Chapter 332: Lesser Celestial King: I Bet He’s a Total Waste!
“Time Suspension!”
In the moment Zhou Tong opened his eyes, the world fell into a standstill. Whether ordinary people or Sages, everyone was frozen in the cracks of time and space, completely unaware.
“Time begins to flow!”
Nine seconds later, the wind blew and the clouds drifted as if nothing had happened, but the Lesser Celestial King’s momentum suddenly came to an abrupt halt.
The target in front of him had disappeared.
“What happened?!”
Everyone looked up and saw a young man had already appeared above them.
At this moment, Zhou Tong held the Little Demoness in one arm, creating distance between them.
The Little Demoness was soft and delicate, lying against Zhou Tong’s shoulder with a weak and helpless appearance, a happy and satisfied smile on her face.
Seeing this scene, many young men became anxious.
The goddess they dreamed of was being held by an unknown boy, this felt like a blow to their heads.
Especially Li Xiang, who was now trembling all over, unable to control his reason.
“I’ll fight him!”
He shouted, feeling that the woman he had his eyes on was taken advantage of by another man, and he felt his hair turning green.
“Mother, hasn’t the Sage we worshiped arrived? I want him to die immediately!”
“Don’t be anxious…”
Lin Ruoxii sneered, “It will take some time for the Sage to arrive. Let’s let that trash hold on for a while; perhaps he will die at the hands of the Demonic Race.”
Upon hearing this, Li Xiang immediately felt relieved.
“You are right, Yue’er will be safe because of her connection to me, but that boy is not guaranteed.”
“Look at him; he has not a trace of a cultivator’s aura. He is definitely the worst of the worst; if he doesn’t die, who will?”
“Who is this person?” I feel like he is somewhat familiar.
Someone whispered, and it immediately drew a response.
“Do you feel that way? I do seem to remember having seen him somewhere.”
“I remember now; during the battle in the Heavenly Dao Domain, he was the nameless one who triggered the Heavenly Dao’s proclamation…”
I don’t know who mentioned it, but it instantly ignited the crowd.
“That’s right, he is the strongest Saint Slayer, the Guest Senior of the Soaring Empire, the legendary nameless one!”
“Exactly, that’s him!”
Many people trembled, standing up one after another, looking up at Zhou Tong with admiration.
They had long admired this young strong warrior who was like a dragon, rarely seen, and now, finally witnessing him up close, how could they not worship him?
“Oh, you all have recognized the wrong person. He is not the Guest Senior; he just looks very much like him because he is my biological brother.”
Li Xin Rou shook her head, smiling proudly, feeling the exhilaration of being the only one aware while everyone else was oblivious.
The Guard Leader Old Zhao watched nearby, wanting to cover the young lady’s mouth, but ultimately gave up.
After all, the Empress had arrived; the truth would soon be revealed without him needing to explain.
However, the young lady’s reputation…
Forget it; whatever happens, happens!
“I said, how could such trash be that person!”
Li Xiang couldn’t help but sneer.
If Zhou Tong really was that person, then dealing with him would be tricky; thankfully, this was just a misunderstanding.
“Who are you!!”
The Lesser Celestial King finally regained his senses, his gaze locking tightly onto Zhou Tong.
The earlier scene was too bizarre; he had been about to slay the Little Demoness, but at the last moment, an extremely incongruous scene unfolded.
It was as if a segment of time had been cut out, separating him from the Little Demoness; although so close, she felt forever out of reach!
“You don’t need to know who I am; just know that this is your burial ground!”
Zhou Tong released the Little Demoness and walked toward him.
One step, two steps, three steps…
With every step, he walked on the void, causing the space to solidify instantly, becoming as hard as the ground.
“Transforming the Void into Reality…”
Below, the head of the You Family sighed in amazement; they needed a ninth-level Spirit Talisman, the Manifest Dragon in the Field from the Five Dragon Divine Talisman, to achieve such a feat, yet Zhou Tong could do it at will.
This showed he had already attained mastery in Creation, able to wield it freely.
“Want to kill me? Just based on you!”
The Lesser Celestial King grinned, as if he had heard a hilarious joke.
“Are you blind? Open your eyes; I am a Sage, and what are you? If you have the skill, show me your cultivation level!”
He roared but didn’t act directly; as a Sage, he already understood one principle.
In the world between heaven and earth, one should never act rashly in front of two types of people.
One is those with vast momentum; their strength is apparent, and anyone with a sound mind would never willingly rush in to die.
As for the second type, he just so happened to be facing one now.
Clearly having no visible cultivation level and concealing his aura, but an expert could see his extraordinary inner power at a glance. Such individuals are characterized by being unfathomable, making others hesitant to act lightly.
Of course, the second type could also be just putting on a show, perhaps merely a waste!
This left the Lesser Celestial King in a dilemma; he had been sealed because he had provoked someone of that kind.
As the saying goes, once bitten by a snake, one is scared of a rope for ten years. Therefore, facing Zhou Tong, he still held a shadow of fear.
With that thought, he felt a deep sense of humiliation.
“Damn it, am I supposed to run?! That’s absolutely impossible!”
He glared fiercely at Zhou Tong, finally making a decision; he had to take action!
That incident had already become his Heart Demon, and if he gave up now, his Heart Demon would only deepen, making his cultivation path extremely difficult.
Thus, he needed to kill Zhou Tong to dissolve his Heart Demon.
Even though the opponent might be a super strong warrior, there was also a significant possibility he was just a waste!
From a probabilistic standpoint, the odds favored him!
The Lesser Celestial King comforted himself: “I can’t be that unlucky, right? To encounter two reclusive masters in a row. Human military strategy says, deceive and reveal, reveal and deceive; I bet he’s just a fake!”
In an instant, his expression became incredibly firm, and a Sage-level aura emanated from him.
“Kid, put away your Illusion Technique; you can’t fool me. Today is your day of death!”
The next moment, a tide of Demonic Energy surged forth, transforming into a long sword in the palm of his hand.
“Kill!!”
He raised the massive sword above his head, this strike was imposing enough to easily cleave through the sky.
However, with a sound of a splatter, his movement froze abruptly, and he spewed a mouthful of blood.
Zhou Tong hadn’t even moved, yet a heart was now in his hand!
“Ah!!”
The Lesser Celestial King shrieked as he fell back, his pupils trembling violently.
“I remember some high-ranking Demonic Race members have five hearts. If all are removed, even a Celestial King will die immediately. I wonder if you are the same?”
Looking at Zhou Tong’s indifferent smile, the Lesser Celestial King had only one thought in his mind.
I’m done for!
