Ascension of the Immortal Asura

Chapter 533 - Savage Beatdown



Chapter 533 – Savage Beatdown

John stared up calmly at Lyeon as he heard his demands. He was almost inclined to give up his spot at first, but Lyeons overbearing attitude rubbed him the wrong way already.

'I had thought the main Heavenly Lightning Sect was filled with good disciples only, but there will always be those who desire power and status above all else. A pity.'

John sighed as he thought about this, although it wasn't too bad. Lyeon only desired the position of General and thought John unworthy of it. Such an action was reasonable, especially considering Thunderfist had deemed it acceptable.

"I'll pass," John replied calmly. "Now leave."

His voice was calm but confident, and his words couldn't help but shock most of the other disciples. From the front of the group, Rael and Lily watched on with great curiosity as to what was going to happen. They knew Thunderfist wouldn't have assigned John the position for no reason, and were looking forward to seeing what was going on.

"What did you say?" Lyeon replied coldly as his aura surged in power and pressed down on John. He had never expected John to not only be unaffected by his initial aura, but also so disrespectful. As such, he had greatly increased his aura to press down on John and intimidate him into relinquishing.

However, his plan did not go accordingly, as John continued to stand there calmly. However, John's eyes had narrowed and his expression had turned slightly cold as Lyeon was truly starting to piss him off.

"You heard me," John replied. "Leave."

Boom!

Lyeon's aura suddenly exploded out with full power, rattling the nearby ship and causing the other weaker disciples to back up from its power. John felt the full might of Lyeons aura press down on him, and couldn't help but be impressed by it. It was quite powerful, and even he had to use a bit of his power to resist it. 

A series of pained cries sounded out from next to John, and he quickly glanced over to see Chase, Adam, and Iris on their knees, holding their heads in pain. The aura from Lyeon was clearly not just limited to John, but also to his friends next to him.

Lyeon was clearly using such tactics to force John to concede his position. John's face instantly darkened as his rage filled eyes locked onto Lyeon's. Lyeon couldn't help but be taken back by the look he was seeing, although he quickly recovered and pressed down even harder with his aura. Adam, Chase and Iris groaned again as they struggled against the aura, but were unable to do so. Blood even began to seep from Adam's nose as the pressure started to become too much for him to handle, further igniting John's rage. 

"Give me your General spot, and I'll release my aura," Lyeon said to John, his voice demanding compliance. "If not, don't blame me for being heavy handed to both you, and your pitiful friends."

John's gaze shifted from Lyeon to Thunderfist in the distance, who was watching the entire thing unfold with amusement. 

"Let us out of the ship right now, or don't blame me for destroying it," John said to Thunderfist, his voice cold. Respect for Thunderfist and his ship was the only reason he had not brutally beaten Lyeon already.

Thunderfist's amused expression instantly changed, as his ship was his prized possession. He knew of John's savagery, and did not doubt what he was capable of based on the stories his older brother Thunderzen had told him.

While the ship would be able to withstand their battle for the most part, he didn't want a single inch of it scratched. The ship instantly lurched to a halt, floating above a desolate strip of land. 

Thunderfist waved his hand, and the door on the far end of the ship suddenly opened, allowing for John to exit. Lyeon smiled as he saw this.

"Trying to run? That won't save you from handing over your General titl-"

Boom!

John's aura suddenly exploded out with absolute power as he instantly unleashed his full strength. His hand clamped onto Lyeon's face before he could react, while powerful lightning flared from his hand and onto Lyeons face and body, paralyzing his movements as well. The crowd of disciples couldn't help but be stunned as they watched John drag Lyeon out of the ship by his face in an instant. 

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

A series of powerful sounds boomed from outside, stunning the disciples even further. After a moment of shock, they all raced forward towards the open door and stepped outside.

At the same time, Adam, Chase, and Iris recovered from Lyeons aura, and couldn't help but be pissed at what just happened. They all raced outside as well, eager to see the brutal beatdown to come. They knew John's strength, and what that meant for Lyeon after having pissed him off.

Thunderfist remained silent for a moment before he grumbled to himself and shook his head. He too stepped forward and appeared outside, making sure that no outside third parties interfered with his disciples.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

Each bang was followed by a wince of the disciples, who were almost unable to believe what they were seeing. In a large crater in the ground clearly formed by the two, Lyon laid flat on his back, his face battered and bruised. On top of him sat John, who repeatedly punched down with incredible force, further worsening the damage on Lyeon's face.

Bang!

Bang!

Bang!

A frenzied, powerful, and slightly sinister aura emanated from John as he savagely beat Lyeon, who was barely hanging onto his consciousness by a thread. Due to the surprise lightning attack that John had inflicted on him, he was still struggling to regain control of his movements. However, even if that had not happened, the only difference would have been that his beatdown was delayed by a minute or two.

John suddenly reached down and grabbed Lyeon by the neck, and threw him into the distance with great force. Lyeon's body sailed through the air for over a mile before slamming into a mountainside, shattering part of the mountain. The mountain exploded into a cloud of debris, while John took to the skies and sped directly towards Lyeon once again.

A figure suddenly appeared in the sky before him, blocking his pathway forward. John stopped as well, his heated gaze staring defiantly at Thunderfist. Thunderfist inspected John for a moment, before he nodded his head in an approving manner.

"That's enough. You've sent your message to Lyeon as well as the rest of the disciples watching," Thunderfist said. 

John wanted to push forward past Thunderfist, but he knew it was a completely futile effort. Now that Thunderfist had interfered, he could no longer make any more moves against Lyeon. However, he had shown both Lyeon and the rest of the disciples what happened if they messed with either him or his friends. 

Not only that, but Thunderfist clearly was not going to punish John for being so heavy handed, so that was already quite a courtesy from the Sect Leader.

With his message sent, John's aura faded away as he returned to normal. He flew back towards the ship, and the crowd of gathered disciples parted for him as he flew by. They watched him enter the ship once more, followed closely by his three friends. Their stunned gazes shifted back towards the distant mountain, as Thunderfist helped the barely conscious Lyeon make his way back to the ship.

After a brief moment of silence, a lone disciple couldn't help but speak out.

"What the hell just happened?"
