You killed Xu Zhicheng and the others, didn’t you? How foolish of me to think it was your doing, Lord Ding’s clan.” Xu Zhiyuan spoke in a low tone, quietly channeling his blood and qi to slowly recover.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Brother Xu, you overestimate me. I’m not as heartless as you—would I sacrifice so many of my own clan members and former friends just to scheme against you?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“It’s you who are cruel and merciless. If you’d merely remembered old ties and spared our Ji family, how could we have ended up like this!” Ji Yuanzhen said.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“That’s true. But if not you, then why are you here now, Brother Yuanzhen? Do you intend to profit from our four families’ battle like a fisherman? Or perhaps you think I’m too badly wounded and Ding Bangcheng and the others too crippled to fight—so you see a chance to kill us and avenge yourself?” Xu Zhiyuan said, suddenly twisting his face into a cruel grin as he slowly raised his sword, its blade flickering with light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Do you believe that even if I’m wounded, I can still kill one more Eighth-Rank Martial Master?”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Upon hearing this, Ji Yuanzhen instinctively stepped back several paces.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Daoming and Liang Jingtang followed suit, retreating.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hah!” Xu Zhiyuan burst into wild laughter, raising his sword and striding forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Seeing this, Ji Yuanzhen finally felt humiliated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Kill!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ji Yuanzhen roared, his blood and qi surging violently as he drew his blade and charged at Xu Zhiyuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once slender and refined, he now looked like a ferocious tiger descending the mountain, his aura terrifyingly fierce.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“A hundred-legged insect dies but doesn’t go limp, Daoming—isn’t this a bit reckless? Or are you…” Liang Jingtang’s heart leapt in alarm as he whispered to Xia Daoming beside him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“The old man is past his prime; he has little time left to glimpse the Master realm. This battle may offer him insight and aid.” Xia Daoming cut him off, his gaze sharp as a blade fixed on Xu Zhiyuan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Eighth-Rank—and his blood and qi are so abundant!” Xu Zhiyuan’s face changed slightly, then suddenly he tapped his toe against the ground and shot backward toward the Xu family’s base.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhiyuan was already at his last breath; he’d assumed Ji Yuanzhen, old and frail, could barely be pushed back, let alone killed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But he hadn’t expected Ji Yuanzhen’s surge of blood and qi to rival Xu Shixiong’s—no longer daring to fight, he instantly chose to retreat to his stronghold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn it! Cheating bastard!” Xia Daoming froze, then slammed his foot hard into the ground.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The cobblestone street shattered explosively, stones flying everywhere, leaving a deep crater—and several houses along the street collapsed under the shockwave. Amidst the rising dust, Xia Daoming launched forward like a cannonball.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Damn, that’s overkill!” Seeing the colossal commotion Xia Daoming caused—and how instantly he caught up to Xu Zhiyuan—even Yu Chi Xiao and the others, who already knew his monstrous strength, were left gaping in shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhiyuan felt a crushing aura surge behind him—he turned and saw the young man who’d stood behind Ji Yuanzhen now right at his back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“This…” Xu Zhiyuan’s body hairs stood on end. Without thinking, he slashed his sword at Xia Daoming.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade’s light blazed like lightning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Daoming raised his armored forearm and blocked it lightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Clang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Sparks flew.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The arm guard remained unharmed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Worse, Xia Daoming’s body kept surging forward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhiyuan’s heart nearly shattered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was a Martial Master—even now, near death, this desperate slash carried immense force.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>An ordinary Eighth-Rank Martial Master would be stopped or thrown back.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet this man blocked it effortlessly, barely affected at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Run!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhiyuan had only one thought.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the instant he thought it, a piercing killing intent pierced his body.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The tip of a spear, gleaming with dark, icy light, rapidly expanded in his pupils.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Stunning Spear—blazingly fast, its spear-light speckling the air, sealing every escape route, leaving only retreat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But Xu Zhiyuan knew his backward speed couldn’t match this lightning strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Life or death.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Years of martial cultivation plunged Xu Zhiyuan’s mind into perfect, icy clarity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Roar!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A tiger’s roar erupted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His remaining strength exploded like a mountain flood within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even his skin oozed blood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Against the trajectory of the Xuan Long Spear, he slashed his massive sword with blinding speed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade’s light surged, extending over ten feet.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear tip struck first against the dazzling, elongated blade-light.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Boom! Boom! Boom!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The collision of two immense forces emitted low, thunderous explosions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The blade-light shattered into fragments, scattering like brilliant fireworks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear tip pierced through like bamboo split by a blade.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>From the violent impact and friction, the spear tip glowed dark red, as if forged in fire, radiating searing heat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhiyuan kept retreating, his legs scraping the ground, cracking the earth like a plow tearing through farmland.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Clang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear tip broke through the blade-light and finally struck the sword’s tip with a crisp metallic ring.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhiyuan shuddered as if struck by lightning—his sword flew from his grip, blood spurted from his mouth, and he collapsed backward.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A glimmer of cold light flashed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear tip now rested against Xu Zhiyuan’s throat.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The world fell utterly silent.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>On the tavern’s upper floor, everyone was nearly petrified.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Martial Masters had once seemed so lofty, so distant in their hearts.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even knowing he was drained, even strong Ji Yuanzhen had feared him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet now Xia Daoming struck once—and shattered his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The spear tip pressed against his neck; one gentle thrust, and this great Master would vanish forever.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Ding Bangcheng and the others struggled to breathe, their emotions tangled beyond words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They’d believed that after destroying the Xu family, Licheng would be theirs.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now they realized how naive they’d been.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Who are you?” Xu Zhiyuan asked, voice thick with bitterness.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Apprentice of Liang Jingtang from Qianjiao Martial Hall.” Xia Daoming replied.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Apprentice of Liang Jingtang!”\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Zhiyuan, Ding Bangcheng, and the others all turned to look at Liang Jingtang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Liang Jingtang stood with hands behind his back, chest raised proudly, his internal force surging, silver hair and robes fluttering in the wind—majestic and striking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“And also my granddaughter Ji Wenyue’s husband!” Ji Yuanzhen strode forward, great knife in hand, looking down upon Xu Zhiyuan from above.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xia Daoming blinked in surprise.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>When did I marry Ji Wenyue?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“So it was all because of his arrival!” Xu Zhiyuan sighed bitterly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As he spoke, his gaze returned to Xia Daoming.\u003C\u002Fp>",1137,"2026-06-20T05:15:29.288Z",1,"Qwen3-Next 80B","3d247004210eae0a96a4f252982f1bdd32e84a32e91911a0559cce9698710c4a","i-subdue-the-immortals-with-strength-chapter-101","i-subdue-the-immortals-with-strength-chapter-99",484,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fi-subdue-the-immortals-with-strength-cover.jpg"]
