The Supreme Lord Donghuang Chapter 214

“Useless fellow, did you hear what I said? Are you deaf?”

 Seeing as Zhou Donghuang had ignored his instructions and was continuing his stroll, Zhao Si's face changed into a nasty expression.

 “Awoo…”

 Perhaps it was Zhao Si's yelling that annoyed them, but the five wolves began to rush towards Zhao Si after letting out a united cry.

 Within a second, they had surrounded Zhao Si.

 “Damn it!”

 This scene made Zhao Si's expression change to one of extreme anxiety.

 Previously, he had been focusing on Zhou Donghuang and had not noticed that the wolves were surrounding him.

 If not, as someone of the ultimate Connate stage, he would have at least ensured that he did not allow himself to be trapped and surrounded like this.

 The five Black Wolf Kings stared steely at Zhao Si with bloodshot eyes, and this caused goosebumps to rise on his arms.

 Although he was an ultimate Connate adept, he had also only just reached this stage.

 If it were one Black Wolf King, he would be able to kill it easily.

 If it were two Black Wolf Kings, he would probably be able to take them on.

 If it were three Black Wolf Kings, it would be a gamble of life and death.

 If it were four Black Wolf Kings and he had ten lives, he would die nine times out of ten.

 Now, with five Black Wolf Kings, there was no way he could live!

 “Young man, if we die… You will definitely die as well! I urge you to do something!”

 Zhao Si observed the five Black Wolf Kings warily while glancing occasionally at the young man dressed in white. His tone had changed slightly, but it was still full of arrogance.

 Just as Zhao Si had said these words, the wolves let out more cries.

 “Awoo…”

 “Awoo…”

 The five Black Wolf Kings shot forward simultaneously like five bolts of lightning and rushed towards Zhao Si from all directions, their jaws wide open and their pearly whites flashing under the sunlight.

 “Zhao Si!”

 The young man dressed in grey's face changed, and his body curled forward like a cat, with his long sword out as well. With a pierce of the sword, he managed to hit one of the five Black Wolf Kings.

 This one Black Wolf King had no choice but to turn his attention to this sword instead of Zhao Si and he now glanced at Xie Yu instead.

 Whoo!

 The young lady in green followed her friend and took action as well. The long sword of hers was thrust forward, and with a green flash of light, she joined the battle with Xie Yu in an attempt to fend off the Black Wolf King the former had distracted.

 However, even with their combined attempts, in handling a Black Wolf King, it was rather tiring and stressful.

 On the other hand, for Zhao Si, it was even tougher as he was facing four Black Wolf Kings alone. He looked extremely weary as all he could do was bank on his speed and attempt to dodge the four wolves' attacks.

 The qi of the four Black Wolf Kings was not much, and it only had a range of one foot, but it was extremely solid.

 In comparison, Zhao Si's qi was three-feet long, but it was rather incomplete and was not very formidable.

 “Friend, please help us.”

 After identifying Zhao Si's plight, Xie Yu smiled bitterly at Zhou Donghuang while he fought alongside the young lady beside him against the Black Wolf King. “I know Zhao Si is not the most pleasant person to interact with. However, with the situation now, if you don't help us out, once Zhao Si dies, we will die as well!

 “I apologize on his behalf.”

 Be it Xie Yu or the girl beside him, both could easily tell that the young man dressed in white was displeased with Zhao Si as he had not responded to any of Zhao Si's calls all along.

 Zhao Si was disrespectful and arrogant. They were well aware of this and were still often annoyed with his manners after all this time. As a stranger, Zhou Donghuang would of course have been annoyed as well.

 Just now, Zhao Si's tone was extremely cocky and condescending, making it irritating to the ears. If they were in Zhou Donghuang's shoes, they would have been ticked off as well.

 That was correct.

 Towards Zhao Si, Zhou Donghuang did not have a good impression at all.

 However, he was still rather amicable towards the other two.

 Since the other two had spoken, Zhou Donghuang stopped glancing around casually and turned to see the skewed fight.

 Well, it would be more accurate to say he was glancing at the pitiful sight of an ultimate Connate adept in battle.

 The other two were still doing well as they were fighting together against a single Black Wolf King.

 Just as Zhou Donghuang was able to activate the silver inner Yuan within him to kill the group of Black Wolf Kings, Zhao Si yelled out.

 “Why did the two of you have to apologize to him!?”

 Zhao Si's call was full of rage. “If we die, he will die as well! If he doesn't take action, he'll be risking his own life!”

 “Well, I've changed my mind now. If he's to die too, he must die in front of us!”

 Just as he had spoken, Zhao Si's eyes were full of explosive rage, and he casually waved his sword around, forcing the Black Wolf Kings to momentarily take a step back. He put his foot down and decided to ignore the issue of having limited qi. He simply forcibly left the trap by the four Black Wolf Kings and rushed towards Zhou Donghuang like a flash of lightning.

 The four Black Wolf Kings rushed forward in pursuit.

 “Die, stupid fellow!”

 Zhao Si's eyes were now filled with a maniacal expression. It was as if he had lost all rational thought and was about to die alongside the person he wanted to kill!

 Psh!

 Zhao Si's sword flew straight through the air like a poisonous snake and headed in the direction of Zhou Donghuang. Specifically, it was aiming for Zhou Donghuang's throat.

 “Zhao Si, have you gone mad!?”

 “Stop it!”

 Zhao Si's friends stared at this scene, aghast, and frantically yelled at Zhao Si to stop his actions.

 Had Zhao Si really and truly gone mad?

 Of course not.

 Just now, in dodging the attacks of the Black Wolf Kings, he had used up a lot of his qi, and he was well aware of it. Even if the young man in white were to take action and be able to distract two out of the four Black Wolf Kings, he did not have the capability to kill the remaining two on his own and would probably lose his life even so.

 He thus decided to explode with all his remaining qi in a short period of time, rushing forward and hopefully causing the four Black Wolf Kings to change their targets and aim for Zhou Donghuang instead. He would then use this opportunity to break free and escape.

 Well, if he did so, he knew that he would have to abandon his two counterparts.

 “Is he trying to escape at such a crucial time, in the middle of the battle?”

 Zhou Donghuang stood where he was calmly and did not take any action. He had seen Zhao Si put away his sword during the previous moment and knew what his plan was.

 “Young man, although I want to kill you, you have allowed me an opportunity to escape. I'll leave your life in the hands of the Black Wolf Kings then! Hahaha… hahahaha…”

 In the instant where Zhao Si brushed past Zhou Donghuang, he had even laughed aloud as he had assumed that the four Black Wolf Kings would definitely kill Zhou Donghuang and allow him time to run away.

 At this moment, the other two friends suddenly realized that Zhao Si intended to leave them behind and save his own skin!

 Their faces changed in an instant.

 If Zhao Si escaped and the young man in white were to die, they were both doomed as well!

 Wait… What happened in the next instant made them freeze in shock again.

 Wait!

 What exactly were they seeing?

 Was… was this real?

 Were they dreaming?

 Under their shocked gazes, that young man in white, who had been sacrificed by Zhao Si and thrown to the wolves, had risen up in the sky like a deity at the most crucial moment, causing the four Black Wolf Kings to leap up and howl.

 Once the four Black Wolf Kings had leapt up and continued to chase Zhao Si, due to Zhao Si's depleting qi, they quickly closed the gap between them and Zhao Si.

 With such a progression, within the next few seconds, Zhao Si would be killed.

 “This is not good!”

 As the two had been completely enraptured by the stunt of the young man in white, they had completely forgotten about their own battle. As they regained focus, they realized the last Black Wolf King was hurtling towards them.

 Now, even if they wanted to defend against it, it was too late.

 Boom!

 Just as the two had prepared for the moment of death, an explosive silver palm appeared from the sky and directly smashed the Black Wolf King to the ground, grinding him flat.

 The Black Wolf King instantly died before their eyes, just as the first Black Wolf King had died.

 “A silver… Silver Essence adept!?”

 Just as the two were sighing in relief, their hearts were beating fast at the same time as they had never imagined that this young man dressed in white before them, who was about their age, could be a Silver Essence adept!

 Even the most talented disciple in their age range in the Sky Sword Sect was merely at the early Primal Core stage.

 “What happened!?”

 On the other hand, Zhao Si had assumed that he had successfully used the young man in white as bait and distracted the four Black Wolf Kings. However, he realized that the thunderous footsteps behind him were getting heavier and louder.

 He quickly turned his head and saw the young man dressed in white floating in the air.

 “A silver… Silver Essence adept!?”

 Zhao Si's face changed dramatically, and with this moment of distraction, he tripped and fell clumsily to the ground.

 Within that instant, the four Black Wolf Kings caught up with him and attacked.

 “Help me! Help me!”

 In his moment of desperation, Zhao Si glanced at the young man floating in the sky and opened his mouth to beg for assistance. To him, he knew that if this Silver Essence adept took action, he would be able to live.

 “Justice shall prevail here!” Zhou Donghuang merely glanced at Zhao Si lightly and said these words unhurriedly before going back down to the ground at his own speed.

 As for Zhao Si, he was torn to bits by the four Black Wolf Kings immediately.

 Once they had killed their prey, the four Black Wolf Kings turned to glance at Zhou Donghuang. They were intelligent and knew he would pose more of a threat. After hesitating slightly, they simultaneously bounded off towards the far forests.

 Everything went back to normal then.

 “Thank you good sir for saving us!”

 At the same time, the two remaining disciples of the Sky Sword Sect thanked Zhou Donghuang profusely at the same time. Their eyes shone with gratitude and admiration.

 “Mm.”

 Zhou Donghuang nodded to the two of them before leaving this part of city. Just now, he had already examined it all closely and he had not found any trace of the inheritance that the Dharma Peak adept had left behind.

 It was time for him to try another location.

 Seeing as Zhou Donghuang was leaving, the two Sky Sword Sect disciples regained their senses and glanced warily at the corpse of their friend, Zhao Si, on the ground with hatred in their eyes.

 “I can't believe this fellow Zhao Si was thinking of abandoning us and escaping on his own!”

 “Hmph! He deserved to die like this, the selfish bastard!”

 Towards Zhao Si's death, they did not feel any pity as Zhao Si had betrayed them and turned them against him.

 “However… Zhao Si's father is the fourth elder, after all. We better find an excuse for this as we cannot allow him to know that Zhao Si died while with us.”

 “Yes, that is true. We are not as strong as Zhao Si, but we managed to survive. With the fourth elder's favoritism and bias, he would not be pleased at all, and we will have to suffer if he finds out.”
