The Legend of Divine Destiny
LTI 81 - Shen Lao vs Hao Fan

“The young man surnamed Shen Lao has abilities under the Flower Fairy and Snow Goddess, but he is a champion favorite.”

“Law Stage Great Warrior against Early Stage Great Swordsman. It's interesting.”

The audience was talking about Shen Lao and Hao Fan. Many spectators did not know the true figure of Shen Lao. Moreover, Shen Lao had yet to show his true ability.

She Bai explained the rules of the match to Shen Lao and Hao Fan, finished explaining immediately She Bai signaled Shen Lao and Hao Fan to keep his distance.

“Alright, the match between Shen Lao of the Nine Treasures Phoenix against Hao Fan of the Southern Spear Fortress begins!” Right after She Bai started the match, Hao Fan spun a golden spear that had the size of a dragon and darted quickly unsheathed his spear.

Shen Lao did not dodge, but stepped on Hao Fan's beloved golden spear with his right foot filled with deep energy.

“Brother Shen, how dare you step on my beloved spear?!” Hao Fan smiled smirked and frowned, then spun his spear and unleashed a barrage of attacks on Shen Lao.

The gusts of wind from each of Hao Fan's spear thrusts shocked the audience, yet they were all more shocked by Shen Lao's movements that were so agile as to avoid Hao Fan's spear thrust.

“Are you just going to dodge, Brother Shen? I hate people who aren't serious about fighting!” Hao Fan's spear instantly emitted a golden-white glow before directing it at Shen Lao.

“I just want to see for yourself your ability.” Shen Lao smiled faintly and unleashed a huge amount of energy, then created a thousand invisible swords.

All the earth warriors who saw it instantly trembled in admiration. However, Shen Lao's ability was beyond expectations, especially when stopping Hao Fan's attack that made the middle arena of the field hollow.

“How is it possible? Are you an earth warrior?” Hao Fan stared intently at Shen Lao and seemed to be in disbelief at the young man who was the same age as him having high abilities.

“Do you think?” Shen Lao swung his hand, as soon as Hao Fan's body was covered in incision wounds.

The young man from the Southern Spear Fortress did not give up so easily and tried to dispel and fend off any invisible sword that pointed at him.

When injured Hao Fan actually smiled, “I feel proud to see a young man my age is a genius. Besides you're not arrogant, Brother Shen, you look cool, you're unlucky. I will surpass my limits and defeat you.”

Hao Fan unleashed a large amount of energy, then flowed it on his golden spear before spinning his spear creating a whirlwind like a storm.

Shen Lao flicked his finger and retrieved the Night God Sword from the Infinite Space Seal.

“Alright, then I won't hold back, Brother Hao.” Soon Shen Lao poured his profound energy on the Night God Sword to avenge Hao Fan's spear technique.

“The First Technique of Night God Sword: One Light Tearing Darkness!”

As Shen Lao slashed his sword, instantly everyone who had just seen Shen Lao's fight was shocked.

The two techniques in the match arena clashed against each other creating shock waves, until the entire match arena was covered in dust.

“Sial, I can't see it!”

“This match is very interesting, it's a pity that my vision can not penetrate these dust!”

Shen Lao and Hao Fan continued to launch relentless attacks. The two had exchanged attacks of over thirty attacks.

When Hao Fan was out of breath because he was unable to keep up with Shen Lao's movements, the young man from the Southern Spear Fortress was defeated.

The Night God Sword coiled around Hao Fan and Shen Lao calmly released a murderous aura that made Hao Fan depressed.

“You really beat me hard, Brother Shen. I need to practice more. I learned a lesson after fighting against you.” Hao Fan breathed a sigh of relief after saying what was on his mind right now.

But still the young man from the Southern Spear Fortress looked sad on his face.

“But losing really hurts..” Hao Fan almost cried and made Shen Lao speechless.

The flying She Bai observed the course of the match immediately descended and announced Shen Lao as the winner.

“Winner Shen Lao of the Nine Treasures Phoenix!”

Shen Lao extended his hand to Hao Fan, “Hao Fan, your lack of using a spear is numerous. You move using deep energy and sometimes do not process breathing, that makes you run out of energy when trying to keep up with my movements.”

Hao Fan greeted Shen Lao's helping hand and shook his hand, “If you think it's right too. Why I never thought about this before.”

Hao Fan laughed to himself, Shen Lao only smiled and shook his head.

“Sial, I was really stupid even almost crying.” Hao Fan rubbed his eyes and walked with Shen Lao towards the spectator bench.

Shen Lao stuffed both his hands into the pocket of his robe, “But I don't hate people like you, Hao Fan. Someday I need someone like you, if that time comes will you join me?”

Hao Fan frowned, “Join with you? You're talking about Brother Shen!”

Hao Fan responded to Shen Lao's words with a joke, while Shen Lao only smiled faintly and continued walking before sitting beside Mu Shang.

“You two are familiar. I'm surprised you can sit next to Shen Lao after losing and cry, Hao Fan.” Mu Shang looked at Hao Fan in surprise.

“I'm not crying.” Hao Fan dodged.

“What are you saying? Look, your eyes are watering!” Mu Shang shook his head, then turned his head towards Shen Lao.

“Shen Lao, by the way about Sister Ju's remark, is that true?” With a slight whisper, Mu Shang asked.

“Ah, the. They are both my wives.” Hearing that, Mu Shang gawked as if in disbelief but after repeatedly seeing Shen Lao's closeness to Chi Rong and Ling Qiuyu, everything was missed.

‘Sial, Shen Lao really amazes me!’ As Mu Shang was admiring Shen Lao, She Bai called out his name.

‘Other times I asked how to make a woman fall in love. No wait, what if Sister Xhialun would fall for Shen Lao? I can't let it!’ Mu Shang looked at Shen Lao elaborately before turning his gaze to look at his beloved girl.
