105: Chapter 105 Xia Jin arrives just in time, triggering a new mission!

Xia Jin swept his gaze over the tragic state of the Yuehua Imperial Capital below, unable to help but frown.

He then began to carefully examine the three figures before him.

"The scorching sun of the Central Region, the destruction of the Great Qian Dynasty... It seems this was the 'handiwork' of you three."

His voice was extremely calm, revealing neither joy nor anger.

Upon hearing Xia Jin's words, Elder Mo Ya let out a cackling laugh: "What's this, kid? Judging by your stance, are you looking to seek justice for those trash who have been turned into blood food?"

"Revenge!?" Xia Jin shook his head, the corners of his mouth lifting slightly: "What does their life or death have to do with me?"

"Hm!?" Elder Mo Ya was slightly stunned, a flash of surprise crossing his eyes. This indifferent tone that viewed thousands of living beings as mere grass... why did it feel like they were the same type of person?

"However," Xia Jin paused, an invisible pressure quietly spreading and enveloping the sky above the entire Yuehua Imperial Capital, "this Eastern Region is territory I have marked out. Who gave you permission... to stretch your claws over here?"

"Since you have stretched them out, then be prepared... to have them severed."

Hei Tu's expression suddenly turned somewhat strange, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world, and he burst into belly-shaking laughter: "Hahaha! Good! Good kid! You're arrogant enough! It's been a long time since this lord has met someone so interesting!"

"State your name! When I tear you apart in a moment, if I'm in a good mood, I might just erect a tombstone for you!!!"

Xia Jin slowly reached behind his back and drew a long saber.

He gently wiped the blade, his gaze remaining locked on the three people in front of him.

"You want me to state my name?" Xia Jin's voice held a hint of playfulness, "Unfortunately, based on just you few, you are not qualified to know my name."

"However, my blade does not slay nameless nobodies. The three of you may state your own names. Perhaps, if you die here today, I will still remember you many years from now."

"Hahahaha!! You really are arrogant enough!!" Hei Tu grinned, revealing a mouthful of ghastly white teeth, while a fierce light flashed in his eyes: "Kid, listen well. In those years, those who knew our names basically all became our blood food! The world once called us—the 'Ten Fierce Generals'!"

"As for what the three of us are called... wait until I beat you to the ground in a moment and dismantle your bones, then I'll tell you slowly; it won't be too late for you to be an enlightened ghost!"

"'Ten Fierce Generals'?" Xia Jin's hand, which had been wiping the blade, paused slightly.

At that very moment, the System prompt sounded in his mind again!

[Ding! Key information 'Ten Fierce Generals' detected... Information matching... Match successful!]

[Triggered Choice Task: National Crisis!]

[Task 1: Force back the three among the 'Ten Fierce Generals': White Luan, Hei Tu, and Elder Mo Ya. Reward: 1,500 years of cultivation!]

[Task 2: Slay the three among the 'Ten Fierce Generals': White Luan, Hei Tu, and Elder Mo Ya. Reward: Three Feet to the Horizon (Entry-Level), 3,000 years of cultivation!]

"Hm!? These three guys actually triggered System rewards!?" Xia Jin's eyelids twitched involuntarily.

"However, is there something wrong with this task?" Xia Jin glanced at System Task 1, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes, "Just forcing them back can earn 1,500 years of cultivation?"

"There might only be one possibility for this situation... I fear their strength is far beyond what they are revealing right now?"

But just as Xia Jin was silent, Hei Tu could no longer suppress the Battle Intent on his body, turning his head to look at White Luan and Elder Mo Ya: "Big Sister, Old Ghost, this kid is interesting; leave him to me! It's been a long time since I've encountered a guy who could make me interested in making a move!"

White Luan cast a cold glance at Xia Jin without speaking, which counted as tacit consent.

Elder Mo Ya gave a sinister laugh: "Fatty, don't capsize in the gutter; I think this kid is a bit strange."

"Capsize? Just because of him? Old Ghost, are you underestimating me, or overestimating this kid!!?" Hei Tu laughed wildly, his massive, mountain-like body vanishing from the spot instantly!

Fast! Incredibly fast!

His massive frame actually possessed such terrifying speed.

Xia Jin only felt his vision blur before Hei Tu's fan-like right palm struck right in front of his face!

The palm wind caused the layer of clouds behind him to be blown away instantly, revealing the blue sky.

"You fatty are actually somewhat agile!" Xia Jin's eyes narrowed, but he did not panic.

His left hand's fingers closed together, and beneath his skin, a dark golden stream of light flashed and vanished; without dodging or avoiding, he went straight to meet it!

It was as if two divine mountains were colliding!

At the center of the fist and palm collision, a shockwave exploded, sweeping toward all directions like a world-destroying storm!

"Rumble!!!"

Below, the ruins of the Yuehua Imperial Capital suffered again.

With the area beneath the two as the center, the earth collapsed and cracked crazily, a massive crater rapidly spreading outward, and countless broken walls and ruins were pulverized by this power directly!

The already precarious imperial palace completely became a part of the dust.

Emperor Wei Cang and the others who had originally been watching from afar were now scared to the point of Soul Flying Away and Spirit Scattering; daring not to stay any longer, they hurriedly fled for their lives toward the distance.

High in the air, Xia Jin and Hei Tu maintained their posture of fist against palm, neither of them having retreated even half a step!

But the Void Realm beneath their feet could no longer withstand such terrifying power, and tiny spatial cracks, like spiderwebs, spread outward in all directions with the two of them as the center!

"Kid, you've got some strength!" A flash of surprise crossed Hei Tu's eyes; although he hadn't used his full strength in this palm, it was enough to crush the existence of an ordinary Land Immortal Realm, yet this guy known as the "Emperor of the Underworld" before him had actually taken it head-on with just his left hand.

A trace of surprise also flashed in Xia Jin's eyes; Hei Tu's Physical Body strength could be considered the strongest he had ever seen among the people he had met, apart from that black flood dragon.

"Damn fatty, you're not bad either." He responded coldly, though his tone held two parts more gravity.

"Hehehe, come again!" Hei Tu's wild nature flared up, his right palm suddenly withdrawing, followed immediately by a simpler and more brutal straight punch, blasting toward Xia Jin's chest!

Wherever the fist wind passed, the space was dragged into a long black trail!

How could Xia Jin show weakness? He also blasted out a punch!

It was another unadorned hard clash! This time, the exploding shockwave tore the surrounding spatial cracks even wider.

As a result, Hei Tu's mountain-like body swayed, and he retreated three steps back, "thud, thud, thud."

Whereas Xia Jin only slid back one step before stabilizing his figure.

This scene caused White Luan, who had been watching coldly from the sidelines, to slightly furrow her brows.

A trace of gravity flashed in her eyes: "Hei Tu's Physical Body, while not the strongest among the 'Ten Fierce Generals', is still in the top tier. Even if his strength hasn't recovered, ordinary people couldn't possibly contend with him in power... When did such a freak emerge in this Eastern Region?"

Hei Tu shook his somewhat numb fist; far from being angry, he instead let out an excited, wild laugh: "Good! Good! Good! Hahaha! Satisfying! Kid, you really didn't disappoint me!"

His eyes erupted with terrifying blood-red light, "This old man's body has been under a Seal for countless years and is almost rusted! Today, I can finally loosen up properly!"

As soon as his voice fell, Hei Tu took a deep breath!

This breath seemed to want to suck the air from a hundred miles around dry!

His fat body actually shrank at a speed visible to the naked eye!

In the blink of an eye, the fat Hei Tu disappeared, and in his place was a strong man with knotted muscles like cast black iron!

The Evil Qi radiating from his whole body was more than ten times stronger than before!

Just standing there gave people a sense of oppression as if he could tear the firmament apart with his bare hands!
