All Chapters of The Divine Martial Stars: Chapter 921 - Chapter 930

The blue steel blade of the dagger shimmered as it pricked through the fair and smooth skin of her throat, eliciting a slight dribble of blood as the cold and sharp edge of the steel threatened to slice deeper inside to claim her life. Clank! The curved dagger was flung out of Lan Yingying's grasp. "What do you think you're doing? Trying to escape all this mess that you've wrought upon my student by seeking death?" Li Mu uttered with frost. "What…?! W-What do you want, Master Li?" It was all Lan Yingying could do to not let her temper and anxiety get the better of her. But if she could dispel the gloom of suspicion that hung over her lover's head with the price of her own head, then she would gladly pay it. Li Mu ignored the question and instead looked at Shen Jia. "On your feet, son. You don't get on your knees and start bowing like a simple-minded dimwit. Or have you forgotten what I had tau

"I'm scared, Mummy!" Shen Xiaoyue's little daughter wrapped her arms around her mother's neck and buried her head in her mother's arms. Her son gripped the hems of his father's robes firmly. His other hand balled into a fist as he witnessed the destruction of his home and the impending doom of his family, his hate-filled gaze etching a memory that would never fade from his mind "Let me die here, husband. Take our children and run," Shen Xiaoyue said weakly to her husband. They had known something like this would happen. The atmosphere in the peaceful little hamlet had begun to change not long ago but no one expected that these holier-than-thou warriors would have the gall to intrude into their home and demand their blood -- including the children's. The tall, beefy, and stern Wan Sanqian -- traits which were seldom seen in lean, cunning, and calculative merchants -- flashed his wife a courageous grin. "Do you really thin

The highest summit of the mountain range to which the Mount of Divinity belonged stood tall and proud like a huge pillar that stood out from the ring of mountains that encircled it. The Great Five relentlessly mounted one assault attempt after another to no avail. The defensive force field just would not budge an inch, with or without the Champion of the Western Wildernesses intervening. What they expected to be a quick end with a coalition of this size and scale was clearly a big mistake. To top it off, the Creed of Divinity might have defenders hurt or wounded, but they had suffered no casualties yet. None of the injured were fatal enough and whenever a Creed of Divinity acolyte faced impending doom, a white flash of light from the main edifice of the Creed's stronghold would shoot up into the sky and arced sharply down and save the acolyte. The whole world knew what that was -- the Aspect of Vengeance himself saving the acolytes of

Li Mu's hand wandered once more to the hilt of his saber, which he gripped firmly once more. Another bolt of light came wailing out, shooting up into the like a comet. The searing white projectile slammed into the face of the dragon, plowing through its entire length and reducing it to mere confetti of energy dregs, leaving only slivers of lightning bolts crackling in their final protest before disintegrating. Song Mian crashed back to the ground with lees of electricity trailing in his wake. He managed to remain to stand, but the ordeal appeared to have weakened him as he reeled unsteadily, beaten and pale. "As I said, parlor tricks. If that's all you are, then this duel is over. You're so weak that you're not even worth drawing my weapon for," said Li Mu, overlooking his foe from the top of the inclination. Song Mian could barely say\ a word. He did not think that Li Zhiyuan's strength and power ha

"I'll do whatever it takes, whether you'll step over my dead body or not," Nie Renlong retorted gravely before he ended his sentence with an audible snort. "We had an agreement. A duel between the best champion of both sides. An agreement for a round of single combat to determine the outcome of this war and you renege on your word as soon as an outcome has been achieved? No. I am Nie Renlong, Grand Master and the Dragon of Arcusstone and I'll never count myself among the likes of such ignoble and perfidious folk like you." The fierce rebuke felt like a slap across the faces of the champions and warriors who wanted to lay a hand on Li Mu. "That was just a ruse. A diversionary tactic to stall for time while we bide our chance," Scoffed the Champion of the Western Wilderness."As if we can rest the outcome of such an important and crucial war on the shoulders of some unknown stranger. He might be defeated, but not the coalition. The Great Five coalitio
