Gate of God

"I will let down anyone in the world but him!"

Yan Xiu’s voice echoed throughout the Heaven Dao Pavilion.

The disciples all fell silent upon hearing those words. They naturally knew what that sentence meant.

But does such a friend truly exist?

You would rather let down the entire world than that one person alone.

Although they could not understand the type of friendship Yan Xiu spoke of, none of them spoke. They could see the determination in Yan Xiu’s eyes.

"Yan Xiu, you... why are you doing this?" Lin Mubai stared at Yan Xiu’s determined face as he bit his lips in apprehension. He was extremely anxious yet helpless.

"Your Majesty do not have to persuade me in any way. I have already made a decision. I will bet my life and future on this one in a million possibility. I will have to save him even if it costs me my life!" Yan Xiu spoke as his eyes sparkled even more brightly.

At the same time, he brought out a silver fan lined with bloody red lines. The network of red lines on the fan was extensive, making it look like a beautiful painting of nature.

The fan was trembling ever so lightly.

"Yan Xiu, are you sure about this?" The Fifth Elder cast his glance upon Yan Xiu’s Silver Blood Fan as he frowned. He then clenched his fists tightly.

"I have no regrets!" Yan Xiu shouted before he charged forward.

He used his actions to tell everyone that his decision was final.

He then swung his Silver Blood Fan.

Nearly hundred bloody-red lines rose from the fan, forming a picturesque scene of nature in the air. Each of this red line was connected to the crimson brilliance around Yan Xiu.

Boom!

The beautiful scene then crashed down onto the ground, enveloping the Fifth Elder and Qian Kun Eight Wastelands within its field.

The next moment, Yan Xiu arrived right in front of the Fifth Elder and plunged the Silver Blood Fan straight towards the Fifth Elder without hesitation.

"How brazen of you!" The Fifth Elder’s gaze became stone cold as he said. He naturally knew Yan Xiu’s identity and tank in the Great Xia Dynasty.

But that did not mean anything.

Prince Yan of the Great Xia Dynasty was not a title that would strike fear into an elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion. In fact, it would not even catch his attention.

Boom!

Countless thorn vines emerged from the ground. Each of them had the width of a human’s thigh. In an instant, the area within a five-foot radius around the Fifth Elder was completely covered in thorny vines.

The bloody-red line that was enveloping the Fifth Elder was started churning violently. The rivers and seas crashed as the mountains trembled, looking as if they would crumble anytime.

However, Yan Xiu’s gaze remained determined.

The crimson brilliance around him grew more intense, strengthening the threads connecting himself and the bloody-red lines.

He was also using the Silver Blood Fan in his hands to sever the thorn vines in his way, swiftly narrowing the distance between the Fifth Elder and himself to merely a foot long.

"The Asura Dao is truly an offensive one!" The Fifth Elder stared at Yan Xiu, who was using brute force to pave his way and commended. Following which, the character on his forehead glowed with a blinding brilliance as he said, "Enlightenment of Nature!"

Boom!

As the Fifth Elder’s voice rose, an emerald brilliance surged from his body. When the light made contact with the broken thorn vines, the vines wriggled as though they just received a breath of life. They regenerated swiftly and entangled Yan Xiu within their grasp.

The thorn vines pierced straight into Yan Xiu’s body, causing his face to turn paler by the second.

"Yan Xiu!" A voice shouted. Following which, a sapphire light emerged behind the Fifth Elder.

"Two of you at once? That’s exactly what I wanted!" The Fifth Elder was not surprised at Fang Zhengzhi’s actions. More thorn vines then appeared and charged straight towards Fang Zhengzhi.

However, just when the thorn vines were heading for Fang Zhengzhi...

A huge suction force appeared from beneath the Fifth Elder’s feet. The dormant sand vortex had begun moving once again, swirling violently.

The Fifth Elder then gave a serious and concerned expression.

The same goes for the Heaven Dao Pavilion disciples. They were dumbfounded and stared at the sight with their mouths agape.

"Qian Kun Eight Wastelands, to think that..."

"How could the Third Elder do this to the Fifth Elder?"

"What is going on? Are you telling me that he..."

All of them could not understand the situation. The Qian Kun Eight Wastelands was supposed to be controlled by the Third Elder. Why would it turn its back against the Fifth Elder now?

However, it was definitely not the time to be concerned about this. This was because, at the moment when the Fifth Elder lost his balance, Fang Zhengzhi had arrived behind him.

"Hm! You have really mastered the Qian Kun Eight Wastelands I see!" The Fifth Elder’s eyes turned emerald as he treated the battle more seriously. He had no idea how Fang Zhengzhi managed to control the Qian Kun Eight Wastelands.

However, he had witnessed it firsthand when Fang Zhengzhi was fighting against the Third Elder.

That was exactly why...

Fang Zhengzhi’s sneak attack on the Third Elder was a success.

How then, could the Fifth Elder not make any preparations for this? The moment he lost his balance, a terrifying shockwave spread from his body, distorting the air around him.

Boom! Fang Zhengzhi suffered the full blow of this powerful shockwave and was completely blown away.

On the other hand, Yan Xiu was held in place by the thorn vines and suffered even greater damage from the attack. His face turned paler and vomited a mouthful of blood.

Though he did not seem to care.

Just like what he said, even if he only had a one in a million chance, he was willing to bet on it. He would naturally have no regrets.

"Ah!" Yan Xiu gave a scream of despair. Following which, his body glowed in a crimson light and started ferociously lashing at the thorn vines constricting his movements.

Clang! Sounds of crystals breaking echoed in the area, causing cracks to appear on the emerald vines.

After a few moments, the vines finally shattered into countless emerald smithereens.

"Yan Xiu! You are hopeless!" The Fifth Elder stared at the fanatical Yan Xiu as his white robes fluttered menacingly.

He knew that there was no need for words at this point. It would not be possible for Yan Xiu would change his mind.

"I will let down the entire world but him!" Yan Xiu’s eyes glowed ferociously as a desolate presence rose from his feet. It was as though claws from the abyss were reaching out to him, blessing him with their destructive powers.

In just a few breathes, Yan Xiu’s skin became bright red. Blood oozed out from the pores on his skin and integrated themselves together with the crimson brilliance.

At the same time, an extremely painful expression appeared on his face. It was as though he was going through a tough torture session.

"Yan Xiu, you are concerned about your friend Fang Zhengzhi. How do you think he will feel if he knew that you died in the Heaven Dao Pavilion? Do you really want him to take revenge for you?" Fang Zhengzhi’s voice rose once again.

"Taking revenge on Heaven Dao Pavilion, for me?" Yan Xiu’s body shuddered as blood stopped oozing out from his body. He seemed to be hesitating.

"That’s right, why are you not willing to wait? The Emperor had made a good point. Fang Zhengzhi was still in the Northern Mountain Village half a month ago. How could he have rushed here in time? For all you know, he could already be at the foot of this mountain!" Fang Zhengzhi stared at Yan Xiu’s hesitant expression as he said.

"Wait, the foot of the mountain?" Yan Xiu muttered those words as the crimson brilliance in his eyes wavered. His emotions seemed extremely unstable.

"Yes, if you do not believe me, you can go and take a look. If Fang Zhengzhi knew that you have died here without a valid reason, how do you think he will feel? He only has a few months left in this world. Do you want him to spend the remaining time taking revenge for you?" Fang Zhengzhi continued.

"Taking revenge for me? No, he has many things to do. I cannot allow him to waste his time. I have to wait...no, you are wrong. He will definitely come to Heaven Dao Pavilion, he has made a promise. Furthermore, how do you know that he only has a few months left? You..." Yan Xiu’s mind was in a whirl as the pain assaulting his body intensified. The crimson glow under his feet trembled violently.

"Since you are so stubborn, die!" The Fifth Elder cast a cold glance at Yan Xiu before he charged forward. He was traveling at the speed of light.

He naturally noticed that Fang Zhengzhi and Yan Xiu had the intention to collaborate in this battle. One of them mastered the Asura Dao while the other had mastered the Heaven Dao. Even if he was the Fifth Elder of the Heaven Dao Pavilion, it would be a challenge to face two such geniuses at once.

This was especially so for Fang Zhengzhi, who was as cunning as a demon. He struck fear and uneasiness into this heart.

When the Third Elder stepped forward, who would have thought that Fang Zhengzhi would win?

This was impossible!

But the Third Elder indeed lost. Furthermore, he lost shamefully, losing all his dignity in the process. The Fifth Elder was thus constantly on guard from Fang Zhengzhi. Who knew what other shameless tactics he would have up his sleeves?

In that case...

He had to first eliminate one of them.

To prevent any accidents from happening.

Boom! His palm landed on Yan Xiu’s body. This was already the most gentle strike the Fifth Elder could deliver. Even then, Yan Xiu’s body shuddered violently upon impact.

The brilliant crimson light enveloping his body seemed to have found an opening and rushed straight back into Yan Xiu’s body.

Yan Xiu then vomited another mouthful of blood. Together with the strands of red lines still hanging in the air, it looked exactly like a blood rain.

"Yan Xiu!" A painful scream of despair echoed. Following which, a purple light rushed into the horizon. It was demonic and sinister at the same time.
