Chapter 129: Crippling Song s.h.i.+jie

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Everyone was stunned right away. Song s.h.i.+jie proposed that he, as a representative from the Holy Dragon Corporation, was to form an alliance uniting all the forces of Min Province. While the alliance was said to be formed for the sake of uniting all the forces within the province, there was no doubt it was actually meant to put all forces under the rule of the Holy Dragon Corporation.

Lu Xuan mentioned that right there and then, and it was obvious that he intended to reign over the powers found throughout the entire Min Province as well.

Two parties intended to do so, with one being a foreign behemoth and the other being the local giant.

The fundamental nature of such an alliance remained unchanged.

The cultivators of the province remained a scattered bunch when a representative from the Holy Dragon Corporation crashed the gate, making them all easy to put down due to not having a leader that could have ruled them all.

Over half of those present were compelled to kneel before the corporation as soon as Song s.h.i.+jie made his proposal. With the exception of a handful of people, the ones who had yet to yield were already thinking of yielding, and it was only a matter of time before they yielded anyway.

That was because not only did the corporation being of great influence in all walks of life, but that the corporation also packed the level of firepower that all of them sorely lack. Therefore, the corporation had all they needed to make all who were present yield.

All who remained adamant in their resistance would be finished off on the spot.

There was then, finally, someone from the province who was capable of standing up against such a giant. In comparison to the Holy Dragon Corporation, Lu Xuan did undoubtedly felt to be the better choice.

Lu Xuan, despite his formidable, overwhelming powers, was but one man, which meant that he would not have been able to actually meddle in their affairs. The alliance would have been a loose one.

If the corporation were to be the boss of them instead, it would have been akin to having a noose around their neck at all times, making it difficult to go about their respective businesses.

The only thing that the crowd was unsure of was if Lu Xuan was capable of holding his own against the Holy Dragon Corporation’s retaliation.

“I’m all for it!”

Ling Huang took Ling Fei along and stood by Lu Xuan’s side, not long after Lu Xuan made the proposal.

Many who had been unable to pick their sides in time went to Lu Xuan’s side.

There were even many who had initially chosen to side with Song s.h.i.+jie switching sides, backing Lu Xuan instead.

The way Lu Xuan killed Wen Ziteng had driven quite a shock into their minds, after all.

That one attack made them realize thoroughly just how powerful he truly was.

“You all… so that’s how you want to play it!”

Song s.h.i.+jie was extremely frustrated. He had organized the event to declare his intentions and have a bunch of rich people back him up, yet all of his efforts ended up working in Lu Xuan’s favor instead.

Song s.h.i.+jie’s expression was quite complex. He truly felt betrayed at the moment, even though those people around him had only yielded due to his overwhelming show of power. Still, seeing them flooding to Lu Xuan’s side made him feel extremely defeated nonetheless.

“Just you wait, all of you! You all shall pay for the humiliation I have suffered today! None of you will get away with this!”

Song s.h.i.+jie turned around and walked away in frustration and anger. There was no point in him staying around, and he would have only been insulted further.

“Hold on for a minute!” Lu Xuan said all of a sudden.

“What more do you want?”

Lu Xuan stood up and said, “I did say I’m a fair person earlier. You crippled one of my men, and now I shall cripple you. That will make us even.”

Song s.h.i.+jie froze as soon as he heard that. He shouted with a croaked voice, “You dare!”

It was the first time fear was truly seen in his eyes. He dared to step on Lu Xuan because he was confident of the powers behind him—the Holy Dragon Corporation. He had no fear whatsoever, even if the one he had to face off with was the newly crowned number one in the province.

The name of the corporation that he wore so proudly on his sleeve enabled him to do anything he pleased, and that boosted his ego too much.

It was only right there and then that he truly felt fear.

Lin Miaoyi, who was by Lu Xuan’s side, felt that Song s.h.i.+jie was simply too much of a fool for thinking that the repute and renown of the corporation were still of any use to him now.

He failed to realize that he was no longer dealing with a lone cultivator without a foundation, but a monster every bit on par with Song Lingfeng—the Great Ancestor.

Lin Miaoyi had told the Lin Clan to send her all they were able to gather about Lu Xuan during the short span of time after she realized who Lu Xuan was.

It did not take her long to know just what kind of a monster Lu Xuan truly was.

Lu Xuan went all the way to Dian Province and wiped out an overlord cla.s.s force on a whim. The mettle shown by one such monster simply meant that he would not let those who wronged him slide simply because the Holy Dragon Corporation backed those people.

Song s.h.i.+jie’s first instinct was to flee, yet he quickly realized that he was pinned down where he stood by an overwhelmingly terrifying aura.

It was difficult for him to move even a muscle.

It was worth noting that despite not yet becoming a National Guardian, he was not actually all that far off from becoming one. It was only a matter of time before he made a breakthrough and became a National Guardian.

Yet, one look from Lu Xuan, and he already felt hardly be able to breathe.

“How is this possible? I don’t believe this!”

Song s.h.i.+jie mobilized his Qi, intending to break the lockdown imposed by Lu Xuan’s aura; however, he quickly found that no matter how hard he tried, he remained unable to make the breakthrough, making him feel like he had been plunged into quicksand.

“Mr. Lu, please let Young Master Song off just this once!”

At that moment, Li Hongjun had no choice but to speak on Song s.h.i.+jie’s behalf. He was too entangled with Song s.h.i.+jie for him to consider other options.

“Who do you think you are? Get out of my sight!”

Lu Xuan smirked and waved his hand, blasting Li Hongjun away.

While Li Hongjun has had a few years of martial arts practice and was in good shape, he was still no match for the likes of Lu Xuan. The air blast from that move was enough to blow him away.

“You dare to act against me! The Holy Dragon Corporation is not going to let you off easy. The Great Ancestor will come for you!”

Song s.h.i.+jie was thoroughly fl.u.s.tered by then. All that he had been relying on was rendered thoroughly useless before Lu Xuan.

“Tell that old fart Song Lingfeng to show up in the flesh then!” Lu Xuan chuckled coldly. “I can’t believe a dumb*ss who did something so stupid, just because a woman egged you on, actually comes from the Song Clan. How awfully dumb of you, indeed.”

Song s.h.i.+jie was thoroughly struck with terror by then.

“Mr. Lu, I’m truly, truly sorry. I shouldn’t have listened to Luo Ying.”

Song s.h.i.+jie then added immediately, “Please, just let me go this once!”

Song s.h.i.+jie finally yielded. The image that he had built for himself earlier crumbled altogether. All that imposing air of his before the formidable ones of the Min Province was no more.

“You heard of a saying? It seems to go, ‘If apologies were of any use, why would there be cops?’”

Lu Xuan’s expression remained cold as he went up and kicked Song s.h.i.+jie in the abdomen, landing squarely on his Dantian.

Song s.h.i.+jie felt all that Spiritual Qi that he had painstakingly built up dissipate at a frightening rate.

His face became as ashen as a zombie’s right away.

Not everyone was like Lu Xuan, who could easily heal damage to the Dantian, after all.

Any common folk with such damage would most definitely end up being crippled for life.

The crowd was silent as they saw what happened.

Song s.h.i.+jie, who pretended as if he was a G.o.d and had looked down on everyone else not that long ago, had all his cultivation destroyed right there and then, reducing him to a mere mortal.

It was a scene that felt exhilarating to behold.
