Chapter 432: The Demonic Ape VS The Son of Heaven

The demonic apes footsteps shook the nine provinces, and the shoulder charge felt like it could topple the heavens themselves. The Son of Heavens silhouette staggered back as purple qi leaked out of his body, and he grew a little more transparent than before.

Chu Qingges face turned white, and a trail of blood flowed down her cheeks. Despite this, her eyes were filled with fighting spirit. She made a hand seal before bringing her hands down in one smooth motion.

An imperial seal appeared in the heavens. It was square-shaped and facing toward the four directions. The heavens and the earth formed its surfaces, and nine dragons were swimming around them. The words inscribed on the seal was, The sea is calm, all is peaceful under the heavens.

Peace Under Heaven Seal

The nine dragons acted as guards as the seal descended. The image of a peaceful world where the people lived in peace appeared.

Wind ceased, clouds paused, and qi stopped. The chaotic energies in the air, the rampaging gale, and the dancing sand all came to a halt at the same time.

For a time, the only thing that was moving was the seal, and it was brimming with the might of the world itself.

Under the seal, Ye Qing felt his energies dissipating, and his mind quaking like an earthquake. Before he could react, the seal slammed into him and sent him flying for a good distance.

He immediately climbed back to his feet and charged toward Chu Qingge again, however. It was as if the seal dealt no damage to him whatsoever.

Not one to shy away from battle, Chu Qingge too clenched her fists and charged forward. The duo was quickly locked in an epic battle.

Chu Qingges Son of Heaven Qi Observing Art was powerful, orthodox, and grand. It was like she had become the avatar of an Emperor of the Ages[1]

On the other hand, Ye Qing was a Chaos Demon Ape that heralded chaos and rebellion. Haughty and unruly, brutal and chaotic, his existence was meant to spread chaos and turn the world upside down. He was the rebel who would change the face of humanity forever; give the sun and the moon a new make-up.

For a time, the duo were locked in a stalemate.

What

Outside the platform, the Harmony King was utterly flabbergasted by this. He didnt think that Chu Qingge would fail to defeat Ye Qing even after she executed the Son of Heaven Qi Observing Art.

Thats the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutra, isnt it? Someone exclaimed in astonishment as they watched Ye Qing wreaking havoc on the platform.

Yep, someone echoed in agreement.

Isnt that the martial art of one of the Thirteen Brigands, Chen Ah Sheng? Where did the Qing Emperor Junior come by this martial art, Lord Hong? Someone asked.

Hong Jianglong had done his homework, so he wasnt perturbed in the slightest. He explained, Joyless is practicing the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutra, but it has nothing to do with Chen Ah Sheng.

Chen Ah Sheng hails from the Chaos Demon Tempering Sect of the thirty-six unorthodox sects, and the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutras ultimate martial art is the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutra. While Chen Ah Sheng is infamous for it, its hardly a martial art that only he knows.

One of my seniors shares a good relationship with the Chaos Demon Tempering Sect because he once did them a huge favor. As thanks, they decided to give him a copy of the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutra. Later, he submitted it to the Tower of Secrets.

Unfortunately, it takes an insane amount of effort and natural treasures to practice the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutra, which is why very few people decided to pick it up despite its strengths. It is also why few people know that we own a copy of the Chaos Demon Ape Body Tempering Sutra.

A terrible bellow escaped Ye Qings lungs as multiple veins popped on his muscles, and blood oozed out of his pores. The Son of Heavens head was crushed, and his right arm was ripped off his sockets just like that.

Pwack!

The second the silhouettes head was crushed, the blood abruptly drained away from Chu Qingges face. A mouthful of blood burst out of her lips as she wobbled unsteadily on her feet.

Ye Qings bones and muscles cracked like fireworks as he slowly shrank back down to human size. Blood was pouring out of his eyes, ears, nose and mouth, but instead of tending to his own wounds, he ran over to Chu Qingge and fed her a pill.

As soon as the pill entered her mouth, a bit of reddishness returned to Chu Qingges deathly pale face, and her eyes slowly regained their focus as well. She asked weakly, Is this Renewal?

That it is, Miss Qingge. Your mind is as keen as ever. How do you feel? Ye Qing smiled and let go of Chu Qingges head. Then, he let out a sigh of relief.

After he destroyed the Son of Heavens silhouette, Ye Qing immediately sensed disorder and signs of a rebound in Chu Qingges spirit. If he allowed the rebound to occur, he had no doubt that her mind would suffer a tremendous amount of damage. That was why he fed her the Renewal he received from Longing as soon as he returned to normal.

Although Nature's Water was a tad more effective than Renewal, and he didnt mind sharing it with Chu Qingge, it was too valuable to reveal in front of an audience. He already had plenty of powerful enemies. He didnt need to create more for himself.

Im fine now. Thank you, Brother Ye. Chu Qingge thanked him sincerely. My mind wouldve suffered quite the damage if not for your Renewal. Ill be sure to repay your kindness later.

Youre welcome, Miss Qingge, but its just a Renewal. Your safety is far more important, Ye Qing replied before teasing her a little, After all, I doubt Ill be able to walk away from this mountain alive if something bad were to happen to you.

Ye Qings face was covered in blood, but his smile was bright and pure. Infected by his smile, the small sliver of regret gripping Chu Qingges insides for having lost to Ye Qing vanished like smoke. She said smilingly, You exaggerate. This is a no-holds-barred duel where killing your opponents is allowed. Of course one or both of the duelists are going to walk away with some injuries. On that note, congratulations on your victory, Brother Ye.

Ye Qing replied humbly, I was just lucky. You would probably win if you managed to hold out a little longer.

No need to act humble, Brother Ye. A win is a win. Even if I did manage to hold out, youre still a long way from reaching your limits yet, arent you? Chu Qingge replied candidly.

During the battle, she had used the Soulstealer-class Strange Artifact, Reflection, in an attempt to catch Ye Qing off guard, while Ye Qing hadnt used a single Strange Artifact from the start until the end. It was clear that he hadnt gone all out, and that her defeat was well-deserved.

Im going to win our next duel, though. Chu Qingge declared confidently.

Oh yeah? I look forward to it. Ye Qing smiled back.

The sun was setting, and the yellow sand was dancing freely in the wind. It was a beautiful, fantastical moment.

How could this be? Why did Qingge lose?

Outside the arena, the Harmony King was quite panicked when he saw that Chu Qingge was injured. He let out a sigh of relief only after he confirmed that she was fine. However, he still couldnt understand why Qingge had lost.

Shes had the upper hand the entire time after she used the Son of Heaven Qi Observing Art, so how did she lose?

1. The original text is , meaning the One Emperor to be remembered for the ages. In our world, most people agree that the only one who fits the bill is Qin Shi Huang, the man who united the continent and became the first emperor of China.
