Chapter 728: The feudal vassal admits his defeat

Translator: Sigma Editor: Hitesh

Da Lei, Zi Yao, and the other onlookers all wore a grimaced face. Their torch-like eyes gazed at Shi Yan without blinking. It was so quiet that they could even hear the sound of a needle falling on the ground. This silence was terrifying.

The battle between Shi Yan and Da Meng was still going on.

Furious auras and lights twirled around them. However, the two of them didn't recognize the astounded onlookers, as they were still fighting hard.

After Da Meng had been animalized, he had the power of beasts and a non-human appearance. Shi Yan, his opponent, was even more bizarre. His body was shriveled, and he had so many peculiar tentacles sprouting from his acupuncture points.

It seemed like Shi Yan didn't feel pain or other feelings. He just used the strongest attack to counter Da Meng.

Martial techniques that had been generated from different power Upanishads bloomed on their bodies. The two were covered in so many strange beams of light.

During their fight, magical light spots were still sparkling on Zi Yao, Du Feng, Bergh, and the others. They couldn't do anything but watch the flow of light spots rolling towards Shi Yan's tentacles. Those light spots then turned into his unceasing, violent energy, supplementing his battle power.

The more he battled, the fiercer Shi Yan became.

Da Meng had to increase his power continuously to fight Shi Yan. Bestial energy revolved furiously around his body, which could be compared to a level 10 beast at this moment. His animalized body was more like a rigid metal or stone.

Soon, Zi Yao pulled herself together first. She threw a glance over her shoulder and then shouted. "Move. Stay away from Shi Yan's Intent Domain."

As soon as she said that, Prince Du Feng and Bergh felt like they were granted amnesty. They immediately retreated backward with a panic-stricken visage, as they were afraid that the field from him could affect them badly.

Zi Yao also stepped backward far from the battle arena.

Da Lei darkened his face. His eyes sparkled with a terrifying light as he suddenly shouted. "Retreat, all of you. If you don't want to die, stay as far as possible from that kid!"

Many warriors on this life star moved away anxiously. They stood several thousand meters away from Shi Yan, then quietly urged their energy to seal their aura.

After Da Lei had uttered 'Soul Burial Field,' any warrior who had heard this name before acted as if they had seen ghosts. They now looked at Shi Yan with great fright, as an unknown cold current rose from the bottom of their hearts.

In their eyes, Shi Yan used to be neglected. But now, he had turned into a demon which could easily drag their lives into the infinite abyss.

Bang Bang Boom!

Shi Yan's body, which had been quenched through countless challenges, was now covered in blood after Da Meng, in his animalized form, had bombarded him furiously. Shi Yan got badly wounded.

Just like him, Da Meng wasn't as comfortable as he had thought he would be. Wounds appeared on his entire body, while spikes on his elbows, knees, and shoulders were broken. As blood stained all over his face, his eyes became gloomier.

Quite the contrary, this had stimulated his wild instinct. He roared ferociously, constantly boosting more energy.

The surrounding people quieted down. They stopped talking to each other, their faces solemn. As they looked at the two of them, their looks became bizarre.

Gradually, Da Meng felt exhausted. From time to time, magical light spots would detach from him. After each passing minute, he felt more tired, and he felt that his vitality had been draining unknowingly.

Shi Yan, his opponent, had the opposite status. The more he fought, the more intimidating he became. It seemed that he would never feel tired. His eyes were excited while his aura was getting sharper and more formidable.

The fight continued. But in the others' eyes, the situation now favored only one side, which was totally different from what they had expected.

Apparently, Shi Yan had gained the upper hand at this moment.

"Little Meng, come back here!" All of a sudden, Da Lei shouted.

Da Meng ignored his father. He continued to accumulate his energy, bombarding Shi Yan ferociously. It seemed he didn't want to stop.

So many light spots sparkled on his body then rolled into Shi Yan's tentacles. Da Meng didn't feel anything besides his exhausted spirit. However, depending on his tenacious body, he didn't want to stop. He didn't want to admit his defeat.

Da Lei's face became more solemn as he suddenly rose his arm.

A light curtain unfolded like a fishing net and covered Da Meng instantly. Without waiting for Da Meng to wiggle, his father dragged him out of the arena, far away from Shi Yan.

"Father!" Da Meng screamed, his face brave and stubborn. "Why did you stop me?"

Da Lei's face was as if he could hardly endure it anymore. He shook his head to his son and then took out a longan-sized verdant pellet. "Take it. You should refill your Essence Qi first, and then we'll talk."

"I haven't been defeated yet!" Da Meng didn't take the pellet. His eyes reddened as he wanted to storm to the arena again.

Da Lei harrumphed. The light curtain covering his son suddenly squeezed, restraining all the powers of Da Meng.

"Swallow it!" Da Lei shoved the pellet into his son's mouth. He flickered his thought to confine his son totally, even shutting his son up.

In the battle arena, Shi Yan lost his target. He frowned in surprise, looking at the others bewilderedly.

Having ceased engaging in a battle, his aura started to recede. His terrifying Intent Domain gradually faded out to the point the others couldn't sense it anymore.

"What's going on?" He looked at Da Lei from far away. "Does it count as an end?"

"My son got defeated." It was beyond people's expectations that Da Lei would proactively admit his son's defeat. He gave Shi Yan a deep look and then talked to Zi Yao. "Your Highness is always excellent. Even your follower is indeed talented. Today, I have widened my vision. Your Highness, I just want to ask what kind of relationship is between Shi Yan and that man?"

Shi Yan was surprised, as he didn't understand what the other was talking about.

However, before he had the time to say anything, Princess Zi Yao smiled naturally, waving her hand to signal him to shut up. She seemed to have something in her mind already. She laughed cheerily towards Da Lei. "Shi Yan's his descendant. I think I don't need to talk much about it, right? Uncle Da Lei, you've seen everything clearly enough, haven't you?"

Da Lei contemplated for a while and then nodded helplessly, his face bitter. "I got it. Why didn't you tell me earlier, Your Highness? If you had told me he was the disciple of that man, how would have I messed up like that?"

Shi Yan frowned as he didn't understand anything. He knew that Da Lei and Zi Yao were talking about something related to him, but he didn't know what to do.

Zi Yao waved her hand, using her eyes to signal him not to talk. He could understand her signal, which was why he didn't say anything. However, on listening to their conversation, he felt something strange, but he couldn't explain.

It seemed that this person they were referring to was someone Da Lei had been wary of a lot, and he had something related to Shi Yan. However, Shi Yan had never known what relationship he had that was enough to terrify Da Lei.

"Haha, I didn't want to reveal it, but Uncle Da Lei has forced me. I had no choice, and had to let you see it yourself." Princess Zi Yao beamed a faint smile, then continued calmly. "If you don't have anything else to discuss, we shall bid farewell here. Anyway, I hope Uncle Da Lei would keep it in a down low for me."

Da Lei put on a forced smile. "How could I dare to talk about it? If someone gets to know about it, it will bring big trouble to our Divine Nation, I'm afraid. Don't worry, I will consider that I haven't seen anything."

"Thank you, Uncle Da Lei," Zi Yao bent her body to greet and thank him.

"Your Highness," Da Lei was dazed for a while, then asked with hope, "Is he... staying in our Raging Flame Star Area? I've heard about his legend, but never seen him before. I wonder if I can be lucky enough to meet him once."

"He isn't in our Raging Flame Star Area. And, where he is, I'm sorry I can't tell. Shi Yan's his disciple. He comes here to practice. That's why I will grant him the quota to go to the Extreme Purgatory Field this time. I think, Uncle Da Lei won't have any opposing opinions now, right?" Princess Zi Yao beamed a vague smile.

"How could I dare? Even if I had more guts, I wouldn't dare have any objections." Da Lei was scared. He bent to greet Shi Yan, his face smiling and friendly. "Little buddy, I've offended you as I didn't know your identity. Please be merciful."

Pausing for a while, Da Lei continued, "Servants, present him a carriage of mineral ingredients for pellets from my treasure. It's my gift to ask for his pardon."

Right after he finished, the King God Realm warrior standing next to him disappeared. Shortly, he pushed over a silver war chariot which was full of colorful materials. Then, they put the entire war chariot into Princess Zi Yao's amethyst battleship.

"I've offended you, little buddy. Please don't blame me," Da Lei clasped his hands, his face honest and his tone sincere.

"Haha, thank you, Uncle Da Lei. I'm late already. I shouldn't annoy you any longer. Goodbye." Princess Zi Yao laughed happily, then turned to Shi Yan. "Get to the ship. We shall depart right now."

Shi Yan was filled with suspicions, but his face was still calm and natural. He smiled and thanked Da Lei, then followed Princess Zi Yao to board the purple battleship.

Zi Yao was a little bit hurried. Right when they had boarded, she ordered to depart. With a loud explosion, the amethyst battleship tore the atmosphere to rocket into the dark universe. The giant bronze steamship, which was waiting for them in outer space, started to move, floating behind the amethyst battleship.

Da Lei watched the amethyst battleship leaving. He didn't say anything, his eyes quite complicated.

After a while, he swung his hand to dissolve the restraint he had put on Da Meng, talking to the others. "You should forget everything you've seen today. No one is allowed to disclose even a small detail. Otherwise, your entire family will suffer!"

One hundred King God Realm warriors standing behind him nodded with icy cold faces.

"Father, what has happened to you? Why did you stop me?" Da Meng shouted right when his restraint was lifted, his face grimaced.

"If you had continued to fight, your vitality would have been taken away completely. At that time, no pellet could help you recover." Da Lei took a deep breath, his face dark and gloomy. "If what Princess Zi Yao said is true, we can't offend that kid. In our Raging Flame Star Area, no one could bear the cost of offending him."

Da Meng was extremely frightened, looking at him bewilderedly.

"It happened so many years ago, when an unknown warrior came to our Raging Flame Star Area with several severe wounds. Wherever he passed by, the vitality of the life stars, including their inhabitants, was taken away. Life stars became dead stars wherever he went by. Within only half a month after he had appeared in the Raging Flame Star Area, there were more than ten life stars that turned into dead stars. Not even a single life fluctuation could be detected."

Da Lei paused for a while and then beamed a forced smile. "The power Upanishad that man used is the Death Upanishad. The God Domain he used was called the Soul Burial Ground. Rumors said that the reason why he had to do so was due to his bad wounds, and he had to recover quickly. It wasn't half a month, and he had consumed more than ten life tars! Can you imagine that?"

Da Meng and the warriors standing next to him paled in fright. They couldn't even utter a word.
