Chapter 375 Tiger Generals of the Empire

Pff!

Lin Xun coughed up mouthfuls of blood, and his body throbbed with burning pain. He had sustained significant injuries from the unexpected attack of a Heaven Ascension cultivator. If he hadn’t decisively withdrawn his blade at the critical juncture, the attack would have taken his life!

The power of the Heaven Ascension Stage was evident!

Hua Qiancheng’s sudden interference surprised everyone. Hua Wuhou had proposed the battle of life and death, but her Hua Family shamelessly broke the rules of the battle.

However, unexpectedly, Hua Qiancheng didn’t rescue Hua Wuhou right away when he stepped into the arena. Instead, he aimed a palm strike toward Lin Xun from a distance.

“He has gone too far!”

“Shameless!”

Cultivators of the older generation fumed. It was obvious to them that he wanted to use the opportunity to kill Lin Xun once and for all!

“So hateful!”

Shi Yu, Ning Meng and the others felt a chill go through their bodies as if they had fallen into an ice cave. Hua Qiancheng’s shamelessness and ruthlessness caught them by surprise.

“Despicable!” Spectators who previously looked down on Lin Xun also frowned.

“The Hua Family is too unscrupulous!”

Boom!

However, it was too late to say anything because a terrifying cloud of light had transformed into a jet-black hand. It rapidly slammed down, crushing the air.

Lin Xun’s body stiffened, and his blood and qi seemed to have frozen. It was as though a mighty mountain was pressing on his body! He couldn’t move. Moreover, the frightening power contained in the palm strike destroyed all his thoughts to resist.

However, facing such a sudden unexpected situation, he remained calm and composed. He stood tall in the same spot, a chilling glint flashing in his dark eyes and a jet-black bead glistening in the palm of his hand.

Swoosh—

Spinning, the bead rose into the air and formed layers of dense, terrifying restriction runes. Then, a wave of cryptic energy spread out.

Boom!

Following an earth-shattering explosion as if a tsunami had swept the arena, a devastating pillar of light sprang up. It instantly crushed the surrounding space and annihilated the airflow.

The entire arena shook, producing unbearably sharp whining. The scene was too frightening. It was as though a top Heaven Ascension cultivator was on a rampage and wanted to destroy the world!

Many cultivators screamed in terror seeing such unimaginable power of destruction. Even some influential figures’ expressions morphed and their hearts quivered.

Bang—

Amidst the smoke and dust, Hua Qiangchen cried out in pain and anger while his wrinkly body blasted through the air. With a thud, he smashed into the ground and spurted a mouthful of blood. A high and mighty cultivator of the Heaven Ascension Stage had fallen to the ground in such a discomposed manner.

Hisssss!

The audience froze, their eyes wide open, and jaws dropped.

Lin Xun was in a hopeless situation and couldn’t counterattack, but somehow he managed to resolve his disastrous situation with just a bead! At the same time, he severely wounded great Heaven Ascension cultivator Hua Qiancheng!

It was the power of the Sky Suppressing Bead.

The bead was a rare treasure that Azure Turtle had created to pass time when he was trapped in the ancient ruins. Azure Turtle had only made nine beads during his one thousand years there, but each one contained incredible power that could wound even Heaven Ascension cultivators!

Azure Turtle had generously given Lin Xun three beads when he left the ancient ruins. Lin Xun had always carried them with him and never had the opportunity to use them.

He never thought it would contain such destructive power. Even he was shaken. So strong! Too strong! It is worthy of the name Sky Suppressor!

“You’re just a little junior but you’re so ruthless already. Today, even if I lose my dignity, I have to kill you to serve as a warning to others!” Hua Qiancheng quivered with anger. Lin Xun had wounded him, a high and mighty Heaven Ascension cultivator, under the watchful gazes of everyone. It was the greatest shame to him!

Boom!

Before his voice died away, he made another move. His hair and beard stood up in angry spikes, and his eyes seemed to be shooting out lightning. His imposing manner was so strong that the world paled.

However, Hua Qiancheng had lost his chance because before he acted, an indifferent and dull voice rang out, “Trash!”

The voice shook everyone’s spirit like the roar of the thunder god.

Everyone felt their vision blur before a mighty figure descended upon the arena and made a grabbing motion with his huge fan-like hand.

With a boom, the void collapsed. The giant hand clutched Hua Qiangchen and hurled him to the ground. It was unknown how many bones had been broken in the process, but the old man’s entire body was violently convulsing, and he couldn’t stop coughing up blood.

The audience fell deathly silent. Their eyes brimmed with shock and astonishment as they stared at the mighty figure that appeared out of nowhere.

Hua Qiancheng was a great cultivator of the Heaven Ascension Stage, but he was suppressed in one strike.

Too cruel!

Too unbelievable!

Naturally, the mighty figure was Third Old Zhu. He had come to the arena with Lin Xun, and he couldn’t tolerate Hua Qiancheng attempting to kill Lin Xun.

“Third Old Zhu, kill him!” Lin Xun ordered without any hesitation, his voice chilly and murderous.

His interference in the battle of life and death not only made Lin Xun miss the opportunity to kill Hua Wuyou but also almost cost his life.

How could Lin Xun still be polite to him?

Third Old Zhu nodded and marched towards Hua Qiancheng in large strides. His face was devoid of emotion, and his mighty body exuded an unparalleled, imposing aura that made everyone in the audience pale.

Lin Xun is ruthless!

Hua Qiancheng likely didn’t expect this to happen when he intervened in the battle, right?

“How dare you? You think you can bully the Hua Clan?” A deep, imposing voice reverberated in the air before a majestic-looking man stood in front of Hua Qiancheng.

As he stood there gracefully and calmly in a loose, wide-sleeved robe, he exuded majesty like a king looking over the world.

Hua Qinglin!

He was a renowned Heaven Ascension cultivator of the Hua Family. He held the Lieutenant General position of the imperial army and had fifty years of experience fighting on the battlefield. He had slaughtered countless fierce enemies, and his hands were stained with blood. He was one of the Five Tiger Generals of the Empire!

The audience inhaled sharply upon seeing Hua Qinglin stand forward. The duel was too thrilling with the endless changes!

“Haha, you are going too far.” Lin Xun chuckled, but his dark eyes were still icy.

“Your Hua Family have set the rules, but you also broke them. Aren’t you too shameless?”

Lin Xun was completely enraged. He didn’t care what identity Hua Qinglin had. “That’s not all. Your Hua Family dispatched Heaven Ascension cultivators to kill a junior. I’ve never seen something as shameless,” he scolded without hesitation.

He was right! They were at Sky Martial Arena and it was a duel! Rules had to be followed!

However, the Hua Family went back on their words in front of countless people, broke the rules, and disregarded everything. Who wouldn’t be enraged?

Hua Qinglin’s eyes narrowed slightly as he uttered, “Little junior, you have a death wish!”

He looked elegant and graceful, but he was a fierce, ruthless character. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have received the name of one of the Five Tiger Generals of the Empire.

As his voice rang out, his aura drastically changed. Monstrous, murderous intent and bloodthirst shrouded him like he had transformed into a warrior on the battlefield.

Almost at the same time, Third Old Zhu’s eyes glinted coldly, and his mighty figure erupted with a murderous aura and iron will.

“Oh? I can tell that you’re also a warrior on the battlefield. Why do you want to work for this kid? Hurry and move aside or I will punish you according to the military rules!” Hua Qinglin’s pupils shrank when he sensed Third Old Zhu’s aura. Then, he issued an order like he was a general commanding thousands of troops.

“I have been discharged from the army for many years now. You can’t make me retreat.”

“Then don't blame me for being rude!”

Just as a duel between two great cultivators of the Heaven Ascension Stage was about to break out, a long sigh sounded. “General Hua, Sky Martial Arena is not a territory of your Hua Family.”

A stout middle-aged man in a luxurious robe and a little round hat suddenly appeared in the arena. With his hands inserted in his sleeves, he looked like an honest businessman.

However, no one dared to underestimate the middle-aged man because he had the surname Zhao. His name was Tailai and was the owner of Sky Martial Arena! Most importantly, Zhao Tailai was a member of the imperial family!

His appearance surprised many people. Zhao Tailai rarely involved himself with such affairs. However, he strangely appeared and wanted to stop Hua Qinglin.

“You want to stop me?” Hua Qinglin scrunched his brows.

“Your Hua Family is the one who broke the rules first. I came because I don’t want to let this matter continue to worsen,” sighed Zhao Tailai.

“What if I don’t agree?”

Hua Qinglin’s expression was ice-cold. The others might be afraid of Zhao Tailai because of his identity, but he wasn’t. In his eyes, there were many kinds of imperial family members. It just so happened that Zhao Tailai wasn't worthy of his fear.

Everyone in the audience gasped. Hua Qinglin is so obnoxious. His Hua Family is in the wrong, but he still refuses to stop.

But this is the style of the Hua Family. Among the seven high clans, the Hua Family has always been known for being domineering.

“No, General Hua, you must agree this time.” Unexpectedly, Zhao Tailai stood his ground and his expression was resolute. “This isn’t just my wish. General Hua, please reconsider your action.”

Hua Qinglin felt a chill in his heart, and he fell silent.

Everyone could understand the implied meaning. It turns out that Zhao Tailai dared to stop Hua Qinglin so strongly because he was ordered to do so!

Simply speaking, someone had asked Zhao Tailai to come forward to stop all this. Who could command Zhao Tailai, the owner of Sky Martial Arena?

“Hmph!”

Hua Qinglin snorted coldly, and his eyes swept over Lin Xun like icy blades. Then, he stormed off the arena with Hua Qiancheng and Hua Wuyou.

The entire audience breathed a sigh of relief. If Hua Qinglin went crazy, it would be too terrifying.

It was good that a duel could be resolved in such a way.

After all, in any case, it was already very good that Lin Xun managed to survive against the domineering and powerful Hua Family.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xun said aloud, “You want to leave? It’s not that easy. Third Old Zhu, capture them for me!” His voice was sonorous.
