Against Heaven's Will

Chapter 109 Arise My Minions!



'Wait!'

Just as Tianshi was on her way out, Xuefeng caught her hand, stopping her.

'Yes, my love?'

'Take Ming with you,' Xuefeng proposed, confusing both his wives.

'Why? Don't you trust me?' Tianshi asked as she rubbed his inner palm. 'I know I can win.'

'I trust you, but I want my mind to be at peace. Let Ming follow you and cover just in case. Treat it as my selfish request. She doesn't need to fight but she can at least watch over you,' Xuefeng pleaded.

'But I can't enter inside her. I'm not her Fate Spirit,' Ming pointed out.

'That doesn't matter. Just follow her and pretend you are. If they have any doubts, just tell them you will stand on the side and let Tianshi battle. So many Participants have Fate Spirits, they can't forbid you to have your own,' Xuefeng suggested.

'Alright, I will do it for my baby,' Tianshi finally agreed and kissed him deeply, confessing out loud, ���Love you~"

Knowing she is making the audience wait, Tianshi let go of his hand and flew out of the waiting lobby, waving at him from the distance.

'I love you more.'

His own confession made her smile as her wings swung faster, shooting her above the stages. Ming followed right after, keeping a short distance no matter how fast she flew.

"There she is! Those signature wings! You know in an instant they were a pair made in heaven!"

Just as she was seen, the crowd cheered loudly as the Commentator announced her entry. Even her face was seen on the display, showing her beautiful smile to everyone. Tianshi couldn't help but waved at the crowd, showing her gentle nature which rewarded her even more cheers.

"Although some of you might want to watch the battle of the top ten Seeds, we prepared something special for you! Xiao Tianshi, the wife of the fastest match record holder, Liu Xuefeng! She will join us for our second match on the Main Stage! Let's hope for some equal match-up that will bring us lots of exciting moments!"

Only when Tianshi was nearing the Main Stage did the Commentator notice the second lady, Ming, going directing inside the stage with her.

"Huh? Isn't that one of Xuefeng's wives? Why is she followed Tianshi inside? Am I smelling some drama?" the Commentator questioned intrigued. "Let's connect with the Main Stage to have a closer look!"

"Miss Xiao?"

When Tianshi stepped on the Main Stage, the cheers of the crowds were silenced. Instead, she heard the Main Judge.

"What is this? You want me to fight two at the same time or what?" the confused female opponent called out in protest as well.

No one knew Ming's origin aside from Xuefeng and Tianshi so she wasn't worried, acting casually as they landed and walked up to the judge.

"Yes?" Tianshi replied to Sir Liu as if she did nothing wrong. "Is there a problem?"

Sir Liu glanced at Ming on her right. "Can I know who is the lady next to you? Only participants are allowed on the stage."

"Oh, I know. We are together," Tianshi replied as she pointed at Ming, "She is my Fate Spirit. Am I forbidden to have one?"

"From my understanding, we are free to use every Treasure, Bloodline, Spirit Artefact we own. Having a Fate Spirit is similar, providing you additional firepower," Tianshi added and gazed at her opponent, "She also has a Fate Spirit inside of her. Will you forbid her from using it or just pretend you don't see anything?"

Sir Liu frowned, probably not calculating such a situation.

"No, we wouldn't stop anyone from using her Fate Spirit abilities. Every trick in this Tournament is acceptable," Sir Liu clarified.

"Exactly. Let's not kid ourselves. Everyone knows about Fate Spirits. They are within us and more than half of the Participant has one. Just cause my Fate Spirit is powerful and can take a Physical Form, doesn��t mean I can't let her assist me. This way all Fate Spirit should be banned from the Tournament," Tianshi argued. "Isn't she one of my strength?"

"That is indeed true," Sir Liu nodded in approval and smiled bitterly, "But I can't be sure if she is your Fate Spirit or if she belongs to someone else for example. Would you mind showing proof that she is yours? If she appeared after the battle started, there wouldn't be any problems of course."

Ming who was silent the whole time finally spoke up.

"Hey, do you know how much effort and Fate Qi cost me to create a Physical Body? How about you turn yourself into Qi and then return back to your Physical Body, huh?"

Before he could even reply, Ming clicked with her tongue and walked to the side, right next to Sir Liu.

"Tsk, whatever, it's not like I wanted to help win such an easy fight away. Tianshi, I will just stand on the side. Will join you once you kill her. I will not interfere in the battle so a certain someone doesn't have problems," Ming said sarcastically before glancing at Sir Liu. "Is that fine, certain someone or do you require me to leave the Arena? If I help, you can just disqualify us if that can make you happier."

Sir Liu grinned amused and shrugged, "Alright, that's fine by me. Stay close to me then."

He flew above the girls to watch the battle from up close and Ming followed suit. If there was a point she had to interfere in the battle, the match would be over anyway.

"Are you ready? Do you want to say something to your opponent?" Sir Liu repeated the standard procedure.

"I'm ready," Tianshi nodded, having nothing to say to a dead person but her opponent didn't seem that quiet.

"You should have kept your Spirit. Let's see if she is fast enough to save you in time," the lady called out like a madwoman, combing her boyish black hair with her fingers.

"When you hear the gong, the battle will start."

The girls stared at each other for a few seconds as both prepared their weapons. Tianshi was graceful and elegant with her thin sword shining in the light of the sun while her opponent carried a double-edged axe, as if she only used brute force in battles.

Gong!

That theory turned out to be true. Double-edged axe brightened at the same time as the boyish lady lunged forward, teleporting right in front of Tianshi to catch her by surprise.

Ether Qi! Instant Teleportation!

Too bad, Tianshi was already gone, already knowing the attack was coming.

Swoosh!

The Axe cut through empty air, making the boyish lady stagger forward.

Clank!

Metallic clash resounded on the Main Stage as Tianshi struck from behind. Using the momentum, the boyish lady managed to pull off a quick block, trapping Tianshi's sword between two edges.

"Do you think you are the only one with Ether Element?" Tianshi asked, blinking behind to strike once again. This time it was the boyish lady who disappeared from the spot, dodging without hesitation.

"You are quick and can predict my attacks well. Not bad. I wonder how long till you make a mistake!" the boyish lady called out, already unleashing another attack.

Clank!

Tianshi's sword was already waiting to receive her strike.

"Try me. Let's see who has more Qi to waste," Tianshi replied with an inviting grin.

Tsk!

The boyish lady snickered and accepted the challenge.

Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank! Clank!

Sparks flew left and right as metal blades clashed but no matter where the axe struck, Tianshi was always there to respond, as if she knew about every move ahead of time.

"Bullshit!" the boyish lady cursed as her blade suddenly turned red, and exploded on the next impact.

BOOM!

Crimson flames covered Tianshi's body as the explosion blasting her tens of meters away to the other side of the stage.

"Fuck yeah! Finally a hit!" the boyish lady celebrated, lunging forward to finish Tianshi but then stopped abruptly.

Tianshi lifted herself up as if nothing happened with a smile on her face. Getting up, she brushed off her body, throwing the flames off her with her bare hands without even burning herself. Even her clothes weren't dirtied, all snow white and pretty.

"Oh no, you hit me. I'm so scared. My legs are literally shaking," Tianshi commented sarcastically as she picked up her sword and began walking back.

The boyish lady frowned, gripping her axe more tightly. Tianshi's legs were not even shivering, walking steadily.

"You know, my idea for this battle was to burn your Qi till there is nothing left and then kill you but that would take too long. You are like a monkey that will simply escape forever. I can't let that happen," Tianshi spoke as she stopped and crouched, taking a bit of the sandy dust from the stage.

"Stop bullshitting, it wasn't even half of my power! So what if you defended it! Your attack is as weak as a chicken, you can't beat me!" The boyish lady called out but she didn't rush this time, observing Tianshi first.

"Oh, that's true. I'm weak when it comes to attacking but thankfully, I filled that void just recently," Tianshi replied with excitement in her voice and glanced down at the sand on her palm. She tilted it, letting the sand spill on the ground as she called out happily.

"Arise my minions!"
