War Sovereign Soaring The Heavens Chapter 1678 - The Death of the Rising Sky Mansion’s Disciple

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Based on the Rising Sky Mansions members discussion, it was obvious they felt Xu Can was stronger than Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion.

The strength Xu Can had displayed had greatly shocked everyone.

The Rising Sky Mansion is truly worthy of its name... The innate talent and strength of this Xu Can is actually more powerful than Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of the Rising Sky Mansion! Most importantly, hes still so young. Even the Flowery Monk and Jing Xu Zi might not be a match for him in terms of innate talent, someone lamented.

The Rising Sky Mansion is a fourth-rate force after all. Its normal for them to have such an outstanding young genius, many people chimed in.

The moment Xu Can made his move, it was domineering. To a certain extent, it could be considered that he had raised the name of Rising Sky Mansion.

The people from Rising Sky Mansion, including Xu Cen the Grand Elder of Rising Sky Mansion, had an air of pride and satisfaction around them. Xu Cen, in particular, was looking at Xu Can with pride-filled eyes.

This was his grandson!

His biological grandson!

It was only natural he was proud of him.

Xu Can took the initiative and made the first move today. It could be considered as a good start to todays Rising Sky Ranking Battle.

After killing the Early Refined Saint Stage sectless cultivator in a domineering manner with just one blow, Xu Can stood quietly in the middle and shut his eyes to attain mental composure. He ignored the eyes trained on him as though they did not exist at all.

He was the only person to shut his eyes to attain mental composure among the ten Ring Masters. It was as though he was not bothered if anyone came to challenge him or not.

Look at how composed he is! How rare! Ren Zhong and Liu Hong Guang exchanged glances with each other. Both could see the same thoughts in each others eyes.

They had seen many geniuses before. However, the geniuses they had seen were mostly arrogant and considered everyone and everything beneath their notice. They would be filled with pride as though they were invincible.

However, Xu Can gave them a different feeling. He was neither haughty nor impetuous as he ignored all praises from the surrounding.

Although many people said his innate talent and strength were even more powerful than Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, he remained unmoved as though he was an emotionless wooden doll.

This Xu Can... What a tenacious heart he has toward the Martial Dao! The shock was clearly written in Duan Ling Tians eyes. He could see how determined his heart was toward the Martial Dao. If hes given enough time, hell definitely rise up to the top. Its very likely the Rising Sky Mansion wouldnt be able to contain him. Although Duan Ling Tian did not know Xu Can prior to this, it did not dampen his admiration for him.

He could see the purity a Martial Cultivator should have in Xu Can. He only had the Martial Dao in his heart and eyes. No matter how the wind blew, his heart remained steadfast. His focus was solely on the Martial Dao. That was the purity of having only Martial Dao in ones heart and eyes.

Elder Xu Cen, you have a good grandson, Ren Zhong said enviously as he looked at Xu Cen.

Vice Mansion Master Ren, I heard your grandson has quite a remarkable innate talent too. Hes also one of the top-rate powerhouses among the younger generation in the Sky Hurdle Mansion. Xu Cen smiled humbly.

Well, you can say so. However, hes far from being comparable to your grandson. Ren Zhong smiled wryly.

The attention on Xu Can also began to lessen. It was quite boring to stare at Xu Can who was like a wooden doll.

I wonder wholl be the next to enter the ring. The people began to look around their surroundings.

Naturally, most of their attention was on three people. They were none other than the Flowery Monk, Jing Xu Zi, and Zhong Gu.

Time continued to pass, and half an hour had gone by just like this. Still, nobody made any move. This caused people to become anxious. Why arent they going up?

Finally, just as many people began to feel anxious, someone finally made a move.

An ordinary-looking young man dressed in plain clothes rose into the air as he carried a broadsword behind him. The broadsword did not have a sheath and was merely wrapped with a plain cloth. His entire appearance was very inconspicuous.

Although the plainly dressed young man looked inconspicuous, he garnered the attention of the crowd as soon as he walked out.

This plainly dressed young man was none other than Zhong Gu. He had finally decided to make his move.

Zhong Gu! I wonder who hell choose as his opponent. Many people were staring at Zhong Gu.

Naturally, he wont choose the few sectless cultivators. After all, hes also a sectless cultivator. All these sectless cultivators are quite united, somebody remarked.

I think hell challenge one of the two Rising Sky Mansions members. As it turned out, this turned out to be true.

When Zhong Gu went up, he indeed chose one of the Rising Sky Mansions Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivators as his opponent. The Early Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivators face turned pale when he was chosen.

Who was Zhong Gu?

He was someone who could suppress their Young Mansion Master when they were at the same level.

He knew he would be defeated if he was faced with his Young Mansion Master, let alone someone like Zhong Gu!

Although he dreaded this, he knew he had to pull himself together. He was not only representing himself, but he was representing the Rising Sky Mansion as well.

It would only bring shame to the Rising Sky Mansion if he had surrendered so easily.

Moreover, he was not worried Zhong Gu would kill him since he was a disciple of Rising Sky Mansion.

Perhaps, if Zhong Gu killed him, the Rising Sky Mansion would not be able to retaliate due to the presence of the powerhouses from the Sky Hurdle Mansion and Raging Wave Mansion. However, they had a thousand ways to look for trouble with him after the Rising Sky Ranking Battle ended.

When he thought about this, he gradually calmed down.

However, it did not cross his mind, not even in his wildest dream, that Zhong Gu did not have any intention of sparing his life at all.

As a sectless cultivator, Zhong Gu felt a sense of solidarity with the other sectless cultivators even though he did not know them because they were the same.

When he saw how the sectless cultivators were killed one after another by the people from the powerful forces, rage began to surge up in his heart. He tried with much difficulty to suppress it. However, when he was faced with the disciple from the Rising Sky Mansion, he could no longer suppress his rage.

Whoosh!

Without consolidating his Territory, he immediately formed a saber with his hands before he slashed at the disciple of Rising Sky Mansion.

His True Origin instantly surged up and turned into a gigantic saber ray that swept toward the disciple of the Rising Sky Mansion. Judging by the True Origin from the saber ray, one could tell he was above the Early Refined Saint Stage!

In other words, Zhong Gu was an Intermediate Refined Saint Stage Martial Cultivator!

Stop! When Xu Cen sensed Zhong Gus the cultivation base at the Intermediate Refined Saint Stage, his expression turned grave immediately. When he realized Zhong Gu intended to kill the disciple from the Rising Sky Mansion, he could not help but shout. He instinctively wanted to reach out and save him.

However, before he could even make his move, he was blocked by Liu Hong Guang.

Meanwhile, before disciple from the Rising Sky Mansion could even react, he had already been sliced into two by Zhong Gus palm saber. From the beginning until the end, he did not even use any technique or his Territory.

This was an absolute defeat!

The entire fell silent immediately.

After some time, the sound of heavy breathing could be heard from the group of people from Rising Sky Mansion. Many of them had a grave expression on their faces.

Although killing was allowed in the Rising Sky Ranking Battle, none of them were worried about their safety since they had the most powerful fourth-rate force in the Rising Sky Mansions district supporting them.

Would an ordinary person dare to publicly offend the Rising Sky Mansion?

However, someone had just killed a member of their Rising Sky Mansion. It was equivalent to giving their Rising Sky Mansion a loud slap!

All of them were enraged! Even then, they knew there was nothing they could do. At least not now.

If they wanted to seek revenge, they would have to wait until the Rising Sky Ranking Battle ended.

Amazing! Soon after, the spectating Martial Cultivators regained their senses and began to cheer in unison. They were proud of Zhong Gu.

Previously, they had felt upset as well when they saw the sectless cultivators being killed one after another. As a sectless cultivator, they did not dare to kill anyone from a powerful sect. However, those people from the powerful sects treated their lives like weeds.

Now that Zhong Gu had made his move and killed the Rising Sky Mansions disciple, it washed away the gloominess in their hearts. It was now replaced with delight.

Zhong Gu!

Zhong Gu!

Some of the sectless cultivators were so excited they began cheering Zhong Gus name to express the joy in their hearts.

At this moment, they no longer cared if they offended the people from the Rising Sky Mansion.

Zhong Gu had killed a Rising Sky Mansions member to avenge the sectless cultivators, and it would not be right if they continued to act like a coward.

The people from the other sects were shocked as well when they saw how bold and daring Zhong Gu was to kill someone from the Rising Sky Mansion. They only regained their senses when they heard the cheers from the group of sectless cultivators.

This Zhong Gu is quite a man. Duan Ling Tian looked at Zhong Gu in admiration. He respected this man who dared to seek justice for those sectless cultivators who were killed before this.

At this moment, Zhong Gus face was emotionless. It was obvious he did not care that he had just killed a disciple of the Rising Sky Mansion.

The way Zhong Gu had killed the Rising Sky Mansions disciple is similar to how the Rising Sky Mansions disciple had killed the sectless cultivator. They did not even blink their eyes. Duan Ling Tian had originally planned to go up after Xu Jing, the Young Mansion Master of Rising Sky Mansion, had shown himself. However, he was now influenced by Zhong Gu, and he could feel his blood boiling righteously in his body.

Right now, Im also a sectless cultivator... The moment he thought of this, he flew out immediately.

Many people immediately shifted their attention to him.

Whos this person?

Ive never seen him before!

He has been standing alone at the edge. Hes as eccentric as Zhong Gu... He must be a sectless cultivator as well!

Such an eccentric and cold person must be a sectless cultivator.

Since Duan Ling Tian was wearing a disguise, his appearance now was extremely aloof.

Li Feng? The moment Duan Ling Tian appeared, he instantly grabbed the Flowery Monks attention.
