Chapter 904: End

They attacked back and forth for a while once again, and the old woman was quite predictably at a much greater disadvantage than before. When she seemed to gain the upper hand for just an instant, the saber and shield started to glow with the white light, but this time Jiao had a smile on her face. It was just too bad the big shield and the tilt of Jiaos face blocked the old woman from noticing it. Just as the two armaments detonated again, Jiao disappeared.

The explosion of two weapons was interrupted by the detonation of the ground underneath the two of them. The secondary blast diffused the primary blast and Jiao dashed towards the golden barrier that was erected in the distance. For a casual observer it might look like she was running away, but when the blast cleared the old womans eyes widened and she rushed to follow.

With the two of them gone it was also quite apparent that Xiaoqing was no longer there either. Her location was suddenly given away by a loud clang emitted from a place far ahead of the old woman. Inside the huge trench that had been carved by her violet blade skill, Xiaoqing was facing off against Jiao. Jiaos thick metallic gauntlets and boots along with the pronounced blue veins standing up all over her skin formed a large contrast with her petite frame, long soft black hair, and the previously bright and floral yukata.

Right behind Jiao, there was a large crack at the place where two layers of the Formation Arrays met. It was a location hidden from the two nearest members of the Lang Clan that raised the barrier and the trench in the ground made a natural dip to hide the crack from view. The old woman had detonated her weapons directly towards this spot, using their power to form this gap all in the hopes that Xiaoqing could escape out of it. Unfortunately, she didnt realize that Jiao was in mid-air and from that high vantage point, one glance was all it took for her to see the crack forming. With all of her effort for nought, the old woman looked devastated. The only saving grace was that the bell floating over Xiaoqings head had enlarged and formed a shield around her when Jiao struck.

Xiaoqing was hurled backwards and the old woman rushed up in time to help steady her. Jiao smiled at the two of them and then she lifted her hand and snapped her fingers. The crack in the barrier behind her sealed up instantly. Then a bluish green aura appeared around her body, sliding under her boots and gauntlets to leave every other inch of her sheathed in glowing energy.

Walking closer to this woman that had been her rival from the first time they met as little girls, Jiao smiled at finally getting the chance to deal with a member of the vile Yue Clan. Jiao had never been a fan of her own Clans practice, selling their young women to others in order to build connections and earn resources, but that merely disgusted her. In comparison to controlling peoples minds and erasing their free will, arranged marriages were not so bad. The Yue Clan was just too careful and well connected to be caught red-handed and they had other groups do most of their dirty work, just like the Yi Yang Group.

So, youre finally going to get revenge on me for saying you had a mans face and boys chest, huh? All these years and you still havent matured at all. I have no idea how you got so strong and I hope that wretched poison you inject yourself with kills you. Well, even if it doesnt, at least it shows the world how ugly you really are on the inside.

Xiaoqing released her most vitriolic insults, but Jiao merely smiled, treating her words as air. The final desperate attempts of a condemned person with their head on the chopping block. She walked closer and closer with a nonchalant smirk, staring into Xiaoqings eyes to watch the collapse of her mental state.

Many miles away, a soft voice spoke with a worried tone, Grandmother is putting herself in danger just because she wants to hear that woman beg. We need to remind her before it's too late!

The target of this impassioned plea was at the highest position of the command center with a dozen screens on the wall in front of him and two more floating near his lap. Yating, the Clan Head, just waved his niece away, Dont underestimate her.

Just as he finished giving his advice the projected display of Jiaos battlefield suddenly turned black. He reached out and pulled two fingers on the screen zooming the view in. With this enhancement he saw tiny crackling arcs of white energy, which confirmed the feed was still intact, but didnt answer the question of what had just happened.
