<strong>Capítulo 1627: Chapter 1620: A Man Who Dominates an Era</strong>
“What’s wrong, Avril, have you run out of words? You know Lu Tianxing very well, maybe you’ve deliberately joined forces with him to deal with us, am I right!” Dio looked at Avril’s expression, his eyes gleaming with cold light, and spoke again.
Upon hearing Dio’s words again, a glimmer shed in Avril’s eyes, suppressing her inner agitation, her beautiful eyes fell coldly like frost on Dio’s face, her tone was calm as she said, “I don’t know if what you said is wrong, and I don’t want to know, but I can tell you, insulting the Holy Daughter of the Holy Seees with a price, Dio. If you say one more word, believe it or not, I’ll make sure you can’t leave Maria Church.”
“Haha…, you won’t let me leave the church, Avril, just by you? Do you believe that I’ll immediately spread this news, so that all the Church followers around the world know that their noble Holy Daughter has fallen for a man.” Hearing this, Dioughed loudly, looking at Avril and said unperturbedly, he belonged to the American Superhero Team, and Avril dared not kill him.
Avril said coldly, “Elder Charles, give him some lessons for me.”
“Not good!”
Hearing Avril’s words, Dio’s face suddenly changed, subconsciously wanting to activate his petrification ability, but before he could make a move, he felt an extremely terrifying momentum pressing down on him, the violent force weighed like a huge mountain on his body, causing him to kneel heavily to the ground, his forehead seeping tons of cold sweat, his eyes showing a hint of unmistakable fear, he felt utterly powerless under this force, this was definitely the momentum of a Late Stage Mythical creature.
“Alright, Elder Charles, just make him kneel.”
Seeing Dio kneeling before her, a hint of sarcasm shed in Avril’s eyes, she spoke coldly, “Dio, do you think your status is your shield? I’m telling you, your status means nothing to me, insulting the Holy Daughter of the Holy See, just for that, even if I kill you, your American Superhero Team wouldn’t dare utter a word, do you believe me?”
“You…”
Seeing the irrepressible mocking expression on Avril’s face, a hint of extreme malice shed in Dio’s eyes, but he dared not act impulsively, as he had already seen Charles silently appearing beside Avril, from the previous momentum, he knew Charles could easily kill him, and coupled with the fact that he had insulted the Holy Daughter of the Holy See, with the testimony of the opposing Poseidon, the American Superhero Team really might not pursue the matter.
“Dio, this is merely a warning, without evidence, don’t randomly nder someone. I, Avril, conduct my affairs, never needing anyone to interfere, do you understand?”
Avril chuckled coldly and continued, “I’ve already told you before not to act impulsively, but you wouldn’t listen, Ryan’s death was entirely self-inflicted because of you, if I were truly connected to Lu Tianxing, I wouldn’t have let Poseidon save you earlier, moreover, if I were associated with Lu Tianxing, knowing you came to trouble Lu Tianxing, I would’ve joined forces with Lu Tianxing and wiped you all out at once, there’s no need for all these troubles, use your stone brain to think about it.”
After listening to Avril’s words, Dio attempted several times to retort and embarrass Avril again to take revenge for the previous humiliation, but each time he wanted to speak, he somehow could not utter a single word, and had nothing to refute.
Because what Avril said was correct, if Avril truly had connections with Lu Tianxing, she wouldn’t need all this nonsense, she could have directly joined Lu Tianxing in setting a trap for them, wiping them outpletely, avoiding unnecessary battles.
“Use your stone brain to think clearly, dare to spout nonsense again, then don’t me me for being rude. You can leave now, I want to rest.”
Avril’s gaze swept over Dio and Poseidon, issuing a direct order to leave without any politeness.
“Holy Daughter, since it’s alreadyte, I’ll take my leave now, next time when there’s action, just notify me, and if any misguided individuals offend the Holy Daughter, my Holy Mountain will be happy to help you get rid of such unnecessary troubles.”
Poseidon’s gaze subtly swept over Dio and directly ignored Dio’s icy re, saying to Avril, then turned and headed outside.
“Humph, Holy Mountain, once I get the Four Symbols Ring, I’ll ughter all of you.”
Looking at Poseidon’s receding figure, Dio’s face immediately turned extremely ugly, exuding an incredibly chilly aura, muttered a farewell to Avril, then headed outside.
Watching Dio’s departing back, a hint of gloomy killing intent shed in Avril’s eyes, her originally exquisite and beautiful face frigid like frost, exuding a chilling murderous aura.
“Dio, humph.”
Avril snorted heavily, showing her extremely unhappy mood.
“Holy Daughter, Dio is really too much this time. If it weren’t for me going to kill him, he’d never shut his mouth forever!”
Charles stood beside Avril, his tone carrying a hint of undisguised murderous intent. The rtionship between Avril and Lu Tianxing, once reported back to the Church, would be the most fatal blow for Avril. Not to mention inheriting the Pope’s position, the moment she returns to the Church, what awaits her would be punishment, possibly even burning at the stake.
“Don’t kill him for now; he still has his uses. We still need cannon fodder from the American Superhero Team. Besides, he won’t live long; the Judge will help us take him out.”
A glimmer shed in Avril’s eyes as she looked at Elder Charles and said, “Elder Charles, you don’t need to take action this time?”
“I don’t need to take action?”
Upon hearing Avril’s words, a hint of perplexity shed across Charles’s face. “Holy Daughter, if I don’t take action, you might not be able to deal with Lu Tianxing.”
“Elder Charles, this is also ast resort.”
Avril sighed and said, “Lu Tianxing has a good rtionship with Sima Lingyun, and if I’m guessing correctly, Sima Lingyun might also be aware of people from the Holy Mountain and the American Superhero Team appearing in Beijing. The reason he hasn’t acted yet might be because the Yanhuang Group is being controlled by major families and doesn’t have much power to mobilize, so they chose to stand by. Nevertheless, they should still be able to mobilize severalte-stage mythical masters. They can tolerate us dealing with Lu Tianxing but will definitely not allow mythical stage masters to act because they need a de to sharpen Lu Tianxing. If I’m not mistaken, the Yanhuang Group is probably nning to cultivate Lu Tianxing into the sharpest de.”
“The sharpest de?” A hint of doubt shed in Charles’s eyes.
“Elder Charles, do you remember Nie Kuangren from more than seventy years ago?” Avril said slowly.
“What, Nie Kuangren?”
Upon hearing Avril’s words, Charles’s body trembled violently, his face showing undisguised fear, clearly terrified to the extreme by the name Nie Kuangren.
Nie Kuangren, a peerless genius of over seventy years ago, was also the first leader of the Yanhuang Group.
It was a time coinciding with China’s turmoil, when Nie Kuangren emerged as a renowned prodigy, his strength frightening to the extreme.
During the turmoil, various martial artists gathered in China—ninjas, superpower users, the Church, Arctic Bears, and other masters—each wanting to take a share. Nie Kuangren, a teenage prodigy at the time, single-handedly wielded a de to break through the entire Huaxia Land, making martial artists from various countries shudder at his approach.
Nie Kuangren’s strength advanced rapidly through repeated trials until the end of China’s turmoil, in just under three years. His strength went from an earth-level realm to breaking into thete stage of mythical, crossing a path that usually took ordinary people tens of years. At that time, Nie Kuangren was only twenty-eight years old.
Being twenty-eight years old andte stage of mythical, imagine how terrifying this was. In the next century, perhaps no one would be able to shake Nie Kuangren’s status. If there were no idents, this era belonged solely to Nie Kuangren.
Butter, to deal with Nie Kuangren, various forces gathered countless masters and found an opportunity to secretly poison him. Through a siege, they finally killed Nie Kuangren in Shennongjia. Nevertheless, the masters besieging him were nearly all dead or injured, with only a handful managing to escape, leaving Nie Kuangren’s name to be a taboo, one that no one wished to mention.
Nie Kuangren was the de cultivated by China back then, a de carved out using foreign masters as grindstones.
Now Avril is telling him that Lu Tianxing could potentially be the second Nie Kuangren; how could that not astonish and frighten him? Knowing that Nie Kuangren was a figure capable of suppressing an era, now Avril isparing Lu Tianxing to someone capable of suppressing an era; how could that not surprise and shock him?
Charles swallowed, suppressing the turmoil in his heart, and said, “Holy Daughter, are you mistaken? As far as I know, Nie Kuangren was the first leader of the Yanhuang Group. Even if the Yanhuang Group wants to cultivate a de to deter foreign masters, they should cultivate Sima Lingyun, not Lu Tianxing. After all, Sima Lingyun’s aptitude speaks for itself. Could the Yanhuang Group be nning to have Lu Tianxing seed as the leader of the Yanhuang Group?”
PS: Sigh, speechless, this hot weather, thirty-seven to thirty-eight degrees all day, and there’s a power outage,sting several hours at a time. Is this meant to murder us?
