Chapter 916 Taking revenge (2)


Chapter 916 Taking revenge (2)

Lowering his head, the old man could no longer conceal the horror in his eyes as he stared fearfully at the short silver dagger that had somehow found its way past his defenses and was now lodged in his heart!

”You…? Who are you?” Elder Ming’s voice was clearly trembling, but he still managed to utter that single question as he looked fearfully at the blond-haired woman who was now standing in front of him.

The old man was certain that he had never met this particular peak-stage Dao King before, let alone have a feud with her, so why would she choose to ambush him like that?! Of course, the thought that Xingyi was related to Liu Mei didn’t even cross his mind. After all, if she was really a part of Liu Mei’s group, why wouldn’t she step in earlier when they were attacking their formation as a group, and would only make her move now, once he had already decided to escape?

To the old man’s regret though, Xingyi wasn’t the type to give an explanation once she had already decided to kill someone!

Her right hand was still holding the dagger that was embedded in Elder Ming’s chest as her left hand flashed like lightning, before another silver dagger materialized in her palm out of thin air.

With a swift motion, the young woman then slashed sideways, instantly severing the old man’s head in a swift strike!

Just like that… a peak-stage Dao King had lost his life!

Inside the ‘Five-elements protective formation’, Shun Long watched the 2 scenes unfold almost simultaneously without saying a word.

Just as Xingyi severed Elder Ming’s head, Liu Mei’s black skeletons and the Death Eater obliterated the bald middle-aged man they were fighting against, causing his robust body to burst into a pool of blood, before disappearing completely from the face of the Endless Desert!

Although body refiners possessed incredibly tough bodies and were extremely difficult to be killed, it wasn’t impossible to do so if someone trapped them and exhausted all their energy first. As long as they couldn’t reform their bodies or if their souls were wounded during a fight, killing them wasn’t an impossible task any longer.

Closing his eyes, Shun Long didn’t bother with the remaining 4 peak-stage Dao Kings outside and emptied his mind, as he decided to continue his cultivation again. His number one priority right now was to absorb as much of the surrounding ‘immortal qi’ as he could and get as close to the peak of the Dao King realm as possible before the ‘City of Immortals’ closed its doors and kicked them out.

Although Bai Longtian and Jiang Chen had already stepped into the early rank 9 of the Dao King realm, Shun Long could only lament over his own progress as his ‘Monarch’s Hourglass’ could only be described as a bottomless pit at this point! Regardless of how much immortal qi he absorbed, after stepping into the late stages of the Dao King realm, Shun Long could tell that even with the ‘Heaven Swallowing vine’s’ help, he might not make it to the peak of the Dao King realm before the 10-year-mark came to an end.

At the same time, after completely obliterating the bald middle-aged man, Liu Mei retracted the skeletons and undead knights under her command, leaving only the Death Eater behind, before taking a seat on the hideous monster’s back.

The green-robed woman named Wang Dongmei, as well as the other 2 peak-stage Dao Kings who had come alongside Elder Ming had already left this place a long time ago, leaving only the white-robed Zhuan Peng behind.

The Elder of the Holy sect was extremely curious about Liu Mei’s experiences over the last few years and how she had improved her cultivation so quickly, and his curiosity was only amplified after witnessing how strong she had grown already!

Zhuan Peng was previously confident that he could at the very least contend with Liu Mei if not outright subdue her, even if they were both peak-rank 9 Dao Kings, but after seeing that last display of strength, the old man realized how much he had underestimated the young woman in front of him.

At this point, Liu Mei was without a doubt far stronger than him. She may not necessarily be able to contend with those monsters in the top 100 rankings of the ‘White tiger chamber of commerce’, but at least as far as the outer court Elders of the Holy sect were concerned, only a couple of them could be a match for her at this point!

After letting out a gentle sigh, the white-robed old man cupped his hands towards the young woman in the distance before turning around to leave.

Although Zhuan Peng really wanted to have a lengthy discussion with Liu Mei in hopes of finally getting past his barrier and ascending to the Dao Emperor realm in the future, he knew that now was not the right time for him to do so.

After all, regardless of how generous Liu Mei may be and willing to accommodate him, the old man’s skin wasn’t thick enough to sit around and talk over a cup of tea, after his junior had just slaughtered one of his companions and caused the rest of them to flee.

With a respectful look, Liu Mei stood up and cupped her hands in response, as she saw the white-robed Elder take his leave.

No matter what, Zhuan Peng was a respected Elder and was someone who had treated Shun Long and the others fairly during their stay in the Holy sect, so Liu Mei would naturally treat the man with proper respect as well.

In fact, if it wasn’t for the black-robed Elder Ming being hell-bent on entering the ‘Five-elements protective formation’ earlier, Liu Mei would have been willing to take a step back and give Zhuan Peng some face. Unfortunately, Liu Mei had already learned the hard way that appearing weak within the ‘City of Immortals’ was tantamount to suicide. Thus the only course of action left for her was to thoroughly deal with the black-robed old man!

..

Barely a minute had passed since Zhuan Peng left the place, before Xingyi’s figure gradually emerged from the shadows, appearing directly in front of the Death Eater.

The blond-haired beauty had a warm smile on her face as she sat atop the enormous monster’s back, right next to Liu Mei, before she looked at her and said confidently ”Mei, there’s no need to wait any longer. Let’s return to that oasis!”
