The Prodigies War-Chapter 2286
Chapter 2286
Outside the City.
As soon as Xi and the others appeared, they immediately drew the attention of the three Emperors, provoking them to strike without hesitation.
Two of the Emperors were from the White Tiger Clan—one at the fifth realm and the other at the seventh realm. The third was a sixth realm Emperor from the Black Tortoise Clan.
Previously, these three Emperors had been overseeing the operation, protecting a group of dao rune founders from the two clans while they worked to break through the Ultimate Restriction Array of Thousand Flame Imperial City.
However, no one expected that before the array could be breached, two women and a dog would suddenly charge out...
“Die!”
An Emperor old man from the White Tiger Clan bellowed, his murderous intent radiating so fiercely it could easily crush the life out of any ordinary cultivator.
With a fierce swing of his giant halberd, he aimed directly at Xi.
“Allow me!” Big Yellow buzzed with excitement. The dog leapt into action first, slashing its claw through the air. A surge of light erupted, transforming into an enormous net that seemed to engulf the world, blocking the Emperor’s attack.
Suddenly, the old man and his giant halberd were ensnared in the net, trapped like prey.
A cold shiver ran down his spine, and his soul nearly fled his body. Only then did he realize that the seemingly ordinary mutt was an unimaginably powerful character.
Before he could even attempt to fight back, it was already too late.
Swoosh!
The net tightened, and in the blink of an eye, Big Yellow knocked the old man unconscious. It collected the fallen figure with a sense of satisfaction, as if it had just caught a rare delicacy. A white tiger that had been cultivating for who knew how long...
Saliva dripped from its mouth at the thought of it.
“No!”
A horrified, anguished scream rang from the other side.
Xi’s figure blurred as she swiftly crushed the neck of another Emperor from the White Tiger Clan with her slender, fair hands.
“Don’t just throw it, put it away!” Big Yellow quickly reminded her. A valuable catch like that should never be wasted.
Xi nodded and tossed the corpse over to Big Yellow.
Boom!
Meanwhile, not far away, Xia Zhi was locked in battle with a sixth realm Emperor from the Black Tortoise Lineage. Her spear pierced through his armor with precision, and blood sprayed across the sky.
With a swift flick of her wrist, she split the Black Tortoise Emperor’s body in two, and before it even hit the ground, Big Yellow quickly collected it.
“This is a thousand-year-old tortoise. It’ll make an excellent tonic when stewed!” Big Yellow’s eyes gleamed with excitement.
The experts from the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans outside the city suddenly felt a wave of dizziness. The siege, which had been relentless just moments before, fell eerily quiet.
Many of them stood frozen in place, stunned into silence.
In the span of just a few blinks, three Emperors had been slaughtered as easily as chickens!
One was captured alive, and two were killed!
It was a devastating blow to their morale, catching the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans completely off guard.
The two women and a dog, whom they had ridiculed, had now revealed their true power and terror!
“They...”
In the city, Huang Cangtian, who had already ordered a rescue if Xi and the others fell in danger, couldn’t help but gasp aloud.
The old antiques from both the Divine Forge Imperial Clan and the Celestial Phoenix Clans were left stunned. Were they not too fierce?
Many of them felt a deep sense of shame and embarrassment. They had never anticipated that Xi and the others would be so powerful.
Boom!
With a thunderous roar like the collapse of heaven and earth, Xi’s graceful figure appeared like an illusion, intertwining with law powers. The ground trembled and cracked with each step she took.
From a distance, she appeared as though a divine being had descended upon earth, radiating boundless power.
“This is bad!”
The dao rune founders from the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans turned pale at the sight, instinctively preparing to flee. Unfortunately, before they could react, Xi raised her hand.
Endless dao light surged forth, roaring through the void, drowning the dao rune founders. Their souls shattered and scattered in an instant.
“Quick, suppress and kill them!”
In the distance, Emperor Ancestor Wanliu and Emperor Ancestor Qianyin bellowed at the same time, their faces livid.
Before their voices faded, they charged toward Xi, having realized that she was the greatest threat. If she wasn’t stopped, the siege was bound to fail.
“Leave those two old guys to me. You handle the rest.”
Xi’s voice was cold, and her stunning face was devoid of emotions. Even though two Emperor Ancestor-level figures were targeting her, she didn’t show a hint of panic.
“Kill!” Emperor Ancestor Wanliu roared, his voice shaking the heavens.
A blood-red sword cleaved the air, releasing endless laws and ominous visions, threatening to obliterate everything in its path.
At the same time, Emperor Ancestor Qianyin unleashed a purple palace lantern, which rained down billions of fiery rays, engulfing Xi.
The two had already resorted to their full powers!
Boom!
A war of unimaginable magnitude erupted, shaking heaven and earth. freēwēbnovel.com
What horrified everyone was that despite being under the attacks of two Emperor Ancestors, Xi did not falter or show any signs of being suppressed. Instead, with each of her strikes, she crushed their attacks one after another, causing both Emperor Ancestors to grow increasingly grave.
Even Huang Cangtian and the others felt their heart churn, unable to remain composed.
A woman who could withstand the combined onslaught of two Emperor Ancestors...how terrifying must her strength be?
If they knew what had happened within the True Dragon Lineage not long ago, perhaps they wouldn’t be so shocked.
After all, Lin Xun, Xi, and the others had fought their way into the Thousand Dragon Dao Palace. Had it not been for Ancestor Soul Slaying manipulating the origin law power of the world of the Dragon Palace, the True Dragon Lineage would have been unable to stop the invasion of Lin Xun and his group.
Now, outside Thousand Flame Imperial City, Xi found it no challenge to face off against two Emperor Ancestors.
“Die!” Big Yellow stretched out its four legs and leaped through the air, roaring, its fur glowing with infinite brilliance.
Bang!
Before a Black Tortoise Clan Emperor could even react, Big Yellow knocked him unconscious with a single paw and swiftly stored him away.
Their overwhelming, domineering presence caused a wave of gasps across the battlefield.
This time, the Black Tortoise and White Tiger Clans had dispatched a total of fifty Emperors, giving them an absolute numerical advantage.
Very quickly, a group of Emperors charged over to deal with Big Yellow together.
However, Big Yellow showed no fear. Instead, the dog was delighted. Grinning widely, its sharp fangs bared, and drool dripping from its mouth, it muttered. “This one can be braised, that one steamed, this one stir-fried, and that one deep-fried...” It didn’t even slow down, continuing its ‘hunting’ spree.
With its strength, it could easily fend off the pursuit of Emperor Ancestors. Why would it care about a siege from characters who were at most at the eighth realm Emperor Stage?
Bang!
Within moments, an Emperor from the White Tiger Clan, voluptuous and as beautiful as a young woman, was knocked out by Big Yellow. “You’ll make a perfect bone broth!”
Bang!
Before long, an especially fierce Black Tortoise Clan Emperor had his chest crushed...
“It’s just a dog! How can it be so terrifying?”
“Quick, everyone attack together!”
Angry shouts echoed across the battlefield as countless Emperors charged forward, attempting to overpower Big Yellow with sheer numbers.
Yet what sent chills down everyone’s spine was that Big Yellow never even gave them the chance to encircle it. Before the encirclement could tighten, it had already taken down one Emperor after another.
The brutal slaughter sent waves of despair ripping through the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans.
It was impossible to surround the dog.
Every time they tried to encircle it, Big Yellow would simply break through with unstoppable force, crushing its opponents one by one with ridiculous ease.
His rampage was even more shocking than Xi’s battle. After all, the ones falling were all powerful Emperors!
Perhaps the least conspicuous figure on the battlefield was Xia Zhi. Shrouded in darkness, she wielded her bone spear like an ethereal phantom, vanishing and reappearing like a flickering shadow.
Wherever she struck, her attacks were swift, precise, and lethal. Each enemy fell from a single blow before they could even react.
She killed her opponents with a single strike and vanished without the slightest hesitation!
Inside the city, Huang Cangtian, Lian Jiuxiao and the other experts from the Celestial Phoenix Clan and Divine Forge Imperial Clan wore complicated expressions.
Shock, amazement, disbelief, awe...all sorts of expressions.
None of them had expected Xi, Xia Zhi, and Big Yellow to unleash such carnage outside the city!
The once-dreaded armies of the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans that were powerful enough to strike fear into any clan were now in utter chaos.
Though they boasted eight hundred thousand troops, only the fifty or so Emperors posed a true threat to them.
Of course, that was already a force that would have been a nightmare for most.
Now, their two strongest leaders, Emperor Ancestor Wanliu and Emperor Ancestor Qianyin, were being held back by Xi alone, while Big Yellow and Xia Zhi effortlessly crushed the remaining Emperors. One after another, they fell like withered leaves...
It was no exaggeration to say that Xi and the others had completely thrown the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans into disarray, with casualties mounting by the moment.
Someone suggested excitedly, “Clan Leader, we should seize this chance to break out and counterattack!”
All the old antiques of the Celestial Phoenix Clan turned to Huang Cangtian, anticipation in their eyes.
Striking now would be their best opportunity to destroy the enemy forces completely!
Huang Cangtian was visibly tempted. After a brief pause, he nodded. “Indeed, we can’t let the three fellow daoists fight alone. It’s time to show the power of our Celestial Phoenix Clan!”
Unfortunately, just as he was about to give the order, his expression dramatically changed. His gaze snapped toward the distant horizon.
In the far distance, a terrifying surge of auras was rapidly approaching,
Could it be that...the true elites of the White Tiger and Black Tortoise Clans had finally arrived?
Huang Cangtian’s heart tensed up, and he immediately sent an urgent voice transmission, “Fellow Daoists, there has been an unexpected development—please return immediately!”
In truth, no warning was needed. The moment Huang Cangtian sensed the change, Xi, Big Yellow, and Xia Zhi had also noticed it.
“Let’s go.” Xi ordered, frowning. Without hesitation, she turned and left.
Big Yellow, caught up in its frenzy of ‘hunting,’ felt reluctant to leave. Upon seeing that Xia Zhi and Xi had already withdrawn, it had no choice but to follow.
Its unwilling expression was the final insult to their enemies, who were already ashamed and humiliated beyond words.
