Chapter 1321: Chapter 705: Instant Kill (Part 2)

But this was already the limit of Zhang Qingcang’s capabilities; it was unrealistic to expect him to fight against so many Purple Mansion Cultivators by himself.

The remaining Purple Mansion Cultivators charged into the lake, attacking the Da Li Dragon Vein, intending to sever it completely.

"Director."

"Bastards!"

Upon seeing the scene unfold, Qin Yushang and Wei Yushuang joined the battle without hesitation, hoping to assist Zhang Qingcang and prevent the destruction of the Da Li Dragon Vein.

"More fools coming to die."

Li Daozhong noticed Wei Yushuang’s presence but remained unfazed, as they had the numerical advantage.

Tiancan Taoist Qi Yin sneered coldly as he faced Zhang Qingcang, a sinister expression on his face, "Leave those little girls for me; female Purple Mansion Cultivators are a rare tonic."

Undying Mad Saber Xu Tianyi aimed his strikes directly at Zhang Qingcang’s vital points and said deeply, "Let’s take down this guy together first; his strength is not simple."

Earth Demon True Monarch Fu Yunhan’s face was fierce as he twisted his neck, saying, "Alright, let’s kill this old bastard first, then crush the remaining ants."

Boom!

Just as Fu Yunhan’s words ended, Qin Yushang launched a punch, causing the ground to shake, trying to relieve the pressure on Zhang Qingcang.

Seeing this, Qi Yin held a black Soul-devouring Lamp, a top-grade Spiritual Treasure, aimed at Qin Yushang. Instantly, Qin Yushang trembled all over, her Yang God fiercely disturbed, with her Three Souls and Seven Spirits nearly extracted.

"Hah!"

Wei Yushuang stood in front of Qin Yushang, her Mystic Dragon Heavy Sword radiating Sword Qi, severing the light from the Soul-devouring Lamp.

However, Fu Yunhan unexpectedly appeared before the two, both hands open, ready to grab their skulls.

At the critical moment, Zhang Qingcang broke free from others’ entanglements, a Seven-Star Divine Whip in his hand flashing like lightning, pulling Qin Yushang and Wei Yushuang behind him.

"Fall back."

Zhang Qingcang’s tone was solemn. In the face of late-stage Purple Mansion Cultivators like Qi Yin, Xu Tianyi, and Fu Yunhan, Qin Yushang and Wei Yushuang were still too inexperienced. It’s not that they weren’t strong enough, but their opponents’ abilities exceeded what they could contend with. A slight mistake could lead to death and soul destruction.

Panting heavily, Wei Yushuang faced the Exotic Realm Cultivators, each practically of late-stage Purple Mansion level, feeling an overpowering helplessness. It involuntarily reminded her of her previous encounter with Su Jie.

This must be what it looks like when that guy goes all out. Just one move nearly brought them to defeat.

Thinking this, Wei Yushuang realized that Su Jie was on par with these Exotic Realm cultivators in strength.

Elsewhere, Ning Xinyue shielded Su Jie, peeking from behind him, her little head darting back and forth, searching for spoils of war.

However, there was no legendary treasure of Emperor Tianwu on site, nor any sign of the Dao Treasure Ten Thousand Dragon Pearl, greatly disappointing Ning Xinyue.

"What’s going on, how could there be nothing?"

Ning Xinyue was speechless, thinking that the intense fight had to be over some earth-shattering treasure.

Su Jie remained silent, his eyes intently watching the lake, initially making Ning Xinyue believe he was observing the Dragon Vein, only to realize that wasn’t the case.

"Got something good?"

Ning Xinyue’s eyes lit up, rubbing her hands eagerly.

"Something is hidden within the Dragon Vein; it could be the legendary Dao Treasure Ten Thousand Dragon Pearl."

Su Jie nodded, not participating in the chaotic battle, but heading towards the lake instead.

"It’s you!"

Li Daozhong, upon seeing Su Jie, narrowed his eyes, then laughed loudly, "You’re courting death, revenge will be had today, and I’ll flay you and draw your tendons for sure."

Su Jie turned his head towards the other, puzzled, "Who are you?"

Li Daozhong’s mouth twitched, shouting angrily, "I am from the Lianzhou Li Family, one of the Five Great Families. Blood Demon Ancestor, you massacred the Qingzhou Cui Family and gravely harmed our family forces, taking this opportunity today, you’ll be forever left here."

"Ghost Ridge Palace’s Su Jie, the Heavenly Destiny Person of the Da Li Dynasty, I’m curious about your capability."

Even amidst the battle, Qi Yin had the time to comment on Su Jie.

Among the Purple Mansion strongmen present, whether aristocratic family or Exotic Realm cultivators, none took Su Jie seriously due to their overwhelming numbers sufficient to suppress him.

Especially the Exotic Realm cultivators, although familiar with Su Jie’s name, they thought it was merely due to the Da Li Dynasty’s weakness that allowed such a demon cultivator to be so arrogant.

Among them, only Jiang Shuling’s face turned pale upon seeing Su Jie, quietly shuffling to the back of the crowd.

"Destroy him!"

Li Daozhong shouted icily, advancing on Su Jie with three Purple Mansion strongmen from the aristocratic families.

However, someone beat him to it—a two-meter-tall Exotic Realm cultivator, built like a bear, stepped in front of Su Jie.

"Are you Su Jie? I hail from Donghuang Continent, Earth Demon True Monarch Fu Yunhan. If you’re willing to lead Ghost Ridge Palace to submit to me, I’ll ensure your safety; otherwise, you won’t leave here alive today."

Fu Yunhan’s face was arrogant, intending to seize control of the Da Li Dynasty’s throne, necessitating a power base. Building it took time, and Ghost Ridge Palace, controlling the Southern Three Provinces, was a ready-made resource to save countless efforts.

Li Daozhong halted. Fu Yunhan was known as the top person below the Hollow on the Donghuang Continent, once defeating two same-level Purple Mansion cultivators at once. He saw no need to offend such a strongman.

Su Jie tilted his head, turning to Ning Xinyue next to him, asking, "Maid Ning, do I seem weak?"

Ning Xinyue chuckled, "This big brute must have bad eyesight; his brain’s probably all muscle."

Fu Yunhan:"..."

Su Jie nodded in satisfaction and said, "Did you hear that, you Exotic Continent scum? Now you have two choices: either kneel and be my dogs, or prepare to die."

Su Jie used their own words against them.

This sweeping declaration incited not just Fu Yunhan and Li Daozhong, but all Exotic Realm cultivators present, casting murderous glances towards Su Jie.

"Courting death."

Fu Yunhan was furious at Su Jie’s provocation. He resolved to kill Su Jie and then use his severed head to dominate Ghost Ridge Palace until no one dared oppose him further.

Yet before he could act, the air filled with roaring energy. A giant hand filled his vision; it was Su Jie’s preemptive strike.

Fu Yunhan, experienced in battle, although surprised by Su Jie’s sudden move, remained calm, countering with a punch and his Yang God out of body, lion hunting rabbit, at full strength, not underestimating the fight with Su Jie.

In a flash, amidst the sound of flesh and bone shattering.

Fu Yunhan’s fist and arm shattered like tofu under an electric drill; membranes, muscles, vessels, bone fragments sprayed everywhere, leaving the whole arm in ruins.

Next was Fu Yunhan’s out-of-body Yang God, a grotesque figure, smashed by Su Jie’s sun-like Fist Force before it could fully manifest power.

In the next moment, Su Jie’s large hand gripped Fu Yunhan’s head, his fingers squeezing so tightly that his skull creaked.

"Spare... BANG!!"

Fu Yunhan’s plea was cut short as Su Jie’s fingers clamped down forcefully, exploding Fu Yunhan’s head into a mess of red and white, splattering everywhere. The headless body swayed a few times before crashing down, its spirit absorbed into Su Jie’s Ten Thousand Soul Banner before any struggle.

Silence!

The surrounding area fell eerily silent, Li Daozhong covered in goosebumps, every Purple Mansion Cultivator present stared at Fu Yunhan’s headless corpse with dread creeping into their hearts.

"Instant... it was instant."

Wei Yushuang’s mouth dropped open, staring wide-eyed at Fu Yunhan’s corpse, rubbing her eyes in disbelief, wondering if she had fallen under an Illusion Technique.

She believed that Su Jie’s strength was comparable to the Exotic Purple Mansion Cultivators, which, in her mind, was sufficient proof of Su Jie’s prowess.

However, reality drastically altered her perception, nearly shattering her worldview.

Fu Yunhan was instantly killed by Su Jie, a level of power simply absurd.

Among those present, only Jiang Shuling was unsurprised, muttering to himself in a voice too quiet for others to hear, "This pervert, I knew it would be like this."
