Chapter 39
C39 – Then I Won’t be Polite Anymore
Meng Yin and Zhang Bo unleashed a barrage of wind blades, aiming for their great general. This very tactic had once decimated hundreds of thousands of Demonic Beasts on the battlefield.
The wind blades, known for their lethality, could slice through even the specially armored Demonic Beasts in an instant.
Yet, astonishingly, these seemingly invincible wind blades were now halted by an ice wall!
More astonishing still was the fact that these razor-sharp wind blades couldn’t even scratch the surface of the ice wall!
Fear crept into Meng Yin and Zhang Bo’s eyes as they stared at Wang Shan in disbelief.
They couldn’t fathom how a fifteen-year-old boy could instantly conjure such an impenetrable ice wall!
This boy was merely a One-star Cultivator, two whole realms below them!
“How can this be?” Meng Yin was utterly flabbergasted.
Little did they know, Wang Shan had mastered his Heaven Rank Water Condensing Arts to the level of Peak Great Perfection.
The ice wall and ice armor he forged were unbreakable.
In simpler terms, the Earth Rank Cultivation Method practiced by Meng Yin and Zhang Bo was an entire realm below Wang Shan’s Heaven Rank Cultivation Method!
Thus, even as a One-star Cultivator, Wang Shan could effortlessly triumph using his Heaven Rank skills.
Moreover, while Wang Shan appeared to be a One-star Cultivator, his true strength was comparable to the pinnacle of a Two-star.
“What’s the rush in trying to kill him?” Wang Shan inquired.
No sooner had he spoken than Meng Yin and Zhang Bo were encased in ice, rendered completely immobile.
Tang Qiao and Qin Meimei inhaled sharply, taken aback by Wang Shan’s formidable power, which had subdued two Three-star Cultivators in mere seconds.
“This guy is incredibly strong!” Qin Meimei’s view of Wang Shan had completely shifted; her previous skepticism had turned into full-fledged admiration.
After resting for half an hour, Tang Jianzhou, Tang Qiao’s father, was back on his feet.
His memory was also gradually returning. Upon seeing the frozen figures of Meng Yin and Zhang Bo, he erupted in anger, “How are these two traitors, who conspired with Demonic Beasts and caused the deaths of countless comrades, still alive?”
Reflecting on the events of ten years ago, Tang Jianzhou recalled leading a hundred thousand troops in a brutal campaign against the Demonic Beasts. During the battle, he suffered betrayal at the hands of Meng Yin and Zhang Bo, which resulted in severe injuries and a total loss of his memory.
“These two exploited my weakened state to slay my comrades and aid the escape of the Demonic Beast!”
There was nothing Tang Jianzhou could less abide than the murder of his fellow soldiers.
“Go and make your apologies to the comrades you’ve killed.”
With a tight clench of his right fist, Tang Jianzhou summoned a powerful gust that filled the bedroom. In an instant, Meng Yin and Zhang Bo were reduced to a mist of blood.
The two responsible for the deaths of countless comrades were erased from the world.
Wang Shan hadn’t anticipated that the might of the Heaven Rank Wind Condensing Arts would remain undiminished, even after Tang Jianzhou had just been on the brink of death. The fact that it could make the air inside Meng Yin and Zhang Bo’s bodies explode was a testament to the remarkable efficacy of the Yang Returning Pill.
With Meng Yin and Zhang Bo now gone, Tang Jianzhou turned to face Wang Shan.
“Thank you for helping me reclaim my life today and for shielding me from the wind blades of those scoundrels!”
Despite his rank as a great general, Tang Jianzhou set aside his pride and knelt on one knee, offering Wang Shan his boundless gratitude.
“How shall I repay you for saving me?” inquired Wang Shan, his tone even.
Tang Jianzhou appreciated Wang Shan’s directness. With a smile, he responded, “Just name your need. If it’s within my power, it’s yours for the taking!”
“Then I shall take you at your word…” Wang Shan replied, grinning.
