Chapter 547 – Second Defeat

The playing field that the Little Demon Empress had delineated happened to be located right in the center of the Demon Emperor’s Grand Hall. King Huai stood out and said smilingly, “You guys please go ahead.”

All the family lords and county kings in the west seat had gathered to Yun Qinghong’s side, and the eleven participants who had been chosen, were standing behind them, as for the twelfth participant, naturally, it was from the Yun family, but it seemed that Yun Qinghong had not yet finalized who would fight in the battle.

“Elder brother Yun, I’ll leave it up to you to decide how to fight.” Su Xiangnan said. To have Yun Qinghong take the lead, I believe that no one would have any objections.

Yun Qinghong pondered slightly and said, “The rules of this match are not determined by the number of victories, but rather an elimination system, so the order of debut is not important, so who comes first and who comes second, let the children volunteer. However …… with my understanding of King Huai, he is a person who is flamboyant in his actions but extremely meticulous and cautious in his mind, even if he has absolute certainty, he still won’t hold back. So the other side has five ‘phantom demon seven sons’, he will a no less send on …… including Hui Dye! You guys have to be prepared enough.”

The heads of the families and kings nodded their heads, their faces even heavier.

“Although it’s impossible for King Huai to send out the first echelon with absolute strength right off the bat, he definitely won’t forget to give us the slip, so even though the first person to come out from the other side isn’t the strongest, it’s definitely not likely to be the weakest, so the first one to come out, don’t hold on to the chance that the other side will go with the weakest first, but rather, have the awareness of facing a strong enemy. ” Yun Qinghong slowly analyzed, his brows condensed as he said, “I have only one caveat, even if the opponent’s strength is strong enough to completely crush one, one must never easily admit defeat! In a situation where one is destined to not win against the opponent, going to the maximum extent to make him consume, or even get injured, that is winning the match! Winning dignity, and also winning a greater chance for your teammates behind you!”

“Understood!” The eleven participants in the back said in unison, each of their faces becoming resolute.

“Also, be sure to be careful about being knocked out of the range of the arena, the opponent’s consumption is minimized if you lose in this manner. Likewise, this is also the most desirable way for you to defeat your opponents.”

“Then for the first one, it’s up to me!” Mu Heng Yi of the Mu Clan roared lowly.

As his voice fell, his entire body had soared up, a prancing, landing in the middle of the arena, the moment his toes landed on the ground, the Cold Ice Xuan Qi on his body had instantly erupted, and an icy gale swept out to the surroundings, and with a wave of his arm, a long whip of ice crystals was swung up.

“Mu Family Mu Heng Yi.”

Five short words, but they were as imposing as a rainbow.

“Oh, so it’s Prince Hengyi of the Mu Family’s Third Great Elder’s family.” King Huai looked at Mu Hengyi with a rather appreciative look for a moment before sidling up and saying, “Which one of you will meet the battle?”

King Huai shouted, but no one responded. The corners of his mouth slanted slightly as he said, “Since none of you are willing to take the initiative, then this king will make the choice. Zi Huan, you will be the one to face the Mu Family’s Duke Heng Yi.”

As soon as the word “Zi Huan” came out of King Huai’s mouth, the faces of all the people in the western seats changed.

Zi Huan County King, the young prince of Zhao Wang Wang’s residence, and this is not his most conspicuous identity, his other identity, is one of the “Illusory Demon Seven Sons” that shook the Illusory Demon Realm, and is ranked in the fourth place!

Yun Qinghong’s guess was indeed correct, the first person sent up by King Huai was someone who was not in the first echelon, but definitely not weak. Even though there was enough mental preparation, the kings of the West Seat and the heads of the various families were still filled with nervousness, especially the people of the Mu family, a large portion of them directly stood up.

Because Mu Hengyi, it is absolutely impossible to be the opponent of this Zi Huan County King …… absolutely not!

In terms of Xuan power alone, Mu Heng Yi was at the third level of the Hegemony Xuan realm, while County King Zi Huan was at the peak of the fifth level of the Hegemony Xuan realm! Among the people in the east seat, his strength ranked in the middle of the pack, while among the west seat, only Su Zhi Zhan could beat him.

At lower levels of Xuan power, the difference between one level of a small realm could be said to be insignificant, but at the Hegemony Xuan Realm, one small realm represented a huge difference in strength. Even the Yun Clan’s powerful Xuan Gang could only go beyond a small realm challenge. The gap of two small realms between Mu Heng Yi and County King Zi Huan was simply irreparable, not to mention the fact that Zi Huan was not an ordinary Hegemony Xuan Realm Level 5, but was still the peak of Level 5.

Coupled with the fact that Zi Huan belonged to the Illusory Demon King Clan, although his Demon Emperor bloodline was very thin, it was after all the blood of a Divine Beast, and on top of his physique, it also greatly exceeded that of an ordinary human or demon.

Therefore, in this one, Mu Heng Yi would definitely lose!

County King Zi Huan, whose name was called out, froze for a moment, then stood up, glanced at Mu Heng Yi, and answered with a soft “Oh”, apparently with a very reluctant look. He leapt up and entered the tournament field, clasping his hands to his chest, squinting at Mu Hengyi, the disdain in his eyes, even a fool can see it clearly …… Obviously, he doesn’t put the opponent in front of him in his eyes at all, and is even very upset with King Huai for letting him come out to fight against such a weak person.

King Huai slowly said, “Zi Huan, Heng Yi is the first grandson of the Mu Family’s Third Great Elder, and is even the Mu Family’s number one in the younger generation, a formidable opponent, so don’t take it lightly, and make sure to go all out.”

“Oh, got it.” Zi Huan County King still softly responded, and then the hands of the Xuan Formation a flash, a body blood red long knife has grasped in the hand, the tip of the knife pointing to the ground, the other hand is actually directly behind the back of the back, and then to the Mu Heng a crooked mouth: “That …… Oh, what is your name to the …… hurry up and start, oh, you strike first, random attack.”

Mu Heng Yi’s expression did not change, but a pair of eyes were already almost spitting fire.

He knew that he was not as good as this Zi Huan County King in terms of Xuan Li cultivation, but he was at least the number one person of the younger generation of the Mu Family in this generation, the third son of the Mu Family known to everyone in Demon Emperor City, when had he ever been subjected to such contempt!

The eyes were contemptuous, the look was contemptuous, and even the words spoken were full of mockery and disdain.

Even if I can t win you ……, I must leave a bloody gutter on your neck!

Mu Heng Yi heart like a volcano erupted, he let out a low roar, ice crystal whip suddenly flung, dancing countless piercing ice crystals, such as the sky flying locusts towards Zi Huan County King, at the same time the body of the blue light flashed, a layer of ice crystals in the surface of the body was instantly cast, as his figure swayed, swept out a cold ice storm, directly rushed to Zi Huan County King, who hadn’t even set up a battle stance.

“It seems that Heng Yi has been completely enraged, and the moment he comes up, he will use the ‘Cold Crystal Extinction’.” A member of the Mu family said.

Yun Qinghong’s brows jumped violently at this moment before he sighed helplessly, “Damn!”

Standing there, a lazy-looking Zi Huan County King’s face suddenly flashed with a momentary cold smile, his hand behind his back lightning-like grasped on top of the hilt of his sword, and his body, which was originally devoid of any aura, suddenly erupted with a strong and incomparably powerful Xuan force field in an instant……. On top of the long sword in his hand, a piercing, blood-colored Xuan light shone.

His silence just now is not at all in the light of the enemy and arrogance …… but is clearly in the quiet accumulation of strength! Then it suddenly exploded at this instant!

Because of the Golden Crow bloodline, the people of the Illusory Demon King Clan had an incomparable talent for practicing fire-based Xuan Gong. Thus, although the kings of the Illusory Demon Royal Clan did not have the qualifications to cultivate the Golden Crow Burning World Record that belonged solely to the Demon Emperor, they all cultivated fire Xuan Gong.

This Zi Huan County King was no exception.

The knife in his hand was called “Red Blood”, and what he wielded was the “Blood Flame Knife” that all Illusory Demon powerhouses were afraid of!

Zi Huan County King in front of him suddenly from a pool of static water, transformed into a tsunami coming from the face, Mu Heng a rage under the full force of the attack, plus did not expect that this clearly a face of contempt for the enemy suddenly burst out in full force, he did not have half a point of avoidance of the possibility of only to their own full force, hard and his red blood knife collided with the front of ……

A blood general red light across the sky, the icy cold air was twisted into a chaotic storm, the flying ice crystals in the sky in just a moment all turned into the smallest fragments.

Bang!!!

Mu Heng a contains a powerful destructive force of extinction ice crystals were instantly torn apart, and with that, the ice layer on the surface of his body was also sliced …… The red light continued forward, slicing and chopping at his protective Xuan Li, a red aura, but also in this moment mercilessly erupted …… A cold smile , now on Zi Huan County King’s face.

“Kid, what we want is not to win, but to have you lose as ugly as you want!!!”

A whispering voice with deep mockery reached Mu Heng Yi’s ears, and with broken ice crystals all over his body and a long trail of blood, he flew out of the confines of the arena and smashed into the Mu Family’s seating area.

“Heng Yi!!!”

The Mu Family’s people let out a cry of alarm, and Mu Yu Bai quickly flew up, catching Mu Heng Yi, who was spilling blood and flying backwards, in one hand.

A deep wound extended from Mu Heng Yi’s waist all the way to his heart area, more than a foot long and so deep that his internal organs were visible.

“Heng Yi!!!”

“Heng Yi are you alright ……”

“Quick!!! Quickly get the injury medicine!”

The people of the Mu Family quickly surrounded the side of Mu Heng Yi, and several of the great elders worked their xuan power in unison to seal his wounds. Mu Hengyi gritted his teeth in death, did not let out a scream, but his face, was as white as paper, he took a big breath, looked at Mu Yu Bai and Mu Fei Yan, shamefully said, “Family master …… Hengyi is useless …… defeated …… so ugly …… to the family …… disgraced ……”

Anyone thought that Mu Hengyi would lose, but no one thought that he would lose so quickly.

Defeated in seconds …… without exaggeration!

Mu Heng Yi and Zi Huan County King’s strength gap is big, but with full strength to deal with it, it would not have been so tragic to lose, but the other party obviously has absolute advantage in strength, but still played a secret trick to make Mu Heng Yi angry with contempt and mockery, while losing caution, and his own appearance of disdain to deal with the enemy, but in reality, he has secretly mobilized the whole body’s strength… …In a completely frontal, all-out collision, how could a Hegemonic Xuan Realm Level 3 be better than the Illusory Demon County King, who was at the peak of Hegemonic Xuan Realm Level 5, and who had an absolute advantage in terms of natural strength!

Mu Heng Yi not only lost in seconds, but also did not cause the slightest trauma to the other party, even the consumption caused to the other party was very small.

The Heaven’s First flew to Mu Heng Yi’s front and poured in the power of the elves, and soon, Mu Heng Yi’s wounds stopped hurting.

Mu Fei Yan’s chest heaved, he did not blame Mu Heng Yi, but said with a grave face: ”You did lose ugly, and the defeat is worthless for this match …… but for yourself, it is a defeat that is worth it! Because fortunately this time to face is not a deadly enemy, otherwise, you will not be injured and defeat ugly so simple! Reflect on why you lost so ugly, think about it, you will live longer in the future!”

“Yes ……” Mu Heng Yi closed his eyes and said in shame, “It was me …… who was provoked by my opponent… …sensible defenses were all gone …… this lesson, I will remember it for the rest of my life ……”

“Well, immediately close your eyes to recuperate, what words, after the injury to say.” Mu Yu Bai finished, turned around and looked at Zi Huan County King with cold eyes.

“Cough, I didn’t expect that old brother Heng Yi’s body bones are so weak, the young king only had one slash, but he was injured like this, if I had known that, that slash just now would have been better with half the strength.” County King Zi Huan looked like he was blaming himself, “Senior Mu, in the middle of a competition, injuries are unavoidable, you shouldn’t make things difficult for Little King because of this, right?”

Being injured in the middle of a competition is not to be held accountable, not to mention that in the Demon Emperor’s Great Hall, in full view of everyone, so even though Mu Yubai knew that he had intentionally seriously injured Mu Hengyi, he couldn’t have an attack, and he let out a cold snort, not saying a half a word to the County King of Zihuan, and turned his gaze to Yun Qinghong.

They all could already see that King Huai’s side not only wanted to defeat them greatly, but also to make their defeat as miserable as possible, as ugly as possible, and to completely trample their dignity underfoot.
