Chapter 254: Killing Elder Liu
Chapter 254: Killing Elder Liu
Soon, it had been another few days.
On the ground, a figure was slowly walking towards the outskirts of the wilderness.
Faint sunlight fell on that person’s body, and anyone who was here would discover that this was a strange-looking woman.
The woman wore white clothes and had many wounds over her body. Her face was very pale, but her speed was not slow at all.
"I have to go faster, faster..."
As she walked on the path, she held her chest and did her best to walk on.
Over the past few days, she had scouted out much information, including the travels of the Zhang clan’s people.
By now, Sharky was not too far away from the Wind Thunder Sect.
She had to stop Sharky and the others here and tell them everything, or else it would be too late.
"Cough, cough..." as she walked, she continuously coughed up blood.
Violent pain filled her body, but she did not care and only desperately went on.
It was just that as she headed onwards, the backlash in her body became more terrifying, causing her body to become weaker.
Within her pain, her consciousness gradually became more and more hazy.
---
"We’re nearly there," Zhang Ya sat in the carriage as she looked out and said to Sharky, "Husband, there’s still time to change your mind. If we turn back now, they might not be able to catch up to us."
By now, they were quite close to the Wind Thunder Sect, and the Wind Thunder Sect’s cultivators would be able to sense Sharky and the others’ existence.
Under such circumstances, it was quite dangerous for them.
If the Wind Thunder Sect’s Bone And Soul Refining cultivators directly acted, apart from Sharky, no one else here would be able to escape.
However, despite this, Zhang Ya was not afraid.
The rest of them were not that important; as long as her husband could leave from this place, she would be happy.
As such, it was not too late to change his mind just yet.
"You don’t understand me till now, but today you will know me." Sitting within the carriage, Sharky closed his eyes and replied her, "Did you smell it? That faint scent of blood."
Sharky slowly opened his eyes and looked into the distance as he spoke.
"What?"
Zhang Ya was stunned.
Bang!
In the distance, a clear sound rang out, accompanied by ripples of magic energy and a stench of blood.
It was quite faint, but everyone sensed that scent of blood.
"Enemy attack!" Sensing those ripples of magic energy, Zhang Ya’s expression slightly changed as she shot out of the carriage.
She left from this place and quickly rushed into the distance.
However, after seeing the scene in the distance, her expression greatly changed.
"Junior Apprentice Sister Fen!"
In the distance, there was a figure standing there. It was a man dressed in black robes, with a dignified appearance.
In his hand, he was tightly grabbing onto a figure by the neck.
That person was someone Zhang Ya was quite familiar with—it was Liu Fen.
Right now, her face was as pale as paper, and her aura was extremely weak, as if she would die at any moment. She was being held in mid-air by the man, and she was unable to resist at all.
"Who are you?" Zhang Ya’s pupils constricted as she looked at the middle-aged man and said seriously.
Hearing this, the middle-aged man did not reply and only silently turned and looked at Zhang Ya.
In the next moment, a suffocating pressure rushed at her.
A terrifying aura blasted out, turning into a hand that stretched towards Zhang Ya.
Massive power exploded out; it was far past Foundation Building.
Bone And Soul Refining!
At that moment, Zhang Ya thought to herself.
After 5 years, she had reached Peak of Foundation Building.
For such an attack to cause her to feel such terror, it was definitely a Bone And Soul Refining cultivator.
"Am I going to die?"
The hand stretched towards her, looking quite slow, but it was actually just in an instant.
Sensing that terrifying power, Zhang Ya had a look of shock as she thought to herself.
At that moment, the hand reached her.
A deafening explosion sounded out, causing the world to seem to shake.
The ground beneath split open, resulting in large cracks.
However, Zhang Ya was uninjured.
Zhang Ya breathed raggedly as she came back to her senses.
"Hm?" the middle-aged man frowned and looked out.
However, this time, he did not continue to attack Zhang Ya and instead directly attacked that carriage.
With a rumble, the entire world seemed to be covered by a massive wave of magic energy. Space itself twisted and mountains and rivers shattered, causing massive disturbances.
It was just that despite that strike being so terrifying, it did not cause much of an effect.
There seemed to be a layer of formless ripples in the surroundings, covering this area and dispersing the attack.
Seeing this, the middle-aged man could not believe his eyes and prepared to attack again.
However, at this moment, changes happened from within the carriage.
Bang! Bang!
Massive sounds sounded out like war drums, sounding incredibly clear.
Following this, a figure slowly got up and walked out of the carriage.
Boom! Boom!
In the surroundings, the space twisted and light shone out, making that figure seem incredibly divine and dignified.
The middle-aged man could not help but take a step back, looking quite shocked.
"How... is this possible?" he thought in disbelief.
Even though they were both Bone And Soul Refining cultivators, before that person had even revealed himself and attacked, he had such terrifying might.
How was that possible?
However, he did not have the time to think about this, because in the next moment, a formless wave of light slammed into his body, sending him flying.
He flew backwards, heavily slamming into a large mountain, causing it to collapse.
Formless magic energy charged about within his body, directly injuring him.
Just this simple attack defeated a Bone And Soul Refining cultivator.
This strength made Zhang Ya feel completely stunned.
"What are you standing there for?" a voice sounded out, sounding both gentle and imposing.
Zhang Ya instinctively turned and saw Sharky calmly standing there.
After getting out of the carriage, he looked as he always did.
However, in front of Sharky, Liu Fen was no longer in that middle-aged man’s hands and had been brought over by Sharky.
"This..."
Looking at Liu Fen, Sharky inwardly frowned.
Liu Fen’s situation was quite bad.
She was covered with injuries on the surface, and she also had injuries on a deeper level.
That was not a simple injury; her Spirit Foundation had been damaged.
"Just what happened?"
After examining Liu Fen’s body, Sharky inwardly frowned.
One’s Spirit Foundation being damaged was no simple matter.
Sharky had personally experienced this in the past.
However, this kind of injury was not something that could happen easily.
Just what had happened to Liu Fen?
However, this was not the most pressing matter right now.
Standing there, Sharky handed Liu Fen to Zhang Ya before turning and looking towards the middle-aged man.
By now, the middle-aged man had gotten up and was looking at Sharky with an unsightly expression.
"Are you from the Wind Thunder Sect?" Sharky asked in an angry tone.
"Indeed," the middle-aged man got up and looked at Sharky with an unsightly expression, "Why did the Zhang clan’s clan leader attack me?"
"There are three mistakes you have made in your life today."
"First, you attacked Liu Fen, she is my Dao Companion."
"Second, you have attacked my clan members."
"And third, you have attacked my wife, which has sealed your fate."
"Now, even if God wants, no one can save your life," Sharky shouted looking at the middle-aged man.
The man paused and glared at Sharky furiously, "Zhang clan’s clan leader, are you going to betray the sect? Protecting a demonic cultivator and attacking an Elder, do you know how serious this is?"
"I naturally do know." Sharky nodded, "But isn’t that what you wanted? Moreover I give you death like, that even death will enjoy it."
As he spoke, he slowly walked forwards towards the middle-aged man.
Immediately, cold sweat rolled down the middle-aged man’s face as his hands and feet instinctively trembled.
---
"This is bad!" Within the Wind Thunder Sect, a secret meeting was underway.
Most of the Wind Thunder Sect’s Elders were gathered and were discussing together.
However, right now, everyone was focused on the messenger who had just arrived.
"Elder Liu, Elder Liu he..."
A disciple ran in and looked at the Elders with an expression of grief.
Looking at the disciple, the Elders present stared for a moment before coldly asking, "Hurry up and say what happened to Elder Liu."
"Elder Liu... Elder Liu he..."
Facing the gazes of so many Elders, the disciple stuttered before speaking, "Elder Liu fell. Just then, in order to capture the demonic cultivator, he ran into the Zhang clan leader. He was directly defeated by the Zhang clan leader and killed!"
"And he died a brutal death, first his hands were. tear off. Then his legs were torn off. Then his heart was taken out in front of his eyes, when he was still alive. And finally, the Zhang clan leader blasted his head."
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
Compared to the noisy scene before, things were now deathly silent.
Everyone was shocked by the death given to Elder Liu. Some female elders even peed their pants.
"Bastard!"
After a while, someone said furiously, "How dare he! He dares to kill people outside our Wind Thunder Sect? Elders, who is willing to go and capture him?"
He looked at the other Elders as he said coldly.
Hearing this, the other Elders fell silent and frowned.
They had heard about everything that had happened from the disciple, and by hearing he died a dreaded death.
Everyone was shaken from inside.
It seemed a bit too easy for the Zhang clan leader to do this.
Because of this, most Elders frowned and no one spoke.
Only after a while did someone speak.
"I will go and test him out," a middle-aged man got up, "To be able to kill Elder Liu, he is indeed quite strong. However, the Zhang clan leader will definitely have used up much of his strength and might be barely holding himself together."
"Indeed," the oldest Elder nodded and said, "If we do not respond to the Zhang clan leader killing an Elder outside our Sect and even liked this, won’t we be asking for people to look down on us? Since Elder Song is going to fight, we will keep watch and come to support you if needed."
"Sounds good!" Elder Song did not hesitate and turned and walked out.
After watching him leave, the Elder in charge looked at the other Elders and said softly, "Everyone, let us go and bring up the rear for Elder Song."
"Very well," the other Elders nodded before heading out.
"We should also activate the Great Formation just in case," the Elder frowned as he said on the way.
Following this, they went out to meet the Zhang clan leader.
Outside the hall, after the Elders left, a woman slowly walked over. Looking at the scene before her and sensing that terrifying magic energy aura, she could not help but sigh.
"Looks like things still ended up like this." Under the faint sunlight, the woman’s beautiful appearance was revealed. She wore a white dress and looked like a goddess.
"What is the situation like outside?" Gao Yue lightly sighed before asking.
"The Zhang clan leader is outside the Wind Thunder Sect, and Miss Fen is with him right now," a young girl beside her said, "Right now, the Elders are heading out, and Elder Song is preparing to act.
"That Zhang clan leader’s strength is extraordinary, for him to be able to kill Elder Liu. And he is a terrifying guy. From him giving the brutal death to the Elder Liu."
"He is not to be underestimated within the Bone And Soul Refining realm. However, Elder Song is no ordinary person either. Decades ago, he defeated many Bone And Soul Refining realm cultivators, and after all this time, his cultivation has progressed even more."
"Even though the Zhang clan leader is quite mighty, he has not cultivated for a long time. He might not be able to stand up to Elder Song."
Standing there, Gao Yue thought through the information about the Wind Thunder Sect’s Elders before shaking her head, "Moreover, what if he can defeat Elder Song?
"Behind the Elder Song are twenty other Elders. Even if he can defeat one of them, can he defeat all of them?"
She could not help but sigh.
Based on what she understood about the Elders, it was quite likely that they would use their superiority in numbers.
They would still fight one on one at the start for the Sect’s reputation, but if Elder Song fell, they would not care about that anymore and would all attack Sharky together.
When that time came, even if the Zhang clan leader’s strength was legendary, so what?
She could not help but sigh and said softly, "Let’s go. The outcome is essentially set."
Liu Fen was currently in Sharky’s hands—it seemed that her investment had failed.
However, Gao Yue did not mind too much.
This was something she had done on a whim, so it did not matter too much if it succeeded or not.
Just as she was about to walk, she stopped as a disciple ran up to her.
"Princess!" the disciple ran over to her and gave his report, "Elder Song has fallen!"
Hearing this, Gao Yue’s expression slightly changed.
"So quickly?"
Standing there, she instinctively raised her head and looked into the distance.
At that moment, an aura burst out.
In the distance, boundless blood qi erupted as a mighty martial intent exploded out.
In the air, spirit qi rumbled and fused together with the blood qi, turning into a blood-red dragon that rampaged and roared in the sky.
Boom!
A boundless aura erupted out for just an instant, but it was like a divine sword light that left behind traces in everyone’s hearts.
Standing there and sensing this, Gao Yue’s expression greatly changed.
"Let’s go!"
She seemed to sense something and she no longer looked as calm.
In the distance, at the foot of a mountain.
On the ground, Sharky stood there by himself, looking into the distance.
Opposite him, Elder Song was half-kneeling on the ground, a look of shock on his face.
"You..."
He half-knelt on the ground, and even though he had a Bone And Soul Refining realm body, he was unable to go on anymore.
In front of his chest, there was a clear injury from which blood was flowing down.
Behind him, the Wind Thunder Sect Elders stared in shock, unable to make a sound.
"Im-Impossible..."
Only after a while did they come back to their senses, looking at Sharky in shock.
"Even Elder Song..."
Even though they were all Bone And Soul Refining realm cultivators and Elders of the Wind Thunder Sect, they knew clearly the difference of strength between them.
That Elder Song was the strongest among all of them.
However, even so, he had been unable to last a few attacks against Sharky. He had been cut to the ground and had been unable to resist at all.
This was not a fight but a one-sided suppression.
By now, they realized something—the Zhang clan leader had most likely surpassed Bone And Soul Refining and reached a completely new level.
