Chapter 412: Temporarily Safe

Translator: chuchutrain Editor: DavidT, Rock
Li Xue even thought that for Ling Tian to constantly use tricks and plots to face off, or even to flee away from Justice was a pointless thing! If they were to combine their strengths, they could actually defeat Justice. She thought that it was because Ling Tian couldn't bring himself to trust her completely and thus chose to use his current method. Once their relationship got better, then it would be a piece of cake to handle this number one expert!

However, following her witnessing the might of Justice's strength even at the distance of over a few hundred feet, she could now fully appreciate the dominance Justice held over everyone! The little lass finally began to show a little fear! She suddenly felt that for her to be able to trick Justice that day was all because of a fluke! And even more so, she finally understood why even though Ling Tian knew she was willing to go all out to support him, he still refused to clash head-on with his enemy!

This sort of unparalleled strength, unrivaled on this world!

This Martial Order Medallion owner was indeed too frightening to behold!

Seeing Li Xue's extremely horrified appearance, Ling Tian immediately concluded that the shock this lass had experienced was definitely no small thing. He couldn't help but smirk to himself, but only let out a defeated smile as he spoke, "Surprising, right? While most of the people in legends don't match up in reality, Justice is someone where his reputation can't compare to meeting him in person, more imposing in flesh than in legends! He's a really difficult opponent to handle, and at least in near future, both of us are not his match!"

"Yes! This little sister here did not expect that this Martial Order Medallion owner could actually possess such earth-shattering might, Tian'ge, why would such an expert bother to chase you? You... you.." Right now, Li Xue didn't even try to hide her restraining fear towards Justice. However, displayed in her voice was not her fear of Justice, but rather a deep concern towards Ling Tian. This was because she could clearly feel that, with Justice's current cultivation, even if they were to work together, they would still not be his match. And with the request of the Martial Order Medallion, Ling Tian had to die no matter what! Did that mean Ling Tian had no chance to live whatsoever? This little lass began to worry!

It was as though Ling Tian's safety was more important than her own!

A sense of warmth entered Ling Tian's heart, as he smilingly gazed at Li Xue's worried expression. He couldn't resist stretching out his right hand, gently arranging her messed up hair as he warmly replied, "I might not beat him currently in martial skills, but he is far from being capable enough to kill me! It's alright, he won't be able to kill me. Besides, you were thinking on a wrong path earlier on. That heaven and earth-shattering force just now might be scary, but… hehehe… silly lass."

"But what?" Li Xue pressed on.

"It takes two hands to clap, silly lass!" Ling Tian laughed out as he began to walk again. "If the Above Heaven fellows did not use their full strength to receive his blow, while Justice might be unrivaled, he would still not be able to reach such a state! This is because that sort of strength is not something that a single person can actually unleash! So long as Justice is still by himself, he will never reach such a state!"

"So that's the case! Aiya, I'm too stupid…"Li Xue immediately hung her head in dejection, "That makes sense too, a person's meridians have a limited capacity, and no matter how strong Justice is, the meridians can never continuously expand. With his current skill, if he were to imbibe twofold of his current strength, then his meridians would definitely explode, hahahaha…" Li Xue joyously laughed, before realizing that something was wrong. She turned her head, only to realize that Ling Tian had suddenly stopped, and curiously turned to look at him.

He stood stock still in the middle of the plains, his eyes staring straight like lightning bolts! His eyes seem to hold a myriad of mysteries, and his face gradually grew stern.

"What… what's wrong?" Li Xue suddenly felt panicky. Could it be that she had accidentally said something wrong?

Ling Tian's mind was brewing. He did not know exactly what he was thinking about, he just felt a rumbling in his mind, a dizziness assaulting him, making him extremely uncomfortable.

Li Xue's words might seem harmless, but as a listener, he would naturally deliberate over that.

"A person's meridians will always have a limit."

"A person's meridians will always have a limit."

This simple sentence echoed in his brain again and again!

Simple, foreign yet familiar! As though this was a principle he had not heard in a long time!

A principle of his past life!

Ever since he had descended upon this world, his contact with the various pugilists couldn't be said to have been little, to the point that he himself was responsible for the annihilation of almost half of the Eight Great Families. Even the number one expert from the number one sect had engaged in conversation with him, and as for the number one Great Family, the Yu Family's Yu ManTian had also exchanged blows with him a few times! Through his five underlings, Ling Tian had also discovered a lot of snippets of information obtained from Yu ManTian, but no one had ever mentioned this particular theory!

But Li Xue so precisely hit the nail on the head! Was this a coincidence? Did such a coincidence even exist?

He shook his head vigorously, clearing his thoughts. The eyes which Ling Tian used to observe Li Xue now had a few more points of uncertainty.

"What's wrong?" Li Xue anxiously asked.

"Oh, I just recalled something. We have neglected one point." Ling Tian hid his suspicions in his heart, and laughed as he spoke, "Have you realized anything from the final earth shattering commotion earlier?"

"What have I realized? What can I realize? Justice's strength?" Li Xue seemed to be at a loss as she blankly replied.

"Haha..." Ling Tian laughed out as he swiftly thought of the proper words to say. "You're thinking in the wrong direction. I meant to say that we should be temporarily safe now."

"Temporarily safe? Oh, I get it!" Li Xue suddenly exclaimed, "That's right, if Justice's opponents can cause such an impact to occur, that would mean that the fifteen of them are all true exponents, and with their combined strength, it would definitely not be below that of Justice himself. With their current hatred toward him, they wouldn't let him go so easily, and Justice, being the number one expert, can't just merely flee the scene. Thus this battle would be a desperate one, which would probably end up with both sides suffering losses."

"That's right," A praising glint shone from Ling Tian's eyes. He had only come out this question as a last-minute topic, but Li Xue was actually able to infer so much in an instant, her intellect was definitely without question! "Make a guess, Justice vs the fifteen of them. Who would win?"

Li Xue immediately furrowed her brows and deeply pondered before saying, "It seems like the ultimate victor should still be Justice."

"Oh? Reason?" Ling Tian's brows shot up.

"I had originally thought that if both of them ended up with losses, then they would definitely have their vital energy damaged. At that time, we could be fishermen and take the chance to sentence Justice to death! However, with Justice having fought with you for quite a while, although you might have escaped quite a few times, he is also not someone who is all brawn and no brains. The blow earlier was definitely caused only by purely internal energy comparison." Li Xue carefully analyzed. "Thus, if the fifteen of them work together, and only manage to force Justice into this state, then it must be said that Justice has full confidence in this battle. He believes that he will not be hurt and can even get an advantage!"

"Haha, excellent! The opposing side has fifteen people after all. If anyone of them gets injured, then the advantage would definitely go to the side with more people. With Justice's capability, he would definitely be able to face off with them one on one, killing them off separately! Thus, if Justice dares to do such a move with all of them, it is a given that he has absolute confidence and certainty in himself!" Ling Tian finished off with a laugh.

"That's right, this is also what I have analyzed. However, there is a bottom line, that no matter how heaven-defying Justice is, he is definitely unable to leave uninjured! He might be the number one expert, but if he gets injured and wishes to continue pursuing me regardless, not only will his injuries not recover, but there's even the chance that our roles would change! Thus..."

Ling Tian concluded with finality, 'So long as Justice's wounds aren't fully healed, he won't appear in front of me. And for someone of Justice's level, he wouldn't easily get injured, hence once he receives an injury, it would be worse than normal! While he might be strong, for him to recover to the peak from an injury would require half a month to a full month! Within this time frame, we can plan out an elaborate scheme, targeting those people who wish to hit me while I'm down, and not have to worry about a blade hovering over my neck during this period!"

"Ah ha. Since that's the case, then what are you waiting for?" Li Xue let out a mesmerizing laugh before her face turned cold and she seriously spoke, "Tian'ge, what do you think of us getting rid of Justice while he's injured and recuperating? Would that not be settling the matter once and for all? Not leaving any blights behind?"

Ling Tian let out a bitter laugh at this suggestion, "I would want that more than you actually, but do you think that's remotely possible? Let's not talk about first finding him. Even if we manage to do so, can we get rid of him without suffering any injuries whatsoever?"

Li Xue could only let out a long sigh, and mirrored Ling Tian's bitter smile, "Only if we go for mutual destruction then can we probably kill him."

"That's right. If we corner him, and he chooses to burn his life force, then he would enter his peak state for a short period of time. While this might resign him to death, once he does so, none of those who corner him will be left alive!"

Ling Tian's expression was grave as he continued, "Furthermore, we can't confirm right now to what degree he will be injured upon ending the fight with the fifteen of them. Better to be cautious."

"Don't tell me that we have to wait till he comes after you? Then we'll be stuck at a spot again! Your cultivation can't possibly surpass him in the short run! This matter is a huge headache!" Li Xue furrowed her brows in frustration.

"Hehe, regarding this point, you can relax. I've made a bet with Justice, that if he can't kill me within half a year, then he would give up on his pursuit triggered by the Martial Order Medallion. Furthermore, he will owe me three favors!" Ling Tian winked before laughing suggestively.
