Li Wuji did not see any weapons in Qin Wushuang’s hand. Yet, he felt the hot wave of a sword shooting toward him. Panicking, he used the Thunder Wind Blade to counter it.
Dang!
A crispy metal sound!
With no intention to allow him time to evade, Qin Wushuang attacked from left and right. He used the Young Shang Sword on the thumb of his left hand, and the Middle Rushing Sword technique from the middle finger of the right hand. It was as if two dragons were playing with the pearl, and two tigers fighting over the prey, he had intimidated the entire scene instantly through his temperament.
At the moment, the crisscrossing sword Qi had put Li Wuji in dire circumstances!
And once the momentum was lost in an Upper Sky Realm battle, it was only a matter of time before losing.
On the other hand, Qin Wushuang thoroughly understood the methods of battle. In a burst of energy, again, he expended his Qi and exhausted the other party.
After finishing his three moves, Li Wuji’s temperament had already reached an “Exhausted” state. However, Qin Wushuang had just reached a stage where he could initiate an attack through a burst of energy.
It was the stage where the Qi could flourish the most.
Only by killing Li Wuji in a burst of energy at this stage, he could decide the battle. Or else, the two of them would get dragged into a new round of back and forth struggle.
Up until this engagement, Qin Wushuang had completely grasped the upper hand. Thus, how could he be willing to extend the battle needlessly?
He gave a long whistle to increase his temperament with the sound. The Lion’s Roar under his initiation of the Upper Sky Qi, combined with the <Coagulated Sword> technique, its power had increased even more!
After shooting out three rounds of Sword Qi, with a light sneer, the left shoulder of Li Wuji was hit by Qin Wushuang’s Middle Rushing Sword from his right hand. As if slashed by a sharp sword, his entire arm was cut off!
As Li Wuji’s arm fell, blood gushed out. Regardless of Upper or Pre-Sky Realm users, they all had the same flesh and blood body. Once the arm was lost, one would naturally lose most of their combat ability.
Li Wuji shouted loudly, retreated a dozen of steps and screamed: “Hold on!”
Qin Wushuang approached with an evil grin, how could he allow Li Wuji to call for a stop?
“Today, even if you bring one hundred Ji Yin Command Plates, don’t think about escaping from death!” Qin Wushuang did not show any mercy as the tip of both of his hands swung like picking flowers to showcase a roundness in the Sword Qi. Each move he sent out revealed the formidableness of the double-edged sword stage!
This double-edged sword attack was no different from Li Wuji’s Thunder Wind Blade. By itself, it was equal to an extremely ferocious Upper Sky weapon.
Thus, although Li Wuji had not seen any weapon in Qin Wushuang’s hand, he still felt as if tens of thousands of sword was chasing after him with the intention to kill and fell into a difficult situation.
After losing one arm, Li Wuji’s movements had become visibly affected and he was no longer as nimble as he was before.
Each of Qin Wushuang’s attack hit his body.
Pu Chi! Pu Chi!
With crispy cutting sounds, he had taken off Li Wuji’s right arm as well.
Li Wuji gave a long whistle and shouted hysterically: “Qin Wushuang, if you kill me, you will regret it!”
“Regret it?” A trace of malevolence tinted Qin Wushuang’s words.
“When I do things, I never regret! Only you are allowed to kill my entire family, and I cannot kill you? Tell me, what kind of reasoning like this exists in the world?”
Inwardly, Li Wuji felt boundless grievance as he knew today’s matter would be hard to end as he shouted: “If you kill me, my teacher will not let you go! If you anger my teacher, not to mention your Qin, even the entire Bai Yue Country will suffer! My teacher will not withdraw until he had killed millions of you guys!”
Qin Wushuang said coldly: “Even if your teacher could kill a billion people, there is no way for me to forgive you. I will kill you today like the dog that you are, the next day, I will also kill your master like a pig that he is! Your Ji Yin sect deserves to die since you sought to kill my Qin. Even if Old Man Ji Yin does not come himself, I will seek him out myself and kill everyone from the Ji Yin Sect!”
As Li Wuji watched Qin Wushuang’s near crazy expression, he knew that this person’s intention to kill had already been initiated and could not be changed. He could no longer use his words to persuade him.
With a strong desire to seek survival, he shouted: “Mr. Martial Saint, you should know best what kind of temper my teacher has. Hurry and stop Qin Wushuang! Or else the moon would lose its angle and don’t blame me for not reminding you earlier!”
The Martial Saint pondered in thought as he knew Li Wuji did not speak lies of intimidation. As the head disciple of Old Man Ji Yin, if he lost his life in the Bai Yue Country, surely Old Man Ji Yin would cause a great fuss and seek revenge to the Bai Yue Country. At that time, without thinking, it would be an unprecedented blood bath!
When he thought here, he couldn’t help but say: “Wushuang…”
Qin Wushuang was determined in the decision he had to make as he replied: “Mr. Martial Saint, there is no need to persuade me!”
Next, he said in a loud voice: “I’ve already said before the battle between me and Li Wuji, this was the continuation of the hatred between me and the Redwood King. Now, it has only continued on to the Ji Yin Sect. It has nothing to do with anyone else! Thus, it is necessary that I kill Li Wuji!”
When he finished, his hands sped up and kept moving like the sword and each sword stroke landed on all the fatal points on Li Wuji’s body like bullets.
Li Wuji let out agonized screams as his body was instantly filled with holes and blood gushed out in an endless stream. Until his death, he opened his eyes widely that was filled with vicious and evilness.
Apparently, he had died carrying a deep grudge.
“Qin Wushuang… You will regret this!” It was Li Wuji’s final words. However, as the loser, these last words were, in fact, a powerless joke.
When Li Wuji had died, all the mist around him had retreated. Once again, the entire martial ground had returned to its clarity and brightness.
Under the bright sky, Li Wuji’s corpse fell to the ground.
That arrogant elite Upper Sky Realm warrior had actually died like this. In everyone’s mind, they all felt an unusual sense of gratification.
What didn’t the elite warriors of the Upper Sky Realm have? Power from the secular world, the pursuit of the martial arts, they had it all. However, how come they could not think it through and get involved with such meaningless fights? And to waste their lives?
When they thought that Upper Sky warrior had died rather than themselves, these guests felt a subtle feeling inwardly emerge.
Everyone now looked at Qin Wushuang in a completely different light. Today’s Qin Wushuang was no longer that martial arts student who had won first place in the exam, nor was he some mere noble of the Bai Yue Country!
He was an Upper Sky Realm Warrior, someone powerful enough to fight shoulder to shoulder with the Martial Saint!
Overjoyed, Qin Lianshan walked up and looked at the corpse on the ground in disbelief. He felt as if he was in a dream. It was too shocking and a test for their ability to bear.
When Li Wuji had appeared, Qin Lianshan had felt a bad feeling emerge and was worried all this time. Unexpectedly, first, the Martial Saint had come and next, his son had exposed the Redwood King and killed two of his guards.
He did not expect that the next scene was even more extraordinary in which his son had challenged that elite Upper Sky Realm user and won.
And his son was also an Upper Sky elite warrior!
Everything had happened too suddenly. The great turn of events had also caused his mood to fall and rise a few times. This turbulence of the events had exhausted him deeply.
All those guests came up to congratulate them, their voices were filled with respect toward the Upper Sky Realm. Even those flattering and yearning sounded much more genuine.
After all, an elite Upper Sky Realm user deserved any form of their compliments.
On the other hand, the Martial Saint had held his stance because after all, it was not his first time in seeing such a situation.
He called out with a smile: “Wushuang.”
Qin Wushuang looked at this kindly elder and said with an apologetic voice: “Mr. Martial Saint, please forgive me for not listening to your advice and killing Li Wuji.”
The Martial Saint laughed as he did not mind. Then, he said seriously: “Wushuang, now you are also an Upper Sky Realm warrior, there is no need to call me senior. In the secular world, my surname is Qiu. You can call me Brother Qiu, or Big Brother Qiu! Senior or whatever, you shall never call me again.”
“Eh, but…”
“No excuses. It is like this between elite warriors of the Upper Sky Realm. And, since you are part of the Upper Sky, you have enough qualifications to do anything. There is no need to think about my feelings. Whether you kill Li Wuji or not, it’s of your own free will. I shall advise you that, to only consider my standpoint. And you have a personality that would rather break it than go around it. Killing Li Wuji was in line with your type of vigorous temperament. I totally understand!”
Since the Great Martial Saint was understanding of his reasons, it made Qin Wushuang somewhat embarrassed. He opened his mouth and was about to say something.
However, the Martial Saint waved his hand: “Wushuang, don’t be in a hurry to show your courtesy with me. Since you’ve killed Li Wuji, he surely has a lot of excellent goods on him. These are all your goods, spoils of the war!”
Between the Upper Sky Realm warriors, there was an unwritten rule. After the battle, if one party died, then the objects he carried all belonged to the person who had killed him.
And surely, an Upper Sky Realm user would possess some exotic goods. Before any martial artists in the secular world, these things would most likely cause many a fight.
Not to mention the others, if an elite warrior at the Stage Nine had got ahold of Li Wuji’s Upper Sky blade, then he would have the ability to kill other Stage Nine Warriors instantly!
It was the privilege of the Upper Sky Realm. Even the most ordinary thing they carried, it would become a rare treasure when a martial artist of the secular world acquired it!
Hearing the Martial Saint speaking these words, Qin Wushuang went ahead and opened Li Wuji’s travel bag. Surely, he found a few objects.
One technique book of the <Thunder Wind Blade>, one of the <Thunder Palm Of the Sky>, and a simple and unadorned folk remedy plus a few nameless herbs. Just by looking at it, one would know these were precious medicinal herbs and incomparable to any herbs in the secular world.
Besides these goods, of course, Li Wuji’s Upper Sky blade also now belonged to Qin Wushuang. Although Qin Wushuang did not use any blade, for now, he had no plans to give this blade to anyone. After all, it was equivalent in tying a bomb to the martial artists of the secular world if one had got it. It could explode at any time and bring trouble to themselves.
The Martial Saint was a smart guy as he did not ask Qin Wushuang what he had acquired.
On the contrary, Qin Wushuang was uncaring and openly talked about what he had acquired.
The Martial Saint nodded: “Li Wuji’s Upper Sky techniques could not deal with you, and should not be worth much to you. However, any Upper Sky technique is usually worth a lot. Just keep it, you can exchange it in the future if you come across some techniques you need! As for that folk remedy, haha…”
The Martial Saint’s tone was suddenly filled with envy.
“That is some extremely rare goods. Wushuang, I have a favor, could you possibly let me make a copy of this remedy?”
“There is no problem” Qin Wushuang did not felt it was a problem and agreed straightforwardly.
Inwardly, the Martial Saint was deeply moved. This Qin Wushuang had just entered the Upper Sky Realm and did not possess many things. For your information, if any other Upper Sky users had this remedy, most likely they would not let you have it even over their lives!
