Chapter 626: Former Supreme of the Tiger Clan
Chapter 626: Chapter 626: Former Supreme of the Tiger Clan
"Get lost!" the leader barked coldly.
Zhong Shan\'s eyes flashed with coldness, but he didn\'t intervene, allowing Xianxian to handle the situation.
"Say that again!" Xianxian\'s face mirrored the chill in her voice.
The leader, surprised by her threat, looked at Xianxian with a mixture of amusement and disdain.
"A mere wolf general dares to speak to me like that? I can end you any time I wish!" the Corpse Spotted Wolf King sneered.
"Oh, really?" Xianxian smirked coldly.
The Corpse Spotted Wolf King frowned slightly before surveying Zhong Shan\'s group again, then turned back to Xianxian.
"Just you lot?" he laughed mockingly.
"I alone am enough!" Xianxian shouted defiantly.
"You?" The Corpse Spotted Wolf King seemed incredulous. Then he and his wolf generals burst into laughter.
Disbelief filled his eyes as he looked at Xianxian. The Corpse Spotted Wolf King, an Emperor Extreme Realm powerhouse, was a dominant figure in the underworld, leading all Corpse Spotted Wolves with immense power and authority. Today, he was being challenged by a mere wolf general?
Amid the laughter, a hint of malice flashed in the Wolf King\'s eyes.
"Eh?" A sudden sound interrupted them as a white-robed figure appeared beside the group. The instant this figure arrived, a powerful aura erupted, dispersing the surrounding blood mist.
A robust man with white eyebrows appeared before Zhong Shan. The soft exclamation had come from him.
Dressed casually in a short shirt that revealed muscular arms adorned with white wristbands, the man exuded immense strength. As he arrived, his formidable aura pressed down on everyone.
"Heaven Extreme Realm?" the Corpse Spotted Wolf King exclaimed, immediately focusing his energy to resist the overpowering aura.
"Girl, why do you have the aura of my Tiger Clan?" The robust man suddenly focused on Gu Qianyou.
While everyone else was crushed by his immense pressure, Gu Qianyou remained unaffected.
"You can sense the Tiger Clan\'s aura within me?" Gu Qianyou asked, frowning.
"Indeed, and it comes from the same lineage as mine. Who exactly are you?" the man asked sternly.
"Who am I? Who are you?" Gu Qianyou retorted without backing down.
"Haha, me? I am Yin Luo Ri. Do you recognize the name?" the man asked.
Clearly, this unexpected visitor was much more approachable than the Wolf King.
Hearing his name, Gu Qianyou\'s face lit up with joy.
"Yin Luo Ri? Yin Luo Ri? I greet the former Supreme of the Tiger Clan!" Gu Qianyou respectfully bowed to Yin Luo Ri.
"Supreme? Haha, someone still remembers me as the Supreme? Wait, how do you know I was the Supreme?" Yin Luo Ri\'s eyebrows shot up in surprise.
"Supreme, do you remember Ancient Shentong?" Gu Qianyou asked.
"Him? Didn\'t he fail to open the heavens? Even my son in the yang realm perished because of him," Yin Luo Ri frowned.
"I am Gu Qianyou," she said calmly.
"Gu Qianyou? So, you\'re a descendant of Ancient Shentong? No wonder!" Yin Luo Ri\'s expression turned sour.
"It\'s said that you signed the Tiger Clan Contract with the emperor back then. Is that true?" Gu Qianyou asked, staring intently at Yin Luo Ri.
"What if it is?" Yin Luo Ri\'s face darkened further, clearly unwilling to discuss this topic.
"The emperor once told me that you agreed to assist him in reincarnating into the underworld. In return, you promised that regardless of the emperor\'s fate, the Tiger Clan Contract would remain open to his descendants for ten generations. If the emperor lived, he would be the primary signatory. If he perished, the contract would extend to one of his descendants within ten generations," Gu Qianyou stated, watching Yin Luo Ri closely.
Yin Luo Ri\'s face grew even more grim.
"The Tiger Clan Contract has been missing in the yang realm. I suppose you brought it to the underworld?" Gu Qianyou continued.
"That\'s correct. However, Ancient Shentong is dead! The underworld does not belong to the Gu family! Besides, you are merely a woman!" Yin Luo Ri shook his head.
"How does Supreme Yin plan to honor the ancient promise?" Gu Qianyou pressed.
"Ancient Shentong is no more, and the Gu family is bound to decline. The Tiger Clan will not renew the contract with you. However, I might consider fulfilling another request," Yin Luo Ri pondered before speaking.
"So, Supreme Yin intends to break the contract?" Gu Qianyou\'s eyebrows shot up.
Zhong Shan allowed Gu Qianyou to persist, knowing that this was the crucial moment to fight for their rights. Once the topic was broached, they couldn\'t back down; otherwise, the opportunity would be lost forever.
However, Gu Qianyou\'s persistence finally irked Yin Luo Ri.
"What if I do? I will not renew the contract with you. The bloodline of ten generations is nearly extinct. While some of you remain, I can offer some assistance. Otherwise, hmph!" Yin Luo Ri snorted coldly.
Suddenly, an eerie pressure enveloped the area. There was no noticeable energy, nor did the plants on the mountain move, but everyone felt an intense pressure on their souls. This pressure evoked a sense of worship within their hearts, even making the Emperor Extreme Realm Wolf King feel an urge to kneel.
This was the breath of destiny, using destiny to oppress others. Not every Heaven Extreme Realm master could control this power, but those who could were extraordinarily powerful. In the past, the Guanyuan Buddha of the Blissful Pure Land had used this on Zhong Shan, but was thwarted by Tian Ling\'er, breaking his meditative silence.
Feeling the pressure, Zhong Shan stepped back, his pupils shrinking as he prepared to unleash his Samsara Eyes.
Suddenly, Yin Luo Ri\'s face changed, large beads of sweat rolling down his face. He stared at Xianxian in astonishment.
At this moment, Xianxian\'s entire body was enveloped in a gentle white light.
The pressure on Xianxian vanished instantly, and she glared at Yin Luo Ri with immense anger. A white aura surged from her, pressing back against Yin Luo Ri.
The pressure on Zhong Shan and the others disappeared abruptly, but Yin Luo Ri appeared to be under immense strain, sweating profusely. The six Corpse Spotted Wolves beside him were crushed to the ground with a loud thud, terror etched on their faces.
Zhong Shan\'s mouth opened in shock, then he quickly realized the reason—Xianxian\'s destiny? Xianxian\'s destiny was that of an immortal, an immortal\'s destiny. Yin Luo Ri had tried to use his destiny to intimidate them, but inadvertently triggered Xianxian\'s immortal destiny, turning the tables.
Yin Luo Ri never anticipated such an outcome.
"How can this be?" Yin Luo Ri looked at Xianxian in horror.
"Hmph!" Xianxian had no interest in talking to him further. Instead, she turned her attention back to the Corpse Spotted Wolves in front of her.
After all, Yin Luo Ri was facing off with Gu Qianyou, and Xianxian still had unfinished business with the wolf king and his subordinates.
"Hmph, now you see how powerful Xianxian is!" Xianxian exclaimed triumphantly, her newfound control over her destiny\'s breath making her almost giddy. She continuously pressured the wolf kings and wolf generals before her.
The six Corpse Spotted Wolves were in a miserable state. Their souls were gripped by fear, rendering them immobile. Xianxian\'s relentless waves of pressure left a lasting shadow on their hearts.
Seeing that Xianxian was ignoring him after breaking free from his destiny\'s breath, Yin Luo Ri\'s eyes flashed with a cold glint. Although the six Corpse Spotted Wolves were paralyzed by Xianxian\'s pressure, Yin Luo Ri himself could still move and even attack.
Before Yin Luo Ri could act, a figure suddenly appeared in front of Xianxian and Gu Qianyou.
Zhong Shan had been watching quietly all along. Noticing the murderous intent in Yin Luo Ri\'s eyes, he could no longer remain silent. He stepped in front of the two women.
Yin Luo Ri was slightly taken aback by Zhong Shan\'s sudden appearance. Although he had noticed Zhong Shan from the beginning, he had dismissed him since it was the two women who had been speaking, while the three men stood behind like servants. But now, one of these "servants" dared to resist?
A low, thunderous roar erupted from Yin Luo Ri, but it abruptly ceased halfway through. A vast, oppressive aura surged forth, akin to the might of heaven and earth, as if the very essence of the Dao itself was bearing down on him. The terrifying pressure extinguished any thought of resistance in Yin Luo Ri\'s mind.
This overwhelming force came from Zhong Shan\'s eyes, which had suddenly changed color.
Reversal of yin and yang, the opening of Samsara!
Zhong Shan had activated his Samsara Eyes, and the terrifying aura of Samsara instantly enveloped Yin Luo Ri. Fear filled Yin Luo Ri\'s heart as his soul seemed to be pulled towards those mesmerizing eyes.
Yin Luo Ri had made a grave mistake. His mighty roar might have enhanced his aura and presence, but it also lowered his internal defenses. This left him vulnerable, like a boxer exposing his underarm while boasting, only to be struck forcefully in the weakest spot, rendering him defenseless.
Xianxian\'s destiny\'s breath was merely oppressive, but Zhong Shan\'s gaze was destructive, a threat to the very soul.
At that moment, Yin Luo Ri deeply regretted his actions. Why had he come here only to meet such disaster? First, his destiny was suppressed by a young girl, and now he felt on the brink of death.
"Bring out the Tiger Clan Contract and write in Gu Qianyou\'s name!" Zhong Shan demanded sternly.
Zhong Shan had not opened the full Samsara passage, as its duration was very short. The current state was sufficient to deal with Yin Luo Ri and consumed far less of Zhong Shan\'s energy. However, even this lower consumption couldn\'t be maintained for long.
The Corpse Spotted Wolves, already intimidated by Xianxian\'s pressure, now felt the residual waves of the Samsara aura and were drenched in cold sweat. What kind of monsters were these people? Each one was more terrifying than the last!
Yin Luo Ri, feeling the overwhelming pressure, realized that the man before him wasn\'t using his full strength. Yet, his own life and death were at this man\'s whim. How could this be?
