Tribulation of Myriad Races-Chapter 1258: Bloodline Transfer (3)

One explosion after another erupted as the world shook and multicolored rays of light started spreading in the sky. He was still in the middle of his advancement. The multicolored rays of light would spread further upon the completion of his advancement. The myriad race Invincibles attacked relentlessly with all sorts of weapons.

In the blink of an eye, Xia Longwu had swung his saber seven times, each stronger than the prior.

Alas, there were too many opponents.

Finally, a palm stabbed through his chest.

An Invincible exclaimed, "What a surprise, Xia Longwu. You're very strong. Does Great Xia produce nothing but monsters?

Was Great Xia a place specializing in producing Pseudo Invincibles capable of fighting Invincibles? Any of them would have died facing Xia Longwu alone.

Meanwhile, Su Yu could only watch helplessly. He felt incomparably useless. Without the stone statue's assistance, there was nothing he could do.

He felt as though he had returned to the day when his teacher alone faced numerous enemies in Great Xia City.

At the time, he was powerless. He could only beg for help.

Today, he did not beg for help.

He already knew that nobody would help no matter how hard he begged.

Further away from Xia Longwu, the nine mayors were in desperate straits. Again and again, they were blasted back into their cities. Again and again, they charged out while coughing blood.

It wasn't like they had no way of preserving their lives. As long as they withdrew to their cities, the Invincibles would stop attacking. However, those Invincibles would then be free to join the attack against Xia Longwu. Thus, the mayors had no choice but to keep fighting.

At this point, they were already severely wounded even as the death qi in their bodies churned madly.

Suddenly, Su Yu took his mayor's medallion and spoke to it, "Su Yu, the mayor of Grandstar City, seeks the assistance of all mayors. I only need you to keep the enemies busy for a short while. I have two carrier treasures. You will be allowed to split them among you after the battle."

Apart from him and the nine mayors present, there were still twenty-five mayors elsewhere.

Shortly after his call for help, six cities appeared in the sky.

A burly man appeared atop one of them and asked, "Young friend, you better not be the type to go back on your words. We will do our best, but we will withdraw when our lives are in danger."

Su Yu replied, "Of course. Two carrier treasures for your assistance. I only need you to keep them occupied temporarily. You may withdraw if there is a danger of dying."

"Hahaha, you have a deal."

Suddenly, Xia Longwu chided, "Fool!"

He was furious. How could carrier treasures be wasted in this manner? He had already accepted the fact that he would fail. A few additional mayors wouldn't change anything. After all, these mayors weren't Invincibles.

They could only keep the Invincibles busy for a short time. Even if all thirty-five mayors were here, they would only be able to keep the Invincibles busy for a slightly longer time. The moment they received several injuries and their death qi started churning, they would withdraw. This was not a cause they would risk their lives for.

Su Yu said nothing. He wanted to be stubborn one more time.

The two carrier treasures would be the price for his peace of heart. He felt bad that he couldn't help. He had no way of forcing the stone statue to help.

He did consider teaching Xia Longwu the death qi reversal art, but there was no guarantee that Xia Longwu would be able to master it. Even if it was possible, would he be willing to become an ancient city mayor?

With the addition of six mayors, the situation improved slightly for Xia Longwu. However, he was still faced with five Invincibles. Despite his prowess, he was only a Pseudo Invincible.

If these Invincibles hadn't been wary of the desperate attack he might launch before dying, they would have killed him by now. Instead, they were slowly tiring him out. His Sky Sundering Saber was impossibly strong, but not strong enough to prevail over five Invincibles.

That was understandable. Not even Pseudo Emperors could handle five Invincibles easily. They were only wary of Xia Longwu because he was clearly fighting with his life on the line. Each strike of his was an attack with all his strength. They only needed to drag the battle long enough to completely exhaust him. The result of the battle had already been decided.

***

“The result of the battle has already been decided.”

Near the portal.

Marquis Xia was also mumbling the same words to himself.

He continued speaking to himself, as though he was losing his mind.

"Nephew, why are you doing it so far away?" He continued grumbling, "Why do I have to be unlucky enough to have a nephew like you? So be it."

At that moment, his blood essence ignited. A River of Time spilled out of thin air beside him.

This was a critical moment.

After this, it would be all up to fate. This was the most he could do for his nephew. Hopefully...luck would be on their side.

As the River of Time grew, Marquis Xia started growing thin. Drop after drop, his blood essence burned away. He wanted to turn around to take one last look at the Human Realm, but all he saw was a portal.

He continued grumbling.

More. More...

He needed to wait until his nephew was further in the advancement. Finally, he felt the aura of his nephew dropping. If he waited any longer, his nephew would die.

Marquis Xia started moving toward Xia Longwu. He was only a Pseudo Invincible. There wasn't much he could do. He couldn't participate in the battle. He couldn't help Xia Longwu. He didn't even have an ancient city to rely upon.

He didn't know how much time he could buy his nephew. He only knew he wanted to try. Was this not why the Xia Family had sacrificed so much? They only wanted Xia Longwu to succeed in his dao affirmation.

Marquis Xia would not allow Xia Longwu to die, not after he had served as the faithful scapegoat for Xia Longwu for so many years. He continued flying toward Xia Longwu. Finally, the last drop of his blood essence was burned away. The River of Time around him had grown extremely wide.

Not far away, an Invincible who was in the middle of pursuing Niu Baidao looked at him. Was he trying to affirm his dao as well? The Invincible was doubtful. It didn't seem to be the case. Instead, it looked more like Marquis Xia was trying to kill himself. But that was quite an impressive River of Time.

Niu Baidao, who was busy running from the Invincible, was cursing nonstop when he noticed Marquis Xia. He was greatly surprised, but he soon recalled something as his surprise turned into hesitation.

Marquis Xia looked at them and grinned, "I'm not affirming my dao. Don't misunderstand me. I'll move away. You can keep going after Niu Baidao. Look, he's still affirming his dao..."

"Me?"

Niu Baidao was left quite speechless. What an asshole.

But...so be it. This guy...and the Xia Family...

Niu Baidao didn't know what to feel about this. Fine, fine. The brat was going to die soon so he might as well be generous and allow the brat to talk some shit one last time.

***

At the same time, Xia Longwu was shining brightly as the fusion of his three bodies was coming to an end. However, his aura was dropping in power instead of increasing. Like a madman, he swung his saber repeatedly. His injuries grew heavier and heavier while the Invincibles continued toying with him.

He roared madly, but he couldn't change anything. Even the mayors were preparing to withdraw. They were feeling quite powerless. This was hopeless.

It was time to give up.

There was no hope of success.

Su Yu watched silently as his saber qi transformed, but he was in no mood to pay attention to that.

He only knew that Xia Longwu was going to die.

Suddenly, Xia Longwu's expression changed as he roared furiously, "Piss off!"

He wasn't shouting at the Invincibles. Rather, he was shouting at one specific individual.

He roared with fury and sorrow.

"Go away! Xia Xiao'er, get away from me!"

"I'm dying..."

Right at that moment, the space around Xia Longwu rippled as a tiny opening appeared. Marquis Xia's voice rang out from the opening, "This hurts so much. I'm going to die, Nephew...We're related by blood...can...can you be decisive...and faster?"

Xia Longwu continued roaring madly. A look of utter despair covered his face. With a rumble, he ripped the opening in space bigger and stepped through it. Almost at the same time, Marquis Xia, who was still far away, grimaced and turned translucent before fading away. In his place, Xia Longwu appeared.

Meanwhile, Marquis Xia reappeared at Xia Longwu's previous position.

Bloodline Transfer.

With the power of bloodline, the two had switched positions. Far away from the Sea of Stars, Xia Longwu roared before charging at the nearby Invincible with madness.

"Xia Xiao'er! Screw you and your ancestors!"

Xia Longwu wailed with sorrow. That was his uncle. His uncle had swapped their positions. All for the sake of buying a little bit of time for him. The distance between them was big enough to take even Invincibles some time to cross.

"Heh...my ancestors...are your ancestors as well."

At this point, Marquis Xia had turned so thin that he might as well be a bag of bones. He was only a Pseudo Invincible. Swapping their locations across such a vast distance had taken him a lot. Even as a Pseudo Invincible, he had been forced to ignite all his blood essence to do this. If Xia Longwu was already an Invincible, he wouldn't have been able to do so.

He grinned. Despite his dire straits, he actually looked rather handsome. The previous number one pretty boy of Great Xia seemed to have returned.

Handsome and carefree.

Meanwhile, the faces of the Invincibles around him fell.

"Damn it!"

Boom!

With a punch, Marquis Xia was blasted apart. He did not care one bit as he laughed, "Are you angry? Are you furious? Come, come and hit me! My nephew...will succeed! But damn it! This...hurts so much! Ahhh...this hurts!"

He wailed in pain. This was really painful. From now on, his nephew would no longer have a professional scapegoat. That nephew better succeed. His nephew was very far away. But it wouldn't take these Invincibles too long to reach his nephew again. He felt quite useless. Even after sacrificing his life, he could only buy a tiny bit of time for his nephew.

As his consciousness dimmed, his deceased elder brother appeared in his vision. He thought to himself that he had been taking great care of his elder brother's son, even if that son was quite a disobedient young man.

He heard someone calling him. He even saw that annoying Old Madam Wu beating him up just for a marriage proposal.

She should be grateful he had even deigned to ask for Wu Yuehua's hand in marriage. How could she beat him up instead of thanking him?

He also saw General Zhao's ugly expression. Why was that ugly bastard glaring at him? The ugly bastard should be grateful for the interest he had shown Zhao Mingyue. After all, she wasn't that young anymore.

He also saw Administrator Hu with that signature fake smile, telling him that Hu Pingxin's heart was already occupied and he should look elsewhere for a match...

What the fuck was that?

How dare that bastard reject him?

Was he not handsome?

Was he not strong?

How was Liu Wenyan better than him?

What did he even do apart from sending three marriage proposals at the same time?

Why? Why did all of them reject him? He was the son of Great Xia King! He was Marquis Xia! How could they reject him?

"Liu Wenyan...Fuck you!"

With his last bit of strength, Marquis Xia roared his final words.

Why must that bastard occupy their hearts if he was uninterested in them?

Marquis Xia was very interested in them.

He swore that he wasn't this chubby in the past. He was very handsome.

Far away, Xia Longwu was attacking madly as he shed tears of blood.

His uncle...was dead.

He had taken everything into consideration. Everything...except the fact that his cowardly uncle would suddenly grow courageous.

"Die!"

The Invincible facing him was horrified. How did Xia Xiao'er turn into a crazy Xia Longwu? Yes, Xia Longwu was already heavily injured. But his blade was still terrifying. He was too strong.

"Fuse!"

With a furious bellow, Xia Longwu completed the fusion of his three bodies before swinging his saber. The Invincible in front of him couldn't help but curse inwardly. Why him? This had nothing to do with him! The Invincibles who had attacked Xia Longwu were elsewhere! He was only here for Niu Baidao, not Xia Longwu!
