Even if Bao Bao had not attacked, Zuo Tianci would still have ended up dying. However, he still smashed this stick without hesitation.
This was the murderous side of the ancient Spiritual monkey. Although Bao Bao was smashing Zuo Tianci, he was intentionally showing it to the Nine Raven Temple and the Emperor Buddha Palace. The reason went without saying, it was to intimidate.
Indeed, after he had smashed down with this stick, those two observers felt as if someone had whipped their entire body. Instantly, mixed feelings filled their heart.
Even Zhuo Buqun and Tan Zhongchi was stunned by Bao Bao’s actions. Qin Wushuang walked over quickly and lifted Zuo Tianci’s body. In secret, he activated the Power of Deep North to quickly absorb all the dispersing Spiritual Qi from Zuo Tianci’s entire body.
Although Void Martial warrior Zuo Tianci had died, the dispersing Qi was also extraordinary. It far surpassed Dao Haitang and Zhao Heng’s Qi.
With a calm and collected expression, Qin Wushuang called from afar: “Head Palace Master, Teacher, this Zuo Tianci has been executed!”
As he spoke, he also called out to Bao Bao and the Purple Flame Electric Beast, and said to Zhuo Buqun and Tan Zhongchi: “I will bring the body of this Zuo Tianci back to put it on display at the imperial capital, to display the might of the Stargaze Palace!”
Since he said it this way, the other people would not become suspicious. Naturally, they would not know that Qin Wushuang had other reasons for taking the body.
Qin Wushuang flew up and dropped onto the back of the Purple Flame Electric Beast: “Lone, you are fast, today just be my ride.”
The Purple Flame Electric Beast gave a long and proud howl: “Alright!”
Travelling at a fast speed, he dashed in the direction of the imperial capital. Bao Bao also travelled extremely fast with a speed that was no less than the Purple Flame Electric Beast’s.
Zhuo Buqun and Tan Zhongchi looked at each other and apparently, they still had not yet come to terms with the fact that Zuo Tianci had been destroyed. Not to mention finding out about Qin Wushuang’s secrets.
“Second, Zuo Tianci is dead!” Zhuo Buqun still felt a lingering fear. He remembered the power of Zuo Tianci and the terrifying elite warrior at the Void Martial Stage. In that fight, these two had almost been nothing more than bystanders. Although they did act to some extent, they did not really play a decisive part during the process of executing Zuo Tianci.
Now, Tan Zhongchi was more excited than shocked. When Qin Wushuang had shot the two arrows that slayed Zuo Tianci, it made Tan Zhongchi feel that everything had happened in a dream.
Finally, Qin Wushuang had shone and showcased the brilliance he deserved!
The Head Divinity Chief and Zhou Dong walked over slowly. They also felt a lingering fear as they recalled the devastating scene along the way. They could also see that Zuo Tianci was already at the Void Martial Stage. Despite this fact, he had still been executed by the Stargaze Palace.
The fact was, these two had been almost on par with Zuo Tianci’s strength before today. The Head Divinity Chief was even slightly more powerful than him. However, Zuo Tianci had been one step ahead of them and had entered the Void Martial Stage.
Today, he was still one step ahead and yet he had died! This mental shock had caused a tremendous surge of emotions inside them. They had already noticed the soaring status and power of the Stargaze. However, they never expected that this rising star sect was this strong. Even Zuo Tianci who had advanced into the Void Martial Stage had nursed a grievance.
And they also witnessed that Qin Wushuang was a ruthless and decisive person when he had executed Zuo Tianci. Without showing any hesitation or doubt, it was clear that his mind was set and he was determined even if he were to offend the Heavenly Luo Daoist sect. Just this bravery and killing decisiveness left these two in awe.
And the murderous intent demonstrated from Bao Bao’s last stick attack had completely stopped them having any other ill thoughts.
Regardless of anything, they must not become the Stargaze’s enemies.
Deep in their mind, they were determined with this idea.
“Head Palace Master Zhuo, Palace Master Tan, congratulations to your Stargaze Palace. The Nine Palace has failed and no one should object to the Stargaze becoming one of the prime powers in the human countries! There is no doubt that the Great Luo will become an Upper Ranking Empire!” Now, the Head Divinity Chief spoke with a tone that came sincerely from the bottom of his heart.
Fortunately, his earlier attitude had been in support of the Great Luo. Thus, the words he said now did not seem to be smoothing whiskers to pat a horse’s bottom.
Zhou Dong also followed to give a long sigh: “Honestly, I doubted the Stargaze Palace’s power before. Thinking back now, it’s my fault for being so short sighted, ha ha.”
Zhuo Buqun cupped his hands in a salute: “Thank you both for coming to observe the battle. In today’s situation, the Stargaze was forced to defend itself. Since we have killed Zuo Tianci, the Stargaze will bear all responsibility. Could you two come with us to the imperial capital and watch the ceremony together?”
“Yes.”
…
On the way back to the imperial capital, Qin Wushuang used all his force to absorb the dispersing Spiritual Qi from Zuo Tianci as he was sitting on the back of the Purple Flame Electric Beast. The Spiritual Qi of a Void Martial elite warrior was blessed by the heavens and extremely rich. Qin Wushuang had never experienced such richness before. Although the Qi was flowing away quickly, he had absorbed about fifty or sixty percent of it. By the time he arrived at the city gate, he had completely absorbed Zuo Tianci’s Qi.
And Qin Wushuang felt waves of movements from his dantian. Apparently, the absorption this time had far surpassed previous instances. It had directly accelerated his process towards the Perfect Stage.
Initially, Qin Wushuang had been only a step away from the Perfect Stage. Thus, by absorbing the Spiritual Qi from Zuo Tianci did not just accelerate Qin Wushuang’s advancement to the Perfect Stage, one could say without exaggeration that it had helped him to cross two thirds of his progress towards the Perfect Stage.
The Spiritual Qi of an elite Void Martial Stage warrior was extraordinary!
The Purple Flame Electric Beast crossed the city gate and arrived directly at the crowning ceremony of the imperial capital. Qin Wushuang used the long Fury Dragon Soul Whip to bind the body of Zuo Tianci as he made his entrance.
Even from afar, everyone felt the arrival of a strong power. They turned their heads to see the Purple Flame Electric Beast entering slowly into the scene.
Qin Wushuang threw the body of Zuo Tianci onto the stage and shouted lightly: “Zuo Tianci has been executed, because of his obstinacy!”
This action accompanied by Qin Wushuang’s heroic words instantly made everyone to fall silent. Zuo Tianci had been executed?
A moment ago, Zuo Tianci’s way of making an entrance had been extremely powerful and tyrannical. One could say that he had intimidated the entire scene. However, just after half a day later, he had been executed?”
For a long time, the name of Zuo Tianci had represented the supreme authority of the human countries. It represented supreme power, autocracy, and killing!
Of the three Upper Ranking Empires in the human countries, he was one of the three massive figures among the three strongest sects, he was known to be the strongest of the three figures. After half a day, he had become nothing more than a withered corpse?
“The Great Luo has always acted with reason and evidence. We’ve never provoked others but would never forgive those who dare bully us! Before, there was the Archaic Mysteries sect, now there is the Nine Palace Faction. Both of them invaded the Great Luo, and the Stargaze Palace was forced to resist!”
Qin Wushuang’s voice reverberated through the area. He was also excited after having absorbed Zuo Tianci’s Spiritual Qi: “Zuo Tianci thought that he could do whatever he wanted after entering the Void Martial Stage! So what if he is at the Void Martial Stage? No matter how strong you get, can you surpass the natural law and order? I only heard that a just cause attracts much support, and an unjust one finds little! Zuo Tianci defied the natural law, to rule as a despot, regardless of how strong he got, he could not escape today’s karma!”
“The Archaic Mysteries sect and the Nine Palace Faction are both examples of powers that once tormented the Great Luo and the Stargaze Palace! In the east, under the Great Luo’s governance, we will not allow any other human powerhouses to interfere!”
Qin Wushuang used this wave of emotion to make his final address.
Perhaps, the words of Qin Wushuang from the past would not have any persuasion. However, now, on his left and right, there stood powerful Spiritual Beasts. And he had tossed Zuo Tianci’s body out from his whip. This series of actions made each of his words carry penetrating power and extreme persuasion like a pearl.
As soon as the sound of Qin Wushuang’s voice had faded, a few claps emerged from afar. Zhuo Buqun and Tan Zhongchi had arrived quickly. Tan Zhongchi reinforced his words: “Wushuang is right, those who invade the Great Luo, like the Archaic and the Nine Palace, will only be making the same mistakes as these predecessors!”
The Head Divinity Chief and Zhou Dong also followed them. From their expression, one knew that indeed, the Stargaze had won this battle!
For a moment, the entire crowd became solemn and did not carry a single trace of doubt about the power of the Stargaze Palace. What they had was a feeling of awe from the bottom of their hearts. Why would the Stargaze need anything else to persuade them since they had already killed Zuo Tianci at the Void Martial Stage?
Before the appearance of Zuo Tianci, everyone still had doubts and had been unwilling to accept the Great Luo’s ascension as an Upper Ranking Empire.
Then, with the appearance and death of Zuo Tianci, it had caused the entire matter lose its suspense. They had completely embraced the momentum of the Great Luo and would no longer have any objections.
All the doubts and all the unwillingness had disappeared like wisps of smoke!
Just when the entire Great Luo entered a triumphal mood, Qin Wushuang disappeared from the scene. He needed time to deal with the changes in his dantian.
He had a feeling that this advancement was not as simple as a breakthrough. It was even possible that it may help save him the effort of crossing the Perfect Stage to the Void Martial Stage!
Again, Qin Wushuang brought Bao Bao and the Purple Flame Electric Beast to enter the Virtuous Cloud Main Summit.
“Boss, you were in such hurry to take us away. We didn’t even finish participating in the ceremony.” Bao Bao loved the hustle and bustle of the festivities and was still reluctant to part.
The Purple Flame Electric Beast said: “There is nothing fun about that ceremony. No battles to fight. It’s exactly what I wanted when Boss left.”
However, Qin Wushuang said: “I left there because there are signs of a breakthrough. You two must help protect me.”
“Boss, you are going to breakthrough?” The Purple Flame Electric Beast’s tone was somewhat strange.
Bao Bao was overly excited: “Great, Boss Wushuang, if you don’t breakthrough, you will fall behind us!”
Qin Wushuang said seriously: “Stop with all the talking, you two must not neglect your duty. This isolation period will take a longer time.”
Qin Wushuang was not making things up. Indeed, he felt that this isolation training period might be different than before. Firstly, the Spiritual Qi of Zuo Tianci was excessively rich and needed a longer time to digest. Secondly, he also wanted to consolidate his Perfect Stage after the breakthrough. He would aim to take a large step towards the Void Martial Stage in a burst of energy!
