Chapter 843: Fourth Level, The Fall of A Chess Piece
The Deputy Palace Master didn’t waste any efforts on making a retort as his reply was clear when he condensed a flying energy wheel and sent it towards both Yue Yang and Chang Feng.
The ground burst at the impact.
The peak of the mountain was also divided into two.
The snake-haired demon man finally remembered the tragic way he was beaten up and hurriedly shooed Yue Yang away with his palm before conveying his words in a secret language, “This guy is a Deputy Palace Master and his strength should not be underestimated. Let’s retreat separately. Meet me at the White River City in the Heavenly Splendour Territory, I still have something to ask you to help me with. I’ll treat you to supper after that!”
Yue Yang thought, if that guy really waited for me to show up, he would probably have to linger till he was covered in spiderwebs [1].
T/L Note: [1] Pretty self-explanatory. It means waiting for a long time, because it takes a while for spiderwebs to form. Also similarly applied as the below with the term, ‘mushrooms’.
However, he didn’t reveal that he was trying to go in and break through the levels.
Instead, he smiled and nodded, indicating that he would definitely go to the appointment.
Hahaha, I’ll let him wait for me until he is covered in mushrooms from head to toe. At any rate, I probably won’t be going to the White River City for a few months… The snake-haired demon man was originally going to be the ‘boss’[2] as he stepped in front of the Deputy Palace Master to stop him, eager to let Yue Yang escape the scene first. Who would have thought that Yue Yang would lift his leg and kick the snake-haired demon man in his backside, sending him hurdling away from the scene.
T/L Note: [2] Calling someone boss can also be used for gang leaders. And as loyalty was a big deal back then in China, the leaders would usually stall time with the opponent to let his/her subordinates flee. Very noble.
Not everyone was capable of being the boss!
The snake-haired demon man who was kicked did not become angry. In retrospects, he was even slightly moved by the gesture.
He didn’t think there was a big problem to leave Yue Yang behind with the enemy. Although the snake-haired demon man was not optimistic that student Yue Yang could win the Deputy Palace Master, it should be no problem to stall him for a few minutes. The most important thing was that he took the initiative to stay and block the enemy, which meant that he was confident in his abilities as well!
“Remember to meet me, I really have a very important matter to discuss. I wouldn’t mind it ,even if you bring that cool young lady either!” The snake-haired demon man fled as he reminded student Yue Yang to not forget about the appointment they made.
‘You’re really noisy!’ was the answer of student Yue Yang.
The gallant guards of the Central Palace and the fallen warriors of the Dark Realm all flew up.
They wanted to stop him from escaping, but to no avail. Even if the Young master of the Dugu Family, Chang Feng, was in a state of shambles, they weren’t his opponent either.
In the end, everyone’s anger focused on Yue Yang alone. Had it not been for his arrival, even if they could not capture the Young Master Chang Feng, they probably could have beaten him up to the point where he could no longer resist. Now that the Young Master Chang Feng ran away, this kid had to stay no matter what. With him as a hostage, Young Master Chang Feng who ran would have to come back for negotiations sooner or later.
Boom boom boom! The Deputy Palace Master made several heavy moves in a row, but his attacks couldn’t even reach a strand of Yue Yang’s hair.
Even if Yue Yang doesn’t use his real strength, his fast-paced speed alone was not something that they could catch up with. He wore the ‘Acceleration Gloves’ on both hands and the ‘Winged Wind Silver Boots’ over his feet that were both taken from Elder Yu Mu, and the platinum-level ‘Flying Eagle Helmet’ that student Yue Yang casually made to deceive the warriors of the Heaven Realm.
No need to mention the ‘Speed’ sub-divine artifact ring, the Mysterious Three Styles, his teleportation skills or his ability of World Creation Domain.
Just an accelerating piece of equipment presented.
It was more than enough for the opponent to chase him with heavily breathing lungs!
Chasing chasing~
Student Yue Yang teased his opponent for a few minutes before he grew a little annoyed. In the process of intensive blocking attacks, he secretly condensed a beam of super concentrated comet energy.
Boom!
A mushroom cloud rose rapidly from the ground and the shockwaves generated by the flaming explosion reverberated throughout the entire space.
The interceptors in the center, which were the Central Palace guards and Dark Realm’s fallen warriors who were below the 3rd Level Heaven Rank, were directly annihilated and evaporated into smoke, not even leaving a scrap of remnants behind. Even the Squad Captains above the 3rd Level Heaven Rank were also severely injured, dwelling in the state of near-death. The fierce and vicious Deputy Palace Master was so angry that he couldn’t wait to tear Yue Yang into pieces. Unexpectedly, he had caused the ‘little mouse’ to transform, threatening the life of the ‘cat’ that he was. When he saw Yue Yang rushing into the central area, teleporting into the Rain Valley, the 1st Level of the Land of Trials, he became even more angry.
In his life, he had never seen such an infuriating human!
Surrounded by thousands of people, killing and wounding hundreds of the Central Palace guards in one blow, and yet he dared to rush into the Land of Trials that was forbidden entry by the Central Palace— he was really seeking death!
“If I, Shen Du, don’t hang your head on this iron rope, I will apologize to Master Ji Wu Ri and resign from my position!”
The Deputy Palace Master raised his head and roared wildly.
He handpicked fifty elites of the Palace forces, using them for searching and communication purposes as he prepared himself. Then, he suppressed the anger in his chest as he followed in pursuit into the Land of Trials. If he didn’t kill this human kid, the anger in his heart would be hard to quell. At the same time, he would not be able to escape from the blame when the Central Palace launches an investigation.
Whether in public or in private, he must take this kid’s head and hang it on the chains.
Only then can he wash away the shame of today.
“Ah!”
As soon as he entered the Rain Valley, the self-proclaimed Deputy Palace Master Shen Du realised that this kid had not escaped, but instead was waiting for an ambush at the entrance. As soon as they entered, he killed an elite guard of the Palace almost instantaneously.
As the Deputy Palace Master let out a string of curses and an unwilling roar, student Yue Yang, who was super fast and familiar with the paths of the land, kept widening the distance between them.
The more you chase, the farther you end up.
A few minutes later, under the helpless gaze of the Central Palace guards, he disappeared like the receding sight of wafting smoke.
Except for gritting his teeth and glaring at him, the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du couldn’t do much of anything else.
Times of games and fun will always pass quickly. When student Yue Yang set foot in the 2nd Level Wind Valley, there were only thirty people left besides the Deputy Palace Master. Twenty people were sneakily assassinated by Yue Yang, becoming one of the tragically sacrificed souls on the sidelines of the Rain Valley; when Yue Yang entered the 3rd Level Sand Valley, there were only ten people left excluding the Deputy Palace Master. Yue Yang entered the fourth level of the Desire Valley, and except for Shen Du, the remaining fifty elite guards of the Palace were all buried during the pursuit, becoming the human targets for Yue Yang to stimulate the Deputy Palace Master’s anger. If Shen Du knew that there was a garrison of troops up ahead that had no choice but to surrender their forces in front of Yue Yang when he used the World Creation Domain, he probably wouldn’t be as persistent in chasing Yue Yang as he was now.
In fact, Shen Du’s parents and teachers, who gave him the name “Shen Du”, wanted him to be a man who was rasional and not impulsive; to be a man who is humble and cautious at all times. To be a man who is not stubborn and childish, and not arbitrarily evil.
It is a pity that Deputy Palace Master Shen Du couldn’t understand the profound meaning of the name granted by his parents and teachers.
As he had already made all the mistakes that shouldn’t be made.
The 4th Level, Desire Valley.
Upon entering this level, no one could leave before completing the clearance test.
It was also a specific world with various special laws and restrictions. Once violated, anyone will become one of the people here and would never be able to leave.
“You finally let me catch up to you!”
“Kill, kill and kill!”
“I finally got your head! Weren’t you all high and mighty just now? Boast again for me to see! Hahahaha!”
In Yue Yang’s Creation Domain, the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du didn’t realize that he was just a complacent pawn that Yue Yang deliberately led. He thought that Yue Yang was exhausted and launched a crazy attack on the illusionary man. After the phantom reflection of the “Life Gate” in his Creation Domain, paired with Yue Yang’s deliberate misleading, Shen Du had successfully killed the fatigued ‘Yue Yang’.
He looked up to the sky and laughed, feeling very proud.
But he didn’t know that the real enemy was behind him, using him as a pawn to explore the way.
With Yue Yang’s strength and wisdom, it would be no problem to break through the Desire Valley even without Empress Fei Wen Li’s guidance in the form of her experience. But he liked things that are simple and labor-saving. If he could use Deputy Palace Master Shen Du as a pawn to open the way, he could move forward calmly afterwards. With such a great pawn, what reason did he have not to use it?
The invisible student Yue Yang quietly watched Shen Du’s performance in the Desire Valley.
After a triumphant laugh that vented all the pent up frustration in his heart, the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du only began to formally look at the Desire Valley.
At the entrance, there are two huge stone statues with severed heads. It seemed to be a pair of men and women embracing, but their heads were chopped off by an unknown person.
The two huge stone statues with severed heads were filled with a terrifying energy of resentment, which were integrated with the Power of Law from the surrounding space.
Looking around, except for the two stone statues with broken heads at the entrance that had some indications of carvings on them, everywhere else he set his sights on were practically naked. Countless giant stone statues like humanoids, orcs, and all kinds of bizarre biological forms, were all in various copulating positions.
Even the trees seem to be trimmed into this form.
Everywhere, everything was in this naked form of intercourse.
What irked the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du even more was that the space here, whether it was the wind blowing, the scent of flowers, or the invisible fluctuating energy— every single thing strongly appeared appealing to him, even in an aroused way. He became impatient and wanted to find someone to vent his frustration at.
“Damn it! This is Desire Valley, a very dangerous place. It seems that I have to be very careful!” Deputy Palace Master Shen Du had heeded the warning from his superiors.
“Ah, help!”
In the woods not far ahead, a panicked cry came from far away.
Student Yue Yang, who was fighting against the certain Power of Law, remained motionless. In the experience of the Empress Fei Wen Li, he knew what was about to happen. It was precisely because of this, that in order to save him from some troubles, he had deliberately attracted such a chess piece as Deputy Palace Master Shen Du over. And Shen Du, who had no consciousness of being a chess piece, immediately flew towards the source of the sound.
He found that several ugly centaurs [3]were surrounding a beautiful girl with the intent to rape this poor woman.
T/L Note: [3] Centaurs are humans with the body of a horse although it didn’t specify which half, but I pray that it’s not humans with the head of a horse because that would be slightly disturbing.
Shen Du did not immediately step forward. Instead, he evaluated the strength of both sides and scanned the surrounding environment.
He found that the centaurs on the opposite side didn’t even have the strength of Heaven Rankers.
There were no enemies around either.
So with a loud shout, as if the Gods have descended, he landed in front of the disheveled girl, waved, and killed the ugly centaurs in seconds.
What happened next, of course, was that the beauty fell in love with him at first sight and immediately embraced him, staging a different kind of battle that was unsuitable for children.
Afterwards.
The girl begged Shen Du to rescue her sister.
Out of contempt for the power of the ugly centaurs, and secretly coveting the girl’s sister, the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du, attacked the centaur camp situated tens of kilometers away like a God descending once again. He rescued ten people with different appearances, but all of them were hot and beautiful women. Similarly, there was another ‘war of attrition’ that happened. For the Deputy Palace Master Shen Du, he lasted three days and three nights. After lasting so long to the point where his legs became weak, waist and knees turned numb, he finally took down eleven women and earned their praises.
However, in Yue Yang’s point of view, this guy hadn’t left a kilometer at all, and the passed time didn’t even account for ten minutes.
There were no women— everything was an illusion caused by the Law.
The only thing in common with his illusion was that his legs became weak.
