Chapter 1172 - 232: The Power Beyond Super Sects
Recalling the Mu Huo Team, Ye Lingyue felt an indescribable feeling. She always felt she had met them somewhere, but even using spiritual power couldn’t uncover any flaw.
The extraordinarily beautiful woman named Zi Yan, with every gesture, exudes a tremendous deterrent power. However, Ye Lingyue’s real concern was not her.
Zi Yan’s fire is formidable, but Ye Lingyue is still completely confident that the Cauldron Spirit will not lose to her.
On the contrary, the man who was with Zi Yan, who hardly made a move, gave Ye Lingyue an instinctive sense that he was very dangerous.
Regardless of the opponent’s background, they must win in this Underground Arena Competition to reclaim the Sky Wolf Stick and the Qiankun Purple Gold Bag.
Ye Lingyue thought for a moment, suddenly recalling something. She took out the fragments of Lady Dan’s Intermediate Elixir Puppet collected from the arena.
The Elixir Puppet was smashed into fragments by the Cauldron Spirit’s Indomitable Golden Body, rendering it unrecognizable.
"Cauldron Spirit, what materials do I need if I want to refine this Elixir Puppet again?"
Without complete assurance to defeat the Mu Huo Team, Ye Lingyue had to seek another path.
The Cauldron Spirit quickly calculated the materials needed to repair the Intermediate Elixir Puppet and began working on restoring a new Elixir Puppet.
During the days Ye Lingyue was absorbed in repairing the Intermediate Elixir Puppet, Chairman Jin invited two guests.
The female guest was exceptionally charming, her beauty resembling a flame.
The male guest was calm and indifferent; they were none other than Yue Mubai and Fire Spirit Ziyan.
"Miss Zi Yan, Contender Mu, please have a seat, both of you."
As soon as Jin Wannian saw the beautiful Zi Yan, he showed a lecherous expression.
This greatly displeased Fire Spirit Ziyan. If Mu hadn’t told her that Jin Wannian Commerce was a local power equal to Heroic Society in Ancient You Province, and not to offend them, she wouldn’t have bothered to meet this lecherous Chairman Jin.
"Chairman Jin, why did you invite us here today?" Yue Mubai concealed the disgust in his eyes.
"I invited you regarding the Underground Arena Competition. Truth be told, I have made a significant bet on it, involving a major Spirit Stone Vein belonging to the commerce. Initially, I bet on the Female and Male Killers to win, but who knew they were so disappointing, being killed by that lunatic Yuan Xing. Fortunately, I’ve also placed a partial bet on you along with another commerce’s chairman. As long as you win in the end and defeat the Wu Wu Team, I can still recover the loss."
Chairman Jin was quite cunning. He bet with two major commerce chairmen, but in fact, the chairman who bet on the Mu Huo Team was a henchman fostered by Chairman Jin for years.
He planned to use this Underground Arena Competition opportunity to crush another major commerce and Heroic Society, seizing the lucrative profits of the Underground Arena Competition.
The strength of the Mu Huo Team is evidently acknowledged.
Inviting the two was also to gain influence over them, aiming to replace the Female and Male Killers as his future money-making tools.
The intentions of Chairman Jin were transparent to the astute Yue Mubai.
"Chairman Jin, you seem to misunderstand. We are not trash like the Female and Male Killers who follow others’ orders. Farewell."
Yue Mubai finished speaking and turned to leave without hesitation.
"Do you think you can come and go as you please? Do you really think that Jin Wannian is easy to bully?" Jin Wannian sneered coldly.
With a few bangs, dozens of strong men suddenly emerged from what seemed like an empty room.
These men struck mercilessly, their moves were lethal, attacking Yue Mubai and Zi Yan.
Yue Mubai’s eyes flashed coldly. As he raised his hand, a konghou appeared.
With his left hand holding the konghou and his right hand plucking the strings, the spiritual power activated, causing the strings to vibrate, transforming into fierce gusts.
The sound of the konghou pierced through, creating a finger-thick blood hole on the throat of a man who attacked closely, blood gushing out in torrents.
Looking at Zi Yan again, her beautiful eyes flashed momentarily, a swarm of fiery red clouds enveloping her.
Once the fiery clouds touched human skin, they were consumed by the flames.
Both were quick and ruthless, and their cooperation was seamless. In an instant, Chairman Jin’s men were wiped out like crops.
"You audacious old lecher, watch me kill you." Zi Yan’s movement technique flared up, a fire cloud charging at Chairman Jin’s face.
"If you dare harm me, I am from the Outer Heaven Jin Family, and they will not spare you."
Chairman Jin didn’t anticipate Yue Mubai and Zi Yan’s daring recklessness, shouting out in panic.
Upon hearing the mention of the Jin Family, Yue Mubai called out.
"Zi Yan, stop."
Although furious, Zi Yan glared viciously at Chairman Jin and retracted the Fire Spirit.
"Are you from the Jin Family?"
Yue Mubai’s face changed slightly.
Yue Mubai had been on the Ancient Nine Provinces Continent for a while and understood some of its rules.
The Ancient Nine Provinces Continent has existed for far longer than the New Nine Provinces.
Not only do demons and demon beasts thrive here, but super major sects, like the Lonely Moon Sea on the Qing Province Continent, are as numerous as cattle.
Even more terrifying entities exist, beyond the super major sects, known as the Outer Heaven.
These Outer Heaven entities, or hidden noble families, possess numerous Divine Power Realm cultivators, and even Main God Level Great Powers.
On the vast lands beyond the Divine Realm Domain of the Ancient Nine Provinces, they are gods.
Offending a major Outer Heaven family would give them the power to overturn a super major sect.
Even the Outer Heaven families have levels of low, intermediate, and advanced. The Jin Family, as mentioned by Jin Wannian, is one of the advanced Outer Heaven families.
Yue Mubai knew, though he backed the Lonely Moon Sea and had Fire Spirit’s help, he couldn’t contend with an advanced Outer Heaven Jin Family.
"That’s correct, I am from the Jin Family. If you dare kill me, the entire Jin Family will not spare you."
Chairman Jin broke out in cold sweat, relieved that Yue Mubai didn’t make another move, and quickly presented a Token of the Jin Family member.
In truth, Chairman Jin didn’t completely reveal the truth; he wasn’t a member of the Jin Family’s main line but a minor branch disciple with ordinary talent, relegated to commerce.
Due to backing from the Jin Family, Chairman Jin dared to roam Ancient You Province as a tyrant, holding equal status with Heroic Society.
"For the sake of the Jin Family, I am willing to cooperate with you to defeat the Wu Wu Team, who are also my final opponents in this Underground Arena Competition." Yue Mubai contemplated, analyzing the pros and cons, realizing collaboration with Chairman Jin was beneficial. The two sides immediately decided, determined to secure victory in the Underground Arena Competition.
