War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens

Swoosh!

After the fiery beam of light disappeared, everyone watched in stunned silence as a shadow shot into the glove on Tang San Pao’s right hand.

“He possessed an Emperor Grade Celestial Weapon with a weapon spirit as well!”

At this time, Zhou Yong Qi could no longer be seen in the battle ring. The only things left of him were his Spatial Ring and Celestial Weapon, which were lying quietly on the ground. The Celestial Weapon was slightly damaged while the Spatial Ring was badly damaged.

Swoosh!

Xu Kong Hai, the Vice Temple Master of the main Title Temple, waved his hand, sending a stream of energy to send Zhou Yong Qi’s Spatial Ring and Celestial Weapon to Zhou Bing Wu, the Heavenly Emperor of the Equally Prosperous Heaven.

“Heavenly Emperor Zhou, my condolences,” Xu Kong Hai said emotionlessly. Despite his words, he clearly could not care less about Zhou Bing Wu’s reaction. After all, Zhou Bing Wu was only a Heavenly Emperor who was ranked fourth on the Heavenly Emperors ranking. If he wanted to kill Zhou Bing Wu, there was nothing Zhou Bing Wu could do at all.

“Tang San Pao!” Zhou Bing Wu roared. He did not even spare a glance at his true disciple’s belongings, which Xu Kong Hai had sent over. His hair fluttered in the air along with his robes. The void around him rippled and distorted as he glared at Tang San Pan.

Boom!

Zhou Bing Wu flew out in just a blink of an eye. Terrifying energy began to roll off him as he flew toward Tang San Pao like a bullet. “You have to die for killing my disciple!”

“Enough!” Xu Kong Hai said pointedly with a dark expression. He did not expect Zhou Bing Wu to have the courage to make a move. He pushed his hand out, and a palm-shaped energy that could cover the sky shot toward Zhou Bing Wu.

Zhou Bing Wu’s expression changed drastically. He had been so angry that he had lost his composure and made a move. Now that he calmed down, he recalled that all the participants were protected by the Title Temple during the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. Nevertheless, he still protested. “Vice Temple Master Xu, he killed my disciple.”

“All the participants knew they’re risking their lives when participating in the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses,” Xu Kong Hai said. Then, he lifted his hand again.

Another palm-shaped energy shot toward the air above Zhou Bing Wu before it smacked Zhou Bing Wu, along with his elderly attendant, down to the ground. Zhou Bing Wu’s elderly attendant died immediately while Zhou Bing Wu was severely injured. He could barely stand up and kept vomiting blood.

Everyone was in shock and awe. The power Xu Kong Hai demonstrated seemed stronger than that of an ordinary god. In the past, they had heard rumors that Xu Kong Hai was stronger than an ordinary god. Now that they saw Xu Kong Hai’s casual display of strength today, they finally confirmed the rumor was true! In fact, he was even more terrifying than the rumor said. Xu Kong Hai easily defeated a Heavenly Emperor with just a wave of his hand. Moreover, it was obvious he was holding back. Otherwise, Zhou Bing Wu would definitely die.

“Thank you for showing mercy, Vice Temple Master Xu.” Although Zhou Bing Wu was severely injured by Xu Hong Kai, he did not dare to show any anger or dissatisfaction on his face at all. In fact, he felt a little regretful that he had forgotten about Xu Kong Hai and the Title Temple’s rules for the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses.

Although there had been many Devata Realms’ Battles of the Geniuses, there were rarely any disturbances during the competition. This was because very few dared to cause a commotion. Those who caused trouble would be killed. For this reason, Zhou Bing Wu was aware that he was lucky to be alive.

Xu Kong Hai scoffed but did not make another move. It was clear that he was going to let the matter go.

Zhou Bing Wu shifted his gaze to Tang San Pao. Hatred and killing intent rose in his eyes again as he contemplated his revenge in the future. Although he could not kill Tang San Pao today, he would have many chances to do so after the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses ended. He was determined to make Tang San Pao pay with his life for killing his true disciple.

“What are you looking at?” Tang San Pao said tonelessly when he saw Zhou Bing Wu glaring at him, “Heavenly Emperor Zhou, do you plan to kill me after the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses ends?”

Zhou Bing Wu sneered. His silence was tantamount to him agreeing with Tang San Pao’s words.

Tang San Pao smiled faintly. “I have a piece of advice for you. If you want to live, it’s best if you dismiss that idea…”

“Why? You dared to kill my disciple but you’re afraid of bearing the consequences…” Zhou Bing Wu said with a sneer. He did not hide his intention of wanting to kill Tang San Pao after the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses was over.

…

At the spectator seats.

“Does Zhou Bing Wu have a death wish?” Su Li said. He was rendered speechless by Zhou Bing Wu’s actions.

“Ignorance can be deadly.” Duan Ling Tian shook his head. It was clear that Zhou Bing Wu was unaware that Tang San Pao was from the Title Temple. Zhou Bing Wu clearly thought Xu Kong Hai had only made a move to enforce the rules of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses.

…

“Zhou Bing Wu,” Xu Kong Hai called out as soon as Zhou Bing Wu finished speaking. He did not hide his killing intent as he said frostily, “I let you live because you did a good job with the task I entrusted to you previously. However, do you really think I won’t kill you?”

Zhou Bing Wu was dumbfounded when he heard Xu Kong Hai’s words. He did not understand why Xu Kong Hai was so angry when he no longer violated the rules of the Devata Realms’ Battle of the Geniuses. He wondered if Tang San Pao had made some sort of agreement with Tang San Pao, and Tang San Pao had agreed to join the Title Temple. With this thought in mind, he asked, “Vice Temple Master Xu, has Tang San Pao agreed to join the Title Temple?” After a beat, he added, “If he has agreed to join the Title Temple, I’ll dismiss all thoughts of revenge…”

Zhou Bing Wu only wanted confirmation at this moment.

Xu Kong Hai scoffed before saying tonelessly, “He’s already one of us, to begin with.”

Xu Kong Hai’s words shocked everyone.

“What?! Tang San Pao’s from the Title Temple?”

“Isn’t he a sectless cultivator? How did he end up being with the Title Temple?”

“Based on his attack earlier, Tang Sao already possessed the strength of Six Star God of War. The Title Temple really raised an outstanding genius!”

“How? How did he suddenly become one of those from the Title Temple?”

Most people were shocked. It was already shocking enough that Tang San Pao was as strong as a Six Star God of War. They had yet to recover from the shock when they learned Tang San Pao was with the Title Temple all along. Since Tang San Pao revealed his true strength until now, there was no lack of exciting twists and turns.

“Tang San Pao is my Junior Nephew; the only true disciple of my reclusive Senior Brother,” Xu Kong Hai said, “Although my Senior Brother lives in seclusion, he holds a position in the temple. Tang San Pao is the heir of the Title Temple in the future, but you want to kill him?”

Zhou Bing Wu’s expression changed drastically upon hearing these words. Not only was Tang San Pao from the Title Temple, but he was also the heir of the Title Temple? He still had a hard time believing the person who killed his true disciple had such a powerful identity. If he had known about this earlier, he would not have dared to provoke and offend Tang San Pao.

After a beat, Zhou Bing Wu suppressed his raging emotions and hurriedly waved his hands as he said, “Vice Temple Master Xu, it’s a misunderstanding! It’s truly a misunderstanding!”

After saying that, Zhou Bing Wu looked at Tang San Pao. The fear in his eyes and face were apparent to all to see.

At this moment, many of the Heavenly Emperors sympathized with him. However, their sympathy was like that of fox grieves when the hare had died.

Zhou Bing Wu was ranked fourth on the Heavenly Emperor rankings; he was a Nine Star God of War. However, he was now groveling like a dog. This scene reminded them again of how terrifyingly powerful the Title Temple was. They could easily kill a Heavenly Emperor who was a Nine Star God of War. Perhaps, only the Heavenly Emperors who had attained godhood would dare to oppose them.

Ding Fu who was seated next to Feng Qing Yang suddenly looked at the sky in the distance.

“Is he finally coming out?” Feng Qing Yang looked up at the sky as well.

“Brother Feng, what’s…”

Before Ding Fu finished his sentence, he followed the direction of Feng Qing Yang’s gaze and saw a silhouette of a person emerging from the clouds. Most importantly, the figure was making their way toward them.
