Chapter 491: You Are Not Worthy
Zhang Nuo looked at the man who had stepped forward, and with a sweep of his Divine Sense, discovered that his cultivation was only at the Golden Core Initial Stage! Thus, he did not even look at him directly! He asked Zhuge Qing, who was beside Ma Huaidong:
"Do you really want to marry him?"
Being treated with such cold indifference, the white-robed man was so angry his face turned livid. As Ma Huaidong's eldest disciple, who wouldn't have to call him "Senior Brother" when they saw him? If he didn't step up on an occasion like today, he feared his master would blame him later!
Seeing that Zhang Nuo ignored him entirely, the fellow let out a wild roar and flew toward Zhang Nuo!
Han Liang and Gu Yu stood to the side, the two of them quickly exchanging a glance, both guessing in their hearts that this kid was about to be in trouble!
Just as Ma Huaidong's eldest disciple charged out, a Golden Light flashed within Zhang Nuo's sleeve, and immediately, a cultivator wearing a golden robe flew out! This person had delicate features, and within his eyes flickered a metallic luster; it was none other than Xuan Jin!
To deal with such trash, there was no need for Zhang Nuo to act personally! At this moment, Xuan Jin's cultivation was stabilized at the Seventh Rank level, and he looked up at the white-robed man charging over!
Golden light erupted from between his five fingers, and with a strange movement, he vanished from the ground! The next moment, right in front of Ma Huaidong's eldest disciple, Golden Light rose from the flat ground, and Xuan Jin suddenly appeared!
This gave the white-robed man a great shock, and before he could make any reaction, he saw one of Xuan Jin's hands, covered in Golden Light, quickly press onto the back of his head! At the same time, Xuan Jin leaned his body back, exerted force with his palm, and with a 'Bang!', pressed the white-robed man's head into the ground!
A bloody scent wafted over! Ma Huaidong's eldest disciple didn't even have time to let out a scream before his head was pressed into the ground by Xuan Jin and shattered into several pieces!
"Wanting to make a move on Master! You are not worthy!"
After slaying the man, Xuan Jin stood back behind Zhang Nuo. In the great hall, after a brief silence, a commotion suddenly erupted!
To kill someone's eldest disciple right in front of Ma Huaidong—was this not a blatant provocation? It seemed this wedding today would certainly not be ordinary!
Two streaks of killing intent shot out from Ma Huaidong's eyes, which were radiating a thievish light! However, he was not foolish enough to strike immediately! Seeing the fellow who had just attacked, it should be a Spirit Beast in the Transformation Stage! Since a single Spirit Beast had already reached the Seventh Rank, Zhang Nuo's true cultivation made him have to think deeply!
"Do you really want to marry him?"
The same words, the same tone, spoken from Zhang Nuo's mouth, still without regard for the people around him; he just looked at Zhuge Qing quietly like this, as if all the past affairs had never happened!
Two lines of crystalline tears finally flowed down Zhuge Qing's beautiful eyes! She had never imagined that Zhang Nuo would still care about her feelings now! When Zhuge An returned from the Xianhuan Continent, he had told her everything, and as for Zhang Nuo, Zhuge Qing had completely given up hope!
She never expected that today, just as she was about to marry someone she didn't like, he would appear, and even ask for her opinion in front of so many people!
"I..."
Zhuge Qing's red lips parted slightly, and just as she uttered a single word in a near-choked voice, Ma Huaidong, standing beside her, let out a furious roar! This sound completely drowned out Zhuge Qing's voice!
In front of everyone, Zhang Nuo had not given him the slightest bit of face, treating him like air, which made Ma Huaidong want to find a crack in the ground to crawl into! A real man lives between heaven and earth for this very breath of pride!
"Zhang Nuo! You go too far!"
Interrupted by Ma Huaidong, Zhang Nuo frowned slightly! Immediately, his face became incomparably cold, his eyes staring fixedly at Ma Huaidong, and after taking a deep breath, he said slowly:
"I am not asking you now! You don't need to speak! If you are truly in such a hurry, I can send you to meet your disciple Zuo Mutang ahead of time!"
Although these words were not loud, the killing intent contained within them made everyone who heard them shiver to the bone! Zuo Mutang was the first disciple Ma Huaidong had taken in, but unexpectedly, he had been slain by Zhang Nuo; the reasons for this were clear to everyone present!
On such an occasion, Zhang Nuo had brought this matter up again, showing no regard for Ma Huaidong at all! The great hall fell into silence once more! Everyone held their breath, looking at the livid-faced Sect Master of the Yanyue Sect!
"Zhang Nuo!"
Ma Huaidong was so angry he was beside himself! After squeezing these two words through his teeth, his figure flashed violently, and at the same time, he flipped one hand to summon a half-foot-long Flying Sword, slashing it toward Zhang Nuo!
Zhang Nuo did not even move; Xuan Jin, standing beside him, struck once again. Both hands were covered in Golden Light, and both arms moved in unison like two giant windmills, smashing repeatedly onto Ma Huaidong's Flying Sword! A loud 'Boom' echoed in their ears as the Flying Sword was smashed into two pieces and fell directly to the ground! Xuan Jin picked up the broken sword from the ground and tossed it into his mouth.
After a few chews, he swallowed it into his stomach! Ma Huaidong stared with wide eyes, not daring to take a step forward for a long time, while Zhang Nuo looked at him coldly, a look of disdain appearing on his face!
If he couldn't even beat Xuan Jin, what right did he have to make a move on him?
"Do you really want to marry him?"
This sentence sounded for the third time from Zhang Nuo's mouth! The great hall became even more silent. This time, Zhang Nuo clearly did not want to give Ma Huaidong any face at all, even if the other party was a Nascent Soul Stage cultivator, even if he was a Sect Master! In Zhang Nuo's eyes, all of this was just air, not even worth as much as a fart!
At least when a fart is released, there is still a sound!
"I do not want to!"
Zhuge Qing finally spoke the words in her heart! At this moment, the faces of everyone in the hall turned deathly pale; the situation was already very clear! Ma Huaidong's face had been completely treated like the sole of a shoe! No matter how much patience he had, he would likely explode this time!
'Boom!'
Just as everyone was looking at Ma Huaidong in astonishment, he did something that stunned everyone! He reached out a palm from his large red robe sleeve and struck it heavily onto Zhuge Qing's chest!
"A cheap woman abandoned by others! I, your father, am giving you enough face by marrying you! Yet you don't know what's good for you!"
Zhuge Qing had no defense against this blow, and her delicate body flew backward! Fortunately, Xuan Jin was quick-witted and fast-eyed; he turned into a streak of Golden Light and caught Zhuge Qing as she was falling!
With a face full of fury, Xuan Jin was just about to strike when Zhang Nuo's voice suddenly rang out! "Take good care of her! Leave Ma Huaidong to me!"
Seeing Zhuge Qing injured, he showed no panic, but instead became even more composed! His gaze shifted leisurely to look at Ma Huaidong!
Swept by Zhang Nuo's icy gaze, Ma Huaidong shuddered all over, as if his body had instantly fallen into a pit of ten-thousand-year-old ice! At the same time, the Spiritual Pressure on Zhang Nuo's body was released completely without any concealment!
The next moment, the cultivators in the hall gasped in unison! Spirit Severing Stage! This was a genuine Spirit Severing Stage cultivator!
Han Liang and Gu Yu were equally shocked; they were shocked only by Zhang Nuo's growth speed—people who were once on the same starting line had now been left so far behind by Zhang Nuo! Could it be that the Xianhuan Continent was truly that magical?
A massive wave of Spiritual Pressure surged over, and Ma Huaidong's heart went completely cold! He had not expected that Zhang Nuo would actually be a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator! That was a level of cultivation worshipped in the Human Realm! No one could contend with the might of a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator!
"Speak! Decide on a way to die for yourself! Do you want to go with some dignity, or do you want to die without pain!"
Zhang Nuo's words were like a death sentence for Ma Huaidong, only the method of death was up to him to decide! He stared blankly at Zhang Nuo, and it seemed as if a long time had passed before Zhang Nuo's words reached his ears!
"Sen... Senior! This junior truly did not know your esteemed self's true cultivation! If I had known, this junior would never have dared to be so presumptuous!"
Bowing one's head before a Spirit Severing Stage cultivator could perhaps not be considered shameful; after all, the other party's cultivation was high! In the Cultivation World, whoever's fist is harder is the absolute truth! Therefore, when Ma Huaidong said these words, those present did not mock him!
"I only gave you two choices! There are no others!"
Looking at Ma Huaidong's fawning smile, Zhang Nuo ignored him entirely, as if he were talking to himself!
"Ma Huaidong! You had better choose quickly! Otherwise, you won't have the chance in a moment!"
Han Liang sneered and then said to Ma Huaidong! He knew Zhang Nuo's temper all too well; he always cut weeds by the roots! If he had already made it clear that he was breaking with Ma Huaidong, it was impossible for him to let him go!
Ma Huaidong looked at Han Liang with angry eyes and really wanted to strangle him immediately! But Zhang Nuo's next words made him abandon this thought, because he couldn't afford to offend Han Liang either!
"Brother Han is right! You have no other path to take!"
Zhang Nuo looked at Han Liang; the two had not seen each other for many years, and he had not expected that their first meeting after returning would be in such a place!
"Senior Zhang! Senior Zhang! I beg you! I truly did not know your true cultivation! I beg you not to kill me!"
Kneeling on the ground and using his knees to move, Ma Huaidong inched toward Zhang Nuo step by step, wagging his tail and begging for pity like a dog! Zhuge Qing, who had collapsed in Xuan Jin's arms, though struck by a palm, was not yet at death's door! Looking at the man who had almost become her husband, she slowly closed her eyes!
Was Heaven pitying her? Zhang Nuo had appeared at such a critical moment!
Approaching Zhang Nuo step by step, Ma Huaidong was practically ready to call Zhang Nuo 'daddy'!
"If we were to swap places, and I were the one lying on the ground, would you spare me?"
Zhang Nuo said without the slightest emotion on his face! At this moment, Ma Huaidong was less than half a zhang away from Zhang Nuo; at such a close distance, he could fully sense the aura on Zhang Nuo's body!
Hearing these words, he was also stunned for a moment! But the answer was very clear! No!
