Chapter 1489: No Way, Right?

"Young Sect Master!"

At this moment, the many Great Luo Immortals of the Qinghong Sect finally reacted, their expressions changing drastically as they rushed forward.

"Kid, you're looking for death!"

Someone charged directly at Xu Que, launching a killing move the instant they acted.

"This is a foolish choice; even your Young Sect Master couldn't defeat me, so on what basis do a few mere Great Luo Loose Immortals dare to try killing me?" Xu Que asked with a smile, gently raising his palm.

Boom!

The Purple-Gold King-Forcing Staff, which had been stuck in the ground behind him, instantly soared up, stirring up massive waves of air and abruptly blasting away several Great Luo Loose Immortals who had attacked.

The King-Forcing Staff also instantly flew back into Xu Que's hand, while the few Great Luo Loose Immortals crashed to the ground one after another, their faces filled with shock and terror.

"This... how is this possible?"

Everyone present felt even greater disbelief.

Guan Chengping's expression instantly turned grave.

Although they were all Great Luo Immortals, and this lad had already reached the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, it was impossible for him to possess such strength.

Yet, facing a joint attack by several Great Luo Loose Immortals, he had directly created a situation of overwhelming suppression.

With just one move, he had blasted away several Great Luo Loose Immortals without them having any chance to resist!

With such strength... he was probably infinitely close to an Immortal King.

"This lad is at least at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Peak!" Guan Chengping judged in a deep voice.

"Brother Hua is actually so powerful!"

Guan Zheng, still being guarded by her own Great Luo Immortals, witnessed this scene as well and was stunned.

However, very quickly, her face instantly turned pale.

Hua Wuque had thoroughly and completely offended the Qinghong Sect to the death!

First, he beat Xiang Min into that state, and now he had injured several Great Luo Loose Immortals.

But among the people the Qinghong Sect had sent, there were still several powerhouses at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm; if they joined hands, then perhaps...

Thinking of this, Guan Zheng became somewhat panicked.

In her view, the reason Xu Que could beat Xiang Min into such a state was that Xu Que was one minor realm higher than Xiang Min.

The ability to blast away several Great Luo Loose Immortals was also a form of suppression based on realm, plus Xu Que's own strength was considered quite strong even among Great Luo Golden Immortals.

But if the opponents were changed to several Great Luo Golden Immortals, Xu Que would lose all his advantages.

Moreover, she recognized that among the Qinghong Sect's Great Luo Immortals, there was also a famously renowned Sword Immortal.

Also at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm, that Sword Immortal was rumored to be an existence capable of fighting three alone; once he acted and joined forces with the other few Great Luo Golden Immortals, Xu Que's disadvantage and fate could be imagined.

Thinking that all of this was caused by herself, Guan Zheng felt increasingly uneasy.

"Brother, I beg you, quickly make them stop," Guan Zheng shouted via Sound Transmission to Guan Chengping.

"Shut up," Guan Chengping immediately scolded angrily, "Zhengzheng, what propriety is there in you saying such things? Are you actually begging me for the sake of an insignificant outsider?"

Guan Chengping was greatly shocked that his own sister would go to such lengths for a rash young lad.

He clearly heard the plea for mercy in Guan Zheng's tone.

"Brother, if anything happens to Brother Hua, how can my conscience find peace? Do you want me to live my entire life consumed by guilt?" Guan Zheng replied via Sound Transmission.

Guan Zheng paused slightly.

He recalled that over so many years, while the Three Sects controlled the area around Jinghe City, they had naturally done many cruel things in secret.

But his sister had never participated in any of this, and didn't even know about it; she had always been well-protected, and her heart was still too pure and kind.

Very well, today he would use this matter to help her grow up properly.

Living in this world, if one's heart is not ruthless enough, the one who will suffer losses in the future will only be oneself!

Thinking of this, Guan Chengping's expression stiffened; he chose silence and no longer paid attention to Guan Zheng's pleas.

At the same time, Xu Que held the Purple-Gold King-Forcing Staff in his hand and wore the Purple-Gold Armor, radiating high spirits and an overwhelming aura.

He swept his gaze across the crowd from the Qinghong Sect, grinned, and said, "I already said I was going to rob you, yet you won't queue up properly and just keep causing trouble here; are you clearly intending to oppose my Blazing Heaven Sect?"

These words made all the onlookers present feel terrified.

Good heavens, he really dares to say such things!

You, alone on someone else's territory, shout about robbery, and then turn around and accuse them of not cooperating, claiming they want to oppose your Blazing Heaven Sect?

What kind of ghost logic is this?

"Hua Wuque of the Blazing Heaven Sect?"

At this moment, an old man in white robes walked out.

His beard and hair were entirely white, yet his face appeared very young and tender, a typical case of a child's face with crane's hair, and his temperament was otherworldly.

Only his gaze was incomably sharp; when making eye contact with others, his eyes were like sharp blades, making people dare not look directly at him.

"Lord Liu of the Qinghong Sect, the Sword Immortal N/A!" someone recognized the old man in white and exclaimed in shock.

Only then did the others suddenly realize the truth, immediately revealing expressions of shock.

This person was one of the best among the Great Luo Golden Immortals, and furthermore, he was the head of the Qinghong Sect's three Great Elders; his strength was extremely terrifying.

If he acted, this young man surnamed Hua would probably be finished.

"Eh, surprisingly, you are also a sword practitioner; your Sword Path's Path Rhyme is quite sharp!" Xu Que, at this moment, also examined Liu Yebai and exclaimed in admiration.

The Sword Intent on this person was indeed not to be underestimated, obviously indicating profound attainment in the aspect of the Sword Dao's Dao Rhyme.

"You do have some insight; in all the world, those who can identify my Sword Path's Path Rhyme at a glance are few and far between, but alas, you are a thief who has offended my Qinghong Sect and injured my Young Sect Master; today, you cannot leave!" Liu Yebai said indifferently, his expression unchanged.

"You flatter me, Sword Man!"

Xu Que smiled broadly, cupped his hands, and explained, "Don't misunderstand; when I say 'Sword Man,' I don't mean a sword practitioner, but rather that you are a despicable person!"

"Hmph, indulging in verbal triumphs cannot hurt me in the slightest, nor can it help you save your life."

N/A snorted coldly.

His form remained motionless, yet only a "clang" of metallic vibration was heard as a sharp blade suddenly shot out from his body, hovering in mid-air.

"Die!"

N/A waved his great hand and suddenly surged forward.

He wielded a three-foot green blade!

Sword light flickered, its edge fully revealed!

"This move... it's actually this move." Someone's face suddenly changed, shouting in alarm, "Not good, retreat quickly!"

"Sword Immortal N/A is using the Ten Thousand Swords Heaven and Earth Art; among those of the same realm, few can rival him. Below the Great Luo Immortal level, no one can even withstand the aftermath! Retreat quickly!"

The words had just fallen!

Endless sword light filled the sky, sword shadows surging like mountains and seas, sweeping out in devastation.

"Boom!"

In an instant!

Some cultivators in the Imperial Physician Immortal Realm who hadn't had time to dodge were all blown away by the aftermath.

Those standing slightly closer had their arms directly shredded by the sword wind, flesh and blood flying everywhere, their arm bones shattering.

Even those standing outside the battle circle suffered such injuries...

What about within that sword light?

That fellow calling himself Hua Wuque doesn't seem to have escaped!

"Alas! What a pity!"

Someone couldn't help but sigh softly.

In this world, how many people can directly withstand this move of Sword Immortal Liu?

That youth of extraordinary talent, who had great hope of breaking into the Immortal King Realm, has probably perished right here!

If only he had been willing to admit his mistake and bow his head at the start, even if he had to sever both his own arms, perhaps the result wouldn't have been so dire.

Even if resentment filled his heart, as long as he fled this place and diligently cultivated, within a few hundred years he might possibly achieve the status of an Immortal King, and then return to seek revenge—wouldn't that also work?

Yet he simply didn't understand the principle that rigidity leads to breaking, acting so extremely!

In the end, he was simply too arrogant!

"Brother Hua..." Guan Zheng looked completely dazed, murmuring in a low voice.

"Just this?"

Suddenly, from within the gradually dimming sword light, came Xu Que's mocking and disdainful voice.

"What?"

Everyone present was suddenly startled.

"No way, no way, surely no one learned a little acupuncture technique and then claimed to be a Sword Immortal, right?"

Accompanied by Xu Que's sarcastic tone, the sword light completely faded, and Xu Que's figure emerged from within.
