Chapter 122 Xia Dayu
Before him stood a white-robed, baby-faced youth, whom Wan Lei had never met, but his voice was all too familiar. For the past few years, it was this voice that had been assigning him tasks.
Seeing the culprit who had brought them to this state, Wan Lei was filled with rage. He threw a punch at Xia Dayu.
However, Xia Dayu stood motionless, and Wan Lei's fist passed right through his body.
"Get out here! What's the point of a mere illusion? Show your true self and fight me!"
Wan Lei roared ferociously, swinging his fists and attacking the "illusion" before him.
Suddenly, his fist was grabbed.
With a gentle push from Xia Dayu, Wan Lei crashed heavily against the wall.
Gouzi was awakened by the noise. It groggily opened its eyes, saw the white-robed youth, and its eyes widened immediately.
"Xia boy, is that really you?"
Gouzi, who hadn't eaten properly for days, found strength from somewhere and leaped into Xia Dayu's arms, excitedly nuzzling him.
"It really is you! I thought I'd never see you guys again. This is great, you're here...
Quick, quick, save Little Lei and Little Yu, they're starving to death, and Little Yu has a fever... Mmm... Mmm..."
Before Gouzi could finish speaking, the white-robed youth pinched its mouth shut.
"I originally thought that you, as the protagonist, should have some abilities, but look at you now. The apocalypse has only been going on for two or three years, and you can't even survive. What a waste."
"Isn't my current state all your doing?"
"What else can you do besides blaming fate? You're too soft-hearted. You've brought this upon yourself, and almost killed your Little Yu. What else can you be but a waste?
If only you had cultivated your own trusted subordinates, built up some influence.
If only you had put in more effort, taken more power, and been more wary of Karen, you wouldn't have ended up in this miserable state.
Hunted down, betrayed by everyone, and finally dying of illness and starvation, how could you be such a waste?"
"Give me back my power!"
"As you wish."
Xia Dayu smiled slightly, and Wan Lei immediately felt all his cultivation power return. The runes on his Thor's Hammer were also relit, and the weakness and hunger instantly disappeared.
The same happened to Fang Xiaoyu.
After Fang Xiaoyu's power returned, her injuries and illness immediately improved. She opened her storage bag, took out a Nine Transformation Myriad Life Pill, took one herself, and handed one to Wan Lei.
"No need to trouble yourself."
With a wave of Xia Dayu's hand, all the injuries on Wan Lei and Fang Xiaoyu were completely healed.
"You, want to fight me?"
Xia Dayu laughed as he said this, he hadn't encountered such an arrogant guy in fifty thousand years.
"Yes."
Wan Lei's resentment hadn't diminished in the slightest.
"Alright, as you wish. Then, I'll give you another chance.
Defeat me, and I'll send you two back to the Lei Feng Realm, or, answer my question correctly, and I'll give you a token to the Golden Immortal Secret Realm, letting you go back."
"Then let's do it."
"Wan Lei, don't be ridiculous."
Gouzi immediately looked at Xia Dayu,
"Hey, Xia boy, what's your cultivation level, and what's his? How can they fight? Don't be too much of a bully."
Xia Dayu casually tossed Gouzi aside and looked at Wan Lei, his eyes filled with disdain.
"Let me introduce myself, the controller of the endless universe will of the Prime Plane, one of the Five Supreme Eternal Immortal Venerables, the only god of the Metal element, the supreme leader of the Five Elements Hall, the ruling organization of the Prime Plane, Xia Dayu."
Show off!
Although he didn't understand much, Wan Lei sensed a strong air of showing off from Xia Dayu's words.
"I won't bully you. You are at the peak of the Nascent Soul realm, capable of fighting a Great Vehicle cultivator. When fighting you, I will adjust my cultivation to the peak of the Core Formation realm, and, before I use each divine ability, I will tell you its name.
Just a reminder, I can kill a Primordial Soul cultivator when I'm at the Core Formation stage."
"I'm calling bullshit!"
Wan Lei cursed angrily, roared to the sky, and lightning erupted around him, instantly shattering everything within a radius of dozens of miles.
And Xia Dayu, remained motionless.
Fang Xiaoyu, with a gloomy face, walked towards Xia Dayu, holding twin swords.
"Xiaoyu... Fang Xiaoyu, this is my fight with him, stand aside.
Of course, if you want to play, I'll find someone to accompany you."
As soon as Xia Dayu finished speaking, a black-clad, stern-looking youth walked out.
The black-clad youth smiled wryly, looked at Xia Dayu and scolded with a laugh,
"Shameless, a dignified Immortal Venerable, bullying two little kids."
"Kids won't grow up without a beating."
Xia Dayu looked at Fang Xiaoyu,
"He's not as fond of showing off as I am, so let me introduce him to you.
Like me, he is also the controller of the endless universe will of the Prime Plane, one of the Five Supreme Eternal Immortal Venerables, the only god of the Earth element, the second leader of the Five Elements Hall, the ruling organization of the Prime Plane, Wan Yi.
Oh right, he also has another title, the number one wise man of the Prime Plane.
Alright, let him play with you, and teach you some things along the way."
"Why am I the second leader? What do you think makes you stronger than me?"
"Now's not the time to tear each other down, let's get started, I really want to see if this little friend called Wan Lei is... worthy of being the protagonist."
Wan Lei looked at Wan Yi with some concern, his intuition telling him that this guy would be even more difficult to deal with than Xia Dayu.
Sensing his gaze, Wan Yi smiled,
"Don't worry, I won't hurt your Xiaoyu, I'll just spar with her, but you have to be careful, Xia Dayu might really kill you."
Xia Dayu sneered, muttering something about "none of the Wans are good people," but his body had already begun to fluctuate with cultivation power.
This cultivation, seemed to appear out of thin air. Wan Lei then remembered that he hadn't sensed any spiritual energy fluctuations from Xia Dayu before.
"You are a cultivator of metal elemental energy, right?"
Wan Lei asked a pointless question.
"No, I am energy itself."
In Xia Dayu's hands, two semicircular scimitars appeared. Judging by the diameter alone, they were one meter long, but as for the length of the semicircular scimitars, the author's math is not good, and couldn't calculate it.
"Little Lei, be careful, those are the divine artifacts Yin Yang Blood Blades."
Xia Dayu waved the scimitars in his hands, and a sharp stream of metal elemental energy appeared, slashing towards Wan Lei.
Wan Lei swung his hammer, and a bolt of lightning appeared, colliding with the stream of metal elemental energy, creating a violent explosion in mid-air.
Before he could recover, Wan Lei saw that Xia Dayu had already rushed in front of him, the scimitars in his hands aimed straight for his neck.
"Swordsmanship, One Cut to Seal the Throat."
Xia Dayu's cold voice entered Wan Lei's ears.
Wan Lei didn't have time to think, and swung his hammer upwards, knocking the scimitar away. However, Xia Dayu's move wasn't just that, his other scimitar, had already stabbed straight at Wan Lei's lower abdomen.
Wan Lei immediately dodged to the side, however, he was still a little slow, and the scimitar slashed a bloody gash on his lower abdomen.
What kind of weapon is this, it's so sharp, that even my Thunder Body can't block it.
Wan Lei was horrified.
