My Cold and Elegant CEO Wife - Chapter 1406

Chapter 1406: Wounding Wuji Gui

 

The passing self-cultivators all regretted their choices to come witness the fight.

They had stayed to watch Qingfeng Li fight Wuji Gui for entertainment, but they never imagined that they would be affected by the residual energy waves of the fight. The powerful surge of energy sent their bodies flying, dropping them heavily onto the ground, their bodies covered with dirt.

Fortunately, these self-cultivators were all extremely powerful. If they weren’t, they would’ve been ripped apart by the massive energy.

Seeing that his skull failed to defeat Qingfeng Li, Wuji Gui roared and unleashed the second blade technique of the Skull Blade. Suddenly, two skulls emerged, smashing towards Qingfeng Li from two directions, sandwiching his body.

Qingfeng Li was of course, completely unfazed, unleashing the second skill of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. Suddenly, the sword’s red flaming sword energy formed into a giant river, washing away the two black skulls as if it were waves of magma sent from heaven.

Wuji Gui wasn’t about to give up so easily. He immediately unleashed the third and fourth blade technique of the Skull Blade, sending out attacks toward Qingfeng Li. Unfortunately, Qingfeng Li was much too strong for Wuji Gui’s attacks.

At the same that he was battling Wuji Gui, Qingfeng Li was practicing his sword technique as well.

The Fire Emperor Sword Technique had four swords in total. They were the Fire Mountain, the Fire River, the Fire Elephant, and the Fire Lion.

Qingfeng Li had already mastered three out of the four techniques, leaving only the fourth technique, the Fire Lion, to be mastered.

As they battled, Qingfeng Li practiced the fourth technique, going through it in his mind and attempting to form his fire sword energy into a lion.

Lions were known as the king of all beasts and the king of forests. Like tigers, they were rulers of the jungle.

Shortly afterward, Qingfeng Li managed to master the fourth technique of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. With a wave of his sword, he was now able to form a lion. He had learned the beginning stages of the fourth sword technique.

Qingfeng Li continued his efforts to create a fire lion. Slowly, he began to shape the fire sword energy into a neck, a torso, limbs, a tail, and finally a complete lion.

The Fire Lion opened its mouth and spewed out a fireball, shooting it towards Wuji Gui’s Skull Blade, incinerating it into nothingness.

The Fire Emperor Sword Technique’s fourth sword, the Fire Lion, was clearly superior to the other three sword techniques.

“Fire Lion!” With a loud roar, Qingfeng Li directly unleashed the fourth sword of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. At the same time, he activated the fire sword intent within his body, unleashing a massive wave of energy.

Suddenly, countless fire lions were surrounding Qingfeng Li. The rocks, bushes, trees, mountains, and even air all transformed into fire lions, amounting to hundreds and laying siege on Wuji Gui.

The hundreds of fire lions all charged toward Wuji Gui, wanting to rip him into pieces.

Wuji Gui panicked as his eyes froze. With a wave of his hand, the Skull Blade conjured hundreds of skulls.

Every skull dazzled with black Sky Dao Talisman scripts, working to fend off the fire lions. But the fire lions were too hot and too powerful; the skulls were helpless against them.

Papapapapa…

Shortly after, the few hundreds of vital essence skulls that had appeared were all incinerated into nothingness, disappearing into thin air.

Finally, the hundreds of fire lions all integrated into a single massive one. With an enormous amount of fire sword intent, the fire lion smashed into Wuji Gui’s body ferociously, tearing apart his clothes, sending him flying.

Puh!

Wuji Gui spewed out a huge gush of blood, his face colorless and his body injured.

At the sight of this, the disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect all panicked, their eyes full of shock.

“How is this possible? Wuji Gui is the number one master of our Ghost-Emperor Sect’s younger generation. How could he lose to Qingfeng Li?”

“Yeah! The young sect master is invincible across the entire self-cultivation world. He’s one of the best fighters within the younger generation. How could he have lost?”

“If our young sect master loses, what do we do? Do we stay or run?”

The disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect all panicked as they erupted into chatter.

At the sound of their voices, Wuji Gui was livid. Useless! Not only are they not helping me, they’re even thinking about running away?!

Wuji Gui was enraged. He turned and yelled towards his disciples, “Everyone attack! Kill Qingfeng Li for me.”

Although they were afraid, the disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect came charging at Qingfeng Li with their fists, blades, and swords at the sound of Wuji Gui’s command.

They were disciples of the Ghost-Emperor Sect. If they didn’t listen to Wuji Gui, they would’ve been killed even if they made it back alive.

Qingfeng Li had just learned the fourth skill of the Fire Emperor Sword Technique. It truly was formidable. With the strike of the long sword, the sword energy formed a giant fire lion, incinerating the dozens of disciples instantly and reducing them to ashes.

“Essence blood Incineration. Escape!” While the dozens of disciples attacked Qingfeng Li, Wuji Gui burned his essence blood, transforming into a ray of black lightning and disappearing instantly.

“Wuji Gui, you sure are fast. I’ll be sure to kill you the next time we meet.” At the sight of Wuji Gui escaping, Qingfeng Li looked deadly as could be.

This time, the young sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect, Wuji Gui left completely empty-handed. He brought with him his girlfriend and his disciples to steal the giant centipede’s demonic pill. But to his dismay, he lost everyone that he brought, failed to obtain the demonic pill, and left heavily injured.

Qingfeng Li turned and walked towards Black Puppy. “Little dog, hurry up and refine the demonic pill to elevate your abilities. Then lead us to the Chief Badge.”

Black Puppy walked to the side and sat down cross-legged as if it were a human self-cultivator. With its two front paws set in front,

Black Puppy channeled a canine-type cultivation chant. Reaching out one of its paws, Black Puppy directly placed the demonic pill into its mouth.

The demonic pill entered Black Puppy’s mouth, traveling along its throat, esophagus, stomach tracks, and finally into its Dantian.

Black Puppy’s veins carried a black energy. The black energy formed into many small black vortices, with each holding an incredible amount of torque, shredding the demonic pill and absorbing its powers.

The demonic pill contained a massive amount of Demonic Vitality. After it was absorbed by the many black vortices, it transformed into rays of black energy, entering the depth of Black Puppy’s body, churning in it endlessly, ultimately gathering in its Dantian, and forming its demonic nucleus.

Shortly afterward, Black Puppy opened its eyes. From them, two black rays of light shot through, destroying the rocks in front into nothingness.

Powerful energy exuded from Black Puppy’s body, shooting straight for the heavens.

Chapter 1407: Linger Yao Being Hunted Down

 

Qingfeng Li was thrilled when he felt how powerful Black Puppy had become.

Qingfeng Li knew that Black Puppy must have had a breakthrough. It was within the First Level of the Spirit Emperor Realm before, and now it had reached the Second Level.

Sky-Devouring Snake walked towards the puppy and said, “Puppy, you have reached the Second Level?”

Black Puppy laughed and said arrogantly, “You Little Snake, I had a breakthrough and you are still in the First Level of the Spirit Emperor Realm. There is no way you can defeat me.”

Sky-Devouring Snake rolled its eyes and said, “Don’t be so c*cky, you had a breakthrough only because you consumed the demonic pill of the Giant Centipede. Later, when I kill another demonic beast and consume its demonic pill, I will have a breakthrough as well.”

Black Puppy and the Sky-Devouring Snake had always been talking trash to each other. Sometimes, they would even start fighting.

They were competing against each other, so whenever they saw that the other had a breakthrough, their minds would be filled with jealousy and envy.

Qingfeng Li smiled gently and said, “Stop it, you two. Let’s get going and find the Chief Badge.”

Qingfeng Li took the lead as Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake followed behind him. They were walking slowly.

Inside the Dragon-Tiger Mountain, unimaginable dangers were everywhere. Demonic beasts could attack at any time, so therefore it was safer to be cautious.

Like the Kunlun Mountains, Dragon-Tiger Mountain was divided into four areas: the exterior, the interior, the center, and the core. The deeper, the more dangerous it would be. Qingfeng and the rest were still within the exterior region of the mountains.

Ten miles from where they left off, Qingfeng and everyone encountered another powerful Demonic beast .

This demonic beast was a giant python, almost 500 hundred meters long and forming a little mountain as it curled up.

He drew his Fire Emperor Sword, ready to kill the giant python, but Sky-Devouring Snake stopped him from attacking.

Qingfeng Li knew that Sky-Devouring Snake wanted to kill the Python so that it could consume the Python’s demonic pill and strengthen its power.

He nodded and backed down. The reasons he brought Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake along was to make sure he had backup. On the other hand, he also wanted to strengthen their powers.

When Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake become more powerful, Qingfeng would have more reliable help whenever he was in trouble.

Qingfeng took a few steps back and let Sky-Devouring Snake face the giant python. The ginormous python was covered in black scales, and its giant eyes were exuding murderous cold chills.

The giant python was the ruler of everything within 20 miles of Dragon-Tiger Mountain. Like the giant centipede, it was a powerful demonic beast.

The giant python waved its tail and sliced through the air, smashing towards the d*mn little snake right in front of it.

For the giant python, Sky-Devouring Snake was so tiny that its tail was even bigger than him. It thought that it would be extremely easy to kill Sky-Devouring Snake. However, Sky-Devouring Snake’s arrogant face looked like he was mocking the Python, making it very angry.

Facing the giant python’s attack, Sky-Devouring Snake did not care about its body and jumped into the air.

Sky-Devouring Snake was as fast as a bolt of black lightning, appearing in front of the Python before it could even react, and heavily biting the Python in its neck. A giant bloody hole appeared on the Python’s neck as its blood splashed everywhere.

Sky-Devouring Snake opened its mouth again and started to suck the blood of the Python. As the blood entered its body, it turned into energy for the snake.

The giant python’s body started shrinking in an observable speed and turned into a pile of dry skin not long after. The python fell onto the ground and died.

One had to mention that Sky-Devouring Snake was very powerful. It did not take long for him to kill the giant python as his attack was clean and deadly.

Sky-Devouring Snake crawled to the giant python and tore open its body with his mouth, finding a giant demonic pill inside.

This was the demonic pill of the giant python, and it was extremely big.

The dark demonic pill contained all the power that the Python had gained throughout its life. As the Python died, the demonic pill belonged to no one.

Sky-Devouring Snake swallowed the demonic pill and started to absorb its power.

It did not take long for Sky-Devouring Snake to absorb all of its power and turn all the energy into its own strength.

Like Black Puppy, Sky-Devouring Snake had reached the Second Level Spirit Emperor Realm. His body became bigger, exuding a powerful force.

Although Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake had more cultivation compared to Qingfeng, Qingfeng still had the strongest fighting power among all of them.

Both Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake had a breakthrough and already reached the Second Level of the Spirit Emperor Realm.

Qingfeng Li and the rest continued their trip. Although they have encountered a few demonic beasts, none of those beasts could match-up with their power.

Qingfeng was casually flourishing his sword and killing all those beasts, giving all the demonic pills from the demonic beasts to Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake and increasing their strengths and powers.

Qingfeng Li asked Black Puppy who was right next to him a question. “Puppy, Dragon-Tiger Mountain is so big. How can we find the Chief Badge?”

Black Puppy shook its head and said, “I don’t know either. All we can do now is to keep walking. If I am right, the Chief Badge should be in the middle of the Mountain.”

Not far from where Qingfeng left off, they heard a few cultivators arguing.

Tens of self-cultivators were camping under a giant tree. They were quietly discussing what happened on the mountain while they were eating.

“Did you hear that Linger Yao is being hunted down.”

“Linger Yao is the Sect Master of the Demonic-Imperial Sect, and she has also reached the fourth level of the Spirit King Realm. Who can hunt him down?”

“Oh, so you don’t know. It is the Sect Master of the Ghost-Emperor who is hunting her down!”

“How could Linger Yao offend the sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect? I thought they were friends.”

“You still don’t know? Linger Yao was defending Qingfeng Li against the sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect right outside Dragon-Tiger Mountain. Now, she is on the mountain and being hunted down.”

Those self-cultivators were resting inside their camps and were discussing what they saw.

Qingfeng was passing by when he heard the conversation. His eyes were filled with anger and mumbled, “God Da*mmit. How dare the Ghost-Emperor Sect hunt down Linger Yao.”

Qingfeng stompled on the ground and his body turned into a whirlwind, suddenly appearing in front of the self-cultivators.

“Who is this! What are you doing here!” A long-haired self-cultivator at the front stood up and asked when he saw the arrival of Qingfeng Li.

Chapter 1408: The Angry Qingfeng

 

Qingfeng Li smiled gently and said, “I am Qingfeng Li. Now tell me, where is Linger Yao?”

After Qingfeng’s comment, the long-haired self-cultivator’s face turned pale, since he knew how powerful Qingfeng was.

Qingfeng Li was named the Number One self-cultivator of the younger generation of self-cultivators. Even those old sect masters of the Emperor level sects might not be able to defeat him.

“Qingfeng Li, we met Linger Yao in the forest about 50 miles from here. She was hunted down by the sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect,” the long-haired self-cultivator told Qingfeng everything he knew immediately.

Qingfeng thanked the self-cultivator and hustled towards the forest with Black Puppy and Sky-Devouring Snake.

He was running extremely fast since he was very worried about Linger Yao getting caught.

While Qingfeng was on his way, he met more self-cultivators who were all talking about Linger Yao as well.

As Linger Yao was the sect master of the Demonic-Imperial Sect, she was very famous within the world of self-cultivators. Not to mention that she was an extremely beautiful woman, many admirers sympathized with her when they saw her hunted down by the sect master of the Ghost-Emperor Sect.

Ten minutes later, Qingfeng, Black Puppy, and Sky-Devouring Snake arrived the forest.

Qingfeng looked at the forest, all he could see were giant ancient trees covered in vines and flowers, and some unknown demonic beasts roaring.

Suddenly, his eyes stopped. He noticed a purple cloth with some blood on it.

Qingfeng picked up the cloth and looked at it carefully, remembering that this cloth came from the clothes Linger Yao was wearing. He could clearly remember that the material of Linger Yao’s clothes was exactly the same as this cloth.

And with the blood on the cloth, it was clear that Linger Yao was injured.

Although Linger Yao was very powerful, there was still some distance comparing her to the Ghost-Emperor Sect’s sect master’s power.

Black Puppy recognized the purple cloth and said, “Qingfeng Li, isn’t this the cloth from Linger Yao’s clothes?”

Sky-Devouring Snake replied, “That’s right. I have seen her wearing a purple dress, and this is definitely a piece of the dress. The blood should be hers as well.”

Qingfeng nodded and said, “You two follow me into the forest in front of us right now. Puppy, use your nose and see if you can smell her and find out where she is.”

When Black Puppy realized this was an emergency, it immediately started smelling with its nose.

Black Puppy had seen Linger Yao before, therefore it could recognize her scent. It didn’t take long for the puppy to figure out that she gone to the north.

“Let’s go,” Qingfeng Li followed the Puppy’s direction and started sprinting to the north.

At the moment, Linger Yao was hunted down by the Ghost-Emperor Sect’s sect-master.

She was in bad shape as her clothes had been ripped by blades and were covered in blood. Even some of her hair had been cut off.

Right behind Linger Yao was Xiao Gui. He was hunting Linger Yao down with a murderous face.

“Linger Yao, stop running. You know you can’t outrun me!” Xiao Gui looked at Linger Yao and smiled cold-bloodedly.

Three elders were following Xiao Gui, and they were all spread out, surrounding Linger Yao.

Linger Yao was channeling the vital essence crazily inside her body and ran as fast as she could in order to escape from Xiao Gui.

Suddenly, Linger Yao stopped because she saw a guy ahead of her – the sect master of the Sword-Emperor Sect, Jianhuang Zhao.

“Move Jianhuang Zhao! Don’t block my way!” Linger Yao said coldly to Zhao.

A hint of anger appeared in her voice as she was planning to escape through where Jianhuang Zhao was standing. However, this guy suddenly appeared and blocked her way.

At the moment, Linger Yao couldn’t stop because of the deadly threat right behind her – Xiao Gui.

Although there were many disciples from the Demonic-Imperial Sect, they were all killed by Xiao Gui. Not even Linger Yao could handle Xiao Gui, not to mention the disciples.

Jianhuang Zhao gave a cold smile and said, “Linger Yao, don’t even think about going through me.”

Jianhuang was very angry at Linger Yao since she had provided aids to Qingfeng Li back at the Kunlun Mountains.

If it wasn’t Linger Yao, Jianhuang Zhao could’ve gotten more spiritual Treasures and cultivation techniques. However, these things were all in Qingfeng Li’s hands because of her. That was why Zhao hated her so much.

Linger Yao waved her palms and formed a giant vital essence palm, slapping towards the front.

Jianhuang Zhao smiled coldly and unsheathed his long sword. He slashed towards Linger Yao, shattering her vital essence palm.

Linger Yao was already injured and was no-match for Jianhuang Zhao. She was now trapped by Xiao Gui and the three elders because of Jianhuang’s attack.

She was in great danger at the moment as Jianhuang was in front of her, and Xiao Gui was right behind her. There was no way for her to escape.

Linger Yao knew she couldn’t escape. She stopped and turned around to coldly stare at Xiao Gui.

“Linger Yao, today you are going to face your death. I am not only going to kill you, I am also going to trap your soul into my sword,” Xiao Gui said to Linger Yao with a murderous face.

“Kill me if you can!” A cold light flashed in Linger Yao’s eyes, as she was not about to give up.

Linger Yao shot out her palm against Xiao Gui. However, she was weaker, and no match for his power. A few moments later, Linger Yao was severely injured as her face turned pale and she started spitting blood.

Seeing Linger Yao injured, Jianhuang Zhao suddenly attacked her from the back. In a blink of an eye, a giant hole appeared on Linger Yao’s abdomen as Jianhuang Zhao stabbed through her body.

It was a despicable move from Jianhuang Zhao. Linger Yao’s injuries were now life-threatening.

Paatooom!

Linger Yao’s body smashed into the ground as she continued to spit blood out of her mouth. Her face turned pale as the hole in her body bled ceaselessly.

Xiao Gui looked at Jianhuang Zhao and said, “I am going to chop this woman’s head off myself. Do you have a problem with that?”

Chapter 1409: Treating Linger Yao

 

Jianhuang Zhao waved his hand and said immediately, “Of course I agree with it.”

Xiao Gui, who was in front of him was much stronger than he was. There was no way that he would dare to revolt.

Jianhuang Zhao pointed at the Third Elder beside him and said, “You shall go! Use the long blade in your hand and chop off her head.”

Third Elder took the long blade in his hands and walked in front of Linger Yao.

“Linger Yao, today will be the end of your life. Aren’t you so powerful, you were even able to stop me from killing Qingfeng Li,” the Third Elder looked at Linger Yao, who was lying on the ground with blood leaking from her mouth, and said coldly. There was no pity in his eyes, only ridicule.

Linger Yao looked pale, her mouth bleeding constantly. Her clothes were dyed red by the blood but she didn’t say anything. She just looked at the Third Elder coldly.

The Third Elder was full of rage because of the peaceful expression in Linger Yao’s eyes. He felt that the woman in front of him was about to die soon and should be begging for mercy now, but Linger Yao didn’t. She just looked at her peacefully which didn’t give him the feeling that he was important.

“Linger Yao, that boy toy, Qingfeng Li. Why didn’t he come and save you?” Third Elder sneered at Linger Yao.

Linger Yao finally opened her mouth, but her voice was chilling and he said, “The time when Qingfeng Li is here will be the time of your death.”

Third Elder smiled coldly and started to talk, “Your mouth is tough. Even if Qingfeng Li is here, he wouldn’t be able to save you. Our sect master is here and he can even kill Qingfeng Li, too.”

Xiao Gui saw that the Third Elder and Linger Yao were talking and started to look impatient. These two guys were talking too much.

“Third Elder, stop talking. Kill Linger Yao immediately and bring over her head now,” Xiao Gui commanded the Third Elder.

“Yes, Sect Master.” The Third Elder nodded and raised the long blade in his hands, hacking towards the neck of Linger Yao on the ground.

Linger Yao now was seriously injured and the vital essence in her body was all exhausted. She couldn’t escape, nor attack. All she could do was watching the long blade of the Third Elder cutting towards her neck.

Feeling the murderous intent and the deep coldness of the long blade, Linger Yao closed her eyes, feeling desperate but also peaceful.

Linger Yao was the sect master of the Demonic-Imperial Sect and also the best in the Demonic Dao. But now, she was dying.

Before dying, Linger Yao thought a lot, and she began recollecting the memories of her past life.

When Linger Yao was about three years old, she was adopted as a disciple by the previous sect master of Demonic-Imperial Sect and from that time on, she started to practice at the Demonic-Imperial Sect.

She was gifted since a young age with great comprehension abilities. She would understand the demon techniques as soon as she learnt them, allowing her to quickly reach the Spirit Emperor Realm at a young age and become the strongest in the Demonic Dao.

In the previous twenty years, Linger Yao had been practicing all the time until she met Qingfeng Li at the Kunlun Mountain forbidden area. From that time, she started to understand how different life could be and how nice it was to be taken care of by a man.

But now, Linger Yao wouldn’t be able to see Qingfeng Li anymore, the one that cared about her. Linger Yao felt a little regret, regretting that she couldn’t see the man that she had feelings for before death,

“Qingfeng Li, goodbye now. I hope that I will see you again in the after life.” Linger Yao started talking to herself.

At the moment that Qingfeng Li arrived at the forest, he saw the Third Elder lifting up the long blade in his hand and swinging it towards Linger Yao’s head.

“Third Elder, how dare you?” The look on Qingfeng Li’s face changed and a cold light flashed in his eyes. At that time, he was about a hundred meters away from Linger Yao, so it was too late to fly over and stop him.

At the critical moment, Qingfeng Li channeled the vital essence in his body and stretched out his right index finger. He pointed towards the front and shot a green light out.

That green light came like the unforeseen, like coming from another world, containing invincible power and breaking through the air, tearing apart space. It arrived immediately at the long blade of the Third Elder. You can only hear a bang sound and see that the long blade broke into two.

The green light was not weak. It was the Conqueror’s Finger, which was taught to Qingfeng by his father, and he used it to save Linger Yao.

The long blade in Third Elder’s hand broke into two and didn’t hurt Linger Yao at all. She had escaped from the knife.

Qingfeng Li used this time and stomped off the ground with strength. His body flew up like a lightning flash and suddenly arrived at the side of Linger Yao.

Qingfeng Li saw Linger Yao’s bleeding mouth and the big hole in her stomach. Her whole body was dyed with blood and her dress was ripped with many injuries covering her body. Qingfeng Li’s face started to look gloomy and his eyes filled with coldness.

Qingfeng Li never imagined that Linger Yao was hurt so badly.

Damn Xiao Gui and Jianhuang Zhao! How dare they treated Linger Yao like this. Raging flames raised in Qingfeng Li’s heart.

As you know, the reason why Linger Yao was hurt so greatly was all because of Qingfeng Li himself. She protected him and thus offended Xiao Gui and Jianhuang Zhao and was hunted down by them.

“Linger Yao, are you all right?” Qingfeng Li said with concern.

Hearing the familiar voice, Linger Yao opened her eyes, feeling amazed. She thought she was dying just now and was already silently saying goodbye to Qingfeng Li. She did not expect to hear his voice, not to mention actually seeing him in person, the next moment.

“Am I dreaming now? Did I arrive at hell already?” Linger Yao was pale and said in a daze.

Qingfeng Li waved his head with love and concern in his eyes and said, “You are not dreaming. I am here.”

Keke!!

As soon as Linger Yao spoke, her scabbing injuries were opened again and blood began coming out from her mouth. Qingfeng felt like his heart was being stabbed at the sight of this.

Qingfeng Li quickly said, “Linger Yao, please stop talking. I will heal you.”

Qingfeng Li reached out his right hand and wiped the blood off of her face and mouth. Then he used his left hand to pat her back. He started to infuse his vital essence into her through his hand.

Looking at Qingfeng Li healing Linger Yao, a cold light flashed in the eyes of Third Elder beside them. He felt like he was being ignored and insulted by them. He was standing right beside them, yet Qingfeng just ignored him, not responding to him at all and jumping straight to healing Linger Yao.

Because Qingfeng Li was healing Linger Yao, his back was facing the Third Elder, which provided him a chance.

“Qingfeng Li, since you want to die, I will grant your wish,” the Third Elder sneered with coldness in his eyes.

He suddenly lashed out with his right hand, clawing viciously at Qingfeng Li’s heart from the back, trying to tear apart his chest apart.

Chapter 1410: The Slaughter

 

Qingfeng Li’s left hand was touching Linger Yao’s back, channeling his vital essence into her body in an attempt to heal her. Suddenly he frowned because he felt a murderous feeling from his back.

The Third Elder had lashed out his hands, trying to grab Qingfeng’s heart.

Qingfeng Li sneered as a freezing light flashed in his eyes. He didn’t even turn his head, directly reaching back his right hand and immediately grabbing the hand of the Third Elder. Then he squeezed and ripped away.

Click!

They only heard a rattle and saw that the Third Elder’s claw was ripped off by Qingfeng Li.

Blood was spraying along the Third Elder’s broken stump and even the bleached bones inside were visible.

The Third Elder opened his mouth with a shrill cry. He began to look pale because the pain from having his hand ripped off was too much for him.

“Qingfeng Li, you bastard. How dare you break my hand!” the Third Elder’s face changed as he scolded Qingfeng Li. His eyes full of anger.

The Third Elder wanted to attack Qingfeng Li’s heart from behind in an attempt to kill him, but he did not expect that Qingfeng Li would be so powerful. He just sat there without moving and broke my right hand!

But the Third Elder didn’t know that Qingfeng Li had practiced the Mortal Purgatory body technique. How could the Third Elder be his opponent?

Qingfeng Li smiled grimly, directly taking out the Fire Emperor’s Sword from his interspatial ring and striking forward, unleashing a beam of red flame sword energy with a powerful light. It condensed into a flame lion and directly cut across the neck of the Third Elder.

Puchi!

The Third Elder’s head dropped onto the ground and blood started to splash out.

With one sword strike, the Third Elder of the Ghost Emperor Clan was dead.

Everyone around saw this scene and was shocked, their eyes filled with disbelief.

When they were outside Dragon-Tiger Mountain, Qingfeng Li didn’t seem to be that powerful. But now after they entered Dragon-Tiger Mountain, he released such a powerful sword technique. The attack killed the Third Elder with only one strike!

“Third Brother, you died so miserably.” The first elder and the second elder saw the head of the third elder’s head cut off by Qingfeng Li and let out a scream.

The three elders of the Ghost Emperor Clan were brothers and were very close. They started practicing together since a young age and did a lot of bad things together. Now that Qingfeng Li killed the third elder, the other two were clearly very angry.

Even though he could sense the rage of the first and second elders, Qingfeng Li didn’t even look at them. Now all of Qingfeng Li’s heart was on Linger Yao and he continued channeling the vital essence in his body to help heal her.

Qingfeng Li took nine needles from his bag and poked them onto Linger Yao’s belly in order to help her stop the blood from bleeding out.

There was a hole in her belly. Qingfeng Li first helped her clean up the congestion around and then inserted the needles into the acupoints to control the flow of the blood. Then he took out the healing powder and applied it Lastly, he tore off a sleeve to bandage the wound.

After Qingfeng Li did all of these, the first and second elders f behind both waved the long blade to attack him.

Both the first elder and second elder of the Ghost Emperor Sect were powerful and were four levels higher than Qingfeng Li. As soon as he attacked, the giant earthquakes and landslides happened and sand and stones were sent flying as explosions took place all around.

The practicers around were backing off, looking pale and afraid that this powerful attack would spread and hurt them.

Qingfeng Li didn’t hesitate at all, directly taking out the golden calabash from his interspatial ring and aiming at the two powerful men in front of them. The calabash released two golden lightning bolts that immediately shot at the two elders.

However the two elders were very powerful and used their fists and palms to resist the golden energy attack.

The first elder flourished the long blade in his hands and the second elder swung his fists. The two started to attack Qingfeng Li from two directions, trying to kill him.

Linger Yao was still lying beside Qingfeng Li. He didn’t want Linger Yao to be harmed so he had to finish the two elders in one attack.

Qingfeng Li thought it over and decided to use a spirit attack. His spirit attack was very powerful and had already reached the emperor level. It was more than enough to deal with the two elders.

“Lion Roar! Splitting heavens and earth.” Qingfeng Li shouted, directly using the second roar of Lion Roar.

This was the most powerful roar that Qingfeng Li had mastered currently. It directly formed two golden lions, glowing with light, formed by powerful sonic waves.

The two golden sonic lions rushed towards the first and second elders, with a high speed like two golden lightning bolts, rushing into the minds of the two elders instantly.

Suddenly, both the first and second elders stopped their body and just stood their with their hands over their heads. Immediately, they uttered a shrill cry.

Although the two elders had very strong powers and were a few levels higher than Qingfeng Li, their spiritual strength was not as powerful as his.

After all, in Qingfeng Li’s mind, there were the Black-White Mill Stone and the Fire Dragon’s soul remnant, uniting a powerful spiritual force which was much more powerful than any ordinary masters in the Spirit Emperor Realm. It was just that Qingfeng didn’t use spiritual attacks that much because they caused a huge consumption of his own spiritual energy.

With Qingefng Li’s current ability, he could definitely form a second spiritual attack. But any more than that might harm him or make him feel tired, which would provide the enemy a chance to win.

The first and second elders tried to resist the spiritual lion from invading their soul.

But for a while, the spiritual power of the two elders would not be able to fight over the spiritual lion. Their mental strength could only be torn up. They couldn’t care about what Qingfeng Li was doing.

Qingfeng Li would not let this good chance pass. His feet stomped on the ground with power and his body flew through the air, arriving at the side of the first elder immediately.

The first elder of the Ghost Emperor Clan was a master only a little bit weaker than Xiao Gui. Qingfeng Li wanted to kill him first.

Qingfeng suddenly waved the Fire Emperor Sword in his hands and stabbed forward with great power. There was a pow sound and the sword directly stabbed into the First Elder’s heart, penetrating it. The body of the First Elder splashed on the ground and lost any signs of life.

After killing the First Elder, Qingfeng stepped up again and arrived to the side of the second elder with a sword stabbing from down to up and directly cutting off the head of the Second Elder and making him a headless corpse.

Splash!

The second elder’s body fell on the ground. Dead.

Suddenly, both the first and second elders, who seemed to be extremely powerful, died by Qingfeng Li’s hand.

The people around were all shocked, with their faces in disbelief.

Everyone knew that the Ghost Emperor Sect were considered an intermediate-tier emperor-level sect. They were the top of their group, but now, they had been easily killed by Qingfeng Li.

Chapter 1411: Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate

 

“Qingfeng Li was too strong, having the ability to kill all three elders of the Ghost Emperor Sect.”

“You are right, I never thought that Qingfeng Li could be that powerful. His sword techniques are simple invincible, able to conjure up a flaming lion.”

“Thank god I am not Qingfeng Li’s enemy. If I was up against him, I would die from one strike as well.”

The self-cultivators who were standing around were shocked. They looked at Qingfeng Li like they were looking at a monster.

One must know that Qingfeng Li was extremely young, only about twenty years old. And relatively speaking, it could be said that he had just joined the world of self-cultivation.

Many practitioners at the Spirit Emperor Realm were about forty to fifty years old and some were about sixty to seventy years old yet still were not able to enter this level.

Qingfeng Li was so young but he could reach such a high level. He must be the strongest of the younger generation!

Linger Yao looked at Qingfeng Li with surprise and delight.

She was clear that the first time she saw Qingfeng Li was at the forbidden district of Kunlun Mountain. At that time, Qingfeng Li was only at the Spirit King Realm and had limited power. He was not her match at all.

But now, Qingfeng Li had already become so powerful. Although his strength didn’t break though to the Spirit Emperor Realm, his combat ability was much stronger than that.

Linger Yao even had the feeling that if it was herself that was up against Qingfeng Li, she wouldn’t have a chance at victory because the sword technique he used just now was too powerful. That was the Fire Emperor Sword Technique, which originated from Mars, a high-tier planet.

Looking at the three elders that were killed by Qingfeng Li, the look on Xiao Gui’s face changed. A flame of anger appeared in his eyes, as a murderous intent filled his mind.

“Qingfeng Li, you damn bastard! How dare you kill the elders of our sect. I will tear you into pieces today!” Xiao Gui looked at Qingfeng Li and said with coldness.

Qingfeng Li didn’t respond to Xiao Gui because he was healing Linger Yao. In just a while, Qingfeng had stopped all the bleeding on Linger Yao’s body. There were only a few injuries that were also slowly recovering.

Linger Yao stopped bleeding and she had restored a lot of vital essence in her body, which made her face rosier. She could feel more strength in her body now and could stand up now.

“Puppy, Snake, you two are responsible for taking care of Linger Yao. Don’t let anyone hurt her,” Qingfeng Li said to the black little dog and snake beside him.

Qingfeng then turned over and looked at Xiao Gui behind him, with a cold facial expression.

“Xiao Gui, aren’t you trying to avenge your elders? Come. Today, only one of us will leave alive.” Towards Xiao Gui, Qingfeng Li was very angry because everyone in the Ghost Emperor Sect were not good people.

Before, in Huaxia, the Ghost King Palace was chasing Qingfeng L, and even now, at the Dragon-Tiger Mountain, the Ghost Emperor Sect wouldn’t let Qingfeng Li go. Towards his enemies, Qingfeng Li wouldn’t need to feel sorry.

Xiao Gui walked towards Qingfeng Li; every step he took left a huge hole on the ground.

Xiao Gui’s face started to look serious because he already knew how powerful Qingfeng Li was since he watched the fight between them and the three elders.

Xiao Gui took out a plate from his interspatial ring. The plate was very strange. Although it was just like any plate that we put our food on, it was different since this plate was not made with china or glass, but with meteorite, thousand-year-old white gold, and darksteel.

On the top of the plate were engraved talisman script symbols of the Heaven Dao that looked like tadpoles. Some were long and some were short. Some were on the top and some on the bottom and some on the left and some on the right, together forming a lotus pattern.

The Lotus pattern emitted a very strong aura. The first second he took the plate out, the air began shaking as if the dimension was about to shatter.

Seeing Xiao Gui taking out the white plate, Linger Yao’s expression changed because she recognized it. This was a very powerful treasure.

“Qingfeng, be careful. That white plate is the Lotus Emperor Plate! It is very powerful and famous since it is a sixth level Emperor-grade spiritual device,” Linger Yao spoke to Qingfeng Li.

Hearing what Linger Yao said, Qingfeng Li frowned. He never imagined that the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate that Xiao Gui took out was so powerful.

This actually confused Qingfeng Li – Xiao Gui was only at the fifth level of the Spirit Emperor Realm himself, so it was surprising that he could use a sixth level Spirit Emperor level artifact. It must be because Xiao Gui mastered some kind of secret technique.

Xiao Gui didn’t use his physical body to attack Qingfeng Li because he knew that the Fire Emperor Sword Technique was very powerful. Thus, he took out the Lotus Emperor Plate.

Xiao Gui channeled the vital essence in his body and suddenly stretched out his right hand, slapping the back side of the white plate with strength. Then the white plate suddenly emitted a green light.

The green light shot out from the Lotus in the middle of the white plate, like a lightning bolt tearing the air, and arrived immediately in front of Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li began to look serious and didn’t dare to take this carelessly. He immediately took out the golden calabash from his interspatial ring and channeled the fire vital essence within his body into it. Then, he opened the lid and pointed it forward.

A golden light shot out from the calabash, shining brightly and clashing with the green light shot out by the Lotus Emperor Plate.

Both of the two were super treasures. As they hit each other, a loud bang was heard, but the next moment, the golden energy from the golden calabash’s trajectory was altered.

The green light emitted from the Lotus Emperor’s Plate was very powerful, hitting the golden energy out of its trajectory and coming straight for Qingfeng.

The look on Qingfeng Li’s face changed and he stepped on the ground with great strength. His body turned 360 degrees like a spinning top and suddenly avoided the green light.

“What’s going on? The Golden Calabash was once used by the Golden Saint, so how could it lose to that green light?” Qingfeng Li frowned and was confused.

Qingfeng Li thought for a second. Although the Golden Calabash was very powerful, it was just a spirit king level tool. However, the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate in Xiao Gui’s hand was a sixth level Emperor Level treasure which was very powerful. It was one level higher than Qingfeng Li’s calabash.

If it was any spirit king level tool, it would have been destroyed by the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate already, but thankfully, the golden calabash wasn’t. It was a king level tool that had been used by a saint, and thus it survived after the attack.

Strictly speaking, the golden calabash in Qingfeng Li’s hands was already very powerful. It was a king level tool and could contend against with emperor level tools, and that was not something that every tool could do.

Chapter 1412: Third Roar – Tornado

 

Qingfeng Li put the Golden calabash into his interspatial ring, because he knew that this treasure was temporarily not usable and he needed to improve its level so that he would be more powerful.

“Qingfeng Li, the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate in my hand is a sixth-level emperor-tier treasure. You are not my opponent at all.” Xiao Gui arrogantly looked at Qingfeng Li with the white plate in his hand.

Xiao Gui channeled the vital essence in his body into the white plate again. His hand suddenly smacked the back side of the white plate, causing the symbols to emit a bolt of green lights from the lotus, shooting towards Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng continued to step across the field, using his Dragon Steps technique as his body moved all over the places like a flying butterfly, avoiding the attacks of these green lights.

These green lights were not normal lights, but were formed from natural law talisman script and were very powerful. Every time it shot out, it would create a big hole in the sky.

Qingfeng’s speed was fast, but the green light coming from the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate was much faster. Every time it hit Qingfeng Li’s body, it created a big hole in his clothes.

When the green light came into contact with Qingfeng’s skin, it would also leave him a wound.

Although Qingfeng Li practiced the Mortal Purgatory Body and his body was as tough as diamonds, the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate was too powerful and he couldn’t defend against it for a long time.

“Lion Roar, second roar – Shattering Heavens and Earth.” Qingfeng Li opened his mouth and directly used the second roar of the Lion Roar technique. He wanted to use spiritual attack to defeat Xiao Gui.

Two sonic lions formed and shot out from Qingfeng’s mouth, rushing towards Xiao Gui.

The look of Xiao Gui’s face changed. He saw with his own eyes how the two sound wave lions attacked the first and second elders and ripped apart their spirits.

There were also spiritual treasures on Xiao Gui’s body. As the sect master of the Ghost Emperor Sect and also the lord of an intermediate-tier Emperor-level sect, he was not only powerful, but also procured a lot of treasures across Huaxia.

Xiao Gui directly took out a bell from his interspatial ring.

This was a black bell, which he threw forward. It immediately grew into a huge bell, more than three metres long, and blocked in front of Xiao Gui.

The two golden spiritual lions rushed to the top of the black bell, but were directly rebounded back.

Qingfeng Li frowned and looked surprised. He never imagined that his powerful sound wave lion attack would be rebounded by the other’s black bell. That black bell was so strange and powerful.

Qingfeng Li took a closer look and discovered that this black bell was a defensive spiritual treasure. It was at least at the fifth level of the emperor-tier and it might even be at the sixth level.

Qingfeng Li would never be willing to admit defeat, and he released the spiritual force in his mind again to form a spiritual sound wave lion attack towards the black bell. But every time he tried, the attacks would be rebounded by the black bell.

His sonic lion seemed to be meeting some counter since it could not break the defense of the other side.

Xiao Gui looked at Qingfeng Li and said coldly, “Qingfeng Li, do you really think that you are unrivaled? I am the sect master of an intermediate emperor level sect with a lot of treasures. If you are so powerful, defeat them!”

“Sixth Fist – Breaking the Void.” Qingfeng Li activated his Mortal Purgatory Body, causing his whole body to start to emitting a golden light. His skin, muscle, and bones starting to emit a golden aura.

Qingfeng Li waved his fist and a giant fist appeared in the space behind Xiao Gui, avoiding the black bell and attacking Xiao Gui from the back.

Xiao Gui didn’t care at all and waved the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate on his hand, smacking the back of it and shooting out another green light. It clashed with the Strangle Hell Fist, making a loud noise.

The surroundings were blown up but Xiao Gui was still there, standing peacefully and looking at Qingfeng Li with coldness.

“Qingfeng Li, don’t waste your strength, you can never defeat me. No matter physically or spiritually, I have stronger weapons.” Xiao Gui played with the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate in his hand and said arrogantly.

Qingfeng Li sneered and scorned. He heart moved as he was about to unleash the Golden Flames.

Qingfeng Li knew that if he directly used the Golden Flames, he would be able to defeat Xiao Gui.

However, right as Qingfeng Li decided to use the flames, Dark Night Emperor came out from his sword to stop him.

Dark Night Emperor sent his voice to Qingfeng Li, “Little brat, don’t use the golden flame temporarily. That is your biggest weapon and should only be used when it is a matter of life or death. This Xiao Gui now can be used to practice your spiritual force and combat ability.”

Qingfeng Li frowned and transmitted his voice to Dark Night Emperor, “Predecessor, neither my spiritual attack nor my physical abiltiies can defeat Xiao Gui. How do I improve my strength?”

Dark Night Emperor smiled and said, “Did you forget that your spiritual lion roar has nine roars? Right now, you had just learned the second roar, so you are definitely not his opponent. If you master the third, you will be able to defeat him.”

Hearing the thoughts of Dark Night Emperor, Qingfeng Li realized that he almost forgot that when he got the spiritual lion roar, it stated that there were nine roars.

When the nine roars were all mastered, he would be able to tear apart the sky and ground with a single attack. But, he could only use the second roar right now.

Qingfeng Li immediately searched his head for the method of practicing the spiritual lion roar and started to practice the third roar once he found it

In the depths of Qingfeng Li’s mind, there was a golden lion forming slowly.

The brain of a human being was the most secret place of the bodys and also the most abstruse place which contains millions of brain cells, nerve endings, nerve routes and blood vessels and so on.

The essence of the spiritual lion roar was to form spiritual lions with spiritual energy. The roar of the lions was the most powerful among all animals and could tear up another’s spirit.

The spiritual force in Qingfeng Li’s head started to come together through his blood vessel, but the speed was slow, like a running creek. It first formed the tail of a spiritual lion and then the feet, the hand, the waist, the head, and then the complete spiritual lion. Next the second lion and the third.

Qingfeng Li created three golden spiritual lions until the spiritual river in his mind stopped slowly.

The three spiritual lions were the sign of the third roar of the technique – Tornado.

Chapter 1413: Beating Xiao Gui

 

Within the next few moments, Qingfeng Li mastered the third roar of the Lion Roar Techniques – Tornado.

In Qingfeng Li’s mind, spiritual energy congealed rapidly and the third golden lion formed, emitting golden lights that could blind the whole world.

Qingfeng Li now felt that he was powerful enough to not need to fear Xiao Gui any more.

Xiao Gui didn’t know that Qingfeng Li had already learned the next stage of the Lion Roar technique, so he was still proudly smirking to himself behind the black bell, bragging about how powerful his black bell was and how it could nullify Qingfeng Li’s spiritual attacks.

Qingfeng Li sneered and said, “Xiao Gui, do you really think that I can’t break your black bell?”

Xiao Gui laughed and said with disdain, “Qingfeng Li, my black bell is a spiritual device on the sixth level of the emperor-tier. If you are so powerful, try to break it.”

Qingfeng Li smiled coldly, his eyes squinting. “This Xiao Gui is really not afraid of death. He really thinks that his black bell is undefeatable.”

“Third Roar – Tornado.” Qingfeng Li shouted, using the third roar immediately.

Qingfeng Li’s mouth suddenly opened and a spiritual tornado began forming inside, containing three spiritual lions.

Three spiritual lions were rolling in the wind and formed three golden tornados that spanned the top of the sky to the ground, and rushed towards the black bell of Xiao Gui.

Roar!

Three golden sound wave lions formed very powerful tornados. Everywhere it went, the ground was ruptured and the dimension was broken. Sand and stones were sent flying all around, while rocks, trees, and soil were flung up into the sky, as the tornadoes tore up the black bell with a strong force.

From the top of the black bell, a ‘ding’ was emitted and then a crack appeared. This was because of the tornado formed by the spiritual sound wave attack. It was obvious how powerful the third roar was.

Crack! Crack! Crack!

More and more fissures appeared on the black bell. From one crack in the beginning to two, three, and four.

Then so many cracks and fissures spread across the bell that it immediately broke into small pieces and crumbled.

Every self-cultivator that saw this scene was shocked.

That spirit bell was a sixth level emperor-tier treasure, how could it be destroyed by Qingfeng Li so easily? Qingfeng Li’s spiritual attack is too powerful!

Among all, the most shocked was Xiao Gui. Everyone else might not know how powerful this black bell was, but he was very clear.

This black bell had been very famous in the ancient era. It was a treasure at the emperor-level and was used by a saint, but later it had been lost on some mountain. It was found by Xiao Gui, who subsequently learned how to use it.

With the black bell and the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate in his hand, Xiao Gui was able to roam freely across the self-cultivation world and become well known among all the cultivators.

“Qingfeng Li, what kind of spiritual attack did you use? How did it break my black bell?” Xiao Gui was so shocked that he asked Qingfeng Li.

Qingfeng Li opened his mouth, wanting to explain to Xiao Gui, but later, on he waved his hand and said, “Why would I tell you?”

Upon hearing what Qingfeng Li said, Xiao Gui became so angry. He wanted to take a look at what kind of spiritual attack Qingfeng was using, but he didn’t expect to receive a mocking reply.

“Qingfeng Li, don’t be so full of yourself. Although your spiritual attack is powerful, the Lotus Emperor Spirit Plate is also very powerful. You will never be able to break it,” Xiao Gui scornfully shot back.

Qingfeng Li smiled, not caring at all. He opened his mouth and used the third roar again.

Third Roar – Tornado formed three golden sonic lions, like three tornados in the sky, and rushed towards Xiao Gui.

The look on Xiao Gui’s face changed and he immediately channeled his spiritual force and formed a spiritual defence shroud on the surface of his body, trying to defend himself from the tornado.

But Xiao Gui had underestimated the Third Roar – Tornado. This was the spiritual lion roar just learned by Qingfeng Li and was very powerful, with enormous strength.

The tornado formed by the spiritual lions was like a real tornado. Everywhere it went, everything around was thrown into the air and torn into pieces. It directly rushed into the head of Xiao Gui and teared the depths of his soul into pieces.

Xiao Gui opened his mouth and made a miserable cry. Blood shot out from his mouth and his spiritual force was harmed.

A cold light flashed through Qingfeng Li’s eyes. Naturally, he wouldn’t let this chance go. Since Xiao Gui was harmed and was shouting miserably, he launched himself off the ground with great force, sending his body flying up into the sky like a bolt of black lightning and charging down to the side of Xiao Gui’s body.

Qingfeng Li punched out a Strangle Hell Fist as his body emitted a shining gold light, lighting up for the whole forest to see. The golden fist hit the body of Xiao Gui, directly sending him flying away.

Crack! Crack!

A few of Xiao Gui’s ribs were broken. He opened his mouth and spat out a huge glob of blood and his body flew out and hit a tree with great force. He broke those trees and his body fell on the ground with dust covering him, looking miserable.

“What? Xiao Gui was defeated? How could that be possible? Xiao Gui is the master of the Ghost Emperor Sect.”

“Xiao Gui is a fifth level master of the Spirit Emperor Realm. He is at least five levels higher than Qingfeng Li. Why wouldn’t he be able to defeat Qingfeng?”

“Did you see how powerful Qingfeng Li’s spiritual power was? Everywhere the tornado went, the air and space was all been torn up, not to mention Xiao Gui.”

“Qingfeng Li is a demon. We are really all f*cked. Our sect master has been seriously injured too, looks like we won’t be able to get away either now.”

The self-cultivators around were all discussing, all shocked by this scene, especially those disciples of the Ghost Emperor Sect. They all looked as if their parents had died or something, completely heartbroken.

Just before now, the three elders of the Ghost Emperor Sect had been killed by Qingfeng Li easily. Now, even the sect master of the Ghost Emperor Sect had been seriously injured by Qingfeng Li. He started to spit blood as he fell onto the ground. He would be killed by Qingfeng Li any time now.

These disciples of the Ghost Emperor Sect all had a feeling that their ending will be death. Perhaps after the death of Xiao Gui, they would all be killed as well. But everyone had only one life and they didn’t want to die. Some had been prepared to run away.

Qingfeng Li would never let go of any of the Ghost Emperor Sect’s people. He held the Fire Emperor Sword in his hand and hacked forward, created a flame river.

The flame river contained red sword energy and rolling scorching magma. It immediately killed those followers of the Ghost Emperor Sect and burned them into nothingness.

Noticing Qingfeng Li’s sword technique being so powerful, all the other disciples in the Ghost Emperor Sect were all so afraid and weren’t brave enough to run away anymore. They all kneeled down and begged Qingfeng Li, asking him not to kill them.

Chapter 1414: Stopped by Old Monster Lishui

 

Qingfeng Li saw that the Ghost Emperor Sect disciples had suddenly kneeled in front of him and began begging him for forgiveness. He wasn’t feeling sorry at all. In fact, there were chilling lights flashing in his eyes.

The followers of the Ghost Emperor Sect were not good people. Before, these men used to bully the followers of other orthodox sects and kill those disciples. They also robbed the women from other sects just because they were superior in strength.

“Towards scoundrels and enemies, I won’t show any mercy,” Qingfeng Li sneered and said.

After saying this, Qingfeng Li swung the Fire Emperor Sword in his hand and smashed forward, creating an arch in the air and forming a red flame sword aura.

The red flame sword power was very powerful and created a circle pattern in the air, cutting through the necks of every follower of the Ghost Emperor Sect, slicing apart their jungular veins. The blood splashing out dyed the ground red.

Their bodies fell to the ground and their eyes closed. In a short period of time, they had all lost their breaths.

Those around, seeing the followers of the Ghost Emperor Sect dying, were all clapping and admiring Qingfeng Li’s behavior.

Because not long ago, these practicers suffered a lot from the bullying of the Ghost Emperor Sect. Many of the wives and daughters of these practicers were also bullied by these followers. But they didn’t have the ability of getting revenge for them, so they could only stifle their unsatisfaction. Now that Qingfeng Li had avenged them, they were all very glad.

At this moment, the status of Qingfeng Li in the hearts of these self-cultivators was increasing, becoming the representation of justice.

“Qingfeng Li, you demon! You bastard, you bastard! How dare you kill all of my men.” Xiao Gui looked at Qingfeng Li with rage and coldness in his eyes.

But now that Xiao Gui was seriously injured, he couldn’t even stand, lying on the ground and unable to take care of himself any more. There was no way that he could go and save his disciples.

Qingfeng Li sneered and walked to the side of Xiao Gui, reaching out his right feet, stepping onto his chest, and breaking the rest of his ribs.

Qingfeng Li looked at Xiao Gui from above and said coldly, “Xiao Gui, were you trying to kill me?”

Listening to what Qingfeng Li said, the look on Xiao Gui’s face changed and he started to look grim. He was being very arrogant and domineering just now because he thought he would be able to kill Qingfeng.

But Xiao Gui never imagined that Qingfeng was so powerful, or to say that Qingfeng Li’s spiritual force was too strong.

Qingfeng Li, in a few seconds, improved his spiritual power and even learned the third skill of the Lion Roar Technique, which directly broke the black bell and defeated Xiao Gui.

Xiao Gui noticed that Qingfeng Li was not alone. There must be other powerful men behind him or he wouldn’t be able to learn the spiritual technique as powerful as the Tornado.

One must know that even Xiao Gui, as the sect master of the Ghost Emperor Sect, was not able to practice Third Roar – Tornado because he didn’t have enough experience. Even if he continuously searched for treasures in Huaxia, he will never find any spiritual attacks as powerful as this one.

Qingfeng Li reached out his hand and slapped Xiao Gui’s face, which made his face red and swollen like a bun, looking very miserable and terrible.

Everyone around who saw this scene were all shocked and opened their mouths.

“That Xiao Gui’s face was smashed by Qingfeng Li!”

“That’s because Xiao Gui was not as powerful as Qingfeng! He is still arrogant now, but not only are his ribs broken, even his face is lost.”

“I will swear that from now on, the status of Qingfeng Li in our world will increase rapidly, ultimately becoming a top tier force all by himself.”

Everyone around were all discussing, looking at Qingfeng Li with admiration and worship.

Some of these admired Qingfeng Li’s ability, hoping that they themselves would become as powerful as Qingfeng Li so that they could do whatever they wanted to their enemies.

Of course, many worshipped Qingfeng Li because he was so young, only about twenty years old and could already reach such status in their world. If he was given a bit more time, it was very possible for him to become the number on in the entire world of cultivation.

“Qingfeng Li, how dare you hit my face. If I am not dying today, I will tear you into pieces.” Xiao Gui was so embarassed today that he continued threatening Qingfeng Li.

Xiao Gui swore that if he would be able to survive today, he will give up everything just to kill Qingfeng Li. That would be the only way for him to be happy again.

Qingfeng Li sneered and said, “This is for Linger Yao. If you were not chasing Linger Yao, I wouldn’t have done this to you.”

Linger Yao, who was still beside him, heard what Qingfeng Li said and was moved. She never thought that everything Qingfeng Li did was for her.

The look on Linger Yao’s face was complicated. She looked at Qingfeng Li with glamor. She knew that from now on, this man would leave an image in her mind that she would never forget.

“Xiao Gui, do you still have anything to say? If not, I will send you to hell.” Qingfeng Li took out the Fire Emperor Sword, placed it onto Xiao Gui’s neck and said.

Xiao Gui looked scared. Though he was the sect master of the Ghost Emperor sect, he was afraid of death. He knew that even though he begged, Qingfeng Li wouldn’t let him go any way. So he was tough and just looked at Qingfeng Li with viciousness.

Qingfeng Li channeled his fire vital essence into the Fire Emperor Sword and was about to decapitate Xiao Gui.

At that moment, an old voice rang out from the sky.

“Qingfeng Li, please let Xiao Gui go.” An old but loud voice echoed from the further side of the sky.

Qingfeng Li looked up and saw an old man flying on top of a water bridge, quickly arriving on the top of his head.

This old man was standing on a bridge formed from water that was floating in the sky.

Qingfeng Li naturally knew this old man. His name was Old Monster Lishui. He was a very powerful predecessor, someone undefeatable by any normal cultivator.

Rumors said that Old Monster Lishui had arrived at the eight level of the Spirit Emperor Realm, almost at the same level as Qixuan Zhenren.

Although Old Monster Lishui was very powerful, Qingfeng Li didn’t plan to respect him because Xiao Gui, the sect master of Ghost Emperor Sect, had to die.

Qingfeng Li swung the long sword in his hand and smashed down, trying to cut off the head of Xiao Gui.

But Qingfeng Li realized that he could not move his long sword. This was not good. His body couldn’t move as well. He was stuck there.

Chapter 1415: Someone Saved Xiao Gui

 

Qingfeng Li’s whole body couldn’t move, only barely being able to move his eyes. He looked towards the top of his head and realized that it was Old Monster Lishui in the sky that had froze his body.

A green light was emitting from his hand and landing on Qingfeng Li’s body, which was fixing him in place.

“Old Monster Lishui, you are an ancestor figure of our world. Since two hundred years ago, you had become one of the most powerful in Huaxia. Why would you help the Sect Master of the Ghost Emperor Sect?” Qingfeng Li looked at the Old Monster who was floating on top of his head and started to question him.

Old Monster Lishui smiled and said, “You are not qualified to question me. I just asked you to let Xiao Gui go, why didn’t you let him go?”

Qingfeng Li frowned and said, “Xiao Gui is my enemy. Naturally, I need to kill him.”

“Qingfeng Li, since you said this, I will tell you. Xiao Gui is the son of a former friend of mine. Naturally, I will protect him,” Old Monster Lishui looked at Qingfeng Li and said coldly, with impatience in his voice.

One must know that Old Monster Lishui was very famous in this world as the top of the ancient monsters.

In the cultivation world 200 years ago, everyone knew Old Monster Lishui. Even now, every one would still show respect to him, and even Qixuan Zhenren would show respect to Old Monster Lishui when he saw him.

But now, Qingfeng Li was not showing any respect at all, trying to kill Xiao Gui in front of him.

Linger Yao stood up at this time and said, “Senior Old Monster Lishui, please let Qingfeng Li go, he was just trying to save me.”

Old Monster Lishui was even more angry after hearing Linger Yao begging for Qingfeng Li.

“Linger Yao, you are from the Demonic Dao, and I’ve never liked you people. Not to mention Xiao Gui, even I want to kill you, too,” Old Monster Lishui looked at Linger Yao and said coldly, murderous intent overflowing in his voice.

Hearing what Old Monster Lishui said, the look on Linger Yao’s and Qingfeng Li’s faces changed. They knew now that Old Monster Lishui was looking at them as opponents, he even wanted to kill them.

Qingfeng Li could only speak and move his eyes. His whole body couldn’t move, because Old Monster Lishui emitted such powerful pressure. That was the pressure of an eight level Spirit Empero, eight levels higher than Qingfeng Li’s level. Thus, Qingfeng could not resist at all.

Xiao Gui at this time stood up from the ground with his mouth bleeding, yet a hint of fervor and madness appeared in his eyes.

“Senior Old Monster Lishui, you have to avenge me. This Qingfeng Li is a demon, killing the three elders and all the disciples of the Ghost Emperor Sect,” Xiao Gui bowed to Old Monster Lishui with respect and pleaded.

Though Xiao Gui was very famous and powerful, when he was facing the old monster who had lived for hundreds of years, he was like a student meeting his teacher, being very respectful.

Old Monster Lishui nodded and looked at Qingfeng Li below him and said, “Qingfeng Li, your desire to kill is too much. I will send you to hell today.”

Feeling the murderous intent exuding from Old Monster Lishui’s body, Qingfeng Li’s look changed. He wanted to resist but he couldn’t move his body even though he wanted to attack back.

Old Monster Lishui was standing on the water bridge in the sky. He reached out his right hand and stretched forcefully downward, conjuring a water sword that stabbed down at Qingfeng.

This water sword was so powerful that it stabbed through the air and left a crack in the dimension. It immediately arrived on top of Qingfeng Li immediately.

At the most serious moment, Linger Yao’s body suddenly crashed into Qingfeng’s body.

Puchi!

Upon hearing that sound, the water sword stabbed onto Linger Yao’s body and left a huge hole, letting blood splash out.

“Linger Yao!” The look on Qingfeng Li’s face changed and he let out a crazy shout, because he saw Linger Yao had been stabbed by the water sword and that she could not stop bleeding.

Linger Yao had just been healed by Qingfeng Li and hadn’t recovered yet. But now, she had sacrificed herself, even though she couldn’t bear the attack. Her head tilted to the side and she lost her consciousness.

If it was any other self-cultivator, their bodies would’ve exploded without any remains, but Linger Yao was quite powerful and thus could resist the water sword.

Old Monster Lishui stood on the water bridge in the sky and frowned. “Qingfeng Li, I never thought that woman would treat you so nicely, even protecting you from my attack.”

Qingfeng Li’s eyes were filled with a crazy intention to kill. He never wanted to kill someone as much as this before and he swore that he would kill this Old Monster Lishui if he had any chance.

“Old Monster Lishui, you are more than two hundred years old. It is okay for you to bully me because you had practiced for a longer time. But you are even bullying Linger Yao, a woman! How shameful!” Qingfeng Li knew that Old Monster Lishui wouldn’t let him go so he started shouting at him.

Old Monster Lishui’s face became cold and said, “Qingfeng Li, how dare you insult me? I have decided. I won’t kill you easily. I will break you into pieces and break all of your arms and legs.”

“Hahaha, Old Monster Lishui, I would never be afraid of you. Come at me if you are so powerful.” Qingfeng Li looked at the Old Monster Lishui floating above his head and said arrogantly.

Qingfeng Li was never afraid of death at all. He had experienced so much and walked at the margin of life and death. He would never show fear to any of his opponents, even if they were powerhouses like Old Monster Lishui.

The intention to kill appeared in Old Monster Lishui’s eyes and he waved his hand to channel the water vital essence in his body. Then, he slapped downwards, creating a white vital essence hand that smashed towards Qingfeng’s body.

At the crucial moment, a black round ball flew in from the distance.

The black ball was fast like a bolt of black lightning, and it immediately hit the white vital essence hand and made a huge sound. The white vital essence hand and the black round ball exploded in the air, dissipating the water and ultimately disappearing.

“Black Fire Grenade. That was Black Fire Grenade! Who is there?” Old Monster Lishui looked at the Black Fire Grenade that unexpectedly hindered him and said with rage.

Old Monster Lishui was a peerless elite 200 years ago and was a very powerful self-cultivator of eighth level in Spirit Emperor Realm.

Everyone would be too afraid to meet him in person and would undoubtedly show respect to him. Even the sect master of the Ghost Emperor Sect looked like a kid in front of him.

But now, someone actually took out a Black Fire Grenade, something so violent, to sneak attack Old Monster Lishui!
