Chapter 42: Should We Pull Off Something Big?

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Amidst a sharp whistling sound, two icy sword auras streaked across the air.

Splat!

The shoulders of the two men were instantly pierced by the sword auras, and they retreated in a sorry state.

At the same time, a shocking cold force spread from their wounds, threatening to freeze their bodies.

The two men looked horrified and hurriedly mobilized all the Spiritual Power in their bodies to desperately suppress it, only then barely managing to quell the cold energy within them.

When they looked up at Wang Yuyao again, their faces were filled with terror.

"Wang Yuyao, you actually turned your hand against fellow Disciples; aren't you afraid of being punished by the sect rules?"

Wang Yuyao remained silent, Spiritual Power flashing at her fingertips as she prepared to tap toward the Perfect Cloud Water Cold Light Sword before her once more.

"Wait."

Just at this moment, a palm suddenly gripped her wrist.

Wang Yuyao looked at Wang Jianqiang.

Wang Jianqiang shook his head at her, "It is not worth losing your own life for these two."

The Hehuan Sect strictly forbids Disciples from committing Slaughter Power against one another.

There were many eyes and ears here; once Wang Yuyao truly killed these two, the matter would certainly be impossible to hide.

According to the sect rules, committing Slaughter Power against a fellow Disciple requires paying with one's life.

"Right, right, Waste... no, Wang Jianqiang is right."

"You are a top ten genius of the Outer Sect, while we are only ranked eighteenth and twentieth; it is not worth losing your life for us."

Hearing Wang Jianqiang's words, the two men seemed to have grasped a straw and spoke eagerly.

Wang Yuyao ignored the two and simply nodded toward Wang Jianqiang, "I will listen to you."

Hearing Wang Yuyao's words, the two thought they had suppressed her using the sect rules, and their eyes lit up.

They exchanged a glance and looked at Wang Yuyao again, "Wang Yuyao, your previous attack on us already violated the sect rules; once we report this to the sect, you will surely be severely punished."

"Now we can give you a chance: help us seize the Prayer Mat on this High Platform, and we can pretend what just happened never occurred."

Seeing that the two were actually foolish enough to threaten her in return, Wang Yuyao's expression turned cold.

Wang Jianqiang patted her shoulder, signaling her to stay calm, then looked at the two with a faint smile on his face, "Do you two mean... that you want us to cooperate with you?"

"Cooperate?" The two sneered, "Did you not hear clearly? We want her to seize the Prayer Mat for us."

"Times change; now it is we who do not want to cooperate, and you are no longer qualified to cooperate with us."

As he spoke, they looked at Wang Yuyao, "Wang Yuyao, if you don't want to be punished by the sect, you had better be obedient."

Upon hearing this, a look of anger appeared on Wang Yuyao's face.

Wang Jianqiang's expression remained unchanged, a faint smile still hanging on his face, "I was already going to let you two off, so why must you two be so aggressive?"

"Heh, Waste Wang, don't make it sound so pleasant." The two sneered, "Kill us? Do you dare?"

Wang Jianqiang sighed, "Since you two are forcing me like this, I can only slaughter you two; otherwise, others might think that I, Wang Jianqiang, am a pushover."

Although Wang Jianqiang's tone was soft, the two felt their bodies tighten upon hearing it and stared fixedly at Wang Yuyao, "Wang Yuyao, you must consider this carefully."

"Is it worth losing your own life for a word from Waste Wang?"

Wang Yuyao did not hesitate in the slightest; Spirit Light flashed at her fingertips again, and she was about to slay the two.

Wang Jianqiang pulled her back again.

Wang Yuyao looked somewhat puzzled.

"These two must indeed be killed, but you cannot be the one to do it."

Wang Jianqiang said softly, and Wang Yuyao became thoughtful.

Next, Wang Jianqiang looked at the two and said with a chuckle, "The Hehuan Sect's rules can restrict its own Disciples, but I wonder if they can restrict people from other factions."

The two were stunned, not quite understanding Wang Jianqiang's meaning.

The smile on Wang Jianqiang's face slowly vanished, and a cold voice followed, "Little Xue'er, why haven't you acted yet?"

Whoosh!

Whoosh!

No sooner had his voice fallen than two inconspicuous streaks of Spiritual Power suddenly shot over.

The next moment, the two had not yet reacted.

The two streaks of Spiritual Power had already pierced through the centers of their brows.

The four people from the Wan Jian Sect and the Zhengyang Sect, who had been watching this side, saw the two Hehuan Sect members die and all revealed looks of wariness, preparing to retreat.

"The four of you, since you have already seen it, then stay behind as well."

Wang Jianqiang glanced at the four of them indifferently.

The next moment, four condensed streaks of Spiritual Power tore through the air and pierced through the skulls of the four.

The four men's expressions instantly froze as they turned into four corpses and fell to the ground.

Seeing that Ye Qingxue had slaughtered six people like killing chickens or dogs without even showing her face, Wang Jianqiang could not help but sigh at the formidable power of a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator.

Although there is only one step between Qi Refining Consummation and the Foundation Establishment Stage, the gap between them is like clouds and mud.

Before a Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivator, a Qi Refining Consummation Cultivator is as fragile as paper, and even a Third Turn Realm Cultivator is no exception.

He looked at Wang Yuyao, "Yu Yao, go and retrieve the Prayer Mat."

Wang Yuyao nodded and flew toward the upper area.

Not long after, the Prayer Mat was in hand.

Wang Jianqiang's gaze fell upon another High Platform that possessed a Prayer Mat.

Keep seizing them!

Four people are currently locked in a fierce battle beside this High Platform.

Among them, two are from Xuanqing Palace, one is from Wan Jian Sect, and one is from Hehuan Sect.

"Waste Wang!"

"And Ye Qingxue too!"

Upon seeing the two, the person from Hehuan Sect's expression flickered.

The person from Wan Jian Sect's expression flickered, but they did not speak.

The two from Xuanqing Palace, however, spoke aggressively, "Get lost, this place belongs to us now!"

They ignored Wang Jianqiang entirely.

So aged, filled with the aura of decay, he looked like a piece of trash whose potential was exhausted and whose end was near.

When they looked at Wang Yuyao, however, they revealed a hint of wariness.

As for Ye Qingxue, as a Foundation Establishment Cultivator, if she took the initiative to conceal herself, these people would be completely unable to detect her.

Wang Jianqiang's gaze swept over the four people one by one, finally landing back on the two from Xuanqing Palace, "I return the same words to you."

"Get lost, Grandpa wants the Prayer Mat here."

Upon hearing this, a flash of killing intent appeared on the two's faces.

This battlefield was originally dominated by the two of them; if there were no accidents, the Prayer Mat on this stone platform would certainly belong to them.

Wang Jianqiang's arrival counted as adding a variable for them.

They were already extremely displeased, and Wang Jianqiang's arrogant attitude only added to it.

The killing intent in the two's hearts could finally no longer be suppressed.

"You're courting death!"

They let out a cold snort and steered their Flying Swords to kill Wang Jianqiang and Wang Yuyao.

Wang Jianqiang's expression was calm as he looked at Wang Yuyao.

Wang Yuyao was just preparing to make a move.

Swish, swish~

Two streaks of Spiritual Power suddenly tore through the air.

The heads of those two from Xuanqing Palace were instantly pierced through, and their life force dissipated.

Wang Jianqiang was stunned and couldn't help but look behind him, "Does your Xuanqing Palace allow infighting among sect members?"

The next moment, Ye Qingxue's voice came into his mind.

"It is not allowed."

"Then how dare you kill them?"

"I have already scouted the area; there are no other Foundation Establishment Cultivators in this Square, so no one can discover that I killed them."

Hearing Ye Qingxue's words, Wang Jianqiang's eyes lit up.

No other Foundation Establishment Stage cultivators?

That is to say, they are invincible here!

Thinking of this, his gaze swept over the dozens of figures in the Square.

"Do you want to do something big?"

"Something big?" Ye Qingxue was taken aback.

"Kill all these people."

Ye Qingxue:...
