Chapter 2181: Chapter 2007: Sweeping Away Zhou Tianyu’s Dignity (Third Update)

At the same time, Zhou Tianyu also glanced at Aben from the corner of his eye, his gaze filled with smugness.

He had already revealed his extraordinary true identity, and he even had hopes of becoming the next Cosmic Sky Clan Patriarch. He was outstanding in every aspect—most women probably wouldn’t be able to refuse someone like him.

Moreover, his earlier words had been deliberate, meant to belittle the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor and turn him into a stepping stone, so that he himself would stand out even more.

He believed that someone as dazzling as himself would definitely attract Aben’s attention.

Only, what a pity—Aben seemed as if she hadn’t heard anything at all. From beginning to end she remained calm and rippleless, still lowering her head to savor the various delicacies laid out on the banquet table. This left Zhou Tianyu a bit disappointed, yet precisely because of this, an even stronger desire for Aben surged within him.

If she were that easy to ensnare, she’d most likely be just a woman who worships vanity. That wouldn’t be fun at all.

What you can’t get is always the best—that was exactly the case.

As for obtaining Aben, Zhou Tianyu’s heart stirred all the more.

“Zhou Tianyu? Who is that?” At this moment, the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor looked at Zhou Tianyu and suddenly asked this question, then turned to Ye Chen: “Do you know who Zhou Tianyu is?”

Ye Chen shook his head; naturally, he didn’t know him either.

He didn’t know much about the Cosmic Sky Clan at all, let alone some Zhou Tianyu.

However, this scene fell into Zhou Tianyu’s eyes like a provocation. His handsome face darkened slightly, especially since the two of them were claiming in front of Aben that they didn’t know him. This was clearly a deliberate attempt to belittle him and show off in front of this fairy, to gain some sense of presence.

At this moment, Aben not far away seemed to have heard everything as well and couldn’t help but smile.

Though it was a silent smile, Zhou Tianyu clearly saw Aben’s delicate brows arch and her eyes fill with laughter. Such a sight instantly caused even more anger and jealousy to surge in his heart.

He definitely wouldn’t let these two off easily.

Suddenly, a thought flashed in his mind. The corner of his mouth lifted into a cold, scheming smile. “You say you don’t know this young master? Very good. Likewise, this young master very much wants to know—just who exactly are you two?”

“This young master finds your faces quite unfamiliar. Even among the younger generation of Heavenly Prides, this young master knows quite a few of those whose names are on the lists, and I’m basically familiar with their faces. Yet I’ve never seen your names on the Human List or Earthly List.”

Zhou Tianyu stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the two with arrogance. “This young master understands now. You two definitely don’t have invitations and somehow muddied the waters to sneak your way in.”

As soon as these words came out, many people secretly nodded. They felt Zhou Tianyu had a point—these two most likely didn’t have invitations and had snuck in by some unknown method.

Because not only Zhou Tianyu, but everyone at the banquet felt completely unfamiliar with these two.

“Heh, no invitation and you still dare to come in? Do you really take my Cosmic Sky Festival for a place where any random riffraff can stroll in as they please?” Zhou Tianyu let out a cold chuckle, his eyes flashing cold light. “The ones in charge of checking invitations actually allowed such a blunder, letting the two of you riffraff slip in. They must be severely punished later.”

“But the most urgent matter is to deal with the two of you first.”

“Men!”

Zhou Tianyu flicked his sleeve, and immediately a squad of Cosmic Sky Clan guards entered the banquet hall. All of them were experts of the Cosmic Sky Clan, their bodies exuding a terrifying air of killing intent—it was obvious they were all veterans of many battles.

“Hurry up and seize these two riffraff. Break their arms and legs, cripple their Cultivation, drive them out of the Cosmic Sky Palace, and throw them outside Cosmic Sky City.”

With Zhou Tianyu’s order, the Cosmic Sky Clan guards rushed forward, each one gripping a War Spear, surging with terrifying Combat Energy as they struck toward the two.

Seeing Zhou Tianyu attack them at the slightest disagreement, both Ye Chen and the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor’s faces sank, and Aben—who had not moved at all before—also darkened her expression.

“I’d like to see who among you dares to make a move!”

An invisible wave of air burst out from Ye Chen’s body, rolling forward and twisting the void. In a flash, it swept heavily across the ten Cosmic Sky Clan guards who had rushed in close.

Puff, puff, puff—

In the blink of an eye, the Cosmic Sky Clan guards came quickly but flew back even faster. One after another, they spat blood and were sent hurtling away, crashing to the ground.

In an instant—ten men defeated in a second!

Everyone was shocked. Although these Cosmic Sky Clan guards couldn’t be called extremely strong, they were definitely not ordinary. The fact that they could be entrusted with guarding the security of the Cosmic Sky Festival spoke for itself. Yet now they’d been instantly defeated in the blink of an eye. It was obvious that Ye Chen was anything but ordinary.

Zhou Tianyu’s pupils also shrank slightly; he realized this person was probably a fairly powerful figure. But his expression only turned even gloomier as he said coldly, “Good, good, very good. You dare to make a move at the Cosmic Sky Festival and truly don’t take my Cosmic Sky Clan into account. This young master wants to see just what you’re capable of.”

As he spoke, Zhou Tianyu took the initiative to attack. With an angry sweep of his sleeve, a surging Divine Power erupted. Naturally, he couldn’t unleash his full might within the Cosmic Sky Festival, but it was still far from ordinary and could easily sweep aside an ordinary Heavenly King expert.

Only, Ye Chen didn’t move. At his side, the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor let out a cold laugh. “Brat, and you dare to weigh us with just that? You’d better weigh yourself first. Scatter!”

The Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor likewise swept out his sleeve. An even more terrifying fluctuation burst forth, easily shattering Zhou Tianyu’s attack, yet it was perfectly controlled within a confined range and did not spread. Then, its remaining force rolled on, rumbling straight toward Zhou Tianyu.

Zhou Tianyu’s expression changed slightly; he clearly sensed how powerful the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor’s strike was. Not daring to be careless, he immediately raised his hands and began Sealing. Both hands traced out Dao’s Trace as one Dao Rune after another emerged, accompanied by a strong spatial fluctuation. He softly spat out, “Zhou!”

A Supreme spatial fluctuation erupted, instantly collapsing the void and colliding with the Corpse-devouring Worm Emperor’s attack.

On the scene, many people cried out in surprise.

“The Cosmic Seal—one of the Cosmic Sky Clan’s Supreme Divine Skills!”

“Zhou Tianyu was actually forced to use the Cosmic Seal!”

“Who is that opponent?”

The Cosmic Sky Clan was a race of Ancestor God descendants with extreme mastery over space, and their Divine Skills were even more inclined toward spatial arts. Among them, the Cosmic Seal was a particularly powerful Divine Skill.

No one had expected that to deal with this, Zhou Tianyu would actually use a Divine Skill like the Cosmic Seal.

Rumble—

The two waves of power collided, but there was no earth-shattering explosion. Instead, they both annihilated each other and then dispersed.

Such a scene only left everyone even more shocked.

The opponent had first shattered Zhou Tianyu’s initial attack, then even forced him to unleash the Cosmic Seal as a second strike, yet it had merely managed to just barely counter it, with both attacks mutually erased.
