Invincible

Chapter 417: Why Are You Here Only Now?!

The Asura’s Gate disciple, Deng Cong, was glaring at the band of Cosmos God Cult disciples with hatred burning in his eyes, his voice sounded like a snarl, “Kill me if you got the guts, you want me to lick your dog legs clean, I spit on you!” Spit and blood splattered on the several Cosmos God Cult disciples.

Caught off guard for a second, several Cosmos God Cult disciples were stained with blood spit, courtesy of Deng Cong.

The Cosmos God Cult disciple named Liu Guowei jumped to his feet in a fit if anger, “Your mother, you really think that I dare not take your life?! Let me tell you, even if I kill you right here in this Enigma Oblast, your Enigma Oblast’s Domain Leader won’t even have the guts to fart in front of us!” Liu Guowei’s hand moved, ready to kill the Asura’s Gate disciple named Deng Cong with a lethal strike.

But Liu Guowei’s action was stopped by another Cosmos God Cult disciple, “It’s too merciful just killing him like this, didn’t he fantasize about being a hero, saving a damsel in distress? We should crush the ‘bird eggs’ between his legs, so that he can never touch a woman in his life, then destroy his Qi Sea, isn’t that better?! Wishing he could die, but he can’t!”

“That’s true! On top of that, let’s strip that Yang Le’er naked in front of him, let him watch how us brothers milk Yang Le’er’s big breasts!” Another Cosmos God Cult disciple shouted as he pointed a finger at the green-clad girl standing at the side.

This suggestion brought a bout of lascivious laughter from the rest.

The girl had delicate features, bestowed with a pair of flirtatious fox-eyes, moist and clear, extremely charming. Especially the pair on her chest, big, perky, and upright, something the layer of clothes failed to hide.

This girl was Auspicious Scepter Restaurant owner’s daughter, Yang Le’er.

Crystal tears hung at the edges of Yang Le’er eyes, looking pitifully adorable even as she fumed with anger: “You dare!”

Liu Guowei whooped wickedly, “Whether we dare or not, let us show it to you with our actions!” His hand reached out toward Yang Le’er as he said those words, roughly pulling her toward himself, while his other hand reached up, wanting to tear off the girl’s clothing on the spot.

Not one person from the crowd stepped up to stop these Cosmos God Cult disciples,. They were widening their bright eyes as to not miss anything instead, waiting with anticipation for Liu Guowei’s action.

However, all of a sudden, Liu Guowei felt a sharp pain in his hands. When his head turned to look, a black-haired young man was standing behind him without him knowing. At this point, that young man’s hand bound both of his in an iron hold.

“Let go!” Liu Guowei was frightened and angered, shouting out loud.

Huang Xiaolong harrumphed coldly, with a slight shake of his hand, he threw the person to the air, channeling a small amount of internal force and sounds of breaking bones were heard.

Lui Guowei’s anguish scream rang as his whole body was flung away, shattering tables and chairs as he crashed to the floor.

“My hands!” Liu Guowei screamed.

The crowd quickly looked over in his direction, noticing that both of his hands were totally crushed as they hung limply at his sides, they couldn’t be lifted anymore.

The rest of the Cosmos God Cult disciples were dumbstruck, but quickly snapped to their senses.

“Hehe, here comes another busybody!” Cosmos God Cult disciple Hu Guang stared coldly at Huang Xiaolong accompanied by a sarcastic snicker, “Lil’ punk, do you know the consequences of injuring one of our Cosmos God Cult disciples?!”

Huang Xiaolong shrugged, unconcerned, “Oh, I’m curious what the consequences are.”

Hu Guang’s voice grew icy, “You will end up a hundred times worse than he is!” A finger pointed at the Deng Cong, “Furthermore, no one will be able to save you!”

Among the six Cosmos God Cult disciples, Liu Guowei was the weakest, merely a Xiantian Second Order, whereas Hu Guang was a Xiantian Seventh Order, therefore, Huang Xiaolong was no more than a puny speck of dust in his eyes.

“Is that so?” Huang Xiaolong was unperturbed.

Asura’s Gate disciple Deng Cong managed to get to his feet from the ground, speaking to Huang Xiaolong, “This brother, quickly run, flee as far as you can.”

“Run?” Hu Guang’s disdainful snort sounded, “Today, not one of you can escape!” The five Cosmos God Cult disciples immediately spread out, encircling Huang Xiaolong and Deng Cong in the middle.

Hu Guang strutted confidently toward Huang Xiaolong. His fingers bent into claws and lunged straight at Huang Xiaolong’s torso.

“Ultimate White Bone Claws!”

The flesh on his hands shrunk, drying up in the blink of an eye. They looked just like white bones that clawed out from a grave, emitting a stench of a rotten corpse. One could tell at one glance that this was an extremely vicious poison technique.

Watching Hu Guang, Huang Xiaolong simply raised his hand and pointed a finger at the space.

Huang Xiaolong’s demeanor triggered a savage spark in Hu Guang; this little bastard is seeking death! He cultivated this Ultimate White Bone Claws technique by absorbing death aura that accumulated and turned into a potent corpse poison. Even a Xiantian Eighth Order warrior would be wishing for death if they were corroded by this poison, but they would only be rotting to their death.

But, in the next moment, his face tightened, for an incredible power that made his soul shake washed over him from that finger, shattering his Ultimate White Bone Claw’s death aura as if it didn’t even exist, piercing straight into his palm.

An indescribable pain made Hu Guang scream his throat hoarse. His body staggered feebly back, but his fearful eyes never left Huang Xiaolong’s face, as a frigid cold energy invaded every single part of his body from his palms.

Hu Guang turned his palms toward himself and looked at the two bloody holes, which had a strange black mist dancing around them. One could even hear faint heart-chilling howls as the black mist weaved on the surface of his skin.

Everything that happened entered the other four Cosmos God Cult disciples’ eyes. They each looked less arrogant and a little pale, for Hu Guang’s strength was the strongest amongst them.

“You, who are you?!” Hu Guang demanded in anger staring at Huang Xiaolong, while running his battle qi, trying to expel the frigid qi out from his body. But he noticed that the frigid energy only grew more tyrannical.

Huang Xiaolong strolled toward Hu Guang, causing Hu Guang to retreat in a flustered manner.

“Kill him!”

Hearing Hu Guang’s order, the other four pounced on Huang Xiaolong, attacking all at once.

When the four people’s attacks were about to hit Huang Xiaolong, a glaring light shone from his body, repelling all four away. The four people felt as if they collided with a mountain. They were thrown backwards from the impact force and flew out of the restaurant through the windows in four different corners.

The spectating crowd retreated hastily in fright. Ignoring them, Huang Xiaolong continued toward Hu Guang.

Hu Guang’s larynx moved nervously, his eyes still on Huang Xiaolong the entire time. He tried to bolster his own courage by saying, “My father is a Cosmos God Cult Elder, and my Master is the Treasure Oblast’s Castellan, you dare…!”

Before Hu Guang could finish his grand sounding threat, Huang Xiaolong struck a palm out across the distance between them, striking accurately at Hu Guang’s Qi Sea, sending him flying backward.

Blood spewed uncontrollably out of Hu Guang’s mouth, dyeing the chairs and tables in close proximity red.

Asura’s Gate disciple Deng Cong and the spectators were aghast, aghast that Hu Guang’s father was a Cosmos God Cult Elder, aghast that the Treasure Oblast Castellan was his Master!

And this black-haired young man still dared to injure Hu Guang so heavily despite knowing all this!

Huang Xiaolong was still as impassive looking at Hu Guang. He didn’t intend for that palm strike to kill Hu Guang, merely destroying his Qi Sea. To cultivators, having their Qi Sea destroyed and ending as a useless garbage was way more painful than death.

It was deathly quiet when a burst of footsteps burst into the restaurant.

“It’s the Asura’s Gate Enforcement disciples!”

The crowd cried out, quickly giving way.

Huang Xiaolong’s face sank a little. These Asura’s Gate Enforcement disciples’ arrival was so timely, just earlier, one couldn’t even see their shadows, but now they arrived in droves.

By this time, about a hundred Asura’s Gate Enforcement disciples had rushed into the restaurant.

The leader of the Enforcement squad, Qi Wu, entered the restaurant and his face paled spotting Hu Guang in a pool of blood. In a few quick steps, he reached Hu Guang’s side, saying as he helped Hu Guang up, “Young Noble Hu, are you alright?!” Panic was obvious in Qi Wu’s expression, it was clear that both of them were acquaintances, moreover, this Qi Wu seemed to know Hu Guang’s identity.

Hu Guang stood up, and at Qi Wu’s question, his temper exploded; his palm struck and a raw five finger palm print colored Qi Wu’s cheek. Hu Guang’s roar reverberated in the entire restaurant, “His mother, what were you doing arriving only at this time!” That demeanor and tone were no different than ‘whipping’ his own subordinate.

Chapter 418: Breaching Entry Into the Castellan Manor

The Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader Qi Wu bent his waist at an even lower angle, cowardly and panic-stricken instead of raging with anger after suffering a slap from Hu Guang in public, “Young Noble Hu’s teachings are right! This small one deserve to die!”

Huang Xiaolong watched everything with cold eyes.

An Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader actually referred to himself as ‘small one’ before a Cosmos God Cult disciple! He not only wasn’t angry being slapped in front of a crowd, he was still trying to curry favor while looking scared!

As the Asura’s Gate Sovereign, watching this happening right in front of him, flames of wrath burned stronger in Huang Xiaolong’s heart with each passing second.

At this point in time, Hu Guang pointed a finger at Huang Xiaolong while yelling at that Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader Qi Wu, “Capture that little imp, keep his life!” Huang Xiaolong destroyed his Qi Sea, he absolutely would not let Huang Xiaolong die so easily!

Qi Wu accepted Hu Guang’s command in a servile manner before turning to look at Huang Xiaolong coldly, “Little punk, how dare you act so boldly as to harm people in this Enigma City, disregarding the Enigma City’s regulations. All Asura’s Gate disciples listen up, capture this punk and throw him into the dungeon!”

The surrounding hundred over Asura’s Gate disciples acknowledged loudly, but just when they were about to move, a loud voice sounded.

“Wait!” Asura’s Gate disciple Deng Cong clamored furiously, “Qi Wu, as an Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader, how dare you conspire with a Cosmos God Cult disciple! Cosmos God Cult disciples come looking for trouble in Enigma City, hurting innocent people, but you closed your eyes, pretending not to see. Now, as Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader, you’re actually listening to orders from a Cosmos God Cult disciple? Qi Wu, do you know your crime?!”

Qi Wu’s derided gaze fell upon Deng Cong, “So it’s you, Deng Cong! Hmph, Cosmos God Cult disciples causing troubles in Enigma City? I see no such thing!”

Deng Cong could only fume in silent anger at Qi Wu’s answer.

Qi Wu added, “From what I see, you’re in cahoots with this punk. As an Asura’s Gate disciple, you knowingly break the law, you deserve a heavier punishment! People, arrest him as well, throw them into the dungeon together!”

Deng Cong was beside himself with anger: “Qi Wu! You’re trying to frame me!” There seemed to be a private grudge between Deng Cong and Qi Wu.

Qi Wu merely sneered. Without another word, he waved his hand and the large group of Asura’s Gate disciples responded by tightening their encirclement around Huang Xiaolong and Deng Cong.

Huang Xiaolong scanned his surroundings. He, the Sovereign of Asura’s Gate, was about to be captured by his own Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad for ‘interrogation’?!

An abrupt laughter sprung from Huang Xiaolong.

A laughter derived from an indescribable anger!

Before anyone could react, Huang Xiaolong’s palms struck out. A brilliant light soared to the sky as numerous palm imprints appeared in the air, each palm imprint striking an Asura’s Gate enforcement disciple, sending them flying several meters away.

Eyes widened with shock watching dozens of Asura’s Gate enforcement disciples’ flying out; to become an Asura’s Gate enforcement disciple, it was prerequisite to have at least Xiantian realm strength. More than a hundred Xiantian realm disciples were sent flying in just one move! The strength Huang Xiaolong exposed made the crowd’s hearts palpitate.

Neglecting the shocked expressions around him, Huang Xiaolong didn’t spare a second look at those Asura’s Gate enforcement disciples, fixing his attention on one person—the Law Enforcement Squad Leader, Qi Wu.

Qi Wu retrieved his bewildered eyes from the rest of the enforcement disciples. A foreboding unease snaked through his heart as he felt Huang Xiaolong’ gaze fix on his person, for he caught the flicker of killing intent in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes.

“I’m an Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader!” Qi Wu wobbled back even as he yelled out his identity, “This is Enigma City, you dare attack and injure Asura’s Gate disciples!”

Huang Xiaolong’s hand reached out and made a grasping gesture in the empty air, Qi Wu immediately felt the space around him squeeze and contract, and in the next second, his entire person flew toward Huang Xiaolong. Huang Xiaolong’s right hand was choking Qi Wu’s throat as he looked at him with frigid eyes, “You’re aware that this is Enigma City? You realize that you’re an Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader?!”

Qi Wu’s face turned beet-red, his mouth opened and closed, yet was unable to utter a single sound. Dread filled his eyes as he begged for mercy through them.

“As an Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader, not only did you not aid your sect brothers, you also listened to commands from a Cosmos God Cult disciple? Damn you lot!” Huang Xiaolong’s icy voice stabbed into Qi Wu’s soul. Huang Xiaolong exerted slight pressure in his fingers, directly crushing Qi Wu’s throat to his death.

Releasing his hold, Qi Wu’s lifeless body fell limply to the floor.

Everyone looked at Huang Xiaolong with disbelief. This young man killed the Asura’s Gate Law Enforcement Squad Leader like it was nothing!

Deng Cong looked no better staring at Huang Xiaolong, hesitation and puzzlement flickered across his face.

Then, Huang Xiaolong looked at Hu Guang.

All of Hu Guang’s previous arrogance vanished into thin air, extreme terror penetrated every cell in his body as the pressure of impending death suffocated him.

“Don’t worry, I’ll temporarily let you live.” Noticing the horror reflected in the other side’s pupils, Huang Xiaolong snorted.

Hu Guang stiffened.

Huang Xiaolong straightened his palm like a sword. With a wave, a screeching scream came from Hu Guang, both of his hands were hacked off by Huang Xiaolong and he passed out from the severe pain.

The crowd was deathly quiet as Hu Guang’s scream still echoed in their ears.

“You’re called Deng Cong?” Huang Xiaolong’s voice broke the heavy silence.

Deng Cong snapped back to his senses, quickly answering: “Yes.”

Huang Xiaolong nodded, “I’ve remembered it.” Leaving a baffled and confused Deng Cong, he left the restaurant, walking in the direction of Enigma City’s Castellan Manor.

Some time after Huang Xiaolong disappeared from view, an uproar erupted at the restaurant.

…

Very soon, Huang Xiaolong appeared in Enigma City Castellan Manor’s main hall, an unfathomable cold smile tilted up the corners of Huang Xiaolong’s mouth looking at the two imposing stone lion statues at the Castellan Manor entrance.

“What are you here for? Don’t you know that this is the Castellan’s manor?” Just as Huang Xiaolong was about to step into the manor grounds, two Asura’s Gate disciples that were standing guard at the entrance blocked his path, barking fiercely.

“I know.” Huang Xiaolong’s patience was fraying. Before more disciples could approach, an overwhelming power threw them off balance. Silhouettes tumbled in the air.

Huang Xiaolong walked into the Enigma City Castellan’s residence manor.

“Insolent! Who are you? Breaching entry into the Castellan’s Manor!” More guards noticed Huang Xiaolong’s presence; there was actually someone who dared to trespass into the Castellan Manor! The guards leaped up, each aiming an attack at Huang Xiaolong.

Huang Xiaolong raised his hand and pointed at the void. Almost instantly, all these manor guards were sent reeling away without any shred of resistance.

While this was taking place outside, the Enigma City’s Castellan, Wang Dingzhi, who was also an Asura’s Gate Domain Leader, was sitting in the main hall, contemplating his cultivation progress. His cultivation had been stuck without any progress in recent years, causing him to become irritated and anxious.

“Castellan, it’s bad!” Suddenly, the manor’s steward ran in looking flustered and terrified.

“Look at you, losing your calm, what is it?!” This steward running in screaming while he was troubled by the lack of progress in his cultivation upset Wang Dingzhi.

The steward was startled by Wang Dingzhi’s outburst, but he still soldiered on, reporting, “Castellan, a young man breached into the manor, and he has already injured more than a hundred manor guards!”

Wang Dingzhi’s temper flared sky high hearing this, “Truly seeking death! So brazen to run rampant in my manor!” Wang Dingzhi jumped to his feet, but when he was about to take the first step out to see who was the audacious person that dared to breach his Castellan Manor, his foot paused midair while his sight could barely shift away from the main hall entrance.

A stalwart figure stood at the door.

The steward looked over and blurted, “Castellan, it’s this little imp trespassing into the manor, injuring over a hundred guards!” The steward’s finger pointed confidently to the figure standing at the door.

When the steward just finished his ‘report’, Wang Dingzhi’s legs gave out. His quickly knelt on both knees in salute, “Asura’s Gate disciple Wang Dingzhi greets the Sovereign!” Wang Dingzhi couldn’t help the tremor in his voice.

Sovereign?! The word sounded like a thunderclap in the steward’s brain, for an instant, he couldn’t even tell where north or south was.

The ‘trespasser’ was none other than Huang Xiaolong. He entered the main hall looking at Wang Dingzhi, the temperature in Huang Xiaolong’s eyes dropped a few degrees.
