Chapter 534: Chapter 532: You’re Finished
Xiao Ming’s face was dark and grim, his eyes as sharp as blades, fixed intently on Xu Yang’s retreating figure, a storm of ruthless intent and murderous aura surging endlessly within them.
Although in this battle, he had utterly defeated Xu Yang.
The latter was nearly powerless to fight back in front of him.
But how long had Xu Yang just stepped into the Spirit Realm?
Not even a year!
And yet he actually forced him to use such top-tier techniques as "Five Elements Cataclysm" and "Five Elements Giant Spirit God."
It was simply inconceivable!
His potential and willpower left Xiao Ming deeply shaken.
Though he was immensely confident in his own strength, he had never once underestimated any opponent.
Time and again, he lured Xu Yang with Earth Spirit Milk, all to shatter Xu Yang’s spirit, cause his will to collapse, and leave a lifelong shadow, so he would never amount to greatness.
But in the end, he still failed!
Damn it!
Xiao Ming suppressed his murderous intent, cursing under his breath.
Still, this trip wasn’t without results.
At the very least, Xu Yang was defeated terribly.
This was a warning to anyone in the Spirit Realm who would dare challenge his authority.
"Even if you have the chance, you’ll never be worthy of surpassing me." Xiao Ming gave a cold laugh, collecting his scattered thoughts.
Xu Yang left Dongyang Profound Sect.
Within Dongyang Profound Sect, not a single person came to see him off!
This stance left both Xiao Ming and Chen Xuanji quite satisfied.
On the other side.
Xu Yang sat cross-legged in the wilderness at the foot of the mountain, the grass beneath him drenched in blood.
Everything from the battle churned in his mind, and suddenly he started laughing.
"Xiao Ming, I should thank you for making me realize the true, massive gap between us!"
"Otherwise, I might have kept feeling smug about my own progress!"
"You’re just too strong, but I’ll never retreat an inch!"
"Just you wait!"
Xu Yang slowly unclenched his tightly held fist and quickly swallowed a Healing Elixir.
Hiss—!
The normally gentle energy spread through his limbs, but now it hit like a raging storm, bringing excruciating pain.
Blood gushed out from his wounds uncontrollably, surging forth in streams!
Xu Yang drew in a sharp breath, his facial orifices spasming, nearly passing out from the pain.
His wounds were simply too severe.
His body could barely bear even the mild medicinal effects of the Healing Elixir.
Xu Yang gritted his teeth, barely managing to ignite his Minghuo, an invisible wave enveloping his body.
He absorbed the medicine’s power slowly.
Even if half of it was wasted right now, he couldn’t worry about that.
At a certain moment—
A streak of rainbow light suddenly appeared overhead.
Spiritual radiance flashed, and a Spiritual Boat silently faded into view, atop which stood two graceful figures.
They were none other than the Fang Xiyu sisters.
"Xu Yang, found you at last."
Fang Xiyu glared at Xu Yang with a twisted expression, hatred etched deep in her bones, her killing intent flooding the wilds.
With a crisp ’snap,’ the wild grass bowed and collapsed, utterly destroyed.
All around, the air bristled with icy tension.
Xu Yang’s eyes snapped open, his expression instantly darkening.
This woman again!
"You want to kill me—does Chen Xuanji know about this?"
One sentence, and it was like a spark that instantly set off the powder keg of Fang Xiyu’s temper.
Her alluring face twisted violently, her fists clenched, killing intent soaring to the heavens.
"You fucking bastard, if not for you, how could my junior brother have blamed me?"
"If it weren’t for you, my junior brother and I would’ve been in perfect harmony, envied by gods and men alike—destined by the heavens to be Dao Companions!"
"It’s all because of you..."
Fang Xiyu shrieked at her peak, descending from the sky, a three-foot Spirit Sword materializing in her hand.
Xu Yang’s muscles trembled all over.
This woman’s gone insane, hasn’t she?
And this is somehow my fault?
Even though he’d been prepared, Fang Xiyu’s outburst still left him nearly thunderstruck.
Does she have shit for brains?
"Hold it!"
Xu Yang struggled to his feet in embarrassment, shouting coldly.
Fang Xiyu paused mid-motion, raised her Spirit Sword, and laughed with fury: "I should at least thank Xiao Ming for crippling you. Since you’re dying, go ahead and spit out whatever last words you have."
Xu Yang could tell—this crazy woman’s killing intent was off the charts; she didn’t care about anything else.
"You know the consequences of killing me?"
Fang Xiyu sneered: "You think I’m an idiot? You die here, and Dongyang Profound Sect will suffer most!"
"What’s it got to do with Fang Xiyu? What’s it got to do with Star Nebula Infinite Sea?"
"If you want to blame someone, blame them for not even sending an escort. Heaven decreed you’d die here today!"
Forget it—there’s no reasoning with this psychotic woman.
Xu Yang’s face turned black. Right now, he couldn’t fight at all—his injuries were too severe.
"I’m not talking about that. Are you really sure you want to kill me?"
"If you kill me, you’re finished."
Fang Xiyu’s brow furrowed, her face flashing with impatience.
"Still playing tricks!"
"After you’re dead, everything will vanish like smoke!"
"Go to hell."
As her words fell, Fang Xiyu shot forth like lightning, her sword sweeping across the void, its edge surging in tidal waves, crashing like stormy seas, raising overwhelming sword waves a hundred feet high, blotting out the sky, suffused with killing intent.
Above them—
The younger sister squinted, and a Spirit Jade shone in her hand.
"Senior Sister, he’s right. If you dare to kill him, you’re finished."
The younger sister’s smile was radiant, but quickly vanished—her face impassive.
Below.
Xu Yang staggered backwards.
But the swordlight was lightning-fast, curling through the air, wave after wave howling and sharp, leaving no place to hide.
Xu Yang suddenly stopped, coldly laughing at Fang Xiyu: "Let’s see if you can really bear the consequences!"
"Stupid bitch!"
"You just called me what?"
Fang Xiyu roared in crazed fury, her sword’s power instantly surging higher.
Shoo!
Ink-black light erupted.
A Spiritual Boat appeared in midair.
Just as the sword waves crashed down, Xu Yang shot into the Ink Cloud Boat.
Boom!
The waves smashed into the Ink Cloud Boat but didn’t stir up even the slightest ripple.
"A Spiritual Boat?"
Fang Xiyu’s face changed. Her robes whipped around her, Sword Intent blazing as she prepared to unleash an even greater Divine Technique; but the Ink Cloud Boat turned into a streak of black lightning, tearing the sky asunder, bolting straight upward.
"Fang Xiyu, you bitch! If I, Xu Yang, don’t die, I’ll make you pay a hundredfold!"
"Star Nebula Infinite Sea, you people have gone too far!"
His roar, furious and wounded, cracked like thunder, shaking the heavens and earth.
It burst out in overwhelming waves, rolling for miles, sweeping across thousands of miles around.
In Dongyang Profound Sect, in Dongyang City, countless Martial Artists heard this soul-wrenching scream and were dumbstruck, bewildered.
"What happened just now?"
"Fang Xiyu? What’s she doing here?"
"Wasn’t that... Xu Yang’s voice?"
With that roar, the Ink Cloud Boat burst away at top speed, vanishing without a trace.
In the desolate wilds, Fang Xiyu stood as if struck by lightning, frozen in place.
Above, a flicker of shock crossed the younger sister’s eyes. She stared deep and long at the spot where Ink Cloud Boat disappeared, panic instantly filling her own face.
She rushed down, saying: "Senior Sister, what do we do? Dongyang Profound Sect and Dongyang City—lots of people probably heard just now..."
"Shut up! Shut the hell up!"
Fang Xiyu roared in fury, glaring with disgust at her younger sister.
The younger sister’s pretty face went pale; she shrank her head, trembling, looking soft and pitiful as she shivered miserably.
But in her eyes, there was only cold hatred and mocking laughter.
Fang Xiyu, you’re finished, you’re finished—hahaha.
Meanwhile, at Dongyang Profound Sect—
Xiao Ming and Chen Xuanji, who still hadn’t left, wore complex expressions.
"Dammit!"
"That idiotic woman!"
Chen Xuanji was shaking all over, cursing in a rage.
He couldn’t fathom how Fang Xiyu could be so damn stupid.
He wanted to kill Xu Yang more than anyone.
But now? Of all times?
The quota battle was about to begin.
The War King’s Clan had already gone mad once, leaving Star Nebula Infinite Sea with a heavy loss.
If they openly went for Xu Yang now, would they really want a top-tier sect war right before the quota fight?
Don’t forget—Daqian still has a Celestial Immortal!
Forget all that; Xu Yang just got ’beaten to hell’ at Dongyang Profound Sect by Xiao Ming and is seriously wounded!
Soon everyone in the Spirit Realm will know about it!
And now, the Star Nebula Infinite Sea’s core disciple Fang Xiyu tries to kill Xu Yang out in the wilds.
Everyone in the Spirit Realm knows his relationship with Fang Xiyu is almost like a Dao Companion. Whether they think he hides behind a woman or that Fang Xiyu’s taking action for revenge on his behalf, it’ll bring a storm of mockery.
And it’ll be a major headache for Star Nebula Infinite Sea, too!
At this point, Chen Xuanji was completely numb.
Xiao Ming squinted, his voice cold: "That senior sister of yours is a complete idiot!"
"Might as well take this chance to cut ties for good—a blessing in disguise!"
With that, Xiao Ming leapt up and left Dongyang Profound Sect.
Chen Xuanji’s face was livid, his whole body shaking in rage.
"Fang Xiyu, you brought this on yourself."
