Chapter 382 - One Slash Was Enough (2/2)

He stood on the Fate Emperor River but did not emanate a powerful aura. In fact, he almost had no aura, just like an ordinary person. He had already integrated with the heavens and the earth.

All eyes were on him.

Zhou Xiaoxuan, Jiang Xue, Xiao Jinghong, and the others were exhilarated.

He really did not die!

The faces of all of Emperor Sword Court’s disciples turned red out of excitement. Each clasped their fists and tried their best to keep their emotions under control.

Zhou Xuanji glanced at the Heavenly Guards before looking toward Xian Xianghua.

“Are you okay?” He asked.

His voice was calm. There wasn’t any emotional turmoil in his voice.

He had seen the dead bodies all around, and they were beyond counting. This was enough for him to know how miserable the battle had been.

Xian Xianghua heaved a sigh of relief. She sat down and replied, “If you still hadn’t come out, then I would be dead for real.”

She could not see through Zhou Xuanji. But the more that was true, the more peaceful she felt.

Zhou Xuanji lifted his head and looked at the Heavenly Guards. He rose slowly as the Sun-Devouring Tiangou Sword appeared in his hand.

Even under the dim sky, cold flashes of light could be seen from his sword.

“You are Zhou Xuanji? Sixth Tribulation Scattered Immortal. Not bad,” Yang Lu said with squinted eyes. Who else could come out from Fate Emperor River other than Zhou Xuanji?

His words surprised those who were still alive.

The Sword Emperor had reached the cultivation of Sixth Tribulation Scattered Immortal?

Everyone in the Northern Wilderness Region knew that Zhou Xuanji’s power could not be measured by cultivation stages. But each time he broke through to new stages, his power grew tremendously.

“But it’s a pity. I’m an Eighth Tribulation Scattered Immortal. Even if you can cross stages in a battle, you will not be able to stand up to me. Now, kneel before me and beg for mercy. I will reconsider your death, depending on your performance,” Yang Lu laughed conceitedly. He did not take Zhou Xuanji seriously at all.

He was a genius too!

He immediately saw that Zhou Xuanji had yet to become a Great Emperor, so he had no fear for him.

Zhou Xuanji stopped in midair and began touching the Sun-Devouring Tiangou Sword. “Although I have yet to become a Great Emperor, I still broke through.”

Zhou Xuanji said, “Do you know what I broke through to?”

Yang Lu smiled with disdain. He thought that Zhou Xuanji was just pretending to be mysterious.

He did not allow his Heavenly Guards to attack because he would deal with Zhou Xuanji himself.

Killing the top cultivator in the world, he would be able to please Spirit Sovereign Yan. When Ji Xian revived, he would surely be greatly rewarded.

“Within three sword moves, if I can’t kill you, I will kill myself here,” Zhou Xuanji looked up at Yang Lu and said casually, but his eyes looked fearsome.

Hearing his words, the Heavenly Guards burst out into loud laughter.

This guy must be crazy?

A Sixth Tribulation Scattered Immortal wants to kill an Eighth Tribulation Scattered Immortal within three moves?

Yang Lu was laughing too, but he was a little alert in his heart. He noticed that all of Emperor Sword Court’s disciples were still looking at Zhou Xuanji fanatically, as though they were on steroids.

Could it be that Zhou Xuanji had some kind of a scheme?

Without any words, he charged toward Zhou Xuanji with his axes.

He moved with extreme speed!

Everyone could not even catch up with their sight, including the 29 Heavenly Guards.

However!

Zhou Xuanji was even faster!

He raised his sword and slashed. The entire process was so fast that no one saw it. It seemed as though he had not moved his hand at all.

A ray of sword light flashed and disappeared instantly.

Yang Lu’s pupils contracted and instinctively wanted to block with his twin axes.

Pshhhh!

His head broke away from his body, rotating and flying off in the air. Blood splattered from along his neck.

The scene froze. Everyone’s jaws dropped.

From their perspective, Yang Lu’s head was chopped off strangely without Zhou Xuanji even moving.

While they were aghast, they were also absolutely terrified.

They had all seen Yang Lu’s prowess. He had shown his power by eliminating more than 90 percent of the human alliance.

Zhou Xuanji came up to Yang Lu with one step and grasped his shoulder. He used the World Internalization and began absorbing his magic energy.

“Sorry, I overestimated you. One sword move is enough.”

Zhou Xuanji stared at Yang Lu’s head and smiled mockingly.
