Fate-Defying Demon Emperor-Chapter 307 - 294: If he dares to come, send him to the Underworld
Life and death were of little consequence; if you refused to submit, you would fight.
Zhao Ming flaunted his high status and immense power, but Su Han couldn’t care less. I even dared to kill Zi Qiong and Xuan Song. What makes you think you’re so special? With a single punch, Su Han sent Zhao Ming crashing through a wall, leaving him buried in a heap of rubble.
He lay on the ground, completely dumbfounded, unable to process what had just happened for a long moment.
This country bumpkin actually dared to hit me? He dared to strike me right in front of Tongyan? He’s just a lowly martial artist from some backwater, and he had the gall to hit me?
Zhao Ming felt like he was going insane. A towering rage surged from the depths of his heart and erupted from the crown of his head. The air around him roared and churned like boiling water, a reflection of his uncontrollable fury.
"Aaaaah! You little beast! You actually dared to hit me! I’m going to kill you!" Zhao Ming roared. Half of his face was a bloody mess and his entire body was stained crimson, a miserable sight.
A towering rage and frenzied killing intent intertwined in his eyes, making it seem as if his gaze alone could kill. It was a terrifying sight.
BOOM!
A grayish-black Death Qi erupted from his body like a volcanic eruption, sweeping in all directions. Everywhere it went, the dense Death Qi annihilated all signs of life. The power was truly terrifying.
Not only that, but Zhao Ming also thrust out a hand and summoned a long spear shrouded in black Qi. This spear, resembling the Nether God Spear, pulsed with a dense aura of death, looking as if it could slay a person in a single strike.
Clearly, Zhao Ming was truly enraged. He lunged forward, intent on killing Su Han.
Unfazed, Su Han prepared to don the Ghostly Face Mask and engage Zhao Ming in battle.
However, at that very moment, a graceful figure stepped between them. Tongyan had made her move.
"Zhao Ming, what are you doing?"
A five-colored radiance burst from Tongyan’s body, making her look like a celestial fairy descending to the mortal realm, untainted by a speck of dust.
An immense pressure bore down on Zhao Ming, and his expression turned exceedingly ugly.
In terms of strength, he was naturally no match for Tongyan; otherwise, he wouldn’t be the Seventh Sequence while she was the Fifth. But Tongyan’s intervention made him seethe with rage. His gaze remained fixed on Su Han, his hatred spiraling into mania.
Tongyan was the goddess of his heart, the object of his endless pursuit. Yet, she had always been cold toward him. In contrast, she not only smiled at Su Han like a blooming flower but now even helped him against her own colleague.
A powerful surge of jealousy set his eyes ablaze. He clenched his fists so tightly that his veins bulged.
"You little beast, come out and fight me one-on-one! What kind of man hides behind a woman!"
Zhao Ming was using taunts to provoke him, but as Su Han stepped forward, he remained completely unafraid.
"Phenomenon: Cycle of Life and Death!"
Seeing Zhao Ming’s stubborn refusal to back down, Tongyan’s pretty face turned cold, and she made her move.
An ethereal wheel of Reincarnation manifested between heaven and earth. Representing life and death, it was suffused with the aura of the Dao.
Unlike the last time, this wheel was thirty meters in diameter. It was no longer blurry but quite distinct, though it remained ethereal and not solid. Nevertheless, the power it contained was terrifying.
With a push from Tongyan, the Cycle of Life and Death descended upon Zhao Ming like a massive millstone.
Zhao Ming hastily activated his King’s Body of the Underworld, but he was no match for it. He was sent flying, vomiting blood, defeated once again.
"Tongyan, you actually attacked me for an outsider! Good, very good! I’ll remember this!"
"And you, you little beast! You’re dead meat! I won’t let you get away with this!"
Clutching his wound, Zhao Ming glared at Su Han and Tongyan with bloodshot eyes full of rage before turning to leave without another moment’s delay. He was no match for Tongyan. Staying any longer would only invite further humiliation. However, this was far from over; he would surely seek revenge.
Zhao Ming departed, carrying with him a tidal wave of hatred. Su Han knew this was only the beginning.
But he felt neither worry nor fear. A beautiful woman is a magnet for trouble, and Tongyan’s looks are destined to attract endless conflict. But so what? If one comes, I’ll kill one. If a pair comes, I’ll kill them both!
As Tongyan withdrew her Phenomenon, she cautioned Su Han, her voice grave. "You must be careful. Zhao Ming is vindictive by nature; he’ll definitely find a way to retaliate."
"It’s fine. If he dares to come, I’ll send him to the Underworld!" A cold glint flashed in Su Han’s eyes, showing no concern for Zhao Ming’s threat.
Tongyan was very pleased with Su Han’s confidence. She had always valued this indomitable will of his. Whether in the Tianqing Dynasty, in Qingmo City, or here, his confidence and resilience were always so enchanting.
"Let’s go. The Dragon Palace Ruins are about to open. If we set out now, we should be able to make it in time."
Zhao Ming was just a minor interruption; the real destination was the East Sea Dragon Palace Ruins.
"Alright!" Su Han nodded, not refusing.
Stepping out of the grand hall, they saw the sky outside was exceptionally blue, and the wind carried the salty taste of the sea. Eastern Province was a great distance from Qingzhou, and its local customs were completely different. This was Su Han’s first time venturing so far from home, and he looked around with curiosity, broadening his horizons.
Tongyan had already prepared their transportation: a boat forged from white jade. It was so wondrous and elegant that it looked more like a fine work of art than a vessel.
"This is the White Jade Dao Boat, a Supreme Grade Dao Artifact capable of traveling at three times the speed of sound," Tongyan explained. "With it, we can reach the Abyss of the Deep Sea in just three days!" After becoming the Fifth Sequence, the treatment and resources she received had greatly improved.
Su Han intended to return the Thunder Light Treasure Ship, as they had agreed it was only a loan, but Tongyan shook her head in refusal.
"I have the White Jade Dao Boat, so the Thunder Light Treasure Ship is useless to me. Just keep it. Consider it a small gift from me!"
A mere Dao Artifact was something Tongyan could certainly afford to give away.
Soon, the two boarded the White Jade Dao Boat and left Lin Hai City behind.
The White Jade Dao Boat was remarkably fast. At three times the speed of sound, it was incredibly formidable. After all, at Su Han’s current peak speed, even using the Character Technique of Motion and Lightning Fast to their fullest, he still fell just short of reaching the speed of sound.
Under the clear blue sky and white clouds, the White Jade Dao Boat became a streak of white light, like a shooting star slicing through the firmament as it headed straight for the East Sea.
The White Jade Dao Boat was not only swift but also extremely stable, with eighteen Dao Formations engraved upon it. When fully activated, these formations generated a Spiritual Qi Protective Shield that enveloped the boat. This shield could not only fend off attacks but also block the howling wind, making the journey incredibly comfortable.
As Su Han enjoyed the comfort and stability of the White Jade Dao Boat, he gained a new appreciation for the "Myriad Treasures" aspect of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion.
This time, Su Han didn’t rush to cultivate. For a long while, he had been constantly under high pressure, either seeking revenge or being hunted. His nerves were taut and his spirit was strained. Now that he finally had a rare chance to unwind, especially with Tongyan by his side, he naturally wanted to make the most of it.
Beautiful company, a beautiful landscape, a beautiful scene—this was a rare moment of leisure for Su Han.
"We’ve reached the East Sea!" Tongyan suddenly said.
Looking ahead, a vast, azure ocean sprawled out before their eyes.
