Chapter 1036: Instant Kill

Translator: Yukidaruma Translations  Editor: Yukidaruma Translations

Hearing the duo’s judgment, a hint of joy flashed on Prince Xin’s face. However, there was still a deep feeling of wariness in his eyes.

‘A Tiangang Realm expert like them poses too great a threat.

‘Ordinary armies won’t be able to do anything to them.

‘Probably only the besiegement by a great army of 500,000-man or greater would be able to oppress them through pressurizing them with their Qi field.

‘It’s no wonder that generations of our Great Jin Dynasty’s Emperors have been so wary against the Three Mountains Four Peaks.

‘If the dynasty is prosperous and possesses a military force of millions of soldiers and several thousand Disha Realm experts, we’ll be able to easily suppress these Tiangang Realm experts. However, once we reach a chaotic era, these Tiangang Realm experts and sects from the pugilistic world will be unstable elements that stir up unrest.’

Although Xiao Shen helped Prince Xin to take care of his opponent this time around, it also made Prince Xin increasingly wary toward these experts from the pugilistic world. He contemplated the thought that if he were to successfully rule over the world, he would definitely train troops for battle, groom up a great military force, and get rid of these Tiangang Realm experts.

‘In comparison to the Demon Sect, the Three Mountains Four Peaks have been in Middle-earth for several centuries and their accumulated strength has become increasingly terrifying.’

Through the contact Prince Xin had with them during this period of time, he gained an increasingly better understanding of how deep and unfathomable the Three Mountains Four Peaks were. In comparison to the seven Tiangang Realm experts that the Demon Sect had, the Three Mountains Four Peaks were a lot stronger. At the very least, based on the characters that Prince Xin was aware of, there were at least ten Tiangang Realm experts.

Take for example these three old men in front of him. They were all Tiangang Realm experts. It was because of their great accumulated strength that the Three Mountains Four Peaks could interfere in the world’s trends like this.

Furthermore, there was still Xiao Shen. His performance in this battle caused Prince Xin to be secretly shocked.

The thin old man from the Three Mountains Four Peaks nodded and said, “Prince Xin, you can send your people to clean up the battlefield. We’ll be by your side to protect you as you take over the Serene Mountain and attack Divine Capital.”

Another short and fat old man laughed and said, “Don’t worry, with the three of us protecting you, there aren’t many in this world who can hurt you.”

Prince Xin smiled as well. “Thank you, Immortal Elders. After I’ve attacked into the Divine Capital, I’ll definitely offer you the position of Imperial Preceptor. From toward onward, our Great Jin Dynasty’s religion will be the Three Mountains Four Peaks.”

Hearing that, the three of them exchanged a glance that had a hint of satisfaction in them.

Prince Xin continued to ask, “How will that Marie be dealt with?” During this period of time, he had been continuously gathering information about this female leader who was able to push him to a state of being unable to retaliate.

Not only was her martial arts cultivation deep and unfathomable but she was also an unrivaled beauty. She was a lot more outstanding compared to the female disciples from the illusory emotions path.

Therefore, Prince Xin wanted to meet her for himself.

However, the thin old man immediately said solemnly, “Miss Marie is someone our Martial Junior Xiao views in high regard. She has probably headed back to the mountain with Martial Junior to talk over Dao and devote her focus on cultivation. It’s best for Prince Xin to not inquire about her.”

The short and fat old man said outright, “Prince Xin, although Martial Junior Xiao has outstanding talent, he is still young at heart and can’t stand others harboring any thoughts over what belongs to him. Don’t be courting trouble for yourself.”

Hearing that, Prince Xin almost exploded from fury. He was of royal descent and a great hero. When had anyone ever lectured him right to the face like that?

However, at the thought of Xiao Shen’s capabilities, the Three Mountains Four Peaks’ foundation, and how strong these three were, Prince Xin forcibly suppressed the fury in his heart. He wore an awkward smile as he said, “I’ve been reckless.”

Seeing his respectful and submission appearance, the three old men nodded inwardly and revealed satisfied smiles. To the Three Mountains Four Peaks, it was not important who the Emperor was. The important thing was whether the new Emperor was docile and also what his attitude toward the Three Mountains Four Peaks was.

However, just then, a beam of light that was like both crackling thunder as well as a lightning strike flashed past before them.

A golden figure descended from the sky within 0.001 seconds, and long air currents dragged across the world, sending seething sound waves radiating outward. It was like a myriad of lightning strikes had exploded concurrently, yet it was also as if a bolt of lightning had plunged down into the mortal world from beyond the heavens.

The short and fat old man who was still smiling had not been able to react in time before the figure descended to the spot directly above him at rapid speed. Simultaneously, a fair and tender palm had pressed down on his head.

Everything happened very quickly. When the palm that descended from beyond the heavens came into contact with the short and fat old man, a force comparable to an asteroid’s collision pierced through his entire body without any reservations.

If the scene were slowed down 10,000 times, one would be able to see that the old man’s head was like a drink can being crushed by someone’s foot. It became distorted, sunken in, and shattered, turning into a pile of meat paste as it was pressed into the old man’s chest by that violent power.

Then his chest shattered. Under the explosive pressure, the short and fat old man seemed to have instantly turned into flattened flesh and blood, pressed into the ground by an invisible force.

The surface of the earth started to shatter, and the earth seemed to be tugged at and pierced through by waves of invisible force. A big black hole kept on expanding from the short and fat old man’s corpse.

Countless amounts of rock and sand were thrown into the sky, and the atmosphere was compressed into colorful plasma shock waves that scattered out in all directions.

All of these happened in 0.001 seconds. By the time the other two old men and Prince Xin reacted, their views were already filled with endless light and heat.

Two Qi fields erupted out from the two old men concurrently. Their Tiangang Realm’s Gang Qis instantly connected into a stretch, protecting the three of them and fending off the incoming plasma shock waves as well as the rock pieces and sand that were shooting toward them.

The shock waves and tremors only slowly dissipated after an entire minute had passed. Looking at the rising smoke and dust, the thin old man swung his right hand and an invisible current extended out, blowing away all of the smoke and dust.

The area that was within a range of several thousand meters and in their sight had turned into barren land and a huge crater appeared before their eyes.

Even though the Crown Princess had used Spatial Translocation to remove 99% of her powers at the very last minute, her attack still caused a terrifying amount of damage.

Currently, she had already changed into a set of lightweight black training clothes, exposing her arms and lower legs. Her beautiful feet were bare as she stepped onto the ground, rubbing her small and elegant-looking fist.

She spewed out white air. This exhilaration of sending her force right through the target finally allowed her to vent some of her frustration.

As for the young and fat old man whom she had struck, he had been thoroughly exterminated with nothing left behind.

The other three men looked at the Crown Princess like they were facing a great enemy. Feeling both anxious and bewildered, the thin old man said “Marie? Why are you here? Where is Martial Junior Xiao?”

He was not the only one who was shocked. Everyone was astonished by the Crown Princess’ world-shaking attack that they had just seen.

It was because they had all realized that if they had been the target of that earlier attack, none of them would have been able to survive.

The enemy… was far more powerful than they had imagined.
