Gate of God

Chapter 395: Explosive youth

Translator: Sparrow Translations Editor: Sparrow Translations

This was a teen who could go up against a Rebirth State Demon. A teen who had 388 Daos in his pocket dimension.

How could Bai Xing let someone like that live?

"Bang!"

A slap landed squarely on Bai Xing's chest, causing it to glow radiantly. Then, his body sailed through the air like a broken kite.

Blood trickled from Bai Xing's mouth.

...

Nangong Hao was slightly stunned. He did not think that Bai Xing would fail to dodge this attack. However, the fact was that his attack landed squarely on Bai Xing.

Something was wrong.

Nangong Hao never believed in luck. Also, he did not believe that his opponent would make such a grave mistake during a duel.

Bai Xing was the prime example.

Not good!

Nangong Hao was looking at Bai Xing, but Bai Xing was not looking at him, he was looking at the figure that was battling Wu Ji.

Bai Xing did not seem to be in pain. In fact, Bai Xing was smiling, his eyes glittering like stars in the night sky.

Mistake.

The first one was to bait the opponent in...

The second one was to take advantage of the opponent's aggression!

Bai Xing's mistake was clearly the latter. He wanted to make use of Nangong Hao's attack to augment his sneak attack on the dueling Fang Zhengzhi.

Nangong Hao guessed his motive when he saw Bai Xing sailing towards Fang Zhengzhi.

However, he was in no position to stop this attack. Bai Xing was quick, no slower than Nangong Hao.

There were only two people who could stop Bai Xing.

One was Nangong Hao, the other was Xing Yuanguo.

If Nangong Hao could not block his attack, then Xing Yuanguo could not either. Xing Yuanguo was even further away, and his focus was on commanding the soldiers.

Bai Xing took advantage of this.

As such, he did not hesitate to take the hit from Nangong Hao. He wanted to kill Fang Zhengzhi even before Xing Yuanguo had a chance to react.

However... the heavens always have the last laugh.

Bai Xing had taken into account all the people who could stop him to find the opportune moment to strike. However, he did not consider what Fang Zhengzhi was thinking.

In fact...

No one expected that Fang Zhengzhi would do what he did. Even if they thought of it, no one believed that Fang Zhengzhi would dare to do it.

Bai Xing thought that he would be able to end it after taking the hit from Nangong Hao. However, Fang Zhengzhi went around Wu Ji and rushed towards the cliff.

The torrential rain continued to splatter as it hit the puddles on the ground.

A figure encased in purple light sliced through the rain like a sword. It had a boundless killing intent as it carved a bloody path through all the soldiers.

None of the Great Xia soldiers could believe their eyes. Fang Zhengzhi was chasing down Yun Qingwu.

That was akin to a death wish.

Yun Qingwu had another vice domain chief as her bodyguard. Furthermore, as the young master of the demons, she definitely had some protective treasures.

It would be legendary if he could kill the general in the face of the enemy soldiers. However, even when Xing Yuanguo did it, he had the element of surprise on his side.

But Fang Zhengzhi was...

Just charging straight at her?!

Isn't that a little too ridiculous?

They could not believe it.

However, when the soldiers of the Great Xia saw the figure speeding towards them, they instinctively opened up a path. After all, they were on the same side. The more important reason was...

The aura of death surrounding Fang Zhengzhi was too terrifying!

It was so heavy that it sent chills down the spine of all the soldiers. It crested in waves, piercing through the torrential rain.

Bai Xing shuddered in his spot.

He never expected that Fang Zhengzhi would get away from Wu Ji and rush towards Yun Qingwu. That was suicide.

Even an idiot would not do that.

It would be a different story if he had come from atop the cliff and Yun Qingwu was on the field. Right now, Fang Zhengzhi had to carve a path through the army and kill her through her bodyguard.

Even Xing Yuanguo could not do it!

However, Fang Zhengzhi was trying it. This slippery teenager was going to try something that was so audacious and idiotic it bordered on the legendary.

...

Yun Qingwu turned back because she felt that domineering wave aura of death crashing towards her.

She had been drenched by the rain, her hair resting on her shoulders. The wind wanted to blow her veil up, but it stuck to her face.

"Go to hell! Young Master, go!" The young vice domain chief also noticed the purple figure crashing towards them. He smiled scornfully.

"It's okay." Yun Qingwu shook her head, her emotions conflicted. Her feelings were inexplicable, and she did not know where these emotions were coming from.

In fact, she had not felt anything from the first time she had seen Fang Zhengzhi till now.

However...

She could not forget that Fang Zhengzhi was the first human to brush her veil away. Not once, but twice...

What if she wasn't the young master of the demons?

Could he have been her confidante?

This was a question which Yun Qingwu asked herself many times. The other question was, if Fang Zhengzhi was not talented enough to threaten the future of the demons, would she really kill him?

Killing the talents of the human race was something that the demons had done for many years.

However, when faced with a true, legendary talent, one would hesitate to take his life.

This was truly conflicting.

To make matters worse, after Yun Qingwu decided to kill Fang Zhengzhi, she realized that Fang Zhengzhi was also doing his best to kill her.

"Do... you really want to kill me that badly?" Yun Qingwu murmured to herself as she looked at the figure encased in purple light.

This was not a question which Yun Qingwu should have asked. After all, she was supposed to be in control of the situation.

This question was stupid and naive.

Even so...

Yun Qingwu still asked herself.

However, she replied her own question almost instantly, "Yes, since I want to kill you... it is only natural that you want to kill me!"

A scene flashed through her mind.

At that time, she was alone with Fang Zhengzhi. She was playing music for him. Back then, she had enough ways to stop Fang Zhengzhi from leaving the boat, and Fang Zhengzhi had enough opportunities to kill her.

However, neither of them had any ideas of killing each other. They were just two friends catching up.

That was the first time in Yun Qingwu's time amongst the humans that she had no motive for meeting someone.

Her only aim was to celebrate the fact that Fang Zhengzhi had topped the River of Trust province examinations.

A few months had passed since that fateful day.

They met again.

They had not spoken, but they were now enemies. Yun Qingwu would try everything to kill Fang Zhengzhi, and Fang Zhengzhi would kill his way through an army to get to her.

Humans and demons.

That was their fate...

...

"Stop him!"

"Protect the young master!"

"Dragon Protection Squad, clear a path for Fang Zhengzhi!"

All of the demon elites and the Dragon Protection Squad joined the fray. The demons did everything they could to stop Fang Zhengzhi whilst the Dragon Protection Squad tried to keep the demon elites away.

Wu Ji paled.

Only when he started dueling Fang Zhengzhi could he feel the oppressive killing aura exuded by Fang Zhengzhi. It felt almost as if he was thrown into the depths of hell.

He was suffocated and his limbs were restricted in their movements. This caused him to be at a disadvantage in the duel.

"Killing aura, it's too strong! Why is the killing aura so strong?!" Wu Ji did not understand how a teenage human could have such a terrifying killing aura.

Honed on the battlefield?

Fang Zhengzhi had no such opportunity.

Hatred and rage built up since young?

That didn't seem likely either!

Furthermore, intelligence had reported that Fang Zhengzhi grew up in a small village and led a carefree life. He did not seem like someone who had would have a reason to hate the world.

Wu Ji could not understand it.

However, he knew that if it wasn't for the fact that Fang Zhengzhi's aura was suffocating him, he would not be losing.

But the fact was that he was losing.

Furthermore, Fang Zhengzhi had managed to go around him and head straight for Yun Qingwu.

"Chase him down!" Bai Xing's voice rang out in Wu Ji's ears. This relieved much of the pressure on his chest.

Wu Ji did not reply as he turned and sped towards Fang Zhengzhi.

He didn't really want to experience that oppressive killing aura again. However, when it was headed straight for Yun Qingwu, he did not hesitate to charge forward.

He was even willing to take the hit for Yun Qingwu!

...

The rain intensified, causing visibility to be at an all-time low. One could barely make out the features of the person next to you.

However, there was one figure who could be seen clearly through the rain.

It was encased in a purple light.

Thunder clapped and purple lightning bolts shot through the air. Waves of killing aura spread through the air. He was extremely quick, almost like another bolt of lightning shooting through the air.

"Stop him!"

"Stop him quickly!"

Panicked voices shrieked as they watched the figure shooting through the clouds. Black bodies threw themselves in front of the purple figure.

"Die!" A voice rang out from inside the purple light.

Then, the purple lightning flickered and a column of purple light shot to the heavens. Then, it turned back and crashed towards the ground, twisting as it made is way through the air. It exploded in the middle of these black figures.

The Returning Dragon!

This was the powerful technique that channeled all of that killing aura.

"Boom!"

A huge crevice formed as clouds of blood splattered into the air. All of the obstacles in Fang Zhengzhi's way were instantly blown apart.

"How is it possible that he still has this incredible combat power after fighting for so long? How much energy does he have?" One of the candidates asked in shock when he saw the crevice.

All of the other candidates also recovered from their shock when they heard this.

"That's true, why does it feel like he did not expend any energy at all?"

"How is that possible? He is only in the Heavenly Reflection State. It is already incredible that he is able to fight a Rebirth State Demon. Yet, he can still last this long?"

Questions flew through the minds of all the candidates.

They had all forgotten this momentarily when Fang Zhengzhi had entered a coma. However, once someone reminded them of it, it struck them like a bolt of lightning.

Fang Zhengzhi had been fighting for a long time.

He had started off with a battle with Nangong Hao. Then, he had been attacked by Bai Xing and Yan Xiu. He then defeated Shi Kou and was embroiled in a duel with Wu Ji.

All of his opponents were strong beyond belief.

Fang Zhengzhi should have needed to expend all of his energy to fight any one of these people. But, after all that fighting...

Fang Zhengzhi did not look like he was getting any weaker.

In fact, it felt as though his strikes were getting sharper and more powerful.

Is he even human?

Even if he was ungodly... this was getting a little ridiculous...

All of the candidates continued to ponder about this. The demon elites grit their teeth as they felt the full force of Fang Zhengzhi's 'The Returning Dragon'.

One of the demon elites was sliced into two.

Even though he was in the Supernatural State, he could not revive.

Three others were seriously injured. One of them lost a limb whilst the other two suffered internal injuries. All of these injuries would take an extended period of time to heal.

A single strike! One dead, three wounded!

How terrifying was this?!

All of these demon elites were in the Supernatural State. In the human world, they would all be generals, commanding tens of thousands of soldiers.

Shock and awe...

Just as all of the demon elites grit their teeth and prepared to fight to the death, the ray of purple light had already shot into the sky like a meteor.

It was flying straight towards Yun Qingwu.

"How is that possible?!"

"This... him... that's impossible!"

All of the demon elites could not understand how Fang Zhengzhi managed to transform himself into an arrow and fly towards the cliff.

That was until...

They saw a bow embedded in the crevice.

The jade green bow was supported by the two walls of the crevice. The black bowstring was still trembling from the release of that arrow.
