Chapter 309

He naturally wasn't afraid.

This level of Samadhi True Fire still couldn't burn him to death.

But, him not being afraid doesn't mean others aren't afraid.

The Samadhi True Fire's blaze surged heavenward, quickly engulfing the entire hall, and then the whole hall ignited.

Many members of the Holy Light Court were touched by the Samadhi True Fire; they immediately exerted their power trying to extinguish it.

But, as their power flowed in, the Samadhi True Fire only grew more vigorous.

Some people were quickly burned to ashes.

And the fire grew ever larger; in an extremely short time, it began to spread to other places.

The Holy Light Sovereign's expression turned grim; he shot up into the sky, mighty power surging, suppressing those Samadhi True Flames.

But in that brief moment, at least dozens of clergy were burned to death.

Three buildings were burned down.

If it weren't for him exerting great power to extinguish the Samadhi True Fire, the entire Holy Light Court would likely have vanished.

"Damn it."

The Holy Light Sovereign's face turned ashen.

He wanted to kill someone.

But the person who had just brought back the news was the first to be burned to ashes.

This left him with anger but nowhere to vent it.

And the Holy Light Sovereign also realized why Qin Yang had sent someone back.

"What a declaration of war."

He simply wanted to use the other side's hand to kill members of his Holy Light Court.

Xiǎng dào zhèlǐ, Holy Light Sovereign's face turned ashen.

"Qin Yang, from now on I will surely kill you."

The Holy Light Sovereign shouted sternly.

In the distant east, Qin Yang felt this killing intent.

He smiled slightly, then slashed a blade into the void.

Blade qi sank into the void, Xiāoshī bújiàn.

Qiao Yue was somewhat puzzled.

At this moment, the blade qi appeared above the Holy Light Court.

Amid the shocked and angry gazes of the Holy Light Court's people, it slashed down toward the Holy Light Sovereign.

"Arrogant."

The Holy Light Sovereign roared in anger.

He raised his hand and unleashed a cross-shaped sword qi, meeting the blade light.

Just then, the blade light suddenly scattered, turning into countless small blade lights that fell directly onto the Holy Light Court.

Instantly, cries of misery rang out, accompanied by the sound of houses collapsing.

With that slash, at least a hundred people in the Holy Light Court lost their lives.

The Holy Light Sovereign trembled all over with rage.

He was enraged by Qin Yang's methods.

At this moment, the Holy Light Sovereign wished he could immediately rush east and tear Qin Yang apart, limb from limb.

A figure descended—it was the God Master.

He wore a gloating smile, fixed his gaze on the Holy Light Sovereign, and said, "You've suffered a loss at his hands; I told you before, he's not simple, not so easy to provoke—you're too arrogant."

The Holy Light Sovereign coldly replied, "It's not like I'm doing this to help you; even if you don't appreciate it, that's one thing, but you're actually gloating over my misfortune."

"I just find it somewhat funny; we're fellow sufferers, both having taken a loss at that brat's hands—what do I have to gloat about?"

The God Master laughed.

But his expression, in the Holy Light Sovereign's view, was extremely punchable.

Holy Light Sovereign Lěng hēng.

"I really don't know what you have to be happy about; without obtaining the Jiuzhou Cauldron, you still can't enter Long Guo."

The God Master gave a light smile.

"Let's see how things go; I've also figured it out now—if my strength isn't enough, entering Long Guo won't end well, but if my strength is sufficient, even the Jiuzhou Cauldron can't stop me from entering Long Guo."

The God Master said.

"What do you mean?"

The Holy Light Sovereign asked.

The God Master chuckled lightly: "Keep looking for the Jiuzhou Cauldron for me; my divine-hunting power in Long Guo has already been greatly reduced by Qin Yang's killings, so I can only rely on you. But if we can't enter Long Guo, there's no need to worry—once my strength recovers, the Jiuzhou Cauldron won't be able to stop me."

"What exactly are you? You're so confident—could you be an ancient immortal of Long Guo? Judging by your words, even among Long Guo's ancient immortals, you're no weakling."

The God Master said nothing.

His eyes gazed upon the heavens, complex to the extreme, filled with hatred and deep reluctance.

"Indeed I have some fame, but I'm not an immortal, because a great figure said I have no destiny to become an immortal."

"No destiny to become an immortal?"

"And yet so powerful."

The Holy Light Sovereign felt somewhat puzzled in his heart.

"Just who is this person?"

The main reason is, he is also quite famous.

「You're not just an ordinary angel, are you? You must be a big shot from Heaven. With your status, you came to the mortal world to become the Holy Light Sovereign of the Holy Light Court—your ambitions are huge. Could it be that you want to replace your Master? 」

The God Master stared at the Holy Light Sovereign.

「You guessed wrong. 」

The Holy Light Sovereign spoke.

Both were guessing each other's identity.

But neither of them got an answer.

They glanced at each other, both able to see the wariness deep in each other's eyes.

Soon, Qiao Yue saw on the news what had happened in the Holy Light Court.

The news reported that the Holy Light Court had encountered a meteorite, causing a fire with over a hundred casualties.

But the Holy Light Sovereign said, this is a warning from the god to humanity; he said that those who do not worship Shénmíng are punished by Shénmíng, so that those who do not worship Shénmíng may feel Shénmíng's majesty.

「Is that meteorite the blade aura you unleashed? 」

Qiao Yue clicked her tongue.

This place is tens of thousands of miles away from the Holy Light Court.

Qin Yang, however, slashed over with a single blade.

Such a method is simply unthinkable.

Even knowing Qin Yang is a cultivator, the fact that he can do this still shocks people.

Qin Yang nodded, gave a faint smile, and said, 'Give them a lesson, otherwise they'll think I'm easy to bully.'

「Awesome, you're not afraid they'll give you the same treatment, are you? 」

Qiao Yue asked.

「If he dares, he can certainly make a move; never mind whether he'd actually do that—wouldn't provoking countless top experts of Long Guo anger them? If a single strike could easily penetrate Long Guo's interior, that would be badass, something even true immortals couldn't achieve. 」

Qin Yang explained.

Those experts couldn't possibly fail to sense it.

Such an attack from outside Long Guo, no matter where it lands, will be intercepted in advance if sensed by any of Long Guo's experts.

The number of strong cultivators in Long Guo is no longer small.

One big shot can't stop it; with several big shots acting together, even the strongest attack is neutralized.

One might think foreign supernatural forces can't invade because they don't want to enter Long Guo.

Or perhaps it's because their strength is insufficient to break in.

「Moreover, Nan Cheng has my master's defenses set up; even if the God Master attacks from outside Nan Cheng, they cannot break through its protection in a short time, let alone a strike from ten thousand miles away. 」

Qin Yang explained.

Understood.

Qiao Yue understood; Qin Yang is fearless.

「By the way, I have some news about someone to tell you. 」

「Who? 」

Qin Yang asked doubtfully.

「Jiang Li. 」

Qiao Yue said.

「What happened to her? 」

Qin Yang asked.

「She has already joined the Dragon Pavilion, becoming a core member; this girl has had a fortunate encounter and is now a late Golden Core expert—she might come to Nan Cheng to see you in the next few days. 」

Qiao Yue said.

「That's a good thing. 」

Qin Yang said with a smile.

「If you say it's good, then it's good. 」

Qiao Yue smiled, with a hint of deeper meaning.
