Chapter 372: The Battle of the Top Scorer, Letting Xixi Have Fun (Part 2)
Chapter 372: The Battle of the Top Scorer, Letting Xixi Have Fun (Part 2)
So, the children didn't care how Xixi achieved victory!
Even Lu Tai Bai couldn't help but smile.
"Hahaha! Well done, young lady! Your mechanical skills have a touch of Ma Mian's style."
Lu Tai Bai laughed heartily and took a swig from his wine gourd, feeling exhilarated.
He turned to look at Li Che, his eyes bright, "Ah Che, did you plan this? I heard that the lords of the Underworld favor Xixi, and Niu Mo is Xixi's unofficial master... It seems to be true."
"Is this Ma Mian's mechanical skill?" Lu Tai Bai asked with a smile.
Li Che smiled gently, nodding.
Beside him, Zhang Ya was excited, her face flushed, and she tightly held Li Che's arm.
"Husband! Xixi won! Xixi won! Xixi advanced to the top of the Young Dragon Competition! Our daughter is so amazing!"
Zhang Ya was overjoyed.
She knew that their daughter and her husband had worked so hard for her.
"Don't worry, for the final battle, I have something big planned for Xixi..."
"Xixi is only six years old, and her strength is still not on par with the older kids. Even Zhang Yunlong is already thirteen... If Xixi were thirteen, what could Zhang Yunlong do? Even the disciples of the Purple Mansion Divine Sect wouldn't stand a chance."
Li Che smiled faintly, unconcerned.
"Xixi is only seven, is it too much for her to use some mechanical skills?"
"This competition is purely for Xixi to have fun and let her blow off some steam."
Li Che was indulgent.
Looking at Xixi with her hands on her chest, her twin braids standing tall, and her proud demeanor, Li Che couldn't help but smile.
After Xixi returned, she rushed over, feeling a bit sore.
"Father, Mother! A 7,000-year-old peach! Xixi almost couldn't resist... It smells so good, but I couldn't eat it."
Xixi's eyes were filled with regret and pain.
However, to participate in the final battle, Xixi sacrificed the 7,000-year-old peach.
Li Che rubbed Xixi's head, "Don't worry, I'll take you to pick some later."
"Huh?" Xixi tilted her head.
What was her father talking about?
These peaches were in the mysterious temple of the Queen Mother of the West, who held the Sanqing position. They couldn't just be picked as he said.
Xixi took his words as comfort.
After resting in the main banquet area, Xixi was surrounded by children, and she proudly raised her head, basking in their compliments and praise.
At such a young age, her vanity was inflated beyond what was appropriate for her age!
However, the children's cheers didn't last long.
They quieted down and turned to look towards the center of the Jade Square, where a young Taoist priest in a green robe was walking, his steps resonating like the drums of a giant god.
The young priest carried a peach wood sword case, with a wooden stick holding his topknot. His eyes, filled with disdain and coldness, fixed on Xixi's direction.
Everyone knew that this young priest from the Purple Mansion Divine Sect was waiting for Xixi.
He wanted to compete with Xixi for the final battle, the Young Dragon Competition's top spot, and for the 9,000-year-old peach's ownership!
Xixi didn't give up; she chose to continue the challenge, so there would be another battle.
"Let him wait!"
However, Xixi didn't let Zhang Yunlong's pace affect her.
Numerous children gathered together, laughing and chatting.
Zhang Yunlong stood in the rain, the raindrops falling continuously, manipulated by his primordial spirit, forming a water dragon coiled around him. His eyes turned cold.
"You're ignoring me?"
Zhang Yunlong had thought that Xixi would come to greet him as soon as she saw him, but to his surprise, Xixi completely ignored him, which made Zhang Yunlong feel infuriated.
"Well... if that's the case, you can wait..."
Zhang Yunlong stood with his hands behind his back, countless raindrops falling from the sky, swirling around him as if merging with the water dragon, following his aura.
Li Nuanxi would wait...
He would wait until his aura reached an extremely terrifying height!
...
...
Zhenwu Divine Sect, main banquet area.
Shi Ming, Shi Xuan, and other young dragons clenched their fists, excitedly cheering.
Even Shi Xuan, who had just suffered a serious injury, had bright eyes and was thrilled!
Zhenwu Divine Sect's leader, Shi Jian, had eyes as bright as two blazing suns, shining brilliantly!
Xixi's mechanism...
That mechanism!
It was the perfect divine archer!
This thing was even more threatening than the divine archer, and the divine archer required diligent and hard training, but with this mechanism, one could perform it after simple training...
If one could have an army holding such a mechanism...
How terrifying would that be?!
Even the top Three Flower Grand Masters would have nowhere to hide, and they would be swept away.
Even a Martial Saint would likely be suppressed by this army's firepower!
Shi Jian was extremely excited; as a veteran general, he vaguely imagined the terrifying cavalry of the Dali King's Court, their dominance across the desert, and their collapse when faced with this mechanism's barrage!
After all, the Jiao horses couldn't move as nimbly as the martial artists, so the cavalry riding the Jiao horses would be the perfect targets!
Zhenwu Divine Sect's leader, Shi Jian, rubbed his hands, his mouth dry. Even a powerful man like him couldn't help but have sweat beads forming in his palms.
"How should I ask for it?"
"I'm really sorry about this."
Shi Jian rubbed his buzz cut, muttering to himself.
Li Che had promised to support them with the Xian Gong Gatling, and now Shi Jian had also set his sights on this mechanism...
Would this give Li Bansheng the impression that he was being unfaithful?
As Shi Jian hesitated, the entire Second City of the Divine Capital was in an uproar. The crowd of martial artists on the city walls and below were stunned, frozen like wooden chickens. Who would have thought that Li Nuanxi could win, and with mechanism techniques, no less!
The once-popular Tang Clan mechanisms had once swept through the Great Jing.
But now, the Tang Clan mechanisms had long faded, and no one could have imagined that in this Young Dragon Victory Assembly, mechanism techniques would make a comeback!
The news spread like a flood, throughout the nine cities of the Divine Capital.
The gambling houses went crazy, completely insane...
And when they heard that Xixi would participate in the final round of the Young Dragon Victory Assembly, competing with the first young dragon of the Purple Mansion Divine Sect for the title of Young Dragon Champion, the gambling houses went even more insane!
...
...
Buzzing...
Two divine auras soared through the rain, intertwining.
Finally, they collided!
The divine auras exploded, unfolding like a scroll, revealing Xixi's adorable dimples.
Another divine aura trembled in mid-air, also unfolding like a scroll.
Zhang Yunlong leaned on his peach wood sword, his figure overlooking the world.
The purple-robed Daoist Lian Gong Gong entered gracefully, the rain around him distorted.
This time, the purple-robed Daoist bowed slightly towards the banquet tables inside the tent, and then bowed towards the Emperor and Empress.
The Emperor's face was obscured by divine aura and blood energy, making it impossible to discern his emotions.
But the Empress, with her noble and elegant demeanor, smiled warmly.
Her exquisite face showed a hint of a smile.
"I, the Empress, will host this Pan-Peach Victory Assembly, which includes the Young Dragon Victory Assembly and the Hero Victory Assembly. The winners of this assembly will receive a nine-thousand-year-old pan-peach personally picked by me from the strange peach tree in the strange temple of the Queen Mother of the West."
The Empress's voice was clear.
Then, she gently opened her palm.
On her palm, a branch of a pan-peach appeared, with alternating green and pink colors, each peach hair seemed to glow with divine energy, and exuded an extremely rich essence, divine aura, and spirituality!
This pan-peach seemed to have a lively spirit, like a living being!
The pan-peach radiated a brilliant light, filling the world with a rich peach fragrance, making people's mouths water.
"This nine-thousand-year-old pan-peach is here, whoever wins the championship can come to me and take this pan-peach."
The Empress smiled gracefully.
"The final round of the Young Dragon Victory Assembly, the battle for the championship."
"Begin."
As the words fell,
In the Jade Square, an overwhelming aura surged.
Zhang Yunlong's eyes shone with brilliant light, the water dragon rose higher, gathering the rain, reaching a height of ten zhang, and coiling around him.
"The nine-thousand-year-old pan-peach... My temple deity has been longing for it. I, Zhang Yunlong, will take this pan-peach."
Zhang Yunlong smiled faintly.
His gaze fell on Xixi.
"Li Nuanxi, let me see what kind of monster you have inside you..."
Even the Empress spoke.
Xixi didn't hesitate, standing up, sparks erupting from her feet, and the Hell Lotus Windfire Golden Light Wheels burst forth.
Lixi stared at Zhang Yunlong, her anger rising as she recalled his relentless and merciless attack on Shi Xuan. Shi Xuan, unwilling to resort to mutual destruction, had spared the people within the Great Jing territory, but Zhang Yunlong was forcing Shi Xuan to unleash his full power.
"Why don't you just fly up to the heavens?" Lixi turned to Li Che.
"Father!"
Li Che paused, then smiled, "Of course, I did say that this Nine Thousand-Year Peach Festival is for you to enjoy and set off fireworks as you please. I won't stop you."
"I just want you to have fun and leave no regrets."
Lixi's face lit up with an ecstatic smile, her dimples deepening.
"Father, you're the best!"
"I love you, Father!"
As she finished speaking, Lixi stomped her foot, and the Prison Lotus Windfire Golden Light Wheels beneath her started spinning rapidly, roaring as they lifted her into the air, hovering above the Jade Square. The scorching heat evaporated the rain, creating a misty cloud beneath her, as if she were standing on a celestial cloud, overlooking the square below.
The purple-clad Lian Gonggong looked up at Lixi and clapped his hands, causing him to disappear from the square.
A faint smile appeared on Zhang Yunlong's face.
"Finally... it begins."
He then saw Lixi, standing on the Prison Lotus Windfire Golden Light Wheels, ascending rapidly into the clouds.
"Using the same mechanism again?"
"Do you think you can defeat me with the same trick?"
"Zhang Yunhu suffered a loss from your mechanism, but I'm not Zhang Yunhu."
Zhang Yunlong removed the sword sheath from his back and flicked his fingers.
A palm-sized sword spun and howled, its tip aimed at Lixi in mid-air. Under Zhang Yunlong's control, it tore through the clouds and air, speeding towards Lixi.
However, Lixi, standing on the Prison Lotus Windfire Golden Light Wheels, rose higher and higher, causing the sword that could have pierced Shi Xuan with its incredible speed to now leave a visible trail.
With the distance between them, the sword couldn't reach its target as quickly.
At a thousand zhan altitude, Lixi's clothes fluttered in the wind, and the rain behind her roared.
She stomped her feet, and two Prison Lotus Windfire Golden Light Wheels spun wildly beneath her.
But the next moment, they suddenly descended.
Because...
On top of the Prison Lotus Windfire Golden Light Wheels, a massive object appeared in mid-air!
It was a colossal construct, assembled from tens of thousands of intricately crafted wooden parts.
The sound of rumbling filled the air as an eight-meter-wide lotus platform emerged high in the sky.
Held aloft by the Prison Lotus Windfire Golden Light Wheels, countless raindrops struck the platform, only to be instantly evaporated by the scorching heat.
Beneath the lotus platform, thousands of tiny wheels spun in all directions under Lixi's control.
A gigantic wooden sculpture of Guanyin sat atop the platform, her hands folded in her lap, a serene expression on her face, and a thousand arms intricately intertwined.
The Fire God's Furious Dragon Thousand-Armed Guanyin!
As the sword aura howled towards Lixi, she grunted and shook her right hand, slamming a golden brick down.
The sword manipulated by Zhang Yunlong lost its divine glow, and Lixi stood behind the Thousand-Armed Guanyin on the lotus platform.
Lixi's consciousness surged, and her body trembled with excitement. Her hands shook with exhilaration.
She was thrilled, overjoyed, as if she were living a dream! Lixi never imagined...
She would have the chance...
To set off such a grand firework display! Thank you, Zhang Yunlong, Father, and everyone...
Lixi's face blossomed with an uncontrollable smile.
"Fireworks—let's go! I want to see the grandest fireworks!"
Lixi slapped a button.
At a thousand zhan altitude, the Thousand-Armed Guanyin, with its serene expression, hovered over the Jade Square, gazing down at Zhang Yunlong.
With a series of clacking sounds, the thousand arms intertwined, forming a circle!
It was like preparing to fire an energy cannon, creating the Thousand-Armed Guanyin Fire Cannon!
A black and white ball, the size of a soccer ball, was thrown by Lixi.
As it was thrown, a loud splash echoed.
Lixi's eyes burst with dazzling golden light, and in an instant...
Her eyes filled with brilliance!
"Fire the cannon——!!!"
...
...
On the Jade Square, Zhang Yunlong's eyebrows furrowed, surrounded by the water dragon. He sensed the sword he had sent into the sky...
Had lost connection, as if someone had severed its link with his spiritual consciousness.
Zhang Yunlong took a step forward, standing on the water dragon, attempting to ascend.
After rushing a hundred zhan, an intense feeling of unease enveloped Zhang Yunlong. He raised his head, and his long hair, freed from its constraints, danced wildly in the wind.
He looked up, but couldn't feel the spring rain that filled the heavens...
The rain seemed to have stopped!
Suddenly, he narrowed his eyes, and the rising steam was torn apart...
And then...
Brilliant light erupted, emitting countless rays!
It was dazzling, radiant, and eye-catching, like a proud sun...
Falling from the sky!
The second chapter is finally here! I've been eager to write a scene where Lixi sets off grand fireworks, and now I've found the perfect opportunity. Please support with monthly votes, recommendations, and continued reading! Let's continue the adventure tomorrow! Thank you!
