Chapter 1849: Power of the Arrow

Zhao Han was also stupefied.

Why?! My protective barrier is actually inferior to that clump of tattered steel?

In that instant, he even thought about crossing space to squeeze into that cage. However, the cage was too small and didn’t seem to have enough space to hold him too. His ability to disregard space was based on set preconditions. The destination had to have enough space, or else he couldn’t cross over. Furthermore, he could sense that the cage had some spatial separation formations.

This brat really is treacherous; he actually even guarded against that.

Just then, when those spheres of lightning sensed that they couldn't eliminate the people below, they no longer blindly crashed down. Instead, they merged together to form two massive dragons. Then, one rushed at Zu An’s group while the other charged at Zhao Han.

The giant dragons were a brilliant red. Zu An’s group could feel trembling from their very souls even though they were still far away. Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue’s expressions both changed.

“This is bad. This lightning tribulation seems to be able to directly target the soul. If you are hit, you will immediately perish!”

Zu An said gravely, “Then let’s hold onto each other a bit tighter.”

Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue were stunned.

When he saw their strange looks, Zu An didn’t bat an eye as he said, “The power of this tribulation lightning is so great, so we need to minimize our size as much as possible and stay further away from the cage. Otherwise, we might be hit and draw the lightning into our own bodies.”

Even though they could sense that he was abusing the situation a bit, the two women didn’t dare to take the gamble right now. Furthermore, they had already shared the most intimate kind of relationship with him, so they didn’t feel that much of an emotional burden from hugging him.

It’s just a bit embarrassing in front of that stone cold woman (witch).

When he sensed the two ladies moving closer into his arms, Zu An truly felt the unique features of each beauty. He was bursting with joy inwardly, but on the surface, there wasn’t a single change in his expression.

In truth, he didn’t have that much confidence against that incoming dragon of lightning.

Ancestral Master Faraday, please be reliable…

Soon after, the massive dragon smashed into the metal cage. After circling a few times, it still couldn't enter and was unwillingly guided into the earth, eventually disappearing.

Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue were shocked and overjoyed, exclaiming, “It really did work!”

The two grandmasters were as excited as young girls. They gave Zu An’s ‘profound and mysterious’ side profile a look and couldn't help but feel a bit shaken up inside.

If there were no one else here, Yan Xuehen probably would just leapt over out of excitement and gave him a kiss. When she thought of that, she couldn't help but give the third wheel a glare.

However, her eyes widened as she looked at the other woman, feeling shocked and heartbroken. It was because she saw Yun Jianyue get on her tiptoes and actually kiss Zu An right in front of her face!

“You… You…” Yan Xuehen murmured; her mind was a complete mess.

What is this witch doing? That is her disciple’s man!

“What do you mean ‘you’? Little Ah Zu is so incredible, so what’s wrong with giving him a bit of a reward?” Yun Jianyue retorted, rolling her eyes.

Yan Xuehen said angrily, “He is your disciple’s man; how can you do something like this?”

“Good work should be rewarded. This one was happy and felt like giving him a reward, what’s wrong with that? It’s not as if we share romantic feelings. What kind of nonsense are you thinking?” Yun Jianyue said while secretly writing words on Zu An’s palm, secretly sharing messages of love.

Ah… This feels amazing. Being a Devil Sect witch is the best. I don’t have to worry about the other consequences.

When she thought of that, she gave Yan Xuehen a provocative look and asked, “If you can’t accept this, then why don’t you kiss him? Oh wait, I almost forgot. You’re a stone cold woman. You don’t feel a thing toward men. You’re nothing like us… witches?” Toward the end, she raised her voice.

Yan Xuehen’s beautiful eyes widened, her expression filled with disbelief. She murmured, “You… You…”

Zu An understood Yan Xuehen’s thin-skinned nature the best. He was about to warn her that Yun Jianyue was provoking her on purpose, but he was worried that big sis Yun would overthink things if he said anything.

While he was hesitating, there was suddenly a cool sensation on his face. A clear and pure fragrance wafted through the air. That soft and cold feeling was just too incredible.

As it turned out, Yan Xuehen had actually also gotten on her tiptoes, giving him a kiss. When she saw his expression, her cold face also produced a hint of a blush.

Yun Jianyue had never expected the tides to turn so quickly. Even someone like her was now overwhelmed with disbelief. She exclaimed, “You… You actually kissed him?!”

“What ‘you’? Have you never seen someone kiss before?! A Devil Sect’s witch can reward him, so why can’t a righteous sect member like me give out a reward?” Yan Xuehen retorted. Her heart was pounding, and she felt as if it were louder than the thunder all around them. Her cheeks were pink as she quickly added, “I’m kissing him on behalf of my Chuyan to prevent a witch like you from deceiving him!” She was starting to regret her impulse. She really didn’t know what she had been thinking, to actually do something that bold.

“You actually kissed a man, and it’s your disciple’s man…” Yun Jianyue said, still in shock. This was nothing like the stone cold woman she knew! Was Yan Xuehen possessed? She naturally knew that was impossible, so she looked at the other woman with a strange expression and asked, “Stone cold woman, don’t tell me you actually like this brat?”

Yan Xuehen also gradually recovered her cool, saying, “Is kissing him the same as liking him? Then did you fall in love with him?”

“Of course not; I am a Devil Sect witch, so I kiss when I want…”

“Is a Devil Sect witch all that? If you can do it, then why can’t I?”

…

As he listened to these women fight once again, Zu An had a weird expression.

As expected, the more competition there is, the more benefits there are for the consumer…

You have successfully trolled Zhao Han for +999 +999 +999…

Zhao Han really was about to implode from anger. When he faced that terrifying dragon of lightning earlier, he’d had no choice but to use the Human Emperor Seal and barely managed to disperse it. He was covered in injuries.

On his end, he had been fighting bitterly against that terrifying lightning dragon, and yet that strange cage actually easily dealt with it. That wasn’t the worst of it, though! The three damn adulterers had actually ended up playing a kissing game!

That witch Yun Jianyue never acted according to conventional reasoning. Even though it was a bit strange for her to kiss Zu An, it was still understandable.

However, who was Yan Xuehen? She was famous for being cold, someone who kept a near-absolute distance from men. Countless people could only sigh in frustration, while at the same time admiring her dedication to purity. Her detachment from the secular world, to a certain degree, actually served as a spiritual pillar for Zhao Han’s generation of men.

Zu An holding her in his arms was already explosive, and yet now, she had actually kissed that brat on her own initiative!

Is this damn kid really that much of a lady-killer?

Even a goddess fell down to the secular world!

If not even Yan Xuehen could resist his charms, it wasn’t all that surprising for the empress and crown princess to follow suit. Those unbearable scenes appeared in his mind again. His eyes became entirely red once again.

He could sense that his current state of mind wasn’t beneficial for facing this tribulation. However, he couldn't be bothered to care about all that anymore. His only wish was to finish the tribulation as quickly as possible, so he could properly discipline this bastard.

You have successfully trolled Zhao Han for +999 +999 +999…

As if sensing his changing mood, the tribulation clouds above transformed again. The flying lightning dragons suddenly joined their heads and tails to form a giant chained whip. Every single link in the chain was made of one of the dragons. The whip soon rose into the air, making the whole world seem to have been divided in half. One could well imagine its power.

Zhao Han’s expression changed. He quickly used the Human Emperor Seal to protect himself. He didn’t have the confidence to stop this round.

Zu An also looked at the Faraday Cage around his group. Even though the cage was able to stop the powerful lightning, it only isolated the extremely high voltage and not the electric current. Earlier, it had endured the terrifying tribulation and led it into to the ground, but the lines of the cage couldn't endure the powerful electric current. There were traces of melted metal all across it.

Zu An once again sighed in amazement at the power of tribulation lightning. He had already added many special materials, and Yan Xuehen even added formations to it, and yet it was still about to break down. If there were a few more rounds, perhaps this Faraday Cage would just collapse. Without its protection, their party of three would quickly die. Thus, they had to get rid of Zhao Han before then.

With the three of them joining the tribulation, the lightning’s power had been greatly increased. Previously, Zhao Han had still been able to easily deal with the situation, but he was already at his limit. His entire body was covered in wounds.

However, it still wasn’t enough!

Zu An said seriously, “Hold onto me tightly!”

Yan Xuehen and Yun Jianyue shot him a look.

Isn’t this brat going too far? You still want to take advantage of us even in this kind of situation?

However, when he took out the Sun Slaying Bow, they realized that it was because he could no longer carry them. They had to hold onto him tightly. In order to avoid their souls being blasted into nothingness, the two women could only suppress their shyness and awkwardness. They clung tightly to his body like sloths.

…

In the distance, Zhao Han sensed a wave of killing intent lock onto him. He sneered.

This brat is too naive. Do you think this is enough to distract me?

If Zu An had a real Sun Slaying Arrow, perhaps he would feel a bit of apprehension, but the brat could only condense some random arrows. In this terrifying lightning tribulation, those formless arrows would be blasted to pieces before they could even draw near. As such, he just ignored Zu An and focused on the lightning whip above them.action

In the time it took for sparks to fly off a flint, the terrifying whip arrived in front of him. He didn’t dare to underestimate it. He controlled the Human Emperor Seal and smashed it against the whip.

Sure enough, he was able to block it. After blocking it a few times, the lightning radiance lingered around his body. He could sense all of his injuries being healed by the origin power of the world. He couldn't help but feel overjoyed.

It seemed that this was the final round of tribulation lightning. As long as he could block this lightning whip, he would undergo a complete transformation and become a true immortal. Forget about this brat, even the Ghost King and Sun En from before would be nothing but ants to him!

Just then, all of the lightning whips converged. An aura of annihilation crashed down.

“Win or lose, it all ends here!” he muttered.

After enduring it for so long, he had already grasped some of the tribulation lightning’s principles. Even though its power was great, he had great confidence in surviving it.

Suddenly, a comet flew across the horizon. He could vaguely make out white feathers at its tail.

Wait, feathers?

All of Zhao Han’s fine hairs stood on end. He wanted to dodge, but for some reason, his entire body suddenly stiffened. Then, there was a huge explosion. He looked down in disbelief.

A white feathered arrow had flashed past, leaving a large hole in its wake. All of his internal organs were gone!
