Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 223 Crazy Fishing

Mo Ya’s face was blank, as he turned into a human amplifier?

At this moment, he was tied to a big tree by Xu Ping’an, and a Sensing Conch was stuffed into his mouth, which made it impossible for him to speak.

Meanwhile, Xu Ping’an punched him in the abdomen, then ran away and hid in the shadows.

The True Yuan inside Mo Ya rushed uncontrollably toward his mouth.

The next moment, the Jade Conch suddenly emitted a wave of energy that quickly spread in all directions.

This punch, though mixed with Xu Ping’an’s aberrant True Yuan, was mostly Mo Ya’s own True Yuan.

As the waves spread, people within a thousand miles instantly perceived it and looked in Xu Ping’an’s direction.

Some hesitated for a moment but still headed towards where Xu Ping’an was.

Mo Ya struggled against the tree trunk but couldn’t break free from Xu Ping’an’s restraints.

He never anticipated that Xu Ping’an would do such a thing.

This was probably the most shameful moment of his life, so shameful that he wished he could just stab himself to put an end to it all.

Turned into a human megaphone?

Outside, many people were also drawn to the spectacle, watching Mo Ya in stunned silence.

The elders of the Haiyun Sect were also dumbfounded at this moment.

Is this their sect’s genius?

Get lost!

We don’t recognize him.

Our sect does not harbor such a disgraceful fellow.

"A genius indeed, to come up with such a scheme, now many people around are flocking that way; this guy is fishing for opponents," laughed many in the crowd.

Truly a genius, his method actually worked.

In the spectator stands, Song Lingxue almost laughed until she cried.

An idea so whimsical, perhaps only her master could have come up with it.

On the high platform, those at the Seventh and Eighth Ranks, who were originally focusing on the top geniuses, were now captivated by the commotion at Xu Ping’an’s side.

It must be said, this guy’s actions were indeed very eye-catching.

"Interesting, clever, this way there’s no need to search everywhere for opponents, indeed saves a lot of trouble," chuckled the national general.

Many at the Seventh Rank couldn’t help but nod in agreement.

"Hmph, just taking a shortcut. Didn’t we choose the Holy Heaven Secret Realm to test these guys’ perception abilities, to mimic a real battlefield? This is against the rules; his qualification should be revoked," Martial King snorted coldly.

On a real battlefield, you don’t know where the enemy is, where they might appear.

That was their original purpose.

"Martial King, you’re being too serious. On the battlefield, you have to use your brain, not just act recklessly. Fishing for opponents is also a skill," the national general said with a laugh.

There was an implied meaning in his words.

"Hmph, the Sensing Conch should never have been allowed in the first place. Now he has trapped his opponent, yet he doesn’t kill; it’s humiliation. Using this method is cheating, not his real ability," continued Martial King, with a cold huff.

"Alright, his actions are within the rules. He can fish for opponents, but he needs the strength to back it up, otherwise, if he attracts stronger foes, it’s playing with fire. So, you two need not argue any further," Sovereign of Great Qin said with a smile.

These two always bickered upon meeting, and if he allowed them to continue, they might just end up fighting.

As for Xu Ping’an, in his view, the boy was just a little cunning.

The world was never short of clever people.

The Sovereign of Great Qin had also noticed Xu Ping’an’s immense physical strength.

Physical Strength?

A minor trick; true power lies in the Laws of Heaven and Earth, that is the righteous path.

For he knew, there were limits to the physical body.

After reaching the Ninth Rank, the physical body can no longer become stronger.

So, from their perspective, Xu Ping’an’s physical strength was not surprising.

Of course, Xu Ping’an was also a genius, he admitted that, but not to the point of astonishment.

Xu Ping’an was unaware that his actions had attracted so much attention from the outside.

At this moment, he lay low on the side because he had already felt someone nearing.

"Swoosh!"

Indeed, a figure broke through and appeared.

Near Mo Ya, the person looked over in surprise at Mo Ya.

What’s going on?

"Mmm mmm..."

Mo Ya attempted to struggle, to warn the newcomer.

The person had the same Cultivation as him, also at the Fourth Rank Eighth Layer.

But it was already too late; Xu Ping’an appeared behind the figure in an instant, punching out.

The next moment, the figure was directly blown apart.

Mo Ya was dumbfounded.

So strong.

He had now witnessed Xu Ping’an’s strength with his own eyes.

This punch, at the very least, had the power of the Fifth Rank Second Layer.

A Fourth Rank Eighth Layer was directly blown apart.

Doesn’t that mean he himself was also just a punch away from the same fate?

Outside, many people were also shocked.

Such strong physical strength! They hadn’t seen Xu Ping’an use any True Yuan.

And the opponent was blown apart just like that?

Xu Ping’an looked at the number on his palm turn to five and a smile crossed his face.

Then he reappeared in front of Mo Ya, punched him in the abdomen once more, then disappeared again.

Mo Ya broke down completely.

He had become a tool now?

Could it be that I’ll be tied up here for ten days?

He glanced at Xu Ping’an, who he knew was hiding somewhere around, and thoughts of wanting to die crept into his mind.

This guy might really be capable of doing it.

It wasn’t long before another person appeared.

Xu Ping’an did as before, punching the newcomer to a pulp.

As long as they weren’t Fifth Rank, they simply couldn’t withstand his punch.

With each kill, Xu Ping’an would strike the gong once.

In just the time it took for an incense stick to burn, Xu Ping’an had already killed a total of seven people.

After one Hour, Xu Ping’an had accumulated twenty kills.

Mo Ya was utterly in despair.

This guy was too strong.

Now he didn’t even seek to escape, he just hoped someone would come and kill Xu Ping’an, and then kill him too, to put him out of his misery.

But as an Hour passed, not a single person could take down Xu Ping’an.

Of course, these people were Fourth Rank, sooner or later a Fifth Rank would come.

"I can wait! Once a Fifth Rank arrives, I’ll be set free," Mo Ya reminded himself.

At the exact moment Mo Ya was mentally calling out, a figure swooped in.

Seeing the newcomer, Mo Ya’s face broke into wild joy.

They’ve come!

Fifth Rank!

And not just any ordinary Fifth Rank.

It was the second disciple of Tiancang Pavilion, Chen Yan.

This guy was at the peak of the Fifth Rank First Layer Realm.

Even if he couldn’t kill Xu Ping’an, at least he could hold him off, and sooner or later someone else would come.

Then he could be freed.

Externally, quite a few people saw this unfold, each one surprised.

Chen Yan has appeared?

Is the fishing over?

On the high platform, many people were paying attention.

With Chen Yan here, could this guy still be killed?

In that moment, Chen Yan also looked at Mo Ya with a puzzled face.

Why was this guy tied to a tree with something in his mouth, looking at him and grinning foolishly?

Could it be a trap?

Suddenly, Chen Yan felt an ominous sensation.

He immediately turned and struck out behind him.

"Clang!"

His punch landed on something incredibly hard.

A shield?

Before he had time to think further, the opponent swiftly swung the shield, smashing it down directly at him.

Chen Yan was startled and tried to defend himself.

However, the force of the shield was much greater than he had imagined.

"Boom!"

There was a loud crash.

Chen Yan’s figure was flattened into a pulp by the shield, sent flying backward at high speed, dead on the spot.

Mo Ya, who had been full of anticipation, was now frozen with a smile on his face, the look of utter despair.

Dead?

The peak of the Fifth Rank First Layer, just like that, dead?

With a shield?

Just how strong is this guy?

Externally, everyone was dumbstruck.

So strong, just slapped to death a Fifth Rank First Layer with a shield?

That must be a Superior Grade Spiritual Artifact shield, right?

Can a shield even be used like that?

At the same time, on the Holy Battlefield.

Chen Yan appeared outside, looking dazed. Just a moment ago, it seemed like he had died.

Slapped to death by a shield?

He didn’t even get a clear look at his opponent’s face before being killed?

He couldn’t help but look around and saw more than a dozen others looking at him strangely.

That look, relief!

Yes, relief.

See, even the Fifth Rank Chen Yan got slapped to death with a shield. It’s only normal for them, who were Fourth Rank, to be blown away with a punch, right?

Chen Yan, still bewildered, looked up at the painting in the sky.

And the scene before him left him dumbfounded again.

Xu Ping’an struck the gong again, attracting someone new; as soon as the person showed up, they were killed by Xu Ping’an with a shield.

This person was also a Fifth Rank First Layer.

The next moment, this person too appeared on the Holy Battlefield, equally bemused.

And so, Chen Yan joined the ranks of the relieved.

It seems I wasn’t the only Fifth Rank to be deceived.
