Chapter 851: Appreciation

Translator: _Tat_  Editor: Rundi

The Sun was hanging high in the sky, shedding down an infinite amount of light that brightened this space.

Since the beginning of the battle until now, at most 15 minutes had passed. But within this short period of time, the battle had already ended.

There were no suspense nor multiple rebuttals. It ended so simply and easily.

It was because of how easy and fast it was that everyone was so shocked. They all knew Ling Xian was strong, but nobody thought he would be as powerful as he proved himself to be.

The first four original leveled cultivators can be ignored since they couldn’t even handle one move from him. They were like ants that could be killed with the flick of his finger.

However, the vice ruler of the Court of Thunder was a true powerhouse and was nicknamed the Human Butcher. His capability was insane and despite so, Ling Xian had beaten him up to a point where he cannot counterattack. That is unbelievable!

Naturally, this impacted everyone greatly and their shock reached an extremely high point!

The elder was shocked to a point of no restoration. But more than that, he was humiliated and angry. As the vice ruler of the Court of Thunder, he was in a highly respected position. When has he ever been so violently attacked?

Yet he had no strength to resist.

The situation was very clear. He had been defeated and his loss was a clean one.

Against such a powerful opponent like Ling Xian, he had no power to defend!

“You should be acting civil now.”

The corner of Ling Xian’s lips curled up as he peered down onto the elder with a smile, “Don’t worry. You are still of use to me so I will not kill you just yet.”

“Ehem, ehem… I suggest you let me go. Or else when the ruler of the Court hears about this, he will come by personally and stop you.”

The elder was puking out a mouthful of blood and his face was white like a sheet of paper. His weak and exhausted look made it hard for everyone to associate him with the nickname, Human Butcher.

“You are already a prisoner of mine and you still dare to threaten me. It look like you have some big guts.”

Ling Xian had a soft smile on his lips as he stepped one foot on top of the elder’s chest.

Crack!

After a crisp noise, the elder’s face turned white and humiliation rushed to his face. At the advanced stage of the original level, nobody has ever dared to stomp on him with their foot.

That was naked humiliation!

As much as he was humiliated, he felt more agony. The pain of his bone breaking apart little by little twisted his face.

“It hurts doesn’t it?”

Ling Xian spoke softly and increased the pressure on his chest, “So, I suggest you stay put. Or else I will slaughter you.”

His tone was collected but the coldness in his statement made the elder’s iris constrict. He was so scared his entire body was shaking.

He knew that Ling Xian was not joking. Therefore, he quickly swallowed his anger and he didn’t dare to say anything else.

At this, Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. “Very well. Now, I will ask, and you will answer. If you say a single meaningless sentence, I will apply pressure.”

Hearing this, the elder’s body shook and he obediently nodded.

This is what the saying meant by “if the other has a knife, then I am seafood”. Since his life was in Ling Xian’s hand, of course he had to listen.

“First question, what is the cultivation level of the ruler of the Court of Thunder?” Ling Xian asked softly. This question concerns how troublesome his future may be so he had to find out.

“The peak of the original level.”

The elder said gently, there were some proudness and anticipation in his voice.

“Peak of the original level…”

Ling Xian frowned, feeling a little troubled, “Other than that person are there any other powerhouses from the Court of Thunder, or hidden talents?”

“He is the only one at the peak of the original level, there are no hidden talents,” the elder answered.

“Very well.”

Ling Xian sighed in relief. If there is merely one original leveled powerhouse at the peak, then he might be able to put up a fight. Then, he stared at the elder with a heated gaze and asked his final question.

“With your current spiritual energy, how many Heavenly Rumbling Thunders can you generate?”

Hearing this, the elder was a little startled. He suddenly remembered something and he couldn’t help but be afraid.

He knew that the person before him was using him to cultivate. This utterly surprised him as he didn’t expect Ling Xian to be so insane!

At first, he thought Ling Xian was just saying things to humiliate him. However, he doesn’t think that anymore. There was only one thought in his mind.

My god!

How can there be someone so insane in this world?

“Speak quickly. I have no time to waste.”

Ling Xian’s eyes turned cold, making the elder shudder. He answered quickly, “If I do it continuously, I can probably do it 30 times. After that, I would need some rest.”

“Thirty times? Not bad.”

Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction. The way he looked at the elder was even more heated now. He originally was worried about the speed he was cultivating the Indestructible Physique, but he no longer has to worry now.

Though the Heavenly Rumbling Thunders and the real God’s Trial had some major differences, it was very powerful and could easily increase the speed of the Indestructible Physique.

Looking at Ling Xian’s heated gaze, the elder’s body quivered and his heart filled with bitterness. He knew then, that he was about to be transformed into a machine. A machine that continuously shoots out electricity.

Remembering the upcoming days where he will soon be without daylight, the elder felt like he had fallen into an icy hell and his entire body ached. However, he knew that no matter how humiliated he was, he had to endure.

First, he needed to make sure he survives this. Second, he needed to wait for help.

Therefore, the elder said, “Don’t worry. I will do as you say and I won’t dare to think any bad thoughts.”

“Good, so you can read the situation.” Ling Xian nodded in satisfaction.

Hearing this, the elder displayed a warm smile, “As long as you don’t kill me… as long as you don’t kill me.”

“Don’t worry. You are still worth a little something to me.”

Ling Xian playfully smiled and said, “I know what you are thinking. You are waiting for the ruler of the Court to save you. But I suggest you stop thinking that way. Because the higher your expectation is, the stronger your disappointment.”

“You are joking with me. I have completely given up. I wouldn’t dare to think otherwise.” The elder’s heart turned even colder. His old face turned into a fake flower that was trying to please Ling Xian.

“Did you?”

Ling Xian mockingly laughed, feeling too lazy to discuss this any longer. To him, the elder is still somewhat valuable so he didn’t plan on killing him.

As for whether or not this person had truly given up or not, that didn’t matter. After all, he merely wanted to use him to fasten his cultivation.

Therefore, Ling Xian raised his hand and formed a small inhibition array. He placed it inside the elder’s body. If this man tries to run away, he just needs to mentally call out and this man would experience extreme agony.

After he realized Ling Xian had set an inhibition seal, the elder’s face turned white. Then, he revealed another smile and looked more humble.

“Very well.”

Ling Xian smiled in satisfaction and moved his gaze towards the Wen Clan Leader. “Wen Clan Leader, I have solved your problem. As for the troubles that will follow, I will solve them as well.”

After he spoke those words, the Wen Clan Leader didn’t say anything else. He merely bowed down deeply before Ling Xian.

At that, the Wen Clan below did the same. They bowed towards Ling Xian. Their eyes were full of respect and appreciation. Some people’s eyes even turned heated as if they were looking at a God above them.

“I, representing the hundreds of people in the Wen Clan, thank you.”
