Chapter 787: Decapitation

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“Heaven Grudge Marquis? The ninth most powerful Demonic Armament, Prolonged Grievance Hook?” Fang Yuan sneered with the saber in his hand. “Monkey 1, where do you rank in the Demon Dao?”

“Junior, you’re too rude!” His attitude enraged the Heaven Grudge Marquis, who was highly respected in the Demon Sect and never treated with such contempt.

“While you may have become the owner of the Blood Imbibing Saber, have you cultivated the technique in its secret manual? The Blood Imbibing Saber only ranks last among the Ten Demonic Armaments, even below the Prolonged Grievance Hook. Moreover... the previous owner of the Blood Imbibing Saber caused trouble to the Pugilistic World. The Kong family’s head defeated him with the Righteousness Ruler and sealed the Blood Imbibing Saber. Even if it’s refined again and offered sacrifices, how much of its power can be recovered?” the Heaven Grudge Marquis said confidently.

But he was covertly using his Demon Arts to undermine Fang Yuan’s confidence.

He was too experienced to make the mistake of being overconfident in a battle. Right now, he was especially alert in front of Fang Yuan.

“You talk too much nonsense!”

Fang Yuan frowned and charged forward.

Zap zap!

Fang Yuan dragged the Blood Imbibing Saber on the ground, making a long saber furrow. The next moment, he was in front of the Heaven Grudge Marquis and easily drawing out the saber.

Swoosh!

A blood-colored astral saber over twenty meters long emerged and smashed down.

Ding!

The Heaven Grudge Marquis raised the hook in response.

A thump was heard. His feet dug deep into the ground, cracks spreading like a spiderweb. The green stones used to cover the ground in front of the Divine Armament Mountain Villa were crushed into pieces.

Despite the large quantity of sparks, the black hook steadily dealt with the attack from the Blood Imbibing Saber, without suffering any damage at all.

Buzz buzz!

And there was even a grudge spreading in the sound of the vibrating hook, as if a demon were corrupting the world.

This Demonic Armament that ranked ninth lived up to its name.

“Omnidirectional Bloodlust!”

Fang Yuan laughed aloud and slashed eight times at eight positions around the Heaven Grudge Marquis.

The Saber Qi appeared to have spirit, even traveling spontaneously to form an array. Blood-colored light crushed toward the Heaven Grudge Marquis at the center.

“A saber technique in the Great Sanguine Demon Technique?”

The Heaven Grudge Marquis shrieked, his hands turning dark, “Heaven Grudge Demon Technique!”

Finally, he stopped concealing his true capabilities.

The Heaven Grudge Demon Technique was the heaven-grade technique used with the Prolonged Grievance Hook. As he executed it, chilling gusts of wind howled furiously and thick layers of dark clouds shielded the sun.

“Heavenly... Phenomenon...” Nangong Wentian gazed at this and murmured out the name of the realm pursued by all martial artists.

Even first-grade grandmasters were still mortal humans.

But Heavenly Phenomenon was different!

When a martial artist advanced to this realm, he could trigger heavenly phenomena and execute incredible magical techniques. It was the progression from a mortal into a Sage!

“Haha... You’re a Heavenly Phenomenon martial artist, so what?”

Fang Yuan wielded the saber. His entire body was protected from all the chilling gusts and dark clouds by a thick layer of blood-colored light.

Of course, he had not cultivated the Great Sanguine Demon Technique.

But some of the saber techniques were very suitable for the Blood Imbibing Saber, and the effect of executing the techniques with the foundation of the Six Extremes Armament Commandeering Art was quite satisfactory.

Furthermore, he could still rely on his origin power as the last resort. Even if the previous owner of the Blood Imbibing Saber revived and battled against him, he would not be the one exhausted to death.

Of course... if we fight here, the long-range attacks by a Heavenly Phenomenon martial artist may hurt others!

Fang Yuan held the saber with both hands and slashed down violently. “Blood Cleansing!”

Zap!

The harsh blood-colored Saber Qi slashed, splitting the ground in front of the villa gates into two and pushing their battlefield into the lush mountain forest.

In the Divine Armament Mountain Villa, the three sisters and Nangong Wentian looked on nervously, but every expression was distinct.

In their eyes, there seemed to be a black cyclone wrestling with a blood-colored dragon in the forest outside the villa.

Even Xu Ruyu and Chang Kun were excited as they stared at the scene.

After all, they were martial artists with their own pursuit in the Martial Dao!

“The peak of the Martial Dao is indeed uniquely fascinating... Regardless of the outcome, this battle will shock the entire Pugilistic World...” Chang Kun returned his sword into the sheath and sighed. “Qing, I’m afraid that your brother will become famous all over the world!”

“Indeed...” Xu Ruyu nodded. Looking at Nangong Xiu beside him, he sighed again and frowned anxiously.

On one hand, he was worried that the Heaven Grudge Marquis would win and kill them all.

On the other hand, even if the name of the Divine Armament Mountain Villa spread far and wide after this battle, everyone would know that the Nangong family were demons. The martial artists of the Orthodox Dao would most likely try to kill them.

Nangong Xiu was an observant person. She noticed that there was something wrong with her husband’s expression and felt disappointed.

“Hmph... surnamed Xu, are you qualified to be a man?” Nangong Fu had witnessed their expressions. “My Eldest Brother-in-law has his family and fortune to worry about, but he didn’t complain at all, and you... Second Sister was blind when she chose to marry you!”

“Enough!” Nangong Wentian waved his hand and stopped her scolding, but his eyes were focused at the forest. “If Wuwang is defeated, our entire family will die together... Ruyu, you don’t need to think about escaping. How can you escape from the lightness skill of a Heavenly Phenomenon?”

Crack!

Purple lightning stuck the forest where they were fighting.

The black cyclone broke down, and a silhouette pounced out quickly. “Nangong Wuwang... Since you’re worried about your family, I’ll kill them all!”

The silhouette was the enraged Heaven Grudge Marquis with blood flowing from his mouth. He assailed Nangong Wentian and the others at an extremely fast speed.

It was an attack by a Heavenly Phenomenon, so how powerful would it be?

His aura alone made them unable to breathe and their limbs tremble, and they could not move at all.

Zap!

In a split second, the blood dragon chased after him.

Suddenly, the Heaven Grudge Marquis turned around like a swallow returning to its nest, wielding the Prolonged Grievance Hook with all his strength at Fang Yuan’s unprotected chest!

He was merely using a strategy to divert Fang Yuan’s attention before launching an attack.

The Heaven Grudge Marquis had deduced that Fang Yuan was afraid of hurting his family from the battlefield he chose. When he was disadvantaged in the battle, he attacked Fang Yuan’s family so that he could take Fang Yuan by surprise!

He had used only thirty percent of his strength when he feigned attacking Nangong Wentian, and all his strength was used only after he turned around halfway!

Fast! Fast! Fast!!

Everything happened unimaginably fast. His strategy was extremely delicate, utilizing the weakness in the opponent’s mind and creating the sudden changes. The Prolonged Grievance Hook was about to tear open Fang Yuan’s stomach.

Poof!

A few shrieks were heard in the Divine Armament Mountain Villa when the Prolonged Grievance Hook slashed across the youth’s body. However, the silhouette of Fang Yuan dispersed slowly, stunning the Heaven Grudge Marquis. “Illusion? The Demon Sect’s Puppet Manipulation Art? Dharma formulations of the Shadow Sect? It doesn’t seem to be any of them!”

How could such a mistake be tolerated in a battle between experts?

The next moment, a blood rainbow flew past, decapitating the Heaven Grudge Marquis.

The sprinkled blood was absorbed by the greedy Blood Imbibing Saber once again. The essence and blood of a Heavenly Phenomenon made the saber hum in excitement.

In the Divine Armament Mountain Villa, Nangong Wentian and the others were all shocked by this scene.

An armament-wielding Elder of the Demon Sect and Heavenly Phenomenon martial artist just died like that?

Nangong Wentian moved forward and looked at the headless corpse, murmuring, “He’s... dead?”

Fang Yuan picked up the Prolonged Grievance Hook and answered concisely, “Hmm. Dead!”

...

The black Prolonged Grievance Hook was less than a foot long, and a gentle flick could generate penetrating sounds that evoked feelings of resentment.

Typically, the shorter an armament was, the more perilous it would be to use it in a battle. The length of this hook was shorter than a foot, thus extremely perilous to wield.

Of course, frequent use of dangerous tricks was like walking a tightrope, able to fail at any time.

It was evident from how the Heaven Grudge Marquis had died from his dangerous tricks used against Fang Yuan.

The Prolonged Grievance Hook ranks ninth among all Demonic Armaments in the world. During ancient times, the Heaven Heretic Sect rampaged through the Pugilistic World. Their sect master had a beautiful concubine whom he loved so deeply that he lost his ambition to conquer the world. When the Heaven Heretic Sect encountered a fiasco afterward, the elders of the sect suspected that she was a spy from the Orthodox Dao and forced the sect master to kill her... Hopeless and desperate, the lady killed herself with her golden hook. The Sect Master of the Heaven Heretic Sect started to fight again in order to avenge his lover. He slaughtered all the nuns in the convent that trained the lady into a spy and used all the Heaven Heretic Sect’s fortune to refine her golden hook into a Demonic Armament... The Heaven Heretic Sect collapsed in the end, but the Demonic Armament has remained in the Pugilistic World. The name of the lady has long been forgotten, and now she’s known as ‘the Golden Hook Lady’...

Fang Yuan held the Prolonged Grievance Hook in his hand and faintly smiled. “The Prolonged Grievance Demon Technique in the Prolonged Grievance Hook should be the most potent Demon Arts of that Heaven Heretic Sect.

“I’ve taken a look at the Demon Arts. It’s quite good and suits the Prolonged Grievance Hook well. Take it!”

He gently passed the Demonic Armament into the hands of the middle-aged man.

Nangong Wentian had a mixture of emotions as he held an armament that martial artists in the entire Pugilistic World longed for.

He had spent twenty years putting in persistent and painstaking effort to revive the Blood Imbibing Saber.

But Nangong Wuwang threw a higher-ranking Demonic Armament to him like he was throwing a bunch of vegetables. He felt somewhat strange.

“You really don’t want the Prolonged Grievance Hook?”

Nangong Wentian had recovered his inner force and even made some improvement.

After all, his level of cultivation was no match for Fang Yuan’s origin power, so Fang Yuan casually gave him some replenishment.

He had accepted Nangong Wentian’s inner force previously only to use it as a key to complete the rune of the Demonic Armament.

“No. The Blood Imbibing Saber suits me better!”

Although the Blood Imbibing Saber only ranked tenth, the outcome of battles depended on the owner of the armament as well.

For example, the Heaven Grudge Marquis was killed by Fang Yuan despite using the ninth-ranked Demonic Armament.

“Furthermore... after we move to a new place, I intend to explore the Pugilistic World. You’ll need something to protect the villa!” Fang Yuan said frankly.

“Explore the Pugilistic World...”

With desire and anticipation in his eyes, Nangong Wentian stroked his beard.
