The Beautiful CEO's Dragon Blood Bodyguard-Chapter 2138 - 2137: Like It or Not, You Have to Give It
The Brahma Seal is immensely powerful, and the special rune beneath it is not something an ordinary magical treasure can withstand.
However, this Xingtian Shield managed to withstand it, and Jiang Chuan, wielding the shield, even took two steps forward and swung an axe at Zhang Ziheng.
Zhang Ziheng was both trying to suppress Jiang Chuan with the Brahma Seal and avoiding the threat of the Xingtian Axe, raising his hand to hit the back of Jiang Chuan’s head with the God-Beating Whip.
Jiang Chuan, wielding the Xingtian Shield, could hardly defend himself against the blows.
Suddenly struck by the God-Beating Whip, his Divine Sea fluctuated fiercely, causing the Xingtian Shield to weaken slightly.
The Brahma Seal slammed down with a thud, knocking Jiang Chuan to the ground along with his shield.
Zhang Ziheng grew invigorated, laughing arrogantly, "Jiang Chuan, a mere child like you dares to be a match for our Yin Yang Sect?"
His spiritual power surged, doubling the size of the Brahma Seal to over ten meters across, and with a buzz, it smashed down again.
With a thunderous crash, the Brahma Seal collided with the Xingtian Shield.
The ground trembled, cracking open with turtle patterns spreading in all directions.
Jiang Chuan cursed angrily, "You lackey, if you have the guts, don’t use your magical treasures!"
Zhang Ziheng laughed heartily, "Shameless fool, aren’t you holding a magical treasure too?"
He raised his hand and smashed the Brahma Seal down once more.
The battle on the field was completely one-sided.
The Brahma Seal crashed down with thunderous roars, stirring up dust such that no one could see what was happening inside.
The disciples of Shenxu watched with pounding hearts, sneering at Zhang Ziheng, thinking to themselves, what sort of duel is this?
Is this about competing with magical treasures or cultivation skills?
Sect Leader Xing Ming couldn’t remain seated any longer, rising hurriedly and cupping his fists toward Long Fei, "Sect Leader Long, we admit defeat in this duel. Please call off your disciple, if he continues, my disciple will surely die here!"
Long Fei sipped the peach blossom tea from Shenxu, smiling faintly, "No rush, this Xingtian Shield is extraordinary, a few more hits won’t matter."
Xing Ming twitched at the mouth, exclaiming anxiously, "The Xingtian Shield is indeed exceptional, but not just anyone can wield it. Although Jiang Chuan is the Holy Son of Shenxu, his Divine Clan bloodline isn’t pure. In his hands, the Xingtian Shield can’t exert its full power."
Long Fei asked him, "I see this Xingtian Shield seems to be a remade item, does it differ from the shield of the ancient Xingtian Divine Monarch?"
Xing Ming furrowed his brow, unsure how Long Fei knew about their Divine Clan’s secrets.
He hesitated, unsure of how to respond.
Long Fei chuckled, "Saint Master, it doesn’t matter if you don’t say. I’m not particularly interested. It’s just that this Xingtian Shield and Xingtian Axe are unmatched treasures in the world and it seems rather a pity to keep them here. How about this, give me these two treasures, and I’ll have them stop the fight immediately."
"What?"
Xing Ming clenched his fist, almost ready to confront Long Fei.
This thief not only coveted their spirit fruits and wine but even eyed their ancestral treasures.
He resolutely refused, "Sect Leader Long, don’t push your luck. These items are the treasures left by our ancestors, how can we let you take them away?"
Long Fei laughed, comforting him, "Saint Master, don’t be upset! I have two reasons for wanting these treasures. First, Shenxu plans to seclude here, and these things won’t be of use to you.
The Demon Calamity is imminent, and the Human Race faces great peril. If these treasures emerge, they can add a thread of luck for the Human Race. When the Human Race triumphs, you can say Shenxu contributed.
Secondly, I will hand these treasures over to someone who can use them, and it’s even someone from your Divine Clan. By giving this to him, you’re not tarnishing the legacy of your ancestors." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦
Xing Ming was left speechless, unable to refute the first reason without being accused by Long Fei of cowardice.
If word spread, Shenxu would never be able to walk the Cultivation World again.
He clung to the second reason, asking Long Fei, "You’ve got someone of Divine Clan lineage with you?"
Long Fei laughed heartily, "Of course, it’s the Heaven-Dominating Bloodline from the Chu Family."
Xing Ming naturally knew of the Chu Family, his face immediately turning pale.
The Heaven-Dominating Overlord’s Bloodline, with the power to raise mountains and shatter stars, is a mighty bloodline of the Divine Clan.
Back then, the races were mixed, and so were the bloodlines.
Those among the Human Race who had Divine Clan blood claimed to be of the Divine Clan.
The Chu Family and Xiang Family both had such bloodline heritage.
But the two families split, with the Xiang Family hiding with them, and the Chu Family being driven away, only recently showing signs again.
While Xing Ming hesitated, Long Fei instructed Zhang Ziheng, "Ziheng, stop fixating on one person. If Jiang Chuan can’t beat you, go have a friendly spar with other disciples. Remember, friendship first, competition second, don’t be hasty in harming others!"
"Understood!"
Zhang Ziheng cried out, wielding the Brahma Seal and ready to find other disciples to practice on.
He pulled back, lifting the Brahma Seal with the intention of smashing it toward the other Shenxu disciples.
As the dust settled, Jiang Chuan lay under the Xingtian Shield with his flesh shattered and blood pouring from his mouth, looking tragic.
He shouted in fury at Zhang Ziheng, "You’re courting death!"
The group of disciples scattered in terror as the Brahma Seal hadn’t yet fallen, and Jiang Chuan rushed over, raising the Xingtian Shield to block.
With a loud bang, he protected his junior brothers and sisters, once again being knocked to the ground by the Brahma Seal, this time breaking several bones.
Saint Master Xing Ming swallowed hard, hurriedly intervening, "Sect Leader Long, please have your disciple stop, I agree to your terms."
Zhang Ziheng’s Brahma Seal was already suspended mid-air, and Jiang Chuan’s life hung by a thread.
Long Fei raised his hand, and the Brahma Seal was retracted into his grasp.
Zhang Ziheng looked disappointed, turning his gaze to Long Fei.
He had just wanted to kill Jiang Chuan to become the foremost of the Ten Heroes of Great Xia Country.
But who knew Long Fei would stop him.
Some elders quickly went over, rescuing Jiang Chuan and handing the Xingtian Shield and Axe back to Xing Ming.
Xing Ming felt both regret and helplessness.
The ancestral items were thus taken by a robber.
He steeled his heart, handing the items to Long Fei, thinking it wouldn’t be too late to reclaim them after the ancestor breaks through the Void Insight Realm.
The group of old men went to the Flame Emperor Palace, not for anything else, but to seek advancement.
The battle at Chang’an City had shamed them.
They could disregard any sect interests, now focusing solely on breaking through and reclaiming their dignity from Long Fei.
This was the reason for their disappearance, something Long Fei had long seen through, hence his bold demand for tribute at the Flame Emperor Palace.
"Thank you for your generosity, Saint Master, for contributing to the fight against the Demon Race. I’ll record it in the merit book."
Having taken the two items, he instructed Zhang Ziheng, "Ziheng, you’ve made a great contribution this time. Take this pill for advancing to the Unity Realm Stage; if you perform meritoriously again, more rewards will follow."
Long Fei produced a bottle, handing it to Zhang Ziheng.
Zhang Ziheng was dumbfounded, his body trembling, "This, is this the Integration Pill from the Flame Emperor Palace?"
Long Fei nodded with a faint smile, "Indeed, it is. I got it from your Sect Leader. It naturally belongs to you now."
Zhang Ziheng’s eyes reddened, dropping to his knees and sincerely kowtowing on the stone floor, "Sect Leader, I will say nothing more. From now on, I will follow you loyally without second thoughts."
He was genuinely moved; he had long coveted this pill.
Due to the Sect Leader, he had been unable to obtain it.
This life, he thought he would remain in the Divinity Transformation Realm.
Who knew, in the end, it was Long Fei who gave him the chance to breakthrough.
