Ye Qiu shattered Uncle Tian’s skull with one lash of the whip, followed by a flick of his finger sending a sword qi that pierced through Uncle Tian’s nascent soul.
Immediately, a peak Cave Heaven powerhouse fell just like that.
Lin Dabird was stunned, his eyes wide with shock, and he exclaimed, “Brother Changsheng is so fierce.”
Changmei Zhenren looked smug, “He’s my brother.”
On the other side.
Xu Yourong’s expression changed.
“Uncle Tian is dead?”
She hadn’t expected that Ye Qiu, who was only at peak Golden Core, could cross a major realm and instantly kill Uncle Tian.
“Could this guy be hiding his cultivation?”
After Uncle Tian died, the array automatically dissipated. The qilin cub, freed from its restraints, roared loudly and charged into the forest, trying to escape.
Xu Yourong immediately chased after it, while commanding the dozen or so maids, “Stop those few for me.”
In an instant, the dozen maids, holding long swords, swarmed towards Ye Qiu.
Without a word, Ye Qiu swung the God-Beating Whip.
“Puff!”
“Puff!”
The two maids closest to Ye Qiu were struck by the God-Beating Whip, their bodies along with their golden cores turning into a mist of blood.
Ye Qiu’s ferocity intimidated the others.
“Form the array!”
One maid shouted loudly. In a moment, the dozen maids surrounded Ye Qiu completely, forming an array.
“Petty tricks.” Ye Qiu sneered, sweeping the God-Beating Whip outwards with overwhelming force.
Snap!
Three maids were swept by the God-Beating Whip, their lower bodies exploding. Ye Qiu followed up with a punch.
“Bang!”
The three injured maids were blown apart by his punch, not even having time to scream.
By now, five maids had died.
Ye Qiu prepared to continue, but suddenly one maid’s head burst open. Changmei Zhenren, holding a brick in his hand, said, “Little brat, hurry and chase Xu Yourong. Don’t let her escape. Leave these wilted flowers to this poor Taoist.”
Ye Qiu didn’t waste words and quickly rushed into the forest.
Not long after, he saw Xu Yourong and the qilin cub.
At this point, the qilin cub had been thoroughly beaten down by Xu Yourong, covered in wounds and blood, lying on the ground barely breathing. However, its eyes were full of defiance, clearly not yet submitting.
“I told you, if you don’t submit, you’ll suffer physical pain. This is your own doing.”
“Once back at the sect, I’ll have ways to make you submit.”
After Xu Yourong finished speaking, she was about to knock the qilin cub unconscious when suddenly a sword qi came slicing through the air.
Whoosh!
The sword howl shook the heavens.
Xu Yourong raised her hand and slapped the sword qi apart with a palm, turned her head to look at Ye Qiu, and said coldly, “Boy, daring to interfere in our Yin Yang Sect’s affairs, are you seeking death?”
Ye Qiu responded coldly, “I don’t want to die. I’m here to send you to your death.”
Xu Yourong’s face was extremely grim, her eyes like eternal ice, staring at Ye Qiu as she said coldly, “Ignorant fool, daring to be arrogant before this saintess. Who gave you the courage?”
As the saintess of the Yin Yang Sect, wherever she went, she was worshipped by others. She never expected someone would dare challenge her, and even kill her servants right in front of her. Truly seeking death.
Moreover, the one challenging her was only at peak Golden Core cultivation!
“Since you’re so eager to die, this saintess doesn’t mind sending you on your way.”
Xu Yourong’s long skirt fluttered, releasing a chilling killing intent from her body. Immediately, the surrounding temperature plummeted, as if in an icy wasteland, cold to the bone.
Although Ye Qiu had killed Uncle Tian, Xu Yourong didn’t take him seriously.
After all, to become the saintess of a top sect in the Eastern Wasteland, she was no ordinary person.
Of course, if she knew that Lin Tian, An Ruochen, Tuoba Ye, and others had died at Ye Qiu’s hands, she wouldn’t think this way.
Unfortunately, she didn’t know what happened inside the saint’s tomb.
“You think you can kill me with just you?”
Ye Qiu sneered, “Come at me, let me see just how powerful you, the saintess of the Yin Yang Sect, really are.”
Xu Yourong stepped into the air, looking down at Ye Qiu from above, and said, “Daring to oppose me, go die!”
As her words fell, immense battle intent appeared on her body. Her palm like a dark cloud, slapping down from the air, aiming to crush Ye Qiu’s head.
Xu Yourong was very confident in her strength. Not to mention Ye Qiu was only in the Golden Core realm, even in the same realm, she didn’t think Ye Qiu could block her.
Ye Qiu saw Xu Yourong’s palm slapping down, his face showing no change, and he swung the God-Beating Whip towards it.
“Snap!”
The God-Beating Whip collided with Xu Yourong’s palm. Immediately, Xu Yourong’s palm exploded, blood splattering out.
Stagger stagger stagger.
Xu Yourong retreated seven or eight steps in the air before steadying herself, looking at the God-Beating Whip in shock.
She had clearly felt that when Ye Qiu swung the God-Beating Whip, her whole body was filled with a restraining sensation.
“I know why Uncle Tian died at his hands. That wooden whip of his is strange, able to immobilise opponents.”
Xu Yourong quickly retreated a distance, then stretched out her hand and took out a black divine bow.
At the same time, she took out a crimson blood arrow.
She wanted to shoot Ye Qiu from afar.
Xu Yourong drew the bow and nocked the arrow. With a “whoosh”, the crimson blood arrow shot out, like a bolt of lightning, instantly reaching Ye Qiu’s forehead.
In that instant, Ye Qiu was enveloped in a shadow of death. He felt endless killing intent from the crimson blood arrow.
However, he was not afraid.
Ye Qiu immediately used One Step Ten Miles, dodging the crimson blood arrow.
“Bang!”
The crimson blood arrow passed by Ye Qiu’s body, shooting through and breaking hundreds of towering ancient trees in one go, its power astonishing.
Seeing Ye Qiu dodge, Xu Yourong was somewhat surprised and took out another crimson blood arrow.
Just as she was drawing the bow and nocking the arrow, Ye Qiu’s figure had disappeared from the spot, appearing out of thin air at her side.
“Snap!”
Ye Qiu lashed out with the whip.
Suddenly, Xu Yourong felt her whole body stiffen, as if under a body-fixing spell, unable to move.
Xu Yourong remained calm in danger, softly chanting an incantation. Following that, a battle armour appeared on her body’s surface.
As the battle armour appeared, an immense aura like monstrous waves made Ye Qiu feel a chilling sensation.
“This battle armour is a saint artefact!”
Ye Qiu was startled, but the God-Beating Whip continued to fall.
“Dang!”
The God-Beating Whip struck the battle armour, and Xu Yourong was unharmed.
Xu Yourong spoke, “I have saint armour protecting my body. What can you do to me?”
“Hmph, you think with saint armour protecting you, I can’t kill you?” Ye Qiu immediately summoned the Qiankun Cauldron.
Suddenly, dense emperor’s pressure covered the sky.
The Qiankun Cauldron was activated, booming as it enlarged. The cauldron’s body bloomed with rays of golden light, revealing mountains and rivers, insects, fish, birds, and beasts. Various runes flowed, making the Qiankun Cauldron look incredibly mysterious.
Upon seeing the Qiankun Cauldron, the barely breathing qilin cub’s eyes sparkled with glints of light.
