Chapter 1029: Life Did Not Have Roots; It Drifted about like Dus

t

The gorgeous face in everyone’s memories now had two eye-catching scars, one on each cheek.

The long scars made that fairy-like appearance looked grotesque. They were like centipedes twisting on Mo Chen’s fair skin.

Mo Chen put on the veil once more and looked at Wang Jue, who had fallen to the ground and had not recovered his wits yet. Then, she revealed a look of mockery and despisal.

“You can go now.” Wang Jue got up. Unwilling to look at Mo Chen even a moment longer, he pointed to the door and said, “I will take it as if today’s matter never happened.”

Mo Chen turned and headed outside the great hall step by step.

The great hall was silent. No one had expected such a result.

The top beauty of the Cloud Sea Domain actually ruined her own looks and turned into the ugliest woman of the Cloud Sea Domain.

“Wait!”

Just as Mo Chen was about to exit the great hall, Shi Feng, who kept staring at her figure, suddenly shouted, “Everyone, please help me stop this girl. I will split my earnings from the trip to the treasure mountain with everyone.

“Hehe! Even though her looks are ruined, her figure is still pretty good. After covering up her face and dimming the lights, it will not matter.”

“Haha! Brother Shi, you are really ruthless!”

“That’s right. After covering her face and dimming the light, we cannot see anything.”

The others originally did not care. However, when they heard Shi Feng say that he would split his share with the rest, they were tempted. All of them leaped up and launched themselves at Mo Chen.

Anger flashed on Mo Chen’s face. She pushed off the floor and quickly flew out.

The feet of the eight Young City Lords kept moving as they pursued Mo Chen relentlessly. Then, they surrounded her in the front yard before the great hall.

The warriors around had also given chase and joined the encirclement.

Blood-like multiflora rose spread grief.

The blood-colored pendant hanging around Mo Chen’s chest gave off a bright-red light. Red multiflora flower petals flew out in an endless stream. Soon, they covered the huge front yard, flying everywhere.

A wave of grief surged out, spreading in all directions. Bewilderment appeared in everyone’s eyes.

Grief bloomed in their hearts, extremely painful past matters coming to mind.

Mo Chen took this opportunity and pushed off the ground, flying away.

However, the City Lord’s Residence was heavily guarded, making it very difficult to fight one’s way out. She could not use the Multiflora Rose Pendant frequently. Soon, the eight Young City Lords blocked her again.

The strange commotion startled the hidden experts of the City Lord’s Residence. A few grandmaster-level Martial Sages appeared on the rooftops, coldly watching everything.

Mo Chen’s cultivation was not low; she was a Medial Grade Martial Sage. Furthermore, she possessed nine different flames in her body. In a one-on-one fight, she would not be weaker than these Young City Lords. In fact, she might be even stronger.

However, in this City Lord’s Residence, many experts surrounded her. Her strength was of little avail here.

After she put in so much effort, the gates seemed so close. However, she could not charge through them.

In mere moments, wounds covered Mo Chen’s body. Eye-catching blood stained her clothes.

Among the eight Young City Lords, Shi Feng’s attacks were the most vicious. Several times, he used killing moves and knocked Mo Chen one hundred meters back, causing her to vomit blood.

“Ugly bitch, given your appearance, it is your fortune that this Young Master wants you, yet you dare to disobey. You are really seeking a beating.”

Finding an opportunity, Shi Feng stepped forward and punched, sending Mo Chen, who was blocking with her arms crossed, flying again.

Mo Chen landed on the ground and rolled for a hundred meters. Her veil fell off, exposing her ugly face once more. Instantly, the warriors participating in the attack all revealed startled expressions and stepped back.

“How ugly!”

“That startled me. This is the top beauty of the Cloud Sea Domain?!”

“To think that I dreamed about her all the time! It turns out that she is so ugly.”

“Indeed. If I had known earlier, I would have attacked with more strength.”

The surrounding people cast looks of disgust at Mo Chen, who was on the ground. Curses rang out endlessly.

Mo Chen did not show any grief or misery. She only showed mockery and an expression that said that she had seen through the ugliness of the world.

She looked coldly at these people who once praised her beauty. Now, they flipped their attitudes because of the change in her appearance. They immediately spoke words of disgust, even expressing regret that they had not attacked heavily.

A malicious smile hung on Shi Feng’s lips. “Thank you, everyone, for helping. Hehe! I will teach this woman a lesson first.”

“Boom!”

Just at this moment, something strange happened. A dragon roar resounded, and the gates of the City Lord’s Residence suddenly shattered.

Rocks flew everywhere, and the corpses of the guards burst in the air. Blood rained down, and a figure dashed in at lightning speed.

The one that came was naturally Xiao Chen. He had rushed over from the Medicinal Cauldron Pavilion to the City Lord’s Residence at the fastest speed possible. The guards had deliberately made things difficult for him, delaying him for a while. So he lost his patience and knocked down the gates of the City Lord’s Residence with one punch.

As mere Martial Monarchs, how could the guards survive a punch that contained so much force?

Amid the blood, everyone watched as Xiao Chen, who was dressed in ordinary clothes of alternating white and blue, descended to the ground very quickly.

He landed firmly, and a strong wind swept out into the surroundings.

The strong howling wind contained the anger of the Azure Dragon King, Xiao Chen. It swept the cultivators with weaker cultivations into the sky and tossed them far away as they cried out in fear.

When Xiao Chen landed, the first thing he saw was the condition of Mo Chen, who was sprawled on the ground, and the two long, centipede-like scars on her face. With one glance, it was clear that they were not new.

The scars looked deeply embedded in the flesh, incorporated into her. They made the formerly beautiful face looked very ugly.

Aside from these, Mo Chen’s body was riddled with new injuries: saber wounds, sword wounds, and bruises of all sorts. That frail body had suffered a lot of damage.

Xiao Chen stepped forward and arrived before Mo Chen. He held her right hand and whispered, “Sorry, I should have come in with you.”

Mo Chen wanted to pull her hand away. However, she discovered that Xiao Chen’s hands were very strong; she could not pull away.

When she held Xiao Chen’s hands, it was not warmth that she felt but cold. Her hands were already icy, but Xiao Chen’s hands were colder.

This was a bone-chilling cold—frighteningly cold.

However, Mo Chen did not feel fear. She revealed a smile on her face as she said, “There is no need to apologize. With my looks, everyone under the heavens abandoned me, yet you still held my hands. How can I begrudge you?”

“Chi!”

Mo Chen’s smooth and fair fingers gave off some light. Then she poked Xiao Chen’s forehead, and a Spiritual Mark entered quickly between his eyebrows.

Xiao Chen was stunned. This was the Solar True Flame’s Spiritual Mark. She just gave the Solar True Flame to him completely.

“I cancel the agreement. You should leave.” Mo Chen smiled at Xiao Chen with a distressed expression.

“Haha! You want to leave?! Neither of you can leave!” Shi Feng looked at Xiao Chen and smiled coldly. “Brat, you came at the right time. I was preparing to go look for you after I dealt with this bitch. Good, you delivered yourself to me.

“There is a path to heaven, but you did not take it. Instead, you barged into the gated hell.”

Shi Feng roared and unleashed his aura. Heavenly Sage Laws danced wildly behind him.

He quickly formed hand seals, and a light formed rapidly between his palms, scintillating with boundless splendor. This was his best technique, Brilliant Ring of Heavenly Light.

He had used this move previously to kill several Superior Grade Martial Sages of the older generation and thought that it would be more than enough to deal with a Martial Monarch with a stronger body.

When Shi Feng saw Xiao Chen doing nothing, just continuing to hold Mo Chen’s hand quietly, he revealed a cruel smile and shouted, “Die!”

Just as Shi Feng spoke, his head suddenly exploded into countless ice shards flying everywhere.

“Sorry, you are still unable to kill me.”

Xiao Chen waved, and a small ice saber appeared between his fingers. The Great Perfection will of ice could kill even a grandmaster-level Martial Sage, what more a Superior Grade Martial Sage like Shi Feng?

Unfortunately, having been used once, the Great Perfection will of ice would not be as effective the second time.

“What’s going on?!”

When everyone saw Shi Feng’s head disappear suddenly, they were all stunned. They could not understand what happened. They had not even seen how it happened.

Only the few grandmaster-level Martial Sages on the roof, who had been about to leave, opened their eyes wide. They said in disbelief, “Great Perfection will of ice!”

When Xiao Chen saw the scars on Mo Chen’s face and her body covered in wounds, he became irate, which had not happened for a very long time.

He was not a bloodthirsty person. He always left a way out for others. As long as they proved to be of no danger to him, he would spare their lives.

However, today, Xiao Chen was extremely murderous. Everyone who humiliated Mo Chen had to die, anyone who attacked her had to die, anyone who participated had to die. Not one of the eight Young City Lords could remain!

“Kill him!”

Wang Jue reacted, his complexion suddenly paling. The son of a quasi-Emperor, the Young City Lord of Separated Cloud City, had died in the City Lord’s Residence of Shattered Cloud City.

If he did not handle such a grave matter like this properly, it might even trigger a war between the two sea regions. At that time, the consequences would be dire.

Wang Jue needed to kill Xiao Chen. His expression turned dark as he looked coldly at Xiao Chen. Then, he ordered all the elite soldiers of the City Lord’s Residence to attack.

Footsteps resounded as many figures charged at Xiao Chen in an endless wave. They were all guards of the City Lord’s Residence, the weakest of whom was a Martial Monarch. Within the Shattered Cloud Sea, they were all considered experts.

The area became densely packed with the Martial Monarchs that came from all directions, numbering at least five hundred. Xiao Chen started burning his Vital Qi and roared coldly, “Burning the Heavens!”

He executed the Dragon Claw Fist’s Burning the Heavens. Before his Vital Qi reached five thousand tons of force, he could already kill Superior Grade Martial Monarchs in one move. Now that his Vital Qi had reached twenty-five thousand tons of force, just how horrible would the Claw Burning the Heavens be after burning all that Vital Qi?

Azure smoke rushed to the sky. The clouds started burning, and the sky suddenly turned azure, blazing like it was on fire.

A colossal and very solid-looking dragon claw covered in dragon scales shot down from the heavens. “Pa!” Immediately, one-third of the Martial Monarchs were crushed into a meat paste.

“Bang! Bang! Bang!”

Three claws landed in rapid succession. Xiao Chen swept through the place, turning all the approaching Martial Monarchs into paste.
