“It’s time to say goodbye, human.” Buluc Chabtan stated and prepared to finish his initial objective; assassinate the person in front of him.
The words of the ancient god of the Mayan civilization did not sound like a farewell in the least; they were extremely arrogant words just like a king deciding on the lives of his subjects; arrogant and proud.
Xie Feng clenched his teeth in frustration. He really wasn’t willing. When was the last time someone had talked to him in such a manner and he managed to walk away with his teeth in place? Xie Feng couldn’t even remember… But now, right in front of him and gradually approaching, there was a being who really had the power to decide about his life.
Because he was weak.
Although Buluc Chabtan had said that if it wasn’t for his divinity as well as the prayers of human beings this battle would have ended with his defeat, Xie Feng was not interested in words of comfort. If he was strong enough then it would not matter how many prayers the gods received nor would it matter what kind of divinity he possessed; in the face of absolute power, all secondary help was useless.
Unfortunately, Xie Feng was not all-powerful. He was only a young man in his early twenties. While 99.99% of young people of his age were working, studying, etc; he was facing the avatar of a god. From a certain point of view, having destroyed half of his enemy’s body was incredible in itself since if his enemy was a person and not a god then that person would undoubtedly have died a long time ago.
“I see that you are unwilling to accept defeat.” Buluc Chabtan said indifferently. “Although it is not to my liking to win using borrowed strength, in war anything is fair game. The winner is the king and the loser is the thief. You murdered a follower who bestowed a great amount of divine power on me every year, now you must pay the consequences of your own actions.”
Xie Feng said nothing. “The winner is the king and the loser is the thief,” he also agreed with this phrase. Victory was all that mattered, the winner could live and make history while the loser could only be buried under the victor’s achievements.
However, a voice that should not be there sounded right after the words of the ancient Mayan god.
“Hehe… So in war all’s fair? I’m glad to hear that.”
It was a soft voice like that of an innocent angel but sounded naughty like that of a seductive woman. When Xie Feng heard this voice, he was so surprised that for a moment he did not know how to react.
On the other hand, Buluc Chabtan frowned deeply and looked towards the voice source, “What a surprise…. To think that someone was actually able to get so close to my location without me noticing.”
“Oh, nothing to be surprised about, Buluc Chabtan.” The newly arrived woman shook her head with a small smile and remarked, “My beloved just beat you so badly that half of your body disappeared. If you didn’t concentrate on your battle against him, there probably wouldn’t be anything left of you now. Don’t you think?”
Xie Feng looked at the woman floating in space with surprise and hurriedly asked, “Mu Wuying? How are you here?”
Xie Feng was so agitated that he felt like an ant put into a pot of boiling water. He couldn’t even guarantee his own safety so he couldn’t afford to protect anyone else either!
“Don’t worry, don’t worry.” Mu Wuying shook her head, that faint smile that characterized her had never left her face. “With my strength, I wouldn’t be able to move through outer space freely, but it seems I underestimated your own strength.”
Saying her last words, Mu Wuying looked at the pitiful condition the God of Human Sacrifice was in and remarked, “To be able to beat up a True God and leave him in such a pitiful state…. Hehe, I guess it’s nothing strange for me to be able to move through space even if I only take a small part of your strength then.”
Xie Feng didn’t understand what Mu Wuying meant by his words, but apparently Buluc Chabtan seemed to think about something because his frown deepened as a look of contemplation crept across his face.
“You said earlier that all’s fair in war right?” Mu Wuying didn’t let the ancient Mayan god think too much and also didn’t wait for his reply as she stated, “So, since you receive support from the humans inhabiting planet Earth, then I hope you won’t mind if I support Xie Feng.”
This was the first time the all powerful True God had heard the name of his enemy. A name he had never heard before and a name unworthy of being remembered. Although Xie Feng gave him a good fight, Buluc Chabtan was not using even a tenth of his full strength due to the limits his avatar imposed; therefore, his opinion on Xie Feng being an ant had not changed from start to finish.
“I hope you don’t mind then.” Mu Wuying chuckled softly and winked at Xie Feng. Without waiting for his reply, she placed both hands in front of her chest and began to murmur.
“By this love that follows me in life and pursues me in death. Oh Goddess of Love Please help the one I love, please make possible all that he wishes to do!”
Before Mu Wuying’s surprising and revealing chant where she practically exposed all her feelings without any shame, particles of pink colored light surrounded her and danced around her at different rhythms. She was already an extremely beautiful woman, beautiful enough to charm any man’s heart with a single glance and capable of making countless others willing to die for her; however, the current Mu Wuying looked devastatingly beautiful.
The most beautiful woman Xie Feng had seen in his life so far was undoubtedly Shen Xinya, but while those strange pink particles surrounded Mu Wuying, her beauty was not inferior to Shen Xinya’s at all and there was even a slight tendency to surpass her.
However, Xie Feng’s attention did not stay long on the beauty behind him since the changes within him were too obvious to ignore.
The chaotic energy inside his body that was always still in the same place suddenly began to move throughout his body covering every possible inch and pore. But the most surprising thing was that a cyclone the size of a small planet had formed deep inside his soul.
Xie Feng didn’t know what was happening, but one thing was unquestionable; he had become more powerful.
BANG!
With a bang, Xie Feng felt something inside him break, and an aura several times more powerful than before burst out of his body without restraint.
Buluc Chabtan was forced to retreat several steps back from the pressure he felt due to the aura released by the young man in front of him. However, even as he was forced to retreat, the almighty god opened his eyes wide while muttering to himself, “This is impossible…”
BANG!
“Whew…” Xie Feng released the air he held in his lungs and slowly opened his eyes. A look of delight shone in his golden eyes as he noticed the power within his body.
However, what Xie Feng felt the most was bitterness. Although he did not know what happened, he did know that thanks to Mu Wuying he had become more powerful, and also thanks to her he realized how naive he was before.
If the previous Xie Feng could destroy several cities with his strongest attack, then his current strongest attack could shake an entire country the size of China with no problem; that was how big the difference was.
But the most noticeable difference was the energy.
Before, Xie Feng needed a long time to gather energy from the surroundings and even longer to create energy on his own. However, the strange cyclone that had formed deep within his soul was like a black hole that constantly gathered energy for him, waiting for him to put it to whatever use he wanted.
In other words, the current Xie Feng no longer needed to waste countless minutes to release such a powerful attack as before! As long as he had energy stored in that cyclone, he could use as many powerful attacks as he pleased! And the best part of it all was that, unlike other people, he had no mental exhaustion since the wind energy inside his body was a constant thing thanks to the strange multi-colored cloud!
Before Mu Wuying’s arrival, only seconds ago, Xie Feng’s life was in danger and he knew that he could not defeat the enemy in front of him. But with the arrival of the beautiful beauty behind his back, everything had changed in less than ten seconds!
Xie Feng looked at the enemy in front of him and, for the first time since they met face to face, he was sure that victory belonged to him…. He could definitely defeat the totem of the ancient god Maya!
