Chapter 1272 – Luo Tian, Save Me! (2in1)
Out of sixteen people, eight will advance. The first match was Hai Xiao versus Huangfu Ya!
“Huangfu Ya versus Hai Xiao, barrier stage number seventeen. Please step onto the stage for the match.”
As soon as Liu Feng’s voice faded, the corner of Hai Xiao’s mouth curved up. First, he walked to Huangfu Ya’s side and said with a smile, “Senior Sister Yaya, please show mercy. I can’t withstand your spatial temporal transfer ability.”
A frivolous sneer hung on his face after he said that.
Huangfu Ya glared at Hai Xiao, harrumphed coldly, and didn’t respond.
Immediately after, Huangfu Ya walked towards the stage.
Hai Xiao’s smile turned cold. Looking at Huangfu Ya’s beautiful figure, he muttered, “I tried to give you face, but you don’t seem to want it. Do you really think you’re still the Huangfu Ya of the past? Others might fear you, but I don’t. Today, I’ll start the slaughter with you.”
At this moment, Hai Xiao looked at Luo Tian in the distance.
Luo Tian also stared back at him.
Hai Xiao revealed a playful smile before mouthing, “I want you to watch her die inside there, hahaha…”
His figure started walking, and the aura of the Myriad Illusion realm was released.
He leaped up, drawing an arc in the sky, and entered the barrier one step ahead of Huangfu Ya.
His arms were crossed over his chest as he stood in the barrier, waiting for Huangfu Ya. The cold smile on his lips carried a trace of sinister killing intent.
Hai Xiao’s expression pissed off Huangfu Ya.
“I’ll make you pay in a bit!”
Huangfu Ya then stepped inside the barrier.
In an instant, Huangfu Ya’s body suddenly became immobile. The multiplied pressure of the barrier surged onto her mind like a tide. Her face instantly turned pale, and all the cultivation within her body was completely suppressed.
Especially her Spacetime bloodline!
“Suppression barrier!”
“It’s a suppression barrier again! I didn’t expect the number seventeen barrier stage to be a suppression barrier as well. This barrier seems to be prepared specifically for Huangfu Ya.”
“The Spacetime bloodline is too powerful. Huangfu Ya awakened the Spacetime bloodline at just seventeen years old, more than ten years earlier than her father. Once such a genius grows up, she will inevitably become an overlord of a region. The Hai family naturally won’t let her off that easily.”
“Isn’t the Hai family a bit too despicable?”
The Spacetime bloodline was too formidable.
It was one of the powers the Hai family feared.
Ever since the matter of Huangfu Ya awakening the Spacetime bloodline was exposed, the Hai family had been secretly preparing a plan to eliminate her.
This assessment was part of that plan.
They even assigned her to fight the Hai family’s strongest disciple, Hai Xiao.
Ren Xiaoyao immediately panicked.
Huangfu Ya was different from Luo Tian.
In Ren Xiaoyao’s heart, Huangfu Ya was Huangfu Jue’s only daughter. If she died on the stage, he would never forgive himself.
Ren Xiaoyao immediately rushed in front of Hai Fengtian and roared, “Hai Fengtian, what are you trying to do?! If you dare to harm a single hair on Yaya’s head, this old man will risk his life to drag you down with me!”
Yu Tianhai also rushed over, his face full of rage. “Hai Fengtian, don’t be too presumptuous! This is the Misty Cloud Academy, not your Hai family’s manor!”
Seeing their anger, the smile on Hai Fengtian’s face became even more smug. “What are you two getting angry about? If you have the ability, blast the barrier open and bring Huangfu Ya out.”
“Once the barrier is activated, it won’t open until the match ends.”
“Besides, this is a competition!”
“Could it be you two want to interfere with the match? Let me say the unpleasant words first: If either of you dares to interfere with the match, you will be expelled from the academy immediately!”
Hai Fengtian was exceptionally smug.
From the very beginning, he had planned to eliminate Huangfu Ya.
This could be considered removing a hidden future threat for the Hai family.
Moreover, it would also be a blow to Huangfu Jue.
More importantly, if Huangfu Ya died on the stage, Huangfu Jue wouldn’t dare to do anything to him even if his rage reached the heavens!
“I absolutely cannot tolerate another person with the Spacetime bloodline appearing and posing a threat to the Hai family,” Hai Fengtian thought to himself.
“Luo Tian must die, and Huangfu Ya must die. The potential energy hidden within these two is too immense. If they are allowed to grow, it will be impossible for the Hai family to dominate the Central Continent.”
Ren Xiaoyao couldn’t care less about all that and roared, “Interfere with the match?! I’m going to kill someone! Expel me if you want! I don’t want to stay in a Misty Cloud Academy like this anyway!”
After saying that, he burst forth with his Holy Spirit realm aura.
At this moment, explosions rang out around the barrier.
“Boom~!”
“Boom~!”
“Boom~!”
The barrier fluctuated ever so slightly.
Luo Tian’s brow twitched as he thought to himself, “The defense of this barrier is a level higher than the protective barrier of First City.”
After thinking that, Luo Tian didn’t care about anything else and shouted directly, “Level Two God Flame, blast it!”
He opened his palm, and a fireball blasted straight out.
It exploded onto the barrier, but instant kill wasn’t triggered. The barrier continued to exert crushing pressure on Huangfu Ya.
Hai Fengtian smiled ferociously before shouting, “Luo Tian, are you trying to rebel?!”
Inside the barrier, Hai Xiao was standing right in front of Luo Tian. He laughed coldly for a while before saying, “I want you to watch her die under my fist! Hahaha… Luo Tian, aren’t you amazing? Come in if you have the guts! Save her if you have the guts, hahaha…”
“Hahaha…”
“You aren’t able to save her, right?”
Rage burned inside Luo Tian.
He didn’t care if they targeted him. Hardship would only make him stronger. But targeting the people around him? That was unacceptable!
This was Luo Tian’s bottom line.
Even though Huangfu Ya had a bit of a princess temper and loved to cause trouble, her nature wasn’t bad. In the First City, she was the only one who stood up for him and constantly tried to protect him. Luo Tian didn’t say it out loud, but he knew who treated him well and who didn’t.
Except that he never expected the Hai family would actually set up two suppression barriers: one targeting him, and the other targeting Huangfu Ya.
“Fuck your granny…”
Liu Zhan summoned his lifebound divine bow and fired an arrow. The arrow bounced off the barrier, causing no damage whatsoever.
“Aggghhh~!”
“Aggghhh~!”
Liu Zhan almost went berserk. Facing such a powerfully reinforced barrier, and seeing Huangfu Ya’s face growing paler, rage erupted in his heart. Yet, he was helpless. This feeling of powerlessness was unbearable for him.
“Boss, save Senior Sister Yaya!” Liu Zhan said anxiously.
“Divine Explosion!”
“Boom~!”
Luo Tian’s power surged out, his body emanating a visible power like flames. He clenched his fists tightly, and thick, explosive sounds resonated around his body. Some martial artists were directly knocked back by the aura coming from him.
Extremely astonishing power!
Hai Fengtian’s face darkened, “What strong power. He has improved quite a bit in just a few days. If this boy isn’t eliminated, he will definitely be a future threat.”
Luo Tian erupted with superhuman strength.
Under the power of double attributes, Luo Tian took a step into the air before looking up at the sky. Streaks of lightning started covering his entire body. Crackling explosions exploded in the sky. “Lightning Beast Kiten, thirty million volts! Blast it for me!”
His right hand started moving, and a spear of lightning descended upon it. A vague lightning beast then zapped out.
Lightning wrapped around the entire barrier. Electricity shot into the sky, shining so brightly that people couldn’t open their eyes.
At that moment, heaven and earth seemed to have lost their color.
The entire Misty Cloud City trembled because of it.
“What powerful lightning force!”
“I can’t believe he was still hiding this kind of strength!”
“Too incredible!”
“This power is too perverted!”
Everyone’s minds trembled as they were all shaken by the power released by Lightning Beast Kiten.
But no matter how formidable Kiten’s power was, it was still restricted by Luo Tian’s cultivation. It couldn’t unleash its strongest power. Moreover, after one strike from Kiten, the barrier was still intact, showing no signs of cracking.
Hai Xiao almost jumped in fright beneath the barrier. Seeing that the barrier wasn’t damaged in the slightest, he immediately burst into laughter, “Hahaha… almost scared me to death! I actually thought you could blast this barrier open! Don’t you know who refined this barrier? It’s the number one barrier master in Misty Cloud City! A piece of trash like you at the Great Diffusion realm can forget about breaking it!”
“Luo Tian, just sit there and watch how Huangfu Ya slowly dies.”
“Hahaha… I want you to know the taste of watching your loved one die, to let you know how painful that feeling is! Hahaha…”
Hai Xiao didn’t dare to waste any more time to avoid any possible complications.
As long as he killed Huangfu Ya, the barrier would deactivate. If Luo Tian dared to touch him, then the Hai family experts hidden in the crowd would immediately capture him. He absolutely wouldn’t escape death then. This plan had been arranged long ago.
No matter what choice Luo Tian made, he couldn’t escape death.
An inescapable net had already been laid!
Huangfu Ya was so anxious she was about to cry. This feeling of being crushed was unbearable, so she couldn’t imagine how Luo Tian had endured it. Watching Hai Xiao approach step by step, she desperately tried to awaken her Spacetime bloodline.
But the bloodline power in her body seemed to be asleep.
No matter how she summoned it, it was useless.
Hai Fengtian didn’t stop Luo Tian anymore. Instead, he mocked, “Luo Tian, go ahead and attack it! If you have the ability, blast this barrier open! Hahaha…”
After saying that, Hai Fengtian’s voice deepened as he shouted, “Aside from Luo Tian, anyone who dares to attack the barrier will be killed on the spot! No matter who they are!”
“Hooh~!”
Several dark figures suddenly flew into the air.
Every single one of them had cultivation in the Holy Spirit realm.
They had been prepared from the very start.
“I don’t care anymore!”
Ren Xiaoyao was the first to move.
Yu Tianhai followed closely behind.
Before they could get close to the barrier, two Holy Spirit realm experts from the Hai family intercepted them and blocked their path.
Huangfu Ya looked at Luo Tian outside the barrier, her eyes pleading. She suddenly screamed, “Luo Tian, save me!”
“Save me…”
She broke down.
Huangfu Ya completely broke down.
She cried heart-wrenchingly.
She had never experienced anything like this before. She was just a seventeen-year-old child who hadn’t fully grown up yet.
Looking at her tear-streaked face, Luo Tian’s gaze tightened while his anger erupted. “Fucking…”
“Agggghhh~!” Luo Tian roared into the sky.
He made up his mind.
“Illusion Fairy, can you help me draw the power of the Ancient Tree once more?”
“I want to smash this thing to pieces!”
There was no other way.
Luo Tian racked his brains and couldn’t think of any other method. Only the power of the Ancient Tree could blast through the suppression barrier!
