Chapter 776: Who Dares To Stop Me, Dies (3)
Cao Hong’s tone was bossy and arrogant, his words showing no respect for others, taking the brazenness of the Immortal Alliance to the extreme.
Qi Huang, however, was not angry at all, because in her eyes, the words of that old rascal were completely without deterrence!
Qin Quan’s smile became stiff, but he still held onto a sliver of hope, so he began to complain: “Alliance Leader Cao, you haven’t visited the Xihui Dynasty much, so you probably don’t understand our situation here. Huangtian Capital was once rampant with evil spirits and shrouded in Yin energy, making it difficult to grow grain. This led to the local people barely having enough to eat and drink, resulting in them being short and thin. Therefore, they have been mocked by people from their own country and even neighboring countries for generations, unable to hold their heads up wherever they go. To free their descendants from this stigma, they can only rely on the Golden Life Flower Seed.”
“So what?”
Cao Hong retorted indifferently.
“A dog’s mouth can only spew out dog’s teeth. What do you mean my grandfather hasn’t visited the Xihui Dynasty much? Do you think he only stays in the Immortal Alliance Main Altar living a life of luxury?”
Cao Guang
“Alliance Leader Cao, isn’t the Immortal Alliance known for eliminating evil and bringing benefits to the common people of the world? Why not show some leniency and give their descendants a chance to change their destiny.”
Qin Quan pleaded respectfully.
“If I show leniency, who will compensate the Immortal Alliance for its losses?”
Cao Hong retorted unfeelingly.
…
“Alliance Leader Cao, as long as you show leniency, I am willing to be your slave and serve you at your beck and call!”
“Alliance Leader Cao, for the Golden Life Flower Seed, we are willing to pay any price, even our lives. We beg you to show us mercy!”
“Alliance Leader Cao… *sob sob*… we are truly afraid of being discriminated against. I can’t give my children anything, I only hope they can get rid of the stigma on them and not follow our old path!”
“Alliance Leader Cao, nowadays, it’s still okay for girls in the mortal world; at best, they can get married. But my family has a son! If he doesn’t have this Golden Life Flower Seed, what will he rely on to get a wife in the future? The Yang family line will be broken! We implore you!”
…
The common people also pleaded with tears streaming down their faces.
“A bunch of useless lowly people, what use do I, this Alliance Leader, have for you? You think too highly of yourselves!”
Cao Hong said with disdain.
“Get lost quickly and don’t linger here. It’s already considered merciful that we haven’t resorted to force.”
Cao Guang impatiently berated.
Haha, see, I told you these bumpkins were celebrating too early. Now they can only be mocked by everyone in the Cultivation World for generations. Mice are just mice, why struggle?
Yes, it’s really satisfying to see this. How dare the HongHua Sect discriminate against us outsiders? Now they’ve become clowns!
I don’t think the HongHua Sect has merely become clowns. With what they’ve done today, these people will probably lose a layer of skin even if they don’t die.
Millions of onlookers, outsiders, began to add insult to injury.
*Sob sob*… Alliance Leader Cao… I’m kneeling to you… The people of Huangtian Capital have been discriminated against for thousands of years, we cannot live without the Golden Life Flower Seed!
The people below were overcome with sorrow and were preparing to kneel before Cao Hong.
What’s the use of kneeling? A bunch of bumpkins, do you really think your knees are valuable?
Cao Guang shook his head in disgust, then warned: “Listen up, I’m in a bad mood today. Whoever leaves last will be dealt with. Measure for yourselves whether you want to go or not!”
Honey, quickly take the child and leave!
What about you? Husband!
I plan to stay and beg Alliance Leader Cao again, hoping he’ll show some mercy!
What if they really resort to killing?
It’s okay, my life is cheap. If I can’t get the Golden Life Flower Seed today, and the Liu family’s lineage is broken in the future, I will be ashamed to face my ancestors when I die!
The fathers below were not intimidated. They let their wives and children leave and stayed to try again.
The mothers present choked back their sobs and led their children away, looking back repeatedly. They really wanted to stay and accompany their husbands, but they had to consider their children’s safety.
Are you taking my words as deaf ears? Do you think I won’t dare to act?
Cao Guang flew into a rage.
“We beg you, Alliance Leader Cao! We prostrate ourselves before you!”
The fathers were about to bow.
Cheng Hong Ling couldn’t stand it anymore. Her Spiritual Sense emerged from her body, stopping all those men, and then she stepped forward with a heroic demeanor, saying, “A true man kneels only to Heaven, Earth, and his parents. These people are not worthy of your kneeling!”
Has this Cheng Hong Ling gone mad? She actually dares to oppose the Immortal Alliance!
Cultivators who have never seen the world. She’s used to being dominant in her own territory and doesn’t know that there are people outside and heavens beyond!
Well done, the more it’s like this, the more miserable the HongHua Sect will be, and the more satisfying it will be for me!
What a shame for this Cheng Hong Ling, who is so beautiful, she will likely perish today.
Tch, a brainless vase with large breasts. Serves her right to die!
It’s okay, she’s useful even in death!
What do you mean?
Secretly collect her corpse, then turn her into a zombie maiden to serve me. The thought alone is exciting!
Those people saw this scene and were filled with awe, waiting for the good show to begin.
Cao Hong did not get angry immediately. He didn’t know if it was his imagination, but this voice seemed familiar.
Cao Guang looked at Cheng Hong Ling, his expression gradually turning grim. He did like beautiful women, but that didn’t mean he would be infatuated.
“You are that number one genius of the Xihui Dynasty, Cheng Hong Ling?”
Cao Guang’s tone was unfriendly as he confirmed.
“What guidance do you seek?”
Cheng Hong Ling retorted coldly.
“In this generation of cultivators, there are the Ten Great Geniuses. You reached the Divine Ability Mirror six or seven years ago, and you also possess a clone with considerable strength, so you are among them. Are you aware of this matter?”
Cao Hong avoided the question.
“I’ve heard of it. Speak directly if you have something to say!”
Cheng Hong Ling frowned impatiently.
“Why have you not participated in the last two Continental Evergreen Conventions? As far as I know, the Immortal Alliance sent you an invitation each time! If your strength is truly as strong as rumored, you shouldn’t be afraid, right?”
Cao Guang voiced his doubts.
“Not interested!”
Cheng Hong Ling shook her head with a cold expression.
“Is it not interested or are you afraid of battle? Could it be that your reputation doesn’t match your abilities?”
Cao Guang questioned.
“Judging by your words, do you wish to try it yourself?”
Cheng Hong Ling’s gaze turned sharp.
“Precisely!”
Cao Guang madly circulated the True Qi within his body, his aura beginning to climb rapidly.
“Grandson, you should understand your grandfather’s purpose in bringing you here. Don’t disappoint me!”
Cao Hong beside him reminded him.
“So, Cao Hong brought his grandson here for a gilded opportunity? Is he treating us as stepping stones?”
Qi Huang reacted immediately, then a wicked smile appeared on her face.
“Don’t worry, Grandfather! She’s just a country girl, with no Immortal bloodline and no strong background. What can she do to fight me?”
Cao Guang replied confidently, then turned to Cheng Hong Ling and said, “Do you know? In these two Continental Evergreen Conventions, I have swept aside all the geniuses of my generation. Now there are only two people left: one is you, and the other is that monstrous Saintess from the Hua Rong Sect. If I don’t defeat you, I can never claim the position of the number one genius of my generation!”
“Hua Rong Sect?”
Upon hearing these three words, Cao Hong’s face showed a thoughtful expression.
“Pfft!”
Qi Huang, who had been silent, laughed upon hearing this.
“Is what I said so funny?”
Cao Guang’s breathing became heavy.
“It is a bit. Let’s not talk about us. I’ve heard of the Hua Rong Sect Saintess’s achievements before. She once crushed the top seven among the Ten Great Monsters of the previous generation at the Zhu Xian Terrace, including your cousin Cao Yang. I really want to know where you got the courage to defeat her?”
Qi Huang asked curiously.
“Cao Yang? Although he is my cousin, I still have to say he is a piece of trash! Sooner or later, I will trample that Hua Rong Sect Saintess under my feet and wash away the shame he brought to the Cao family clan!”
Cao Guang said with full confidence.
Qi Huang shook her head helplessly.
It’s really hard to communicate with such a chuunibyou. A slap would have been enough to make him behave.
“You probably won’t have that chance.”
Cheng Hong Ling shook her head with pity.
“Why?”
Cao Guang asked in confusion.
“Because you won’t even pass my test today.”
Cheng Hong Ling spoke the truth. Her cultivation had reached the second level of the Heavenly Punishment Realm. Let alone Cao Guang, even Cao Hong, she was confident she could contend with.
“Is that so? I hope your strength is as tough as your mouth. After I crush you, only that monstrous Saintess from the Hua Rong Sect will remain. These million onlookers can serve as witnesses.”
Cao Hong was eager to try.
“Haha, the show is about to begin. I didn’t expect to see a top genius competition in the Cultivation World here!”
“It’s called a competition, but it’s actually bullying. This isn’t the Evergreen Convention. With Cao Hong present, would Cheng Hong Ling dare to win?”
“Do you really think Cheng Hong Ling can win? That’s hilarious!”
“Yes, that Cheng Hong Ling has no Immortal bloodline and no strong background. Plus, with Cao Hong intimidating her, how can she win? By seduction?”
“Yes, if the battlefield were in bed, I believe she’d have a slim chance of victory!”
The million onlookers discussed excitedly.
“Make your move!”
Cao Guang invited, being somewhat of a gentleman.
“You go first! I’m afraid you won’t have a chance to counterattack later.”
Cheng Hong Ling reciprocated.
“You…”
Cao Guang was about to say something when he felt a thick hand grab his arm. He looked back and saw his grandfather staring at him with wide eyes, his pupils trembling violently, as if he had seen a ghost.
“Don’t worry, Grandfather! I definitely won’t shame you or the Cao family.”
Cao Guang assured him again.
“Are you sure? Even if she is the Hua Rong Sect Saintess!”
Cao Hong confirmed with a solemn expression.
“What did you say?”
Cao Guang was instantly stunned on the spot.
