Painting of the Nine Immortals

Chapter 875: An Aggressive Kill

Translator: _Tat_ Editor: Rundi

“Someone that I, Ling Xian, want to kill, is not someone you, can protect.”

After he spoke those words, energy rushed out of him. Like an awakened ancient beast who had the energy to swallow the ocean whole.

Then, Ling Xian made his move.

He attacked aggressively. With a ton of energy, he slammed forward and crushed through space.

This made Wang Jun frown but he was not flustered. He was the strongest descendant of the Wang Clan and one of the strongest and youngest cultivator of the East Domain. He was different from people like Zhao Qing.

Therefore, he had no need to fear. At once, his two hands clasped together, as if the sky and the earth were merging, and unleashed an infinite amount of energy. He released enough energy to break open the earth.

HOMMM!

The two powerhouses clashed, creating an extreme and abrupt vibration that made the entire palace tremble. If Fairy Wu and the others did not set a protective array set, this place would have turned into shambles a long time ago.

But after this rebuttal, Ling Xian and Wang Jun each stepped back three steps. Both of their gazes carried some surprise.

Great opponent!

This was the title they gave each other.

“People I want to protect are not people you can kill.”

Wang Jun responded authoritatively. His sharp eyes pierced through Ling Xian. There was provocation and also killer’s intent.

“Then come and try.”

The corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up. He attacked again. Like a real dragon coming out of its nest, he was violent, aggressive, and destructive!

Wang Jun’s attack did not pale in comparison. Heavenly light emitted around his body, making him appear like a God. His demeanor threatened all nine levels of heaven and all 10 levels of hell.

HOMMMM!

A great battle began. One was there to kill while the other was there to protect. In the blink of an eye, the two exchanged more than 10 rebuttals.

Terrifying ripples of energy from the clashes dissipated, shocking Fairy Wu and everyone else.

One has to admit that Wang Jun was very powerful. His movements were exaggerated and unstoppable. Similar to the descendant of a real God, every attack he made quaked everything in miles!

But was Ling Xian weak in comparison?

Ling Xian was powerful and brave. He was terrifying and like the Warrior of War’s reincarnation, his energy overtook the mountain and the sea.

“The Hand that Turns the Sky, suppress!”

Wang Jun shouted loudly. His hands formed into a secret seal and instantly, a giant palm descended from the sky and headed towards Ling Xian.

Pity though, Ling Xian was far too powerful. Against this extraordinary technique, he simply threw a punch. The attack broke like a dried up branch.

Next however, Wang Jun’s hand seal changed and he displayed another powerful technique.

“Seal of Xiu Luo, kill!”

“You sure know a lot. Sadly, they are all useless.”

Ling Xian moved aggressively and threw a fist. He didn’t display any unparalleled technique but still, energy filled the air and the Seal of Xiu Luo was easily destroyed.

Then, Wang Jun’s hands changed continuously and he displayed different techniques one after another. He vowed to kill Ling Xian here and now!

However, no matter how powerful his technique was or how complicated, Ling Xian’s only response was one fist!

Yes, a simple punch like this destroyed all of Wang Jun’s offensive intentions. This stressed him out a little.

“Get the hell out of my way. My target isn’t you.”

Ling Xian screamed loudly and his two fists continued to move, sending absolutely terrifying prowess across the hall and forcing Wang Jun to retreat. Then, he took a leap across the hall and his index finger tip landed between Zhao Qing’s brows.

Instantly, the person’s expression changed and much fear and regret engulfed his heart.

Wang Jun’s expression changed. If he didn’t stand out at first, then everything would be fine. But since he had spoken out that he wanted to protect Zhao Qing, if he gets killed by Ling Xian now, then that would be embarrassing.

Therefore, alongside a cold howl, he attacked again!

“Stop!”

Hearing this, Ling Xian did not speak. But he responded to Wang Jun with action.

Bang!

Another mumbled bang, then it was the sound of Zhao Qing being thrown to the ground.

His eyes were wide and they were full of regret and fear. There was a bloody hole between his brows, indicating that his soul had dispersed.

This scene stunned everyone a little. They didn’t think Ling Xian would be so powerful that he would knock that man out in one go.

‘Ah, Ling Xian, I want to kill you!”

Wang Jun’s hair was in disarray now as he was utterly furious. He blocked Ling Xian’s way and vowed to protect Zhao Qing’s life.

Yet Zhao Qing had just died.

This meant Ling Xian had ignored his words. It also meant he couldn’t keep his words. Or rather, he had failed.

Without a doubt, this was a naked slap in the face and a loud one at that. This Heaven’s Favorite’s face was now swollen from it.

Therefore, why wouldn’t Wang Jun be furious? An infinite amount of heavenly light exploded around him and formed into powerful tornados that aimed to smack Ling Xian.

“You don’t have the ability to.”

Ling Xian spoke softly. His fists turned into Disorder Conquering Fists and they exploded with an unimaginable amount of power that broke through the tornado of Qi.

At this, Wang Jun turned even more furious. His hands formed another seal as he displayed the strongest technique from the Wang Clan in an attempt to kill Ling Xian.

However, just as he was about to attack, a commanding shout erupted.

“Enough!”

Fairy Wu stood up, her back as straight as the pillar holding up the building. She emitted a shocking amount of heavenly energy that quaked the earth.

Then, she glanced at Wang Jun, “Zhao Qing has died. What reason do you have to continue this battle?”

“To pay back the shame.” Wang Jun stared deadly at Ling Xian, his eyes were spitting fire.

“Believe me, if you continue fighting, you will feel even more ashamed.”

Ling Xian answered gently, “Plus, from a certain point of view, I have won that round.”

“I admit that. But we haven’t established a winner between the two of us in terms of capability.” Wang Jun was boiling in fury.

“Enough. The intention of me hosting this gathering isn’t for you to fight.”

Fairy Wu’s face was as white as snow, “Wang Jun, who was in the wrong just then is something we all know. If you continue to meddle, then I will not be kind.”

Hearing this, Wang Jun silenced.

What happened today was that he, an outsider, tried to protect Zhao Qing due to their family clans’ ties. Now that Zhao Qing has died, he lost his reason.

To avenge? His relationship with Zhao Qing hasn’t gone that far. So it could only be said that he merely couldn’t handle being slapped by Ling Xian.

But Fairy Wu was now mad. More than that there is the extremely terrifying Ling Xian, who’s background was unknown. Therefore, even for him, it was time to weigh his options.

“Hmm, today, I will let it go because of Fairy Wu.”

Wang Jun hissed and fixated his gaze on Ling Xian, “The business between us isn’t finished. We will fight another time.”

Then, he flapped around his sleeve and left the hall.

Obviously he had lost the face to continue staying.

At this, Ling Xian smiled. He didn’t want to continue this anymore.

Zhao Qing had died, which meant he had won against Wang Jun once. If he continues fighting, then he would be embarrassing Fairy Wu, the host.

Therefore, he shifted his gaze towards another youth in the garden.

His face was pale white and his breathing was dim. He stared deadly at Ling Xian with awe.

That person is the young man Ling Xian taught a lesson to on his way over here.

“I told you not to provoke me but you refused to listen. Since that’s the case then I will send you on your way as well.”

Ling Xian spoke in a low voice. Then, a long black spear appeared in the sky and instantaneously pinned the young man to the ground.

At once, the Moon Inviting Garden silenced.

Even Fariy Wu and her company were dumbfounded.
