What, peak Venerable is too weak?
Hearing this, Master Longbrow glared at Ye Qiu, thinking to himself, “Little brat, that’s too much!”
“You want to show off, fine, but why say peak Venerable is too weak?”
“By your logic, doesn’t that make me trash?”
On the other side.
Crow Taoist, hearing Ye Qiu’s words, laughed in rage. “Peak Venerable too weak? What, are you a King Realm master?”
“I’m no King Realm master, but killing a peak Venerable like you is as easy as flipping my hand,” Ye Qiu said, swinging his fist fiercely at Crow Taoist.
Crow Taoist met it with a punch of his own.
In a flash, their fists collided with a deafening roar.
“Boom!”
Crow Taoist was sent flying, blood gushing from his mouth.
In that clash, he felt a terrifying force from Ye Qiu’s fist, like a tidal wave, impossible to resist.
As Crow Taoist was about to hit the ground, he swiftly extended his left hand, slamming it into the earth.
Then, with a backflip, he landed steadily.
At that moment, Ye Qiu’s voice rang out again. “Can’t even take one punch. Tell me, aren’t you a waste?”
“What did you say?” Crow Taoist roared, his eyes blazing with killing intent.
“What, are you deaf too?” Ye Qiu said. “Can’t even take one punch. If you’re not a waste, what are you?”
“You’re courting death!” Crow Taoist bellowed, his thirty-six streams of dragon qi swirling wildly, their terrifying force shaking the very sky.
Yet Ye Qiu was even more domineering, lifting a foot to stomp towards Crow Taoist’s face.
Already furious, Crow Taoist saw Ye Qiu trying to step on his face and was enraged beyond measure.
“Argh!”
Crow Taoist roared, his palm carrying immense force as he struck at Ye Qiu.
Ye Qiu suddenly changed tactics, twisting in mid-air and slamming a fist into Crow Taoist’s palm.
Bang!
On impact, a “crack” sounded as Crow Taoist’s hand bones shattered, his body sent flying again.
He flew a hundred metres, crashing through a dozen trees, leaving a bloody streak on his back.
Finally, with a “thud,” he smashed into the ground.
At that moment, Crow Taoist felt his body falling apart.
“How is this possible? That kid hasn’t even faced a tribulation, not even a cultivator, yet I can’t stop him?”
Before Crow Taoist could finish his shock, he saw a massive cauldron descending from the sky, his face paling.
If it hit, he’d end up like his two disciples, a pile of flesh.
At the critical moment.
“Stop!” Master Longbrow shouted urgently. “Little brat, stop! Don’t smash him to death.”
Though puzzled, Ye Qiu quickly recalled the Qiankun Cauldron, asking, “Old man, what’s that about?”
Master Longbrow said, “That old guy has treasures on him. If you smash him to pulp with the cauldron, it’d be such a waste.”
Ye Qiu understood. Master Longbrow was eyeing Crow Taoist’s treasures.
“Alright then, I’ll beat him to death with my fists.”
With that, Ye Qiu charged at Crow Taoist like lightning.
Crow Taoist scrambled up, unleashing his full power to meet Ye Qiu.
But he was no match.
A few punches from Ye Qiu forced him back, blood spraying from his mouth.
He looked utterly pathetic.
Yet Ye Qiu didn’t stop, continuing to pummel Crow Taoist with his fists.
“Six Meridians Divine Sword!”
Suddenly, Ye Qiu closed the distance and pointed a finger.
Instantly, a sword qi pierced Crow Taoist’s shoulder, the immense force sending him flying.
“Cough, cough…”
Coughing blood, Crow Taoist ignored his injuries, his eyes locked on Ye Qiu, sharp as knives.
“I didn’t expect you to have such combat strength without even facing a tribulation. Truly astonishing.”
“I must say, you’re a genius.”
“If you kneel and apologise now, and join Tianji Sect under my tutelage, I might spare your life. Otherwise…”
“Otherwise, your paralysis! You’re half-dead, and you want me to join you? Is your brain sick?”
Ye Qiu cursed loudly.
Honestly, he couldn’t believe Crow Taoist would say such a thing. No one with a clear mind would speak like that now.
If Ye Qiu were losing, Crow Taoist’s words might make sense, but Crow Taoist was the one battered and bleeding.
Ye Qiu sneered. “Old man, you haven’t grasped the situation. At this point, you want me to kneel, apologise, join Tianji Sect, and be your disciple? Don’t you find that laughable?”
“Laughable? I don’t think so,” Crow Taoist said. “You mean you won’t join me?”
“Kid, I’ve given you a chance to live.”
“If you don’t take it, don’t blame me for being merciless…”
“Enough!” Ye Qiu cut him off. “Stop the nonsense. Come here and die!”
“Fine, since you’re set on death, I’ll grant your wish.” Crow Taoist finished, and a thick black mist erupted from him, his aura turning cold and sinister.
“Whoosh!”
Suddenly, Crow Taoist moved, charging at Ye Qiu like thunder.
His speed was countless times faster than before.
Crow Taoist had played his trump card.
Ye Qiu’s vision blurred, and a black light appeared before his forehead, just three millimetres away.
A chilling killing intent seeped into his skin.
The cold was bone-piercing.
Ye Qiu’s pupils shrank, and he retreated rapidly.
At that moment, the black light that had been at his forehead changed direction, darting towards his throat.
Swift as the wind.
Boom!
Ye Qiu punched the black light.
The next second, Crow Taoist was sent flying, a sharp pain radiating from Ye Qiu’s fist.
Lifting his hand, Ye Qiu saw a deep gash on his fist, blood dripping.
He was slightly surprised.
With his current strength, ordinary weapons could hardly harm him unless they were divine.
“Old man, you were right. This guy has treasures.”
Ye Qiu spoke, then unleashed his full power. Under his relentless onslaught, Crow Taoist was beaten miserably.
Finally, Ye Qiu summoned four Qiankun Cauldrons, shattering Crow Taoist’s thirty-six dragon qi.
“Go join your disciples for cards. Goodbye!” Ye Qiu lifted his foot, aiming for Crow Taoist’s throat.
Master Longbrow suddenly shouted, “Little brat, don’t kill him!”
