Chapter 10 : Brutal (2)

The news about Li Qi Ye and Du Yuan Guang’s fight was intentionally spread by the disciples of the Nine Saint Demon Gate; word of this quickly traveled through the whole sect.

Du Yuan Guang possessed considerable influence and popularity within the sect for reaching Provision Palace stage in five years after he was admitted. Here, he was considered a genius; at the current Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect, he would be a genius amongst geniuses.

Even the seniors who heard about this challenge were surprised.

“Challenging Du Yuan Guang?”

“He is the inheriting disciple of Protector Hua. Even though his Golden Wolf Physique has only reached Houtian, it is still a formidable type. What is the current cultivation level of the prime disciple of Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect?”

Some of the disciples who had never heard of Li Qi Ye were quite intrigued.

“Ha, Senior Sheng worries too much! That sect is average at best and without any experts. Their prime disciple is a piece of trash. Mortal Physique, Mortal Life Wheel, and Mortal Fate Palace. He had only joined the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect for two days. He had only practiced martial techniques; even the most elementary merit laws eluded him.”

A disciple mockingly answered.

After hearing this news, the seniors who didn’t know Li Qi Ye before became even more perplexed. A martial artist challenging a cultivator? He must be tired of living!

“This is just like the young deer that’s not scared of a tiger, how sad!”[1]

A lot of the seniors lost their interest because they believed the fight would end after a single move.

Du Yuan Guang only needed one swing and everything would be finished.

This news also reached the ears of a few sectional leaders and protectors. They shook their heads while they contemplated about the implications.

One of the protectors spoke up in an aloof and cold manner.

“Maybe this is a blessing in disguise. Killing one trash isn’t something to be proud about, however, if the idiotic Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect’s juniors wish to challenge us, let this be a lesson.”

This comment caused some protectors and sectional leaders to knit their eyebrows. It was still an Immortal Emperor sect after all. Currently, it still had Emperor level cultivation methods and, more importantly, the inheritance of the Immortal Emperor Min Ren. Everyone has been watching that sect like a hungry tiger, waiting for the right moment to strike.

Realistically, the Nine Saint Demon Gate only had to mobilize their protectors in order to rob the Emperor merit laws, but the current Demon King had never revealed his thoughts about the topic. This caused the upper echelons to remain silent as well. If only the Demon King would give the order, someone would immediately travel and destroy the sect right away, with zero hesitation.

While the upper echelons were still pondering, Li Qi Ye was standing on top of the battle stage. There was quite a crowd gathered for this event. They just wanted to see what kind of torture methods would be employed by Du Yuan Guang.

When Du Yuan Guang stepped onto the battle stage, a disciple loudly yelled:

“Senior Du, use one sword swing to chop off his head!”

Another chimed in:

“One sword strike is too merciful towards him. He dared to insult Senior Li and our sect; you have to flay him piece by piece.”

A senior opened his mouth:

“Death is the only result for insulting our sect. Junior Du, do not rush. Slice off his hands and feet but do not kill him. Wait for the Cleansing Incense Ancient Sect to come and apologize for him. Let the whole Grand Middle Territory, no, even the whole Mortal Emperor World know the consequences of opposing us.”

On the battle stage, Li Qi Ye stared at Du Yuan Guang and teased:

“The Nine Saint Demon Gate’s disciples can only use words? You guys are indeed experts at using your mouths.”

“Idiotic animal, I only need one sword strike to remove your head from your body.”

Cold as ice, Du Yuan Guang lifted his chin and looked down on his opponent.

“If you want to fight then fight, so much time wasted!”

Li Qi Ye casually responded. His left hand griped his blade tightly. He lifted it horizontally and pointed the edge towards Du Yuan Guang and proclaimed:

“Make your move.”

“Die!”
