Chapter 910: Exposed

The silhouette appeared in an instant, seemingly controlling the entire world.
The enraged and extremely ferocious Day Scorpion Familiar instantly froze on his spot. He discovered that he actually could not move at all. Even when he struggled with all his might, he could not break free of that formless restriction.
“That is...”
The Day Scorpion Familiar’s gaze kept narrowing. His eyes were full of panic and fear. The silhouette was an existence that far exceeded his own. The two of them were not even on the same level. Once one reached the Day Scorpion Familiar’s level of cultivation, they would naturally know that breaking through to the sacred level was not the end – it was merely the beginning.
The Way of Heaven and Earth was endless. Transcending the mortal realm was just the first step for a mortal to defy the heavens. Compared to those who had traveled further, the Day Scorpion Familiar was just an ant.
“Who are you?”
The Day Scorpion Familiar looked at the white silhouette in fear. It was a youth that appeared rather young and whose appearance was rather enchanting. It could be said that this person was the most enchanting person the Day Scorpion Familiar had ever seen in his life. He never imagined that there was actually someone in this world who could look like that.
“You have broken the rules of the Heaven List Tournament and carried out malpractice. You deserve the death penalty.”
Mo Qingtian swept a glance at Xin Wuji. The next moment, a beam of white light was released from his body and landed on Xin Wuji’s body.
Bang!
Xin Wuji directly dropped to the ground like a lump of flesh. His body was broken and no longer had any aura. In mid-air, there was a green silhouette of a scorpion. The scorpion kept shifting and released a faint green glow. It was enveloped by the beam of white light. It seemed to want to escape, but no matter how it tried, it could not.
“Damn it! Damn it!”
Right now, the Day Scorpion Familiar understood that he had been discovered. Even in his dreams, he had not imagined that there was such a frightening strong practitioner in the Divine Dragon Nest. He might be able to trick Primordial Soul Realm immortal cultivators, but strong practitioners of this realm would definitely not be fooled. He most likely had been seen through since the very beginning.
“Please, spare me. I am from the Fu Sang Country. I didn’t mean to break the rules. If you kill me, it will certainly cause an international conflict.”
The Day Scorpion Familiar shouted out loudly in fear. Against such a strong practitioner, it was almost impossible for him to try to escape. The difference between the two of them was too huge. The Day Scorpion Familiar could do whatever he pleased in Fu Sang Country. However, when faced with the Huatian Palace, he definitely did not have the qualifications to be arrogant.
Originally, he was very cautious, worrying that the Huatian Palace might detect him. However, he had not expected that so many uncertainties would happen in the Heaven List Tournament. Powerful contestants had appeared one after another, forcing him to demonstrate some special techniques. Even so, he lost in the end.
“Causing an international conflict? Just because of you? Since you dared to challenge the Huatian Palace, you should have prepared to accept the punishment.”
Mo Qingtian laughed coldly. Fu Sang Country was Hua Xia Country’s neighbor, but it did not side with Hua Xia Country. Instead, it depended on the Gods Alliance of the western world and made enemies of Hua Xia Country at every turn. If the Gods Alliance wasn’t in their way, the Huatian Palace would have eradicated the members of Fu Sang Country long ago. Right now, they dared to come to Hua Xia Country to stir up trouble. They practically came seeking their own deaths.
In the sky above, a giant hand that kept emanating a faint white light appeared. With a grab, the giant hand caught the huge green scorpion in its palm. The next moment, the giant hand with the white light disappeared along with the huge green scorpion. Throughout the entire process, the Day Scorpion Familiar could not even struggle.
“It’s just a doppelganger! Humph.”
Mo Qingtian coldly snorted. The green scorpion was not the original body of the Day Scorpion Familiar and was instead a doppelganger. Although the Day Scorpion Familiar was confident that he would not be discovered when coming to Hua Xia Country this time, as a noble sacred level familiar, it was naturally impossible for him to risk his original body. If he was discovered, his body and soul would both be destroyed. The reward of the Heaven List Tournament was still not worth the Day Scorpion Familiar betting his life on.
However, the price that he paid to have one of his doppelgangers destroyed was not small. It was initially incredibly difficult for an ordinary sacred level familiar to cultivate a doppelganger. The price they paid was rather high. Losing a doppelganger was equivalent to crippling one of Day Scorpion Familiar’s arms. It directly affected his ability by more than a third.
“These past few years, Fu Sang Country has been too cozy. They actually dared to reach out to Hua Xia Country. It seems that we need to knock them down a peg or two.”
Mo Qingtian had already informed the Huatian Palace of the green scorpion’s identity through their intelligence system. As a well known Fu Sang Country sacred level familiar, it was naturally not hard for him to identify the Day Scorpion Familiar.
“Let the tournament continue.”
After destroying the Day Scorpion Familiar’s doppelganger, Mo Qingtian’s silhouette once again disappeared. From the time he appeared to the moment he left had happened in just the span of a few breaths. The previously ferocious Xin Wuji was already a corpse lying on the ground. Many spectators hadn’t even realized what had transpired.
“Damn it! Damn it! How is this possible? How could we be seen through? We shouldn’t have...”
In the grandstand, Genta’s face instantly turned pale beyond compare. His figure shivered, and his eyes were full of panic and fear. The Day Scorpion Familiar’s doppelganger had been destroyed, and just after making an appearance at that! He was very familiar with how heavy a blow this was for the Day Scorpion Familiar. A familiar with a doppelganger was usually a peerlessly powerful familiar. The Day Scorpion Familiar could rank among the top ten in Fu Sang Country because he had cultivated a doppelganger.
Now, his doppelganger had been destroyed. The Day Scorpion Familiar was definitely furious. Even the Day Scorpion Familiar’s original body’s position in the clan would plummet. His clan was the most ancient clan in Fu Sang Country. There were other sacred level familiars aside from the Day Scorpion Familiar. Within the same clan, there was also conflict between familiars. In the clan, there was still another sacred level familiar that was the Day Scorpion Familiar’s arch-nemesis. Having suffered such severe injuries, the Day Scorpion Familiar would certainly be at a disadvantage in future clashes between the clan factions.
As the youth successor of Day Scorpion Familiar, this directly affected whether Genta could inherit the position of clan leader.
“How did it come to this?” Genta clenched his fists tightly. His nails pierced his own palm.
“Wuji, my grandson Wuji...”
Xin Yichuan was deeply grieved. He was instantly stunned. He had not imagined that such a change would occur. Everything was going smoothly before, and Xin Wuji was without equal. In the blink of an eye, they had ended up with a dead person.
“Xin Yichuan, the Day Scorpion Familiar has already lost a doppelganger. I believe you know what you should do.”
Genta suddenly looked at Xin Yichuan. As one of the most outstanding youths in the clan and a young man that had always been favored by Day Scorpion Familiar, he naturally had extraordinary ability. In the span of a few breaths, he adjusted his mindset. Regardless of what had just happened, what was done was done. Right now, his priority was to bring up the rear and cover his tracks. As long as the Huatian Palace did not have concrete evidence, then they would be unable to do anything further against his clan.
“I...” Xin Yichuan’s expression instantly turned extremely pale.
“Xin Yichuan, for you to be able to cultivate up to the Martial Arts Grandmaster Realm and become an elder of a sect, I believe you understand what it means to give and take. Don’t disappoint me. Otherwise...”
Genta stared at Xin Yichuan, a sinister look in his eyes. He was not afraid of Xin Yichuan not submitting. When they chose Xin Yichuan, they knew that he was a person who placed his clan and family members above all else.
“Rest assured. I will take care of your clan and family members. I will not let them be aggrieved. You’d better not make the wrong choice,” Genta said plainly.
“Young master Genta, I know what to do. I just hope that you can spare my clan!” Xin Yichuan laughed bitterly. As long as Genta did not find fault with his clan, he would be grateful. As for protecting them? Xin Yichuan was not a child. How would he believe the words of a person from Fu Sang Country?
