Wu Xiong was watching the battle between Guan Yue and Ma Tao, wondering just how strong Guan Yue really was. He knew that Guan Yue and his group would not give up until they achieved their goals, but they would absolutely not agree to their unreasonable demands. The Watchmen were merely a small faction, lacking the depth to support the challenges that the alliance between Lion's Pride and the Watchmen would face.
He saw thousands of Lion's Pride Disciples cheering and rallying for Xiao Jiang and Ma Tao. Guan Yue realized he could not delay any longer; otherwise, the morale of Lion's Pride would continue to rise. High morale for Lion's Pride would complicate future management. Thus, Guan Yue decided to end the fight immediately.
Guan Yue shouted, "Everyone from Lion's Pride, listen up! I am about to end this battle. Is there anyone else who dares to fight? Otherwise, we will take over Lion's Pride right away."
As soon as he finished speaking, Guan Yue struck Ma Tao with a palm, injuring him instantly. Ma Tao was taken by surprise; he did not expect Guan Yue's strike to possess such overwhelming force that he could not muster even a hint of resistance.
What kind of power was this?
He did not know, and neither did Guan Yue. His strength contained two types of Willpower: the Willpower of Buddha and the Willpower of Demon. These two types of Willpower had been nurtured and cultivated through rebirth, ultimately returning to Guan Yue through sacrifice, allowing him to embody both forms of Willpower simultaneously. The emergence of these two types of Willpower depended on Guan Yue's control over Source Power, where one complemented the other.
Thus, once Guan Yue intentionally controlled Source Power, it became difficult for ordinary Disciples to contend with him, just as Ma Tao felt. Ignoring Ma Tao, Guan Yue walked directly toward Wu Xiong: "Elder Wu, what do you say? We Watchmen are truly going to take over your Lion's Pride. If you disagree, you can come and fight us; if you have no strength left to battle, then there is no need for hesitation."
Seeing that Ma Tao had already been defeated and Xiao Jiang was being suppressed by Lat's Hand without any chance to retaliate, the thousands of Lion's Pride Disciples fell silent.
Time seemed to stand still.
It was only now that they became aware that the Watchmen were indeed here to take control of Lion's Pride! They had this capability. With just two people, they could directly crush Lion's Pride.
"Who is making such noise here? Quite a bold claim!" A furious roar echoed from the sky. Wu Xiong's face immediately lit up with joy. He had not expected that the last remaining Antique of Lion's Pride would finally make an appearance.
For many years, there had been no news of him; Wu Xiong and the others thought the old man had long since passed away. Who would have thought that under significant pressure facing Lion's Pride, the old man had finally returned.
Upon realizing the identity of the newcomer, thousands of Lion's Pride Disciples erupted in cheers once again as they prepared to confront the anger from their adversaries.
“Watchmen seek death, must be severely punished.”
“Lion's Pride will win, Ancestor is invincible.”
“Eliminate Watchmen, take control of Watchmen.”
“Must severely punish Watchmen, if Watchmen do not surrender, let it be their doom.”
Jin Xi immediately ran to Guan Yue's side. She sensed the other's strength, and Lat's Hand also recognized the power of the newcomer. He quickly defeated Xiao Jiang and returned to Guan Yue's side, saying, “Guan Yue, how about we go together? Otherwise, it will be difficult to handle.”
Jin Xi angrily said, “Senior Brother, let me give it a try. Maybe I can win.”
It was the first time Guan Yue heard Jin Xi speak with such uncertainty, realizing she lacked confidence. However, Guan Yue felt more confident in himself. He told Lat's Hand and Jin Xi, “As long as you keep an eye on the others, I will deal with this old man. His strength is only at the peak of the Mysterious Heaven Realm.”
This time, Lat's Hand did not dare to show off. He and Jin Xi immediately flew to the side to monitor the entire battlefield and prevent the impact from Lion's Pride.
Guan Yue respectfully addressed the hovering Antique, saying, “Senior, today we Watchmen come to incorporate Lion's Pride. We aim to consolidate our two factions' strength and form a force in the Waydao Empire, rapidly expanding our influence so that our future endeavors can shine even brighter. If we continue as we are now, in a hundred years we will still be a small force with no hope of establishing a larger territory in the Dragon Python Celestial Domain. For development and growth, this merger is imperative; I hope the senior will support us.”
Antique laughed heartily before coldly snorting, “Kid, since you have come, let's settle this today. Your so-called Watchmen will merge with our Lion's Pride. I declare that from today on, Watchmen are disbanded.”
Guan Yue replied again, “Please see the situation clearly, Senior. It is we Watchmen who will take over Lion's Pride, because we are a team moving towards the sun, full of vitality and progressive strength, while Lion's Pride is already in decline. We can lead both factions to a glorious tomorrow. As long as we have this strength.”
Antique retorted angrily, “That’s simply not true; everything relies on strength. Kid, I don’t want to bully you, but today’s matter must be resolved through strength. You brought so many people here just to use force. I propose a fair fight between us; the winner takes over the loser. I won’t reason with you anymore; it must be this way.”
Guan Yue chuckled and said, “Indeed, Senior should not go back on your word.”
Antique also chuckled and replied, “A gentleman’s word is his bond; I have never gone back on my word in my life. Come on, you can send anyone to fight; I’ll take them all.”
"The old senior's righteousness, the future of both factions rests on this battle. Everyone listen carefully, today I will fight against the old senior, concerning the future of Watchmen and Lion's Pride. This matter is of great importance and cannot be taken lightly; all of you are witnesses. Now we swear, with heaven above and earth below, a gentleman's oath must be kept. If not, we shall be condemned by thousands and shamed by all. Let all Divine Lords, land deities, past gods, and spirits in heaven bear witness. If there is any violation of this oath, may heaven punish us, may the earth destroy us, may our souls perish, and may we never attain rebirth!"
Guan Yue spoke with righteous fervor, his voice filled with emotion and intensity, which only made Antique look down on him even more. To him, Guan Yue was just a self-torturing little brat making a big fuss over nothing.
However, Wu Xiong secretly marveled at Guan Yue: could this kid really have the ability to defeat Antique? Only then would he truly possess the capability to challenge Lion's Pride without any risk. Only then would Guan Yue be considered normal; only then would Watchmen have the qualification to truly suppress Lion's Pride and merge with it. Thus, he felt anxious—if Antique lost, would Watchmen really take over?
Antique and Guan Yue stood facing each other, both on high alert. A thick layer of fog surrounded Antique, obscuring his appearance but emanating a strong aura reminiscent of ancient tombs that evoked thoughts of corpses and death. Yet the true Origin Energy radiating from his body was terrifying.
Guan Yue knew he was younger and that the old senior wouldn't act unless he did first. So he summoned enough Source Power to contend with the peak of Mysterious Heaven Realm and pushed it towards Antique.
Antique's appearance gave a boost of confidence to the thousands of Disciple from Lion's Pride; they had blind faith in him. But soon after, they witnessed their Antique being pushed back by Guan Yue's steady advance!
A gasp of surprise erupted. The thousands of Disciple from Lion's Pride couldn't believe their eyes; their revered elder had been pushed back by a single palm strike from Guan Yue.
Antique felt quite frustrated as well; Guan Yue had indeed used energy—an attack method that took him hundreds of years to master—but now Guan Yue had already learned it, and his attacking energy exceeded what Antique could withstand. Continuing further would serve no purpose.
Thus, Antique said nothing and simply walked away!
Once Antique vanished from sight, the worries of Watchmen dissipated entirely. Guan Yue had forced back the elder from Lion's Pride, boosting the morale of Watchmen’s Disciple who cheered loudly in celebration.
"Lion's Pride is finished; Watchmen has achieved a complete victory!"
"Watchmen will take over Lion's Pride; Watchmen is invincible."
Meanwhile, all the Disciple from Lion's Pride fell silent, their eyes turning towards Wu Xiong.
Wu Xiong immediately convened a discussion with all the elders present. They were all dissatisfied; how could a mere Watchman possibly swallow up the vast Lion's Pride? It was utterly absurd. However, the recent display had left them speechless, as even Lion's Pride's Antique had been driven away. Now, who could stop Guan Yue?
The seven or eight elders deliberated for a long time, and Guan Yue, growing impatient, said, "The gambling battle has concluded. We have not killed any of you. If you still wish to deny this, we will formally warn you. If you remain obstinate and resist to the death, we will unleash a massacre and thoroughly eliminate anyone who dares to resist!"
Guan Yue's voice echoed in the ears of everyone present, righteous and powerful.
After much difficult discussion, the elders of Lion's Pride finally decided that all disciples of Lion's Pride could freely choose to join the Watchmen, leave Lion's Pride, or stay. If they chose to remain in Lion's Pride, the organization would do its utmost to protect those disciples.
Once this decision was announced, only a few dozen individuals chose to join the Watchmen—those who had been oppressed within Lion's Pride. They were unwilling to stay and immediately entered the ranks of the Watchmen.
Additionally, over a hundred people chose to leave Lion's Pride. The events of the day had completely tarnished Lion's Pride's reputation, and they felt it was meaningless to continue staying.
The majority of the remaining disciples opted to stay with Lion's Pride.
Guan Yue did not agree with this outcome!
Lion's Pride had violated the terms of their earlier agreement.
What Guan Yue wanted was for the Watchmen to take full control of Lion's Pride!
Thus, Guan Yue declared, "Anyone who wishes to leave Lion's Pride may do so immediately. However, those who choose to remain must accept the management of the Watchmen. There are no other options."
