Chapter 316 The terrifying sword light, overwhelming the enemy with force!
“That aura is coming from the south of the city. Could it be…”
The Qinglong City Lord recalled what Zuo Chengshou had said earlier. Wasn’t that the group heading south of the city?
Although he wasn’t sure if the sudden outburst of the Qi family’s fifth son was related to that individual,
the Qinglong City Lord felt an inexplicable unease.
Without a second thought, his aura surged, and his figure vanished into the courtyard, heading south of the city.
Zuo Chengshou, a powerhouse of the initial Xiantian realm, also sensed the Qi family’s fifth son’s radiant aura.
Seeing the City Lord’s startled expression, he immediately realized what was going on. He
also used his acrobatic skills to follow him.
However, his cultivation level was far inferior to the City Lord’s, and he could no longer see him once he left
the City Lord’s mansion. He could only follow the Qi family’s fifth son’s radiant aura and head south.
As he traveled, Zuo Chengshou also sensed the numerous powerful auras within the city, also converging towards the south.
“It looks like a major disturbance is about to occur this time!”
Zuo Chengshou felt a chill in his heart, and his pace could not help but increase again.
However, just as he was halfway there, he suddenly saw a sharp blade flash soar into the sky.
Immediately afterwards, the powerful aura of the Qi family’s fifth son, like ice and snow in the blazing sun, rapidly dissipated and melted.
In a matter of seconds, it was like a candle in the wind, nearly extinguished.
“What?!”
All the innate realm masters who witnessed this scene were shocked.
From his aura, it seemed that the Qi family’s fifth son was on the verge of death.
Yet, only a few breaths had passed since his aura burst, and he was defeated so quickly.
Who could have emanated that terrifying blade flash?
Shocked, the innate realm masters no longer cared about hiding their thoughts.
Unleashing their auras, they rushed at full speed towards the Qi family’s fifth son’s location.
“Damn it!”
The Azure Dragon City Lord, who was also on his way, saw the terrifying blade aura and, recalling the description of the person in the message from the Holy City,
knew that his worst fear had come true.
“What the hell did that idiot, the Qi family’s Fifth Brother, do?”
The Azure Dragon City Lord’s face sank, a chill emanating from him. His speed suddenly increased, and he rushed forward at breakneck speed.
“Fifth Brother!”
The figures emerging from the Qi Mansion were filled with even greater shock and fury. They disregarded the so-called agreement and charged forward with all their might.
The combined aura of numerous Innate Realm masters, a powerful pressure that plunged the entire Azure Dragon City into chaos.
“What’s going on? Why are all these Innate Realm masters unleashing their auras simultaneously?
” “Is a Innate Realm melee brewing in the city? ” “
Hide quickly! A war among Innate Realm masters could easily lead to casualties!”
…
“Fifth Uncle!”
In Hu Zezhi’s courtyard, Qi Wenzheng’s eyes widened.
He stared at his Fifth Uncle, who had always been considered incredibly powerful, falling to the ground with disbelief.
At the same time, an indescribable fear welled up within him.
Just now, he had witnessed with his own eyes how his fifth uncle, a Xiantian realm cultivator, was slashed from the rooftop by that brat with a single blow.
He couldn’t imagine what kind of terrifying existence he had provoked.
“Ahem.”
The fifth son of the Qi family wasn’t dead yet. He struggled to his feet, blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, his left arm missing.
His aura was faint, as if it would be extinguished at any moment.
Most of his meridians and acupoints had been destroyed by the wisps of saber energy.
But he no longer cared about that. He half-knelt on the ground, staring at Lu Qing in horror.
Lu Qing’s saber energy had been too terrifying.
He had no time to react before his arm was severed.
If the saber energy hadn’t deflected slightly at the last moment, he would have been cut in half.
“Who exactly are you?”
The fifth son of the Qi family stared at Lu Qing intently.
He didn’t know if the deflection of the saber energy was intentional on Lu Qing’s part or if he was just lucky.
But he knew that the young man before him was terrifying beyond measure.
A single blade of sword energy severely wounded him, a cultivator at the Minor Success Stage of the Innate Realm.
His cultivation was so profound it was beyond his comprehension.
But equally, he couldn’t understand when such a terrifying young man had appeared in the world.
And why had the Qi family received no news of him?
Lu Qing was about to speak when his eyebrows suddenly raised, and he looked up into the sky.
He withdrew his Innate pressure.
With the ablation of the Innate pressure, Qi Wenzheng and the others finally had a chance to breathe. They tumbled and scrambled to hide in a corner, their faces filled with fear.
The next moment, a powerful figure appeared on the rooftop.
Following closely, numerous powerful auras appeared, rapidly approaching, descending upon the houses surrounding the courtyard.
Several figures even descended directly into the courtyard, blocking the Qi family’s fifth son.
The gathering of so many Innate Realm cultivators instantly froze the atmosphere.
Ordinary warriors like Hu Laosan felt their legs weaken, their hearts filled with fear.
When had his small house attracted so many Xiantian realm masters?
If it weren’t for his daughter supporting him, he would have collapsed to the ground.
“Fifth Brother!”
Several figures descended into the courtyard. One of them, an old man with a face somewhat resembling that of the Qi family’s Fifth Brother, was filled with shock and anger upon seeing his miserable condition.
“Who hurt you?”
The other Xiantian realm masters, now gazing at the situation, were deeply moved.
The Qi family’s Fifth Brother had lost an arm, and judging by his aura, his internal condition was not optimistic.
Everyone turned their gazes across, eager to discover who had so swiftly inflicted such a severe injury on the Qi family’s Fifth Brother, who was at the Xiantian Minor Success stage.
However, before they could identify him, Lu Qing spoke calmly, “It was me.”
Everyone’s eyes suddenly fixed on Lu Qing.
There was shock, doubt, and even disbelief.
There was no other way; Lu Qing was simply too young.
No one could believe that such a young boy could have so severely injured the Qi family’s Fifth Brother.
Only one of them was shocked when he saw Lu Qing and the others, revealing an expression of disbelief.
But at this moment, a sharp voice rang out: “Uncle, second uncle, it’s him, this kid who injured Uncle Wu. He also chopped off my leg. You must not let him go!”
“Wen Zheng, why are you here too?”
The eldest and second sons of the Qi family only then noticed Qi Wen Zheng and a group of servants guarding them in the corner.
Hearing Qi Wen Zheng’s words, everyone’s eyes once again focused on Lu Qing.
It turned out to be this young man who injured the fifth son of the Qi family?
The eldest son of the Qi family was also shocked, but he forced himself to calm down.
He said in a deep voice: “Who are you and why did you do such a cruel thing to my brother? Even if my brother has offended me, don’t you think it’s too harsh?”
“Too harsh. I have already spared his life. Is this considered too harsh?” Lu Qing shook his head, “You should be thankful that he didn’t show any murderous intention to me just now.
Cutting off his arm was just a small warning.
Otherwise, he would be a corpse now.”
“What a big tone!”
The second son of the Qi family was obviously impatient and was about to make a sarcastic remark.
At this moment, the weak voice of the fifth son of the Qi family rang out: “Big brother, second brother, what he said is true.
He did show mercy just now, otherwise I’m afraid I wouldn’t have seen you.”
“Fifth brother, what did you say?” The second son of the Qi family turned around suddenly.
But the fifth son didn’t look at his second brother, instead staring intently at Lu Qing.
After hearing Lu Qing’s words, he finally confirmed that the previous blade wasn’t a miss, but a deliberate move by Lu Qing.
“Thank you for your mercy, sir. I’m deeply sorry for offending you earlier. I apologize.”
Heedless of the pain of his broken arm and the injuries he sustained, he forced a one-handed salute, bowing slightly to Lu Qing.
This stunned everyone.
No one had expected the fifth son of the Qi family to act like this.
Seriously wounded, he actually surrendered to his enemy.
When did the usually domineering Qi family become so easy to talk to?
Even Lu Qing was a little surprised.
His gaze towards the fifth son of the Qi family was filled with approval.
However, while the fifth son of the Qi family had surrendered, another man refused to do so.
Seeing his fifth uncle giving in to the enemy, Qi Wen Zheng immediately shouted, “Fifth uncle, what are you doing?
Uncle Eldest and Uncle Second are all here, what’s there to be afraid of!
This brat chopped off your hands and my feet. This is a provocation to the dignity of our Qi family. We can’t let this go!
I’m going to chop off all his hands and feet and torture him for ten days and ten nights, otherwise I won’t be able to quell the hatred in my heart!”
“Shut up!”
Seeing Qi Wen Zheng still being so reckless, the fifth son of the Qi family was so angry that he almost fainted.
If he hadn’t been so seriously injured that he couldn’t even radiate a single breath, he would have killed the bastard first.
Couldn’t this idiot see that the young man in front of him was definitely not someone the Qi family could afford to provoke?
However, what made the fifth son of the Qi family’s eyes darken even more was that
upon hearing Qi Wen Zheng’s words, his second brother, who had always been a bit clueless, actually nodded in agreement.
“Wen Zheng is right. This brat actually dared to hurt you. He’s clearly against our Qi family.
In Qinglong City, no one can offend our Qi family and remain unscathed!
He’s just a mere beginner in the Xiantian realm. How could he possibly be that powerful? I’ll redeem you right now!”
With this, an aura emanated from him, and the battle axe in his hand also emanated a faint red energy.
“Second brother, wait!”
The fifth son of the Qi family was horrified. However, he was completely powerless at this moment, unable to stop his second brother, who was already a level stronger than him.
He could only watch helplessly as he charged towards the terrifying young man.
“As expected, if the top beam is crooked, the bottom beam will be crooked.”
Lu Qing shook his head, but he didn’t move.
Only a faint flash of light appeared on his body.
Then, the next moment, everyone was horrified to see that
the surrounding heaven and earth’s vital energy was converging at a terrifying speed.
In an instant, a massive blade of energy formed in front of Lu Qing, slashing towards the second son of the Qi family.
“How is this possible?!”
The Qi family’s second son’s eyes flashed with horror. Feeling the terrifying might of the sword energy, he had no time to think, only to thrust his divine axe upwards to block it.
Boom!
The sword energy slashed against the axe, a surge of surging air and a powerful surge of force.
The Qi family’s second son couldn’t even steady himself, and spat out a mouthful of blood.
The terrifying sword energy, formed entirely from the essence of heaven and earth, pushed the axe back at an incredible speed.
“Ah!!”
The Qi family’s second son’s energies boiled, bursting to the limit as he desperately tried to resist.
But it was futile.
The unstoppable force of the sword energy ripped through the wall behind him and crashed into another house, raising a cloud of dust.
Deathly silence!
Absolute silence!
Everyone stared in amazement at the long scratch that stretched from the courtyard to the outer house.
It was the Qi family’s second son’s footsteps, created with all his might.
“Second brother!”
“Second brother!”
After several breaths, two exclamations rang out.
The eldest son of the Qi family flew out and rushed into the half-collapsed house.
However, when he saw the second son, his heart sank.
He saw that his second brother was lying unconscious in the ruins, with countless knife marks on his body, blood and flesh blurred, it was a horrible sight.
He hurriedly stepped forward to touch the second brother’s pulse, and his heart was even more shocked.
Because the meridians and acupoints in the second brother’s body had been completely destroyed.
The five internal organs were almost shattered.
Even if he could be cured, he would probably be a cripple in the future.
After stuffing a pill into the second brother’s mouth, the eldest son of the Qi family suppressed his grief and returned to the courtyard.
“Brother, how is the second brother?”
The fifth son of the Qi family asked hurriedly.
“Your second brother’s meridians are completely destroyed, and his five internal organs are almost crushed. Even if he can be cured in the future, I’m afraid he will only become a cripple.”
The eldest son of the Qi family said in a deep voice.
“How could it be?”
The fifth son of the Qi family shuddered, his eyes glazing over, as if unable to accept this outcome.
The other powerful individuals were equally shocked upon hearing this.
They had never expected the second son of the Qi family to be so seriously injured.
They were also filled with shock and awe at Lu Qing’s strength.
What was this person’s origin? The flash of his sword just now didn’t seem like a technique capable of being wielded by an Innate Realm cultivator. How had he achieved this?
“The Divine Merges with Heaven and Earth! This person has truly reached this realm!”
Only the Azure Dragon City Lord, perched on the rooftop, caught a glimpse of the situation.
Yet, he too was deeply shocked.
In his entire life, he had only seen three people reach such a realm:
the three Saint Lords atop the Holy Mountain.
Lu Qing was the fourth.
Most importantly, he was still so young.
“As expected, he’s the one who could defeat the third Saint Lord. His realm is so profound that even I can’t fathom it.”
The Azure Dragon City Lord was inwardly awed.
He also temporarily gave up the idea of stepping in.
He saw that, while Lu Qing’s attack was powerful, it was measured.
At least he hadn’t killed anyone in his two attempts.
But three times is the limit. Next, it would depend on the attitude of the Qi family.
According to the information from the Holy City, this person’s patience is limited.
If the Qi family still doesn’t understand, they might really anger this person.
By then, I’m afraid it will reach a point where it will be difficult to resolve.
Although he didn’t want to see this scene, he really didn’t want to have any contact with this person until Lu Qing calmed down.
What if this person’s anger still lingered and took it out on him? Wouldn’t that be unfair?
