Chapter 193: For the Bloodling Honor

Translator: Kingbao Editor: DarkGem

What did fight for honor mean?

-_-|||

Was that a cellphone game slogan?

“We seek our contractors because of our immortality, and we worship the strong to be strong,” Yu Zhe explained gravely. “We have always been proud.,but we take our words seriously. Once we give our word, we would never turn our backs. If you convince the elder grand prince into a 1v1 battle for honor, we would have a shot at winning!”

“You mean”—Yao Si took a step forward—”we should challenge them to a duel?” Why did it sound so dubious?

“Mmh.” He swept a glance over them. “When the time comes, you will challenge the elder grand prince to a battle of honor in front of the entire clan. This would prevent them from going back on their word. As long as you win, you can use the victor’s honor to send them back.”

“Using this universe as a bet…” Yao Si frowned as she exchanged a glance with Mu Xuan. If they were to agree, it would definitely be viable, but the main point was… who would they be sending for the duel?

“Your man of course.” Yu Zhe saw through her thoughts and pointed at Mu Xuan. “Who else is qualified? Even though I’m not sure of his background, but based on his abilities, it wouldn’t be a problem for him to defeat an elder grand prince in a 1v1 duel.”

That wasn’t a worry, but…

“Do we just have to defeat one of them?” If it was a fight against one person, would the others acknowledge it? There were three elder grand princes. If it went to 1v3, wouldn’t be any different from the previous lost cause scenario? Even though Mu Xuan was powerful, fighting against three elder grand princes would probably be too much.

“Who says it’s just him?” Yu Zhe rolled his eyes and pointed at her. “There’s you too!”

“… What?” Didn’t you say I’d be there just as a decoy?

“The battle for honor isn’t limited to just abilities.” Yu Zhe glanced at her with disgust. “You’ll have to find a way for them to compete against your mental strength. With your perverted level in it, they wouldn’t stand a chance.”

Yao Si finally got it!

“In summary, you want me to… put on a front?

“…” Yu Zhe’s lips twitched, and he rolled his eyes at her before continuing. “Anyways, once you guys win against the two elder grand princes, they would know that taking over this universe wouldn’t be as easy as they had imagined.”

If it really was as he said, it was indeed a good idea.

Eh, wait a minute!

“Weren’t there three elder grand princes? Why do we just have to win against two of them?” What happened to the third one? Or was it majority wins?

Yu Zhe stilled, his face darkening before he suddenly exploded in fury. “Enough! I’ve already been beaten to such a state, so what more do you want?”

What was wrong? What was with the sudden temper?

Perhaps… An absurd explanation popped into the minds of the crowd.

“You are an elder grand prince!?”

“What’s wrong?!”

“…”

The enemy’s strength seemed to have went down instantly!

(⊙_⊙)

–

The pure breeds came quickly!

They predicted three days for their arrival, but on the second day, Lin Long detected abnormal spatial movements near the Blue Planet.

There wasn’t even time for Yao Si to prepare before she was sent to the abyss. As expected, once they approached the Blue Planet, they found the surrounding darkness being ripped apart as it twisted and turned. Even the Blue Planet was starting to distort.

“They’re coming!” Lin Long announced, focusing his gaze straight ahead.

Yao Si’s heart shook, and she took in a deep breath to suppress her riled up emotions, but she couldn’t seem to calm down. Mu Xuan then tightened his grip around her hand and caressed her head. “Don’t worry, if… I’ll do it.”

Yao Si stilled, his wounded self resurfacing in her mind. She then shook her head violently. “No, I can do it.” Wasn’t it just putting on a front? She could definitely do that.

A gigantic white portal gradually widened behind the Blue Planet. Yao Si couldn’t help but shove Li Zheng who stood by her side. “Is there somewhere I can sit?”

Li Zheng stilled before his eyes lit up. “As expected of my dad to think it through so well! You’ll certainly look more commanding seated, and I just happen to have a limited edition portable chair with me.” He tapped open his optical computer to take out a glowing golden chair and placed it behind her. “Dad, take a seat. Let us oppress them with our imposing manner.”

“You misunderstood, my legs are feeling weak!”

“…”

When the first batch of troops came through the portal, the first thing that came into their sight was a majestic looking Yao Si sitting on the shinny golden chair. She looked down at the approaching troops with contempt, squinting her eyes slightly as though they didn’t mean a thing. Among the three men around her was even a bloodling from their world, Lin Long.

“I heard that you intend to take over our universe?” Yao Si said while scanning the crowd dismissively, not taking them into account.

The pure breeds’ mood sank instantly, exposing their apprehension.

Even a fool knew that something went wrong when Yu Zhe hadn’t returned. But he was an elder grand prince, and according to Lin Long’s previous report, they were just lowly other races in this universe. Logically thinking, there shouldn’t be any race stronger than them living in the universe, but the moment they entered, they were no longer so sure.

Who was… that person?

Yao Si struggled to keep her composure, her nerves strung tight as she squinted to give the crowd a rugged scan. Deep inside, her heart was in a frenzy. My gosh, there is probably millions of them! If we really get into a fight… everything is going to go down the drain.

But she had to keep her composure, had to keep up the act.

“Excuse me, if you want this universe…” She turned toward the two men at the front before spitting out, “You will have to go through me!”

“Who are you?” A women took a step forward, her brows furrowed. She had to be an elder grand prince that Yu Zhe had mentioned, and beside her… even though he had the appearance of a young child of about ten years old, was the strongest among the three elder grand princes.

“I’m just one of the many races in this universe.” Yao Si tried to portray a nonchalant tone. “And what a coincidence, we’re called bloodlings as well.”

The faces of the two elder grand princes sank. They had been informed about the bloodlings of this universe, but according to the report, they were a bunch of weaklings with impure blood. Had there been a mistake in the report?

Lin Long, who was the person who’d made the report, seemed relatively calm despite being in the enemy’s camp, which was a clear sign that he had betrayed them. Thus, his report couldn’t be completely trusted.

“We’re extremely upset about your uninformed invasion,” Yao Si continued. “Hence, we couldn’t help but take action.” She turned to give Li Zheng a glance.

Li Zheng nodded and tugged Yu Zhe up forcefully before giving him a shove forward. With a lift of his foot, he stomped on the fallen body.

“Isn’t he one of yours?”

“Elder grand prince!” the crowd exclaimed as they stared in disbelief. He was an elder grand prince, one of the strongest among the grand princes, so how could he have been caught so easily?!

“Lin Long mentioned that you’re rather strong so we decided to test it, but… I accidentally obliterated his abilities.” Yao Si waved her hand with fake sadness.

The faces of all the troops sunk. An uproar broke out in the crowd since no one had expected this universe to have someone strong enough to obliterate an elder grand prince’s ability.

“How-how can that be, that’s Yu Zhe, the elder grand prince!”

“Abilities can be decimated?”

“What kind of universe is this?”

“Wasn’t this universe filled with lowly inhabitants? Was the report inaccurate?”

“Can we win with the presence of such a race?”

The troops flew into a frenzy. After half a second, the child-like elder grand prince finally took a step forward with a dark gaze. In a heavy tone that didn’t fit his appearance, he asked, “What do you intend to do?”

Her presence here definitely wasn’t just for show, right?

“It’d be too troublesome to deal with each and every one of you. Since we’re here, why don’t”—Yao Si swept a glance at the youth before completing her sentence—”we fight for the bloodling honour. Three matches to determine the victor. If you win, your race can do anything you wish in this universe as long as you don’t disrupt my people, but if you lose… get out of my universe.”

“…”

At the last line, Yao Si’s heart was in her mouth. She struggled to stop her hands from clenching into fists or revealing any other signs of anxiety. Since she had already gone so far, she had to keep calm. Keep calm! Keep it together for everyone!

While thinking that, she couldn’t help taking a peak at the surrounding troops…

F*ck!

F*ck you, Yu Zhe! Wasn’t it just a kick from Li Zheng? Was there a need to show such a promiscuous expression? You’re supposed to be a hostage!

After what seemed like an eternity, she heard a reply from afar.

“Alright!”
