782: Chapter 269: Ruthless Person 782: Chapter 269: Ruthless Person After Soul Supreme fell silent, the atmosphere here suddenly became stagnant.
No one spoke, since there was no action, they naturally had nothing to say to each other.
Only some people occasionally transmitted messages, exchanging some information.
The looks in each other’s eyes were somewhat peculiar.
Tathagata Buddha heaved a sigh of relief; if a fight really broke out, so many Supremes clashing would eradicate Mount Ling.
The Five Elders of the Five Directions also arrived.
They had all ascended to the level of Great Heavenly Venerate and were positioned very close to the front.
Yet, in the face of those Supremes, they too were somewhat unsure and perturbed.
This was a resplendent era, Supremes were not few; the era of The Primordial when Ancient Gods and Devils coexisted with future beings created an incredibly complex situation.
Although the Human Race was the protagonist of Heaven and Earth, they were indeed too weak.
Without Suiren, a Supreme, and the protection of Heavenly Court, the Human Race would definitely have been slaughtered by now.
The Yellow Emperor and his peers felt fortunate that they had supported the ascension of Great Emperor Ziwei.
If they hadn’t done so at the time, the Human Race’s situation nowadays would have been worrisome.
Without the strong protection of Heavenly Court, the Human Race would have been mere Blood Food.
Even Suiren could only protect some, not the entire Human Race.
The Human Race occupied too much space within Heaven and Earth.
The entire inner hall was nearly full; there were really too many Great Heavenly Venerates.
The myriad beings from The Primordial era, along with future beings and some Ancient Gods, gathered in the inner hall.
However, they were well aware that the true influencers here were at least on the Sub-Paramount level.
Guanyin Bodhisattva also entered the inner hall, but to Sun Wukong’s surprise, the Wealth Dragon Maiden did not follow but instead, Old Ox and Guanyin Bodhisattva came in together.
“Old Ox, you’ve also broken through; why didn’t Little Sweetie come with you?”
Sun Wukong asked, surprised.
Now, Old Ox had also stepped into the rank of Great Heavenly Venerate.
Although he had just become a Great Heavenly Venerate, his strength was formidable, not inferior to that of a typical top-tier Great Heavenly Venerate.
Old Ox glared at Sun Wukong and discontentedly said, “Little Sweetie is also your nickname for her; she’s your sister-in-law.
She dislikes such bustling scenes.
With so many strong individuals here, she would feel uncomfortable.”
Sun Wukong nodded slightly; the strength of Iron Fan Immortal wasn’t strong, she most likely hadn’t reached Heavenly Venerate status yet, so her reluctance to come here was normal.
“How did you breakthrough?
That shouldn’t be right.”
Sun Wukong was somewhat puzzled.
With respectful glances toward the Bodhisattva Guanyin, Ox Demon King gratefully said, “Bodhisattva Guanyin’s mana is boundless.
She grasped a new Dharma and also imparted it to me and your sister-in-law; that’s how I managed to break through, and your sister-in-law will soon become a Heavenly Venerate as well.”
Sun Wukong then noticed that the strength of Bodhisattva Guanyin had advanced dramatically, approaching that of the Sub-Paramount level.
He felt somewhat shocked in his heart; Bodhisattva Guanyin truly deserved to be considered a great capacity of the Buddhist Sect, a truly compassionate Bodhisattva.
The speed of her ascension was like riding on a Somersault Cloud.
Just then, a fierce collision suddenly erupted in the outer hall.
Accompanied by roars, more than one mighty being took action, attacking someone.
Nu Ba’s expression changed slightly, and she immediately rushed out.
With a killing intent soaring to the skies, accompanied by several screams, everyone furrowed their brows, someone had been killed, and the assailant was Nu Ba.
Soul Supreme’s expression darkened, he angrily shouted, “Insolence.”
Then, his figure flashed, transforming into a streak of light dashing toward the outer hall.
Sun Wukong also immediately took action, charging out.
The others then came to their senses, Guanyin Bodhisattva’s expression turned ashen, flames of anger burning in her eyes.
This greatly compassionate Bodhisattva Guanyin, rarely got angry, even if someone tried to kill her, it was the same.
But now, Bodhisattva Guanyin was truly enraged.
In the outer hall, Nu Ba was protecting the Dragon Girl, with several corpses at her feet.
Some people looked terrified, wanting to flee, but Nu Ba with Xuanyuan Sword in hand, directly cut towards them, aiming to kill the escapees.
It was a Heavenly Venerate, who now was in utter despair.
Seeing the Xuanyuan Sword about to fall, unable to evade, the Heavenly Venerate hastily shouted, “Ancestor, save me.”
Soul Supreme charged out, and upon seeing this scene, he violently intervened.
“Stop it.”
He reached out his palm toward Nu Ba, with powerful energy swirling between his fingers.
Being a Supreme, if his strike hit Nu Ba, she would almost certainly die.
Yet, Nu Ba disregarded everything, her sword showing no sign of withdrawing, continuing to press down.
“Puff.”
The Heavenly Venerate was slain.
Soul Supreme’s eyes were about to split with rage, his hand was about to land on Nu Ba.
Just as Nu Ba was about to be struck down by Soul Supreme,
at that moment, Sun Wukong appeared beside Nu Ba, sweeping out with his staff.
The Jingu Bang collided with the palm of Soul Supreme, and the huge mana dispersed all around.
All the divinities and saints here were horrified,
feeling that if they were caught in the aftermath of the collision, they would undoubtedly die.
Fortunately, Tathagata Buddha quickly followed the two men out,
his body surging with Buddha’s Light, blocking the aftermath of their clash.
“To kill my descendants is punishable by death.”
Soul Supreme said coldly.
The people killed on the ground were his descendants.
Originally, he had entered the inner hall, leaving his descendants outside; he had not expected them to be killed.
Seeing his attack blocked, he did not give up but continued to attack, attempting to bypass Sun Wukong to kill Nu Ba.
Sun Wukong’s expression darkened, intercepting Soul Supreme’s attacks.
His expression solemn, he ceaselessly counterattacked, fighting fiercely with Soul Supreme, blocking his assault.
