Transcending the Nine Heavens - Chapter 1429 - The Despicable and the Noble
In the shadow, that voice laughed. “Naturally. But the operation is of utmost importance.”
Dong Wushang said coldly. “To catch me, it is not that easy!”
The four had the same premonition.
There was a traitor in the Chu Clan.
The identities of Mo Qingwu and the others were already revealed. Except for the secret that Dong Wushang and the others were the Nine Tribulations which nobody knew, other clear identities were already exposed.
And this ambush was planned from the close interaction between the traitor and the Xiao Clan. This, everyone had already thought about!

However, despite this, the position of the traitor in the Chu Clan couldn’t be too low, else they wouldn’t have known.
But this was not the time to consider such things. The danger was imminent!
Without looking at each other at all, Dong Wushang and Rui Butong had already identified their respective tasks — Rui Butong to attack, Dong Wushang to stay and defend!
With a long laugh, a person with his hands clasped behind his back appeared in the light of the fire!
This person was dressed in black, his figure long, three strands of long beard fluttered on the chest as the wind blew, looking very elegant and out of this world.
“I’m Xiao Wufeng.” The person smiled faintly. “Second Master Dong and Brother Rui are natural talents indeed, you have reached second-grade Supreme Martial Artist level at the age of just twenty! As compared to you two, this old man appears much more useless. I wasted 3,300 years of time only to reach sixth-grade Supreme Martial Artist level… I’m ashamed, ashamed indeed!”
Dong Wushang replied coldly, “Since we’ve already reached this point today, not to mention sixth-grade Supreme Martial Artist, even if you were a peak-level ninth-grade Supreme Martial Artist, we brothers would not give up in the slightest! Old man, do you think just saying ‘sixth-grade Supreme Martial Artist’ is enough to scare people?”
Xiao Wufeng’s face darkened. He looked at Dong Wushang carefully, nodded and praised, “Second Master Dong is quite perceptive indeed!”
Rui Butong laughed out loud. “He’s not perceptive, but your scheme is too outdated, so outdated that I won’t bother scolding you…”
A series of muffled “hmph”s sounded from around them.
Obviously, the experts of the Xiao Clan in ambush couldn’t wait anymore.
“What are you humming?” Rui Butong looked from the corner of his eyes. “What? Did you eat without drinking these few days? You can’t shit properly now?”
Figures moved and about a dozen stood up from the dark, their faces full of anger!
Rui Butong successfully attracted the hatred in the battle onto himself, but he was clearly not satisfied and continued to yell. “Don’t blame me for looking down on you! If you have guts, send someone with a comparable cultivation level to fight alone with me!”
Someone from the Xiao Clan sneered and asked coldly, “Under absolute advantage, do you still want to make petty struggles?”
Rui Butong sneered. “This really makes me want to look down on you… Being a proper member of the Nine Super Clans, but nobody actually dares to fight me alone? Where did your courage go? Did they all become needlepoints? Why don’t you tear your face off and paste it on your butts? Come on, is there a man in one of the Nine Super Clans? Is there? Where is the man?”
Everyone in the Xiao Clan shuddered with rage.
What the bastard said was really too bad…
Rui Butong continued to yell. “That’s f*cking it, I see. It turns out that the Xiao Clan from the Nine Super Clans doesn’t even have a man with balls anymore, so they have to invite me over… But even though I’m a bachelor, I still have my worries… If there are more wolves than meat… Can I serve them properly?”
The latter sentence was extremely degrading.
Mo Lei’er and Mo Qingwu both flushed upon hearing it…
The desired effect was achieved immediately!
A thin old man clenched his fist and asked, “Elder Master, Xiao Changhe asks to fight him! To teach this arrogant man a lesson!”
Xiao Wufeng frowned and said, “Be careful!”
He didn’t stop him.
The cultivation of this Xiao Changhe, like Rui Butong, was also at the peak of second grade; however, his combat experience was at least a thousand years longer than Rui Butong!
Xiao Wufeng had full confidence in the battle.
This was also the reason he agreed.
Both Dong Wushang and Rui Wutong were relieved. As long as it was not a messy team fight in the beginning, the two would be able to drag the time unlimitedly.
Both Chu Yang and Mo Tianji had told them more than once — When faced with an absolute disadvantage with no hope at all, what you need to do is drag the time.
Even if there were no reinforcements at all, you should delay the time.
The longer the battle went on, the higher the probability of the change in the situation would be. If the result was determined with one move, even if there were reinforcements, it would be too late!
Right now, this was what the two were doing.
Though they were all alone and helpless, they were going to fight on until the last moment!
A figure shot and a ray of sword light flashed like lightning, accompanied by a cold yell. “Rui Butong! Come for your death!”
Rui Butong raised his hand and blocked out the longsword with a snap. His body flew out obliquely; he laughed out loud. “So there is someone with a penis in the Xiao Clan after all. Let me check if it’s a woman dressed in men’s clothing!”
Suddenly, a cold light burst out from his dagger. It went right toward the lower body, straight to the crotch!
Xiao Changhe yelled aloud, his legs crossed, and the longsword flew over like a roaring river toward Rui Butong. The two rolled together like a ball.
The cultivation of the two was almost exactly the same.
At this moment, Xiao Changhe’s countless years of fighting experience became particularly important.
Xiao Wufeng also narrowed his eyes and looked attentively.
On the one hand, promising to fight alone was because of the provocation of Rui Butong; on the other hand, it was also a foolproof move at the moment! According to the news, the Moon Breeze duo was still in the Flat Mountain Ridge, whereas Wu Juecheng had reached the northwest…
There was no more power nearby to control the battle situation!
In this case, he might as well observe the martial force of these two young people — He heard that the strength of Chu Yang was about the same as the two of them…
This would lay a foundation for the future.
There were endless bangs in the field, and two figures flew around in the field like ghosts. It could be clearly seen that Rui Butong had been slowly forced into an inferior position…
The 60% offensive was already in the hands of Xiao Changhe. This was getting closer to a victory!
If the offensive and defensive ratio exceeded 80%, it would be a victory.
Mo Lei’er had been standing behind Dong Wushang. When Rui Butong was fighting, Mo Lei’er, looking as if she was scared, took another step toward the space behind Dong Wushang.
No one paid attention to this tiny detail.
At last, Rui Butong shouted, “F*ck, I’m so mad! I’m going down with you!”
Everyone’s eyes were simultaneously focused on the battlefield.
Rui Butong shouted, and the dagger in his hand hurriedly mobilized his martial power. The dagger suddenly fired a thousand colorful rays of sword energy that rushed past.
‘We won!’
Everyone from the Xiao Clan felt a sense of joy in their heart.
It was clearly a desperate move for Rui Butong! Moreover, when the battle situation was against him, he exposed not only one or two, but four or five fatal weak points!
One move could easily strike the longsword anywhere on his body!
Xiao Changhe in the battle naturally understood this better than anyone. There was a slight smile on his face, and the long sword moved towards Rui Butong’s short sword.
After the sword was blocked, the longsword could pierce Rui Butong’s heart easily! Yet he did not want to do this but made up his mind — First he’ll cut off the boy’s tongue!
Two swords, one long and one short, were slashed together in the air, living up to expectations!
At this moment, something unexpected suddenly happened!
Silently, the longsword in Xiao Changhe’s hands abruptly split into two pieces, like a piece of tofu!
The scene was like a mime — Amongst the cheers of the Xiao Clan, with Xiao Changhe full of confidence, even the position of his feet beginning to change and his toes beginning to shift outwards to prepare to send out the longsword after the bang!
But at this moment, the longsword suddenly broke into two pieces! The upper half was detached, turning in circles in the air, reflecting the fire on the side of the field, looking sumptuous.
Xiao Changhe didn’t even have time to react. After the collision, although his hand felt light, he still followed the original plan, shook his wrist, raised his sword, and slashed toward Rui Butong’s mouth.
If the other half of the sword was still there, this sword would have definitely cut Rui Butong’s tongue.
But now, it stopped half a foot away from Rui Butong’s mouth; Xiao Changhe felt chilliness in his chest.
Then he felt himself flying.
He did fly up but still had his sword in his hand; and with a whistling sound, he went into mid-air.
But only half of his body!
Just now when the longsword was broken, Rui Butong didn’t give anyone the opportunity to react but ruthlessly slashed his sword down, cutting the body of Xiao Changhe into two!
Blood spurted out!
Everyone was stunned at the same time!
It was in such an instant that the almost confirmed victory became a loss, taking the life of Xiao Changhe!
With a bang, Xiao Changhe fell to the ground solidly. Only then did he let out a scream. “Ah~~~ What’s going on!”
Rui Butong gasped and said quietly, “Nothing is going on, it’s just that my short sword is a special one that cuts iron as though it is soft as mud! That’s all.”
Xiao Changhe’s half-body lay on the ground, staring helplessly at Rui Butong. He said with hatred, “You… are despicable!”
“I admit I’m despicable!” The corner of Rui Butong’s mouth twisted. “Even more, I admit that you are noble and fair! You take advantage of your numbers, conspire to ambush ahead of time and kidnap a little girl, it’s very noble! It’s bright and honest! I admire you, you’re such a saint…”
Xiao Changhe screamed, and there was suddenly no sound anymore. He finally died.
There was only a stretch of silence.
Xiao Wufeng looked at Rui Butong, his eyes full of murderous intent. He said coldly, “Such a sharp weapon!”
Rui Butong smiled. “Actually, I just wanted to drag a person down with me to die, now I’ve done it! Even if I were to die, I would not regret it.”
Xiao Wufeng nodded slowly. “Very good!”
Rui Butong said, “Even though you say it’s very good, aren’t you gonna send another person out for me to kill? Hey, is there anyone else with balls among you all? Are you a man? Come! Fight me to the death!”
Xiao Wufeng’s look was cold. He waved. “Go on together, chop his body into a million pieces!”
With a cry, experts of the Xiao Clan rushed over from all directions!
