Chapter 1143: Chapter 1143: Fame Across Eight Directions
"Good, very good!"
The mysterious Martial Saint gritted his teeth and said, suddenly retreating rapidly. After a few leaps, he disappeared into the crowd and left.
He was very rational. Faced with the combined force of the two Martial Saints, he had no chance and might even get himself killed, so he left directly; escaping was the best strategy.
The square fell silent momentarily.
Everyone looked at the spot where the mysterious Martial Saint had stood, a bit unable to gather their thoughts. When the mysterious Martial Saint appeared earlier, the momentum was so grandeur, his cold words resonated throughout the entire venue.
In the end, he just fled directly.
For a moment, everyone didn’t know how to describe their feelings. They wanted to laugh but couldn’t bring themselves to do so.
They looked at Xiao Zheng, their eyes now filled with reverence, with no trace of disdain left.
Previously, Xiao Zheng was merely a Martial Saint, just a Martial Saint. In this Martial Arts World, there are eight great sacred lands, so there are quite a few Martial Saints, which can be balanced!
But now, it seems the power behind Xiao Zheng is also not to be underestimated. Futu, Yihua Palace, are all top-tier forces, even not weaker than the martial sacred lands! Seeing Xiao Zheng again now, one must change their perspective entirely.
This Evil God is not easy to provoke!
As for the elders of Medicine King Valley and the seniors of the Hushan Sect, they were now completely downcast and upset.
They originally thought Xiao Zheng might fall in this battle today, but the outcome went entirely in the opposite direction. It can be imagined that in the coming time, Xiao Zheng’s prestige will rise to an unimaginable level!
Bang!
At this moment, Xiao Zheng finally passed out and fell to the ground.
Long Qie and Titan hurried over to support Xiao Zheng, simultaneously expressing gratitude to Dugu Baitian and the lady in white.
"The Evil God is seriously injured; many people will surely target him in the forthcoming time. I’ll escort him back," said Dugu Baitian, glancing at the lady in white as he spoke.
Xiao Zheng’s enemies were too many, and if he were alone, it would be hard to protect him.
"I’ll go too." The lady in white nodded slightly with indifference.
Long Qie and Titan both breathed a sigh of relief, the stone in their hearts finally settled. With Dugu Baitian and the lady in white, there’s no need to worry about the upcoming matters.
And this duel, at this point, was considered concluded!
Among the many Martial Arts World experts in the Xie Family villa area, except for those opposed to Xiao Zheng, everyone wore a satisfied look.
Indeed, today’s battle was classic, the duel between the Evil God and the Beihai Venerable is destined to be inscribed in the annals of Martial Arts history!
They had witnessed history.
And the storm had only just begun here; the news of the Evil God defeating the Beihai Venerable spread through Hua Country’s Martial Arts World at a hurricane-like speed after this battle.
Then, the entire world was shocked!
Everyone was astounded by this battle.
"The Evil God is simply too dazzling; he’s only in his twenties, yet he can defeat a veteran Martial Saint like the Beihai Venerable. If given a few more years to grow, who knows what heights he will reach."
"Such a monster is rare even in hundreds of years. It’s unbelievable he’s appeared in our era, making all his peers pale in comparison; the existence of such a person is truly despairing."
"Indeed, his existence only allows one to gaze up in awe, with no hope of surpassing him."
"Hey, you’re poorly informed. There are plenty of mysterious figures in this world; no matter how talented in martial arts, encountering certain mystical forces will still require kneeling!"
"Hush, silence, how dare you discuss such things, those mysteries are terrifying. If they know, it’ll be a fate worse than death."
Across the vast lands, countless forces and people were discussing it, and the Evil God’s battle was far more shocking than the Demon Shield Bureau battle.
In the end, even some mysterious and terrifying forces in this world were mentioned, but such topics were quickly suppressed.
Some matters are untouchable!
...
"Ah..."
Amidst the global uproar, in an inconspicuous corner of the North Pole, a middle-aged man let out a painful roar.
Many surrounding thick ice pieces were shattered by the sound.
"Master..."
He knelt on the ground with a thud, kowtowing three times toward the south, whispering with mournful eyes: "I never expected you’d just leave like that. You taught me for so many years, and I haven’t yet fulfilled my filial duties to you."
This person is none other than the disciple of the Beihai Venerable! Beihai Venerable had many disciples, among them was Zheng Shenyou, but he favored and valued this person the most.
This man was picked up from the wilderness by Beihai Venerable. At that time, Beihai Venerable’s family was slaughtered by enemies. Just after taking his revenge, he lost all will to live, wandering aimlessly across the land.
Then, in a desolate land, Beihai Venerable found an abandoned baby, and at that moment, his consistently cold heart was moved, so he picked up the baby and raised him as his own son.
Their bond can be said to be like father and son.
"Master, rest assured, I will stop at nothing to avenge you! Damn Evil God, I want you to experience the most intense pain in the world."
The middle-aged man slammed the perennial icy ground with a bang, creating a terrifyingly deep pit in the ice.
His eyes shone with a cold, bloodthirsty look, filled with madness, evidently determined to go all out against Xiao Zheng.
...
The fierce battles in the Martial Arts World, while stirring up many, had no impact at all on the mundane world. Various major powers intentionally kept the matters of the Xie Family’s Martial Saint battle confined within the Martial Arts World.
Therefore, in the secular world, everything was calm. The Hong family father and son felt uneasy after Xiao Zheng defeated Zheng Shenyou that night. Even though they had received Xiao Zheng’s forgiveness previously, they ultimately had neglected this deity!
Thus, the father and son discussed and decided to seek mediation through Leng Haitang to express their gratitude to Xiao Zheng.
However, as soon as they met Leng Haitang, he coldly invited them out and said coldly, "Do not come again."
The father and son walked down the street, exchanged glances, and smiled bitterly.
They were simply the world’s most foolish people, with a great opportunity laid before them, yet they unwittingly forced it away!
Apart from this minor ripple, after the Xie Family’s Martial Saint battle, there was no other incident. Xiao Zheng quietly recuperated under the protection of Dugu Baitian and the lady in white.
