Before he finished talking, Di Jiu’s Heavenly Aqua Saber had already whirled up a space-ripping saber flare. This green-colored flare wrapped around Bai Shaoxiang. He couldn’t escape, no matter how much he wanted to.
A bloody mist burst into the air after the saber flare struck.
Mei Zhiyun had at least withstood a few of Di Jiu’s moves. However, Bai Shaoxiang was killed in a single move before he even managed to take out his dharma treasure.
“You have killed Bai Shaoxiang…” said An Xiaoqi in disbelief as she watched Bai Shaoxiang’s body disappear.
“Yes, I have!” Di Jiu chuckled.
An Xiaoqi’s scalp was beginning to turn numb. She didn’t believe that Di Jiu would let her off as she looked at him in fear. She had watched him kill Mei Zhiyun and Bai Shaoxiang so he would definitely silence her.
After a long while, An Xiaoqi finally said, “My father is the Protectorate Lord of the Peaceful Farmers’ Protectorate, An Lingzhou.” She didn’t explicitly ask for mercy, but she still implied it.
“Yes, I could guess that you are the daughter of the Peaceful Farmers’ Protectorate Lord since your surname is An too,” said Di Jiu as he nodded.
“Do I have to die too?” asked An Xiaoqi. She didn’t want to die. Although she wasn’t the most gifted person in the True Dominion, she was among the top few. A bright future would be waiting for her after she left the True Dominion. Very few people there could attain her level of cultivation in 200 years. Therefore, she couldn’t accept dying in the hands of Di Jiu, whom she had no enmity against.
“My son must have been killed by Di Jiu!” Bai Hong roared as he lost control of the killing intent within him.
Everybody was speechless. If Di Jiu had really killed Bai Shaoxiang too, he was being too bold.
“Protectorate Lord Bai, Shaoxiang was an outstanding young man. It is really unfortunate that he fell in the Evil Beast Valley. However, I think that there are others who are more powerful than Shaoxiang besides Di Jiu,” said the Skygold Protectorate Lord coldly.
Bai Hong opened his hands and a halberd with a fish-shaped ax blade appeared and floated about his head. His voice was filled with killing intent as he spoke. “Do you wish to pick a fight with me, Huan Changzhu?”
Huan Changzhu spread his hands and said, “If you think that it was Di Jiu, then so be it. I have no intention of fighting with you.”
Then, a man with a bronze complexion said coldly with a frown, “Let everything wait until the True Dominion Genius Tournament is over. It is a disgrace to the True Dominion that the True Dominion Genius Tournament has turned out this way.”
When he heard this, Bai Hong finally stopped his outburst, put his halberd away and sat down.
Even Mei Bashan didn’t say anything. The man who had spoken was the Protectorate Lord of the Bright Protectorate, the second major protectorate in the True Dominion, Bai Cangxing. His cultivation level was at the peak eighth-stage Domain Realm, so it was not any lower than Mei Bashan’s.
However, no matter how confident Bai Hong was, he wouldn’t dare pit himself against Bai Cangxing.
Bai Cangxing was really unhappy about the way things had turned out. Regardless of what had happened, Mei Bashan, who was the Protectorate Lord of the Number One Protectorate in the True Dominion, shouldn’t have nailed an irrelevant party onto the Array Formation Screen. Now, Bai Hong was stirring up trouble too. How could the tournament continue like this?
He hadn’t spoken earlier because he knew that if he had stepped in to stop Mei Bashan, they would surely have had a fight. However, he wasn’t scared of Mei Bashan.
Although Huan Changzhu and An Lingzhou could speak up, Bai Cangxing knew that he couldn’t. He had almost the same status as Mei Bashan after all. Mei Bashan would have been left with no room to back down if he had stepped in to reprimand him.
Now that Bai Hong wanted to stir things up as well, he naturally couldn’t allow things to go on this way.
…
Suddenly, Di Jiu stopped. He felt that he had reached the deepest part of the Evil Beast Valley, as his Spiritual Force had been constrained to merely a few dozen feet.
There was a huge Dharma Array before his Spiritual Force. Di Jiu recognized this Dharma Array. It was the Life Transformation Array.
This was a very high-level Dharma Array. Di Jiu suspected that if he got injured here and only relied on his Blood Essence, he would most likely be transformed into nothing by this Life Transformation Array.
It was no wonder that everybody who had fallen in the Evil Beast Valley had been transformed into nothing. It was all because a top-notch Life Transformation Array existed there.
Di Jiu didn’t know who had set up the Life Transformation Array. However, he was sure that he would only be committing suicide if he tried to investigate it. He definitely couldn’t do it given his current strength.
Although Di Jiu was curious, he wouldn’t give up his life for this. Therefore, he began to back off.
Suddenly, the participant’s card that was hanging at his waist lit up. Di Jiu knew that this was a sign that the time of this round was up. He had been thinking of leaving the Evil Beast Valley anyway.
“Do come in since you are already here!” Di Jiu heard a voice say as an enormous hand came grabbing at him.
All of a sudden, Di Jiu felt as if he had been squeezed between two huge rocks. He couldn’t move at all.
He struggled like crazy as he saw the enormous hand getting closer to him. Finally, he managed to get some space just before it reached him. When he kicked without hesitation, a big footprint flew out.
Bam! Di Jiu amassed all his might. Upon swallowing his saliva, everything that had constrained him disappeared.
When he broke free from this constraint, he used the Spiritual Force escape technique and dashed madly towards the exit of the Evil Beast Valley.
