After leaving Fang Lin despairing in his room, Tang Ya went back to her own room. But instead of being alone, she noticed that there are two people now sitting on her bed.
One of them was the mischievous Fang Yu. The one sitting beside her on the other hand, made Tang Ya to instinctively reach for her sword.
The woman she was wary of seemed to be around the same height as Fang Yu. She however had short, coarse hair that was arranged messily. Her face was full of scars, and even her lips had some pockmarks on it.
For her clothing, Tang Ya had no idea what she might wear since she was wearing a metallic armor. The armor the fierce woman wore completely covered her whole body. At her waist, an ebony black sword hung.
All in all, Tang Ya could feel that this woman is the real deal.
“Fang Yu, who is this woman?”
Fang Yu then narrated what happened in the meeting. As for the part where Empyrea joined her, Fang Yu used the excuse that Empyrea was the bodyguard sent by the Emperor.
“Emyrea huh…” Tang Ya knew that at this time, Fang Yu will find it really hard to use her abilities as a Godly Divine Beast.
“That Emperor sure likes to watch us struggle.” Tang Ya muttered under her breath. Upon hearing this, Empyrea slightly trembled. Tang Ya just took it as a normal reaction of the Emperor’s servant.
She then faced Empyrea as she greeted her.
“Empyrea, I am Tang Ya, the reserve disciple of the Immortal God Sect Head Tang Luo. Let’s work hard together!”
Empyrea just grunted and gave a nod.
Upon seeing this nonchalant attitude, a vein threatened to pop on Tang Ya’s forehead. She managed to calm herself down. She then faced Fang Yu as she said normally,
“Have you heard that my Dao-Comrade issued a challenge against Foundation Establishment Cultivators with one Dao Pillar?”
After a few seconds of lull silence, Fang Yu managed to catch on. “No! You must be joking!”
Tang Ya fought the urge to grimace. The way Fang Yu said those words earlier seemed to be too forced and not sincere. She saw Empyrea taking note of this.
“Not good, I must not let Fang Yu slip up anymore…” Tang Ya thought to herself as she continued speaking.
“That Fang Lin is really an idiot! Just because he was about to be bit by a dog, he took the initiative to invite more dogs! I just wish that he will learn some lessons later!”
“Ah Tang Ya…” Even Fang Yu felt that Tang Ya had been indirectly scolding her now. “So what do you want to imply by that? Do you want us to cheer for him to show him our support?”
“S**t! I forgot that Fang Yu was also Fang Lin!” The words Fang Yu uttered just now put Tang Ya in a predicament. If she refused to support and cheer for Fang Lin later, Emyrea might feel something is off. But if she accepted it, she knew all the gloating that Fang Lin will show after the battle. So what to do?
All of this deliberation happened in just 5 seconds. Tang Ya then managed to keep the defeated note in her voice as she replied,
“Of course, we will support him! He’s our teammate!”
“Yes, yes.” Fang Yu smiled complacently as she succeeded on forcing Tang Ya to agree. She looked at Empyrea as she asked, “What do you want to do now?”
Tang Ya could only hear some weak mumbles coming from Empyrea’s mouth. It sounded like, “I will do whatever I want to do, but be assured that your security is my number one priority.”
“Oh.” Fang Yu stopped questioning Empyrea after that. She then asked Tang Ya,
“So, what do we do now while waiting?”
“I suppose we can play Dao/Law Reckoning..”
“That card game? Hahaha! Let’s see if you can defeat me now!”
“Dao/Law Reckoning?” Empyrea mumbled confusedly. She seemed to have no idea what this card game was.
Upon hearing this, Tang Ya felt slight pity for Empyrea. Dao/Law Reckoning was the staple card game in the Immortal Continent.
The game consists of two kinds of card sets. The Law Cards and the Dao Cards. The Law cards contains creatures, spells and abilities related to the Godly Ascension. The Dao cards on the other hand, are related to the Immortal Cultivation. These cards will then be arranged and gathered in a deck.
Each game consisted of two players with their own decks facing off against each other. They will then use the cards they have to defeat their opponent. As for the rules, Tang Ya was too lazy to think about it.
Upon knowing that Empyrea had no experience with the card game, Tang Ya said kindly, “You can watch us play. That way you can also know the rules. It’s a little hard to explain to you, so we will just show you.”
Emyprea nodded in agreement. She then stared at the other two.
Fang Yu then brought out her deck (Its deck, not d*ck ok?”). Its affinity was with the Godly Ascension. As for Tang Ya’s, it was aligned with the Immortal Cultivation. They shuffled their cards as they readied themselves.
Both of them then shouted,
“It’s time for your reckoning!”
Even Empyrea cringed, knowing such phrase was too childish for them.
…………………
Later that afternoon.
Countless disciples flocked around the battle arena of the Immortal God Sect spirit ship. In terms of size, this battle arena was incomparable to the one in the Immortal God Sect. But anyone can still feel that this arena have been decorated with countless battles too.
They were excited for Fang Lin’s match. How could they not be? He was an exiled person from the Fang Clan. He had the talent to reach the Top 3 in the Disciple Selection. Not only that, but he managed to defeat the Prince of the Fang Clan, Fang Xiushan.
His victory may be a little….. weird, but it still showed that Fang Lin was not someone to be messed with easily. As for his battle invitation now, the crowd wanted to know if he can back up his words with power.
From the information they have, Fang Lin was clearly at the peak of Qi Condensation now. What only stopped him from stepping into the Second Stage was related to his insights. But they knew it will only be a matter of time until he can break through.
But for now, Fang Lin had to fight with his peak Qi Condensation power.
While the crowd were waiting, they saw someone approaching the battle arena.
“It’s Fang Lin!” Everyone looked incredulously towards the famous Fang Lin.
Even though he seems to be relaxed, they could still feel his competitive spirit. He came here to win, not to just survive.
Fang Lin seemed to love all the attention poured into him. He spread out his hands as he said, “Thank you everyone for you support! I will not disappoint you!”
“Boo!”
“So shameless!”
“I hope you get beaten up miserably!”
The crowd was obviously displeased with Fang Lin’s cocky attitude. They threw water and food containers at him just to imply that they are not on his side.
Fang Lin’s smile was replaced with a dismayed expression as he dodged the incoming projectiles. He then leapt, alighting on the center of the arena. He just stood there, clearly showing that he is ready to fight now.
The audience now only needed to wait for the challengers to fight with Fang Lin. When they arrive, the matches will officially start.
After some time of waiting, they felt some auras approaching the arena. All of them then sensed three auras incoming at the arena. They looked and realized that it was Tang Ya and Fang Yu with a ferocious-looking woman with them.
Everyone stopped talking at once, as they stared wide-eyed at Tang Ya and Fang Yu.
Both of them wore tight-fitting cheongsams[1]. These exemplified both of their seductive beauty. Tang Ya’s well-toned body could be seen flexing sinuously under her dress. As for Fang Yu, her dress just showed off her perfect curves.
Tang Ya was fiercely blushing, while trying to hide her body with her hands. Fang Yu on the other hand, was quite comfortable with what she wore.
Tang Ya and Fang Ya did not only bring sexiness with them. Fang Yu held a huge banner on her hands. Once they were in the arena, she started waving this huge banner above her head. The crowd could only watch with their burning eyes as her chest jiggled with her every wave.
But the message on the banner made them forget all the eyecandies they just saw. It read,
“Good Luck Fang Lin! Fang Yu and Tang Ya, your two closest friends, are now here to support you!”
If before, only Fang Lin’s cocky attitude made them angry, what they saw now made their angers rise to the peak of heavens.
“Normies like you should die!”
“How dare you flaunt something like this! I wish you get a good beating later!”
“Why does this makes me want to cry?”
Everyone was pissed upon seeing Fang Lin having the support of two exemplary beauties. This just made their dislike for Fang Hao reach an all-time high.
Fang Lin and Fang Yu both had cramped smiles etched on their faces. Fang Yu faced the flushed Tang Ya as she said,
“So, my ‘support plan’ really backfired then.”
“I just told you earlier that this would happen!”
“Teehee! My bad!”
“………….”
