Chapter 84 Yu Xiaogang's Incompetent Teammate! Gu Changsheng's Reward: The Great Emperor's Scripture!
The ground cracked and debris flew everywhere.
Two half-step quasi-emperors didn't even have the right to resist.
They knelt down on both knees, embedding themselves deeply into the hard floor.
Their bones were cracking and popping, and blood was gushing out.
"This..."
"Hiss--"
The entire venue was deathly silent.
Everyone stared wide-eyed at the two figures kneeling on the ground.
That's near-quasi-emperors!
They are powerful figures standing at the very top of the world's pyramid!
Yet it turns out...
They were suppressed by Gu Changsheng with just one hand?
They don't even have the right to stand up?
Is this the power of the Heavenly Emperor?
Terrifying!
On the other side...
Although the Divine Prince was not saved by the protectors, an ancient jade pendant at his waist suddenly shattered.
A burst of seven-colored divine light erupted, barely blocking Ye Xian'er's sure-kill sword strike.
That was their trump card for survival.
Even so.
The residual force of that sword strike still sent the Divine Prince flying.
Bang!
The Divine Prince slammed heavily against the wall, creating a large, human-shaped crater in the wall, which was forged from ten-thousand-year-old black iron.
He slid to the ground and coughed up large amounts of blood.
His brocade robe was torn, his hair was disheveled, and he was in a terrible state.
Where is there even a trace of the God-King's descent to earth?
Ye Xian'er sheathed her sword and stood there.
Her white robes remained as pure as snow, untouched by a speck of dust.
She looked at the prince lying on the ground like a dead dog and spoke calmly:
"Who says there are no geniuses among humans?"
"You dare call yourself invincible?"
This sentence.
It was like an even harsher slap landing on the face of the Divine Prince.
It also slapped the faces of all the ancient royal families.
The prince struggled to raise his head, his eyes filled with resentment and bitterness.
"I refuse to accept this..."
"If I hadn't underestimated my opponent..."
"In the future, when we contend for the throne, I will surely slay you!"
He's still being stubborn.
A hint of disdain flashed in Ye Xian'er's eyes.
"If it weren't for the fact that today is Master's birthday banquet, I would not want to see blood."
"You died from that sword strike just now."
"Aren't you going to get lost?"
The prince's face turned pale and then red.
He wanted to argue, but the metallic taste rising in his throat rendered him speechless.
"Young Master..."
"Save us..."
The two guardians who were kneeling on the ground raised their heads with difficulty and begged the Divine Prince for help.
They felt as if their bodies were about to shatter under Gu Changsheng's powerful grip.
The Divine Prince gritted his teeth and looked at Gu Changsheng on the high platform.
Despite his fear, he forced himself to speak:
"Your Majesty the Heavenly Emperor."
"Now that the outcome is decided, please release my protectors."
"The dignity of my ancient royal family cannot be insulted."
Even at this point, he still habitually invoked the power behind him.
Gu Changsheng didn't even glance at him.
He simply picked up his glass and took a small sip.
"Breaking the rules and interfering in the competition."
"According to the law, they should be beheaded."
Four words.
A chilling aura of killing intent emanated from him.
The Divine Prince trembled all over, as if he had fallen into an ice cave.
He sensed the undisguised killing intent emanating from Gu Changsheng.
This man is truly capable of murder!
Even members of the ancient royal family!
"But."
Gu Changsheng changed the subject.
"Since it's a birthday banquet, I don't want to start a bloodbath."
"The death penalty may be waived, but punishment is inescapable."
"If you want me to spare their lives, that's fine too."
Gu Changsheng put down his wine cup and his gaze fell on the Divine Prince.
"Exchange it for a copy of the Great Emperor's Scripture."
Puff!
The Divine Prince nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood.
The two guardians also looked utterly desperate.
The Great Emperor's Scripture?
That's a priceless treasure!
Even ancient royal families possess profound resources; how could they easily reveal them?
"How?"
"You don't want to?"
Gu Changsheng gently pressed the armrest with his fingers.
Click!
The large golden hand pressed down sharply.
The sound of bones shattering emanated from the two protectors, their screams filled with agony.
"Ah--"
"Young Master! Help!"
"Give it to him! I'll give it to you!"
The Divine Prince completely collapsed.
The oppressive feeling of death made it impossible for him to remain calm.
Although the Emperor's scriptures are precious, these two protectors are also pillars of the clan and cannot simply die like this.
Moreover, if he didn't hand it over, he feared he wouldn't be able to leave this Heavenly Court today.
With trembling hands, the Divine Prince pulled out a piece of shimmering bone from his robes.
It was covered with dense Dao patterns, and a phoenix could be faintly seen flying around.
"This is... the Sea of Wheels chapter of the Immortal Scripture..."
The prince's heart was bleeding.
Gu Changsheng reached out and beckoned.
The bone fragment flew into his hand in an instant.
He scanned the area with his divine sense and nodded slightly.
"The Dharma before the Immortal Emperor attained enlightenment."
"It's barely considered a good thing."
After saying that.
He didn't even glance at it, and casually tossed it to Ye Xian'er below the stage.
"Take a look."
Consider this a reward for winning.
The entire site was petrified.
That's the scripture of the Great Emperor!
It is the law of the Immortal Emperor!
You just casually tossed it to your apprentice?
Ye Xian'er caught the bone fragment, and a rare smile appeared on her usually aloof face.
"Thank you, Master."
Everyone around her was filled with envy.
"No wonder the Heavenly Emperor would use the Great Emperor's Scripture as a prize."
"Turns out they didn't care at all."
"As the Heavenly Emperor's disciple, Ye Xian'er must be tired of reading all the scriptures."
"Although the Immortal Scripture is precious, in the eyes of the Heavenly Court, it is probably just an extracurricular reading material."
As the prince listened to these discussions, he felt a tightness in his chest, a sweet taste in his throat, and spat out another mouthful of blood.
This is outrageous!
That's like killing someone by breaking their spirit!
"Let's go!"
The prince could no longer bear to stay there.
As Gu Changsheng's large hand dissipated, the two guardians, feeling as if they had been granted a pardon, quickly got up, grabbed the Divine Prince, and ran outside.
How arrogant they were when they came.
They left in a very disheveled state.
It's like a stray dog.
The human cultivators inside the main hall felt a sense of triumph and exhilaration.
"Cool!"
"That was awesome!"
"Let's see if these ancient creatures dare to be arrogant again!"
At this time.
Li Teng, who was in the corner, was quietly moving towards the door.
He wanted to slip away.
The Divine Prince was just driven away, and he, as the "traitor," is now in a very awkward situation.
Moreover, he was afraid that the Heavenly Emperor would remember what had just happened and come after him.
"Oh? Young Master Li!"
Just as Li Teng stepped one foot out of the threshold of the main hall...
"Wait for me!"
"You haven't brought me with you yet!"
All that could be seen was the steps outside the main hall.
Yu Xiaogang, his head swollen like a pig's, was struggling to crawl toward Li Teng.
He stretched out one hand, his face full of hope.
"I am a master..."
"Take me away..."
Li Teng froze completely.
He turned around and looked at the idiot lying on the ground, and his whole body went numb.
If looks could kill, Yu Xiaogang would have been turned into mincemeat by now.
This good-for-nothing is more likely to cause trouble than accomplish anything!
Can't you see I'm about to sneak away?
Didn't your shout draw everyone's attention?
"Roll!"
Li Teng let out a low growl.
If it weren't for the fact that this was the Heavenly Emperor's birthday banquet, he would have slapped this master to death long ago.
The audience on Douluo Continent burst out laughing.
"Ha ha ha ha!"
"Yu Xiaogang's move was simply divine!"
"Is this what they call a terrible teammate?"
"Li Teng must want to kill someone right now."
"This is hilarious. Even after being beaten up like this, he still tries to suck up to someone else."
Li Teng ignored Yu Xiaogang and turned to leave.
Clang!
A sword light descended.
It completely blocked his way.
It carved a deep trench in the hard ground.
Li Teng paused, raised his head with a grim expression.
Ye Xian'er was standing not far away, her long sword pointing diagonally at the ground.
She looked at him calmly.
"Now that you're here, why rush to leave?"
Ye Xian'er said calmly.
"The Divine Prince ran away so fast that I didn't get to fight him enough."
"I've heard that the bloodline of the Chaotic Ancient Emperor flows through your veins?"
"I'd like to see what they've got."
