“Zhang shi, watching the fight between two God Monarchs is very dangerous. The shockwaves of their clashes could easily claim your life. You might be harmed if you head over recklessly,” Ancient Sage Zi Yuan said.
But toward those words, Zhang Xuan simply shook his head.
How could he possibly not know that?
But this was a fight involving those two. He could not simply sit there doing nothing at all!
He dashed into the air as well with his flight ability as a God King, but he realized that his movement speed was simply too slow. By the time he reached the battlefield, it would have ended.
“Young Master, am I late?”
Just as Zhang Xuan was panicking, a voice suddenly echoed behind him. Turning around, he saw a young man looking at him with a smile.
Zhang Xuan’s eyes lit up upon seeing the young man, and he exclaimed anxiously, “You came at the perfect time! Take me to the battle!”
It was none other than Little Chick, who had been reinforcing his cultivation back in the Azure.
It had been roughly half a day since Zhang Xuan returned to the Firmament, but for the Azure, more than two months had passed. This period was more than enough for him to fully reinforce his cultivation and return to his peak.
“Let’s go!”
With a nod, Little Chick slit through the fabric of space and pulled Zhang Xuan in with him. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had vanished from sight.
“It’s too dangerous for them to watch a fight between the two God Monarchs!”
Ancient Sage Zi Yuan was going to stop them, but he was not able to make it in time. He could not help but frown upon seeing what had happened.
On the other hand, Luo Qiqi chuckled and said, “There should be no need to worry if that young man who appeared earlier is accompanying him.”
“Who is…” Ancient Sage Zi Yuan turned his gaze to Luo Qiqi, but halfway through his words, realization suddenly struck him, and he narrowed his eyes in astonishment. “It can’t be that… he is the Deathless Monarch?”
His teacher had fought with most of the God Monarchs of the Nine Skies, so Ancient Sage Zi Yuan was able to recognize most of them. The only ones whom he had never met before were the God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom and the Deathless Monarch.
Luo Qiqi nodded in response to those words.
“But the young man earlier addressed Zhang Xuan as… Young Master.”
Kong shi’s direct disciples were dazed.
To be honest, they were a little dissatisfied with their teacher abruptly telling them to take Zhang Xuan as their new leader, but out of respect for their teacher, they had chosen to follow his orders.
But who could have known that the young man would actually have a God Monarch as his servant?
They knew full well just how powerful the God Monarchs were, so they could not imagine what the young man could have possibly done to tame a God Monarch.
This was ridiculous!
“Even though he has the protection of the Deathless Monarch, a battle between the God Monarchs is still extremely dangerous. Zhang shi won’t be able to do anything there, so he’d be much better off waiting here for the results,” Ancient Sage Bo Shang said.
“Indeed. If the God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom learns that he’s our teacher’s successor and tries to hold him hostage, that could very well throw our teacher off-guard and expose him to unnecessary danger,” Ancient Sage Zi Yuan said.
The key problem was that Zhang Xuan could be a liability to Kong shi once the God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom knew about their relationship. All the other party had to do was intentionally utilize a sliver of her strength against Zhang Xuan in order to put their teacher in a disadvantageous position.
“Your worry is unfounded.” Knowing what Kong shi’s direct disciples were worrying about, Luo Qiqi shook her head bitterly. “The God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom would never make a move on him.”
“Why’s that?” Ancient Sage Zi Yuan asked with a frown. “You shouldn’t underestimate what humans will do when they are in danger. Rules and morals become secondary concerns in such a situation.”
The God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom had gone to the extent of finding a way to descend to the Master Teacher Continent in order to figure out their teacher’s abilities. Given how determined she was to win the duel, how could one be certain that she would not use a hostage to force Kong shi to submit to her?
In a life-and-death duel, the only thing that mattered was winning. After all, it would be the end of everything once one lost.
“I would still have second thoughts if it was any other God Monarch, but when it comes to the God Monarch of the Sky of Freedom, there’s no way that she would hurt Zhang Xuan. That’s because…” Luo Qiqi sighed deeply. “That’s because she’s Zhang Xuan’s girlfriend!”
“Girlfriend?”
Ancient Sage Zi Yuan, Ancient Sage Bo Shang, and the others were all stunned.
The young man was the successor of their teacher, the Young Master of the Deathless Monarch, and he was the girlfriend of God Monarch Lingxi too?
What the heck was wrong with that young man? Why in the world did he have so many identities?
…
With a flicker of space, Zhang Xuan found himself appearing above a flat, empty space that extended all the way to the horizon.
There was not a sliver of spiritual energy or vitality in the air. It was an utterly desolate environment.
“Where are we?” Zhang Xuan asked with a frown.
If not for his cultivation having reached the God King realm, he would probably have found it hard to survive in such an environment, let alone watch the battle.
“We are above the moon!” Little Chick replied.
“Moon?” Zhang Xuan repeated in bewilderment.
It was also at this moment that he realized that the land he was standing on was emanating a silvery shimmer. There were brilliant stars all around him, and the massive Firmament floated some distance away.
They were indeed on the moon.
He did not think that they would come all the way to the moon in the blink of an eye.
God Monarchs sure were terrifying existences.
Looking around him, Zhang Xuan realized that there were quite a few people standing in the vicinity. Yet, for some reason, his Spiritual Perception was unable to perceive their presence clearly.
The owner of the massive face that he had seen back in the Sky of Linglong was among the crowd.
Surprisingly, he did not see the young man who had given him some pointers on his swordsmanship a while back, but the elder who had been standing behind him back then was there. Most likely, the God Monarch of the Sword Hut had teleported him there to witness the battle as his representative.
“So, they are the Nine God Monarchs,” Zhang Xuan muttered.
Those who were qualified to watch this battle were mostly the God Monarchs. They were the only ones who were able to go there so quickly in order to watch the battle, and they were also the only ones who could protect themselves from the shockwaves of the battle.
“It’s beginning,” Little Chick said.
Raising his head, Zhang Xuan saw two figures standing loftily on two mountains located several thousand li away.
One of them was an old man who had a snowy beard that drifted along with the wind, and his eyes were filled with deep compassion for the world.
The other was a young lady who had fluttering black hair and her eyes filled with the cool regality of a monarch.
Luo Ruoxin!
Zhang Xuan clenched his fists tightly together.
He had been thinking about her ever since they parted on the Master Teacher Continent, and he had thought up scenes of how their reunion would be many times before.
But he had never thought that this would be it.
She would actually be fighting a life-and-death duel with another person who was also important in his life.
Boom boom boom!
He could not clearly see what happened, but a crack suddenly appeared in the world. Countless lightning bolts devastated the ground, and the surface of the moon trembled nonstop.
Amid countless black rifts, the floating Luo Ruoxin and Kong shi made their moves.
Their movements were not quick, but every strike they made carried unopposable might that threatened to tear the world apart.
It felt like the moon would crumble under their might and fall from the sky.
After watching for a while, Zhang Xuan finally understood why they had chosen this place for their final showdown.
“Neither of them is able to utilize the power of the heavens on the moon…”
As cultivators who controlled fragments of heavens, if they started using the powers of the heavens, it could worsen the stability of the world, causing countless people to die.
As a result, they had decided to choose a battlefield where they had no choice but to rely on their own strength.
The shockwaves were so powerful that they swept over thousands of li to reach Zhang Xuan, but Little Chick fended them off right before they were about to reach him.
Unfortunately for the moon, it did not have someone to protect it. Cracks appeared one after another on its surface, and it swiftly became tattered under the clashes of the two formidable powers.
Zhang Xuan was not able to see through their battles given the limitations of his current strength, and he could not use the Library of Heaven’s Path there either. So, he turned his sights to Little Chick and asked, “Who do you think will win?”
