Chapter 735: Hammered!

This was evidently a decidedly abnormal phenomenon.

The few-thousand-catty giant hammer had been pitched by Liang Canghai with all his might, a man who was basically a pinnacle level expert in this world. The strength, flow, and power he had yielded must have been at least a few hundred catties of force!

Logically, the entire Tiantang City would collapse into rubble in aftermath of the earthquake that would have erupted from such a strike.

Why was it soundless without any reaction at all?

Gu Chaliang watched Liang Canghai who was drawing back in a suave manner with mockery in his gaze, commenting faintly, "Seeking his own death - Liang Canghai is doomed!"

"Seeking his own death? Why so?" Ling Xiaozui asked in confusion.

Gu Chaliang nodded slowly as he spoke, "What I said earlier was the truth. I did see his features before speaking the oracle. He does a lethal tribulation that awaits him. Today is definitely the day of his fall! There's no other way!"

Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui's eyes widened instantly, tracing over Liang Canghai who was still fleeing gracefully, and muttered, "This... this doesn't look like he's dying. Seeking his death? How is he seeking his death... Oh f*ck!"

The curse came simultaneously from both pinnacle experts, their eyes almost bulging out of their sockets.

There was a ripple from the violet radiance at the Residence of Nine Supremes. Then, a gigantic hammer flew out, weaving drunkenly, from the luminosity. It reached a height of thousands of feet, and with a swish, it went chasing after Liang Canghai.

It's speed... its speed gave even an expert like Ling Xiaozui goosebumps!

It was because they had just seen the hammer flying out, yet Liang Canghai's head had burst with a gruesome splatter despite his retreating motion at the very next moment. His body was still in the poised form of retreating, but his head was already gone.

Upon crushing Liang Canghai's head and separating it from the body, the enormous hammer stopped in its tracks and fell with a loud crash.

Ling Xiaozui and pals had seen the hammer rising, so Liang Canghai, who was retreating backward, should have been able to see it as well. In fact, he had seen it - he had seen clearly that the steel hammer was chasing after him, but he had been struck before he could respond.

Seeking his death - he was truly seeking his death!

The pinnacle expert Liang Canghai, the famed Skied Glints of Gold across the world, had died here, in such an abrupt manner!

Until the moment before his death, he was still flaunting his triumph! Until the moment before his head was crushed, he was still suave and dignified!

On the opposite end, there was obviously a wave of disbelief and concern from the Four Seasons Tower's seventeen people. A few gasps could be faintly heard from where they were.

Despite the suddenness of it all, there were two shadows that flashed swiftly from the group. Quick as lightning, they received Liang Canghai's headless corpse. In spite of it, Ling Xiaozui saw the apparent tremors that ran through their bodies, a dead giveaway that they were shocked about the current situation.

Then, the gigantic hammer finally landed from its flight, causing a large explosion. The land shook, causing the whole of Yutang to tremble!

The two people in the air turned to look straight at Gu Chaliang. Although there was a considerable distance between them and it could hardly do any damage, the stacked iciness in the pair's eyes was glaring with killing intent.

Gu Chaliang was not bothered at all. Instead, he guffawed. The delight was clear in his voice when he said, "What are the two of you looking at? Heaven-inflicted pains can't be helped but self-inflicted actions? You asked for it. I've disclosed the heaven's will earlier - I told him that he'd be trialed fatally, but he didn't care. Everything is the culmination of his own actions; he reaped what he sowed. Can I be blamed? Did you really think that my title as Heaven's Inquisition is a sham?"

A clear voice rang out, "Heaven's Inquisition... having the destiny of prophecy and the ability to peek at heaven's will indeed... Being able to witness it now is so much more exciting than hearing about it. I am truly impressed."

Gu Chaliang said mockingly, "He' was but cannon fodder you fellows sent out to probe. No need to forge such a pretense, it's revolting! If you really took him as your brother, why didn't you come to test the power of the Residence of Nine Supremes for him?"

A few people grunted in rage; their hands held tightly onto their weapons, ready to take action.

Gu Chaliang remained oblivious despite the obvious tension. He was still laughing without a care. "Oh, how terrifying! You Four Seasons Tower people are so great, aren't you? Since you have such kinship, such comradeship, why don't you hurry to seek revenge for Liang Canghai now that he's dead? All of you can come at us together!"

"The one who killed Liang Canghai is the Residence of Nine Supremes in front of us all! Go avenge his death directly! What's the point of posing and putting up a front there? It is better to actually fight!"

"All of you will be at the top of this world if you dared to take on the Residence of Nine Supremes; otherwise, you're all gutless little twerps!" Gu Chaliang spat and said derisively.

Ling Xiaozui cackled. "What a statement, Old Gu! Not bad, not bad. Those who dare not seek revenge for their brothers are all coward,s no matter how high their cultivation base!"

The seventeen people from the Four Seasons Tower glared daggers at the three people here. The murderous intent kept on accumulating - like the reservoir's water, once it spilled, it would be formidable and impossible to stop.

In spite of this, Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou and Gu Chaliang were not intimidated. They continued mocking and laughing heartily, taunting and angering them.

Beneath, the Residence of Nine Supremes continued to glimmer with the purple luminescence. It was unmoved, like unshakable mountains, overlooking the world coldly.

A significant period of time passed. No matter how enraged and how repeatedly they were ridiculed, the thought to strike at the Residence of Nine Supremes again did not cross the heads of the seventeen men from the Four Seasons Tower.

A superb expert like Liang Canghai who was parallel to Ling Xiaozui and Dugu Chou had been so easily annihilated by the Residence of Nine Supremes after his one attempt... Would it not be sending themselves to death's door if they had gone to try?

Even when all seventeen of them attacked together, they might not achieve anything - they might just be giving seventeen lives away!

Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou and Gu Chaliang did not mind lowering their reputations, putting aside their identities, as they jeered at the men with an ulterior motive, hoping that the latter could be deceived and seek their death.

It was abhorrent!

An icy voice came from afar, "Ling Xiaozui, Dugu Chou, Gu Chaliang, we shall remember what the three of you did today! The wheel of fortune is always spinning. Should we meet again, there won't be a next time for all of you to have the luck to be able to flee like rats."

"Let's go!" The person who spoke commanded sternly without waiting for a reply after the threat.

Dugu Chou raised his voice then. "Why are you in such a hurry? Is Feng Xiange's impostor dead yet? The three of us are very concerned about the life and death of our old friend! Turning white in a day and coming to the last leg of his life with the snap of a finger, how many days are left for him to struggle to live?"
