Chapter 717 - The Power of the Divine Arrows
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Qin Xiaotian was strangely calm. He only listened with a cold sneer as if he was listening to the most irrelevant matter he had ever heard.
“That’s right, the Qin Clan is being so proud and overbearing, it’s outrageous. My Heavenly Punishing Villa cannot stand their atrocities any longer! Your majesty, please hold justice for the Heavenly Punishing Villa!” Yan Guinan walked out of the ranks and bowed at the Heavenly Emperor with one knee.
“For my Sound of Thunder Sect, please hold justice, your majesty!” Lei Ming did not try to overdo his plea.
Xin Tianchen glared at the Qin Clan with an awful gaze and said, “Qin Wushuang, on that day in order to seize the Supreme Dao Fruit, you attacked your fellow disciples from the Heavenly Emperor Mountain at the Ten Thousand Flower Valley. There are countless witnesses. That day at the Karakorum Immortal Clan, you relied on people making false testimony for you and you somehow escaped. Today, let’s see how you manage!”
Qin Xiaotian gave a cold sneer and had completely ignored Xin Tianchen’s pretentious actions. Instead, he looked at that Xin Tianwen casually and asked with an indifferent tone, “Your majesty, for all these years, your Xin Clan has been patient, but now you wish to make a move since the Qin Clan has acquired a few Supreme Dao Fruit? To make a move against my Qin Clan, I am afraid it’s your sore point, right? What was Qin Wushuang’s strength when he departed? He was at about the Perfect Void Martial Stage. What was Xin Wuji’s strength? He was right beneath the Supreme Dao Stage. Not to mention that Xin Wuji had a number of other accomplices, with Qin Wushuang’s power alone, he killed those four or five people? Are you insulting everyone’s intelligence and strength?”
“Wushuang, you should tell them,” Qin Xiaotian shouted.
Qin Wushuang revealed a light smile and walked forward leisurely. “Initially, this matter was already explained clearly at the Karakorum Immortal Clan, I don’t find it necessary to speak about it again... However, since you would like to hear it again, your majesty, I will narrate it one more time. Yan Qiansui, Lei Hong, and that Xin Wuwang were swallowed by the divine beast. Xin Wuji was chasing me and trying to kill me, so I used a counter tactic to kill him, this is true. In terms of violating the three laws, it would be Xin Wuji at fault and not me. Of course, since your majesty has gathered so many people to go after the crime of the Qin Clan, of course you have relied on the ability to influence the public opinion of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain. Even if the Qin Clan grew tongues all over our bodies, I am afraid we could still not clarify this reason for you.”

Qin Xiaotian gave a long roaring laugh and said with loftiness, “Your majesty, regardless of how the Qin Clan is handling matters, we are true men that accept the consequences of our actions. Since Xin Wuji has been killed by Qin Wushuang, sure we would admit it. If you want to use other people’s death to frame my Qin Clan and dishonor our name, we will stand up for ourselves! Naturally the justice is within people’s hearts!”
Xin Tianwen said with a cold sneer, “You old and young are rather clever and eloquent. For today’s matter, regardless if you admit to your treason or not, this will not be the end!”
“Everyone, based on the rules of the Heavenly Emperor Mountain, those who do not respect the order of the Heavenly Emperor, all sects of the Heavenly Emperor Gate should attack them together! Everyone, as you are not accomplices to the Qin, you should not be fooled by them. How should we proceed with today’s matter?” Xin Tianwen asked with a dignified manner.
As he tried to pressure the neutral sects, for a time, they were in a state of mutual hostility.
The Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect seized the chance to create a rowdy jeering. “The Qin Clan should be put to death!”
“If the Qin Clan is not dealt with, there will be no more peaceful days at the Heavenly Emperor Mountain!”
“Your majesty, please give the order!”
The four Supreme Dao elite warriors of the Heavenly Punishing Villa and the Sound of Thunder Sect all stood up and formed a horn position to surround Qin Xiaotian.
The other leaders of the sects looked at each other in dismay.
For the Yun Clan, Yun Xuechen gave a profound look at the people of the Xin Clan. He stood up swiftly and said, “Your majesty, Head Chief Qin, this is an old grudge between your sects, the Yun Clan does not want to be part of it. Regardless which side, do not think about pulling the Yun into the water. Whoever forces the Yun to participate, with anger we will probably just join the other side. Therefore, the Yun stays neutral!”
As soon as Yun Xuechen spoke, the Mysterious Reform Gate, Hundred Lane Clan, and the Thousand Feather Sect all stated their position, “Yes, we will stay neutral, your majesty. For the truth and wrong, crooked and straight, we have not seen it with our own eyes. We would not dare to make a judgement and get involved. Please allow us, the Mysterious Reform Gate, to stay neutral.”
“Your majesty, the Hundred Lane Clan has always been clean-living and honest, we do not wish to get involved in these meaningless grudges. We will also remain neutral.”
“My Thousand Feather Sect, will be neutral.”
If the Yun Clan had not taken the lead to remain neutral, those three powerhouses would not have had the courage to call out and also stay neutral. Since the Yun Clan declared their state, the other sects were able to fall in line.
After all, as the Heavenly Emperor Gate did not dare to force the Yun Clan, naturally they could not force them. Or else, when these three sects joined hands together to fall to the Qin Clan, it would be disadvantageous to the Heavenly Emperor Gate.
Even if they were to join the Qin Clan and become united next to the Yun Clan, the four sects could definitely make the Heavenly Emperor Gate hard to take it in! Therefore, now they definitely had the capital to remain neutral!
Qin Xiaotian laughed. “Xin Tianwen, you overestimated your clan’s power to rally supporters!”
Xin Tianwen shouted, “Activate the defenses of the divine palace, all unrelated people stay in your place! Or else, do not blame the defenses for injuring you!”
Qin Xiaotian gave a roaring laugh and urged his body all of a sudden to transform into a shadow-like figure. As fast as a ghost, he rolled like a tornado and swept along Qin Wushuang to flee outside.
He gave a long whistle. “Xin Tianwen, to make your move, I will wait for you at the Aspiring Throne Mountain!”
In the midst of the conversation, he had already made it to the entrance of the divine palace.
At this moment, a burst of golden light covered the door of the divine palace. It had suppressed Qin Xiaotian’s body immediately.
Boom!
As soon as this burst of golden light forced itself down, it had pushed Qin Xiaotian down to the ground.
While everyone was dumbstruck, suddenly there came Qin Xiaotian’s long whistle again. Mirages kept flashing in the sky, as if the wind was puffing away clouds, bursts of magical shadows had made it seem like thousands or tens of thousands of Qin Xiaotian were dancing in the divine palace.
Suddenly, Qin Xiaotian shouted loudly and with a grab from his palm, a long spear puffed out a lightning-like tongue to shoot towards the golden light at the door.
“Open!”
Although the golden light was overbearing and tyrannical, urged by this lightning, an opening had been created instantly. With a roll, Qin Xiaotian floated outside the door.
Qin Wushuang only felt his entire body relax as Qin Xiaotian had already sent him out a few miles away. “Wushuang, you shall go back first!”
Qin Wushuang urged the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings and his aura all of a sudden. Holding the Graceful Spiritual Bow at hand, he let out a cry, “Head Chief, I will fight with you!”
The Shooting Sun Arrows emitted dazzling golden lights as they were already placed on to the Graceful Spiritual Bow.
Instantly, Qin Wushuang had urged the Supreme Dao presence to the extreme. Although this Supreme Dao presence had not been gained through his training for he had got it through that divine light baptism, it had caused endless resonating from the Graceful Spiritual Bow as he activated this power. It seems that this Supreme Dao presence had matched with the Shooting Sun Arrows and the Graceful Spiritual Bow naturally for it buzzed with power.
Instantly, Qin Wushuang felt as if his power had been increased more than he could imagine. He locked his gaze at one of the Supreme Dao elite warriors that dashed out of the door.
That was Lei Ming from the Sound of Thunder Sect!
“Shoot, shoot him to death!” Inside Qin Wushuang’s heart, a domineering voice kept howling. As if the devil had been awakened from its sleep inside Qin Wushuang’s heart, it had awakened his endless murderous consciousness. Kill, kill, kill!
Now, Qin Wushuang was controlled by the thought of shooting Lei Ming to death!
This powerful thought drove Qin Wushuang’s eyes red. As he urged the Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings, like a long rainbow, he flew backwards.
The Graceful Spiritual Bow and his body had been combined into perfect harmony. During his flying process, he put an arrow into the bow!
This was Qin Wushuang’s first time using the combination of the Graceful Spiritual Bow and the Shooting Sun Arrows. It was also the first encounter between the Shooting Sun Arrows and the Graceful Spiritual Bow after a few thousand years.
The powerful desolate presence seemed to instantly upgrade the power of the Graceful Spiritual Bow by a thousand times.
Whoosh!
The Shooting Sun Arrow transformed into golden lights that filled the sky. Like a meteor falling from the sky, it shot towards the direction of Lei Ming with incomparable speed.
When the golden light transformed to fill the entire sky, it resembled a beautiful arching bridge... Boom!
Almost with unstoppable power, the golden light collided with Lei Ming. He had never thought Qin Wushuang would be much of a threat, he had only intended to capture him. He never thought that the power contained in this shooting golden light was this powerful and was incomparable to what the rumors had said.
“Oh no!”
An unpleasant thought flashed across Lei Ming’s mind. Almost at the same time, the pupils of Heavenly Emperor Xin Tianwen shrunk rapidly. “That was the Graceful Spiritual Bow! However, this Graceful Spiritual Bow has the original Shooting Sun Arrows? This was not mentioned in the information! Didn’t it say that the Shooting Sun Arrows were already taken by the Xuan Yuan Clan? What was going on?” his head was full of questions.
He was just about to yell for Lei Ming to retreat, but before you know it, the golden light had shot directly at him and penetrated his chest!
His Supreme Dao armor emitted a miserable splitting sound. With a crackling sound, the Shooting Sun Arrow had penetrated it directly. The power of the Shooting Sun Arrow was incredible tyrannical as it pierced the Supreme Dao armor and had of course, hit the fatal Dantian directly!
“Boom!”
His body instantly exploded into tiny pieces. Lei Ming gave a miserable cry and his divine soul had scuttled in wanting to escape from the body. No one had ever expected the endless power of that Shooting Sun Arrow. Since ancient times, they were responsible for countless Supreme Dao warrior’s deaths. It was the most greedy towards the divine soul of the Supreme Dao elite warriors.
As it did not take a break, it followed the direction where that divine soul had escaped and hit it directly!
As the golden light exploded, the divine soul had nowhere to escape and it exploded completely. Lei Ming’s divine soul let out a miserable sad call.
“Roar!”
For thousands of miles surrounding the Heavenly Emperor Gate, the bitter sad call had resonated and echoed nonstop. The divine soul had burst open and exploded!
Lei Ming was, dead!
Qin Wushuang called with the Graceful Spiritual Bow and like a spiritual beast, the Shooting Sun Arrow flew backwards spiritually. It fell into the hands of Qin Wushuang.
This attack had used a lot of the strength of the Shooting Sun Arrow as its spiritual Qi was exhausted. It lay quietly in Qin Wushuang’s hands and its light flashed and dimmed to exhibit incredible weirdness.
Qin Wushuang knew that this Shooting Sun Arrow was also a spiritual good and needed time to recover.
“Second!” Lei Yue let out a bitter cry. With bloodshot eyes, he wanted to chase and kill Qin Wushuang.
Lei Ming and Yan Guinan were only Coagulate Spirit warriors at the Fourth or Fifth Stage. They were less strong than Qin Chongyang. Plus Qin Wushuang’s arrow attack was very sudden and with Lei Ming underestimating the enemy, he was met with great calamity.
However, Lei Yue was not ordinary for he was an elite warrior at the Transformation Supreme Dao Stage! He urged his aura as he wanted to come and kill Qin Wushuang.
Qin Xiaotian had just fixed his energy to cross moves with Xin Tianwen, but upon seeing Lei Yue charge at Qin Wushuang, he transformed into a meteoric light and stopped the path where Lei Yue was charging. With a cold sneer, he slapped with his palm.
At the same time, he flicked his left sleeve and shouted at Qin Wushuang, “Go!”
Following unconsciously, Qin Wushuang was swept away by this Supreme Dao wind and galloped in the direction of the Aspiring Throne Mountain with his Purple Cloud Ying Yang Wings.
