658 : The Curtain Falls

Chapter 658

The Curtain Falls
Translated by Kollumceti of Exiled Rebels Scanlations

The war between the Guma Tribe and the ShuiXi Tribe was extremely tragic. The battlefield was strewn with dead bodies and both sides had heavy casualties.

After that day where Ling Xiao stepped in and defeated Zu Ma, the pure and holy white lotus, in front of the experts from Three Great Tribes, it became certain that Zu Ma’s strength was no longer at Grade Six – which was the level that everyone knew about.

Ling Xiao had forced her to use all her strength and her cultivation base had also been exposed.

Although she was not a genuine Grade Seven mage, she had half a foot into the realm of a Grade Seven mage, and her cultivation base was equivalent to a six stars Sacred Realm, which was almost the same as Ling Xiao.

However, this was not the source of Zu Ma’s self-confidence. She felt that Ling Xiao could not be her opponent because of his battle with the TongTian Emperor.

The TongTian Emperor was extraordinarily powerful. At that time, the reason why Ling Xiao was able to retreat was because he had self-detonated his domain. For people of their realm, the backlash to be withstood would be multiplied once the domain was destroyed. She concluded that Ling Xiao’s injury had not completely healed, as it would take time for the domain to be re-cultivated. His strength would be greatly reduced without the domain.

The impact of that war was so great that many people got the news.

The information that the Black Spider got was more accurate and the battle between Ling Xiao and the TongTian Emperor was recorded word for word. Zu Ma had seen that record earlier.

Unfortunately, she did not take unexpected factors into account.

You XiaoMo’s lake of spiritual water was something in defiance of the natural order. Ling Xiao used one third of the lake of spiritual water to recovery from injury. If his internal injury was not healed, that would be something beyond logic and above reason!

Furthermore, not only was the injury from that battle completely healed, the residual effects from forcefully breaking through to six stars had also disappeared, so Ling Xiao’s condition could be considered to be at its peak.

Ling Xiao would only have tender and protective feelings for the fairer sex towards his wife. Moreover, for the sake of his wife, it was impossible for him to show mercy to Zu Ma even if she was a woman.

He had not forgotten that a few months later would be the stipulated time for his arrangement with Lin ShaoYi. Even if the Mage Assemblage was not held, he knew that Lin ShaoYi would not leave the matter at that. Since the person who would be fighting at that time would probably be Zu Ma, he should still pave the way for his wife first even if he was not going to deal a blow to Lin ShaoYi.

Zuma was badly injured by Ling Xiao. A white lotus that had become a ravaged lotus was carried back to the Black Spider and the Guma Tribe’s camp. It was unfortunate that You XiaoMo was not there, otherwise he would be able to witness the awe-inspiring scene of his man which had left the scene almost in complete silence at that time.

Finally, the first person to react was Wan Tong, who led the experts of the WanSha Tribe to pursue the retreating enemies and coordinated with MoQi XiYuan.

However, the Guma Tribe and the Black Spider would not be easy to bully just because of Zu Ma’s defeat as they were still very strong. The two sides fought till it was pitch-dark, and there constantly were people sustaining injuries and dying. Everyone knew that this war would draw a conclusion to the thousands of years of struggle in Dong Zhou.
