Chapter 100: Chapter 86: What’s the Meaning of Being Number One in the World? (Part 2)
Yes, this woman is indeed beautiful, but among these martial experts present, not a single person dared to show any slight disrespect.
Each and every one of them even has a solemn gaze.
This person is precisely one of the candidates for the next City Lord of Sun and Moon Venerable City, and among them, the most highly anticipated candidate. Currently, she is just twenty-eight, yet she already possesses Martial Arts Power no weaker than many veteran top experts.
However, at this moment, facing everyone’s gaze, the once extremely aloof Sun and Moon Fairy now lowers her eyes.
"Yesterday, senior brother and second senior sister went to pay respects together, but were blasted out by master with one palm. Even now they are still heavily injured in bed, breath weak, master said, anyone who dares speak of Immortals again, dies."
"Outrageous!" Hearing this, some couldn’t endure anymore and stood up directly, "No matter how strong he is, even if he is the number one in the world, can he counter Heavenly Calamity, can he protect the citizens in the city! Can he do that?"
"Indeed, countless citizens have already died in the city, everywhere there are human tragedies. If he still has the intention to the throne, he shouldn’t turn a deaf ear."
"Haha, throne? In his mind, as long as he breaks through the final barrier, achieving Martial Arts Myth, the throne is easily obtainable."
"He can do whatever he wants, but what right does he have to prevent us from contacting Immortals!"
"Exactly. The grain in Fenghua City is running low, Sun and Moon City also refuses to provide grain, except for that Immortal, who else is there?"
"..."
Listening to these martial experts who are affiliated with Sun and Moon Venerable City, Han Si heard them becoming more and more dissatisfied, increasingly disrespectful to her master, yet she could only lower her head, powerless to say anything.
Just three days ago, she thought her master’s words and actions were absolutely correct.
Invincible Venerable should naturally have the aura of the world’s number one.
A mere Immortal Ship, just a clever construct, how could it be subservient.
However, she never imagined that just three days, a brief three days, would bring an unprecedented massive impact.
The cold wind rampaged, the temperature plummeted, merely looking at the corpses filling the streets felt like a human Purgatory, let alone those citizens hunched under the cold wind, wailing, yet could only shut their eyes and wait for death.
These are all citizens of Sun and Moon Venerable City, even, neighbors who watched her grow up!
In the face of such terrifying Heavenly Calamity, the power of mortals, how fragile.
Even if it’s the world’s number one, it’s the same!
Yet, even when she arrived here, she could do nothing.
She clearly understood that master had ingrained the invincible path in his bones, it’s by no means easy to change.
However, at this moment, sudden sounds of disturbance came from outside.
"Everyone, go to the City Lord’s Mansion, kneel and beg the Venerable!"
"Let’s go together."
"Go beg the Venerable, otherwise it’s just waiting for death!"
"I’ve received definite news, Immortals are real, not only is there the Immortal Ship but also endless grain! Endless frost coal!"
"Everyone stop staying here, grain in the city is already insufficient."
"..."
Accompanied by the voices, the noise outside grew more and more intense, seemingly many people had left their homes.
This made the people in the room all have a glint in their eyes.
"That’s right." The elderly man with a strong aura stroked his beard, nodding slightly, "Many of those wealthy families have their own channels, right now it’s the moment of life and death, no one is willing to wait for death just like this."
"Let’s go, we should also go have a look."
"Indeed, this situation is not insignificant, let’s see what the Venerable says."
"..."
One by one, people began to leave the room. Han Si hesitated for a moment, then followed outside, from a distance.
At this moment, originally completely lifeless streets except for the piled-up corpses and the whistling snow, suddenly seemed to be filled with many people.
The ones capable of walking out all have a certain level of Martial Arts Cultivation.
Indeed, all of them are pillars in Sun and Moon Venerable City.
Han Si saw many familiar faces among them.
Many are neighbors from childhood.
Even seeing familiar people still alive, a touch of delight welled up in her heart.
For instance, the owner of the small skewer shop she loves, the clothing shop where she often buys clothes, and the tavern owner who brews excellent wine...
Even if they were usually respectful to her, in just three days, Han Si had seen countless familiar corpses.
It seemed as if, the next moment, these people would turn into rigid ice sculptures.
And when they arrived at the gate of the City Lord’s Mansion, even more people gathered here, those whose True Power is insufficient are already shivering, almost unable to hold on.
The cries grew louder.
Some people even cried out, saying their own daughter had already frozen to death.
However, even so, no one dared to directly break into the City Lord’s Mansion.
Sun and Moon Venerable, in this city, represents the supreme!
And just as some people thought Sun and Moon Venerable wouldn’t come out, a man wearing a purple robe, radiating intense heat all over his body, slowly walked out.
With his appearance, even the howling storm seemed to halt.
The surrounding air showed a tangible change, as if a large sun and moon ovals appeared behind the man, reflecting in everyone’s eyes.
Even among some major experts, it was the same.
This represents incomparably powerful Primordial Spirit Power!
"Venerable!"
Before the City Lord’s Mansion, a vast number of people kneeled, even those experts who had just expressed dissatisfaction verbally, now knelt on the ground.
Behind the scenes is one thing, but when face to face, everyone can feel this indescribable terror.
World’s number one, perhaps not everyone admits.
Yet equally, no one dared stand up against!
This is the pressure brought by the strongest person of the present!
However, Sun and Moon Venerable who walked out amidst the expectations of thousands had slightly furrowed brows.
Familiar with her own master, Han Si’s heart trembled.
This is definitely not an expression of permission!
Sure enough, Sun and Moon Venerable with both hands behind his back, his voice accompanied by terrifying True Power, slowly spread, permeating through half of the city continuously, "In the eyes of the Venerable, be it Sun and Moon City, or you all, even the entire world, none have any meaning, only world’s number one, Martial Arts Myth, that’s what this Venerable pursues in this life. If you understand, disperse now, do not disturb the Venerable’s mindset further, otherwise, die."
Alongside the last sentence, he had already raised his right hand, terrifying True Essence constantly gathered in his palm.
Bringing rolling pressure.
Even causing frightful voices to emerge among the crowd, some people quickly turned and ran.
If this palm were to hit, not to mention everyone present, even this entire area would fearfully turn into ruins!
But, there were still a large number of citizens at the scene, unwilling to leave.
Even if they’d heard the words of their Venerable, but what good would leaving do, still a dead-end.
Each and every one of them continued crying, begging while looking at Sun and Moon Venerable.
However, Sun and Moon Venerable remained expressionless.
If he could provide an explanation, he was already considerate to these people.
If they wouldn’t leave, then let them die.
This palm directly descended.
Among the crowd, many had already closed their eyes in despair, even Han Si hiding in the back was lying limp on the ground, she couldn’t bear to witness this terrifying and cruel scene.
Is this what is called Venerable?
Yet, at this moment.
A beam of light suddenly flashed across everyone’s sight.
Silently.
But all present were frozen in place in that instant, even faces filled with shock.
Including Sun and Moon Venerable.
He stared in disbelief, barely daring to believe what he witnessed.
Only to see, on this Venerable’s chest, an enormous blood hole the size of a basketball appeared there, regardless of his indestructible body or his immensely powerful flesh, all vanished.
World’s number one, fell with a massive thud.
The powerful Primordial Spirit prevented instant death, but amidst the surging sense of powerlessness, he blankly saw the sky, where there was an exceedingly large airborne city, slowly descending from the clouds.
Bringing a sound that echoed throughout the entire city.
"World’s number one, what is its meaning?"
