Chapter 310: Bitter Battle

Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci might have reassured them that the institution wasn’t planning to upgrade themselves into a holy land at that moment, but no one was buying it. They could only see that the Tongyou Mysterious World was sucking in a huge amount of world origin. If everything kept up, what everyone feared would come to pass.

With things progressing up to that point, the Martial Extermination Realm of the other institutions were the only ones who were suspicious. Even Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci felt their hearts pounding in fright.

That was because the Tongyou Mysterious World had indeed sucked up a huge portion of world origin from the battlefield between the two worlds.

Even if it wasn’t brimming with energy, it should at least be close to filling up with energy! However, not a sign could be seen!

If Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci weren’t able to convince themselves, there wasn’t a need to talk about convincing others.

“Everyone, please do not panic.” In order to deal with the situation, Shang Ke rushed over from his original position. “All of you might think that our Tongyou Institution is stubborn and persistent when it comes to carrying out our plans, but we have never once placed the rest of the world in danger in order to obtain benefits. We are part of the Azure Origin World and we will never betray our fellow comrades. Otherwise, why would we choose to protect this barren land for twenty years straight?”

His words allowed the tense situation to diffuse to a great extent. After all, it was true that the Tongyou Institution had been a loyal protector of the Azure Origin World.

Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci lacked persuasiveness due to their experience and seniority. Among the elders who came to support the institution, most of them were from the older generation. Even Han Chongwei, the youngest of them all, was older than Liu Qinglan by eight years!

Under such circumstances, all of them had an air of superiority when they were talking to Liu Qinglan. Such psychological superiority disappeared when Shang Ke appeared. After all, he was also part of the same generation as those present. At the very least, they had to respect his position as one of the heads of the four great clans of the Tongyou City.

Naturally, there was another aspect behind it. Shang Ke’s appearance told them that the powers in the Tongyou City were of one mind. No matter what happened, they would side with the institution.

Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci also made it very clear with their actions. The moment Shang Ke appeared, they stood behind him to provide support. With Shang Ke speaking for them, even the Martial Extermination Realm experts had to think twice if they wanted to make things difficult for Liu Qinglan and Kang Ci.

Liu Zhiyuan, who had the weakest support and authority among the Martial Extermination Realm experts of the Tongyou City hesitated for quite some time before finally heading towards Shang Ke, Liu Qinglan, and Kang Ci. He eventually stood behind Shang Ke before whispering to Liu Qinglan, “Instructor Liu, did something happen?”

The situation regarding the formation of the Tongyou Mysterious World might have calmed down, but conflict was starting to brew among the various parties who had arrived. The other institutions had laid down their stances and intentions loud and clear.

An Baimei warned the Tongyou Institution about risking the foundations of the Azure Origin World, but he was still amicable about it. From his position, he was leaning towards protecting the Tongyou Institution.

Han Chongwei and Chang Huaiwu were trying to find the moral high ground to pressure the institution, and they exposed their extreme displeasure towards the Tongyou Institution\'s actions.

Yu Chengjin hadn’t said a word since the beginning, and he seemed to want to fade into the background. However, it went without saying that no one would dare to neglect his presence.

From the way things were looking, the alliance between the five institutions had a shit load of cracks in them. However, they could still forcibly maintain the alliance as there was no outright conflict among them.

Who would have thought that an accident would happen at that moment? A huge streak of red light tore through the skies and exploded in the skies above the city.

The huge explosion rocked the foundations of the city and the space above started to twist. A formless barrier that surrounded the city wavered slightly and became visible to those present.

“The Startling Rainbow Blade of the Yuwen Family! The Evil Remnants are making their move!” Chang Huaiwu recognized it immediately.

Liu Zhiyuan growled, “Hmph, we expected the Rose Party to make their move. This doesn’t matter.”

“No!” Chang Huaiwu turned around abruptly and stared at those from the institution. “I’m trying to say that it’s time for the spatial tunnel to be closed. The Tongyou Mysterious World absorbed enough energy, it’s time to stop.”

Liu Zhiyuan’s expression changed. “Mister Chang, what do you mean? According to our agreement…”

“According to our agreement, the Tongyou Institution shouldn’t have absorbed so much world origin from the battlefield between the two worlds. According to our agreement, we should have closed the spatial tunnel a long time ago. According to our agreement, we should have already obtained the things promised to us!” Chang Huaiwu snapped at Liu Zhiyuan.

“You…!” Liu Zhiyuan roared with rage. However, he was stopped by a gesture from Liu Qinglan.

She indicated for him to calm down before addressing Chang Huaiwu, “The Rose Party has always stood against our Tongyou Institution. Moreover, they’re the main enemies of all our institutions. There’s no need to force us to compromise because of the interference of the Rose Party. All of us expected as much. Moreover, the Yuwen Family’s foundations lie in the Bing Continent, not our You Continent!”

Grunting once, Chang Huaiwu didn’t say anything else. He turned away and refused to look at the members of the Tongyou Institution.

Liu Qinglan muttered after observing his reaction, “In that case, I hope everyone follows the plan. I shall deal with the person outside the city.”

After she spoke, she turned into a ray of light that shot out of the city. By the time the light faded, her figure could be seen outside the protection barrier.

Another red streak tore through the skies at that moment, but Liu Qinglan’s Eight Segmented Whip appeared to take it on. It slammed heavily into the incoming ray of red light.

It was the first time Shang Xia felt so helpless when fighting. His spear art might possess tyrannical might, but he was unable to break through the encirclement no matter how hard he tried. The five of them were like experienced hunters who were hell-bent on tiring their prey to death. They wanted to force him onto the road of despair.

Shang Xia estimated that if things were to keep up, he would eventually be killed by them.

“His spear art is really terrifying. It’s no wonder he managed to kill Chen Sanyang!” Someone couldn’t help but chuckle seeing as victory was already in their hands. Instead of belittling Shang Xia’s techniques, he truly admired Shang Xia’s execution of the Shang Clan Spear Art. As an elite disciple of the White Deer Paradise, he managed to display his magnanimity even though they obtained the upper hand.

Li Tianshou chuckled bitterly, “The Shang Clan’s Providence Spear really lives up to its reputation. Even the various holy lands recognized its abilities. The Shang Clan managed to rise up in the ranks due to this technique. They stood at the peak among the second-rate families before the collision of our worlds. When the calamity happened, they took the chance to become one of the four great clans of the You Continent… Oi, don’t beat him to death!”

Li Tianshou barely completed his sentence when someone else interrupted, “His spear art might be strong, but he can’t be compared to you, Senior Brother Li. Hahaha! Senior Brother Li has been suppressing him ever since the battle started!”

“Haha, Junior Brother Lu, you’re overexaggerating. After all, I only fight battles I can win… Oi! Fuck! He’s doing it again, be careful! One of his strange techniques can pierce through any defense… I can’t stop it either!”

Even though he was talking, Li Tianshou’s actions weren’t affected. He slashed horizontally to slice off a piece of skin from Shang Xia’s shoulders.

“Ah! … This fucking spear art is bullshit!” Junior Brother Lu yelled as his left ear was torn to shreds by a formless spear light.

After unleashing the Woundless Spear, a small nick appeared under Shang Xia’s cheeks. At the same time, his shoulder was stained red with blood.
