Chapter 3769: Day of the Final Battle
For many people, this was a very difficult night to endure. Tomorrow was the day of Meng Yonghua’s birthday, and perhaps, it would decide the future prosperity and decline of the Majestic Empire.
It was not just the situation of that old Venerate Tier, but also the next generation of the Meng Clan. Would they be able to produce a prodigy? Otherwise, the Meng Clan would not be able to walk very far either. When the older generation of elites gradually withered, and there was no successor, the Meng Clan would naturally have no choice but to walk to the end of its line.
Yet Ling Han slept soundly. When he woke up the next day, he was very energized.
Meng Yonghua’s birthday banquet was scheduled for tonight, so he still had a lot of time to cultivate in the face of the rising sun. Then, he began to concoct alchemical pills.
In the battles of the last nine days, though his opponents were all weaklings, he had also completely familiarized himself with his own strength, and had already adapted to the new cultivation level.
When they were eating breakfast, Tang Yan’s expression was not very good.
“Yesterday, I sent someone to investigate Wang Yafei’s situation, and found out at least one of his trump cards,” he said solemnly. “He has a treasure called the Celestial Descent Silver Water Bottle. It was forged as a replica of a seven-star precious tool. Though its might cannot be compared to the original item, it is said that it can reach the might of Pseudo Cauldron Forging Tier.”
“Once you’re locked onto, you’ll be drawn into the treasure bottle and directly refined into a pool of blood!”
“Let me warn you, His Majesty… only cares about the victor. Thus, even if you’re taken into the treasure bottle and lost, His Majesty will still ignore you. In his eyes, there’s only the victor.”
“So, if you lose, it’s very likely that you’ll lose your life as well.”
“Furthermore, His Majesty hates cowards the most. If you admit defeat, you may be bestowed death by His Majesty.”
Ling Han couldn’t help but laugh in spite of himself, saying, “In your eyes, I’m definitely dead, right? There’s nothing to look forward to at all.”
Tang Yan’s expression was solemn, “Now that things have come to this, there is no turning back for you. Sigh, I do not expect you to win either, as long as you can save your life. It is my fault. I should not have mentioned this matter to you at all.”
“Don’t, that Wang Yafei or whatever, I can deal with him with a single punch, so why is there so much fuss!” Ling Han smiled, comforting Tang Yan.
Yet Tang Yan could not let it go at all. This Celestial Descent Silver Water Bottle was only a rare treasure that he had found out about. Who knew how many more treasures Wang Yafei had on him?
The Wang Clan had already planned for a very, very long time for today. They were determined to get the final victory.
Soon, it was noon, then afternoon, and evening.
No matter how unwilling Tang Yan was, he had to bring Ling Han with him, and set out towards the Imperial Palace.
Not going?
That was a crime of deceiving the Emperor!
Oh, you have fought your way all the way here, yet dropped the ball at the most crucial moment. Wasn’t that a slap to His Majesty’s face?
After arriving at the Imperial Palace, Ling Han and Tang Yan separated. He had to make some preparations, change his clothes, and prepare to take the field for the final battle.
“Humph, humph!” Ling Han was just walking, when two cold laughs rang out from behind him.
He turned around to look. Oh, wasn’t this Ge Shuang?
“Ling Han, you’re dead meat today!” Ge Shuang’s face was filled with delight at Ling Han’s misfortune.
After returning to the Imperial Capital, he kept trying to make connections, hoping that he could enter into the Political Hostage Manor and give Ling Han a harsh beating. However, when others heard that it was the Political Hostage Manor, they all shook their heads in refusal.
Although it was a prison, it was imprisoning envoys from various nations. Moreover, it was under the jurisdiction of the Clan Mansion. The waters were very deep, so who would be willing to interfere?
Thus, he hated Ling Han to death, yet couldn’t do anything at all.
Right until now, when he discovered that Ling Han was actually a match for Wang Yafei, he was instantly amused.
He was dead. This time, Ling Han was definitely going to die.
He was afraid that Ling Han would be directly beaten to death by Wang Yafei, so he hurriedly ran over. He wanted to use this time to strike a blow on Ling Han’s pride. Otherwise, he would not have another chance in the future.
Ling Han merely smiled faintly, “When did you become a fortune-teller? Furthermore, with your standards, I guarantee that you will starve yourself to death.”
Ge Shuang couldn’t help but choke. This guy still had such a toxic tongue.
“Humph, you can only talk tough for a while now. After a while, you will become a corpse. Furthermore, hehe, who knows, you may not even be able to leave a whole corpse behind,” he
said, smiling.
“Don’t worry, you’ll definitely see me again.” Ling Han waved his hand, indicating for the person leading the way to continue walking.
Ge Shuang didn’t stop him. He had already said what he needed to say. Next, he only had to admire Ling Han’s death.
Ling Han stroked his chin as he walked. Was this Wang Yafei really so powerful? There was actually no one that had high hopes for him?
Additionally, the underground casino had also placed bets on the final battle between him and Wang Yafei. There were no stakes for Wang Yafei’s victory at all, but rather stakes for winning within ten seconds, winning within a minute, and so on, which showed just how pessimistic they were about him.
Ling Han had already told the large black dog to bet on his victory. This was a good opportunity to make money.
Looks like he had been too low-key.
He prepared himself in the resting room. Even if there were a great many walls separating them, he could still hear the noise outside. Clearly, this was a very lively time.
After a while, someone came over to call out that he could go up onto the stage to battle.
He walked out. There was no need for anyone to lead the way, because there was only one
path.
“…He is, Ling Han!” Someone was presently introducing him outside. The instant Ling Han stepped out, his name had also spread throughout the entire tournament grounds.
Ling Han swept his gaze around. He was presently in the area where the tournament was held. The tournament ground was surrounded by a high platform, which had formed a circle, layered on top of each other. And on his left side, there was a platform sticking out of the air, at least a few hundred meters off the ground. If one’s vision was slightly poorer, they would not be able to see the situation below if they were to sit on it.
The person seated on it was the current emperor of the Azure Dragon Majestic Empire, Meng Yonghua, who was also the main character of today’s birthday celebration.
“Now, let us welcome the other contestant, Wang Yafei from the Wang Clan!” the host called out again, slightly hysterical.
At this moment, the doors to the other passageway of the tournament ground opened, and a young man with a dark expression walked out.
The moment Wang Yafei appeared, he knelt towards the high platform, and shouted at the loudest volume, “This subject, Wang Yafei, will definitely obtain victory for Your Majesty!”
‘F*ck you! What do you mean by achieving victory for Your Majesty? You’re clearly doing this
for yourself!’
Ling Han mocked internally. This guy really knew how to curry favor. It was practically
sickening.
“Hahaha!” A loud laugh rang out from the high platform. Obviously, Meng Yonghua was in a
good mood.
“Then, let the tournament begin!” the host roared.
Wang Yafei immediately charged over from the other side. His speed was extremely fast. A second ago, he was at least a few thousand meters away, but an instant later, he had already appeared no more than thirty meters in front of Ling Han.
“Use your full strength. Otherwise, you won’t be able to show how powerful I am!” he said
haughtily.
This scene was captured and projected from the skies, magnified a few hundred times over. It was the same for the sound, which was seen and heard by everyone. Instantly, a great many
people screamed shrilly.
He was too domineering.
