Translator: Tat Editor: Rundi

On the empty field, Huang Jiu Ge was grinning from ear to ear. Her words silenced the entire place.

Everyone widened their eyes, not understanding what had just happened. Even the powerhouses were a little stunned.

Master?

The pure-blooded phoenix is a servant of this man?

After everyone cleared their heads, they gasped in cold air.

“What the! What did the phoenix fairy say? She said she is a servant of Ling Xian’s?”

“We heard it wrong, we must’ve. She is a pure-blooded phoenix, how can she be a human’s servant?”

“Impossible, definitely impossible! You are my goddess, how can you work for a human?”

Everyone chimed in and their voices were full of disbelief or rather, they refused to believe.

They were treating Huang Jiu Ge as the goddess in their minds yet just now, she had just stated that she was Ling Xian’s servant and tossed in a white flag. How could they accept this?

It was like the treasure everyone treated as their most valuable possession suddenly became worth less than hay to someone else.

This strike to everyone was relatively big. Everyone was stunned.

Then, they heard the sound of their hearts breaking.

Just then, Huang Jiu Ge opened her lips again and tossed salt on their wounds.

“He is my Master. Do you have any issues with that?”

Huang Jiu Ge was looking powerful as she glanced over the crowd, petrifying everyone else again.

What the!

So it’s true!

After acquiring Huang Jiu Ge’s confirmation, everyone cried tearlessly. Not only did their hearts break, they felt the salt on their wounds.

Their most beloved goddess was someone else’s servant. This feeling was indescribable and definitely did not taste good.

At once, the way everyone looked at Ling Xian had changed. Other than jealousy, there was shock.

Remember that Huang Jiu Ge is a pure-blooded phoenix, the most respected foreign kind. Their status in this world is like the daughter of a royal, a princess!

Yet he has enslaved a princess from the foreign kind. How unbelievable was this? Why wouldn’t everyone be shocked?

Even the leader of the palace was a little stunned.

A pure-blooded phoenix!

This beast is proud and royal yet it is serving a human being. In the long history of cultivation, this has never happened before!

At least there are no records of this in books.

Therefore, why wouldn’t everyone be in awe? As much as they were astounded, most people were starting to get really jealous of Ling Xian.

They were jealous of his powerfulness, his luck, and the fact that their Goddess is his servant!

But when they remembered how he defeated Zhan Cang Feng, everyone shuddered. They all concealed their envious emotions and they didn’t dare to reveal it.

They were afraid that they would piss off Ling Xian and be slapped to death by him.

“That was fun.”

Ling Xian shook his head and smiled, “Jiu Ge, you don’t want to fight against me?”

“As your servant, I don’t dare.”

Huang Jiu Ge was smiling like a flower. “I was never interested in being the world’s number one and I know I am no opponent of yours. Why should we go through with battling?”

“That’s true.”

Ling Xian smiled. He knew that Huang Jiu Ge had no desire to win this and didn’t want to fight against him.

“Leader, I admit my defeat.”

Huang Jiu Ge looked over to the elder and smirked, “Master wins this one right?”

“Naturally.”

The elder stroked his beard. Since you admit your loss voluntarily, I will not object.”

Then, he glanced over to the others, “All four groups have finished fighting. Let us begin the next round.”

Hearing this, Ling Xian’s expression darkened. He knew that the real fight was just starting.

Whether it is Le Wu Ya or Leng Bie Qing, or the mysterious cultivator who defeated Su Li Yu, all of them are extremely powerful.

Even someone as strong as he needed to be careful.

Le Wu Ya and Leng Bi Qing wore heavy expressions. Especially when they saw the mysterious powerhouse, their eyes were full of caution.

That was an emotion everyone shared.

Su Li Yu was extremely powerful, like the reincarnation of the immortal of the sword, every slash of his sword had enough power to rip apart the ground. Yet he had lost against this person. So why wouldn’t everyone be frightened?

“The second round will be Ling Xian against Leng Bie Qing, Le Wu Ya against you.”

The elder said softly and looked over to the man covered in fog. He grinned, “We have gotten this far, do you want to tell me your name?”

“Di Jun.”

The man opened his lips, his voice was simple but full of arrogance.

When he said his name, everyone was stunned.

Di Jun?

What an overbearing name!

Everyone’s eyes appeared shocked. They felt a gush of power from that person’s name.

“Di Jun… this name sounds a little familiar…”

Someone frowned and pondered a bit before widening his eyes and shirked, “You are the demon who single-handedly turned Huangzhou upside down 40 years ago!”

Those words stunned everyone from Huangzhou. They then all gasped.

Forty years ago, a demonic existence provoked the entire Huangzhou and won against the continent. It wasn’t that this person was stronger than everyone. It was that all the powerful beings in Huangzhou were capped at the completion level.

In the end, everyone lost to Di Jun.

That fight lasted a whole month and hundreds and thousands of people participated in it. They were all either famous Heaven’s Favorites or famous omnipotent. None of them were weak.

However, everyone lost to this person. How unbelievable was this?

It was basically heaven-defying!

After that battle, Di Jun disappeared and never reappeared. Today, his name arose again, reminding everyone of that humiliating and shocking period.

“It’s him… the demon who turned the entire continent upside down!”

Everyone chimed in and recited the entire story.

Afterward, everyone understood what had happened and were all just as shocked.

Even Ling Xian had a dark expression that was of cautiousness.

Provoking an entire continent… though he didn’t necessarily defeat the entire continent, his history has proven a cruel reality. Out of everyone in his own generation, nobody could win against him!

A rare genius from his continent!

How few people can achieve that?

“Le Wu Ya, I have heard of you. You can start.”

Di Jun spoke emotionlessly. He lifted himself into the battle ring and his energy diffused around.

This froze Le Wu Ya’s face and he marched into the battle ring and began to emit extremely terrifying power.

HOMMMM!

Energy filled the air and the space shook. The two powerhouses have yet to exchange any moves yet the heavens had showed signs of cracking.

“You are powerful but you are no opponent of mine. The number one title belongs to me only.”

Di Jun was overbearing. He pointed out his index finger and it acted like a Buddha’s hand that created a storm of undefeatable energy!

At once, Le Wu Ya’s expression changed. He began to play a heavenly song that echoed throughout the world.

Ling Xian’s expression changed at this as well.

He sensed that this point of the index finger was endless in power and was extremely powerful. Even if it was him who was up against it, he would get hurt!
