Seen the future?
What future?
Mo Yu noticed that Qin Shou’s attention had been fixed on Chu Yuli the entire time.
A faint suspicion formed in his heart.
If he asked directly, he would know everything.
Besides, evil cultivators were enemies of all. Anyone could kill them.
He despised evil cultivators the most.
Qin Shou hovered in midair, his gaze predatory and unrestrained.
A wicked smile curled at his lips, and his voice carried undisguised greed. “I must say, you truly are beau—”
Before he could finish.
Mo Yu moved.
No unnecessary motion. No magical treasures summoned.
He simply raised his right hand casually.
Spiritual energy surged out instantly, forming a massive spiritual palm.
The palm blotted out the sky and radiated terrifying pressure.
As if it could grasp heaven and earth within its hold.
Boom!
With a thunderous sound, the palm seized Qin Shou in the blink of an eye.
Qin Shou had no time to react before he was bound in midair, unable to move.
The cruel smile on his face froze, replaced by boundless horror.
How was this possible?!
He frantically mobilized the spiritual power within his body, trying to break free from the giant palm.
Yet it was all futile.
The force was vast as an abyss and heavy as a mountain.
It pressed down on him until he nearly suffocated, his organs feeling as though they were about to burst.
He raised his head in terror and looked at Mo Yu.
Only then did he realize that he could not perceive this man’s cultivation at all.
Damn it!
How could there really be a cultivator stronger than him in this forsaken place?
Mo Yu leapt lightly from the flying sword and landed steadily on the ground.
“Why did you attack my disciple?”
Qin Shou was shocked. “Disciple? How is that possible? How could she have a master?”
He clearly remembered that Chu Yuli had been a wandering cultivator. She had not even had friends, let alone a master.
At that moment, a furious shout exploded, startling birds from the forest.
“Insolence! Release my Young Master at once!”
Mo Yu looked up and saw an old man in black robes striding through the air, his aura imposing.
Hope reignited in Qin Shou’s eyes.
His Dao protector, Qin Kui!
9th stage Golden Core Realm!
That was the source of his arrogance.
The Qin family was a Divine Transformation Realm clan with a thousand-year legacy.
Their foundation far surpassed the wandering cultivators of this remote region.
Even at the same Golden Core Realm.
In terms of magical treasures and experience, Qin Kui was vastly superior to ordinary cultivators.
Today, he would make this ignorant wandering cultivator pay the price!
Chu Yuli’s brows knit slightly, worry rising within her.
The old man could walk through the air. He was also a Golden Core powerhouse.
If her master fought such a strong opponent, he might be injured.
Just then, a voice rolled in like spring thunder.
“Fellow Daoist, I will lend you a hand.”
Mo Yu turned toward the voice.
A white-robed elder with an immortal bearing drifted over.
Every movement radiated the demeanor of a true master.
“I advise you not to meddle in other people’s affairs!” Qin Kui shouted angrily, his voice shaking the surroundings.
This man was also at the 9th stage Golden Core Realm.
Combined with Mo Yu, who appeared to be at the 8th stage Golden Core Realm, they would not be easy to handle.
The white-robed elder declared loudly, “This old man is Xuanfeng Zhenren of Mystic Sword Manor. I sensed overwhelming evil energy here and came to eliminate demons and defend the Dao!”
He looked at Mo Yu and said, “Fellow Daoist, do not worry. I alone am sufficient to deal with him.”
“Many thanks,” Mo Yu replied, cupping his fists.
Across the entire Heavenly Profound Domain, forces bearing the character Xuan were generally affiliated with the Heavenly Profound Holy Land.
His gaze returned to Qin Shou. “Now, we can have a proper talk.”
“What do you want to know?” Qin Shou’s expression darkened.
He did not believe Xuanfeng Zhenren could defeat Qin Kui.
All he needed to do was stall for time.
On the other side, Qin Kui snorted coldly.
He summoned a demonic sword.
Biting the tip of his tongue, he sprayed a mouthful of essence blood onto the blade and formed a sword seal.
The demonic sword emitted a shrill cry, surging with monstrous demonic aura as it sliced through the sky toward Xuanfeng Zhenren.
Xuanfeng Zhenren did not dare to be careless and immediately summoned his flying sword to block.
However, the moment the two swords collided, his flying sword was cleaved apart like tofu, shattering inch by inch.
His pupils shrank sharply. “A spiritual weapon?!”
Spiritual weapons were treasures only Nascent Soul Realm cultivators were qualified to possess.
The next instant, the demonic sword did not slow at all and shot straight toward his brow.
“Fellow Daoist, quickly assist me! Let us join forces to eliminate the demon!”
Xuanfeng Zhenren was horrified and hurriedly condensed a shield of spiritual power to block.
Damn it!
If I had known, why would I have come to meddle? Now I may lose my life here!
Mo Yu watched the scene and sighed helplessly.
Defeated in seconds.
With a flick of his finger, a strand of spiritual energy entered Qin Shou’s body, instantly sealing his Golden Core. He casually tossed him aside.
In the next moment, Mo Yu appeared in front of Xuanfeng Zhenren.
He extended two fingers and effortlessly caught the incoming demonic sword.
Everyone present was stunned.
Qin Kui’s eyes widened in disbelief.
To end the battle quickly, he had burned his essence blood.
That strike was unquestionably the strongest blow beneath the Nascent Soul Realm.
Yet it had been casually caught between two fingers?
Xuanfeng Zhenren was equally stunned.
His face flushed red in embarrassment.
The man had never needed saving at all.
Chu Yuli stared blankly at the scene.
Master is so handsome!
Mo Yu stood in white robes, holding the demonic sword between two fingers, looking as ethereal as an immortal.
With a casual toss, the demonic sword embedded itself deep into the ground.
His figure blurred into an afterimage as he instantly closed the distance to Qin Kui.
At some point, a long spear gleaming with cold light had appeared in his hand.
Runes flowed along the shaft, emitting heart-palpitating fluctuations.
The spear tip shimmered with chilling brilliance, wrapped in unparalleled killing intent, aimed straight at Qin Kui’s heart.
Alarm bells rang wildly in Qin Kui’s mind as the shadow of death enveloped him.
Without thinking, he hurriedly summoned a black-glowing spiritual shield in front of himself.
On the shield, the image of a mysterious turtle was vividly carved, exuding a mountain-like solidity.
Boom!
A deafening explosion shook the heavens.
The spear tip collided violently with the shield.
The seemingly indestructible shield shattered like fragile paper, breaking apart piece by piece.
The spear continued forward unstoppable, piercing straight through the old man’s chest.
Blood sprayed into the air, staining the sky red, yet strangely not a drop touched Mo Yu.
Qin Kui’s eyes bulged wide, filled with disbelief and despair.
A 9th stage Golden Core Realm cultivator holding a spiritual shield, yet he could not withstand a single strike.
That shield could not be easily destroyed even by a Nascent Soul Realm powerhouse.
“You… who exactly are—”
His voice broke into a hoarse rasp, wanting to know the truth.
Mo Yu gave him no chance.
With a flick of his wrist.
Cold white flames erupted from the spear, spreading instantly and engulfing Qin Kui entirely.
Under the burning of Netherworld Ghost Flame, his physical body and soul were reduced to nothing in an instant.
Mo Yu withdrew the spear, and the Netherworld Ghost Flame at its tip slowly extinguished.
“Is the 9th stage Golden Core Realm very strong?”
His voice was not loud, yet it clearly reached every person present.
Xuanfeng Zhenren was shocked.
That was impressive.
I’ve learned it!
Next time I fight someone at the Foundation Establishment Realm, I’ll say the same thing.
Chu Yuli gazed at Mo Yu’s back, her eyes shining.
Master is truly incredible!
He can instantly kill a Golden Core powerhouse.
Master must be at the Nascent Soul Realm, hiding his cultivation at the Golden Core Realm.
One day, she would do the same.
She would never let others know her true strength.
