“Ahhh~!” Yun Shan let out a scream, and in an instant, his skin was ripped apart. Even though he was already a Wisdom Dictator, he still found the new wounds difficult to heal. That was because the willow branches also contained the power of a Wisdom Dictator.
Both Nanan and Dragin moved around fluidly as they continuously whipped Yun Shan with the willow branches. They moved so fast that they had become a blur. Everyone watching the unfolding of the abuse began to shudder as if they were the ones getting whipped.
“This…this…this…” They were so shocked that they were at a loss for words. They could only stare blankly for they had lost the ability to process anything. “If I didn’t know any better, I would’ve thought that Yun Shan wasn’t a Wisdom Dictator at all!”
“This is too terrifying to watch! I’m shocked to my very core!”
“I wouldn’t have believed this if I didn’t see it with my own eyes.”
“They…they’re actually winning! Hurray! We’re saved!”
“It’s a miracle! A miracle has been granted to us!”
Nanan and Dragin had done the impossiblewinning against a Wisdom Dictator.
Yun Shan suddenly let out a long, furious roar, and the mana all over his body surged like a tsunami, giving him the push he needed to break away from Nanan and Dragin. At that moment, his distorted face was completely drenched in his own blood.
Yun Shan stared at Dragin and Nanan with his bloodshot eyes. His murderous intent was so thick that it manifested as a cloud of red mist around him. It was a terrifying force that made the sky tremble.
“This ends here!” He pressed the fiery red wings on his forehead and the flaming wings shot up to the sky like a phoenix. The Fallen God Bow appeared in front of him and he pulled the bowstring to its limit.
‘Die! Die! Die!’ Yun Shan smiled savagely at the thought of Nanan and Dragin’s inevitable death. He poured all his power into the Fallen God Bow to unleash all of its potential. The world went silent. He was confident that this arrow would send Nanan and Dragin to death’s door.
Everyone present was holding their breaths and watching intently with their hearts in their throats. Imagine their surprise when before their very eyes, the Fallen God Bow deflated like a balloon and disappeared in a blink of an eye. It happened so fast that Yun Shan remained locked in his bowstring-pulling stance for a while. His eyes widened in confusion when he finally realized the bow was gone.
“Where did it go?” screamed Yun Shan shrilly. He began to question whether he was awake or dreaming. He looked at Nanan and Dragin and asked fearfully, “Who are you people exactly?”
Whack! Whack! Whack! He got his reply in the form of two willow branches. The same abuse rained down incessantly on him.
The Yun Chief could not believe what he was seeing. “What happened?”
The Fallen God Bow was the power of the Yun Clan’s bloodline. It was their strongest ultimate move inspired by their bloodline and it could easily shoot down opponents of the same level! How could it have failed? How was it possible that in one moment, Yun Shan was pulling the bow cockily, and in the next, he wilted into nothingness? No one could possibly expect them to have processed the whole thing
“The Fallen God Bow must’ve sensed that the willow branches came from one of the seven Battle Spirit Guardians. Hence, it wouldn’t attack them,” explained Cultivator Junjun.
“That must be it,” said the Yun Chief with a nod.
Very quickly, the mighty and powerful Wisdom Dictator was rendered to nothing but a fleshy pulp by Nanan and Dragin. Even at that state, he managed to remain cocky. “Hahaha, you’ll never be able to kill me. I’m a Wisdom Dictator!”
“Is that so?” said Nanan with an innocent smile. Then, her face turned cold as the aura swirling around her became domineering. “Demon Devouring!” A black mist surged out of her and shrouded Yun Shan.
“It’s useless! A half-step Wisdom Dictator like you can never obliterate me!” Yun Shan smiled disdainfully, but in the next moment, the smile froze on his face. “Gah! My power! This is impossible! My power’s being devoured! Ah! What kind of spell is this?”
He panicked and tried to resist being devoured but it was to no avail. He could only helplessly stand there as his power and Origins of Life flowed out of his body. Nanan’s power instantly skyrocketed after devouring Yun Shan’s power, and her aura became extremely unstable. The black mist rose and fell like a tide. It was a good five minutes before she managed to get the power under control. She opened her eyes, revealing a glint of unprecedented power in them. A little more and she would have become a real Wisdom Dictator.
Nanan grinned at Dragin and said proudly, “Hehe, I’m stronger than you now.”
Dragin pouted and said, “Hmph, what’s the big deal. Just wait and see!”
The two of them had a love-hate relationship. Sometimes, they even competed to see who ate the most.
By then, all the dust had settled. Yun Xiaolong finally relaxed. He ran over to where the Yun Clan people were and asked, “Chief, are you okay?”
“I’m fine. I must say, Xiaolong, that the reinforcements you brought are awesome!” said the Yun Chief.
“Chief, what you saw was just the tip of the iceberg!” said Yun Xiaolong reverently. Only those who had experienced what he had could truly understand just how monstrously powerful Nanan and the others were, so monstrously powerful that it defied all imagination.
“By the way, I’m afraid that chaos would descend upon us now that Yun Kong and the others have entered the ancestral land!” said the Yun Chief in a panic.
“Yes, there was a saying from the ancestral teachings. ‘If the ancestral land is open, heaven and earth will fall’! Our Yun Clan will be the sinners of the ages if that really happens,” said another old man.
“Let’s go now! Maybe we can still stop them!”
They were just about to take a step toward the door but were immediately stopped by the Heavenly Palace people.
“Dear fellow taoists of the Yun Clan, your mana has been sealed. Going there in your current condition is like courting death, so you should leave this matter to us,” said Yang Jing.
“That’s right! Besides, we still have to get the Fallen God Bow, so wait for us here,” said Nanan.
The Yun Chief gave it some thought. Then, he sincerely said, “Then let me thank you on behalf of the Yun Clan. We’ll never forget your great kindness and virtue.”
Then, without delay, Nanan, Dragin, and the Heavenly Palace people stepped into the ancestral land while the rest of the Heavenly Soldiers and Heavenly Guards stayed to help the Yun Clan break the seal on their mana.
Stepping into the ancestral land was like entering another space. The ground was made up from a deposit of loess while the sky was pitch-black, making the whole world seem desolate. However, one should not judge a book by its cover for the place was filled with miraculously thick Spiritual Qi and Wisdom. Their hearts began to thump wildly against their chests when they felt an inexplicable power looming over them.
Under their feet was a narrow and long road that stretched far beyond their field of vision. Nanan and the others cautiously walked forward and after some distance, they chanced upon a giant frost wolf with its snout deep in a corpse. It was obvious from the fiery red wings on the corpse’s forehead that he was one of the Yun clansmen who had entered before them.
