Cheat Cultivator's Ascension - Chapter 468 - 468: A Little Help
“Don’t fuck with us!! Do you know how much time we spent in order to travel all the way here for this stupid competition!?”
“That’s right, that’s right, if we had stuck to cultivating back in our places, we could’ve progressed better!! Not to mention that, do you people really think that you all can just dispel the main issue here!?”
“Yeah!! Your Dao Seeking Mountains seemingly provoked beings that are too powerful for you all to fight, and we’re almost caught in the crossfire!!”
“Right!! Do you people want to pull us into your own fights as well!??”
As the announcement dawns on these people, outsiders and natives of the Sky Soul Star alike, they all start spouting all sorts of things directly aimed towards the headmistress of the Dao Seeking Mountains, all of them sounding like they are extremely offended and angered by her words, demanding repayment for making them feel like that.
Most of them, of course, decided to argue with the previous malicious intent of not one, but two celestial-level experts directed to the whole place. This, usually, is already more than enough reason to push their targets into giving them what they want.
‘With such numerous forces here, add to that those powerful newcomers, I doubt we would’nt be able to get some more benefits out of all of this!’
Such thoughts resounded on the mind of nearly everyone in the surroundings, their words completely contradicting their thoughts as despite their denial of all the benefits their juniors had acquired just from going through the trials alone, they, more than anyone else, are well aware of how much their younger generation had improved from these two trials unique to the Dao Seeking Mountains.
‘If possible, we want to have that for ourselves…’ they thought about it, especially the guardians who had already been to this place and witnessed the miraculous effects of these places, especially the Sky Compression Valley, all of them well aware of just how great their future generations will be should they gain access to such cultivation grounds like this.
Such thoughts are also in the minds of those Half-step Celestial Realm outsiders who had brought their juniors here merely for the sake of experience, their greed glowing in their eyes as they start thinking of ways not to take advantage of the situation, but rather how to take away such mystical cultivation grounds from the Dao Seeking Mountains.
‘What can they even do against us?’ the thought floats in their minds as they are well aware of just how advanced their forces are in comparison to this backwater planet, this thought just increasing their greed all the more as if an itch that they just couldn’t quite scratch.
Hearing all those complaint of these people, Tang Jianxue couldn’t help but shake her head as she felt extremely annoyed, even angered at these people who merely managed to freeload from the cultivation grounds of the Dao Seeking Mountains and yet still dares to demand more, after after all, the Dao Enlightenment Competition, while restricted to select people and forces, doesn’t have any other requirements to enter, not even a single spirit stone of entrance fee for them to enter.
Seeing her action, all those Half-step Celestial Realm cultivators already intend to make a move and make a lesson out of the headmistress of what they treat as an insignificant force, their strength already surging as pressure befitting of their cultivation realm starts pressing forward unhindered, had it not been for yet another completely powerful suppression keeping them at bay.
“There is a limit to the humiliation you can cause to yourselves, people of the Crimson Moon Kingdom…” as powerful pressure burst forth, pushing the suppression caused by all those Half-step Celestial Realm experts back, a lady with an authoritative, regal air around her said with a low tone in her bell-like voice, her unbothered manner as if she’s merely reprimanding a child something that made her presence all the more chilling, her stance screaming that if she wills it, she can deal with all of these people with total ease.
“Hmm? Why are you not speaking? Do you not agree with this old lady’s words?” seemingly enjoying herself, showing off her might like this, the mature lady then asked as she directed her gaze towards the people of her family’s kingdom, these people who would usually act so obnoxiously in front of her despite the difference in their status.
Now that she had an excuse to teach them a lesson though, she doesn’t really give a single thought about holding back anymore, her words stabbing these Half-step Celestial Realm deep in their guts as they struggle with all their might trying to open their mouth, yet the pressure just made it so that the most they can do is keep themselves from completely kneeling on the ground.
“I see, my words seems to be just a passing air to all of you that you would even disregard me like this… as a duchess of the kingdom, I am quite sad…” she said as she wept fake tears flowing down her jolly eyes before she clears her throat and directs her attention to the natives of this place as well.
“You people are too noisy as well… you all better shut yourselves up, unless of course, you want to see some ‘good’ show happening” she said without a single hint of her previous regal demeanor, instead, her tone sounds like she is a crass general with no time for etiquette at all, as if she had lived her entire life at the edge of the death in war.
“Now, where was I? Oh! Right, that….” As she continues her words, having silenced all the natives of the Eastern Continent as well, the regal lady then snaps her fingers as she decided press onto the Half-step Celestial Realm experts once more, completely forcing them to kneel on the ground with their heads just a few inches above it, in their foreheads and entire body, sweat spreads as she dispersed that overwhelming pressure.
“Every now and then, some arrogant people seems to forget what sort of person I, Dongfang Xiang am, I hope this serves as a gentle reminder for all of you” nodding in satisfaction as she took a look at those people’s terrified faces, the regal beauty then returns to her seat with a smile on her face, her words echoing continuously on these experts’ mind as they took a large gulp of air as their mind shows a flash of that terrifying image of the very same lady just playing around with her niece right now.
{Is this help to your satisfaction, Miss Tang?} Not forgetting the root cause as to why she decided to intervene like this, Dongfang Xiang asked via mental message, her words easily reaching the Headmistress of the Dao Seeking Mountains, who was prompted to look at her and nod in gratitude.
{I was quite surprised when my martial nephew suddenly said that someone powerful would help, even more so when I realized who it was.} The dignified, mature beauty replied with a courteous smile on her face as she replied, earning a wave of giggles from the lady who had just cast extreme terror into nearly everyone’s mind.
