Chapter 1920: Can You Stop These Three Moves?
Jade Rinse Peak.
Lin Xun’s eyes subtly changed at the sight of the purple-robed young man. So it is him!
On Fengshan Platform, Zhuanyu Heng was the first to become a Sage through the wishpower of all living beings.
Moreover, the Fengshan Dao Stele he imprinted reached a height of seven thousand feet, shocking everyone.
Of course, it became far less amazing when compared to Lin Xun’s results.
Lin Xun didn’t expect to meet Zhuanyu Heng again after so many years. Moreover, from the presence he displayed, he had reached the perfect supreme Saint-King Stage!
"To think he’s grown so much in less than ten years. As expected of a Heaven and Earth Dao Court disciple..."
Lin Xun couldn't help but recall Gu Cangxin, Yan Chunjun, and the other Heaven and Earth Dao Court disciples who had been killed in Kunlun Dominion.
Only Zhuanyu Heng hadn’t shown any hostility toward Lin Xun on Fengshan Platform. Firstly, it was because he was afraid of Lin Xun’s combat prowess. Secondly, he didn’t want to stir up any trouble that might affect his chances to become a Sage.
Therefore, Lin Xun didn’t feel much hostility towards Zhuanyu Heng either.However, Lin Xun knew that this meeting probably wasn’t going to be pleasant.
Sure enough, Zhuanyu Heng immediately locked onto Lin Xun the moment he arrived.
The corners of his lips curved into a playful smile. He coldly said, "Sect Master Heng Xiao, this is rather impolite of you."
Heng Xiao took a deep breath and said, "Young Master Zhuanyu, what are you saying?"
"Oh, stop pretending."
Zhuanyu Heng became disdainful and rude. He ignored Heng Xiao's ugly expression, pointed at Lin Xun, and asked Zique, "Is he the one you saw at the underground black market?"
Zique carefully inspected Lin Xun for a moment and answered in a doubtful manner, "Young Master, I don’t think it's him. His aura is completely different from the one I met."
Zhuanyu Heng was taken aback. Terrifying golden light emerged in his eyes as he fearlessly looked Lin Xun up and down. He then frowned and said, "He's not in disguise. Are you sure you aren’t mistaken?"
Zique nodded. "I would never dare to lie about such an important matter."
Upon hearing this, Heng Xiao said, "It seems that this is a misunderstanding. This young man is Jin Duyi and he recently won first place in the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest. There’s no one in Cloud State who doesn’t know his name."
"First place in the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest?"
Zhuanyu Heng was startled. Soon after, he chuckled and said, "Sect Master Heng Xiao, are you trying to warn me that Jin Duyi isn’t someone you should mess with?"
The group of ladies behind him covered their mouths and giggled.
How could their Young Master be wary of a mere champion of the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest?
Heng Xiao said, "Young Master, you’ve misunderstood me. I only wanted to suggest the possibility that you might have the wrong person."
"Impossible!"
Zhuanyu Heng was absolutely sure. His eyes were tinged with amusement and iciness as he stared at Lin Xun as if he was watching prey.
"Sect Master Heng Xiao, I wish to have a chat with Dao Friend Jin Duyi. If you don't want to bring disaster to Xuanji Dao Sect, please step aside and don't get involved."
Although his tone was indifferent, the manner in which he made the words sound trivial revealed an arrogant attitude.
One must be reminded that this was the Xuanji Dao Sect’s territory and Heng Xiao was the Sect Master of Xuanji Dao Sect! Yet, Zhuanyu Heng was openly threatening Heng Xiao to back off!
This was no longer just arrogance but a show of complete disregard toward Heng Xiao and Xuanji Dao Sect.
Heng Xiao was inwardly furious as his expression fluctuated indeterminately.
Lin Xun, who had been watching like a bystander, suddenly smiled and said, "Sect Master Heng Xiao, I would also like to take this opportunity to have a chat with Young Master Zhuanyu. You need not be concerned regardless of what happens."
Heng Xiao was taken aback.
Zhuanyu Heng gave a thumbs up as he fearlessly grinned and said, "You’re very sensible and I admire that. I won’t make things difficult as long as you continue to show such sensibility."
Heng Xiao looked at Lin Xun. Upon seeing the latter’s determined attitude, Heng Xiao inwardly sighed and said, "Fine, I promise that no one from Xuanji Dao Sect, including myself, will interfere in this matter."
With that, he turned around and walked off.
Zhuanyu Heng waved his hand, "Zique, you guys should also step aside. I will handle this myself."
Zique and others nodded and left.
Soon, only Lin Xun and Zhuanyu Heng were left on Jade Rinse Peak.
"Jin Duyi, you should know why I’m after you."
Zhuanyu Heng’s eyes gleamed intimidatingly as he stared at Lin Xun. "Let me put it like this, I only want two of Seng Yuandu's family heirlooms, the bronze seal and the apricot-yellow flag. As long as you hand them over, I guarantee that I will sufficiently compensate you. Otherwise..."
He was direct, forceful, and didn’t bother to hide his intentions.
Lin Xun calmly asked, "Otherwise what?"
"Otherwise, I’ll have no choice but to take action and we’ll let our fists do the talking. However, if things reach that juncture, there will no longer be any compensation."
Zhuanyu Heng smiled slightly, revealing his neat, white teeth. "Of course, as the champion of the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest, you’ll naturally have the opportunity to participate in the Dao Debate Assembly in the future. You’ll definitely feel dissatisfied if the treasures are taken by force."
Lin Xun chuckled and said, "So what are you going to do?"
Zhuanyu Heng didn’t expect that Lin Xun could still laugh at this juncture.
This proved that the other party was either confident or unafraid of his identity and threats!
After a slight pause, he said, "Simple, receive three of my moves. If you succeed, I will leave immediately and not bother you any further. If you fail, hand over the two treasures. What do you say?"
Lin Xun shook his head. "How about both of us each receive three moves from the other. If I fail to block them, I will hand over the treasure to you. If you fail to block, you’ll hand over the treasure in your possession. What do you think?"
Zhuanyu Heng's pupils contracted as his expression turned frosty. "It does sound fair, but are you sure you want to do this?"
Lin Xun answered, "Scared?"
Zhuanyu Heng couldn't help but laugh out loud. "Interesting, how interesting. Then show me what gives a mere champion of the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest the confidence to speak to me in such a manner!"
His cold voice would make anyone inwardly shudder.
Lin Xun was far more direct. He rose into the air, looked down at Zhuanyu Heng, and said, "Stop wasting time and come up to fight."
His black hair and clothes fluttered as an unshakable mountain-like aura spread from him.
"Sure!"
Zhuanyu Heng also soared into the air like a streak of light. Golden light flowed in his eyes as he stared at Lin Xun. "You go first, or should I go first?"
Lin Xun calmly said, "If I go first, you probably won’t have a chance to execute your three moves."
The corners of Zhuanyu Heng's lips twitched imperceptibly. This guy...was even more arrogant than himself!
At a far away corner, Heng Xiao’s expression changed slightly. He could tell that they were unable to reach an agreement and were going to fight.
Zhuanyu Heng was a descendant of the Primeval Imperial Zhuanyu Clan and a core disciple of Heaven and Earth Dao Court. No matter who won, no ordinary person would not be able to bear the consequences of offending him.
This made Heng Xiao worried.
On the other hand, Zique and other ladies couldn't help but smile in amusement.
Jin Duyi wanted to fight their Young Master?
That was like a mantis trying to stop a cart!
They knew too well how terrifying Zhuanyu Heng was.
"Don't worry, I will ensure that you will have no chance to attack."
As he spoke, Zhuanyu Heng suddenly took a step forward.
A ray of light shot into the sky and scattered the clouds.
His aura instantly changed, becoming domineering and brazen like the ruler of the world as he was engulfed by blinding purple divine light.
He resembled a mighty purple sun in the sky!
"The first move!"
His howl shook the heavens like a dragon’s roar as thrust his palm.
Rumble!
Purple dao light surged in the void and condensed into a palm that was as large as a mountain. Its five fingers were akin to peaks and its palm lines were branded with magnificent and mysterious law power.
The nearby space rapidly collapsed, transforming into a vortex of chaos. It felt as if the hand could cover the entire sky and bring unimaginable destruction.
Heaven and Earth Great Hand Seal!
Infused with Zhuanyu Heng’s Dao Field Power, the magnificence of Heaven and Earth Dao Court’s supreme inheritance art was on full display.
"Strong!"
Heng Xiao's heart trembled. He had seen many talents in the Cloud State Dao Debate Contest and formidable individuals such as Lu Dubu, Wu Huang, Xie Yuhua, and Su Muhan.
However, Zhuanyu Heng wasn’t the least bit inferior to them and was possibly even stronger!
"Subdue!"
The sky-covering purple hand descended from above.
From afar, it looked as if a god’s hand was reaching out from the heavens!
"Young Master's mastery over his own power has grown increasingly impressive. It's as if he has reached the pinnacle of perfection."
Zique and other ladies revealed expressions of fanatical admiration.
Lin Xun didn’t move from the spot. He merely extended his right hand and pinched his fingers.
A palm also condensed and rose into the sky, exuding a vast and simple aura.
When the two palms collided, the clouds exploded and transformed into chaotic tempests. Meanwhile, a turbulent mix of dao light and thunderous rumbling spread, shaking the surrounding land.
When the smoke finally cleared, Lin Xun was revealed to be unharmed, still standing at the same spot surrounded by brilliant dao light.
"This..."
"He blocked it?"
"No wonder he has the guts to fight the Young Master. It turns out that he does have some ability. However, he will be gravely mistaken if he thinks that’s all the Young Master is capable of."
Zique and other ladies revealed surprised expressions. However, they weren’t agitated but composed. They seemed to have absolute confidence in Zhuanyu Heng.
"If that’s all you have, your loss will be quite devastating."
Lin Xun’s voice sounded casual and nonchalant.
"Is that so?"
Zhuanyu Heng's eyes gleamed coldly. With a deep breath, his aura changed once more as he shone as brightly as the sun.
The previous move was merely testing the waters. Now, he knew exactly how much strength he should use to suppress this arrogant opponent!
