War God Long Ao

"Challenge me?"

Huo Teng didn't seem to have processed it yet.

"What, are you scared?"

"Long Ao, are you fucking looking for trouble, or are you looking down on Senior Brother Miao Cheng? He already challenged you, and you accepted. Why are you challenging me now?"

Huo Teng spoke with such righteous indignation, but deep down, he didn't dare accept the challenge. Even a Void Spirit was no match for this guy, let alone him.

'Only an idiot like Miao Cheng would run over to challenge Long Ao.' Huo Teng had already made up his mind. If Miao Cheng lost, he would immediately turn tail and run without a second thought.

If Long Ao lost, he would capitalize on his weakness to finish him off—a perfect chance to eliminate the problem at its root.

And if they both ended up grievously injured, he could just reap the spoils, kill them both, and take the Treasures from Long Ao's body.

"Sigh, to think the dignified Young Sect Leader of the Flame Sect doesn't even dare to fight. I'm ashamed on behalf of your parents. If I were them, I'd have bought a couple pounds of tofu and gone home to smash my head against it long ago."

Humiliated like this, Huo Teng's expression instantly darkened, becoming incredibly grim.

"Long Ao, if you can defeat Senior Brother, then I'll accept your challenge."

Long Ao let out a contemptuous laugh. 'I've seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless. If I actually beat Miao Cheng, would Huo Teng still dare to fight?'

Huo Teng was merely an Earth Emperor Martial Artist, but Miao Cheng was a genuine Taoist Ancestor Martial Artist. The two weren't even in the same league.

Huo Teng's shamelessness was so great that even Miao Cheng felt disdain, to say nothing of Long Ao. He just didn't say anything out of consideration for Huo Teng's status.

"Huo Teng, you and Miao Cheng can come at me together."

Hearing Long Ao's words, both Huo Teng and Miao Cheng were stunned for a moment before exploding in fury.

Contempt. This was absolute contempt.

Even if the two of them won by joining forces, it wouldn't be anything glorious.

"Long Ao, you're courting death."

"What, are you scared?"

"Hahaha, Long Ao, I have to admit, you're truly arrogant. Fine, Huo Teng and I can challenge you together, but you must promise me one thing. If we win, you must hand over the two Treasures in your possession."

'Two Treasures?'

'Could he mean the God-Locking Pearl and the Godslaying Mirror?'

Even now, Long Ao still didn't know how word had gotten out that he possessed the God-Locking Pearl and the Godslaying Mirror.

Long Ao knew full well that with this news spreading, his future would be filled with endless trouble. After all, his two Treasures were simply too heaven-defying, their allure too great to resist.

He didn't dwell on the matter. Long Ao knew he had only one thing to do right now: take care of Miao Cheng and Huo Teng.

"Miao Cheng, you just want the God-Locking Pearl and the Godslaying Mirror. I can agree to your terms. If the two of you can defeat me together, I'll give you both Treasures. How about it?"

"It's a deal."

'A deal my ass!' Huo Teng cursed viciously in his heart. He didn't want to agree to this at all. His situation was different from Miao Cheng's; the difference of an entire Level between them was like the gap between Heaven and Earth.

But things had already reached this point. If he didn't agree, he would definitely arouse Miao Cheng's suspicion.

Cursing viciously in his heart again, Huo Teng walked over to Miao Cheng's side and said, "Long Ao, you're truly arrogant. Soon, I'll let you know the consequences of your arrogance."

"Enough talk."

Waving his hand to stop the furious Huo Teng, Miao Cheng said coldly, "Let's begin."

None of the three spoke. They stared at each other, each one unleashing a powerful Momentum. In just a short while, the three powerful streams of Momentum clashed violently.

Long Ao didn't use Heaven and Earth's Momentum, nor did he unleash Heaven and Earth Mourn Together. He didn't know when, but the surroundings had filled with onlookers, all of them watching the three of them, apparently ready for a good show.

Instantly, Long Ao, Huo Teng, and Miao Cheng all moved. All three wanted a quick battle, so they went all out from the very first move.

Huo Teng and Miao Cheng flanked him, attacking from both the left and right.

Long Ao chose the most direct method: his fists. Wielding his Divine Dragon Arm and Nether Tiger Arm, he continuously blocked their two-pronged assault.

Just like that, the three of them had already exchanged more than ten rounds of blows in the blink of an eye.

Long Ao knew that between Miao Cheng and Huo Teng, Huo Teng was the weak link. Therefore, he had to take out Huo Teng first, then he could take his time dealing with Miao Cheng.

He smashed his Nether Tiger Arm viciously toward Huo Teng. Wary, Huo Teng didn't dare to clash head-on with Long Ao. He appeared to be using great force, but in reality, he was trying to lure Long Ao toward Miao Cheng.

'Shameless.'

Cursing viciously in his heart, Long Ao moved both fists at once. One punch after another, a sky full of fist-shadows enveloped the two of them.

Soul-Sealing Seal, Nether Burning Seal, Heaven-Burying Seal—Long Ao unleashed all three seals in succession. Combined with his Divine Dragon Arm and Nether Tiger Arm, the power was far greater than the sum of its parts.

At that moment, Huo Teng was frustrated to the extreme. He had no idea what was going on; Long Ao was constantly attacking him, as if he were the man who had killed Long Ao's father.

Frustrated as he was, Huo Teng didn't dare to be the least bit careless, continuously blocking the fists smashing toward him. But Long Ao's fists were too powerful. Seizing a golden opportunity, Long Ao threw a vicious punch.

Unable to dodge in time, Huo Teng could only choose to meet it head-on, swinging his own right arm out in a vicious smash.

The two fists collided. With a loud CRACK, Huo Teng's miserable scream rang out as he was sent flying by Long Ao's punch.

What a joke. Long Ao's Divine Dragon Arm, fused with the full power of Long Qiang, carried the weight of ten thousand catties in that punch. If Huo Teng hadn't managed to disperse the force in time, that single punch would have been enough to take his life.

Without the slightest hesitation, Long Ao pressed his advantage. He smashed out again with his Divine Dragon Arm and Nether Tiger Arm, but at that moment, Miao Cheng arrived. Instead of continuing his pursuit of Huo Teng, Long Ao turned to engage Miao Cheng in battle.

Huo Teng, who had been sent flying by the punch, struggled back to his feet, his face etched with terror. One had to remember, he was a genuine Earth Emperor Martial Artist, yet he had nearly been killed by a single punch. If he hadn't experienced it himself, he would have never believed it, even if it killed him.

Long Ao's strength and condition had already exceeded his comprehension. Huo Teng didn't dare rejoin the fight because he didn't want to die, especially not by being smashed to death.

Seeing Huo Teng sent flying by a single punch from Long Ao, everyone was shocked, especially the people from Celestial State, who knew Long Ao better.

One punch after another, constantly changing, each blow relentlessly following the last. Long Ao didn't even use any other Martial Arts. He was fully confident that his Divine Dragon Arm and Nether Tiger Arm alone were enough to defeat his opponent.

At this moment, Miao Cheng was also feeling utterly miserable, forced back step by step.
