Against Heaven's Will

Chapter 117 Look at Me like Xuefeng at Nuwa

The explosion rose the dust from the Main Stage, covering the two with a large cloud of dust. They expected Xuefeng to be blasted away but nothing happened.

"Oh no! Bai Lin attacked during the pause, trying to catch Xuefeng off guard! How could he disturb such a romantic moment?!" the Commentator called out upset only to change his statement right after, "Wait! I just received information from the higher-ups! Bai Lin's attack was completely fair! Apparently, there is no such thing as a Time-out in the Tournament!"

The crowd was just as shocked as the Commentator but most stayed silent, gazing at the cloud of dust to see what happened.

"I called for a time-out…" Xuefeng's cold voice broke through the dust. "Are you fucking deaf?"

Swoosh!

With a shockwave of air from Sir Liu, the dust dispersed, displaying the two in an unusual position.

"Oh my…" the Commentator muttered, lost for words for a second before bursting with enthusiasm. "WHAT CAN'T HE DO?!"

Xuefeng glared at Bai Lin as he blocked Bai Lin's Mallet at his arm's length. It wouldn't be surprising if Xuefeng's arm wasn't human anymore.

It was a claw!

"Is that a Dragon Claw?!" the Commentator hyped. "How else will you surprise us Xuefeng?!"

"How did you react so soon?!" Bai Lin cried out baffled as he tried to jump away but he paused, his weapon stuck.

Xuefeng held the head of the mallet with his Dragon Claw, gripping it firmly. Bai Lin tried to pull it away but only his muscles trembled while the Mallet stayed unmoved. It didn't even budge!

Crack!

Xuefeng squeezed the metal and his dragon fingers sank in with no ease. He made a giant imprint, turning the Mallet into scrap metal in a second before releasing it.

"Is this what you want? Don't worry, you won't need it soon anyway," Xuefeng assured as his second arm began to transform.

"Fuck you!" Bai Lin cursed.

He let go of his weapon and jumped away while sending tens of fireballs in Xuefeng's direction.

Psshh!

Xuefeng simply waved with his Dragon Claws and ripped them apart, blasting clouds of steam in all directions. Water Qi worked like a perfect counter to fire.

"Wait! Is that Qi Incarnation?! Don't tell me his Qi has the Essence of the Dragon?!" the Commentator exclaimed as the battle continued.

Bai Lin launched back, trying to get distance while preparing his second Mallet but he forgot who he was against.

Speed was Xuefeng's forte!

Swoosh!

Xuefeng burst out from the steam like a lightning, appearing next to Bai Lin with his Dragon Claw formed into a fist.

BANG!

A direct hit in the stomach.

"That's from the crowd!" Xuefeng cried out, sending Bai Lin flying with his second Mallet staying behind.

That wasn't all. Xuefeng disappeared from the spot, teleporting behind Bai Lin with another fist incoming.

BANG!

A clean upper-cut.

"That's from me!" Xuefeng added, launching Bai Lin high in the sky.

Blinking above him once again, his Dragon Claw grew larger, leaking with power.

"Xuefeng is going to kill him!" the Commentator called out with pity, knowing another young talent would end up ten feet underground.

Unfortunately, no one else sided with Bai Lin. He provoked Xuefeng, so he had to pay the consequences.

"And that's for my Nuwa!"

BOOM!

It was the first time many saw someone break the records of speed. Too bad it would never be repeated by that individual.

Thud!!!

Bai Lin smashed into the ground, sinking meters below as if his grave was already dug for him. Not many would survive three strikes of such power.

Xuefeng didn't even check if Bai Lin was dead or alive as his Golden Wings swung. His gaze locked with Nuwa once again as he headed straight towards the suspended Flying Ship.

The barrier protecting the Main Stage shone as he got close, reminding him of its existence but Xuefeng didn't care.

Pa!

The barrier broke like a bubble as he ripped a hole for himself. A big smile appeared on Xuefeng's face as he finally reached the top of the Flying Ship, facing Nuwa right in front of her.

Thud.

He didn't even say anything as his Dragon Claws dissipated and he dove into Nuwa's embrace, gripping her body tighter than Bai Lin's Mallet. Even she didn't seem to expect such a warm welcome.

"Nuwa… You come…"

Xuefeng's soft voice broad-casted across the Arena, complete opposite to his actions just a moment ago. All his fierceness and coldness was gone, replaced with love and gentleness.

"I missed you…"

His face displayed on the screen, showing tears of happiness that flowed on his cheeks. Even the toughest men were moved by such a scene. Many recalled scenes of their reunions, tearing up together with Xuefeng.

"Baby, I'm back… Let's not separate anymore. I can't live without you," Nuwa confessed, her arms sinking into his back as she returned the hug.

"I won't let it happen… If Heavens wants to split us again, I will destroy it," Xuefeng promised and pulled away ever so slightly to look into her eyes.

His genuine smile melted everyone's heart, including Nuwa's.

"Hey… Don't cry," Nuwa muttered as she reached up and wiped his tears away. "You will make me cry too. I'm already resisting."

"Hehe, it's okay," Xuefeng giggled as he pulled her closer. "I don't care about anything as long as we are together."

The crowd didn't need to wait long for the kiss to happen as Xuefeng's hand sneaked behind Nuwa's head and he quickly pulled her in.

"Awwww… I wish my wife looked at me like Xuefeng looks at Nuwa," the Commentator remarked. "Everyone! Let's cheer them with loud applause!"

Clap! Clap! Clap!

Everyone stood up, cheering in their own way while Xuefeng and Nuwa were locked in their own world, ignoring everything that happened around them.

The Commentator didn't know but his remark would become famous in the Water Land Capital, becoming a common saying in the future.

"Huh?"

Just as everyone was invested in Xuefeng's love life, multiple experts in black uniforms flew out of the Flying Ship, circling it in a defensive stance. Before anyone could guess what was happening, they heard a mature voice.

"We finally meet, Xuefeng. Won't you come to greet your Grandfather-in-law?"
