Chapter 117 Xia Liangchou, Cause and Effect!
Chapter 117 Xia Liangchou, Cause and Effect!
Xia Yuhui stared at Cai Yuandan, who was looking quite relaxed, his eyes narrowed slightly. He already knew in his heart that the Cai family had come to cause trouble.
He hadn't expected the Cai family to dare cause trouble on such an important day. He had only exchanged a few polite words, yet the Cai family had actually sent several elite cultivators to the stage—clearly, they were there specifically to sabotage him…
After Cai Fangtao kicked a member of the Xia family off the stage, he spat on the Xia family cultivator and then glanced contemptuously at the Xia family cultivators watching the battle.
The young cultivators below the stage were enraged and filled with resentment at this insult, especially at such an important event for the Xia family.
However, the group did not break the rules, but waited silently for their chance to make a move.
Among the crowd, there was a young man with a resentful look on his face, staring intently at Cai Fanglang on the stage. At this moment, he was like a trapped wolf with bloodshot eyes, ready to pounce at any moment.
"Next match, Xia Lianghe will face Xia Yuyao..."
Several matches ended quickly, and now it was time for the final battle for the championship. Even the Foundation Establishment cultivators above were watching with great interest.
"The 700-year-old immortal clan truly lives up to its reputation."
"You flatter me, Fairy Su. Compared to the Su family, whose heritage spans thousands of years, I am truly ashamed of my own shortcomings!"
Meanwhile, in the distance, Akagi Yoshiaki stroked his beard as he watched the two chatting and laughing, seemingly deep in thought.
"Next match: Xia Liangchou vs. Cai Fangtao!"
Upon hearing this, Xia Liangchou, whose face was gloomy and who had been suppressing his killing intent, suddenly lit up his eyes and leaped onto the arena.
Cai Fanglang also leaped onto the arena. Both of them were at the sixth level of Qi Refining, and their magical artifacts were almost identical. It could be said that their strengths were evenly matched. Now, it all depended on the spells they had learned and their combat experience.
Judging from Cai Fangtao's performance just now, he is clearly not a pampered person.
However, Xia Liangchou was also quite remarkable. He was the ninth son of the Liang generation and the only son of Xia Guangze. Moreover, he had performed exceptionally well while accompanying Xia Yufeng on a cargo transport mission, so Xia Yuhui had praised and rewarded him.
In a short while, the two engaged in a fierce battle. From the very beginning, Xia Liangchou firmly suppressed Cai Fangtao, not even giving him a chance to fight back. Although the two were in the mid-stage of Qi Refining, the aftershocks of their battle were no less than those in the late stage of Qi Refining, making the surrounding rogue cultivators watch intently.
After some time, Cai Fangtao finally could not withstand Xia Liangchou's magical attack and was sent flying far away, spitting blood and collapsing to the ground.
After Xia Liangchou knocked the man's magic weapon away and confirmed that he could no longer effectively retaliate, he stomped on Cai Fangtao's face, his expression revealing a ferocious look.
At this moment, he recalled the scene when the Cai family and the Chimu family joined forces to attack Lingfeng Mountain. Due to the suddenness of the attack, many cultivators of the Xia family were slaughtered.
When his father, Xia Guangze, noticed the two families' sneak attack, he immediately asked his mother to protect him and then went to provide support. Just then, two cultivators from the Cai family arrived and went straight to kill the mother and son.
His mother was originally a rogue cultivator with low cultivation level. Knowing that she was no match for the enemy, she desperately held off the enemy so that he could escape alone.
At that time, he was still young and ignorant. He could only cry as he ran towards the top of Lingfeng Mountain. Only after his family wiped out the two cultivators did he realize that he had become a helpless orphan. The road leading to the top of Lingfeng Mountain became a shadow that haunted him for the rest of his life.
After learning that he possessed four spiritual roots that could be cultivated, he vowed to work hard and avenge his parents...
"You brat, how dare you be so rude!"
Upon witnessing this scene, Cai Yuandan on the stage could no longer contain himself and suddenly stood up to stop it. With so many rogue cultivators in front of them, if this matter were to spread, the Cai family would surely become a laughingstock in Jinling County.
Upon hearing this angry shout, the surrounding rogue cultivators immediately fell silent, each becoming completely obedient.
“Alas, Fellow Daoist Cai, it’s just a minor dispute between two juniors. There’s no need to get so angry. Come, sit down. Let’s continue drinking. I’ll toast you.”
Xia Yuhui said in a deep voice, he didn't care about the Cai family's anger. After all, the two families were sworn enemies, so what was the harm in offending them one more time?
Upon hearing Xia Yuhui's words and glancing around, Cai Yuandan noticed the strange looks in everyone's eyes, and could only snort coldly before sitting back down.
Unfortunately, the situation was pressing, and this was the heart of the Xia family's territory, so no matter how angry he was, he dared not vent his anger here.
Seeing this, Xia Liangchou below stomped on Cai Fangtao again, even knocking out several of Cai Fangtao's teeth.
He then transmitted his voice, saying, "How do you feel? Are you comfortable? Do you know how long I've waited for this day?"
Cai Fangtao was so angry that his face turned ashen, and he was filled with resentment.
"That day, I refused the Grand Elder's bestowed name and insisted on changing it to Xia Liangchou, to remind myself not to forget the hatred. Today, I have finally achieved a small goal. Are you angry? I ask you! Are you resentful!?"
"Hahaha, I will not kill you today. I will make you remember me, Xia Liangchou, for all eternity. When you cultivate, you will recall the scene of me trampling you under my feet in front of everyone today."
Cai Fangtao was deeply humiliated. He clenched his fists tightly, his eyes were bloodshot, and the anger in his body seemed to be about to burst through his blood vessels.
But I have the will but not the ability...
"Very well, I respect you for changing your name to Xia Liangchou in order to seek revenge. From now on, I will be called Cai Fanghen. I will remember you for the rest of my life. If I succeed in my cultivation in the future, I will definitely come to seek revenge on you with a heart full of resentment!"
Seeing that he had not been defeated by him, but instead became even more determined, Xia Liangchou was filled with murderous intent and raised his foot to deliver a fatal blow.
"You brat, prepare to die!"
Cai Yuandan could no longer suppress his emotions. His body surged with demonic energy, radiating boundless power, and he wanted to rush off the stage and kill Xia Liangchou.
Xia Liangchou on the stage was directly blasted away by this powerful shockwave.
At this moment, Xia Yuhui, who was not far away, also exuded a terrifying killing intent, which was mixed with crackling sounds.
Everyone turned to look and saw that Xia Yuhui was surrounded by lightning, with two huge red lightning bolts wrapped around his arms. He was imposing and awe-inspiring.
Xia Yuhui stared intently at Cai Yuandan, slowly uttering, "You...want...to...die...?"
Cai Yuandan suddenly felt a chill run from the top of his head to the soles of his feet, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, or as if a bucket of ice water had been poured over his head in the dead of winter. He stood frozen on the spot, and his mind, which had been affected by the demonic power, gradually returned to normal.
He then realized the enormity of his mistake. He knew that if he made any further moves, Xia Yuhui would kill him on the spot without mercy, and Xia Yuhui certainly had the power to do so.
Feeling the aura of divine punishment emanating from Xia Yuhui, he couldn't help but feel a sense of fear.
This was a feeling he had never experienced since breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
Everyone was shocked by this scene, and they secretly exclaimed, "These two cultivators are so fierce, neither of them is a normal person."
"Fellow Daoists, please don't misunderstand, please don't misunderstand. Let's sit down first, let's sit down first." Seeing Cai Yuandan showing weakness, Qiu Lin quickly acted as a peacemaker.
