Chapter 787: Half!

“Condense!” Ling Lan suddenly appeared in mid-air. She clenched her fist and all the ice element in the area around her started to condensed rapidly, forming many perfectly shaped water droplets. In response to this, the ice needles turned into water droplets too. It was essentially a battle between two domain realm master with two different perspective and understanding of the ice elements.

Suddenly, red mist appeared out of mid-air, symbolizing the final fate of a titled domain realm formidable warrior.

Ling Lan looked at the red mist with cold eyes. She raised another hand and clenched it into a fist again.

“Ah!” A faint scream could be heard and all the water droplets exploded. The force from the explosion of the water droplets injured Ling Lan too. Fresh blood dripped down from the corner of her mouth.

“Just half a step more, then I can advance to the imperial level. But…” Ling Lan’s understanding of her ice elemental domain was at the imperial level. What was stopping her from becoming an imperial level domain expert was her understanding of her own imperial level technique. She had only understood 50% of her imperial level technique, Condense. This was the name she had given to the technique.

An imperial level technique was given the term ‘imperial level’ because of the significance it had in one’s domain stage battles. Every imperial level technique was the perfect blend of offense and defense, it was perfect in every situation depending on how much the user understood the technique. Unfortunately, Ling Lan only understood how to use Condense for defense as she was unable to comprehend its offensive power yet. Hence, she was stopped by this.

The ice needle technique the middle-aged man used almost reached the standard of an imperial level technique. If he just had a deeper understanding of his technique, Ling Lan would not be able to defeat his ice needles technique so easily. However, even if the ice needle technique reached the standard of an imperial level technique, it would still be incomplete as it only had its offensive power with no means to use it for defense. This was its lethal weakness.

Ling Lan didn’t use Condense right from the start because she wanted to find an opportunity during the battle that could help understand her imperial level technique better. This kind of opportunity was difficult to find. Ling Lan didn’t get enlightened even after she fought so many hard battles.

“Maybe the time is not right yet.” Ling Lan was not frustrated. Since no results could be found now, she just pushed this thought to the back of her head. Her master had told her once before that she had progressed too quickly, resulting in a flaw in her foundation. Maybe this was why she was still unable to fully understand the imperial level technique.

‘Looks like I have to experience more battles.’ Ling Lan thought to herself. After some time, once 250 Ace Mecha Clan was fully prepared, she would try to request to the division headquarters to send her mecha clan onto the battlefield. There would have enough battles for her to gain more experience on the battlefield.

Suddenly, Ling Lan frowned as she detected numerous domain realm masters running in her direction. Her battle with the middle-aged man probably had alerted the domain realm masters from the military as even Tang Ningyu and Mu Chaoran were in the cohort. Ling Lan had completed her mission and made Pei Shaoyun disappeared successfully so she didn’t want to meet her roommates now.

Ling Lan snapped her fingers and her ice element energy around her dispersed a little. Then, a breeze of frosty wind blew by, completely shrouding Ling Lan from the world. When the wind finally went pass Ling Lan’s original position, she was not there anymore.

A few seconds after Ling Lan left, many people appeared at the manor.

“What a strong ice element energy. There seems to be other domain energy as well. It’s really messy. I can’t put a finger as to what they are” Some of the domain realm masters tried to sense their surroundings.

“I felt a tinge of fire element.” Mu Chaoran was sensitive to fire elements so he immediately sensed the faint fire element in the air. He frowned.

“There is lightning element too.” Tang Ningyu was serious. Without a doubt, while the battle at the Azure Central Scout Academy was ongoing, a huge battle was happening here too. Tang Ningyu had the feeling that the people who fought here were those fake domain realm masters who had escaped from their headquarters. However, their new-found freedom was brutally taken away. Is there another secret organization observing them silently, waiting to profit as the third party?

“It’s a pity that we can’t trace them.” Although they could only feel the huge mass of domain energy in the manor, no signs of domain energy could be found leading out of the manor. Looks like the other party was very careful and didn’t leave any traces behind.

“Do you think that bastard died along with these people?” Mu Chaoran narrowed his eyes. He really hoped that the bastard didn’t die that easily.

“The ice element here is dominating any other elements so we can conclude that bastard won his fight and got to flee before we got here. Plus, that bastard won’t die so easily.” Tang Ningyu didn’t believe that an ice element titled domain realm formidable warrior could be killed in such a short time as only an imperial level domain expert could do such a deed. Plus, if there actually was an imperial level domain expert, the domain energy left behind in this area would be much greater than what they had detected.

Tang Ningyu felt the energy left behind by an imperial level domain expert in the past, that was why he didn’t believe an imperial level domain expert was here. At that time, he had only just recently advanced to the domain stage, and unluckily while walking around, he stumbled across a tinge of energy left behind by an imperial level domain expert but it was enough to destabilize his domain. If his captain didn’t save him in time, he might have been crippled for his entire life. This experience engraved the overwhelming strength of an imperial level domain expert into his mind. By his estimations, even a titled domain realm formidable warrior would be killed instantly if he were to meet an imperial level domain expert in battle.

The ice element energy in the manor was definitely suffocating but it wasn’t as much of a stranglehold of an experience like the one he had in the past. The energy might just be left by an ice element titled domain realm formidable warrior.

‘That’s good too.’ Tang Ningyu thought in his heart. If they couldn’t kill this person personally, they wouldn’t be able to feel appeased for the rest of their lives, becoming the devil in their hearts.

“What should we do now?” Mu Chaoran asked.

Tang Ningyu sighed. “Let’s just go back and report our mission for now and the military will take care of the rest.”

Mu Chaoran nodded. The two of them disappeared.

On the way back, Mu Chaoran suddenly remembered something. “This time, you lost to the person who took the same mission before you, right? Did you manage to find out who he is?”

Tang Ningyu remained silent for a moment. “Yes, I lost to him this time and I intend to fully accept my defeat. But until now, I don’t know who he is. He might be among the transfer students or he might not. Honestly, I would have suspected Shaoyun if he didn’t die. However, he didn’t give me a chance to suspect him.”

“I would rather suspect him and hurting him than him being killed by that bastard.” Tang Ningyu clenched his fist. If Pei Shaoyun was still alive, their relationship might not be the same anymore after they had tricked him so much and took a lot of advantages of him. But, he still wished that Shaoyun would jump around in front of him, waving his finger at him and be angry at them for lying to him.

Tang Ningyu recalled the shy and timid young boy who always wore a smile on his face. He was heartwarming and considerate. However, he was now gone.

“Yes, even after he knew about everything and still broke ties with us, I will accept that, and I’ll be comforted to know that there is still a Little Brother Shaoyun in the world being angry at us.” Mu Chaoran was depressed. The image of Pei Shaoyun flashed past his mind. He could almost imagine how he would look if he was furious, the angry but helpless expression on his little brother’s face when Shaoyun knew he couldn’t do anything to him. In just a month’s time, Pei Shaoyun let him, a lonely person, understood what brotherhood meant.

They suddenly stopped walking. They turned their heads side to side and realized that they had returned to the place where Shaoyun had died.
