Fate-Defying Demon Emperor

Chapter 99: Chapter 99: I Want to Fight Ten

Everyone was flabbergasted!

This outcome was beyond anyone’s expectations. They all stood with gaping mouths and wide eyes, utterly astonished.

Ye Chen had actually lost?

Ye Chen’s fame was far greater than Su Han’s. At a young age, he had achieved Sword Heart Clarity, comprehended Sword Intent, and become a powerful sword cultivator. Moreover, he had a history of brilliant and dazzling achievements, having shone in the sect’s major competitions, secret realm explorations, and the battles for the Qingyun List.

Within Tianxuan Peak, the foremost disciple in the Phenomenon Realm was Qian Xuan, while the first in the Heavenly Human Realm was Ye Chen. His strength was beyond question.

Before this battle, everyone had thought Ye Chen’s intervention would undoubtedly turn the tables, defeat Su Han, and restore Tianxuan Peak’s honor. But no one expected that not only was Ye Chen defeated, but he had been completely suppressed by Su Han from beginning to end.

What did this mean?

It meant that Su Han’s strength was not just a little bit greater than Ye Chen’s; this was a completely one-sided, crushing victory. Previously, everyone thought that Su Han, a new disciple daring to block the gate and rob them, was simply suicidal. Now, it was clear he had not only the guts but also the power to back it up.

With Ye Chen’s defeat, no one from Tianxuan Peak could beat Su Han unless they deployed a disciple from the Phenomenon Realm. But if a Phenomenon Realm disciple were to take action, it would be tantamount to admitting Su Han was invincible within his own realm. This would be a blow to the Dao Heart of the other disciples and would utterly disgrace Tianxuan Peak.

”If Heaven had not birted our Boss Su, the Martial Path would be an eternal night!”

”He grasps the sun and moon and plucks the stars from the sky; there is no one else like him in this world!”

Ning Feifan waved his banner and roared, his face flushed red with extreme excitement. His shouts felt like invisible slaps, striking the faces of the Tianxuan Peak disciples and causing them to blush with overwhelming shame and indignation. But with Ye Chen now defeated, for them to attack would be no different from asking for humiliation.

Just as the disciples of Tianxuan Peak were in a bind, Su Han proactively offered them a solution.

”I’ll give you a chance. Ten of you can fight me. I’ll take on ten!” Su Han said indifferently, his words causing an uproar.

”Fighting ten at once? Is he insane? That’s unbelievably arrogant!”

”He’s strong one-on-one, it’s true. Even Ye Chen was no match for him. But to claim he can fight ten at once is far too presumptuous. Everyone who enters the Seven Stars Sect is a genius. Ten of us working together could even contend with a Phenomenon Realm expert. Isn’t he afraid of being carried out of here unconscious?”

”He’s drunk on his own success! A scoundrel like that is doomed to achieve nothing great. I bet he’ll be defeated miserably this time!”

Su Han’s arrogant challenge instantly provoked the crowd’s fury. Even the disciples from the other Spirit Peaks couldn’t bear to watch. The disciples of Tianxuan Peak were even more livid, seething with a rage they could barely contain.

”Su Han, you are indeed strong, but to fight ten alone is just too arrogant! I, Mo Fan, am the first to object!” a dark-skinned young man shouted as he stepped forward, glaring at Su Han. He was a powerful expert at the Eighth Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm and a prodigy on the Qingyun List, with strength comparable to Wang Ziming.

”Senior Brother Mo Fan, I’ll join you! I’ve long found that scoundrel to be an eyesore,” a woman in green robes declared as she flew out and landed beside Mo Fan. She was another powerful expert at the Seventh Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm.

Soon, ten people from Tianxuan Peak stepped forward, none below the Sixth Layer of the Heavenly Human Realm. Their strengths varied, but each possessed an extraordinary demeanor. Among them were three prodigies from the Qingyun List, making for a truly spectacular lineup. They formed a circle, trapping Su Han in the center.

WHOOSH!

Without a single wasted word, Su Han executed the Character Technique of Motion and charged the nearest person.

”Draw Sword Slash!”

Using the Character Secret of Combat to empower his technique, the Black Blade descended like a bolt of lightning. The disciple had clearly not expected Su Han to attack first, and his response was hasty. His strength was already inferior to Su Han’s, and now, having lost the initiative, he was struck squarely by the blade. He spat out a mouthful of blood and was sent flying backward, grievously wounded and defeated.

It was too fast!

Everyone was used to sparring bouts where opponents would hold back, never launching surprise attacks or using lethal force. They couldn’t believe Su Han could be so ruthless and decisive.

”Attack with your full strength! We must defeat him!” Mo Fan roared. He hefted a double-bladed iron axe, his arm muscles bulging as he brought it down on Su Han with the force to split Mount Hua.

At the same time, the woman in green wielded a thin sword, her swordsmanship elusive and swift as she aimed lethal thrusts at Su Han’s throat and temples. Another disciple held a blue Spiritual Pearl, causing streams of water to spread out like tentacles, attempting to wrap around Su Han to hinder his speed and bind his limbs.

The remaining nine disciples attacked with everything they had, unleashing their skills in a simultaneous assault. Flashes of blades and swords mingled with burning flames, flowing water, and arrays of Spirit Talismans. The air crackled with dazzling, colorful energies, and the terrifying fluctuations made one’s scalp tingle as if doomsday had arrived.

”Dragon Phoenix Protection!”

Golden Qi-Blood surged within Su Han’s body, causing the Dragon Phoenix Protection to shine with a brilliant light. Its defensive power was astonishing, and it blocked all the incoming attacks. He then employed the Character Technique of Motion, weaving through the crowd as fast as lightning and preventing his opponents from surrounding him.

”Draw Sword Slash!”

”Body Binding Technique!”

”Nine Blades as One: Decisive Slash!”

”Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist!”

Su Han attacked with full force, his left fist clenched and his right hand wielding his blade. Golden Fist Blazes and dark slashes from his blade carved through the crowd, unstoppable in their advance. One by one, disciples were struck and sent flying, crashing to the ground gravely injured and out of the fight.

Shrill cries of agony echoed endlessly. Crimson blood stained the ground, and the pungent, nauseating smell of it filled the air.

In the blink of an eye, Su Han had defeated most of the disciples, leaving only Mo Fan and the woman in green.

”Body Binding Technique!”

Su Han’s Divine Sense surged forth, unleashing a minor Divine Prohibition that completely immobilized the woman in green. She was known for her agile and tricky swordsmanship, as well as a significant movement technique, but this attack stripped her of her greatest advantages.

Her expression changed drastically. ”Senior Brother Mo Fan, save me!” she cried out in panic.

Mo Fan’s face was ashen as he charged forward. Spiritual Energy erupted from his body, and the double-bladed iron axe in his hands began to glow with a bright yellow light.

”Earth Rank Low Level Martial Technique: Mighty Spirit Open Mountain!”

Mo Fan unleashed his Earth Rank Martial Technique with all his might. Heaven and earth resonated, and a vague, colossal figure materialized behind him, like a mighty spirit of infinite strength. The double-bladed iron axe crashed down with an unstoppable force that could have split a thousand-foot mountain.

However, Su Han paid him no heed. His Black Blade flashed like lightning, accurately striking the woman in green. She immediately spat blood and was sent flying, grievously wounded and defeated.

CLANG!

At that moment, the double-bladed iron axe crashed down. The blow was so formidable it even cracked the Dragon Phoenix Protection.

”Golden Emperor Tanyang Fist!”

Su Han turned, his left fist clenched. The Golden Emperor Phantom materialized as he threw a punch that seemed to make heaven and earth roar. Mo Fan could not withstand the blow. His arms shattered, the iron axe slipped from his grasp, and he plummeted headfirst to the ground, smashing a large crater into the earth with a THUD.

With that, the siege of ten had ended in their complete and utter defeat.
