Chapter 2058: Chapter 2063: On the Brink of Eruption
"Daoist Fellow Xia, please speak. I believe you wouldn’t kill for no reason."
After going through so many days together with Xia Liu.
Qi Zheng was very certain about Xia Liu’s character.
His Dao was deeper and steadier than his own.
The reason his Power of Righteous Law could kill a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator.
Was because this power was so Pure Holy!
Ordinary cultivators simply could not possess it!
"The Young Master Zhuang, Zhuang Bifan, coveted my Magic Artifact. When he failed to snatch it, I crippled his foundation. In the end, the Zhuang Family shielded their own, and I had no choice but to shock Zhuang Fei to death within the Heavenly Sect."
A very brief explanation.
Yet it gave everyone present a jolt of deterrence!
This sort of situation played out every day.
In the scheming, backstabbing Cultivation Realm.
The strong were revered.
The Zhuang Family was even a top-tier second-rate power in the Myriad Realms.
Anything the Young Master Zhuang took a fancy to, he would naturally never let go.
Unfortunately, he underestimated the other party’s strength.
He tried to steal a chicken but ended up losing the rice.
In the end he even implicated a Nascent Soul Expert.
And now, there were wanted posters in quite a few regions of the Myriad Realms.
The second-rate Zhuang Family had put a bounty on Xia Liu!
There was even a clear portrait.
This was practically the most sensational event in the last hundred years, second only to the Ascension Conference.
Xia Liu’s appearance had made the long-peaceful Myriad Realms once again have something to talk about.
Brought a round of uproar.
And now, witnessing Xia Liu’s Divine Might with their own eyes.
Everyone present couldn’t help but tremble.
At the same time, they all shared a conjecture.
The Myriad Realms would probably be shaken even more in the days to come!
And the source would be Xia Liu!
"Heh, trying to rob someone else’s resources and getting slain in return, nothing unusual about that!"
Qi Zheng loathed this kind of person the most.
If he were Xia Liu and had that kind of ability.
He would absolutely have done the same thing.
Qi Tao and the others all fell silent.
Perhaps, as Xia Liu said, the truth really was that he had no choice but to kill.
"Elders, you all heard it, didn’t you? The Daoist Fellows I befriend absolutely do not slaughter the innocent at random!"
Qi Zheng was very pleased.
He rarely misjudged people.
Other than those few fools whose hearts had been blinded by profit.
"Mm, Young Master indeed did not misjudge him. But he killed a Zhuang Family Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator. In the future, the Zhuang Family will likely go all out. Young Master, you had best not get involved in this matter."
Qi Mie transmitted via voice.
For a moment Qi Zheng didn’t know how to respond to this topic.
Just then, Xia Liu suddenly looked at him, with a look like he didn’t know how to open his mouth.
"Daoist Fellow Xia, do you have something to say?"
Qi Zheng set aside Qi Mie’s question, staring at Xia Liu in puzzlement, giving him confidence.
"I do. It’s about your Qi Family."
Xia Liu thought for a moment; since the matter with the Zhuang Family had been laid bare, he might as well lay out his entire grievance with the Qi Family as well.
Then he would see what Qi Zheng thought.
Better to be open than to play at being fake Daoist friends.
"Hm? What does it have to do with my Qi Family? Also, Daoist Fellow Xia, don’t misunderstand, I want to befriend you not out of ulterior motives, but because your Dao and mine spring from the same source."
Xia Liu shook his head and said bitterly, "Before I slew the Zhuang Family Nascent Soul, I also killed a Qi Family Nascent Soul."
Boom!
Xia Liu’s words were like Heavenly Thunder.
Exploding in everyone’s hearts.
He actually dared to slaughter a Qi Family Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator!!!
And even succeeded!
Now he was openly confessing this in front of the Young Master of Qi Family and the Qi Family Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators!
Wasn’t this far too confident!
Did he really think that with his current cultivation he could fight the four Qi Family Nascent Soul Stage Cultivators?
After slaying a Qi Family Nascent Soul, did he think the Young Master of Qi Family would forgive him?
Even Qi Zheng was dumbfounded.
Things weren’t supposed to go like this.
How could Xia Liu have killed a Qi Family cultivator?
The Qi Family was the pillar of the Righteous Path in the Northern Realm.
They definitely wouldn’t commit acts like murder for treasures.
"Hahaha! Brat! You finally slipped up! Daring to touch a Qi Family cultivator—no matter what the reason, today I must capture you!"
Qi Tao instantly became fanatical.
How many years had it been!
How many years had it been since anyone dared offend the Qi Family!
This time, there was actually someone who had slain a Qi Family Nascent Soul!
Even if Xia Liu had ten lives, this time he would have to die!
Without another word, Qi Mie directly began Energy Circulation.
The mid-stage Nascent Soul pressure swept across the sky.
Shocking an area of three hundred li!
The air congealed, a hundred corpses bowed their heads!
The Golden Pill Stage Cultivators on the field could no longer endure this pressure.
From kneeling on one knee, they were pressed flat onto the ground.
They all knew very clearly what was about to happen next.
Before their eyes, a battle even more grand than the previous one was about to unfold!
It would likely reach the peak of anything they had ever seen in their lives!
"Surrender and be captured!"
Cold words came from Qi Mie’s mouth. freēwēbηovel.c૦m
His face had long since turned hideous.
To dare touch a Qi Family cultivator was to humiliate the Qi Family!
Xia Liu had even slain a Qi Family Nascent Soul.
If they did not act, what face would the Qi Family have left?
Even the current Su Family and the Cultivation Alliance did not dare touch Qi Family cultivators.
How dare this Xia Liu!
"Who’s going to surrender and be captured! I’d like to see who dares touch my Daoist Friend today!!"
Just as Qi Mie was about to move to suppress Xia Liu.
Qi Zheng stepped forward.
The very first thing he did was use his own body to shield Xia Liu.
Then he reached up and yanked off the Magic Artifact hanging from his neck, and threw it to the ground.
Bang!
In the instant he lost his protective Magic Artifact, Qi Zheng could no longer withstand Qi Mie’s pressure and dropped to one knee.
Crushing a huge boulder beneath him.
"Young Master!"
Qi Mie hurriedly drew back his aura, bean-sized drops of cold sweat sliding from his forehead.
He truly wanted to slap himself to death.
He had actually unleashed pressure on the Young Master he was supposed to protect!
"Don’t call me Young Master! My name is Zheng Qi! I’m his Daoist Friend!"
Qi Zheng’s eyes were bloodshot as he slowly rose from the ground.
Even though the kneecap in his leg had already shattered.
He still felt no fear, simply because he stood on Xia Liu’s side!
Simply because he wanted to befriend Xia Liu!
"Daoist Fellow Qi, why put yourself through this..."
The sealed-off heart within Xia Liu was inexplicably stirred.
Looking at the crazed Qi Zheng before him, he fell into memories.
He even saw a figure in Qi Zheng’s body—a figure he’d had no time to search for, no time to bid farewell to.
Lin Xiaotian...
"In this life, we never know when we’ll die. Seize the moment; for one’s convictions, for a kindred spirit, even giving up everything—so what!"
Qi Zheng’s resolute words entered Xia Liu’s ears.
Leaving him frozen on the spot.
So it turned out he had been overthinking everything.
So it turned out the Qi Family wasn’t entirely made up of bad people.
"Daoist Fellow Qi, I understand."
Xia Liu pressed both hands onto Qi Zheng’s shoulders.
At once, Wood Origin Force surged out from his Sea of Consciousness.
Through his palms, it rushed into Qi Zheng’s body.
"Damn it! Let go of our Young Master!"
Qi Tao, Sensing Xia Liu circulating Spiritual Power, immediately shouted in fury.
"Brother, stop!"
Qi Mie hurriedly stopped Qi Tao. ƒrēewebnovel.com
Because he had sensed the location of Qi Zheng’s injuries.
They were being nourished by a powerful Life Force!
The most terrifying part was that the shattered bones were slowly piecing themselves back together.
Then they were wrapped by this Life Force.
Achieving complete healing!
"What terrifying Life Force!"
The other two Elders also sensed that something was off, their faces filled with shock.
And not just them.
Almost every cultivator present was shaken...
