Extraordinary Medical Saint in the City

Chapter 1381 1379: Fire Lotus Sword, Shattered!

Hoo—

Hoo—

Hoo—

Zhu Qilue breathed heavily, his eyes wide open, staring intently at the sword being trampled over and over. He looked insane, his body trembling violently, veins bulging.

"I will kill you! I will kill you! I will kill you!"

He shouted three times, mobilizing all his spiritual power, trying to get up from the ground.

Even if he didn't have a single chance of winning, he would protect this sword with his life!

Because it was his mother's legacy.

Even if he died, he would drag Xu Tianrui with him!

This beast of a man dared to insult what he cherished most.

Usually.

He kept this sword in a box, reluctant even to take it out and admire it.

However.

This beast actually stepped on the sword and humiliated it so!

Buzzz—

Zhu Qilue's mind went blank, and he seemed to hear his mother's agonizing screams, a ringing sound in his ears.

He didn't know where his strength came from, but he suddenly sprang up from the ground, just as he was about to pounce on Xu Tianrui, aiming to perish together with He Qi.

But after all, he was gravely wounded, his movements much slower than usual.

His cultivation realm was not as advanced as Xu Tianrui's, and now, after such severe injuries, he was even less of a match for him.

Before he could stand straight, Xu Tianrui kicked him unceremoniously.

Boom!

Zhu Qilue was directly stepped under Xu Tianrui's foot, unable to move.

"F***, still trying to ambush me? You f***ing piece of trash, what right do you have to kill me, what are you going to use to kill me, this broken sword?"

Xu Tianrui stomped hard a few times on Zhu Qilue's head.

Zhu Qilue grunted, dizzy and his vision darkened, he vomited a mouthful of black blood with a wow.

He was almost stomped to death by Xu Tianrui!

Only the last breath was left.

Yet this time, no one could help him. Lin Fan was probably dead long before him, and his father Zhu Sui was probably hiding in his room, afraid to show himself.

Sigh...

He didn't expect to die so humiliatingly.

He swallowed hard, forcing a bitter smile.

Sweat and blood mixed together, blurring his eyes; he could barely make out the rusty broken sword, merely an arm's length away from him.

Even in death, he had to protect his mother's legacy.

With this in mind, he exerted all his strength to stretch out his hand, trying to snatch the broken sword from under Xu Tianrui's foot.

But just as his hand reached halfway, barely touching the hilt, Xu Tianrui stomped on it again.

"In your state, you still want the sword? Even if I gave it to you, could you hold it? You really have an obsession with this sword, huh? Who gave you this piece of junk, that you're willing to protect with your life?"

"Take your damn foot off! That's the sword my mother left me, if you dare insult this sword again, I won't let you rest, even as a ghost."

"Oh? Something your mother left?"

Rather than being surprised, Xu Tianrui laughed with interest, his eyes glinting.

"Well, in that case, your mother's been gone for so long, it's not right for this thing to stay with you."

Zhu Qilue froze, his cheeks twitching, his voice trembling.

"What... what do you mean?"

Xu Tianrui said with a smile: "Nothing much. Since your mother's gone, this belongs to her anyway, why not let it go with her?"

"How dare you!" Zhu Qilue roared in fury like thunder. Xu Tianrui's intent was obvious, he wanted to destroy the sword!

He struggled to get up, but Xu Tianrui firmly stepped on the back of his head, keeping him immobile.

"Why are you so agitated? I'm doing you a favor, not harming you."

"Cut your bullshit!"

"Just think, facing a dead person's belonging every day, what a downer. Besides, seeing something that recalls someone is not good for moving forward. And well, you're almost dead anyway, it's just a matter of who goes first and who goes later. Would you leave this broken sword for me after you're dead?" Xu Tianrui said mockingly.

Zhu Qilue was completely stunned.

Because he realized Xu Tianrui wasn't entirely wrong, he was almost dead; should he leave the sword for Xu Tianrui?

He might as well let him destroy the sword and take it with him to find his mother below.

He gulped, remaining silent, staring intently at the broken sword.

Tears or blood blurred his eyes, he could no longer clearly see the sword so close.

"How about it, doesn't what I said make sense? But you might have to watch this sword disappear first, and then it'll be your turn."

"Xu Tianrui!"

Zhu Qilue knew Xu Tianrui was toying with him, playing with him like an ant.

But what could he do...his skills weren't comparable to his opponent's, and now severely injured, he was no match for Xu Tianrui at all.

Besides impotent roaring, what could he do...

For the first time.

He felt he truly was a useless waste, incapable of achieving anything!

"Alright, I'll stop the nonsense with you, watch this sword's end closely. A legacy, leaving you with such rubbish, what a scam!"

Xu Tianrui laughed mockingly, holding up the Fire Lotus Sword high.

He aimed at the broken sword's body, knowing once his Fire Lotus Sword fell, the broken sword would become powder, all of Zhu Qilue's emotional anchors would be destroyed.

As he anticipated the look of Zhu Qilue howling in desperation and helplessness, he couldn't help but feel excited, his blood boiling, a thrilled and grim expression stretched across his face.

"Ant, say goodbye to your broken sword!"

Swish!

The Fire Lotus Sword descended, dragging out a tail of flames, slashing down with terrifying sword qi!

One breath!

Two breaths!

Three breaths!

Xu Tianrui deliberately slowed down the speed, making sure Zhu Qilue could enjoy the spectacle, watching his beloved object being destroyed.

He watched Zhu Qilue's expression intently, laughing crazily.

In Zhu Qilue's eyes.

Horror.

Helplessness.

Anger.

Despair.

Resignation.

A myriad of emotions interwove, flashing violently in his contracted pupils.

Zhu Qilue opened his mouth wide, wanting to scream but uttering no sound, an inexpressible discomfort in his throat, as if he would vomit.

He was powerless, could only watch as the item his mother left him was heartlessly destroyed.

Boom!

A loud bang, the Fire Lotus Sword struck the broken sword, producing a huge explosion, sparks flew, flames burst!

Not only was Zhu Qilue startled, but Xu Tianrui was also taken aback.

They didn't expect such an intense sound and explosion from the collision of two swords.

Even.

Xu Tianrui's arm felt a bit numb, his tiger's mouth was painfully shaken.

Zhu Qilue, like a deflated ball, collapsed helplessly on the ground, looking toward the broken sword's direction.

In the flames from the explosion.

He couldn't clearly see what the broken sword had become, whether it truly turned to powder or not.

But his heart had shattered into pieces.

"Damn, quite a bit of power." Xu Tianrui twisted his wrist, flicking the Fire Lotus Sword in his hand.

However!

Just as he was about to pick up the Fire Lotus Sword, he sensed something was off.

Bang—bang—bang—

Sounds like cracking came from the Fire Lotus Sword's blade.

Xu Tianrui frowned, glanced at the sword, and immediately panicked, eyes wide in shocked disbelief.

Countless cracks appeared on the Fire Lotus Sword's blade!

And the cracks were rapidly expanding, covering the entire blade in an instant!

Before Xu Tianrui could react.

With a loud crash!

The Fire Lotus Sword exploded, shattering into countless fragments, clattering to the ground.

In less than a breath.

All that was left in Xu Tianrui's hand was the sword hilt, the Fire Lotus Sword's blade shattered, gone!
