Chapter 275: The Strong Rule!
“Foolish brat. You have a death wish,” Fu Yu said coldly. He glanced over at Ye Chen, trying to scare Ye Chen and Little Wingsy.
Little Wingsy struggled to fly but was firmly kept in the water by Fu Yu’s pressure. An unyielding light shone in his eyes as he stared at Fu Yu in the sky.
“You’re being too cruel, Head Council Fu!” Seeing Little Wingsy being bullied, Ye Chen looked up at Fu Yu and clenched his fists. If he had the strength of a Godly Venerable One, he would have charged up to fight with Fu Yu already.
“In this world, the strong rule. With your strength, what can you do to stop me?” Fu Yu laughed coldly. Celestial Chi flowed around his body.
Fu Yu was not a Celestial Beast but a human. A Godly Venerable One! At Godly Venerable Rank,, one would have unimaginable power capable of overturning mountains and rivers. It was in a completely different realm from Mystique Venerable Rank. They represented the peak of power.
However, when it came to Peerless Power and Grand Supreme Rank, that was the true pinnacle of martial arts.
Those at Mystique Venerable Rank were like babies who had just learned how to use their strength in the eyes of Godly Venerable Rank combatants. Godly Venerable Ones could reduce them to ashes with just their fingertips.
If not for the fact that Fu Yu did not know how Ye Chen and Little Wingsy took down the Celestial Martial Chi and what background they had, he would not have even bothered to talk nonsense with them.
“It’s said that the purpose of the Tribunal Council is to safeguard the moral rules of the world. Is what Head Council Fu is doing representative of that? Ridiculous!” Ye Chen looked up at Fu Yu, stalling for time while contemplating how to snatch back the Celestial Martial Chi.
Ye Chen had seen so many Daemon Kings before, and had even seen combatants stronger than Daemon Kings and Godly Venerable Ones. That was why he did not have any fear in his heart even when facing a Godly Venerable Rank combatant.
“No one’s allowed to talk about what the Tribunal Council does!” As if having a nerve struck, Fu Yu’s face contorted and he snorted. A powerful pressure impacted Ye Chen’s chest, suffocating him and pushing him back several steps.
As expected, the strong would not bother to speak reasonably to the weak. The so-called “fairness” was only empty talk. Fu Yu was about to snatch away the Celestial Martial Chi and it was useless for him to say anything more. He clenched his fist tightly. ‘One day, I’ll kill my way to the Tribunal Council and have a good talk with you about ‘morals’!’
Fu Yu did not expect that his pressure would only force Ye Chen a few steps back. He snorted coldly in his heart after seeing Ye Chen’s stubborn eyes. So what if Ye Chen was not reconciled? He felt the Celestial Chi on Ye Chen’s body and said, “You, a mere Heavenly Venerable One, dare to challenge the Tribunal Council? You’re courting death. If I didn’t take pity on you for your hard work in cultivation, I wouldn’t even have bothered wasting my breath on you.” In Fu Yu’s eyes, sparing Ye Chen and Little Wingsy’s lives was him showing mercy to them.
“B*stard!” Little Wingsy kept struggling to fly but was oppressed by the powerful pressure and fell into the sea with a “splash”. Even with Daemon King Rank flesh, Little Wingsy’s cultivation was greatly weakened. Furthermore, he had suffered such a heavy injury. He could not fight against Fu Yu at all.
Under Fu Yu’s strength, any resistance from Ye Chen and Little Wingsy was futile!
Fu Yu gripped the air and the giant sea turtle formed by Celestial Martial Chi slowly began to move toward him. The giant sea turtle struggled against Fu Yu, trying several times to break free but unable to. If not for the fact that it was heavily injured, it would not have been controlled by Fu Yu so easily.
‘I was the one who wounded the Celestial Marital Chi and I finally had the chance to collect it, but now I have to watch as the Celestial Martial Chi is taken away by Fu Yu.’ Fury flashed in Ye Chen’s eyes. However, no matter how unhappy he was, he did not have enough strength and thus, could only bear with it.
“You animal, how dare you still fight against me!” Fu Yu immediately got angry at being delayed in collecting the Celestial Martial Chi. “Boom boom boom”, he threw a series of punches that impacted the giant sea turtle. The giant sea turtle screamed and writhed in pain in the air. “I’ll teach you to just give up!”
At this point, Lin Qiu saw this scene from the island. Fu Yu was the Head Council of Teal Cloud Sub-council. He was immediately overjoyed and leaped over there and saw Fu Yu’s Celestial Chi locking Ye Chen to the ground firmly. The corners of his mouth pulled down in disdain. At this time, he was not bothered to do anything to Ye Chen.
Fu Yu realized that there was another person on the island and locked the energy on his body on Lin Qiu.
“Who’s there?” Fu Yu grunted. His voice exploded in the sky like muffled thunder.
Lin Qiu hurriedly knelt before Fu Yu and said respectfully, “Head Council Fu, I’m Lin Qiu, an officer from the Bright Cosmos Sub-council. I hereby greet Head Council Fu.”
Hearing Lin Qiu say that he was from the Bright Cosmos Sub-council, Fu Yu’s cold expression eased slightly and he said, “I have a good friendship with Head Council Lei from the Bright Cosmos Sub-council. What are you doing here and why do you look so wretched?” He looked down at Lin Qiu. Lin Qiu’s clothes were unkempt and reduced to rags. He did not seem to possess any dignity belonging to someone from the Tribunal Council.
“Head Council Fu, please avenge this subordinate!” Lin Qiu wept bitterly. He looked miserable.
“If you have any grievances, just say it. I’ll handle them for you,” Fu Yu answered while bombarding the Celestial Martial Chi with a volley of palm energy. He thought to himself, ‘If someone from the Bright Cosmos Sub-council is here, there might be others as well. I have to hurry up and collect the Celestial Martial Chi.’
“I was on a battleship with another Tribunal Council officer, Senior Brother Qi Nan. We were heading to the Exclusion Zone when we were attacked by a sea monster. The battleship sank and I lost Senior Brother Qi Nan. I only narrowly escaped death and arrived at this island, but I was immediately attacked by that person and got seriously injured!” Lin Qiu pointed to Ye Chen and gnashed his teeth. However, he omitted the section where he attacked the Golden Sun Condor first.
Hearing Lin Qiu’s complaint, Fu Yu snorted coldly. “Humph, how can I ignore it when a battleship from my Tribunal Council was attacked so boldly? What else do you have to say?” Fu Yu’s gaze as sharp as knives landed on Ye Chen.
At Fu Yu’s words, a sinister smirk appeared on Lin Qiu’s mouth.
Whether it was Lin Qiu or Fu Yu, it seemed like the Tribunal Council was just a nest of snakes and rats. Trying to reason with them would just be asking for trouble. Ye Chen scoffed coldly and remained silent.
“The battleships of the Tribunal Council bear the symbol of the Tribunal Golden Sword. This person clearly saw the Tribunal Golden Sword yet he still attacked the battleship Brother Qi Nan and I was on. It’s clear that he doesn’t respect our Tribunal Council! I implore Head Council Fu to make a decision!” Lin Qiu prostrated on the ground and said respectfully. He coldly glanced at Ye Chen out of the corner of his eye.
Fu Yu’s gaze landed on Ye Chen only to find that Ye Chen was staring directly at him. He found Ye Chen’s gaze extremely displeasing. How dare a Heavenly Venerable One be so disrespectful to him?
“Insolent, how dare you attack a Tribunal Council battleship. You’re simply courting death. You still dare to be unhappy? Get on your knees!” Fu Yu’s face darkened as he ordered. A more powerful Celestial Chi pressed down on Ye Chen. ‘This boy must’ve some sort of background. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have dared to attack a Tribunal Council battleship so boldly.’ However, the fact that someone so blatantly disregarded the Tribunal Council made Fu Yu furious. ‘Even if I don’t kill him, if I don’t teach this impudent boy a lesson, it’d damage the might of the Tribunal Council!”
Wherever the Tribunal Council went, even super forces had to stay away! This led Fu Yu and the other Tribunal Council officers into becoming so overbearing.
Ye Chen felt like his chest was being hit by a sledgehammer. A trace of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth and he staggered, about to fall to his knees. He wildly urged the Nine Astras in his body and a powerful Celestial Chi seeped out of his body, stopping his knee just an inch above the ground.
“Men only need to kneel before heaven, earth, and their parents. Who are you to deserve me kneeling before you? I’d rather be killed than insulted!” Ye Chen gritted his teeth. His eyes turned red and he glared at Fu Yu like an unyielding wolf, slowly rising to his feet.
Ye Chen continuously fought against Fu Yu’s Celestial Chi. All the bones in his body creaked and groaned as the two Celestial Chi battled fiercely against each other. It was as if two huge millstones were squeezing Ye Chen’s body. He felt like all the bones in his body were being crushed.
Ye Chen’s furious eyes made Fu Yu feel a chill. Currently, Ye Chen was like a wounded wolf that bore a grudge against him. If Fu Yu did not kill him now, he might not be able to live in peace in the future.
A Heavenly Venerable One dared to pit his Celestial Chi against him. This was the first time Fu Yu had encountered something like this. If it were in the past, he would not even bother looking at a Heavenly Venerable One.
The difference between a Heavenly Venerable One and a Godly Venerable One was like a natural chasm!
In the past, Fu Yu was also considered a brilliant genius. It took him nearly eighty years to cultivate from Heavenly Venerable Rank to Godly Venerable Rank.
In the eyes of an ordinary Heavenly Venerable One, a Godly Venerable One was like a god. No matter where Fu Yu went, Earthly Venerable Ones were just like ants to him. They would look at him with reverence. However, he could not see any trace of fear in Ye Chen’s eyes. There was merely killing intent.
“Heh, very good. You have the courage and backbone to dare scold me. I’d like to see just how long you can hold on. Kneel!” Fu Yu roared and increased his energy. The boundless Celestial Chi was like a mountain pressing down on Ye Chen.
Boom boom boom!
The rocks around Ye Chen had turned to dust under the fierce and unparalleled Celestial Chi. The ground nearby also suddenly sank several meters.
Even Lin Qiu, keeling on the ground in the distance, felt the terrifying pressure. His eyes looked around in horror as he paled. Was this the strength of a Godly Venerable One? It was terrifying. However, inside his shocked eyes was a faint trace of excitement. That boy dared to go against a Godly Venerable One. He was truly courting death. Before long, he would be flattened by the Godly Venerable Rank Celestial Chi.
