The Supreme Wild Young Master-Chapter 623: The Might of the Heavenly Sword_1
Chapter 623: Chapter 623: The Might of the Heavenly Sword_1
"Kill us?"
Upon hearing this, Elder Yu and Elder Qi’s mouths twitch in a rhythmic manner.
They didn’t deny that Zhang Xian is a freak. Despite being in his early twenties, he possesses strength that even grandmasters have to be wary of. However, this alone was not enough to justify Zhang Xian’s arrogance.
Both of them were also grandmaster-level fighters. Moreover, they had been grandmasters for nearly twenty years, a longevity far exceeding Zhang Xian’s recent breakthrough.
Perhaps Zhang Xian had some extraordinary methods up his sleeve, but they were no pushovers themselves.
Would they have come without some certainty of their odds?
"That’s right."
Zhang Xian looked at Elder Qi and Elder Yu and said, "I will kill you, and not one of you will escape."
"Ha ha... "
Elder Qi laughed loudly and said, "Boy, you’re far more arrogant than I thought! Do you know how many people would die laughing if they heard what you just said?"
Elder Yu too was taken aback by Zhang Xian’s audacity, and it took him a while to recover.
As grandmaster-level fighters, they might not be able to kill Zhang Xian, but escaping should not pose a problem. This was the main reason they dared to come. If they couldn’t beat him, at least they could certainly run, right?
Now this kid wanted to kill both of them?
"It seems you two are beyond help. Since that’s the case, I guess I’ll have to see you off."
Zhang Xian gave a cold laugh. The spiritual energy within his body began to rotate rapidly, transforming into the more advanced Spiritual Origin, as he shouted: "Blood Soul, let’s start. Kill these two damned bastards."
"Roar..."
Blood Soul stomped his right foot on the ground. With a thud, he launched himself like a cannonball, hurtling towards Elder Yu.
"An overconfident fool."
Elder Yu felt slighted having previously been bested by Blood Soul.
At this moment, his strength had mostly recovered, and the injuries he had suffered had also improved significantly. It was the perfect time for revenge.
He formed one hand into a fist and the other into a palm, charging towards Blood Soul. An intense palm wind formed as his palm transformed into a blade, fiercely chopping towards Blood Soul’s throat.
"Roar..."
Blood Soul gave a furious roar and swung his hand out to block the incoming palm. Like a humanoid tank, he plowed into Elder Yu.
"Whoa, you’re a tough one..."
Feeling Blood Soul’s powerful impact, Elder Yu grunted, once again unleashing his moves, transforming his palm into a fist, attacking continuously towards Blood Soul’s ’vital points’.
"Kid, get ready to die!" Seeing Elder Yu had begun to fight, Elder Qi lunged towards Zhang Xian.
As if harboring a resolute determination to kill, he unleashed a deadly move right off the bat. His Innate True Qi surged within him like a storm, and with each swing of his fist, his strength climbed higher and higher.
Zhang Xian stood still without moving.
However, though he didn’t move, the spiritual energy within his body did not remain idle. It was rapidly transforming into the more advanced Spiritual Origin power.
"Boy, try taking a hit from me." Elder Qi sneered.
Zhang Xian cracked a grin but made no move. Just as Elder Qi was about to reach him, a fierce aura suddenly burst from Zhang Xian’s body, as if it would tear the space apart.
In front of him, a golden light appeared, and three small sword shadows were spinning around in the golden light.
"What is this?" Elder Qi was startled and instinctively tried to retreat.
If it were a few small swords, he might not have been afraid; Zhang Xian indeed had many strange methods. However, the sword shadows before him were different; they contained an extremely terrifying power within them.
Yes, very terrifying. He didn’t doubt for a second that if one of those swords struck him, it could split him in half.
"Old man, this is a sword technique I learned from the formation. Today, I’ll use you and that old fool Yu to consecrate my sword."
After a cold smile, Zhang Xian waved his hand, and the few small swords in front of his chest immediately left a series of afterimages, as if there were countless small swords slashing towards Elder Qi at incredible speed.
"No..."
In panic, Elder Qi hurriedly rotated his Innate True Qi, which congealed onto his body surface.
"Plop..."
The few sword shadows cut through the afterimage and pierced Elder Qi at a blazingly fast speed, breaking through Elder Qi’s Innate True Qi as if cutting rotted wood. His entire right arm was neatly severed. In a flash, Elder Qi’s arm was flung up high and fresh blood gushed out from the wound.
"Ah..."
Elder Qi’s eyes bulged out, he screamed hysterically, "My hand, my arm..."
"Not only are you without an arm, your life is also forfeit."
Zhang Xian took a step forward, his right hand’s index and middle fingers together. Amidst the golden light, his fingers slid across Elder Qi’s throat.
"Uh..."
Elder Qi fell to the ground, his eyes filled with bloodshot disbelief, as his hands tightly covered his throat.
In the very moment of his fall, a trace of red surfaced at his fingertips. Zhang Xian’s speed was too fast, inflicting a fatal injury.
"Elder Qi..."
Elder Yu turned white as a sheet when he saw Elder Qi die in such a manner, breaking out in cold sweat.
He was very clear of Elder Qi’s strength, which was on par with his if not stronger. And yet, the same Elder Qi who was stronger than him was instantly killed by Zhang Xian in just a few moves. What did this imply?
When had Zhang Xian’s strength become so terrifying?
"Roar..." Blood Soul suddenly punched, hitting Elder Yu square in the chest.
Yu Zhi was shocked by Elder Qi’s death, and was caught off guard, causing him to continuously step back.
"Regretting now?"
Zhang Xian said, "I told you, if I can kill you, then I can kill you. If you chose to leave, none of this would have happened, but you insisted on courting death."
"Zhang Xian..."
Stepping back a few paces, Yu Zhi clutched his chest and said, "I’m leaving, right now. I assure you I won’t bother you again."
"Too late. I’m not a great philanthropist, you must die today." Zhang Xian responded coldly.
Now that his trump card was exposed, he couldn’t let Yu Zhi return. The East China Sect and the Broken Sword Sect have just revealed one grandmaster. Who knows how many more they have? If Yu Zhi returns, he would definitely inform his sect about this incident, and Elder Qi’s death would be known by the East China Sect. Zhang Xian wouldn’t be so foolish. Holding onto his trump card could sometimes turn the tables.
"You... you want to annihilate all of us?" Yu Zhi stared at Zhang Xian furiously.
Zhang Xian chuckled, "Old man, isn’t it you all who wanted to annihilate me? To be fair, I indeed got something in the Formation. But I didn’t make a move on you. If I did, you all would have died. After getting out, you didn’t thank me and instead want to kill me. That’s not how you treat others."
"You..." Yu Zhi’s face was ashen.
After his eyes darted around a few times, he suddenly turned around and bolted in a certain direction.
"Whoosh..."
Zhang Xian moved his right hand, and a streak of golden light rapidly shot out.
"Ah..." a scream rang out.
Yu Zhi had just taken two steps when his right leg was cut off by the golden light as if it was tofu.
"You can’t escape." Zhang Xian was very confident.
If it was Spiritual Energy Attack, Yu Zhi could definitely avoid it. But the ’Heavenly Sword’ isn’t any ordinary move. At a close distance, even if Yu Zhi wasn’t taken by surprise, he would find it hard to evade.
Now, he could claim to be invincible under the sky of the Legendary Realm. Any grandmaster that encounters his ’Heavenly Sword’ would surely die.
"Zhang Xian..."
Yu Zhi was terrified. "Don’t... don’t kill me. I beg of you, don’t kill me."
"Ha ha..."
Zhang Xian laughed heartily: "Elder Yu, you’re a respected grandmaster, yet you lack backbone. What’s there to fear about death? Isn’t it just closing your eyes and losing consciousness?"
Yu Zhi shook his head, "I... I don’t want to die."
"There’s no room for you to decide." Zhang Xian waved and ended Yu Zhi’s life.
Subsequently, he conjured a flame and burnt the bodies of Elder Qi and Yu Zhi to ashes. Although he couldn’t hide this matter, concealing it for another day was still a win.
Time was what he lacked most now.
"Roar..."
Seeing Yu Zhi and Elder Qi’s deaths, Blood Soul inevitably turned to look at Zhang Xian. If his eyes had emotions, they would be filled with surprise.
The sword techniques that Zhang Xian had learned in the cave were so powerful that even grandmasters were killed instantly. Although Elder Qi and Yu Zhi had been in panic during the course, unsettled and off balance, the power of the ’Heavenly Sword’ was obvious. Even if Elder Qi and Yu Zhi had fought their hardest, they would likely have fallen under the ’Heavenly Sword’.
"Let’s go."
After finishing off Elder Qi and Yu Zhi, Zhang Xian did not linger and turned to walk in a certain direction.
...
In a guesthouse in the city of Tongzhi, inside a certain room.
Mo Shaoyun was sitting on the bed, holding Xiao Huo, her brows furrowed in worry.
Jun Wuhen, Qiu Yun, and the others surrounded her, standing or leaning against the wall, also waiting for Zhang Xian’s return.
They had benefited greatly from this occurrence, eliminating many skilled individuals from the God’s Spokes. According to Mo Shaoyun, Zhang Xian had obtained quite a few things from the Formation - a not insubstantial gain.
However, Zhang Xian had not returned till now, which was their only worry. If something had happened to Zhang Xian, their group might as well disband.
Their gathering was due to Zhang Xian.
Despite being young, he was powerful and had a unifying pull, and they followed him willingly.
"Dear Miss Mo, rest assured, Zhang Xian will be fine." Mickey smiled, "There aren’t many people whom I, Mickey, admire, but Zhang Xian is definitely one of them."
Jun Wuhen also stepped forward, smiling, "Yes! We don’t need to worry. The one who can kill that Zhang Xian fellow probably hasn’t even been born yet!"
"Hehe... "
Mo Shaoyun smiled, "Thank you all."
"Should we return now or continue waiting here? According to Zhang Xian, we should head straight back to Lingxiao Island." Qiu Yun looked at Mo Shaoyun, suggesting, "In my opinion, we should rush back right now. We agreed beforehand to do so. If we wait here, we might miss Zhang Xian and it’s not safe either."
"That won’t happen."
Mo Shaoyun shook her head, "Zhang Xian will definitely come."
"How do you know?" Qiu Yun asked.
Everyone else also turned to look at Mo Shaoyun, puzzled. Zhang Xian had promised earlier to head straight back to Lingxiao Island - why was Mo Shaoyun so confident?
Mo Shaoyun merely smiled, not answering.
She knew, Zhang Xian would definitely come over. She knew him well. And he knew her well, too. So, Zhang Xian would come here.
"Knock, knock, knock..." Suddenly, there was a knock on the door.
Qiu Yun, Jun Wuhen and the rest all whirled around, faces filled with caution as they watched the door. They were still within the vicinity of Tongzhi, where many incidents had happened; it was indeed quite unsafe.
