“AGHHH!” A pain-filled, woeful cry sounded. It was from Shue Yong.
He was on the ground, writhing about. His left hand covered his crushed right hand.
Shue Yong’s face was quite pale. He started to break into a sweat. The pain was shown clearly on his face.
Even with the scream, Bai Chen did not turn to look. He spoke calmly.
“It’s better not to ask for trouble.”
Then, he continued to walk forward. He did not expect an old man to appear in front of him out of nowhere like a ghost.
It was obvious that he’d used the flash footwork technique of the sky soaring realm!
He was the old man Hao Kuang who’d just had a fight with Shue Yong.
He’d witnessed everything because it had not been far from where he was standing.
Bai Chen stopped walking. He looked Hao Kuang in the eye quite emotionlessly. He was also a sky soaring realm cultivator now, and there was no need to be scared of someone at the same level.
“What do you want?” Bai Chen asked. Of course, he could guess that what this old man was trying to do had to be related to Shue Yong.
And it was as expected. As soon as Shue Yong saw that Hao Kuang was there, he tried his best to suppress the pain.
He used his spirit qi to suppress the pain. He slowly stood up and screamed.
“Elder Hao Kuang, kill him! Kill him! He dared to destroy my hand!”
Shue Yong did not care about anything else at the moment but Bai Chen’s death. Otherwise, he would not call Hao Kuang an elder that loudly. It was greatly different from before.
Hao Kuang glanced at Shue Yong for a second and then turned his gaze back to Bai Chen. He frowned.
“He’s under my protection. You doing this isn’t much different from slapping me.”
Hao Kuang’s voice was calm, yet full of dissatisfaction.
How could he be satisfied when Shue Yong was under his care?
Crushing Shue Yong’s hand truly was not different from slapping the old man on the face.
Bai Chen was quite calm. “You should know that he attacked me first. You’d expected me to allow him to do that?”
Actually, Bai Chen did not want to cause a ruckus. However, if anyone picked a fight with him, he would not hesitate to counter.
“Young man, you dare to address me as ‘you’?” Hao Kuang’s only eye shone with danger. It was the same as when Shue Yong called him ‘you’.
“You dare to talk to me as an equal?” Hao Kuang’s voice started to turn cold. His killing aura emitted from his body. The pressure from a sky soaring realm cultivator lingered in the air.
If other cultivators were around, they would have been shaken with fear and forced to kneel.
Actually, Shue Yong and Bai Chen were here. However, Shue Yong was not affected by it. Apparently, Hao Kuang did not let it affect Shue Yong.
As for Bai Chen, he was not affected by it either. Hao Kuang did not intend for it to be that way. However, Bai Chen was at the level same him and that was why.
How could he be affected by Hao Kuang’s pressure?
“Heh?” Hao Kuang thought that emitting his killing aura and pressure would make Bai Chen kneel with fear. His facial expression would turn to one of shock.
He blinked and looked through Bai Chen’s level. He narrowed his still dangerous single eye.
“You’re only a tertiary formation cultivator, but you were able to crush an earth solid cultivator’s hand and withstand a sky soaring cultivator’s pressure. It seems like you’re better at defending yourself than I thought.”
“What?” Hearing that, Shue Yong cried out.
He was alarmed that Bai Chen was only at the tertiary formation level.
Then, his eyes shone with greed. Judging from what Hao Kuang said, Bai Chen must possess valuable defensive items.
How could he not want it? It could even withstand pressure from a sky soaring realm cultivator!
“Elder Hao Kuang, quick. Kill him and take his treasures!” Shue Yong screamed out with endless greed.
Hao Kuang’s face twisted when he heard that. He did not respond. He only looked at Bai Chen with his dangerous eye. He waited to see if Bai Chen had anything else up his sleeve.
For a small tertiary formation cultivator, even with high potential, he would be able to kill very easily since he was a sky soaring realm cultivator.
“You still want to ask for trouble.” Bai Chen shook his head and slowly swept his hand to the side.
Suddenly, silver spirit qi leapt behind him and slashed through Shue Yong’s neck!
Shue Yong’s head was cut off immediately and dropped onto the ground. There was not even a single drop of blood. Clearly, this was Bai Chen’s flawless attack.
“Heh?” Shue Yong was confused. He did not realise what had happened. It was shortly after that he finally realised when he saw his headless body standing there.
Fear stormed into his heart heavily. It was indescribable.
His lips moved as if he was about to say ‘no’. Yet, there was no sound from them. The spark of life in Shue Yong’s eyes started to grow dim and vanished. He died with his twisted face!
Shue Yong was the son of Zhang Hai city’s governor, a legendary realm cultivator. He should not have died so easily since he possessed a high-grade defensive item that his father had given to him.
It was unfortunate that Bai Chen’s attack was so fast that the item could not keep up.
