Chapter 1351: Who Else if Not You, Trash?
Flux Finger Sword Technique!
Not even a Saint could survive such a powerful sword finger. Gu Ming was instantly beheaded. A ma.s.sive commotion erupted among the crowd.
“Gu Ming was killed! That’s a second-stage Heaven Battling Realm!”
“He just broke through and was killed before he could even enjoy life as a Saint. Who’s the one who killed him? That person is truly incredible.”
“Since that person is Devil Concubine’s sweetheart, who else can he be apart from Xiang Shaoyun, the Devil Hunting Expedition champion? That fellow can slay Saints without being a Saint himself. What a monster.”
“You’re right. Look at him. He probably hasn’t even used his full strength. If he fights seriously, who can be his match? Remember to never provoke a monster like him.”
…
The moment Gu Ming was killed, the Gu Society Saint roared, “Kid, I’ll personally end your life. n.o.body can save you!”
Hidden Rat was no match for Gu Ming, a fifth-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator. Just as Hidden Rat was about to suffer defeat, Devil Concubine said, “Those from the Gu Society, scram! Otherwise, I’ll have all of you killed!”
As she said that, a powerful aura appeared out of nowhere and hovered above the Gu Clan Saint. He s.h.i.+vered and exclaimed in shock, “Great Saint!”
Devil Concubine was born with a Yin Yang Physique, a physique no weaker than the Primal Chaos Physique. Thus, she naturally had her own guardian protecting her.
“Miss Devil Concubine, he killed someone from our society. Are you really going to side with him?” asked the Saint in an unresigned manner.
“He’s my man. Who else am I going to side with if not him?” said Devil Concubine coldly. “Also, Gu Ming was the one who started the fight. So what if he was killed? Scram!”
She was an incredibly imposing woman. As she spoke, the surrounding men looked at Xiang Shaoyun with envy and hatred. Yu Caidie felt extremely unhappy as she felt that she instead should be the one standing by Xiang Shaoyun’s side.
Looks like I need to stop keeping a low profile, thought Yu Caidie.
In her previous life, she was Overlord’s sole woman. In this life, he no longer belonged to her alone, which gave her a sense of crisis.
The Gu Society Saint had no choice but to leave with indignation.
With the Darkdevil Sect taking part in the conflict, he held no advantage. If he stayed, he would only be asking for more humiliation. Xiang Shaoyun wasn’t bothered that the Saint was leaving. He couldn’t care less about them.
He had thought that he would gain some peace after killing Gu Ming, but he still had plenty of enemies waiting to create trouble for him. At this time, Di Mie, Di Lin, and a group of people started heading toward him.
When Xiang Shaoyun saw them, thick killing intent flickered in his eyes. The Saints from both the Di Clan and the Yu Clan had shown themselves as well. Di Ganning, Di Chuan, Yu Huayan, and Yu Youcheng were all here. Their appearance caused the surrounding onlookers to be astonished. They all guessed that something unexpected was about to happen next.
“Di Mie, Xiang Shaoyun, are you willing to fight for Yu Caidie? This fight will decide who her partner will ultimately be,” said Yu Huayan.
She was beautiful and imposing, akin to the most majestic of queens. Anyone would be stunned by her beauty, and n.o.body would dare to approach her for fear of blaspheming her beauty.
Before Di Mie and Xiang Shaoyun could say anything, Yu Caidie said coldly, “I won’t change my mind. Dead or alive, I only belong to the overlord. Don’t bother wasting any time on me.”
“Yu Caidie, are you going to disobey the patriarch?” questioned Yu Youcheng.
“Think whatever you want. I’ve clearly stated what I want. If any of you didn’t hear it the first time, I’ll repeat myself,” said Yu Caidie unyieldingly.
Xiang Shaoyun was gratified. Finally, he was able to feel her feelings for him.
“Huayan, you deal with this. Don’t ruin the plan that both our clans have agreed on,” said Yu Youcheng. He had no choice but to let Yu Huayan handle this.
“Caidie, do you want me to kill him right now?” asked Yu Huayan as she looked at Xiang Shaoyun with a threatening gaze.
Her words. .h.i.t Yu Caidie’s sore spot. No matter how strong Xiang Shaoyun was, he still wasn’t Yu Huayan’s match for now.
“Say that after you gain the ability to kill me. Caidie is my woman. Don’t even dream of taking advantage of her,” said Xiang Shaoyun. He looked at Di Mie and said, “If you insist on having that trash fight me, I won’t mind burning him alive as well.”
Di Mie was furious. “Who are you calling trash?”
“Who else if not you, trash?” said Xiang Shaoyun with contempt.
“Hehe, some trash that isn’t even a Heaven Battling Realm cultivator still dares to call a third-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator like me trash? Interesting,” Di Mie sneered. He unleashed the aura of a third-stage Heaven Battling Realm cultivator, creating a storm around him that shocked everyone present.
Of the 1,000 cultivators who had entered the Saintforce Realm, some had been stuck as peak Sovereigns for a long time, and some had newly become peak Sovereigns. Everyone had advanced, but everyone’s progress was different. Most of them had only reached first-stage Heaven Battling Realm. Very few had managed to reach second-stage Heaven Battling Realm, and they were the ones with thick foundations allowing them to perform the incredible feat of advancing two stages.
After all, each advancement in the Heaven Battling Realm would require a much larger acc.u.mulation of strength. Even fewer had managed to advance by three stages like Di Mie. When Di Mie revealed his new cultivation level, the surrounding people looked at him in a new light.
“You’re so proud just because you’ve reached third-stage Heaven Battling Realm? As someone who had once killed even Great Saints, should I be even prouder?” asked Xiang Shaoyun with a look of ridicule in his eyes.
“Haha, are you not ashamed of your bluff? With your strength, do you think you can kill Great Saints? Why don’t you tell us that you had once killed G.o.ds instead?” said Di Mie as he roared with laughter.
“If we look further back in time, you’re right. I did kill even G.o.ds before,” said Xiang Shaoyun after giving it some thought.
“Looks like you’re the kind to boast endlessly. Let this prince teach you a lesson to never lie,” said Di Mie. Just as he was about to attack, Di Lin said, “Prince, facing a devil like this, we should let the ma.s.ses deal with him instead. There is no need to give him a fair duel.”
When Di Lin said that, Xiang Shaoyun’s eyes twitched as a bad premonition rose within him.
