Chapter 257: Chapter 255: You Really Are a Beast
The Grand Elder stared at Qin Li with a grim expression, then narrowed his eyes. His gloomy old eyes glinted as he stared at Shangguan Shiyu, his thoughts unreadable. Then he spoke coldly, "He killed so many disciples of my Divine Eagle Sect, and you want to let him leave? Lao Qi, oh Lao Qi, you’re becoming more foolish with age! Why don’t you ask your dead disciples if they’re willing to let these two murderers walk away? Ask the people of the Divine Eagle Sect around you if they’re willing!"
The Seventh Elder’s face flushed red with anger, and he retorted furiously, "If you hadn’t killed this girl’s father back then, why would they have come looking for us?"
"Lao Qi, that’s a pointless thing to say. What makes you think I was the one who killed her father? Why couldn’t it have been you?" The Grand Elder sneered, then looked at Qin Li and scoffed, "You’ve got some nerve, coming here to die. So tell me, how would you like to perish?"
The Seventh Elder was so furious he was practically fuming. The other Elders of the Divine Eagle Sect exchanged glances. The Fourth Elder spoke up, "There was no right or wrong in what happened back then. Lao Qi, you’re definitely mistaken to want to let these two go. On this point, I must side with the Grand Elder. Since when does our Divine Eagle Sect tolerate being bullied like this?"
"That’s right, Lao Qi, you’ve really made a mistake this time. Never mind whether we were involved back then. Just the fact that these two slaughtered so many of our Divine Eagle Sect members and... abducted... your wife... how can you tolerate it?" The gaunt Sixth Elder’s eyes gleamed, and he couldn’t help but reveal a hint of lust as he stared at Shangguan Shiyu. ’A beauty like this is truly rare,’ he thought. ’No, she’s the most beautiful I’ve ever seen!’
"So, in my opinion, we should capture them both and interrogate them properly!" After the Sixth Elder finished speaking, many others voiced their agreement. Of course, only they knew their true intentions.
The Seventh Elder sighed softly. He turned his head toward Shangguan Shiyu, his gaze extremely complex, and said in a low voice, "Child, I’m sorry. It’s not that I don’t want to help you, it’s just... I’m powerless!"
Qin Li looked at the Seventh Elder with disdain, then glanced at the various expressions on the faces of the Divine Eagle Sect members. He spat and said, "And you think you’re any better? Don’t bother putting on that innocent act! Let me tell you, we dared to come here today because we are absolutely certain of our success!"
As Qin Li spoke, he pointed a finger at the Divine Eagle Sect members. "I came here today to kill only two people! The first is the Grand Elder. He must die! The second is this Seventh Elder! He must die too. As for the reason, after you’re dead, you can go ask the person you should be asking in the afterlife! As for the rest of you, this is a private grudge. If you insist on getting involved, then I don’t mind wiping all of you out as well! I’ve never had a good impression of your Sect to begin with!"
"HAHAHAHAHA!"
The Grand Elder threw his head back and laughed, then looked smugly at the Seventh Elder. "Lao Qi, did you hear that? All your kindness was for nothing! Haha, this is hilarious! He wants to kill you, too!"
Then he turned his head, his eyes shooting two chilling glares at Qin Li. "You little bastard! I have lived for over two hundred years, and this is the first time I’ve ever seen someone so arrogant they don’t know the meaning of death! I’d like to see how you’re going to kill me when I’m standing right here!"
"You may be over two hundred, but you’ve wasted it all living like a dog!" Qin Li said lightly. "Don’t be in such a hurry to die. How could I possibly let you die so painlessly? Wouldn’t that be a great disservice to you?"
As Qin Li spoke, he unleashed his full aura of the Celestial Integration Realm. The immense pressure surged toward the crowd from the Divine Eagle Sect like a tidal wave. He bellowed, "Those of you who aren’t involved, scram now! Or are you waiting to die?"
BOOM!
In an instant, many people’s faces turned ashen as they were forced to retreat.
Everyone stared at the handsome young man in disbelief, utterly horrified. ’How old can he be?’ they wondered. ’How could he possess such power?’
’Impossible. This is simply impossible!’
The only ones who could withstand Qin Li’s aura without their expressions changing were the few Elders of the Divine Eagle Sect, along with some powerful disciples who looked to be at least in their eighties or nineties, or even over a hundred years old!
"No wonder you’re so arrogant. I didn’t expect you to have this kind of power." The Grand Elder was also a little surprised, but a sneer quickly appeared on his face. "But do you really think you can kill us with just this? You little whelp, you must be tired of living. Don’t worry, though. We’ll only kill you. As for the little lady next to you, I can’t bear to kill her! Not only will I not kill her, but I’ll take very good care of her. Haha, hahaha!"
"Shameless!" Shangguan Shiyu spat out the single word coldly. A murderous aura erupted from her, its intensity not the slightest bit weaker than Qin Li’s!
The members of the Divine Eagle Sect were stunned once again. ’Heavens,’ they thought, ’how does this beautiful young woman also possess such profound cultivation!’
"Haha, I couldn’t tell she was also an expert. That’s even better! More my style!" The Grand Elder laughed gleefully, his deeply wrinkled old face crinkling up like a blooming chrysanthemum.
Qin Li’s body suddenly moved. Like a blur, he shot directly toward the gloating Grand Elder, swung his arm, and viciously slapped him across his gleefully laughing face!
"You’re courting death, kid!"
The Grand Elder roared, unleashing his own aura in an attempt to completely suppress Qin Li. He released its full power.
Celestial Embracing Realm!
The Grand Elder’s power had already reached the peak of the Celestial Embracing Realm!
SLAP!
A crisp, clear smack rang out. Qin Li was already back in his original spot, while one side of the Grand Elder’s face had instantly become red and swollen from the vicious, heavy-handed slap!
Almost everyone stood there as if petrified, staring dumbfounded at the scene. In their hearts, they couldn’t even believe it was real!
’How could someone who only has the aura of the Celestial Integration Realm... possibly withstand a Martial Artist at the Celestial Embracing Realm and slap him right across the face?’
PTHOO!
The Grand Elder opened his mouth and spat out a mouthful of blood, along with a few black-and-yellow teeth. He, too, had been completely stunned by Qin Li’s slap!
A tsunami-like ringing roared in one of his ears, and the fiery pain on his face reminded him that this was not a dream!
"AAARGH!"
The Grand Elder suddenly roared at the sky, "You little bastard, I’ll kill you!"
With that, the simple, ancient longsword in his hand unsheathed with a CLANG, and an astonishingly powerful line of Sword Qi slashed violently toward Qin Li.
’To kill you, I don’t need to stoop to other tricks!’
Two beams of light suddenly erupted from Qin Li’s eyes. The Blood-Drinking Divine Sword appeared in his hand, and the sheer killing intent it exuded made many of the onlookers tremble.
Two stunning arcs of purple Sword Qi slashed toward the Grand Elder’s arms with unbelievable speed!
The Grand Elder instantly pushed his Protective Gang Qi to its absolute limit. The swollen half of his face looked even more hideous as he sneered ferociously. ’Kid, trying to fight a Celestial Embracing Realm expert with your Celestial Integration Realm strength? Even if your Body Technique is unparalleled, you’re still going to die!’
But the moment the two purple streaks of Sword Qi sliced through his Protective Gang Qi as if it were rotten wood, then severed his arms as if they were tofu, the Grand Elder’s ferocious smile froze on his face. And then... he let out an earth-shattering scream!
Meanwhile, the Sword Qi the Grand Elder had slashed at Qin Li was easily dodged. Qin Li’s speed was incredibly fast. He rushed toward the falling Grand Elder and viciously kicked him in the groin!
AHH!
This scream was so bloodcurdling it was as if it came from the depths of the Nine Netherworld Hell!
Not only did the kick smash the Grand Elder’s groin to a pulp, but it also destroyed his Dantian, making his desire to self-detonate his Pill Core an extravagant fantasy!
"Shameless old bastard, why aren’t you laughing now?"
Both men landed on the ground at the same time. One was lying down, the other standing. Qin Li planted a foot on the Grand Elder’s face and sneered, "Go on, laugh again. Let me see it!"
The Grand Elder was in so much pain he was about to pass out. He was coughing up mouthful after mouthful of fresh blood, his eyes shooting venomous glares as he stared fixedly at Qin Li.
"That’s for not laughing!"
CRACK!
"That’s for glaring at me!"
CRACK!
"That’s for killing my father-in-law!"
CRACK!
"That’s for looking at my wife!
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK!
The people from the Divine Eagle Sect were completely stupefied, watching as the young man, like a demon, broke one of the Grand Elder’s bones with every curse he uttered.
First the shins, then the thighs, then the ribs, and then the chest!
By the time Qin Li had crushed nearly every bone in the Grand Elder’s body to splinters, the old man barely had the strength left to scream.
At his current realm, Qin Li was practically invincible in a one-on-one fight against anyone below the Venerable Realm, so why would he need to use the Suppression Technique? Killing him like this was the only way to truly vent the foul anger in his heart!
The Grand Elder lay on the ground, his old eyes narrowed to slits, staring at the azure sky. A rattling sound came from his throat; he could only breathe in, not out.
Qin Li looked at the members of the Divine Eagle Sect, who were stirring restlessly and looked like they wanted to rush forward. He sneered, "Who else wants to come up here and die?"
The crowd instantly fell dead silent. Though everyone’s expression was incredibly grim, faced with such a ferocious young expert, their courage failed them!
’He’s too terrifying!’
’Even an expert at the Venerable Realm wouldn’t be able to kill a Martial Artist of the Celestial Embracing Realm so easily!’
’What kind of combat technique is this young man using? And that sword in his hand... it’s clearly a Divine Weapon!’
Just then, the Seventh Elder’s figure flashed, and he instantly appeared beside Shangguan Shiyu. He pressed the blade of his sword against her throat and shouted sternly, "You little bastard, drop your weapon and surrender, or... I’ll... ruin her!"
Qin Li seemed to have expected this. A strange smile played on his lips as he slowly shook his head. "You really are a beast." (To be continued. If you want to know what happens next, please log in to www.qidian.com. More Chapters, support the author, support genuine reading!)
