Chapter 177: Slaughtering Soul Formation Cultivators, Defying Body Integration Experts

Seeing Qin Xiao walking toward him, Sun Lianghan immediately panicked.

The onlookers in the city craned their necks, eagerly waiting to see what Qin Xiao was going to do.

“Insolent brat, you dare!”

Chen Shunyi also saw Qin Xiao steadily approaching his disciple and hurriedly shouted to stop him.

“Then let’s see if I dare.”

Qin Xiao replied, but his footsteps did not stop.

He deliberately walked step by step. Every step he took shook Chen Shunyi’s state of mind and deepened Sun Lianghan’s fear.

“Fellow Daoists, help me block Ye Qiuyue. I am going to save my disciple.”

Chen Shunyi finally couldn’t hold back. He only had two disciples left now; he absolutely could not let Qin Xiao kill another.

“Brother Chen, rest assured, we will definitely block her for you.”

They naturally agreed, as their own juniors were among those lying unconscious on the ground.

“Qin Xiao, stop at once! I am willing to negotiate.”

Seeing his friends agree, Chen Shunyi flew directly toward Qin Xiao, intending to stop him.

“With me here, you won’t get half a step closer.”

But the moment Chen Shunyi flew over, he was blocked by Li Wuyang.

“Fellow Daoist Li, I have no other intentions. I merely want to speak with Qin Xiao.”

Sensing that Li Wuyang’s cultivation base was far higher than his own, Chen Shunyi could only stop and explain.

“Senior, block him. If he makes any unusual move, please strike and kill him.”

Qin Xiao saw Chen Shunyi’s actions. Seeing Li Wuyang step in to block him, Qin Xiao felt reassured. He deliberately said those words to provoke Chen Shunyi.

“Qin Xiao, I concede. Let this matter end here; our grievances will be entirely written off.”

Chen Shunyi was also afraid. Although he didn’t believe Qin Xiao would truly dare order Li Wuyang to kill him—he was, after all, an official of the Heavenly Dynasty—his two disciples were not. To protect them, he had no choice but to yield.

“Too late.”

Seeing that Chen Shunyi didn’t dare to move, Qin Xiao continued toward Sun Lianghan.

“Qin Xiao, my master has already conceded. What more do you want?”

Sun Lianghan was terrified. He never expected that even after his master spoke those words, Qin Xiao still had no intention of sparing them.

“Sometimes being badly hurt and unconscious is a blessing. At least you don’t have to feel this fear.”

Qin Xiao did not heed Sun Lianghan. He had already arrived before him and spoke. Visit nоvelping.com for the full chapter.

“What do you mean? Do you truly intend to kill me?”

Sun Lianghan was truly terrified. He had cultivated bitterly for over three hundred years to reach the mid-stage of Soul Formation. Why had it come to such an end?

“Spare me! We had no quarrel to begin with. If you let me go, I can leave my master, become a Rogue Cultivator, leave Qingzhou, and never come back.”

At the end of life, even a Soul Formation cultivator was just like a mortal, reduced to bitter pleading.

“You’re right, there was no quarrel between us. But leave the roots and the weeds will grow back. I don’t consider myself a bad man, but I’m no good man either. If you’ve finished your last words, you can die.”

With that, Qin Xiao unleashed a punch, directly shattering Sun Lianghan’s head.

Qin Xiao had asked many people about this. He only had physical strength, with no way to kill a Primordial Spirit directly. Looking for a solution, he had learned that a cultivator’s Dantian was in the abdomen, but the Primordial Spirit was generally in the head. Smashing the head could end things quickly.

Of course, the prerequisite was that the opponent did not proactively release their Primordial Spirit to escape beforehand. Otherwise, brute force alone could not kill it.

Qin Xiao had spoken with Sun Lianghan to keep him calm, so he wouldn’t release his Primordial Spirit and flee first. Rebirth was unlikely, but who could guarantee this old bastard wouldn’t get absurdly lucky?

“Qin Xiao, Qin Xiao, enough, enough! Leave me one disciple!”

Seeing Qin Xiao kill his eldest disciple without hesitation shook Chen Shunyi’s state of mind a little.

Two of his disciples had died before, but he hadn’t been there. He had felt grief and rage without his state of mind wavering. Now he watched his disciple die, powerless to help, and felt the first slight sign of instability.

“Enough? No, it is far from enough.”

Without hesitation, Qin Xiao went over to Shi Pengfei and killed him with another punch.

“I’ll kill you! I will kill you!”

Chen Shunyi’s eyes were bloodshot, his Spiritual Qi flowing in reverse. He was already on the verge of madness.

Qin Xiao ignored the nearly crazed Chen Shunyi and walked straight toward the other Soul Formation cultivators.

You all came here today intending to annihilate me, so how could I possibly let you off? If I don’t teach you a lesson, wouldn’t people look down on me? Then anyone could just come and bully me in the future.

“Qin Xiao, stop! We have no intention of making an enemy of you. We will leave right now, please show mercy!”

“Yes, we were merely here to hold the line! We haven’t even attacked, please stop!”

“Stop, we will leave immediately!”

Seeing Qin Xiao using such ruthless methods, the other Body Integration cultivators immediately cried out for mercy.

They had no other choice. The Heaven and Earth Twin Fiends were not opponents they could deal with. Both were at the mid-stage of Body Integration. The five of them combined were not a match for the married couple, so they could only plead for mercy.

Face and dignity could be set aside for now. These juniors were the mainstays of their respective factions. If they were lost here, their sects would truly be ruined.

Qin Xiao ignored their pleas too. This chapter was copied from novelping(.)com without permission.

Arriving before the Soul Formation cultivators, he punched them one by one, smashing them like watermelons without a shred of hesitation.

“The boss is about to go crazy. Among these Soul Formation cultivators, there are even quite a few at the late stage, yet he killed them with a single punch.”

Zhang Zuo watched Qin Xiao punch them one after another, feeling a chill run down his spine. These were all Soul Formation cultivators—practitioners with strength comparable to his own—yet they were being slaughtered as if their lives were worthless.

“Big Brother, we earn plenty of Spirit Stones with the boss, but the risk is enormous too. How about we finish this month and leave?”

Li You’s face also twitched. This was simply too insane, so he sent a voice transmission to Zhang Zuo.

“You have a point, Second Brother. At this pace, we can’t protect the boss anymore. His enemies are now all at Body Integration or above. We really can’t keep up.”

Zhang Zuo agreed with Li You’s suggestion. The two of them were at the mid-stage of Soul Formation; placed anywhere else, that would be considered decent strength. But here with Qin Xiao, they were already too weak to be of any help.

Moreover, both of them had been stuck at the mid-stage of Soul Formation for a long time. It was time they went into Secluded Cultivation for a breakthrough. They had obtained quite a few Spirit Stones from Qin Xiao and could use them to purchase cultivation resources.

“I thought Xiao’er never took anything seriously. I didn’t expect him to be so ruthless, without a moment’s hesitation.”

Ye Qiuyue naturally saw all of Qin Xiao’s actions, but she did not criticize him.

In this world where the weak are prey to the strong, mercy was the greatest flaw; only ruthlessness allowed one to establish a foothold.

“Qin Xiao, how dare you act so presumptuously! Our factions will never let you get away with this!”

“Although we are not factions from Qingzhou, you murdered our disciples and juniors. Even if we have to invade Qingzhou, we will not let you go!”

“You’ve offended five factions at once. Qin Xiao, you’re certain to die!”

Only after the final disciple was killed did those four Body Integration cultivators drop their pretenses, each hurling vicious threats.

“So what? What does it matter if I offend you? You believed that old dog Chen Shunyi and came here. Are you good men? Weren’t you here to kill me? Now that I’ve killed your people instead, you start barking? You don’t need to come for revenge. I’ve already found out which factions you belong to. I’ll go to your sects myself and beat you into submission, one by one. Refuse, and I’ll wipe you out!”

Qin Xiao originally wanted to develop steadily, but others refused to let him grow in peace; various troubles were always seeking him out. Today, if he didn’t have the Spirit Stones to hire two mid-stage Body Integration cultivators, he likely would have truly perished here. He was infuriated, so he had made up his mind.

Evading or yielding would not allow him to live a good life. Setting aside all the random troubles, the resources he possessed would eventually draw covetous eyes anyway. Rather than waiting for that, it was better to simply beat those people until they felt fear. Making those who coveted his wealth weigh the risks involved would save him a lot of trouble in the future.

“Good, good, good! Brat, I will be waiting for you at my Sect.”

“Barking wildly here relying on hired helpers. This old man would like to see what you use to beat me into submission.”

“Exactly. Let’s go and wait for him to seek his revenge.”

The several men knew they had taken a loss today and accepted it, but this grudge would be repaid sooner or later. For today, they would just leave.

“Did I say you could leave?”
