Chapter 472: Their King is Back
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Several terrifying explosion resonated out. Even the northern side of Summer Rain City could also feel the series of explosions. The terrifying explosion caused them to feel as though the sky was about to collapse. Everyone in the city, including those peak-stage Soul Travel Realm experts had their eardrums rumbling as they lost their sense of hearing momentarily.
Swish!
Xiao Longwang and the others were quite a distance away from the core of the explosion and were the first to react. They did not have the slightest hesitation as they fled immediately. At the same time, every one of them released their various methods to defend themselves, preparing to block against the powerful shock wave from their backs as to avoid getting injured by the repercussion forces.
They were able to escape, but the Saint Spirit Kingdom’s Old Marshal met with a tragedy!
Because both of his hands were crippled, a lot of his attacks couldn’t be executed. He used both of his legs to execute a dao attack. However, this attack wasn’t a ranged attack and could only be used on hand-to-hand combat. Just now, when the four of them were besieging Jiang Yi, he thought that even if Jiang Yi had made a move against him, Xiao Longwang and the others would come forward to save him. Never had he imagined that they wouldn’t!
That bloodless complexion had currently turned ghastly white. However, because of his desire to live, he released an earth attribute shield immediately. Simultaneously, he launched himself a distance away in order to flee.
Unfortunately...
He no longer had his hands, and his essence force was badly affected. This caused his reaction speed to become a lot slower. Before he even managed to flee far enough, that terrifying explosion had already engulfed him. Before he even got to fully release his earth attribute shield, he was twisted into broken pieces by the crazy spatial distortion. Immediately after, his body was also twisted into pieces before being turned into a pile of meat, collapsing onto the ground.
The Saint Spirit Kingdom Old Marshal, one of the martial experts who had a heavy impact in the continent, had died!
“Pfff...”
On the other side, Hundred Blossom Lady and Principal Yu were smacked flying by the explosion shock wave while they each vomited a mouthful of blood mid-air. The duo’s strength was comparable to Xiao Longwang. However, Hundred Blossom Lady’s strength was weaker than Grandma Silver Flower. At this moment, although she wasn’t gravely injured, she could sense that her viscera were damaged after the shock wave. The blood in her throat could no longer be suppressed and surged forth.

A thunderous roar echoed by Hundred Blossom Lady’s ear. Her mind suddenly woke up from her confused state. Her pair of red phoenix eyes immediately swept around the surroundings while she locked her divine senses at the void around her.
Buzz!
Sure enough, the space beneath her started fluctuating as a figure suddenly appeared. A pair of bloodshot eyes caused her heart to throb as she cried out, “It’s Jiang Yi! Old Yu, attack quickly!”
Principal Yu was startled. His gaze fell downwards and saw Jiang Yi’s Fire Dragon Sword shooting out countless small fire dragons. He clenched his teeth as he tried his best to stabilize himself in mid-air. Meanwhile, he waved the fan in his hand with lightning speed as it shot out a sea of golden waves.
“Withering of Ten Thousand Flowers!”
Hundred Blossom Lady howled heavily but did not resign herself to fate. That pair of the exquisite hand of hers started brandishing around while she danced around in mid-air. Essence force in the surroundings gathered around her hands as it transformed into stalks of yellow flowers which floated down unendingly. That scene was incomparably magnificent and gorgeous.
Pong! Pong! Pong! Pong!
The yellow flowers clashed into the tens of thousands of small fire dragons, causing multiple explosions just like firecrackers exploding in the air. After Principal Yu’s attack clashed in as well, the explosions got even more violent. Because of this, Jiang Yi and Hundred Blossom Lady got repulsed out.
Hoo-Hoo!
Hundred Blossom Lady could see Xiao Longwang turning into a flood dragon and bursting his way over while Principal Yu made his way towards her. She heaved out a sigh of relief as if a burden had been lifted off her heart. It seemed like Jiang Yi wasn’t as powerful as what the rumors said to be. That attack might be very strong, but it wasn’t sufficient to kill her.
Buzz!
Just when she had relaxed, she suddenly felt an immense danger spiking up in her soul spirit. She had an instant change in expression when she looked down and saw that Jiang Yi had already disappeared from his original spot.
Her divine senses extended out very quickly as she quickly noticed the space behind her was fluctuating. Jiang Yi had appeared behind her; he was only ten meters away from her!
“Jiang Yi, since you want to kill me, we can just perish together! Blossom of Hundred Flowers!”
A thought of imminent death surged up in Hundred Blossom Lady’s heart. She decided not to flee as her body radiated in a multi-colored radiance. She released her strongest attack. Countless flowers whistled out from her body and revolved around her body in a spiral action. As long as Jiang Yi got near her, it was bound to produce a large explosion. Since Jiang Yi was so close to her, he would definitely die from explosions.
“Fool!”
Jiang Yi laughed coldly as his hands lighted up in dark green radiance. Suddenly, he sent out a few palm strikes which launched out lumps of flames. In every lump of flames, there was a divine dragon revolving around in it. The temperature of the flame was extremely high, and the moment it appeared, it caused Hundred Blossom Lady to feel her body being scorched.
Nine Heavens’ Dragon Flames!
“Ah—!”
Hundred Blossom Lady also knew that she had made a terrible mistake. If Jiang Yi had released the previous fire dragons attack, it would cause an explosion immediately. However, this flame of his was a real fire. Even if it collided onto her dao pattern attack, it wouldn’t cause an explosion. Previously, when Jiang Yi had burnt away Xia Tingwei’s pair of legs, Xia Tingwei’s attack was also ineffective.
She realized it too late. When the flame whizzed out, Jiang Yi had also disappeared from his spot. Thus, it was no longer possible for her to inflict a grave injury to Jiang Yi even if she wished to. When she sensed the high temperature within the flame, she cried out in fright while she fled in her fastest speed.
Tsk! Tsk!
Unfortunately...
The flame was just too near as the terrifying heat enveloped her, causing her body to start combusting in flames. The outer layer of her robes and her hair started to catch fire as she turned into a human torch. She fled frantically while hollering in the air.
“Hundred Blossom Lady, don’t panic. I’m coming to save you!”
Principal Yu was nearby Hundred Blossom Lady. When Jiang Yi appeared beside Hundred Blossom Lady, he reacted promptly as his hand lighted up in blue radiance. After which, he struck out a towering wave as it surged towards Hundred Blossom Lady.
This sea wave was very ferocious, and if it smashed onto Hundred Blossom Lady, it would definitely inflict her with serious injuries. However, if he didn’t do it, she would be burnt alive.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmMetal, wood, water, fire, earth. Each of these elements mutually supported and neutralized one another!
Principal Yu had comprehended water attribute dao patterns, and water was able to subdue fire. His water wave engulfed Hundred Blossom Lady, extinguishing the flames on her body.
The flames and water waves collided into each other. Because water and fire were incompatible with each other, the sea of flames and water dragon counteracted. Ultimately, the sea of flames disappeared completely. However, Hundred Blossom Lady was sent flying off by the impact of the strong water wave.
“Ahh, ahh, ahh...”
Hundred Blossom Lady escaped from death by a fluke. However, all of her skin was burnt, turning her char-black. Her jet-black hair—as well as her robes—was all burnt away. Her gorgeous face was filled with wounds and was still emitting black smoke. To someone who treasured beauty more than life, this ugly appearance was even worse than killing her.
Boom!
She got pounded onto the ground heavily as a lacerating pain spread across her skin. She started rolling on the ground as she screamed out in pain. The scream resonated throughout the whole Summer Rain City as it caused everyone to shudder.
“The Regent is back! Kill!”
Old General Lu, who was above the city wall, was brimming in excitement. He brandished out his remaining arm as he roared with all his strength.
Jiang Yi had returned. In just a moment of contact, he had managed to eliminate the Saint Spirit Kingdom’s Old Marshal and inflicted grave injuries to Hundred Blossom Lady. This had caused the situation to turn to their advantage and allowed the surviving soldiers to see hope.
“Regent! Regent!”
“Kill! Kill! Kill...!”
“Charge!”
Old General Lu’s roar had roused the remaining Great Xia Kingdom’s army and experts. All of them waved their weapon excitedly and shouted out with their loudest voice. The shouts were shockingly loud as it resonated throughout the sky.
At this moment, even those commoners were brimming with confidence. The Summer Rain City might have been destroyed, but the Great Xia Kingdom might not necessarily perish.
All because... their King was back!
