《Emperor’s Domination》Chapter 4138: Combatants' Arrival
Advertisement
“Clank!” A sword descended and was pinned on top of the peak. Murderous energies immediately swept the four directions like a tsunami.
“Oh, mother…” People became afraid while weaker cultivators were sent flying, injured.
They had already kept their distance at the start yet the energy waves still wounded them.
“Ninth!” When the waves dispersed, they saw someone standing on the peak.
Silence took over right away as people watched with bated breath.
Ninth had healed from his previous injuries due to Li Qiye. It seemed that his cultivation has improved as well.
He had the same air of indifference and emotionlessness, looking at the crowd as if they were nothing more than corpses.
“So that’s Ninth.” Everyone felt uncomfortable in his presence.
Those stronger still didn’t dare to underestimate him since his murderous aura was denser than that of an assassin. Being stronger or having a powerful background didn’t stop one from potentially being hunted by him.
Those who saw him for the first time today thought that he was worthy of his fame.
He was glaring intensely at Li Qiye. This prompted the crowd to think about a potential fight between these two.
Ninth nearly lost his life in the previous battle. Most would consider it humiliating and try to come up with a way to erase it.
However, Ninth showed no sign of emotion - no anger either towards Li Qiye. It looked as if he might have forgotten about their encounter.
“Not bad.” Li Qiye clapped and said: “Recovering and becoming stronger in such a short time. Your sword dao has improved as well. Such courage and spirit are admirable.”
Others thought that Li Qiye was fearless, daring to speak to Ninth in this manner. They thought that he was truly special and treated everyone the same way.

“Impressive indeed.” A big shot nodded in agreement.
Anyone else would be furious at Li Qiye right now for bringing up their defeat. It would be difficult to hide this emotion but Ninth had no fluctuations at all. Such mental control made him special.
“Has he improved more?” Others became afraid of Ninth’s incredible development. Even the Six Sect Masters and Six Kings were afraid of him now.
For example, Terra Sword Saint observed Ninth carefully with a serious expression, not daring to underestimate the enemy.
“No wonder why he managed to kill Wavesplitter Sovereign.” One ancestor said softly: “Few from the last generation can take him on in a one-on-one fight. If he makes it to the tenth variation, the Five Overlords will have no choice but to fight.”
“Really? His tenth variation is enough to fight them?” A junior became alarmed.
For the common cultivators, the Five Overlords stood at the apex in Sword Continent.
“Maybe, or at least it’ll be very close.” The ancestor responded: “Tenth is enough for him to do whatever he wants. Remember, the thirteenth killed a dao lord before.”
“So Pineleaf Sword Lord can’t win?” Friends of Wooden Sword became worried.
Ninth had proved his power to everyone. However, people feared him more than other experts such as the two saints. They felt as if he was death incarnate despite the fact that he wasn’t a mass murderer. There was just something about him that instilled a deep fear into everyone.
They knew that the situation was terrible for Pineleaf Sword Lord.
“The sword lord will fight no matter what.” An expert in the know sighed softly.
Pineleaf Sword Lord naturally wouldn’t run or refuse the challenge due to his reputation.
Ning Zhu quietly watched despite knowing the inevitable result. Alas, there was nothing she could do. Her master had the right to make his own decision.

The round moon was up high at this point. It was time.
“It’s starting soon. Where is Pineleaf Sword Lord though?” Some looked up at the moon.
“Buzz.” A majestic force answered them.
It wasn’t unbearable and didn’t send anyone flying. On the contrary, it was brimming with life force. This comfortable affinity seeped into the very core, causing the spectators to become entranced.
This life force had an unyielding nature just like a boulder at the bottom of the lake. Nothing could ever move it.
“He’s here.” People recognized the sword lord’s aura.
“Splash!” Water splashed violently.
People looked over and saw something moving at an incredible rate. From the reflection in the water, it resembled a green dragon crossing through Cloud Dream Lake.

The Bettor's Oath [A Dark-Modern LITRPG]
We live in a world where the rabbit’s foot helped win the game. Following that logic, tell me, what happens when the odds are flipped against the strong and a god rises to give the weak their right for revenge?~Last segment of the First Monarch's speech before the Lablanca battle. Lothar Ardolf, an alcoholic 27 years old high school teacher, was one of the many men who failed to catch up to life.When everyone around him worked to leave a mark behind, he idled away between states of short sobriety and static numbness, hoping that one day everything would resolve itself. It took little to wake him up. Only a life, soul, and body changing experience.Thrust into a world of cheap power and tyrannical governments, where a man could rival what is true and alter what is false, he was tasked by an elusive being with befalling titans.He wakes up in a prison with a path laid in front of him; one that would challenge all the resolve he has and more. Intertwined in a convoluted scheme of politics and old grudges, he will need to learn how to wield his new powers in order to escape before the secrets of the prison threaten to unravel him.However, he shortly realizes that his new faded fantasy was not a fairy tale. All that awaits him in the end, for standing against the world, is death. That is, if the three sided coin lands on heads. If it lands on tails... The shadowbane army rises. ...... This story is a neo-noir dark LITRPG in a world similar to earth. Take the tags seriously. I've been working on this project for 6 months and my MC is a bit unconventional, so I'm excited to introduce you all to him. Beware, it will be a slow-burn, so please be patient. The main plot will start to kick up at around chapter 15. I will be writing about racists, rapists, cultists and horrible humans. I do not condone or excuse their behavior or choice of words but the first arc will be in a prison and (some) prisoners don't mince their words. My MC doesn't adapt to the new world immediately because that is not realistic at all. It takes time and because of his personality, it will take more than a system to convince him to do someone else's bidding ;) Each chapter will have around 3000+ (give or take) words. I will be updating 2-3 times a week (depending on how busy I am with work and/or college) when I'm done publishing my backlog (Which is very big, 40,000+ words). **Each comment gets rep! Cover art by @tahraart on Instagram. Link to discord: https://youtu.be/91wX0NRjJqg Have a good one, Pistol. **** THE STORY IS ON TEMPORARY HIATUS. WE WILL BE BACK IN 2 MONTHS. SORRY EVERYONE.
