Chapter 188: Chapter 188: Kill at Will!
Luo Cheng rushed into the clearing and immediately noticed Gu Lingfeng lying on the ground, his face darkened.
Gu Lingfeng’s face was blue and purple, his legs twisted at a strange angle, his robes stained red with blood, and he was on the brink of death, already passed out.
The sound of something cutting through the air was heard as Yuan Zhilan and Chen Lingyu also arrived.
"Gu Lingfeng!"
Seeing Gu Lingfeng’s miserable state, Yuan Zhilan was shocked, her eyes immediately reddening.
This wretched state was enough to imagine what Gu Lingfeng had just experienced.
Chen Lingyu’s delicate eyebrows also furrowed slightly, a little resentful:
"These people went too far! They are fellow disciples, how could they be so ruthless!"
Luo Cheng said nothing, taking out a Healing Elixir from his Storage Spirit Ring, and went forward to feed it to Gu Lingfeng. Then he said deeply:
"Who are they?"
Yuan Zhilan frowned and thought for a moment, then said:
"I don’t recognize the others, but one of them was the person following Yan Qi yesterday, seems to be called Cheng Lin!"
"Oh?"
A glint flashed in Luo Cheng’s eyes as he got up and said lightly, "Yuan Zhilan, you take Gu Lingfeng back for treatment first."
Luo Cheng’s voice was very calm, but Chen Lingyu felt a deep chill and hurriedly said, "Junior Brother, what are you planning to do?"
Luo Cheng sneered, "These people were obviously after me. In that case, I should naturally go and greet them!"
Hearing this, Yuan Zhilan said worriedly, "Luo Cheng, they have a Tongxuan Realm expert among them..."
Chen Lingyu also said, "Junior Brother, we should go to find the master first. If he steps in, these people will definitely be punished."
Luo Cheng glanced at Gu Lingfeng, his eyes cold, sharpness revealed.
"Senior Sister, you don’t need to persuade me anymore! If I don’t dare to seek revenge when a friend is humiliated like this, why should I practice martial arts? Why practice the sword?"
"My sword follows my heart! This matter started because of me, so naturally, I have to end it myself!"
Boom!
As Luo Cheng’s words fell, a majestic sword force erupted from him, rising continuously, causing the leaves and branches of the whole forest to sway!
The raging fury, combined with an unyielding will, made Luo Cheng’s Sword Dao Realm incredibly refined, breaking past previous limits!
Chen Lingyu’s beautiful eyes widened, her small mouth open, incredulous.
"This is... Sword Heart Perfection!"
At this moment, she finally understood why the master had said that if Luo Cheng awakened a normal Martial Soul, he would be an unparalleled genius!
Sword Heart Perfection!
This is a realm that many Awakening Vein Realm swordsmen find hard to achieve!
Luo Cheng is only in the Transcendence Realm of cultivation!
Leaving with one last sentence, Luo Cheng turned and walked out of the forest.
Chen Lingyu came to her senses and said to Yuan Zhilan, "Junior Sister Yuan, I’ll leave this to you!"
Swish!
Switching her steps, Chen Lingyu hurriedly followed after him.
Jade Bamboo Peak!
This is the peak where the Outer Sect disciples reside, named after the large expanses of cold jade bamboo.
In a luxurious courtyard halfway up the mountain.
Cheng Lin and four others sat around a stone table full of delicious food, chatting and laughing.
An Outer Disciple laughed, "That Gu Lingfeng really is tough, didn’t yield till the end! Just cursing Luo Cheng would have been enough, but he chose to suffer. This time, he won’t get out of bed for at least a month or two."
Cheng Lin hated Luo Cheng with a passion, giving a cold snort, "Knowing well that Luo Cheng and our Crown Prince Hall are at odds, yet he dares to ally with him, he must have a death wish! This time we just gave a minor punishment, if he dares to remain obstinate, he’ll suffer more!"
Someone said, "Do you all think, in a half month, how many moves will it take for Brother Yan Qi to kill Luo Cheng?"
"I think, within ten moves!"
Hearing this, Cheng Lin showed disdain, "Ten moves? Junior Brother Li, you’re overestimating this waste too much! What realm is Brother Yan in? What realm is this waste in? Within three moves, Luo Cheng will surely die!"
The tall and large Ren Qian laughed, "Indeed. Even mastering the Golden Body Realm doesn’t mean much, it just means a stronger physique, a bit more power."
"Ultimately, strength lies in cultivation realm, not in comprehension or accomplishments. With ten moves, I could beat him to death!"
Ren Qian looked proud, full of confidence.
He hadn’t personally seen Luo Cheng’s fight with Jiang Xinglie, just heard about it.
Regarding Luo Cheng’s one-punch defeat of Jiang Xinglie, Ren Qian saw it with disdain, unconcerned.
In his view, Jiang Xinglie only broke through on the battlefield and couldn’t be considered a true Tongxuan Realm martial artist.
And he is already in the Tongxuan Realm First Layer, Middle Stage!
"Of course! If Brother Ren strikes, there’s no need for ten moves, one move is enough to make that kid unable to crawl up." Someone complimented.
Hearing this, Ren Qian was highly pleased, laughing, "If not for Brother Yan’s prior agreement with this kid, I’d have taught him a lesson myself! Teach him how to behave!"
Cheng Lin said, "Forget it, why talk about that loser, he’ll be a dead man in half a month anyway! Come! Let’s drink!"
The five drank merrily, chatting and laughing.
Just at this moment.
Boom!
A loud crash sounded as the gate of the courtyard shattered open, the whole courtyard filled with flying sand and stones.
"What’s happening!"
"Who!"
The five were shocked, all stood up, looking towards the gate direction.
Amidst the flying debris, a figure slowly walked in.
The newcomer wore a cloud-white long robe, had a well-proportioned figure, with a Treasure Sword at his waist, and his gaze, calm and unruffled, conveyed a sense of sharpness!
"Luo Cheng!"
Recognizing the newcomer, Cheng Lin was startled, almost falling to the ground in fright.
But seeing Ren Qian and the others beside him, he immediately calmed down and shouted harshly:
"Waste! What do you want? This is not a place where you can act wild!"
Luo Cheng stopped in the courtyard, glancing at Cheng Lin.
"It really is you! Seems yesterday’s lesson wasn’t enough. Very well, today I’ll knock out the rest of your teeth."
"You!"
Cheng Lin’s face flushed, glaring at Luo Cheng, gritting his teeth.
"So you’re that Luo Cheng?"
Ren Qian finally confirmed Luo Cheng’s identity, immediately sneering, "In half a month, it’ll be your life-or-death duel day with Brother Yan. Instead of hiding to train, you’re here causing trouble, do you find your life too long?"
Luo Cheng gave him a glance, seeing just a Tongxuan Realm First Layer Middle Stage martial artist, feeling disdain, he said coldly:
"Whether my life is long or short is not for you to decide. Speak! Who hurt Gu Lingfeng?"
Luo Cheng’s gaze swept over the five.
Seeing no one speak, Luo Cheng couldn’t help but sneer, "So all of you were involved, then?"
Cheng Lin couldn’t hold back, angrily yelled, "So what if we were! Allying with you means being against our Crown Prince Hall! Such audacity!"
"A mere Outer Disciple, isn’t it up to us to kill or let live in front of our Crown Prince Hall! The same goes for you, Brother Yan Qi will surely kill you!"
Luo Cheng’s eyes narrowed, a vicious aura erupted:
"So, you’re saying it’s up to you to kill or let live! Let’s see who will have the say in killing or letting live today!"
