Chapter 279 Show of StrengthThe attacker was no slouch in terms of his cultivation. His cultivation of the Way of Sword was especially formidable. His Sword Qi was instantly felt, but compared to Su Emei and the nine-tail Demon Fox, who were both on the boat, his cultivation was a step below. If compared to Li Ye and the Son of God, his cultivation was much lower.

His Sword Qi was all speed and no force, which meant it could not do any harm to them. So they didn’t take much notice of it. Only the Son of God’s expression suddenly changed, he then frantically yelled, “Get off now!”

The rest of the crew did not understand, but the small boat began shaking violently and after a loud crack, it vanished. The crew did not expect the Magic Treasure to be so fragile. They all fell into the water like dumplings before even realizing what was going on.

Fortunately, everyone was masters with high cultivation. They steadied themselves and flew in mid-air. Then two more streaks of Sword Qi approached. Li Ye was able to recognize that it was the third strike of the Three Buyue swords, the most powerful strike of the three. When the attack approached, Li Ye dared not take it for granted. He wielded the Luke Sword and cut off the Sword Qi.

Since the attack was of the Three Buyue swords, then Li Ye knew who the attacker was. He already saw Nangong Diyi. So he retracted the Luke Sword and just was about to approach and pay his regards. However the Son of God snorted and rushed towards Nangong Diyi. He waved his sleeve and a cluster of dark smoke and cloud charged towards the opponent, “How dare a Spiritual Pool Master attack me, the Son of God. The world has changed!”

Based on the Son of God’s cultivation, which was of the Yang Spiritual Master level, he could change the climate as soon as he made a move. Dark clouds began rolling in the sky, covering the whole Qing Prefecture.

Nangong Diyi was not at all scared and he had no intention of retreating. Contrarily, he wielded his sword towards the Son of God and said, “How dare a filthy bird demon mess around in Qing Prefecture. Don’t you know who governs this land… Prince An?”

After Li Ye neutralized Nangong Diyi’s Sword Qi, he rushed forward and grabbed the angry Son of God. When he saw Li Ye, Nangong Diyi was taken aback. And when he realized his Sword Qi had been so easily neutralized, he stared at Li Ye with shock, “You’ve elevated to a higher realm?”

After saying those words, Nangong Diyi shut his mouth. Li Ye’s Yin Spiritual Master realm was apparent and needed no further explanation. His mouth twitched and he felt uncomfortable.

Back when Li Ye just began Qi-refining cultivation, he had already reached Qi-refining Level 9. During the war at Niushou Mountain, and he defeated the four swordsmen in mid-air above the Zhongnan Mountain, Li Ye could only watch from the ground. But now, Li Ye had already passed him in cultivation. The speed of his achievement was lightning fast to say the least.

“How dare you ignore me, the Son of God! And you’ve destroyed my Magic Treasure, I’m gonna kill you!” Roared the Son of God. When he saw that Nangong Diyi only stared at Li Ye and ignored him, he felt he was being ignored, so he wanted to attack again.

Among the demon clan, the Son of God’s status was special and his talent was spectacular. He had been used to being admired, so naturally he felt unhappy about being ignored. He thought highly of Li Ye, but he still was not worth mentioning compared to himself. First, Li Ye had only reached the Yin Spiritual Master realm, moreover he was a mortal, which could not be compared to the demon clan. So how could Li Ye steal his shine and attention, he was the Son of God after all.

He did not try to hide his swollen pride one bit. How could the Son of God of the demon clan not be swollen with pride. So he charged at Nangong Diyi with a whoosh.

Nangong Diyi glimpsed at the Son of God, but did not give him too much attention. Nangong Diyi also showed that he too was prideful. So he continued to talk to Li Ye, “Who the hell is this demon bird? And don’t you have any quality control on team selection?” Nangong’s words clearly revealed his disdain towards the Son of God.

“You dare to call me a demon bird? I’ll eat you alive!” The Son of God’s anger was hard to contain. He wanted to rip Nangong Diyi, but after making a fuss, he did no move because Li Ye was holding him back.

“Let me go; I, the Son of God, am not doing any favors today. I’m gonna kill this fool who dares to insult me!”

The Son of God tried freeing his hand with force, but he felt Li Ye’s strength. So he turned towards Li Ye with anger, “Li Ye, I know you are the Prince An and my alliance. I also know that you are friends with him, but I must teach him a lesson today. Otherwise I’d be losing the demon clan’s face…”

The Son of God saw Li Ye’s expression did not change at all, but Li Ye’s hand was still steady. He no longer held back and exerted all of his strength. Based on his cultivation, dark smoke began rolling around him and a dark pillar of smoke rose from behind. The pillar had expanded dozens of meters in an instant!

Seeing that the Son of God had turned serious, the nine-tail Demon Fox had no intention of stopping him. By contrast, excitement showed in her eyes.

As the childhood sweetheart of the Son of God, the nine-tail Demon Fox understood him very well. Though his actions were hard to predict and he always gave the impression of messing around, he was quite meticulous. He could do anything well if he put his mind to it. Otherwise he would not have stood out among the Great Sage Roc’s many sons. He had become the only one who could use the title ‘the Son of God’.

The demon clan had planned on making an alliance with Li Ye, which was clear. But as for who would be in charge, that was still up for questioning.

Not to mention that Li Ye had killed the Demon Fei and Dragon Lady along the way. His reputation was on the rise, and the Son of God had persuaded Li Ye to align, thus losing initiative. Li Ye’s reputation was now at the zenith. If the Son of God didn’t act soon, then Li Ye would automatically become the one in charge. Then he could order the demon clan around.

That situation was not something the Son of God and the demon clan wanted to see. The only way to turn things around was for the Son of God to display his strength. Whoever was stronger would be in charge.

The Son of God clearly knew that Nangong Diyi was Li Ye’s man, but he still wanted to attack. On the outset it seemed that the Son of God could not stand being insulted, but he was just using the situation to show strength. He wanted to take this opportunity and use teaching Nangong Diyi a lesson as an excuse to display his strength to Li Ye. At the same time it was a bit of a payback for harming Demon Fei and the Dragon Lady. And he could establish pole position for the leader of the alliance.

The nine-tail Demon Fox knew the Son of God’s strength. When she saw that he wasn’t holding anything back, a smile appeared on her face. She wanted to see how Li Ye was going to be oppressed and how Nangong Diyi was going to be whipped.

At that moment the nine-tail Demon Fox was mesmerized for she was the Son of God’s admirer. She loved watching the spotlight on him and how his opponents would bow to him because of his prowess. The Son of God was the only hero in that picture.

As she thought about that, the nine-tail Demon Fox raised an eyebrow towards Su Emei. It was to let Su Emei know that her man was about to get it.

Su Emei paid no attention to her, her expression didn’t change at all. She was still her calm self as though she wasn’t worried about Li Ye. That had annoyed the nine-tail Demon Fox, she thought silently, “You just keep pretending. Let’s see how long you can keep it up! Finally I can pay you back for chasing after me before!”

The tension and smoke between the nine-tail Demon Fox and Su Emei were clear. This was a battle sparked from their affection for their men. These were two women who put their men as the center of their attention. Though they did not battle physically, they were directly affected by the result of the battle.

The nine-tail Demon Fox stopped looking at Su Emei and focused her attention on the battlefield with a smile.

But before the nine-tail Demon Fox’s smile was fully stretched, it was frozen on her face.

Because the situation wasn’t as she had expected.

The Son of God was intense like turbulent waves in the river, his expression was also fierce. Contrarily, Li Ye was calm as usual, and you couldn’t tell how much power he was exerting.

Yet the Son of God’s hand was still being grasped by Li Ye, he couldn’t move an inch.

One second, two, three, time was slipping away. Yet at the same time, it seemed that time was frozen.

But the Son of God still wasn’t able to pull his hand away from Li Ye’s grip.

the nine-tail Demon Fox was so shocked that her mouth was wide open. She couldn’t help covering her mouth with her hand. As she watched the Son of God, her expression turned from confident to confused, then to anxious. She almost yelled out, “The Son of God, just get rid of his grip!”

The expression on the Son of God’s face kept changing as well. He was lost for words. He thought that based on his cultivation, when his power smashed toward Li Ye, Li Ye’s Spiritual Qi wall would collapse and make Li Ye let go. But in fact, it was as though his own Spiritual Qi had smashed against a dyke. Not only was it not able to penetrate, but his power kept bouncing back.

The Son of God’s face kept turning red. That was his own power bouncing back, which had put immense pressure on his meridians.

In the battle of pure strength and cultivation, the Son of God realized that he was actually at a disadvantage! How could this be? He was the demon clan’s Son of God, and he wasn’t a normal Yang Spiritual Master! But Li Ye was merely a Yin Spiritual Master of the mortal world!

The Son of God couldn’t help looking towards Li Ye, and he realized that Li Ye looked calm as usual as though not under any pressure. In fact there was even a hint of a smile on Li Ye’s face. The Son of God thought that smile was full of sarcasm. The Son of God flushed, for Li Ye’s smile had sent the message that Li Ye had saw through his intentions.

The Son of God was bitter about the fact that Li Ye was mocking him with those eyes. After all he was the demon clan’s Son of God and had lived for a thousand years. His pride had taken a huge blow. He wanted to dig a hole on the spot and hide in it.

However, the Son of God was thick-skinned. He retracted his strength and smiled. He then gave Li Ye the thumbs up and said, “Prince An does live up to legend! I, the Son of God had never bowed down to anyone. This time, I admit defeat!”

“He sure knew how to give himself an out. Thick-skinned people are good at that.”

“Don’t mention it,” answered Li Ye nonchalantly. Except his eyes did reveal a hint of sarcasm.

When the Son of God saw the way Li Ye was looking at him, he looked elsewhere. No matter how thick his skin was, he still felt embarrassed. He had intended to put Li Ye in his place with a show of strength. But now the opposite had happened. It was like picking up a stone and smashing it on his own feet.

But he hadn’t much time to think about it for his Spiritual Qi was tumbling inside, and he had to stabilize it.

When the nine-tail Demon Fox saw that the Son of God had yielded, she was shocked. She didn’t want to believe the facts. In her mind, the Son of God was prideful and heroic and he could do anything. So how could he lose to a mortal cultivator of the Yin Spiritual Master realm?

The nine-tail Demon Fox refused to accept the facts but she couldn’t argue either. She knew the Son of God and that he would definitely not yield unless there was no other choice. It meant that the gap between Li Ye and the Son of God was quite large… How could this Prince An Li Ye be so strong?

Just as the nine-tail Demon Fox was lost in thought, laughter entered her ears.

The laughter was quite soft, in fact if you weren’t paying attention, you’d miss it. The nine-tail Demon Fox looked ahead and saw that Su Emei was staring at her while laughing. It was clear Su Emei was mocking her. In fact when the nine-tail Demon Fox met Su Emei’s eyes, she even raised an eyebrow.

The nine-tail Demon Fox’s teeth ached from hatred. But there was nothing she could do. She was now feeling immense pain inside. If the Son of God couldn’t even avenge Li Ye for what he did to her, then she had no choice but to swallow what happened.

Nangong Diyi glimpsed the Son of God and added, “So you’re a Yang Spiritual Master, no wonder you’re so cocky. Though you’re a demon bird, with your cultivation reaching such a high level, you could be of help to Prince An. I see why he has recruited you.”

The Son of God had just stabilized his Spiritual Qi. But when he heard those words, he almost lost control of is Spiritual Qi and almost coughed up blood.
