Chapter 23 - Ripping The Facade Apart

The Wan Clan forged their fame through taming beasts, and their beast-taming method mainly focused on grasping the demonic beast’s weakness and forcing them to submit. So even if the beasts were subdued, they would retaliate when they could. Thus, they often had beast tamers being eaten by demonic beasts.

But what happened right before their eyes was beyond their comprehension. They watched with disbelief as the Earthshock Blaze Tiger lay beside Liu Wuxie obediently.

Xu Lingxue had shock reflected in her eyes.

“Is this the beast-taming art?” Everyone knew about Wan Clan’s beast-taming skills, and subduing a demonic beast and making them docile could only be done with the beast-taming art. So what happened in the arena was a resounding slap to the Wan Clan’s faces because Liu Wuxie had challenged the beast-taming art that the Wan Clan was so proud of.

Wan Rongzhe was petrified on the spot with murderous intent flashing in his eyes as what happened today was a massive blow to the Wan Clan.

“This is unbelievable! Record this scene with the Memory Talisman quickly? so we can comprehend it when we return. There must be some magic behind all this, and we might be able to comprehend the beast-taming art!” Multiple Memory Talisman?s were taken out to record what was happening in the arena.

“This is a shocking reversal. He really gave us a huge surprise!” The situation in the colosseum got out of control, and many people were saying that Wan Clan’s beast-taming art was inferior compared to Liu Wuxie\'s. The real beast-taming art happened before their eyes by making the demonic beast submit on its own will, without forcing it to submit. Those were two different concepts.

Xue Yu’s expression soured as the time for his bet with Liu Wuxie was running out. The wager was whether Liu Wuxie could endure for fifteen minutes in the arena.

Wan Zhuoran turned to look at his father, Wan Rongzhe, waiting for his father’s instructions. This was because he could no longer gain control of what was happening in the arena. When he saw a slicing hand sign from his father, Wan Zhuoran turned to look at a beast tamer in the dark waiting for his orders.

Liu Wuxie stood with his cold gaze sweeping across Xue Yu because there would soon be a conclusion to their bet.

Suddenly, an arrow whistled through the air, fired from a hidden location. The unexpected sneak attack caught everyone off guard. The arrow was small, about the size of a finger, and couldn’t possibly be lethal, leaving everyone puzzled.

To everyone’s surprise, the arrow wasn’t directed at Liu Wuxie but at the Earthshock Blaze Tiger. When the arrow dug into the Earthshock Blaze Tiger’s body, the pain made it release a ferocious roar, with its eyes becoming crimson. The Earthshock Blaze Tiger was enraged and slammed itself against the cage.

At the same time, a bizarre fragrance emitted from the wound of the Earthshock Blaze Tiger, swiftly spreading out in the air. As Liu Wuxie was close to the Earthshock Blaze Tiger, he naturally caught the smell of it.

“The Psychedelic Powder!” Liu Wuxie narrowed his eyes. He had lost his rationale in the brothel because of the Psychedelic Powder.

As the Earthshock Blaze Tiger gradually lost its rationale, it could only behave instinctually as it let out a growl with its fur standing up. A surge of demonic energy emanated from the Earthshock Blaze Tiger, swirling around it like a cyclone.

But that wasn’t all because the Earthshock Blaze Tiger’s cultivation rapidly rose, making everyone anxiously hold their breaths. It seemed to have been stimulated into excavating all its potential in this short period.

“Wan Clan...I see...” Liu Wuxie muttered to himself. He was practically certain that the Wan Clan wanted him dead in the brothel.

But the audience didn’t know what happened because the small arrow disappeared into the Earthshock Blaze Tiger’s body with a flash. So only Liu Wuxie had seen it.

“The Earthshock Blaze Tiger seems to have gone berserk.”

The Earthshock Blaze Tiger still had a trace of rationale since it attacked the cage instead of Liu Wuxie. But the little hint of rationale left was soon devoured by the Psychedelic Powder.

The Earthshock Blaze Tiger came to a stop as it breathed out demonic energy, its eyes becoming murky. It had utterly lost its rationale and could only behave by its beastly instincts. Deep in the consciousness of any demonic beasts, humans were their greatest enemy, and the Psychedelic Powder magnified the Earthshock Blaze Tiger’s hatred for humans.

The Earthshock Blaze Tiger began to pound its paws on the ground, and it couldn’t feel any pain despite its paws becoming bloody. It charged toward Liu Wuxie, and the aura it gave off was tenfold stronger than before. This was because the Earthshock Blaze Tiger had become a first-grade seventh-level demonic beast.

Wan Zhuoran sat down with a hint of a smile in his eyes because Liu Wuxie would finally be dead after winning 100 spirit stones from him.

The Earthshock Blaze Tiger closed in on Liu Wuxie and was only ten-odd meters away. Liu Wuxie stood still, leaving onlookers to wonder if he could once again tame the beast. In no time, the tiger was within striking distance, and it was too late for Liu Wuxie to evade.

Just as the Earthshock Blaze Tiger was about to sink its teeth into Liu Wuxie, he grasped the hilt of his blade, and a bright light flashed. The tiger froze mid-pounce as if turned to stone.

The sound of dripping echoed through the arena as blood fell from Liu Wuxie’s blade, forming a plum blossom pattern on the ground. The head of the Earthshock Blaze Tiger tumbled to the ground and rolled to a stop at Liu Wuxie’s feet.

The colosseum fell into a deathly silence as though everyone had forgotten about breathing. To kill a first-grade, seventh-level demonic beast with one swing, just what kind of strength did Liu Wuxie have?

Xu Lignxue covered her mouth, and her eyes filled with shock and a hint of joy.

Wan Zhuoran and Xue Yu, on the other hand, leaped to their feet, taken aback by the unexpected turn of events.

“Wan Clan, I’ll make all of you end up like the Earthshock Blaze Tiger a month from now. All of you will die!” Liu Wuxie raised his blade and swung it down in the air, breaking apart the cage. His blade and the cage were both forged with refined iron, but his blade was of a higher quality. The blade had almost reached the level that it could slice apart iron, like cutting through beancurd.

Before the Wan Clan could open the cage for him, Liu Wuxie walked out of the arena with his head held high. But with each step he took, the murderous intent directed at him intensified. After all, he had brazenly declared his intention to annihilate the entire Wan Clan in just a month’s time.

“Do you think you can leave this place alive today?!” Wan Rongzhe signaled as many of Wan Clan’s disciples charged forth to kill Liu Wuxie. The blade that Liu Wuxie swung earlier made Wan Rongzhe, who was in the Spirit Cleansing Realm, feel afraid.

Liu Wuxie’s blade was fast, accurate, and ruthless. He could see the embryo of the blade aura in Liu Wuxie’s attack earlier. This meant it would be a matter of time before Liu Wuxie comprehended blade aura.

Countless people fled the colosseum when they saw Wan Clan making a move. Twelve Wan Clan’s members surrounded Liu Wuxie with their weapons, charging forth and unleashing their attacks without concern for their own lives.

“Die!” Liu Wuxie stepped out of the arena, his murderous intent boiling. Before the twelve members of the Wan Clan could see anything, a flash of light pierced their bodies, and their heads flew to the sky. Even someone in the eighth level of the Houtian Realm was slain. So who was the garbage here?

All Liu Wuxie did was stride the Seven Dipper Steps like a reaper weaving through the encirclement. With each person he passed, a body fell to the ground. In no time, all twelve disciples of the Wan Clan lay slain. Liu Wuxie had taken twelve steps, one life with each, dispatching them all with a single blow.

The sight left everyone gasping for breath as hisses of shock and disbelief filled the air. The ‘garbage’ in their eyes was like a fiendgod, and no one could stop his footsteps.

“He hid real deep! He’s not garbage, but he pretends to be one. So it turns out that we were wrong all this time!”

Liu Wuxie had endured years of mockery and ridicule, yet he never spoke out against it and continued to live as he pleased. Only he knew the depth of the pain he had suffered, and today’s events were a resounding rebuke to all those who had doubted him.

Liu Wuxie strode over the bodies of the fallen Wan Clan members, making his way back to the spectator area and towards Xue Yu and Wan Zhuoran. He swept the 100 spirit stones from the table into a red cloth, tied it into a bundle, and slung it over his shoulder.

Wan Zhuoran and Xue Yu were still in a state of shock, staring in disbelief as Liu Wuxie pocketed the spirit stones.

Wan Zhuoran finally regained his senses and roared, “How dare you kill members of my Wan Clan, you scum! I’ll have your head!” He lashed out with a palm strike at Liu Wuxie.

Xu Lingxue stepped in front of Liu Wuxie, releasing her Xiantian Spirit and challenging Wan Zhuoran, “Why don’t you try it!” Liu Wuxie felt a warmth in his heart, touched by her concern for him.

Hundreds of Wan Clan members stepped forward, awaiting their patriarch’s command. The Tian Clan members were not far behind, ready to seize the opportunity to join the fray. Together, the two clans could eliminate the Xu Clan and claim their assets for themselves.

The face-off fell into a stalemate as though heads would roll on the ground in the next moment. Blood dripped down Liu Wuxie’s blade as he licked his lips and revealed a devilish smile.

“Both of you will die today!” At Wan Rongzhe’s command, the members of the Wan Clan advanced. They were all formidable opponents and a fierce battle was about to erupt. Against such overwhelming odds, and with Wan Rongzhe, a Spirit Cleansing Realm cultivator, leading the charge, Liu Wuxie and Xu Lingxue stood little chance of emerging unscathed.

The situation was dangerous. Liu Wuxie was prepared to ignite all his potential and make a breakthrough in the Xiantian Realm. Then again, this was a dangerous act because he hadn’t repaired his heart meridian, and there was a possibility that his heart meridian would be further injured in the process, resulting in his death.

Right then, Master Huo, who had been silent all this time, suddenly stepped forward and released his aura. The aura he gave off climbed rapidly, soon reaching the Quasi-Marrow Cleansing Realm. He said, “Patriarch Wan, can you give me a face and let the two of them leave?”

Master Huo’s appearance made Wan Rongzhe’s face change. The Treasure Pill Pavilion was a transcendent existence in Azure Billow City, and they have never gotten involved in the conflict between the four clans. So why was Master Huo standing up against the Wan Clan for a piece of garbage?
