Chapter 40 - The Rain Is Coming

XuanHuan 7

Witnessing he death of Ba Ziliang, Ba Wuli lost his mind instantaneously and launched the attack flagrantly.
Bu Wuli was a Vital Spirits at the ninth level. The moment he made the move, there appeared an afterimage of a unicorn, quickly followed by a violent blast of air like a tornado that headed towards Nie Tian.
Nie Tian turned around almost instantly. He looked at hostile Ba Wuli, put on a bitter smile and remained motionless.
"Bang. Bang."
Two dull sounds were heard almost at the same time. The next thing people knew was that Ba Wuli was sent into the air like a kite breaking free of the strings and then plummeted onto the ground.
It turned out that Mo Tai and Nie Wenyuan attacked Ba Wuli when he jumped into the air.
The two had anticipated that Ba Wuli would hurt Nie Tian, so they were cautious against him.
The Vital Spirits at the ninth level could not even strike back in response to the joint attack of two Phenomenalities.
Mo Tai glared at Ba Wuli with cold eyes, "Ba Wuli, how bold of you to brazenly violate the rule of the Competition. Do I mean nothing to you?"
Everyone shifted their focus onto the shocking episode.
Most of them did not expect Ba Wuli to launch a surprise attack against Nie Tian. Moreover, they did not foresee that Mo Tai and Nie Wenyuan would counterattack in a forceful way.
Mo Tai, as the Magistrate, was amicable and easygoing in the impressions of Moyang City, hence high reputations.
But he would not have anyone getting away with crossing his bottom line.
And the bottom line now was that no one could hurt Nie Tian.
"Old Bandit. Your son's shameless. And you're even worse. Nie Tian and Ba Ziliang were supposed to play fair. Save the armor and the Boost Pill, the murder attempt you demonstrated openly is a disgrace of yourself." Nie Wenyuan thundered. He would do whatever it took to protect Nie Tian.
But Mo Tai and Nie Wenyuan both handled it properly, for they did not kill Ba Wuli.
If they did so, the Bloody Bats might attack in advance, which would be unworthy.
Ba Wuli got to his feet, with mud and embarrassment on his face. He was not badly injured.
"Ba Wuli, what do you want to say?" Mo Tai dared not kill him, but a threat would be necessary.
Ba Wuli's chest heaved, which clearly showed that he was containing the anger.
His most beloved son was dead; the murder was standing before him; and the revenge was the least option right now.
No one could understand a heartbroken and helpless father.
There was an instant when Ba Wuli would dash off and fight against Mo Tai to death.
But he refrained himself.
He knew he was no more than a Vital Spirits at the ninth level, but Mo Tai was a solid Phenomenality. The gap of a level would separate a serpent and a dragon.
With no exaggeration, even ten Ba Wulis would make no match to Mo Tai.
And in light of the presence of Nie Wenyuan, even the entire Bas launch the attack, they would be asking for trouble.
The fury rendered his face bloodshot.
Trembling, Ba Wuli uttered word by word, "I've lost my son. That was...a moment of impulse. Please be understanding and have mercy on me."
He said so as he bowed humbly.
Such a move under the circumstance was a fine display of the sophistication of Ba Wuli.
The oral apology was already drowned out by the mad roar in himself, "Nie Tian, Mo Tai, Nie Wenyuan, I wanna see you kneel down before after tonight. I wanna see you wish you were dead. I wanna see you buried with my son."
Mo Tai frowned a little bit at the sight of Ba Wuli, his brain computing swiftly the gains and losses.
Judging from what Ba Wuli had done today, his attempt to usurp the power was textbook.
If Mo Tai put aside his mercy, he could have claimed the life of Ba Wuli.
However, Mo Tai thought it was wrong day to see situation get nasty.
The Bloody Bats must be observing the Competition furtively. If Ba Wuli got killed now, it might get under the skin of the Bloody Bats.
After full consideration, Mo Tai put on a faint smile, "Mr. Ba, given that you just lost your son and what you did was your first time, I pardon you."
Ba Wuli stood where he was, trying to squeeze a smile which nonetheless looked uglier than crying.
He bowed slightly, "Thank you for your pardon, Mr. Magistrate. I can't thank you too much for what you have done to me. I will return the favor someday."
The gloomy tone of Ba Wuli was like making a death threat.
Of course Mo Tai could read the threat from his lines. But he responded with a plain smile, "Never mind."
"See you." Ba Wuli uttered two emotionless words, turned around to get the carcass of Ba Ziliang and walked away step by step.
The minions of the Bas followed.
Mo Tai caught the family leaving and gave a gentle sigh, "Why would you collude with the Bloody Bats?"
The crowd saw them off in amazement. None could expect to Competition to end up with this.
Now that Ba Ziliang was killed and the Bas left, the Kung Fu Competition of Moyang City announced the official closing and that the first prize went to Nie Tian.
But Nie Tian would not care about the title. Instead, he just honored the agreement between him and Tang the Thirteenth by claiming Ba Ziliang's life.
"Nie Tian, you won." Mo Ruxi skipped and jumped to Nie Tian, like a rejoiced bird.
She knew that the victory was in the bag, but the wonderfulness was out of her expectation.
It amazed Mo Ruxi that Nie Tian should defeat Ba Ziliang without any injury.
Now, she was aware of the unbridgeable gap between her and Nie Tian.
Nie Tian stared at Mo Ruxi, for he was fully absorbed in the stunning beauty of the young girl before him. He could not help touching her cheek, "I can't afford to lose before your eyes."
Mo Ruxi blushed and looked even more adorable.
Nie Tian would waste no more time. He greeted Mo Tai and led the Nies to leave first.
The Kung Fu Competition of Moyang City had come to an end but the real battle had yet to begin.
Mo Tai kept several distinguished family masters.
Now that the Bloody Bats would launch the attack tonight, Mo Tai would resort to violence if necessary to keep them in the Magistrate's Mansion as helping hands.
On the Conference Hall of the Bas.
Xiong Ba, director of the Bloody Bats, sat tight on the main seat, with his chest heaving, which revealed his rage.
"Mr. Director, Ziliang's dead. Please avenge for my son." Ba Wuli knelt down before Xiong Ba, tears streaming down his face.
"Cracks." The tea cup in Xiong Ba's hand broke into pieces. He stood up with a start and put on a pair of bloodshot eyes, "Damn it. Ba Ziliang is a young talent and a promising star. How come that he should get killed. An insignificant family head is literally disrupting the order. No vengeance, no reputation of the Bloody Bats."
"Mr. Director, let's go inside the Magistrate's Mansion tonight and execute Mo Tai. Then we go to the Nies and wipe them all out." Ba Wuli's eyes were bloodshot and his reason was lost due to the strong resent.
He could not hate Nie Tian too much!
His three sons were all ruined by Nie Tian.
The first son was disabled, the second dead and the second retarded.
Ba Wuli would chop Nie Tian into pieces and dumped his ashes into garbage cans.
"Mr. Director, from my point of view, that Nie Tian guy is very incomprehensible. Why don't we check this guy out?" Liu Yishou, deputy director, was more cautious and calm.
Ba Wuli stood up immediately, "Mr. Director, I know him very well. Don't bother to check him out. He grows up in Moyang City. Three years ago, you have sent fellows to wipe several members of the Nies for my family. And the deceased included Nie Tian's father. Besides, Nie Tian's vital veins were fully destroyed during the ambush."
"He has been a loser for three years. But he became rather powerful half a month ago, which, in my opinion, must be related with certain adventure. And he must now possess different powerful martial formulas and martial skills; otherwise he could not have been so formidable."
"Adventure, huh?" Xiong Ba's eyes lit up, then he laughed in a creepy way, "A loser that got his vital veins destroyed came to a rise within half a month, well, I must know what adventure encountered him."
Ba Wuli hurried to add, "Mr. Director, as long as you avenge for me, you can take whatever you like in the Magistrate and the Nie's Mansion, and possess the martial formulas and skills in Nie Tian. All I ask is vengeance for my sons."
Ba Wuli had observed the moves of Nie Tian, and he knew the martial skills manoeuvred by Nie Tian were not in the possession of the Nies.
Nie Tian must have commanded a load of powerful martial skills, which was undoubted.
However, it was beyond Ba Wuli as to why Nie Tian could master so many martial skills within such a limited time period.
Furthermore, these martial skills ranked high. Could it be that Nie Tian was a natural for Kung Fu?
"Nie Tian, I don't care whether you are a natural for Kung Fu. But you kill my son, and I want you dead." Ba Wuli displayed a twitched and terrifying look that seemed to have conveyed his inner voice.
"Mr. Director, I still think Nie Tian was too incomprehensible. Besides, we have been exposed. So we can never be too careful in the action tonight." Liu Yishou was worried all the same.
Xiong Ba waved his hands, "You don't bother to persuade me. I've made up my mind. The action tonight goes as planned. Control the Magistrate's Mansion and exterminate the family of Nie."
Xiong Ba was now fascinated with the martial formulas and martial skills in the possession of Nie Tian; hence there was no chance that he would listen to Liu Yishou.
Liu scowled, feeling increasingly anxious.
"Mr. Director, I volunteer to collect intelligence of the Magistrate's Mansion." stepped out Tang the Thirteenth who had been quiet.
Xiong Ba glanced at him, "Well, if it doesn't trouble you. Keep me informed of any news."
"Aye." promised Tang the Thirteenth. His body then turned into an afterimage and was gone.
Xiong Ba saw off Tang the Thirteenth and an idea came up.
Now that Ba Ziliang was dead, Tang the Thirteenth would be the only option to enter the general department in his recommendation.
As a matter of fact, Tang the Thirteenth outreached Ba Ziliang in terms of talent and power, hence more suitable to serve in the general department of the Bloody Bats.
The reason why Xiong Ba chose Ba Ziliang over him was that he had some attempt at Tang the Thirteenth.
Xiong Ba knew that Tang the Thirteenth was born with the abnormal eyes. He wanted them, so he would keep him. When the time was right, he would take the abnormal eyes to his use.
But in light of the death of Ba Ziliang and the absence of young talents in the Branch, Tang the Thirteenth had to take the place of Ba Ziliang.
It was a common practice for the branches to send young talents to the general department routinely. And severe punishment will come along whenever the recommended guys were disqualified or deemed to occupy the quota.
Xiong Ba dared not mess with the General Department, hence the only option, Tang the Thirteenth.
But what Xiong Ba did not know was that serving in the general department was exactly Tang the Thirteenth's wish.[原文是

定期向总舵推荐少年天才,这是血蝠门每个分坛必须做的事情,如果推荐的人很差劲,有滥竽充数之嫌的话,那就要受到总舵的严厉惩罚。

熊霸可不敢惹怒总舵,所以只能让唐十三进入总舵。

但是熊霸不知道的是,进入总舵,这正是唐十三想要的!]
Tang the Thirteenth went out of the Ba's Mansion and onto the street of Moyang City.
The sky looked gloomy, signifying the advent of a tempest.
"The clouds are accumulating and the rain is coming." sighed Tang the Thirteenth as he curled up his mouth.
