Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
A plunder?
The people of the Li Family were dumbfounded on the spot!
Xu Que’s words were echoing in their minds. However, what really terrified them was Xu Que’s strength!
The hurricane released by Li Tangshan had swamped Xu Que, but it hadn’t caused any real damage to Xu Que!
More important, n.o.body saw clearly how Xu Que blew off and seriously wounded Li Tangshan. This could only be realized by a powerhouse at the Form Synthesis Stage!
“Impossible, this is absolutely impossible! What did you do?” Li Tangshan asked, clenching his teeth as he stood up from the ground. He couldn’t believe that he had been crushed by Xu Que’s strength!
The young master of the Li Family was also shocked, but he came to himself soon and said in surprise, “It is said that his magic arts are quite powerful; they might even be the Celestial Arts! It seems the hearsay is true. However, he doesn’t have the Taoist Connotation, so he can’t kill cultivators at the Void Training Stage!”
“No Taoist Connotation?” Li Tangshan asked suspiciously.
Just now, Xu Que’s attack had been so fast that Li Tangshan hadn’t had time to sense Xu Que’s magic art, let alone to check his Taoist Connotation!
Faintly, Li Tangshan could sense a kind of mundane Taoist Connotation contained in Xu Que’s attack, which was insignificant and even negligible!
“Could it be a kind of delusion?” Li Tangshan frowned, and he took a pill to heal his wounds quickly.
At the same time, the young master of the Li Family also calmed down!
Since he remembered Xu Que had no Taoist Connotation, he had become more and more convinced that Xu Que was nothing to be afraid of.
“Second Uncle, don’t be terrified by him! He only has powerful magic arts but no Taoist Connotation! As long as you are careful enough, you could kill him with a minor wound!” the young master of the Li Family said unscrupulously!
Liu Jingning darkened her face and snorted, “People of the Li Family, are you so shameless?”
The young master of the Li Family smiled coldly, “Holy Virgin Liu, since you are still here, you should go to the Li Family with me after my Second Uncle kills Xu Que, so that we can hold our grand wedding ceremony!”
“Are you sure?” Liu Jingning smiled sarcastically, as if she was talking with an idiot!
She was quite sure that the Li Family, no matter how powerful it was, was just an ant compared to Xu Que!
“Of course! When you become my wife, your Faction Leader will never contract enmity with the Li Family!” the young master of the Li Family said maliciously.
Confidently, with a cold smile on his face, he said, “By the way, I want to tell you, a Silver Worm of Thread Shadow was hidden in the magic artifact your father borrowed from my Second Uncle! When your father used the magic artifact, the worm entered his body!”
“What?” Liu Jingning changed her expression, widening her eyes. Her body couldn’t help but tremble!
“Hah-hah, no wonder you are a Holy Virgin, you are as smart as expected. You managed to figure out the reason in such a short time! Exactly, my Second Uncle activated the worm in your father’s body, and the worm absorbed all his True Core Strength, which caused his death in the battle!” The young master of the Li Family laughed loudly.
Liu Jingning’s face was as pale as paper. Her beautiful eyes were full of sadness and fury!
She never expected that her father’s death was caused by a trick of others!
The young master’s eyes were full of greed. He said, staring at Liu Jingning, “Don’t be sad. After all, your father’s death activated that worm. Now we are here to propose a marriage to the Utopia Faction because we need your bloodline to nourish that worm, so that it can be perfected! However, before that happens, I won’t mind enjoying a bit of physical pleasure with you!”
“You are looking for death!” Liu Jingning yelled furiously, her eyes reddened from tears. Then, she dashed toward the young master of the Li Family and prepared to attack him with magic arts!
The young master of the Li Family shook his head and smiled coldly. “Holy Virgin Liu, it is really unnecessary to be so reckless! You can only defeat me and my younger sister in your next life!”
Whoos.h.!.+
After saying that, he took out his sword and pointed it at Liu Jingning, who was das.h.i.+ng directly toward him!
Meanwhile, the woman beside him also started to attack with magic arts without saying a word!
The young master of the Li Family believed Xu Que could be controlled by Li Tangshan, and he and the woman could defeat Liu Jingning easily.
However, just at this moment, a cold snort was suddenly heard!
“You are quite happy to bully others by fighting with more than one person, right?” Xu Que appeared behind the young master of the Li Family suddenly with a magnificent kill intent.
“Second Uncle!” the young master, who was totally scared, shouted for help immediately!
Li Tangshan dashed over and stopped Xu Que as he said seriously, “Xu Que, you should care about your safety now! Surrender the Ancient Ominous Spells, I will give you a quick death!”
“Li Tangshan, you are a sinister b.a.s.t.a.r.d! How dare you attack me after murdering my little sister’s father? OK, you can die first to make amends!” Xu Que attacked with his fists with a chilly kill intent in his eyes after saying that.
It was just an ordinary King of Tough-Acting Fist, which cost 1,000 Acting-Tough Points. However, it was enough to kill a powerhouse at the summit of the Void Training Stage!
Boom!
The void was shaken and distorted suddenly. A giant fist took form and smashed down toward Li Tangshan directly!
“This is…Taoist Connotation!” Li Tangshan changed his expression and screamed in terror.
At this moment, he could sense the magnificent Taoist Connotation contained in Xu Que’s punch at such a close range.
He had been living in the World of Cultivators for so many years, but he had never sensed such a magnificent and overbearing Taoist Connotation. Even the Taoist Connotation of the Li Family’s Patriarch was not so horrible!
“Retreat!”
Without any hesitation, Li Tangshan jumped up into the sky and tried to escape.
However, Xu Que’s punch was far more powerful than Li Tangshan’s imagination!
After taking form in the sky, the giant fist covered a large area almost like an enormous mountain.
Boom!
Like a fly that was. .h.i.t by an electric fly swatter, Li Tangshan was heavily smashed down to the ground by the giant fist after running for his life for dozens of meters!
“No.…”
The giant fist smashed down again. This time, Li Tangshan couldn’t go anywhere. After a reluctant and terrified cry, he was turned into a cloud of blood mist immediately!
All of a sudden, the entire area fell silent!
The young master and the woman beside him were totally dumbfounded. Their eyes were full of disbelief!
Their Second Uncle Li Tangshan, who was one of the most powerful cultivators of the Li Family, was killed by a young man with one punch!
“No…this is impossible! How could this be?” the young master of the Li Family shook his head and couldn’t accept the facts!
The woman beside him turned pale and uttered her first sentence, “The Form Synthesis Stage! Xu Que is at the Form Synthesis Stage!”
“OK, now two against two! This will be much fairer!”
As he said this, Xu Que stepped toward them slowly, standing beside Liu Jingning at last, as he stared at the young master of the Li Family coldly.
The young master of the Li Family came to himself. He s.h.i.+vered and stepped back hurriedly, saying in a trembling voice, “Don’t…don’t do anything reckless! I am the young master of the Li Family! You…you can’t kill me!”
“Dumba.s.s! You will die certainly! Could you say something else?” Xu Que shook his head impatiently as he attacked with his palm!
Swis.h.!.+
Suddenly, a sharp air-rending sound exploded in the air. A silver light dashed toward Xu Que at an extremely fast speed. The woman beside the young master of the Li Family attacked.
“Watch out!” Liu Jingning shouted loudly, her expression concentrated.
Xu Que waved his hand calmly and pointed his fingers in the air abruptly.
Boom!
The void in front of him was covered by a powerful Taoist Connotation instantly. The silver light, which was stopped and trapped in the Taoist Connotation, was floating directly in front of Xu Que!
“What?” the woman shouted with shock. Apparently, she didn’t expect Xu Que to be able to stop that silver light!
“What? It is a silver worm!” Xu Que exclaimed, as he discovered the silver light in front of him was actually a silver worm!
“This is the Silver Worm of Thread Shadow, which is so rare that one of this kind of silver worm can only be found in one million Worm of Thread Shadows! This worm also caused my father’s death!” Liu Jingning yelled angrily.
“The Silver Worm of Thread Shadow? It could evolve into a divine worm by absorbing blood and True Core Strength, right? Young Master Li, please enjoy this worm!” Xu Que appeared in front of the young master of the Li Family with the worm in his hand.
Before the young master had time to react, Xu Que waved his hand and threw the worm into the young master’s mouth!
“Wh…what? Oh…no!” the young master of the Li Family screamed madly. Apparently, he was greatly terrified by this worm!
“Come on, it is just a worm. Why are you so nervous?” Xu Que said disdainfully.
“No, Xu Que, Senior Xu, please don’t kill me! I was wrong! I was really wrong! Please be magnanimous and forgive me!” the young master of the Li Family begged for mercy, since he was completely terrified!
After being nourished for many years, this Silver Worm of Thread Shadow had already grown into an adult worm. Once it entered the body of a cultivator, it would absorb True Core Strength frantically. When all the True Core Strength was drained, it would start to gnaw the flesh and bones till nothing was left.
The young master of the Li Family knew this very well, and, therefore, he started to beg for mercy, hoping that Xu Que would let him return to the Li Family, where someone could take the worm out of his body.
“Hmm, OK, since you admit that you were wrong, I forgive you! OK, open your mouth, I’ll put something in to help you!”
Xu Que took out a long and slippery thing and inserted it into the mouth of the Li Family’s young master gruffly!
It was a live rice field eel!
“Oh, no, no.…” the young master of the Li Family, who was confined by Xu Que’s power, could do nothing but make some helpless noises.
Xu Que started to smile like an angel. “Don’t be afraid. This is the seven-color eel of the Exploding Heavens Faction. I put it into your mouth so that it could catch that worm! Oh, no, it seems it is not working! Don’t panic! Let me put an eagle into your mouth, so that it can catch that eel.…”
