1168 You Grotto-Heaven Masters Are Too Disappointing (2)
Hearing that Zhou Shu and the others were getting closer and closer to Great Xia’s capital, Emperor Yuan Feng fell into despair.
Now, he looked incredibly haggard. It was as if he had aged dozens of years. Logically speaking, this shouldn’t have happened to a person at the peak of the Earth Immortal realm.
But these few days felt like years to Emperor Yuan Feng. He hated how shameless Shang Qiuzi and the others were, and he also hated his own incompetence.
If Zhou Shu died because of him, then even if he died, he would be too ashamed to see Zhou Shu again.
If he implicated his daughter and caused her to suffer humiliation, he wouldn’t be able to rest in peace even if he died.
“You will all die a horrible death.” Emperor Yuan Feng didn’t even have the strength to curse.
“Haha…” Shang Qiuzi sneered disdainfully. If scolding could kill him, he would have died countless times.
He, Shang Qiuzi, had fought countless battles in his life. Countless enemies had died at his hands. Apart from the time at the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven, he had never lost!
That time was a great humiliation to him. But soon, this great humiliation would be washed clean by Zhou Shu’s blood.
As long as he could kill Zhou Shu, his defeat would no longer exist.
It was normal for the victor to be scolded.
“You’ll be free soon.” Shang Qiuzi sneered. “They’re about to step into hell!”
…
At this moment, Zhou Shu and the others had already crossed the city gate of Great Xia’s capital.
Mi Ziwen walked beside Zhou Shu and whispered, “Second Brother, be careful!”
Zhou Shu nodded, the smile on his face unchanged.
As Shang Qiuzi had expected, even if Zhou Shu and the others saw through his plot, they definitely wouldn’t leave. Instead, they would want to know what had happened in Great Xia’s capital.
This was the thinking of the strong. Zhou Shu could even kill Tang Lan, the master of the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven. He definitely didn’t think that anyone could kill him.
Shang Qiuzi had figured out Zhou Shu’s mentality, so he wasn’t worried that he wouldn’t come.
Just as they stepped into the city, a figure suddenly rushed out and shouted, “Your Highness, don’t enter the city! Don’t enter the city! Don’t enter the city!”
This person’s hair was disheveled, and he was in a sorry state, looking like a beggar.
“Commander Ma?” Yang Hong was slightly stunned as he identified the person in front of them.
This person was Great Xia’s Divine Constable Bureau’s commander, Ma Fengzhang. He was also Yang Hong’s and Sun Gongping’s former superior.
“Your Highness, leave this place quickly. There’s an ambush!” Ma Fengzhang shouted at the top of his lungs, his face filled with anxiety.
“You’re courting death!”
A stream of light descended from the sky and attacked Ma Fengzhang.
The stream of light didn’t try to hide itself. It was about to kill someone on the streets.
Zhou Shu frowned slightly. Zhang San instantly drew the Great Destroyer Heavenly Bow and shot an arrow at the stream of light.
Yang Hong and Sun Gongping also dashed out and stood in front of Ma Fengzhang to protect him.
“It’s too late to leave now!”
A cold laugh sounded above Great Xia’s capital. With a bang, the four gates of Great Xia closed, and a half-spherical light curtain appeared above Great Xia’s capital, enveloping the entire city.
“Brat, let’s see how you escape this time!” Shang Qiuzi’s voice sounded. He flew out of Great Xia’s imperial palace and looked at Zhou Shu and the others.
Zhou Shu’s expression didn’t change much. He looked at Shang Qiuzi indifferently. “I was just wondering who was behind this. So it’s you.”
Zhou Shu said coldly, “Shang Qiuzi, you should have gone as far as possible when I didn’t kill you last time. It’s best if you don’t appear in front of me for the rest of your life. Are you tired of living?”
“Me? Tired of living?” Shang Qiuzi laughed wildly. “You’re indeed arrogant!”
Zhou Shu snorted. “Shang Qiuzi, what did you do to the people in Great Xia’s imperial palace?”
“Don’t worry. They’re all still alive. How can I bear to kill them without letting them see you die with their own eyes?” Shang Qiuzi smiled sinisterly and raised his voice. “I’ll let those people see with their own eyes how I kill you and play with your women. Only then will they know that ants are ants. If they dare to go against our Grotto-Heavens, they will definitely not have a good ending!”
Zhou Shu’s eyes were brimming with killing intent. “Shang Qiuzi, I originally thought that you were just shameless. I didn’t expect you to be a beast!
“This time, you’re dead meat. No one can save you!”
With a flash of light, the Celestial Thearch Sword appeared in Zhou Shu’s hand. He pointed the tip of his sword at Shang Qiuzi and shouted coldly, “No one can save you!”
“Ignorant child!” Shang Qiuzi wasn’t afraid at all and laughed loudly. “Do you think you’re invincible just because you killed Tang Lan? The strength of our Grotto-Heavens is unimaginable!
“Brothers, everyone can come out now. Let this brat know what despair is!”
Shang Qiuzi laughed loudly.
Six Grotto-Heaven Masters flew out of Great Xia’s imperial palace and instantly occupied various positions in the sky above Great Xia’s capital.
Together with Shang Qiuzi, a total of seven Grotto-Heaven Masters erupted with boundless auras.
The monstrous auras filled the capital of Great Xia, and the city seemed to have become hell on earth. Everyone was like a small boat among huge waves and could capsize at any moment.
“Brat, aren’t you powerful? If you have the ability, defeat all of us Grotto-Heaven Masters!” Shang Qiuzi laughed loudly.
Zhou Shu’s expression was murderous. “You want me to despair just because you have more people? Shang Qiuzi, you Grotto-Heaven Masters are too disappointing.”
Shang Qiuzi frowned. He wanted to see fear in everyone’s eyes.
But be it Zhou Shu or the ants behind him, there was no fear on their faces.
The expressions of these ants were a little strange. Why did they look at him like they were pitying him?
Shang Qiuzi was furious. What right do a group of ants waiting to be slaughtered have to pity me? I’m the victor now!
So what if they were bullying him with numbers?
War was always unscrupulous!
“Zhou Shu must die, but as long as you kneel and beg for mercy, I can spare your lives!” Shang Qiuzi shouted coldly. “Kneel down and lick my shoes. I’ll give you a chance to live.”
“You talk too much,” Zhou Shu said. He attacked with the Celestial Thearch Sword, and a sword beam slashed at Shang Qiuzi.
“Wuyou, Little Lu, go to the palace and protect His Majesty,” Zhou Shu said as he attacked. “Big Brother, Yang Hong, go save Great Xia’s civil and military officials.
“Yao Buqi, go and help too.”
Zhou Shu instructed calmly.
Everyone nodded and left in a hurry.
Soon, only Zhou Shu, the Qingqiu King, Yao Qing, and the two figures shrouded in black robes were left.
Boom!
Shang Qiuzi split Zhou Shu’s sword beam with a single strike. His gaze was cold as he looked at Yin Wuyou, Yang Hong, and the others running wildly in the city, but he didn’t stop them.
So what if they saved people?
Now, the entire capital of Great Xia was a cage, and they couldn’t escape.
No matter how they struggled, there was only one outcome waiting for them.
The more they struggled, the more they would know what despair was.
Shang Qiuzi shouted, “Everyone, attack! Let this brat know who has the final say in this world! How dare a brat provoke our Grotto-Heavens!”
The other six Grotto-Heaven Masters shouted and suppressed Zhou Shu at the same time.
Zhou Shu didn’t even turn his head. He only looked at Shang Qiuzi coldly. “Shang Qiuzi, you can die now!”
He stepped forward and seemed to ignore the other Grotto-Heaven Masters as he attacked Shang Qiuzi.
The six Grotto-Heaven Masters were furious. They’re about to die, but they still dare to be so arrogant and ignore us!
The six Grotto-Heaven Masters attacked angrily, and divine abilities smashed toward Zhou Shu’s back.
Boom!
A few figures suddenly appeared behind Zhou Shu and blocked the attacks of the six Grotto-Heaven Masters.
Then four powerful auras belonging to Grotto-Heaven Masters soared into the sky.
Above Great Xia’s capital, Shang Qiuzi and the other six Grotto-Heaven Masters were all dumbfounded.
