“Buzz!”
The stone disc was activated, emitting strands of terrifying white light. Accompanied by a sky-shaking killing intent, it spread outwards.
Soon, those strands of white light intertwined in the air, forming an impenetrable net that enveloped the entire City Lord’s mansion, inside and out.
This was a saint-level killing array.
Once activated, its killing intent was boundless.
At this moment, the guards inside the City Lord’s mansion all felt chills throughout their bodies, their hair standing on end.
“Ye Changsheng, you are a wanted criminal personally named by the Cult Leader. I never imagined you would dare impersonate Junior Brother Yunjie, swagger in here openly, and even poison Tang Ye to death. Today, even if you grow wings, you cannot escape.”
Song Que pointed at Ye Qiu, his face filled with boundless killing intent. He roared, “Saber, come!”
His edgeless heavy saber was a saint weapon that had accompanied him for many years and had long recognised its master.
Generally, for a saint artefact that had recognised its master, even if it was thousands of li away, as long as the owner’s cultivation was strong enough, a single call could summon it back immediately.
However, after Song Que’s fierce shout, the edgeless heavy saber did not appear. Moreover, he discovered that his connection to it had been completely severed.
Remember the website.
“How is this possible?”
“Ye Changsheng is merely at the peak of the Dongtian realm. How could he control my weapon?”
Song Que could scarcely believe it.
Little did he know that the moment he had given the edgeless heavy saber to Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu had stored it in his Qiankun bag and sealed it completely within a Qiankun cauldron.
Suppressed by a divine artefact, let alone Song Que, even a saint-level expert would be helpless.
Ye Qiu had done this precisely to prevent Song Que from summoning the edgeless heavy saber back during a major battle.
Song Que was nicknamed Heavenly Saber, which showed his exceptional saber arts. Without the edgeless heavy saber in hand, Song Que’s combat strength would undoubtedly be greatly diminished.
Ye Qiu had exploited Song Que’s affection for Yunjie to swindle the edgeless heavy saber, all to ensure this Divine Son could not unleash his full power.
“Song Que, oh Song Que. Have you never heard the saying that gifts given are like water spilled? How can they be taken back?” Ye Qiu mocked.
Song Que’s face turned ashen. He said grimly, “Ye Changsheng, do not celebrate too soon.”
“Though I lack my treasured saber, my cultivation is higher than yours. Killing you will be as easy as turning over my hand.”
“Today, I will avenge Junior Brother Yunjie.”
Having spoken, Song Que’s gaze sharpened.
Suddenly, a terrifying saber intent erupted from his body. That fearsome aura shook the surrounding heavens and earth.
At this moment, Song Que’s body was like a saber itself. Vast saber intent soared into the sky, causing even the saint-level killing array to tremble.
Song Que stared at Ye Qiu, his eyes like two divine lamps, utterly intimidating.
Instantly, Ye Qiu felt his breathing become laboured, for the gap in cultivation between him and Song Que was simply too great.
He felt that the current Song Que was like an unsheathed peerless treasured saber, revealing invincible sharpness.
“Thud!”
Song Que stepped towards Ye Qiu. With each step, the entire City Lord’s mansion quaked, as if unable to bear his pressure.
Song Que was like an erupting volcano, his boiling killing intent and vast saber intent intertwining, making one’s scalp tingle.
“Worthy of being the Third Divine Son of the Yin-Yang Cult. So powerful!”
“The Divine Son’s saber intent is too strong. I feel as though my primordial spirit is about to be torn apart.”
“Thank goodness the Divine Son’s enemy is not us, or we would be reduced to bones and ash.”
“…”
All around, the guards of the City Lord’s mansion changed expressions. Their gazes towards Song Que were filled with worship and awe.
Then, they turned to mock Ye Qiu.
“Ye Changsheng truly does not fear death. Knowing the Yin-Yang Cult has a warrant out for him, he still dared to come here. He must have a death wish.”
“This brat killed Yunjie, poisoned Tang Ye, and even swindled a saint weapon from the Divine Son. Truly insidious.”
“Rest assured, once the Divine Son acts, Ye Changsheng is doomed.”
“…”
Song Que was indeed powerful, yet no fear appeared on Ye Qiu’s face. Calmly, he called out, “Dali.”
“Master!” Elder Niu stood behind him respectfully.
“This fellow wants to kill your master. What do you think we should do?” Ye Qiu asked.
“Simple. Smash him to death with one punch!” Elder Niu said, preparing to strike.
Ye Qiu replied, “Always smashing to death. How boring!”
Elder Niu paused, confused, and asked, “Master, how do you wish to handle it?”
“Make him drop a realm. That should not be difficult for you, right?” Ye Qiu said.
“Not difficult.” Elder Niu scratched his head, puzzled, and asked, “Master, I could clearly smash him with one punch. Why only make him drop a realm?”
Elder Longbrow laughed and scolded, “You fool. The little rascal wants to use him for practice.”
“Practice?” Elder Niu curled his lip disdainfully and said, “A mere mid-Tongshen. What is there to practice with?”
Damn it, if I were a saint, would I need him for practice?
Ye Qiu inwardly grumbled, then said, “It is rare to encounter a Divine Son of the Yin-Yang Cult. I want to know just what methods a Divine Son of the Yin-Yang Cult possesses.”
“I understand.” Having spoken, Elder Niu flashed in front of Ye Qiu, pointed at the murderous Song Que approaching, and arrogantly declared, “Brat, whatever methods you have, bring them all out.”
When Elder Niu had first appeared, Song Que had secretly observed him but could not discern his depth.
Now, with Elder Niu blocking in front of Ye Qiu, clearly intending to fight him, Song Que dared not be careless.
“You wish to see my methods? Fine. This Divine Son will grant your wish.”
Song Que waved his hand. A mass of light appeared in his palm, condensing into a treasured saber.
Its appearance was identical to the edgeless heavy saber.
Only, this divine saber was formed from divine power. Though not physical, its edge was boundless.
In an instant, domineering saber intent swept through the surrounding heavens and earth.
“Swish!”
Song Que moved.
Like a fierce dragon, he charged through the air, slashing towards Elder Niu. His saber intent pressed forward relentlessly, carrying a momentum that could destroy heaven and earth.
“One Saber Annihilation!”
Song Que roared. The divine saber in his hand blazed with light. Terrifying saber radiance covered the sky and earth, intent on cleaving Elder Niu into fragments.
Yet, facing Song Que’s mighty strike, Elder Niu stood motionless, as if he had not seen the attack at all. He allowed the saber radiance to strike his body without resistance.
“Boom!”
Endless saber radiance struck Elder Niu, producing a thunderous roar. In the next instant, Song Que’s pupils contracted sharply.
For he discovered that Elder Niu remained standing in place, having taken his strongest blow without any defence, yet was completely unharmed.
“This… how is this possible?”
“How can his physical body be so tough?”
“What kind of monster is this?”
Song Que drew in a sharp breath. Staring at Elder Niu in shock, he asked, “Who exactly are you?”
“The one who will kill you.” Elder Niu threw a punch.
Bang!
In an instant, Elder Niu’s fist force surged vast and mighty, like a blazing sun, smashing into Song Que’s body.
The next second, the fist force exploded.
“Boom!”
Song Que did not even have time to utter a scream. Under the eyes of all present, his body turned into a cloud of blood mist.
His body and dao vanished completely!
