Against The Gods With An Anime System

Chapter 46 - Mesa's Resolve

Teleporting back into his room after thoroughly beating and humiliating Murong Yi, Mesa just went to lie down on his bed and stored Murong Yi's spear in his inventory. About 15 minutes later, Cang Yue showed up in his room.

"First off, congratulations on your victory. It was very much expected that you'd win. But did you really have to do it in such a flashy way?" Said Cang Yue while heaving a sigh.

"What other way is there than? Are you seriously telling me to be humble when I face someone so blatantly arrogant?!" Asked Mesa with fake look of shock on his face.

"Well… Maybe. Couldn't hurt, I guess." Said Cang Yue hesitantly.

"NO!! I shall not, for it is my destiny to show these arrogant people that there is always someone stronger than them and show them how wrong their arrogant ways are." Said Mesa in an overly proud way and standing there in an overly proud way.

Seeing him act this way, Cang Yue just looks at him for a few moments before he shakes her head in resignation and says: "You sure are enjoying this, aren't you?"

"I sure am!" Nods Mesa confidently.

Hearing Mesa not even bothering to hide his ulterior motives, Cang Yue just burst in laughter before she walks over to Mesa and wraps her arms around his neck. Before long she pressed her lips against Mesa's and they were just enjoying each other's warmth, until someone suddenly opened the door.

The door to the room was pushed open with a "bang", and a hearty voice, coupled with loud laughter, spread throughout the room. "Hahahaha! Uchiha Mesa, you little rascal, your performance today was simply amazing! As expected, you once again gave me a good shock. So no matter what, I have to personally hand you this Goldscale Dragon Transforming Pellet..."

The one who suddenly came into the room was Qin Wuyou and what he saw startled him, to say the least. He saw Cang Yue arms around Mesa's neck, while his arms were around her waist and their lips were locked together.

"Ah————" Cang Yue cried out in shock as she escaped from Mesa's embrace. She helplessly turned around and covered her face, which was currently flushed red, with her hands.

Mesa on the other hand turned to Qin Wuyou, pretty frustrated that he came in at such an inopportune time and without even knocking.

"Hasn't anyone ever told you to knock first before you barge into someone else's room!" bellowed out Mesa at Qin Wuyou, who was just dumbfounded at what he saw.

"I... I... I... I... I..." Qin Wuyou, one of the only few Chief Instructors of Blue Wind Profound Palace, was currently utterly dumbfounded. His lips were curved and his eyes were slanted as he revealed a terrified look. He stuttered: "I-I... en… entered the wrong room. Y-y-y-you... You two... go on... go on..."

Qin Wuyou said as he retreated. When he reached the door, he even fell onto the floor from tripping over the door's sill. It was obvious that he did not even turn to look at where he was going. After struggling to stand up, without even looking back at them, he booked it right out of there.

Completely embarrassed and flushed red at being caught red-handed, Cang Yue just kept her head down and walked straight out of the room, not even bothering to look back. Seeing her leave like that, Mesa just clicked his tongue in frustration and mumbling to himself: "F.u.c.k.i.n.g c.o.c.k blocking bastard, not even having the goddamn common decency to knock first."

Just as he wanted to close the door, Qin Wuyou walked into his room with a stiff expression on his face.

"You... You rascal." The corner of Qin Wuyou's mouth twitched. Then, he let out a long sigh as he walked into the room. He sat in front of the table, poured a cup of tea for himself with the teapot, and gulped it down.

"Instructor Qin, are you personally here to hand me the Goldscale Dragon Transforming Pellet?" Yun Che sat in front of Qin Wuyou and asked this rhetorical question.

However, Qin Wuyou did not nod at his question. Instead, he stared at him and said in a strange tone: "Ever since you arrived here two months ago, you and Xueruo had been spending so much time with each other every day. I had my suspicions but I didn't expect that, y-y-y-y-you..."

"Don't you mean princess Cang Yue." Said Mesa causing Qin Wuyou eyes widen in shock.

"Y-y-y-y-you… How?! When?! Just… What?!" stammered Qin Wuyou at Mesa's sudden remark.

"Three months ago, she told me herself on the day when I left New Moon City. I already had my suspicions about her but I just waited for her to come to me and I confronted her with it." Said Mesa in a calm tone.

"Huh... Did she now?" Muttered Qin Wuyou as he let this piece of news sink in.

"And before you ask me. Yes, she did ask me to represent the Imperial Family during the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament and I said yes." Said Mesa causing Qin Wuyou to get elated hearing this.

"Really?! That is amazing! But before that I want to ask you. Uchiha Mesa, do you know the current condition of the Blue Wind Imperial Family?" Askes Qin Wuyou.

"Yes, Cang Yue told me about it. Her father is very sick and Crown Prince Cang Lin and Third Prince Cang Shuo have engaged each other in a power struggle for the throne. And they have also hooked up with the Xiao Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan respectively." Said Mesa.

And so Qin Wuyou told him about how the Emperor got suddenly ill three years ago. He himself had invited the number one medical genius, Gu Qiuhong, to check up on the Emperor's condition and said that because the Emperor had overworked himself, he brought for many hidden ailments that were dormant in his body and because of this his Life Vein was damaged. After other doctors were called in, they all came to the same conclusion, corroborating Gu Qiuhong's words. It was after this that Crown Prince Cang Ling started to gather power to take the throne once the Emperor had passed away and he is being supported by the second and seventh Prince. And the third Prince Cang Shuo, who had his eyes in the throne much longer, had also started gathering power and he is being supported by the third, fourth, fifth and sixth Prince. In their bid to wrestle power from the Emperor they had even resorted to bringing in the powers of the Burning Heaven Clan and the Xiao Sect.

The Xiao Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan always had their own ambitions to take the throne, but could never do it because the Heavenly Sword Villa and the Imperial Family had a pact that stated that the Sword Villa would come to the rescue in case the Imperial Family is in danger. But with the Crown Prince and the third Prince the power of the Xiao Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan, the Heavenly Sword Villa was powerful to intervene. It has come to the point that the power that the Emperor possessed is all but gone and his throne is no longer his. Because of this, the Emperor was angry at the Crown Prince and the third Prince and true power lies with the Xiao Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan.

As his illness started to take more and more of a toll on his body, his sons all started to side with either the Crown Prince of the third Prince. The only one to support him is his daughter, the princess, she is the only who has stood by her father's side and refused to abandon, no matter what. Even though the Blue Wind Profound Palace is supposed to be a neutral entity, serving only the Emperor. The power that the princes wield has already seeped into the Blue Wind Profound Palace. Half of the 100 Inner Palace disciples are already siding with either the third Prince or the Crown Prince. Even the third place disciple Fang Feilong and second place disciple Feng Bufan.

Listening to everything Qin Wuyou had told him, Mesa could see that he was angry at the princes for abandoning their father when he got sick and even for inviting the Xiao Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan to usurp the power from the Emperor. He also told him how, even though the Blue Wind Imperial Family are the political center of power of the Blue Wind Empire, they had never entered in the top 100 during all 99 times that the Blue Wind Ranking. It is the dream of the current Emperor and princess Cang Yue, that the Imperial Family will be ranked in the top 100. Listening tell him all this, Mesa just smiled and patted Qin Wuyou on the shoulder getting his attention.

"Thank you for telling me all this. And do not worry, I will win the Blue Wind Ranking Tournament. And let me tell you, once I have won the tournament. Everyone, including the Xiao Sect and the Burning Heaven Clan, will be groveling at my feet for favors." Said Mesa confidently, but Qin Wuyou was not convinced.

"Though I do admire your confidence. I am afraid you do not know who you are up against. These participants are the best of the Blue Wind Empire and beating all of them could be nothing more than just a dream I am afraid." Said Qin Wuyou in a sad tone.

"Just you wait, when we're at the tournament you'll see for yourself. And try not to get to excited at that point than, ok?" Said Mesa confidently.

"Very well, I truly hope that you will place in the top 100. This would make me, the princess and the Emperor truly happy." Said Qin Wuyou with a smile before his face suddenly took a very serious look.

"I see that you and princess Cang Yue have settled your feeling for one another and I am truly happy for her that she has someone who can make her happy…" said Qin Wuyou

'Ohh boy, you don't know the half of it.' Thought Mesa to himself trying to keep his smirk of his face and stay serious.

"…but there is someone you should look out for. The Burning Heaven Clan Master, Fen Duanhun, eldest son. The Young Master of the Burning Heaven Clan, Fen Juecheng." Said Qin Wuyou.

"Ohh I know all about him. Cang Yue herself told me everything about him. Everything from how they met and how he fell in love with her all the way to how he is working together with the third Prince to force Cang Yue to marry him. But, I will not allow this! Cang Yue is mine and I will NOT allow that Fen Juecheng prick or some Xiao Sect bitch or even the f.u.c.k.i.n.g Devil himself come in between me and Cang Yue! She is MINE and if Fen Juecheng comes in between us, I will put him through so much hell that Satan himself would spontaneously blush!" said Mesa in anger that it intimidated Qin Wuyou but the thing that scared Qin Wuyou the most was Mesa's left arm suddenly transforming into the Boosted Gear and his true strength level that came out.

"Y-y-y-you… what is that thing?! And Level 2 Sky Profound Realm!! HOW?! You were just at half-step True Profound Realm a second ago!!" screamed Qin Wuyou out frightened by everything just now.

Noticing his loss of control just now was enough to reveal his true strength level and make the Boosted Gear come out. So to prevent any complications, Mesa quickly put Qin Wuyou under a genjutsu and forcefully made him forget what he saw just now. Calming himself down, Mesa let his power level decline to half-step True Profound Realm and put away the Boosted Gear.

'Good, can't have people finding out about Ddraig just yet. He must get a grand entrance into the public eye, befitting for a Heavenly Dragon such as himself.' thought Mesa to himself before he broke the genjutsu he put on Qin Wuyou.

"Ohh I'm sorry, I don't where I was with my mind just a moment ago. But anyways, you should look out for Fen Juecheng. He and the Burning Heaven Clan can make life very difficult for you and your family, so just be careful. And before I leave, I have these two letters for you." Said Qin Wuyou with a sigh as he took out two letters, both addressed to Mesa.

"These are two invitation letters. One of them is from Crown Prince Cang Lin, inviting you to his Crown Prince Palace in ten days' time at noon, to participate in his thirty third birthday banquet. The other invitation letter is from Third Prince Cang Shuo, inviting you to join his Beast Battle Convention that he personally manages. The time…. is also in ten days at noon." Said Qin Wuyou as he handed them over to Mesa.

Taking out the letters and reading through them, Mesa took out a pen and two pieces of paper and started writing on it. Writing down what he wanted, he gave the letters and his pieces of paper to Qin Wuyou and said: "Here, this is my response to them. Make sure that they get it, it is very important."

Reading through the pieces of paper that Mesa gave him, he was shocked to read what it said. Both pieces of paper had the same message for the princes.

F.U.C.K YOU. KISS MY A.S.S, BITCH

"Have you lost your mind?! If they get these letters they will target you relentlessly, no matter where you go!" said Qin Wuyou in distress.

"I know. And I want you to tell them that if they want my loyalty, that they will have to suck my d.i.c.k first before I will even consider the possibility. Cause unlike those traitorous f.u.c.k face princes, my loyalty lies with Cang Yue and not them. Make sure to tell them and tell them to look out for the tournament, because it will be one nobody will ever forget." Said Mesa with a massive smirk.
