Chapter 597 Greed

Jiu You’s little figure, holding the golden halberd, was surrounded by bright and colorful lights. And her hair fluttered wildly in the wind. She killed two experts at the Immortal Level in the blink of an eye. The Fusang warriors could not believe their eyes.

“So weak.” Jiu You’s voice was childish but full of disdain.

In fact, the Ren Skills of the Fusang warriors were quite powerful. She didn’t find out where the other party was, and Chu Xun transmitted a voice message to her.

“Who dares to fight me?” Jiu You pointed her halberd at the Fusang warriors present, taunting them.

Qiushan Ling’s expression darkened. Two experts at the Immortal Level had been killed so easily by a child. That was an extraordinary humiliation for them.

Having experienced the destructive power of Jiu You, Jinye and the others were not surprised. Ordinary experts at the Immortal Level were no match for her at all.

“Fusang State? Haha...” Chu Xun chuckled and enraged all the warriors of Fusang State present. They were despised.

“You are not in Huaxia, Chu the Devil. Do you think that we can’t do anything to you?” Qiushan Ling was surrounded by killing intent.

Chu Xun raised the corners of his mouth slightly and said disdainfully, “I’ve never taken you seriously.”

Swoosh!

A bright sword light slashed down from behind Chu Xun. It appeared suddenly, and it came from a tricky direction, ruthlessly.

Everyone was shocked. When did the Fusang warrior hide behind Chu Xun?

The blade was cold, making people feel cold all over. Chu Xun’s clothes and hair were blown up by the Broadsword Qi, rustling and exploding.

Qiushan Ling and the rest of the warriors of the Fusang State grinned wickedly. The person who dared to act arrogantly in Fusang State would be killed like this. They expected that Chu Xun would be cleaved into halves.

A cold light flashed in Chu Xun’s eyes. He did not turn around, nor did he make any attempt to dodge. The Hong Meng Immortal Qi around him exploded and swept away. With a boom, the Fusang warrior who launched the sneak attack was torn into pieces, and so was the sword in his hand.

The ferocious smiles on the faces of the warriors of Fusang State froze, and they looked funny. The warrior was at the initial stage of the Earth Immortal Realm, but he was killed easily by Chu Xun.

“You are forcing me to slaughter all of you, so I’ll do that.” As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xun suddenly rushed out.

“Chu the Devil, don’t be arrogant.” Qiushan Ling attacked with a saber. The moment he drew his saber from its sheath, the blade light filled the sky, and the people present could only see Saber Qi.

Chu Xun’s feet did not touch the ground, and he moved in the air. He had said that he would not step on the ground because he felt this land was dirty. The Immortal Qi around him surged and turned into thousands of Reincarnation Lines, whistling out. With the harsh sound of metal clashing, thousands of streaks of Sword Qi were destroyed by Reincarnation Lines.

Qiushan Ling’s pupils contracted. He moved around Chu Xun quickly like a ghost. At the same time, Qiushan Ling appeared in four directions of Chu Xun and slashed at him.

Doppelgangers Illusion Skill.

“As a group of despicable thieves, the martial skills you learned were just defective skills stolen from Huaxia.” Chu Xun sneered.

Boom!

Chu Xun flicked his finger gently. Four streaks of purple light shot into the air and instantly defeated three of the figures. The only one left managed to dodge, rushed to Chu Xun, and slashed at Chu Xun’s neck with a cold blade.

Chu Xun snorted coldly. He made a fist print, and his fist turned into a purple crystal. He turned around and punched out. The power of his fist surged like thunder.

With several crisp sounds, the saber in Qiushan Ling’s hand was broken into several pieces. Chu Xun’s fist hit Qiushan Ling’s chest without any fancy moves. With a click, Qiushan Ling’s chest collapsed, and he flew backward.

Chu Xun followed Qiushan Ling like a shadow and caught up with him. He stepped on Qiushan Ling, who was flying backward. With a boom, Qiushan Ling exploded, and his flesh and blood flew in all directions.

Qiushan Ling’s death made the expressions of the warriors of the Fusang State turn pale. Jinye and the others were stunned, too. Qiushan Ling was as powerful as them, and Chu Xun killed him like stepping on an ant. This was the greatest contempt for them.

Chu Xun turned around, full of indifference in his eyes.

He said indifferently, “Demon-slain Finger — Killing the living by the first finger!”

“Demon-slain Finger — Smashing the mountain and river by the second finger!”

“Demon-slain Finger — Scaring all the gods and ghosts by the third finger!”

“Demon-slain Finger — Shaking the sky by the fourth finger!”

The four giant fingers shook the void, and the earth trembled. Then they fell with the power to destroy everything.

Boom!

The earth cracked, and gravel jumped into the air. The dust rolled and spread to cover the sky.

Several breaths later, the dust cloud dissipated.

Jinye and the others were shocked and stunned. They saw a huge hole appear on the ground, and all the warriors of Fusang State disappeared. How cruel he was!

“Which force do these warriors belong to, Jinye?” Chu Xun asked.

Jinye’s expression was complicated. Chu Xun deceived them, and his cultivation was far higher than theirs.

“All the warriors of Fusang State belong to Baqi Palace,” Jinye said, “this is why Fusang State is so powerful. Regardless of warriors’ identities, they gather all the warriors in Baqi Palace and manage them. All the warriors have the same goal, to fight for Fusang State.”

Chu Xun was slightly stunned. He didn’t expect Fusang State was so smart. Although Fusang State was a small country, its master had a clear mind. Its area was not big. If all the forces were allowed to take their own places, the overall Martial Tao force of Fusang State would be divided. Therefore, all the forces must be united and form a powerful force.

“Only a small country could do such a thing. Huaxia is much larger than Fusang State and has tens of millions of forces there. Who has the ability to integrate them?” Flaming Qilin said.

Chu Xun nodded. Flaming Qilin was right. It was not difficult to unite all the forces of a small country like Fusang State, but who could do that in Huaxia?

“Brother Chu Xun, you’ve deceived us for so long,” Jiao Zecheng said.

Chu Xun knew that he was talking about the fact that he hid his level of cultivation. Actually, he did that to prevent a sudden situation. He did not intend to expose his level when he killed Qiushan Ling. However, he was so angry that he killed Qiushan Ling in an instant subconsciously. Therefore, he unveiled his level of cultivation.

“Everyone, how about we go to Baqi Palace?” Chu Xun smiled.

Jinye and others were in a daze.

“Friend Chu Xun, what do you want to do?”

Chu Xun said, “Since we can’t cooperate to ascend the Immortal Island, why don’t we join forces to destroy Baqi Palace? So many forces of Fusang State have united together, meaning that all the resources have been gathered together. You can think about how many treasures there are. I’m afraid that the treasures are no less than those on Immortal Island. Also, we don’t know what’s on the Immortal Island, and there must be many dangers waiting for us. Why don’t we get the treasures in Baqi Palace first? What if there is nothing precious on the island?”

The eyes of Jinye and others lit up. Chu Xun was right. Compared with the unknown danger and things of the island, the Baqi Palace was a better choice.

“Everyone, Baqi Palace is just a force in this small place and has no background. If we rob it, no one will say anything.” Seeing Jinye and the other interested, Chu Xun continued to persuade them.

Jinye and the others exchanged looks and saw the greed in each other’s eyes.

“We don’t have a complete map yet. It is hard to climb to the island. Baqi Palace is right in front of us. Do you want to come here for nothing?” Chu Xun asked.

The eyes of Jinye and others flickered. Of course, they did not want to come here in vain, but they were not stupid. As a unified force, Baqi Palace was not easy to deal with.

“Everyone, how about this? I will be the first to attack the Baqi Palace. You guys can stay outside to support. If there is any great danger, you can retreat immediately. In this way, you will not suffer any losses,” Chu Xun said.

Jinye smiled bitterly and said, “Brother Chu Xun, what you think is too easy. Not to mention the Holy Beast of the Baqi Palace, Baqi Snake, we can’t even defeat the four Sword Sages.”

Chu Xun was slightly stunned and asked, ” Baqi Snake? The four Sword Sages? What is the level of their cultivation?”

“We don’t know about Baqi Snake, but the four Sword Sages are at the Great Completion of the Earth Immortal Realm. It is said that they may have stepped into the Gold Immortal Realm,” Jinye said.

Chu Xun murmured, “The Four Sword Sages are easy for me to deal with, but I don’t know how powerful Baqi Snake is. It’s a little troublesome.”

Jinye and the others were shocked and looked at each other. They could see the horror in each other’s eyes. “Has Chu Xun’s cultivation reached such a high level?”

“Brother Chu, are you able to deal with the four Sword Sages?” Jinye spoke with shock.

Flaming Qilin sneered and said, “Don’t underestimate Chu the Devil. The Great Completion of the Earth Immortal Realm is nothing to him. The number of the experts at the level that Chu Xun has already killed is eight or ten.”

“Is Brother Chu Xun beyond the level?” Jiao Zecheng exclaimed.

“I’m ashamed. I am just approaching it and haven’t stepped into the Gold Immortal Realm,” Chu Xun said modestly.

Jinye and the others were dumbfounded.

Jiu You tilted her little head. When did Chu Xun kill eight or ten experts at the Great Completion of the Earth Immortal Realm? The doppelganger of the Fourth Demon Lord was at the later stage of the Great Completion of the Earth Immortal Realm, approaching the Gold Immortal Realm. Without precious techniques and Sacred Relics, he would not have been able to defeat the doppelganger of the Fourth Demon Lord.

Flaming Qilin secretly exchanged glances with Chu Xun without leaving a trace.

“Alas, it’s a pity. Even if I can deal with the four Sword Sages, it’s useless if no one can stop Baqi Snake. We can only watch the huge amount of cultivation resources and can’t get them!” Chu Xun sighed.

Jinye and the others looked at each other, and their eyes flickered.

“Let’s go back to Huaxia. It’s really a waste of time.” Flaming Qilin muttered.

Chu Xun nodded and said to Jinye and the others with cupped fists, “See you later.”

After that, he asked his companions to leave with him.

“Wait a minute, Chu Xun,” Jinye shouted, “maybe it’s possible.”

Chu Xun sneered secretly. As long as someone became greedy, his thoughts would be affected. He was waiting for the words from Jinye, but he pretended to be ecstatic and said, “Are you sure?”

Jinye nodded and said, “Please wait for a moment, Brother Chu Xun. Let’s discuss it.”

“OK,” Chu Xun said.

Jinye, Jiao Zecheng, and Sha Luo walked to the side and began to discuss, whispering.

A faint smile appeared at the corners of Chu Xun’s mouth. He had guessed the result of their discussion.
