The Steward Demonic Emperor

Chapter 752: Ender

Proofreader: Papatonks

A shock like no other overrode their minds and all common sense.

Everyone was now watching with empty eyes as Gu Santong stood in the air. 

“Z-Z-Zhuo Fan, what the hell is that kid of yours?” Fiend Yang gulped. The others were looking at the grand Steward Zhuo with overwhelming emotions. 

He did not reply and ordered instead, “Everyone scatter! Get some distance from them!”

Zhuo Fan was the first to move back, with others quick to react, flying a thousand meters. While the Mystical Heaven Sect’s side were still too stunned to react, not even noticing their movements. They just stood there, watching Gu Santong with a dumb look.

“This distance should be safe.”

Zhuo Fan sighed, “Do you know why I had young Sanzi come out now to fight?”

They just shook their empty minds, still dazed.

Zhuo Fan chuckled, “Because this kid has a foul temper and mean strength. Once he gets worked up, nothing can stop him. Our main objective you all know, is to teach Mystical Heaven Sect a lesson, crush their attitude, not destroy them. Or Double Dragon Manor will not sit still.”

The oldies nodded. No matter how many conflicts there were between sects, Double Dragon Manor would never allow for them to blow out into a bloody war and weaken the western lands. 

“Only as a last resort could I let this troublesome kid out. Or one strike from him could even wipe this thousands of years old sect off the face of this world.”

Zhuo Fan sighed, “A shame they just don’t listen, insisting on making me take out my last move. They reap what they sow. It’s not my fault at all.”

[Dude, we’re the invaders here.]

Fiend Yang scratched his nose and felt helpless. 

[Steward Zhuo is such a dirtbag. He has no morals. You came here to mess them up and you expect them to welcome you with wide smiles?]

Then again, those were demonic cultivators for you. Especially Steward Zhuo’s arrogant self-righteous kind, they were everywhere. 

However, there was something he failed to see. “Steward Zhuo, is your son that strong? The Mystical Heaven Sect is still a sect…”

“Don’t believe me? Watch. My kid was known as an ender in Tianyu, destroying everything in his path.” Zhuo Fan shrugged.

Everyone frowned, then focused on the fight. Just in time to see Gu Santong walking for the Mystical Heaven Sect with an obnoxious attitude, like none were up to his standards.

“Uhm, Steward Zhuo, your son is your spitting image of your heroism and brutality, ha-ha-ha…” Venerable Bai chuckled.

Zhuo Fan shrugged and smiled.

The Heavenly Cycle Elders watched Gu Santong’s insufferable attitude and were fuming mad. They knew the kid was more than he seemed, but his blatant disdain was getting to these elders’ nerves.

“Enough of your arrogance, kid. We have underestimated you before, but don’t think you will get rid of us so easily!”

“Really? Then let’s continue!”

Gu Santong snickered and hooked a finger in mockery, “You’re all bark and no bite. Come and get me if you want!”

Heavenly Cycle Elders were red with rage. Mystical Heaven Sect’s side cried out, worried by their looks about the terrible kid.

This was the first time seeing someone humiliate their four venerables. 

[Though he does have the strength…]

They looked on with bated breaths as the two sides were ready for a grand battle.

The four elders made signs, followed by draconic roars. Four dragons took to the skies. 

Yellow light shone from the ground beneath and bathed the dragons, transforming them into a yellow dragon hundreds of meters long.

The thick pressure was crushing on everyone’s shoulders, and it was all focused on Gu Santong.

However, the kid’s face fell a bit and that was it.

The audience, even Demon Scheming Sect’s side a thousand meters out were gasping from shock.

This power was hundreds of times stronger than what the four unleashed before.

Han Qianying was bug eyed, “T-this is the Four Elements Cycle Array?”

Fiend Yang saw the formation and cried as well. His face was heavy. It was an array that was made by Radiant Stage experts and defeated four Ethereal Stage experts. Now that four peak Ethereal Stage experts formed it, its power must be unimaginable.

“The Four Elements Cycle Array borrows the power of the earth and four elements to unleash the world’s energy. Its power is endless. I fear that not even an early Soul Harmony Stage expert can block an array formed by the four High Venerables. That child is in danger…” Shui Ruohua was worried.

They all turned their eyes on Zhuo Fan, but he was as calm as ever.

Ye Lin was a Qilin. His soul and body were one to begin with. Reaching the Soul Harmony Stage would hardly make a difference to him. 

[Since Ye Lin could do it earlier, so can young Sanzi, but his will be stronger.

Sect Leader Xuan saw the four venerables unleash such might and wrote off the kid as dead already, ignoring him, “Ha-ha-ha, get ready for a funeral. You must’ve seen the power of Four Elements Cycle Array, but I must tell you that it is far deadlier in the hands of the venerables. Even more so when the venerables aren’t using the Four Elements Cycle Array, but the stronger one, Heavenly Cycle Dragon Array, formed by using four earth dragon souls. Your end is nigh!”

Xuan Shaoyu heard his dad brag and laughed as well, looking the part of the winning side.

Mystical Heaven Sect snickered. Demon Scheming Sect was silent, gnashing their teeth. Only Zhuo Fan just watched Gu Santong as he said, “Young Sanzi…”

“It’s fine.” Gu Santong waved his hand. His face was hard, but still mocked, “Before me, even earth dragon souls are nothing more than worms.”

Zhuo Fan knew where young Sanzi’s confidence came from. His body was that of a Qilin, his soul that of a sacred beast. Not even a heaven dragon soul could top that!

Zhuo Fan just eased a breath and relaxed.

Young Sanzi’s confidence was seen as a joke by the Heavenly Cycle Elders, mocking him, “Ignorant young devil, do you even know what earth dragon soul is known for? It connects to the world. By combining with the earth, one’s power grows tens of times. It’s unlike the previous dragon soul you beat. “

“And? They’re still worms!”

Gu Santong mocked and taunted, “If you don’t strike, I’ll do it first!”

The Heavenly Cycle Elders was outraged, “Damn brat, you have the nerve to mock us? It’s best we get rid of you at once with all we have!”

The four made a sign in unison, then pointed at Gu Santong. The huge dragon roared and charged at the little figure.

Everyone watched with their hearts in their throat. Only the few who believed in young Sanzi’s strength were calm.

Roar!

Along with the draconic roar, the dragon soul slammed down, making the ground cave in thousands of meters. 

Despite not feeling the dragon’s brunt force, they could still feel the aftermath, the biting winds that cut at their skin. 

They were overwhelmed. The power was so incredible even bystanders would suffer from a stray wind. Just how would that kid stand it?

When the eyes turned to Gu Santong, they were stumped once more. The kid wasn’t harmed in the slightest, as if he was only standing in a mild rain. 

Gu Santong looked up at the incoming lizard, and took a deep breath. His body flashed scarlet, his eyes shining as he got ready to lash out with the might of a true Qilin. His body as well was itching to strike and explode with power…
