My husband Can Cultivate

Chapter 403: 403

"Work with me!" The Fire General took a deep breath, ready to make his move.

"Understood!" Seeing him take action, the sixteen Elders dared to make their move as well. This way, their odds were better.

"I admit you're strong. I'm honestly not confident I can beat you," the Fire General said. "But with sixteen Elders by my side, you have no chance of survival. At the very least, you can't win!"

Previously, he had been full of confidence. But now, he wasn't so sure, which was why he had sought allies.

His combat blade blazed with crimson flames. The Great Elder also drew a sword, its blade glowing with a radiant light, not much weaker than the Demon General's had been. The others attacked one after another.

Sixteen Elders plus one Fire General. Could they take down the boss of the Qifei Group? Many in the crowd wanted to know, so they watched with rapt attention.

"Kill!"

The Fire General was the first to attack, for he was the strongest among them. Searing flames wreathed his body, lending him a mysterious aura of unbearable heat.

CLANG! CLANG!

Wielding the Black Sword, Yang Qi blocked the attacks from both the Fire General and the Great Elder. His left hand wasn't idle, either. He suddenly threw a punch, and the intense flames coalesced into a fiery dragon that charged toward the other Elders. Those men already lacked courage, and their Combat Power was insufficient. Faced with Yang Qi's attack, they were so terrified that they scattered in a pathetic rout. Still, the Fire Fist Skill devoured three of them, burning them to ashes.

All of this happened almost simultaneously. Yang Qi stood his ground, while the Fire General and the Great Elder were sent flying.

"A little interesting."

Yang Qi looked toward the Fire General. This Fire General's Combat Power is indeed impressive. Even with my physical strength as a Ninth-Rank Great Grandmaster, combined with my Immortal Cultivation at the Sixth Layer of the Foundation Establishment Stage, I only managed to knock him back, not kill him.

Compared to the Fire General, the Great Elder fared worse. He coughed up a mouthful of blood, injured by the impact.

Of course, even as Yang Qi considered this, his hands didn't stop moving. He didn't pursue the Fire General or the Great Elder. Instead, he charged toward the remaining Elders. Several more were cut down by the black longsword. Just like that, only six of the original sixteen Elders remained.

Seeing how dire the situation had become, the six began to entertain thoughts of escape.

"Running is useless. You've already made your move," the Fire General said coldly, seeming to have read their minds. "Even if you flee, he won't let you go. Our only chance is to band together and kill him. Otherwise, we all die."

The Elders' expressions suddenly hardened with resolve, and a desperate light filled their eyes. He's right. Running is useless. We might as well fight!

"Kill!"

The eight of them charged at Yang Qi once more. The onlookers felt a sense of unease as they looked at the golden Shura Mask. They couldn't see Yang Qi's expression or guess what he was thinking.

The two sides clashed again. The Fire General held off Yang Qi by himself while the other Elders looked for a chance to launch a sneak attack. They had realized they stood no chance against Yang Qi in a direct confrontation and had to find a way to strike from the periphery.

But it was useless. Yang Qi was far more terrifying than they had imagined. The Fire General soon felt himself being overwhelmed. Yet Yang Qi, while fighting him one-on-one, could still multitask. His Magic Artifact darted back and forth, extinguishing the lives of another three Elders.

The Fire General grew desperate. Suddenly, real flames erupted from his body, burning off all his hair, but his Combat Power instantly skyrocketed. He swung his combat blade at Yang Qi. At the same time, the other five launched their attacks.

But Yang Qi paid no attention to their attacks. His entire focus was on the Fire General. It appeared as though several people were fighting him together, but the only one who could truly harm him was the Fire General. Holding his sword with both hands, Yang Qi blocked the Fire General's strike, sending him flying once again.

The remaining five Elders' attacks landed on Yang Qi's body, but the Stone Armor Technique was terrifyingly powerful. Combined with his Vajra Body Refining Technique, his body was practically indestructible. At the very least, those Elders couldn't hurt him. He only needed to defend against the Fire General's attacks.

"Kill!"

Even as he was struck, Yang Qi flung out three Ice Cones.

THUNK! THUNK! THUNK!

With three soft impacts, three more men fell to the ground. Only two Elders were left!

This man is a monster! The Great Elder was terrified. Their attacks couldn't even scratch Yang Qi. How could they possibly win this fight? It looked like a joint effort, but they were merely throwing their lives away. Meanwhile, the Fire General—the only one who could truly harm Yang Qi—was being singled out.

"Kill!"

Yang Qi's battle spirit soared. This fight was truly exhilarating. The Fire General was strong, which made him the perfect opponent to sharpen Yang Qi's combat skills. Though powerful, he lacked real-world battle experience. This was incredibly satisfying.

The Fire General was visibly suppressed, forced back step by step.

Just then, a sword suddenly thrust toward Yang Qi's back. It was the Great Elder, searching for a weakness.

"Annoying little pest. I was waiting for you to make your move!"

Yang Qi didn't just let the attack land this time. Even if it couldn't hurt him, it was still a nuisance. He didn't turn. Instead, he thrust his longsword backward from under his arm.

SHINK!

It was as if he had eyes in the back of his head. The strike was impeccably accurate. By the time the Great Elder tried to dodge, it was too late. He was already lunging toward Yang Qi, and it was impossible to alter his momentum.

He was impaled. The sword pierced his heart without deviating by a hair's breadth. The strike was so precise that the Great Elder died believing Yang Qi truly had eyes in the back of his head.

How is this possible...?!

The Great Elder collapsed to the ground, his eyes closing for the last time. He was dead.

Seeing this, the last remaining Elder ignored whatever the Fire General was saying and turned to flee. But he didn't get far before Cao Shaqing killed him.

Cao Shaqing got to his feet. Others could die, but not the Fire General. He had been too late to prevent the Demon General's death, but he had to save the Fire General.

Yang Qi ignored Cao Shaqing, focusing all his efforts on the Fire General. With no one else to interfere, even with his power fully unleashed, the Fire General was still being forced back step by step under Yang Qi's assault. Wounds had already begun to appear on his body.

At that moment, Cao Shaqing made his move.

But a pebble suddenly shot out from the crowd, blocking his path. It was thrown with immense power, clearly intended to stop him from helping the Fire General.

Cao Shaqing tried to find who was obstructing him, but he couldn't. The person was cunning and extremely cautious, their method of throwing the pebble incredibly covert. He simply couldn't see them. But every time he tried to intervene, he was blocked.

He didn't get many chances to try. By his third attempt, Yang Qi's longsword had already pierced the Fire General's throat, sending him to meet his end.

"No—!" Cao Shaqing roared, but it was too late. There was nothing he could do.

The Fire General was killed!

The Six Great Generals were all dead!

The losses for the Thunder Sect were catastrophic. And this was with Yang Qi holding back; he hadn't even touched the ordinary disciples. If he had, the Thunder Sect would have been washed away in a river of blood today. As it was, the scene wasn't far from it.
