I Am Supreme

Chapter 805: Already Late

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

At the same time, Ji Lingxi was feeling slightly inferior about herself: He is so outstanding, and I… why do I feel that I can never match up to his level?

I need to be more impressive, I need to work harder, my cultivation base needs to be stronger…

Somewhere far, far away, a father and a mother were completely rendered speechless: Silly girl, how can you look down upon yourself like that? Your cultivation base is clearly many levels stronger than that little brat’s! You’re not weaker than him in any way! If he could capture your fair maiden heart, that would be that brat’s greatest fortune!

You shouldn’t surrender or think that you are lacking! If you ever resign yourself to that, your parents would the butt of the joke for that liar. Please — please prove your worth!

…

Yun Yang was feeling a little strange at this moment.

They were walking at leisure; why did Ji Lingxi seem to be holding his arm… intentionally?

Plus, was she doing it on her own accord?

“Look, Yun Yang — the clouds over there by the mountains are so pretty! It looks like a giant fish, don’t you think so?” Ji Lingxi exclaimed excitedly as one hand pointed towards the colorful horizons, while the other held onto Yun Yang’s to nudge his attention.

Yun Yang looked towards the direction of her voice and frowned. Fish? That looks nothing like it. Pretty? What kind of aesthetic appreciation is this?

However, this reason had given Ji Lingxi a chance to hold him, his hand in hers — and they had never separated since.

“Look over there… it’s a squirrel, how adorable!”

“Over there — what is that cow doing?”

“Why are those two dogs sandwiched together… ugh! Don’t look!”

…

Yun Yang was feeling rather speechless for the longest stretch of time.

This was the meeting ground for those committed to sacrifice their lives in battle — how did it turn into a sweet little excursion in Ji Lingxi’s eyes?

They started out their journey late by a day. If Yun Yang had transformed and sprinted the whole way, he would have reached his destination a lot earlier than this; however, with Ji Lingxi tagging along, it was not possible for Yun Yang to do so.

Although they were traveling at a speed much faster than that of a common man’s, it was still, eventually, a journey of a million miles. They had already wasted much time in giving away bounties along the way earlier— now, they were still pausing occasionally to watch the scenery and smell the flowers…

The three-day limit that Yun Yang had imposed earlier had reached its end in the blink of an eye. Upon its expiry, they still had not made the halfway point of their journey.

“It’s true that a man should walk the talk, and he who has no integrity does not carry himself well… still, breaking one’s word towards an enemy is not much of a big deal.” After Yun Yang gave himself a reason, he was more at ease and began to grow even more laidback by the moment.

“Well, we’re doomed to not make it on time anyway — let’s just follow the flow. Whatever that is meant to be, will be!”

Hence, Yun Yang and Ji Lingxi walked slower and slower. It was a long and arduous journey, and had they not been traveling at a certain speed, their time of arrival would be largely unpredictable.

This was a situation that had almost caused the puzzled forces of the Four Seasons Tower to be on the verge of a mental breakdown!

At this hour, every single expert of the Four Seasons Tower had already gathered upon Tianxuan Cliff, waiting.

Under the supervision of Mr. Nian, Four Seasons Tower had brandished their entire strength. The scale of it all was astonishingly huge — even grander and more formidable than the one encountered by Ling Xiaozui and his party previously.

After all, this was a challenge incited by Supreme Cloud himself — the greatest culmination of the Nine Supremes — witnessed by everybody, complete with an appointed date. Hence, of course, it would be the final call — it would be the ultimate appointment rid of any doubt, an appointment that would not tolerate the slightest slip-up!

Both parties would not part until this matter is wholly settled. The only way out of this was if one party was completely exterminated, or in the event where both parties would perish together — there was no way that both parties could get out of this alive!

Thus, the day of this historical clash had arrived.

The forces of the Four Seasons Tower had already made all the due preparations. The only task that remained was to kill Yun Yang and call it a day. The Four Seasons Tower would go down in history — a reality unprecedented by any — once again!

One could say that this outcome was definitely expected — every man from the Four Seasons Tower was clearly excited and confident about the prospects. In a highly motivated and efficient manner, they cast a soul-controlling formation all around Tianxuan Cliff, and laid low in silence, waiting for the arrival of their opponent.

However, he did not show up after they had waited for a day — the much anticipated and perfectly logical ‘taking-the-enemy-by-surprise’ attack did not occur!

After waiting for two whole days, he still did not appear — neither did the unforeseeable assault!

With the third day almost coming to an end, everyone was on high alert. Every speck of attention was spent focused on the task at hand; everybody waited patiently for Supreme Cloud to arrive so they could finally commence this ultimate deathmatch.

Clearly, Supreme Cloud had it all planned out — a day was a day, and two was two — he would not entertain any form of a discount on his promised word!

However, in the end… the man of the hour still had yet to show up as the time elapsed had passed its due.

This time, everybody started to seem a little lost.

You strike up this challenge before the whole world — you wouldn’t just retract your challenge like that, would you?

There was no logic in this.

You are the Supreme Cloud — the most famous legend in the current world!

How can you just eat your words?

“This reputed one still believes that Supreme Cloud would fulfill his promise. He will come — perhaps something had come in his way, or he has been held back by some matters,” Mr. Nian said. “Let’s wait for another day — the Four Seasons Tower can definitely afford to do so.”

Yet, days became weeks. This situation continued to remain like this for the next seven to eight weeks…

Everybody was on the verge of bursting their blood vessels from all the waiting. Just as they were sure that this was the limit of their patience, Supreme Cloud still did not show up!

Then, to his surprise, the scout lying in wait on the fringe of their encampment found the entire Tianxuan Cliff encircled by rows and rows of soldiers of the battalion led by Marshal Fu Baoguo — the same battalion that had defended the Fortress of Resilience.

They were so tightly-knit to the point they resembled a wall of solid copper — it was completely impenetrable.

Do not even mention a man — with this level of security, even a mosquito would find it difficult to enter and exit as it pleases!

What is Supreme Cloud playing at? What kind of wishful thinking is this?

The experts of the Four Seasons Tower expressed their bewilderment at the current situation.

Was he planning to use the military to encircle us, then wipe us out?

Is this even possible?

Well, we are not totally invincible. Surely we would not be able to kill all these people — but if we really mean to leave and retreat entirely… you will not be able to stop us, even if you gather an army ten times bigger than this scale!

If all else fails, we could make our way to the skies.

We do know how to fly, after all.

Although the Deicide Bow is a little ruthless, its firing range is still pretty limited in the air. As long as we don’t go all out, what can they do to us?

Then, what is the military of such scale for?

They’re not here just to wave their banners for moral support, are they?

In light of this, Mr. Nian sent his men directly to Fu Baoguo to address the matter, “What are you here for?”

“We are here to witness the battle and cheer for Supreme Cloud, and also — to ensure that this battle will not be disrupted by the interference of a third party,” Fu Baoguo replied intimidatingly.

The forces of the Four Seasons Tower were completely speechless with this reply.

The interference of a third party?

This reason made a lot of sense, and was by far the strongest justification!

However, in the current state of affairs, the real question now was this; which man, group or force would have the strength to involve themselves in this battle of the century?

Eventually, to make the situation sound even worse, even if there was really the interference of an external force, say, the Concourse of the Underworld, or Ling Xiaozui, or Dugu Chou for example — that would only be to Supreme Cloud’s advantage. Would you be able to fend off the external forces coming to aid Supreme Cloud’?

Don’t be a standing joke already!
