Chapter 443 - 440 Chaotic Scene
"Damn it!"
"A dragon corpse!"
"There really is a dragon corpse!"
"The rumors are true!"
"And there's a bronze coffin! Looks awesome too!"
"Hurry, hurry, hurry, intercept it, don't let them get away!"
...
As soon as the bronze coffin dragging the dragon corpse appeared, it caused a huge commotion, and everyone surrounded it.
"King of the North! Didn't you say the dragon corpse didn't exist? How do you explain this now?" Nangong Qi demanded.
"I knew you were up to no good," snorted Niu Xiangnan. "Trying to send us away so you can have the dragon corpse to yourself! Such a cunning plan!"
"So cunning!"
"So deceitful!"
"So not cool!"
"Lucky we weren't fooled."
A group of people angrily accused King Li He of the North.
King Li He of the North only had eyes for the bronze coffin and the dragon corpse, and he had no intention of dealing with Nangong Qi and the others. He leaped forward, hurling himself toward the dragon corpse: "The dragon corpse is mine! No one is allowed to snatch it!"
"Why can't we snatch it? King of the North, aren't you being too tyrannical?"
"Whoever snatches it owns it!"
"Dragon corpse, here I come!"
Nangong Qi and the others spread out and charged towards the dragon corpse.
"Bang bang bang!"
"Clang clang clang!"
"Clank clank clank!"
To fight for the dragon corpse, King Li He of the North and Nangong Qi began a fierce battle.
Everyone's strength was comparable; it was impossible to determine a winner in a short time.
"Are you trying to rebel?" King Li He of the North roared. "Believe it or not, I will send a large army to flatten your clans, your sects!"
"Who are you trying to scare?" Nangong Qi laughed coldly. "If a war really breaks out, it's still unclear who will win and who will lose!"
"King of the North, you might scare others with those words, but trying to scare us...you're still lacking a bit of skill."
"I really don't understand what the emperor was thinking, how did he even make you a prince? Your IQ is really too low."
"Definitely because your ass-kissing skills are good. The emperor got happy, and just like that, you became King Li He of the North."
Everyone took turns mocking King Li He of the North, especially Nangong Qi, who was extra vicious with his words, nearly driving King Li He to fury.
"Nangong Qi! Niu Xiangnan... You bastards! I'll kill you all sooner or later!!!" King Li He roared in anger.
"Guys, I have a suggestion," Nangong Qi said loudly while fending off other people's attacks. "Let's join forces to deal with Li He first. After kicking Li He out, we'll compete for the dragon corpse based on our abilities. What do you think?"
"Good idea! I agree!" Niu Xiangnan was the first to express his stance.
"I agree too!"
"I have no objections!"
"I've disliked Li He for a long time."
...
"Bastards!" King Li He's face changed. "You all gang up to attack me alone, what kind of skill is that! If you have the guts, fight me one-on-one! If any of you can defeat me, I will accept his leadership!"
"We'll just gang up on you, what can you do about it?" laughed Nangong Qi. "Are you very angry, very frustrated, very agitated right now? Hahaha..."
More than a dozen people ganged up on Li He. Even if he had the skill of an extraordinary warrior, he couldn't resist them all.
"Pfft!"
A punch to the back, a burning pain.
"Thud!"
A kick to the chest and a searing pain.
"Bang!"
A strike to the waist and an intense burning sensation.
"Crash, bang, boom!"
"Bang, bang, bang!"
Li He became a human punching bag, brutally beaten by Nangong Qi and the others, and in no time his face resembled a swollen pig's.
...
The Bronze Coffin, carrying the Dragon Corpse, hovered motionless in the air.
Gao Fei sat cross-legged, calming his mind and concentrating his Qi, his ears perked up, listening to the noise outside. "Nangong Qi?" Gao Fei's eyebrows suddenly shot up. "He's here too?" Gao Fei vividly remembered the name "Nangong Qi." When he was still a disciple of the Tianyang Sect, out on a mission, he killed the son of the Sunset Sect Leader, Hu Shuisheng. Hu Shuisheng went straight to Tianyang Sect to demand justice, and eventually even Nangong Qi was brought in to pressure Tianyang Sect, resulting in Gao Fei being expelled from the sect...
Since then, Gao Fei had registered "Nangong Qi" in his memory as an enemy, although they had never met face to face. He had added Nangong Qi to his list of foes.
What a coincidence!
To run into Nangong Qi here!
Since I've encountered him, I cannot let him get away easily!
Gao Fei frowned and pondered for a moment, then had an idea. He released his Mental Power, calling to the old man in the Bronze Coffin.
"What's the matter?" the old man in the Bronze Coffin asked.
"My enemy is outside. I want to cause him some trouble and need the elder's help," Gao Fei stated plainly.
"Oh? That's simple!" the old man in the Bronze Coffin said with a chuckle. "What's your enemy's name?"
"Nangong Qi," Gao Fei squeezed the name through his clenched teeth.
"Alright, just sit back and watch the show," the old man in the Bronze Coffin laughed.
...
Outside.
The struggle continued.
Lord Li He of the North was covered in wounds, his hair disheveled, his clothes torn, his face pale, and his breathing rapid. He looked utterly miserable.
Just when Li He felt like he could hold on no longer, something unexpected happened...
"Rumble, rumble, rumble!"
The Bronze Coffin that had been floating to one side suddenly began to shake, and with it, the Dragon Corpse swayed, emitting thunderous booms.
"Swoosh!"
The Bronze Coffin whizzed towards Nangong Qi and his group, pulling the Dragon Corpse along with a speed that was astoundingly fast and a momentum that was immense...
"Eh! What's happening?"
"What's going on?"
"Everyone, get out of the way!"
Nangong Qi and the others hastily dodged.
At last, Li He could catch his breath. He retreated while circulating his Qi to heal his wounds, and at the same time, he grabbed a handful of Healing Pills and stuffed them into his mouth. He swallowed them down like jelly beans, and after eating the elixirs, his complexion improved slightly, and the pain from his injuries became less acute.
"Swoosh!"
The Bronze Coffin, pulling the Dragon Corpse, came to a halt, stopping right in front of Nangong Qi, close enough for him to touch.
"Uh?" Nangong Qi was stunned, then his face broke into ecstatic joy. Heaven is really helping me! Heaven knows I want the Dragon Corpse and has delivered it right to me! Thank you, Heaven! I'm so grateful! Once I get back to Piaomiao Palace, I'll set up offerings to worship you! Nangong Qi steadied his excited heart and reached out to grab the Dragon Corpse.
"You dare!"
"The Dragon Corpse is mine! Don't touch it!"
"Nangong Qi! I'm warning you, if you dare touch the Dragon Corpse, I'll fight you to the death!"
Over a dozen experts flew in from the distance and launched an attack on Nangong Qi. It was really quite absurd – just a short while ago, they were allies, united against Lord Li He of the North. In barely any time at all, they had turned on each other, engaging in fierce combat.
From a distance, Li He watched the commotion with a slight upward curve of his mouth, a trace of a sinister smile flickering across his lips: "Fight! Fight hard! Best if all of you die!!"
