Chapter 734: Imminent Death

Liang Canghai trained his gaze at Ling Xiaozui for a brief moment before shifting it to Dugu Chou and finally at Gu Chaliang. A sense of extreme hatred burned in his orbs. He sucked in a deep breath and said, "We\'ll have to requite the great favor you three have provided before we can talk about my death."

"How can it be just the three of us? There\'s obviously four! Have you forgotten that Feng Xiange was the biggest culprit behind your lethal defeat back then? He was the one who exerted the most force in that battle. If what we did was a huge favor, what about him? How grateful and teary you must be when bowing to him?" Gu Chaliang sneered.

Liang Canghai was unaffected as he replied with a cold smile, "Brother Gu, we don\'t speak between the lines when all of us know the truth. What matter is it to me if I can see you trying to provoke my anger in such a juvenile manner? Instead of me, why don\'t we talk about how it feels like for the three of you to be led around the noses, like dogs being walked, here and there? What do you think about it? I believe that you must have understood, after this time, that one isn\'t triumphant all the time - the Unrivaled, the Unparalleled, they don\'t actually mean being unrivaled and unparalleled, do they?"

"So what if it has been turbulent? At the very least, we\'re still intact up to now. On the other hand, can the Four Seasons Tower say the same? How ludicrously arrogant!" Dugu Chou answered coldly.

With a chortle, Liang Canghai replied, "So what if we can\'t? After all, we\'ve actually played out the two Unrivaled Experts Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou, as well as the so-called divine oracle Heaven\'s Inquisition - not only once, at that. At the very least, we think it\'s worth it!"

He guffawed, extremely presumptuous, and said, "It\'s so very worth it!"

Dugu Chou\'s hand slowly went to the grip of his sword. The rage within him had come to a boiling point. The sword light flickered in his eyes, his sword intent radiating from him in waves of ice.

Gu Chaliang coughed. "Liang Canghai, you managed to avoid death and prolong your life despite being held in a fatal grip that day. It says a lot about your luck. However, seeing as to how you\'ve come here in your original appearance today, the itch has thrilled me to see your prophecy. Are you interested to have a listen?"

Liang Canghai replied with a scoff, "Could Heaven\'s Inquisition have seen some huge change in the course of destiny? However, why have I also heard that the oracle of Heaven\'s Inquisition isn\'t allowed to disclose his knowledge? If it could be announced so easily, what prophecy could come out of it?"

"Heaven\'s will isn\'t disclosable - it is a fortune teller\'s taboo, for sure. Still, there\'s an exception to this; when the target is already being illuminated by the star of death, when death is imminent and it can\'t be helped whether the oracle has spoken or not. That will have nothing to do with disclosing heaven\'s will then. You are in such a threat now. This will be where you will fall; furthermore, today is the day when you, Liang Canghai, will return to the creator!" Gu Chaliang laughed.

Liang Canghai cackled as well. "A threat? This is where I fall? Return to the creator? A threat, just from the three of you?"

Gu Chaliang was still laughing, shaking his head to answer only after a while, "All of us intend to take your life, but it\'s destined that it isn\'t any one of us who kills you. Don\'t you worry though, you\'re sure to die today!"

Liang Canghai sneered. "Brilliant! Gu Chaliang, I\'d love to see how your oracle comes true, and who, other than the three of you, dares to make a move against me."

Before his words could even echo in the air, he spun around and shot up. A glint flew from his hands and it instantly turned into a shocking bolt laced with a piercing shriek, coming down with formidable force.

Liang Canghai\'s target was apparently the Residence of Nine Supremes that lay beneath them!

It was visible to Ling Xiaozui and the other two men that what Liang Canghai used was not the ruler he normally wielded, but a titanic steel hammer that looked like it weighed at least several thousand catties!

Truthfully, with the level of their abilities, it was a piece of cake to move things that weighed a few thousand or even several dozen thousand catties of weight. However, famed experts still cared about their reputation and proficient cultivators could infuse mystical Qi into any plant or natural object to turn them into lethal instruments of death. Rare was the one who resorted to using such massive weapons!

Rare as it was, the massive hammer that was charged with mystical Qi of a remarkable expert like Liang Canghai bore the power of a falling meteor when it was tossed. The momentum was unassailable - at least, there were few in this world who could tackle it; any formidable expert had to avoid the force, barely able to fight it head-on.

Even when Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou and Gu Chaliang wanted to stop it, they were already too late. Liang Canghai was hundreds of feet away; it was fated that they would be powerless against the situation.

During the moment Liang Canghai tossed the massive hammer away, he knew that the case was closed. He rose up and guffawed. "My mood today is complete! My three old friends, the future is vast. Let\'s meet again in the martial world, shall we?"

His voice was loud and resounding, but Liang Canghai was already retreating speedily.

The sudden plot twist and unfortunate turn of events prevented Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou and Gu Chaliang from attacking Liang Canghai. The trio was focused on watching the gigantic hammer streaking towards the Residence of Nine Supremes.

Accompanied by the shrill cry of speed tearing through the air, the giant hammer dove powerfully right into the Residence of Nine Supremes that was still engulfed in the purple luminosity.

Obviously, this was the Four Seasons Tower\'s probe into the Residence of Nine Supremes.

Back when Gu Chaliang had ensured that Ling Xiaozui would send the purple jade flute despite everything that had happened, Mr. Nian, who was disguised as Feng Xiange, was thoroughly alarmed. At the risk of destroying his ploy and exposing his identity, he intervened forcefully. It was simply too bad that he went for the wool and came home shorn as not only did he fail to snatch the purple jade flute, he had paid a huge price for it. Even then, he was indignant and had sent some people immediately to test the waters.

This was the main reason the eighteen pinnacle experts of the Four Seasons Tower had come. They were really not here for Ling Xiaozui and the other two!

An observant one could tell that this was when the Residence of Nine Supremes was either at its strongest or its weakest. Like skilled experts in the martial world, why would they seek cover from others when they attempted breakthroughs? It was because despite being at their most powerful during that time, it was also the delicate juncture where they were the weakest and most vulnerable.

A pure probe could render only a limited amount of ill fate to oneself. However, if they had successfully stumbled upon the Residence of Nine Supremes\' weakest state, then this strike would perhaps destroy the entire structure or even annihilate Supreme Cloud directly, saving them from future issues!

Therefore, Liang Canghai had come.

Therefore, he had tossed the steel hammer with all that he had, fully intending to kill.

Therefore, he drew back as well, without pause or hesitation. This was to protect himself.

Under unflinching stares, the gigantic hammer broke into the Residence of Nine Supremes with a piercing shriek.

Strangely, the expected crack of a massive collision everyone on the spot had imagined did not occur. There was neither a tremor nor a quake of a powerful collision!

It was like a leaf or a piece of cotton had landed in the Residence of Nine Supremes, unable to create any effect and naturally, was unable to make any noise.
