Chapter 869 - 786: The Appearance of the List of Martial Lords
Wu Qi looked ahead and indeed saw Wu Xiaokun and the others. A flash of surprise shot through his eyes before his expression instantly darkened.
Behind him, a middle-aged man was also staring at Wu Xiaokun and his group with a shocked expression.
However, his focus wasn’t on Wu Xiaokun.
It was on the people beside Wu Xiaokun… that fat man, that dog, that familiar figure…
Ao Wushuang felt his blood pressure skyrocket in an instant.
Damn it, how did they run into them again?
He had run all the way from the Northern Border to the Southern Territory.
That damned little village appeared to be persistently haunting him.
Ao Wushuang subconsciously took a step back, feeling that something was not quite right.
“Daring to come to Zhenhaicheng, they’re truly seeking death!”
At this moment, Wu Qi spoke up, glaring at Wu Xiaokun and the others, saying,
“Seize them!”
“Wu Xiaokun is sneaky and slippery; do not listen to his sophistries.”
“Just directly suppress and kill them!”
Hearing this, the elder beside him nodded without a doubt, ready to carry out the orders.
After all, the previous clan elder Wu Zhenhai and the clan successor Wu Mingshan personally declared that Wu Xiaokun was indeed a traitor.
“Don’t mess around!”
However, Ao Wushuang immediately became anxious.
Had this guy gone mad? Instead of running away before being discovered by those people, he actually wanted to take the initiative to attack?
Was he deliberately seeking death?
“These people are not to be provoked!”
Ao Wushuang, gripping cold sweat, warned.
But Wu Qi immediately became furious.
“Ao Wushuang, I’ve tolerated you for a long time!”
“What do you think you are? Useless, always spouting nonsense and misleading the masses…”
“Not to be provoked? Even if the Celestial King himself came today, I, Wu Qi, would still provoke them!”
He was resolute and left no room for doubt.
Hearing this, Ao Wushuang fell silent.
“Well… I support you.”
Ao Wushuang felt a chill in his heart and, completely disinclined to intervene further, said,
“Go, kill them, don’t waver, do it now!”
Wu Qi snorted, and then led his men directly towards Wu Xiaokun and the others.
At this moment.
“Big Brother Long, this is the Main Ancestral Hall of our Tomb Guardians.”
Wu Xiaokun led Long Zixuan and the others into the city, introducing as he went:
“Our Tomb Guardians, according to ancestral teachings, guard two great tombs within the Martial Desolate.”
“Deadman Wilderness, Southern Sea!”
“I heard from my father that the Barrier of Zhenhaicheng has been unbreakable for all of eternity, only changeable when the oath-bound person appears.”
He narrated the situation of Zhenhaicheng as well.
“Halt!”
Suddenly, a loud shout came from up ahead.
Wu Xiaokun looked up to see Wu Qi, leading a group of skilled Tomb Guardians, blocking their path!
“Wu Qi… you traitor!”
Seeing Wu Qi, Wu Xiaokun was immediately filled with shock and anger.
“Third Grandpa, he is the traitor; he betrayed the Tomb Guardians, quickly seize him!”
Wu Xiaokun urgently spoke to the elder beside Wu Qi.
However, the Third Elder of the Tomb Guardians, Wu Zhenbo, his expression darkening, said,
“You are the traitor!”
“The old clan leader, your father, publicly declared to the whole clan that you and Wu Song conspired to break the oath, and you are the sinner of the entire clan!”
“Now, you dare to appear here, truly audacious!”
“Men, take them down!”
He gave a low command.
Several Cultivators immediately stepped forward.
Wu Xiaokun was extremely shocked and angry; he didn’t understand what was happening, but he was sure that Wu Qi was involved.
“Wu Qi… I’ll fight you with all I’ve got.”
Wu Xiaokun stepped forward, displaying his martial arts. With three punches and two kicks, he sent several Third Realm Cultivators flying.
Seeing this, Wu Qi was taken aback.
He hadn’t expected that in such a short period of time, Wu Xiaokun’s Cultivation Level had reached the Third Realm?
What kind of cultivation speed was this? Had he obtained some incredible opportunity?
This scene also caught the attention of many forces present.
“What’s going on?”
“Hmm, it looks like an internal matter of the Tomb Guardians. That young man, is he the traitor the Tomb Guardians are currently hunting?”
“What martial arts is he using? It looks very strong, almost like a legacy flowing out of the Martial Dao Golden Ranking!”
Many experts kept their eyes fixed on Wu Xiaokun.
They had noticed that the cultivation technique Wu Xiaokun was using was extraordinary, and even had traces of the Martial Dao Golden Ranking’s techniques.
In fact, Wu Xiaokun was using the Martial Lord inheritance from the Northern Martial Arts Gold List.
“Gymnastics of that sort,” he wouldn’t use them lightly.
“It seems you’ve sold out your clan for glory… and gained quite a lot!” Wu Qi glared at Wu Xiaokun, greed evident in his eyes, and declared, “Today, you are certain to die!”
“Attack!” Instantly, the high-level Tomb Guardians around them joined forces and encircled him, including several Fourth Realm elders! But, just at that moment, “The Dao Platform is acting up!” Suddenly, someone exclaimed! In an instant, the attention of everyone present focused on the Dao Platform. They saw the ancient bluestone Dao Platform was now manifesting layers upon layers of intricate Dao rhythms. In a flash, everyone grew excited. “Has a Martial Genius awoken this place?” “It’s very possible… Will the List of Martial Lords descend into this world?” “A grand opportunity is about to descend!” The crowd waited with bated breath.
Even Wu Qi was taken aback. Could it be that among the people on the Dao Platform, there was one who fulfilled the prophecy? But why was there no sign of this before? “Boom!” Just then, above Sky Domain, the sky changed color, as if a supreme being had torn through the heavens. Everyone in Zhenhaicheng hurriedly looked up. In the sky, there was a radiant golden light! It was a golden divine list!
Around the divine list, it seemed as if the orders of myriad Dao were descending, the true intent of martial arts, hovering above countless layers of white clouds, supreme and insurmountable, overseeing the entire Martial Desolate Realm. “The List of Martial Lords…” “It really is the List of Martial Lords!” “The List of Martial Lords has appeared… for the third time in history!” The whole city was excited. The Chen Clan, Supreme Sacred Land, and others were all looking forward to it with great anticipation. And at this moment, Wu Dade turned to Long Zixuan, saying, “Big Brother Long, is this fellow the very same stone entity from outside your thatched cottage back then?”
They already knew that the so-called List of Martial Lords had once been nothing more than an ordinary stone that had absorbed some of Martial Honor’s aura and thus transformed into a divine list. Long Zixuan looked at the List of Martial Lords in the sky, his eyes calm and unruffled, and said, “It now has a body of flesh and blood.” After speaking, he turned to Big Black Dog and said, “I want to secretly see whether it is now good or evil.” Big Black Dog nodded and said, “Leave it to me!” At once, Big Black Dog bit off a mouthful of fur and said, “One piece each, to conceal your auras, even if that broken stone itself comes, it will not be able to detect you.”
Jiang Li and the others immediately received a piece. “Dead Dog… How long has it been since you’ve bathed? Why does your fur smell so foul?” Wu Dade expressed his disgust. “Human Pet, are you itching for a beating?” Big Black Dog bared its teeth in threat! … The world was watching, waiting.
And from within the golden light of the divine list, suddenly a young man emerged. With hands behind his back, he had an extraordinary bearing, walking out from amongst the myriad golden rays, with starry eyes and sword-like eyebrows, his figure imposing and majestic. From a distance, he bore a three-point resemblance to Long Zixuan! Seeing this man, the entire city was even more shocked. “A living being has walked out of the Martial Dao Golden Ranking?” “That’s not right… Could this man be the List of Martial Lords itself?” “What on earth is going on…” Everyone was staring at the man, speculating wildly. Meanwhile, suddenly in the sky, there appeared five elders. These five elders possessed extremely strong auras, situated in five different directions, they all paid great homage to the young man and cried out in unison, “Congratulations to the divine spirit of the List of Martial Lords on its reincarnation, congratulations on the emergence of the Sub-Honored!” These five elders immediately caused the whole of Zhenhaicheng to react with shock. “These five… are the Pavilion Masters of the Martial Dao Pavilion from the five domains: east, west, south, north, and center!” “They… are actually paying homage to that young man?” “The divine spirit of the List of Martial Lords… Sub-Honored? That man is the embodiment of the List of Martial Lords!” In an instant, the entire city fell silent! …
