Chapter 272: Not Even a Move! (2/2)
“This is impossible. I’m certain you are all bluffing. Why would Wu Shang do such a thing for a Spiritual Artifact?” Wu Ming retorted angrily.
“Why are you so stirred up? Besides, I feel that for your Shushan to do this, there should be a reason for that. After all, all of you are philanthropists. For these spiritual artifacts to be in others’ hands, it would cause lots of troubles. So, in order to prevent any troubles and to bring those who found the spiritual artifacts a quick death, you guys decided to be benevolent and took things in your hand. I believe once Tianshan’s Sect Master were to hear of this, he will definitely understand the efforts of your Shushan Sect. Perhaps, he might even pay a visit to your sect to offer his thanks and even give you guys a gratifying present?” Cheng Yu replied hurriedly. Wu Ming’s expression gradually became more and more ugly. Huaxian Valley females giggled again. This Cheng Yu was truly daring. But Ning Yan and Ning Wushuang were worrying for Cheng Yu. Him doing this meant that he had decided to fall out with Wu Ming thoroughly. Hearing all these giggles, Shushan Sect’s people felt that they had lost all their faces.
“Shut up! You are slandering Shushan. I’m going to kill you!” Hearing all those giggles, Wu Ming could tell those giggles of mockery. He immediately shouted and charged towards Cheng Yu. Just when Wu Ming made his move, Huaxian Valley disciples started to worry for Cheng Yu. Just when everyone was worried about if Cheng Yu could withstand the move from Wu Ming, the next scene caused all of them to be astonished, other than Tian Xue and Tian Xing. The duo had been waiting for a good show to watch. Wu Ming charged towards Cheng Yu. But when Cheng Yu moved, Wu Ming had already been sent flying out.
“Soul artifact!” When Ling Hai saw the sword in Cheng Yu’s hand, Ling Hai cried out in astonishment.
“How is this possible?” Wu Ming stood back up. The corner of his mouth was stained with blood with an expression of confusion displayed on his face. Even if Cheng Yu was using a soul artifact, the disparity between them shouldn’t be so big! Huaxian Valley disciples looked at Cheng Yu with adoration. After such a long period of time, Wu Ming had battled before them countless times. They knew that his fighting power was not any weaker than Ling Hai. Within their alliance, his fighting prowess was one of the best. But with such a simple move from Cheng Yu, Wu Ming had lost. How strong was Cheng Yu? Momentarily, they surrounded Ning Wushuang, and looked at her in envy. Her lover was truly out of the ordinary. Furthermore, he looked so handsome. Looking at his posture, with a soul artifact in his hand and his sword-like eyebrows, what a domineering appearance!
Ning Wushuang’s face reddened after being made fun of by all her senior and junior sisters. When she looked at Cheng Yu, her heart started to quicken.
“I have never liked to look for trouble myself. But I also hate others provoking me. Otherwise, the aftermath is going to be very severe!” Cheng Yu commented icily.
“Hmph! Don’t act so complacently. It’s all because I underestimated you. So what if you have a soul artifact? Today, I will let you know the consequences of offending me!” Wu Ming was a veteran when it came to fighting. He would never be intimidated by just a move from Cheng Yu.
“Very good! Then try withstanding this move from me! Primeval Chaos Stab!” Cheng Yu shouted. With a leap, he slashed towards Wu Ming. According to Cheng Yu’s current strength, a Golden Core initial stage cultivator was nothing to him. Furthermore, Primeval Chaos Stab was two times stronger than an ordinary attack. It was sufficient to make Wu Ming suffer. However, Wu Ming was not able to tell the hidden power within the move. He did not seem to care much about the attack because he felt that he was able to perform such simple attack himself.
“Red-Flame Chop!” Wu Ming slashed out as well. When both the sword reflections collided with each other, Wu Ming’s Red-Flame Chop was instantly destroyed. Wu Ming quickly reacted, placing himself in a defensive position as he placed his sword before him and blocked the attack. However, he was still sent flying by the attack. A mouthful of blood flew out from his mouth as he fell to the ground heavily.
“This…” Everyone was stunned. They had all witnessed the prowess of Wu Ming’s Red-Flame Chop before. The prowess was out of the ordinary. But they had never expected that it couldn’t even last a move against Cheng Yu.

“How is this possible? He’s clearly in the Golden Core initial stage. Why is his strength so powerful?” Wu Ming was shocked. Although Wu Ming’s strength was outstanding, the disparity between it and the Golden Core middle stage was quite a distance away. Meanwhile, Cheng Yu’s strength was not any lesser than the Golden Core late stage. How could Wu Ming possibly defend against it?
“I’m not killing you today. Tell your Shushan Sect to not provoke me. Otherwise, I will kill every one of your people within my sights!” Cheng Yu stored his Purple Light Sword away as he commanded Wu Ming icily. Although he didn’t have a good impression of Shushan Sect, he did not have any enmity towards Wu Ming. Thus, there was no need to exterminate him. At least the current Cheng Yu had yet to have this resolution to kill him. Cheng Yu turned around, glancing at Ling Hai. How could he not tell the provocation previously was being made from Ling Hai? However, he didn’t comment on it. Lending someone else’s strength to kill others, he had also done it before.
But after being glanced by Cheng Yu, Ling Hai’s heart shivered. Cheng Yu’s prowess had exceeded his imagination by too much. Ling Hai’s strength was equal to Wu Ming. But even Wu Ming was like an ant to him. Ling Hai did not dare to provoke Cheng Yu any longer.
“Let’s go!” Cheng Yu spoke to Tian Xue and Tian Xing.
“Oi! Cheng Yu!” Seeing Cheng Yu was about to go, Ning Wushuang shouted out.
“What’s the matter, small steamed bun?” Cheng Yu inquired with a smile.
