Against The Gods With An Anime System 86 The Tournament - Round Of 32 - Day 4 - Part 2

Xia Qingyue was completely trapped from all sides within this formation of sword lights. But whereas someone else would panic, she stayed completely calm. Waving her crystal ice sword around, several ice lotuses blossomed around her. Each lotus was several times bigger than the previous one, and the coldness released from the lotus coagulated the air. The surrounding temperature dropped at a frightening pace.

"Eh?" Ling Yuefeng originally calm face suddenly changed. More than ten gigantic ice lotuses appeared at the same time. This was definitely not something that someone level 8 Spirit Profound Realm was capable of doing. Ling Yun did not release all his strength previously, but obviously, Xia Qingyue hadn't either!

The numerous sword beams gathered together and attacked the ice lotus. Some of the sword beams shattered immediately while the others were sealed with ice within the petals of the lotus flower, unable to proceed on any further. Previously, Ling Yun could shatter the ice lotus with the wave of his sword. Now however, the gigantic ice lotuses had already been attacked by thousands of sword beams, yet not one flower withered. In the blink of an eye, each ice lotus was with sealed sword beams and the sword beams that had not been touched by the ice lotuses all gathered and stopped around Xia Qingyue.

This was a scene no one had expected. Ling Yun was even more shocked by this. Previously, he had exchanged several hundred moves with Xia Qingyue. However, he did not want to let her lose too quickly and become embarra.s.sed, hence, he did not use his full strength. Originally, he was fully confident that he could end the battle quickly. Never did he expect his move to be completely blocked by his opponent.

Ling Yun's reaction was extremely fast. Seeing his sword beams being sealed in ice, he rushed forward like lightning. Grabbing the air around him, the Celestial Yuan Sword returned into his hands. In that instant, a cyan light flashed from the Celestial Yuan Sword as he instantaneously vanished from everyone's line of sight and in a stream of cyan light flashed past. Ling Yun, as a cyan light, immediately appeared next to Xia Qingyue and clashed swords with her.

CLANG- CLANG- CLANG- CLANG- CLANG- CLANG- CLANG....!!!!!

The ice lotuses and their sealed sword beams all shattered at the same time, filling the sky with ice crystals. Ling Yun's also appeared about 30 meters behind Xia Qingyuu. When everyone had finally refocused onto Ling Yun's new location, they were overwhelmed with shock. Other than a few strong elders and Mesa using his Sharingans, no one could figure out how he had gotten there. All they could see was a cyan light suddenly flas.h.i.+ng past their eyes.

Mesa saw what happened there clearly. Using his immense speed, Ling Yun appeared next to Xia Qingyue and clashed swords with her. During this exchange, that only lasted for a couple of seconds at most, they clashed swords dozens of times. And it was one particular sword clash, were Xia Qingyue put in more strength that pushed Ling Yun back to his current location.

With his sword held horizontally to absorb the impact of that last sword clash, Ling Yun lowered it slowly and whispered: "Please give up. Even though you are several times stronger than expected, you still aren't a match for me. I do not want to injure you, fairy…"

As he spoke, he slowly turned around. Just as he turned around to face Xia Qingyue, his voice was suddenly stuck in his throat and his was unable to say another word. His originally calm expression was suddenly stunned. Even his mind turned blank. Following a long cut, Xia Qingyue's right sleeve drooped, and it revealed half of her arm. But Ling Yun's sword did not only cut off half her sleeve.

In the wake of a cold breeze, Xia Qingyue's snow white face veil slowly floated down, and her originally covered face was revealed to everyone present. The entire Sword Discourse Arena instantly turned silent as everyone present became breathless.

For Xia Qingyue's face was so beautiful that it made everyone speechless who gazed upon her. Her beauty was so great, that it was unmatched. She was truly breathtakingly beautiful.

(A.N.: In the original, this went on for many pages describing just how beautiful Xia Qingyue is. I am not going to do that. So in one sentence, I will describe how beautiful she is.)

The ones that had the largest reactions were no doubt the young profound pract.i.tioners. They had been completely transfixed on her. Even those Young Masters, who usually did not lack beauties around them were also mesmerized as their eyes and mind could not leave Xia Qingyue's. Even those middle-aged men and the elders, whose hair and beard had already turned white, were awestruck and mesmerized.

Xiao Clan's Xiao Kuanglei, Xiao Zheng and Xiao Nan all had the same expression; they stared at her as if they had lost their souls. Burning Heaven Clan's Fen Juecheng had unknowingly stood up from his seat and was awestruck.

"Woah. As expected, big sis got prettier." Xia Yuanba uttered in a soft voice. The atmosphere around the arena had suddenly became strange, causing him to look left and right, before looking at Yun Che. He muttered in confusion: "Everyone looks so weird… Even Brother-in-law too."

(A.N.: Awwww… ignorance is such bliss. Don't you guys think so too?)

Silently looking at the reactions of the crowd and remembering the heartache from that time, caused tears to well up in Ling Yuefeng's eyes. As he was lost in nostalgia, he did not realize that his wife, Xuanyuan Yufeng, was staring at him. His reaction made her slowly frown. After that, she turned and looked at her son Ling Yun. He was the closest to Xia Qingyue. Looking at him, she saw a dreamy look on his face. He didn't have this look when he conquered the Celestial Yuan Sword at the young age of 17.

Xuanyuan Yufeng's frowned, looking at her husband's and her son's reaction. She looked at Xia Qingyue with a hate filled gaze as she spoke to herself in a low voice: "Frozen Cloud Asgard… You harmed my husband in the past. Now… You want to harm my son… Do you want to make him follow in his father's footsteps as well?"

In her voice, one could sense a feeling similar to hatred and jealousy. A woman's jealousy, did not only occur between similarly aged people. Looks were always the most important thing woman cared about. Xuanyuan Yufeng was already 51, but as a profound pract.i.tioner in the latter half of the Sky Profound Realm, she looked no older than 30. If she dressed up younger, she could definitely pull off being Ling Yun's older sister. Her looks, were also above average. Compared to most girls, she was a beauty. But compared to a beauty like Xia Qingyue and the stark difference was apparent.

Every one of the men present, except Mesa and Xia Yuanba, were completely mesmerized by Xia Qingyue's beauty. Mesa on the other hand, was getting annoyed at their reaction. Though he had expected for everyone to react like this, it still annoyed him. Looking around, he either saw the men looking completely mesmerized by Xia Qingyue's beauty or looking at her with l.u.s.tful gazes. Not allowing this continue any longer, he stood up and with a wave of Conqueror's Haki, knocked out all the men that were looking at Xia Qingyue with l.u.s.tful gazes. Everyone's eyes were suddenly on him, as they were familiar with this move after they saw him use it to knock out the Burning Heaven Clan group.

Looking p.i.s.sed off, Mesa took out a veil from the Sky Poison and using some Wind Style Ninjutsu, threw it towards Xia Qingyue, who caught it and put it on, hiding her face once again. As she put on the veil, she gave a little nod towards Mesa, who returned the nod back at her. Every one of the men who saw this happen, were angry at Mesa ruining this chance to gaze at Xia Qingyue's beauty and gaining her attention. But Mesa was not amused and did not care about the angry gazes he was getting from the men in the audience.

"Yes, yes! We all know that she is beautiful! But that is no reason to stop! So get on with the fight already!" Said Mesa loudly for everyone to hear and especially Ling Yun.

Looking around, he could see that the angry gazes had worsened to hateful gazes and even some filled with killing intent. All directed towards Mesa. Not caring about them, he picked up Mjolnir, that he had lying by his feet, and pointed it towards the crowd.

"If anyone disagrees with me, they can come and say it to my face!" Said Mesa threateningly, with a little bit of lightning running over Mjolnir for all to see. As the crowd remembered what Mesa was capable of using Mjolnir, they thought twice about who they wanted to beat up. Immediately, all those hateful gazes and the ones filled with killing intent were gone. Everyone immediately looked down and didn't dare to look at Mesa anymore.

Xuanyuan Yufeng, on the other hand, was looking at Mesa with an inquisitive gaze. She had expected that he, just like all the other men who acted like love stricken fools, would act similarly and be mesmerized by Xia Qingyue's beauty. But on the contrary, he stood up and brought this whole thing to a swift end when he knocked some of the men who were looking at Xia Qingyue with l.u.s.tful gazes and threw a veil at her, with which she covered her face again. And when all their hatred and killing intent was directed back at him, he stood his ground and challenged them with his hammer, Mjolnir, in hand. Immediately, all the men who were looking at him with hateful gazes and with killing intent looked away, no longer daring to look at him. This whole act of his made her evaluate Mesa a little different.

'Hmmm… Interesting fellow, that Mesa Uchiha. During this whole tournament, he has been the biggest enigma and a true monster. And yet, when it comes to standing up against those Major Sects, when most would cower before them. He, on the other hand, stood his ground and even dominated. And unlike those h.o.r.n.y fools, he does not let himself be mesmerized by those Frozen Cloud Asgard wenches. Very interesting indeed.' Thought Xuanyuan Yufeng to herself, watching Mesa act.

Sitting back down, Mesa was smirking, knowing his plan was in motion. He was aware that this whole act of his had attracted the attention of Xuanyuan Yufeng, the Sword Villa Mistress.

'Don't you worry Sword Villa Mistress. I know you find me interesting and I know you desperately need a good dose of Vitamin D, that your husband can't provide. I am more than happy to give you all the Vitamin D you require and more. So just wait for me Xuanyuan Yufeng. Or should I say, Quinella from SAO.' Thought Mesa to himself as he focused on the match once more.
