the Imperial Lie Clan and one of the Azure Blue Eight Supremes, his voice rumbling with disdain.

In the East Mulberry Territory.

After hearing the news, the bald, barefooted, fire-eyed, and devilish-looking Hua Hongxiao only uttered one sentence, “This person shall die and the Ancient Wasteland Domain shall lose, and such is the universal trend that cannot be violated!”

As he was the first and direct disciple of the God Dao Sect – the number one dao lineage in the East Mulberry Ancient Domain, no one dared to question his words!

......

In the City of Protection of the Blood Demon Territory.

Lord Xue Qingyi has returned!

At this moment, countless gazes in the city had converged on Victory Tower. Everyone was anxious, not daring to even breathe loudly.

The huge city was strangely quiet.

In the hall on the ninth floor of Victory Tower, the atmosphere seemed to have frozen solid. It was so oppressive that the people inside were close to suffocating.

The big figures from various major powers in the Blood Demon Ancient Domain all looked like they were sitting on pins and needles. Their heads hung low, and their hearts were tense as none of them had the courage to meet the eyes of Xue Qingyi, who was in the center seat.

Tap, tap, tap...

Xue Qingyi’s white and slender fingers gently tapped on the armrest, producing the only sound in this big hall.

Ever clad in blue and having his thick black hair hanging loosely, he sat in a lazy posture. As his chin rested on his hand, and his scarlet eyes narrowed slightly, he seemed to be in deep thought.

However, no one knew what was on his mind.

The tension in the atmosphere heightened.

The big names in the room were all supreme Saints, and yet, despite this overlord-like identity, they were all as silent as a cicada in winter!

Among them, no one looked more unsightly than the Sixth Elder of the Primordial Demon Sect, Bi Jianqiong. His face was pale as anxiety and terror had taken over his heart.

Lin Xun’s killing spree a while ago had caused their Blood Demon Ancient Domain to lose all face and dealt a heavy blow to their morale. They were currently the butt of all the jokes in the Nine Domains Battlefield.

This humiliation and enmity had all happened during Bi Jianqiong’s charge, hence his anxiety at the moment.

He felt like a prisoner waiting for the final judgment. Every second was difficult to bear.

After a long time, a light sigh broke the dead silence of the hall.

Thud!

As if unable to endure it anymore, Bi Jianqiong dropped to his knees the moment he heard the sigh and said tremblingly, “This old man’s incompetency is to blame. Should there be any punishment, it will be mine to bear alone!”

This drew the gazes of the whole crowd.

On the main seat, Xue Qingyi raised his eyes and glanced at Bi Jianqiong. “Since the other seven domains are surely laughing at our domain and waiting for a show out of us, I won’t bother with a useless blame game.”

He stood up, walked over to Bi Jianqiong, helped the old man up to his feet, and said, “This is not your fault, Uncle, so don’t kneel.”

Bi Jianqiong was first stunned and then emotional. His lips trembled, and he looked like he wanted to cry.

No one knew how tormented and terrified he had been since that cruel and bloody event.

He had been ready to take the punishment.

But who would have thought that Xue Qingyi would decide not to pursue it?!

Bi Jianqiong took a deep breath and gritted his teeth. “Qingyi, I will definitely make this right!”

The other experts present also revealed looks of deep hatred. Lin Xun had turned their territory upside down, caused heavy casualties, and reduced them to a laughing stock, so he deserved to be killed by a thousand cuts!

Xue Qingyi smiled and returned to his seat. Sweeping his gaze over the crowd, he said, “Everyone who knows me also knows that I would not take this kind of grievance lying down, so they are surely waiting to see my counterattack.”

The crowd immediately straightened their backs, knowing that Xue Qingyi was about to make a decision on this matter!

“But why would I satisfy them?” Xue Qingyi suddenly sneered. “They want to see me personally go and kill Lin Xun? Not a chance!”

This shocked everyone. No revenge?

They simply couldn’t comprehend why he wouldn’t want to get revenge for such a feud.

If word got out, their Blood Demon Ancient Domain would be shamed for being weak and incompetent!

“We, of course, will have our vengeance. But it won’t be now.”

Xue Qingyi took a deep breath. His voice was indifferent as he tapped his fingers on the armrest.

“Lin Xun is a knife that has wounded us and will inevitably continue to cut other people as well. When that time comes, I’d very much love to see if those fellows can still laugh!”
