Chapter 1256 - Gentlemanly Demeanor

The moment they exchanged blows, Guitian Danteng immediately realized that this Nine Nether Fourteenth Young Master who should have lost eighty percent of his strength and was severely injured seemed completely unhurt. Not only did all of his injuries vanish, his strength was not depleted the slightest. This terrifying fact made Guitian Danteng who had his mind full of picking on an advantage feel extremely dejected.

“Idiot!” Meiwei Liangqiang roared furiously. “This is a coincidence! It’s purely coincidence!”

“Pfft. Purely coincidence! Then what about this time? Is it still merely a coincidence?” Jun Moxie asked.

Meiwei Liangqiang instantly detected something amiss and looked up. To his horror, the entire sky was filled with that purple light from the bolts of a lightning tribulation, the thickness of a house! And the quantity this time was ten folds the previous round!

A total of a thousand lightning bolts were all gathering above his head!

And the most dreadful thing was that the lightning tribulation showed no signs of stopping! Crashing straight down!

One after another! At Meiwei Liangqiang!

This terrifying might made Meiwei Liangqiang suddenly recall that Heavenly Tribulation he had suffered when he entered the stages of a Half-Sage! It was even more intense than the one back then! And he still remembered how he almost died back then…

Amidst his cry of horror, Meiwei Liangqiang didn’t have any time to consider. He rapidly channeled all his skills to take on the impact of the lightning tribulation!

On the other side, Guitian Danteng shouted in exasperation: “You! You! Lord Meiwei! Why do you still say that you’re not going through your tribulation! This… What is this? I, I… You’ve really done me in this time! It’s not difficult for you to delay this tribulation with your cultivation… Yet, you did this… What do you mean by this?”

They were puzzled, gloomy and depressed…

It’s just that no matter how puzzled and depressed they were, if someone told them that this lightning tribulation was actually caused by that pretty boy in front of them, they wouldn’t believe it!

Another violent round of purple lightning came crashing down!

The might of the previous round with a hundred bolts of lightning was already considerably frightening. Just the sound of it alone could compare with the might of a Half-Sage tribulation. But the might of the lightning tribulation this time was a whole new level! Impossible to be compared!

Even Jun Moxie himself didn’t expect the Power of Lightning to be this powerful! Even though the Hongjun Pagoda had absorbed an enormous amount of the Power of Lightning, those were merely the lightning tribulations of Venerables and Saints!

At most, there was a portion of lightning tribulations that belonged to Saint Emperors. Only a minority was that of Saint Venerables. And the tribulations of the higher levels, the Half-Sage realm only belonged to Young Master Jun and Mei Xueyan. Even the might of their Half-Sage lightning tribulation wasn’t this violent.

And from Meiwei Liangqiang’s reaction, Young Master Jun could tell that the might of these lightning had surpassed the intensity of his previous Half-Sage tribulation. This was a huge surprise to Young Master Jun!

Could it be that the Hongjun Pagoda also had the magical abilities to purify the Power of Lightning?

Of course, the Hongjun Pagoda was a profound mystery, so it wasn’t not too surprising for it to have this sort of capability. But Young Master Jun didn’t have the time to consider this. He only put all his focus on controlling every single strike of the Power of Lightning to come crashing down accurately!

With every single wave of lightning Young Master Jun controlled, he found out an interesting fact. Meiwei Liangqiang had completely taken the lightning bolts as a real lightning tribulation and did not put up any resistance or attempt to dodge it! Only enduring it all!

Jun Moxie was having a great time with him being this cooperative.

Actually, Meiwei Liangqiang couldn’t be blamed for his behavior. Heavenly tribulations were always locked on the person undergoing it; this had always been the case. There was no difference in dodging it or not, and no exception to this. Even if the person managed to duck a few rounds, the ones subsequently would be multiple folds in intensity. And as to striking back… that was complete nonsense. Striking back? Striking back at a lightning tribulation? You must have hit your head against the door or something. Can you strike back at that sort of thing?

Meiwei Liangqiang had gone through numerous Heavenly Tribulations in his entire lifetime, so naturally he was well aware of this. And with this fixed style of thinking, he gritted his teeth, channelled all his strength to take on this sudden heavenly might!

He stole a glance only to see Jun Moxie standing silently on the side. To think that Jun Moxie didn’t attack him while he was down. He couldn’t help but feel full of praise and disdain.

How would he know that Young Master Jun wasn’t not attacking out of propriety and integrity. He was just truly completely focused on controlling the concentrated and intense Power of Lightning to fry him and didn’t have the time, ah…

After all, Jun Moxie had just began to master the Power of Lightning. How could he be as accurate as a Heavenly Tribulation when wielding it? It may be powerful and mighty, but if Meiwei Liangqiang truly intended to avoid it, this Power of Lightning may not even touch him…

If he was slightly distracted, the lightning would strike wrongly…

Thus, he must carefully put all his focus in controlling it. It wasn’t because he didn’t wish to attack him…

In fact, Jun Moxie was actually attacking him at full power. It’s just that this great expert Meiwei Liangqiang wasn’t aware of it, that’s all…

This wave of over a thousand earth shattering purple lightning finally finished striking.

Meiwei Liangqiang was at his last gasp, lying in a huge pit that was a thousand zhang deep and wide. His entire body convulsed, as black smoke rose from every single part of his body. The air was filled with the thick smell of charred meat…

Jun Moxie hovered in the air above Meiwei Liangqiang and said, “The Almighty Senior of the Outsiders, please get up and fight with me. We shall fight fairly and let Heavens decide who is the victor!”

Meiwei Liangqiang rolled his eyes upon hearing this, almost spitting blood!

“Lord Jun…” Meiwei Liangqiang lifted his head with great difficulty and said. “This Seat had just undergone the Heavenly Tribulation. Since Lord Jun had the gentlemanly demeanor to not take advantage of someone when he is down, I’m grateful. Then, may Lord Jun allow this Seat to rest for a while to catch his breath. Then, it wouldn’t let the battle between us Half-Sages down.”

“That’s right! Lord Jun had upholded the open and candid nature of the people from the Xuan Xuan Continent earlier when I was going through my Heavenly Tribulation, watching on from the sides with no intention to take advantage of someone while he was down. This sort of open and honest demeanor is truly incomparable. We may be enemies, but this Seat will not forget this.” Meiwei Liangqiang hurriedly said with utmost sincerity.

“F*ck! So that’s what it was!” Jun Moxie snickered devilishly. “So you’re saying that, you want me to continue maintaining this gentlemanly demeanor that people of the Xuan Xuan Continent have?”
