Chapter 7, The Killing Intent

At a critical moment, Qing Xu activated the blood and energy regulation technique of the Dongyang Sword Sect, instantly channeling this震荡力 throughout his body, then grounding it as he stepped down. Accompanied by the shattering of the solid bluestone floor, he retreated six steps, and his sword-wielding right hand completely lost sensation

She is merely an outer disciple, but it is only because she has caught the attention of Lan Yutong, who has a boundless future ahead, that she has the hope of advancing to the inner sect and even becoming a true disciple. At this moment, she has discerned the deeper meaning in Lan Yutong's tone and does not dare to show any negligence.

Murder!

Given Qing Xu's previous attempt on Zhuo Fenglei's life, he has already dared to commit murder

Stop! What do you intend to do? Is it to bully the weak with numbers?

Buzz!

Get lost

Whoosh

Lan Yutong said coldly from the side

Qingxu reacts very quickly

The sound of bones shattering echoed clearly

Click!

Despite the harsh and sarcastic words from Zhuo Yunqing in the morning, when faced with the interception by Zhuo Fengyun, Zhuo Fanglei, and Zhuo Xiangyang, he did not hesitate to stand up and choose to fight alongside him, as he is considered one of Qingxu's people... At present, however, the permitted person has dealt him a severe blow, leaving his life in uncertainty

In the eyes of Zhuo Fengyun, who discerned the anomaly in Qingxu, a flash of brilliance appeared. The sword in his hand whistled as it pierced through the air, and a sharp shriek echoed in the void. In an instant, the sword's edge was thrust directly towards the vital heart of Qingxu.

Qing Xu was sent flying by the sword of Jin Wu, who had just begun to refine his impurities. Zhuo Yunqing's precise control over strength is far inferior to that of Qing Xu. How could she possibly withstand a sword strike from a peak-level master of impurity refinement

Seeing Zhuo Fengyun still suffering a heavy blow despite his own assistance, Jin Wu felt a great loss of face. With a furious roar, he once again shook the sword in his hand and fiercely struck down.

However, Qingxu had already understood that the physique of a powerful practitioner was formidable. In the face of Jinwu's pursuit and a sword strike, he swiftly retreated. His second-tier swordsmanship talent allowed him to almost fully comprehend the characteristics of this sword technique in an instant. Before Jinwu could launch another attack, he had already paused his movement, halted, and then turned defense into offense

Feng Cun's expression was difficult to read.

Sister Xu, what are you still waiting for? Why not quickly assist Young Master Jin Wu in taking down Zhuo Qingxu? Zhuo Fengyun's injuries cannot be delayed for much longer

Is it never-ending

With a horizontal block of the sword, the trajectory of this strike was effortlessly sealed off completely

As the explosion dispersed, Qing Xu's expression suddenly changed, and a faint sound of bones creaked along his sword-wielding wrist up to his shoulder, the terrifying force emanating from it nearly threatening to shatter his entire arm

Severe injury, involving damage to internal organs

Dongyang Sword Sect, Meridian Cutting Technique

Haha, why bother Sister Xu to take action? A mere Zhuo Qingxu can be dealt with by me alone

Zhuo Qingxu relied on the profound swordsmanship of the Sword Saint Qingxu from the Huaguo era to easily defeat Zhuo Fenglai and Fang You. However, in terms of cultivation, he was merely at the initial stage of marrow washing, and his advantage against Zhuo Fengyun, who was already at the peak of marrow washing, had diminished significantly. Furthermore, with the presence of a Jinwu who had refined his internal organs, the situation became exceedingly dire.

A murderous intent suddenly emerged

With a low growl in his throat, Jin Wu exerted all his strength, and a roaring sound of rushing water seemed to resonate within him. Having refined his internal organs, he resembled a terrifying beast that had suddenly erupted, carrying an oppressive force that was suffocating. He charged forward, and with a single sword strike, the air waves in the void produced a faint explosive sound, as if this sword had torn through the very air itself

Lan Yutong looked at the arena and spoke calmly

The sound of metal clashing immediately rang out continuously, as Qing Xu, who had shifted from defense to offense, took advantage of the torrential assault, not allowing Jin Wu any time to gather strength for a counterattack, effectively suppressing his momentum completely

I never expected that even Brother Fang You would be unable to deal with Zhuo Qingxu

Zhuo Fengyun is clearly no match for Zhuo Qingxu ... In order to prevent Zhuo Qingxu from taking action against Zhuo Fengyun again, and to avoid the mistake of fellow disciples harming each other leading to a true expulsion from the Zhuo family, Junior Sister Xu, I kindly ask you to intervene this once

Good opportunity

Zhuo Yunqing was previously shocked by the brutality of Qing Xu severing half of Zhuo Fengyun's arm. At this moment, seeing Xu Ke take action, she suddenly came to her senses, let out a delicate shout, and fiercely raised her sword to counter.

With a swift and agile form, Lan Yutong charged directly towards Qing Xu

How could this be possible... Brother Jinwu has already begun to temper his internal organs and has entered the realm of refining the organs...

Stop!

Shockwave explosion

He underestimated the level of power that erupted from the internal organs of the strong practitioner of refining the internal organs

It is ! ''

However, her strength is at best comparable to Zhuo Fenglei, and is inferior to Fang You by half a point. How could she possibly withstand the permission of the person in charge

A harsh reprimand and a cry of anguish echoed simultaneously through the alley

Tear it apart

Alright, I have long found this fellow displeasing; he should take a look in the mirror to see what kind of character he possesses. How dare he, like a toad aspiring to eat swan meat, pursue you, Senior Sister. I will make him understand just how vast the gap is between him and you.

Upon receiving the urging from Lan Yutong, the permit holder felt a chill in their heart and quickly agreed.

Not only that, the force behind this strike penetrated deeply into his body, delivering a powerful blow to Zhuo Fengyun's heart. Although it did not shatter his heart in one blow, it caused his body to tremble violently, as if all the strength within him had been completely drained.

Bang

Jin Wu saw the person in charge approaching and, fearing to miss the opportunity to perform, let out a loud laugh, disregarding the fact that Qing Xu was currently engaged in battle with Zhuo Fengyun. He brazenly shouted: "Zhuo Qingxu, your methods are so vicious that it is no wonder the Zhuo family wants to expel you. You might as well surrender and go to the Zhuo family to accept your punishment!"

But ... ...

The licensee displayed a somewhat excited smile on their face

Golden Flow Shock

Zhuo Fengyun, the foremost young expert of the Zhuo family, had half of his arm unexpectedly severed by a single strike from Qingxu. Blood gushed forth from the upper half of his arm, splattering onto the ground.

There is the sound of shattered bones from the Qingxu finger, but more prominent is the sound of the ribs of Zhuo Fengyun's chest being crushed one by one

Zhuo Qingxu, who had always followed her like a lapdog, unexpectedly displayed such terrifying potential, which made her feel uneasy

Under the dispersing wave of energy, Zhuo Yunqing, who rushed forward to intercept, was sent flying backward at a speed that was no less than that with which he had approached. His internal organs were nearly completely displaced by this sword strike, and as he hung in mid-air, he had already spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, his breath rapidly declining

Only she herself knows how she treated Zhuo Qingxu at the beginning. At that time, Zhuo Qingxu was infatuated with her to the point of being willing to endure any beating, scolding, pleading, or giving.

This scene fell into Qing Xu's eyes, causing him to suddenly feel cold.

Jin Wu's younger sister stared in astonishment as her idealized elder brother, who was among the younger generation dominating the Yunhuang City, was suppressed by Qing Xu

Qing Xu's gaze became sharp, akin to the harshness of a severe winter. In the face of Zhuo Fengyun's lightning-fast sword strike, he could only tilt his body, allowing the sword to slice through his chest, leaving a trail of blood. However, at the moment of his body tilting, his left hand met the sword's edge that was aimed at him, forming a sword with his fingers and forcefully striking at Zhuo Fengyun's chest.

His strength is on par with Fang You, and since Qing Xu can easily defeat Fang You, he can naturally also defeat him

However, the reunion in the morning made her realize that Zhuo Qingxu was no longer the Zhuo Qingxu who would obey her every command. This son of the Zhuo family, the legitimate heir who, at the age of twelve, was valued by the talented direct disciple of the Hunyuan Tianzong, Nalan Fei, and was granted a token of an inner sect disciple, once he sheds his despondency, the talent that has been accumulating over time and is ready to burst forth is still sufficient to overshadow the brilliance of any young hero in Yunhuang City.

Scoundrel

Holy Art

A trace of coldness flashed in her starry eyes

Ah!

Bang

The pulse-cutting technique subdued Zhuo Fengyun, and Qingxu, who had faintly regained a trace of consciousness, suddenly lifted his right hand. Before Zhuo Fengyun could retract the sword he had thrust out, his right hand was slashed by another sword...

Bang! Bang! Bang!

Accompanied by a surge of the peak aura of refined vitality that had been perfected within her internal organs, her unsheathed sword, carrying the might of thunder, struck fiercely against the horizontally positioned sword of Zhuo Yunqing.
