1279 Xu Que’s Father Is So Powerful! (1/2)

”Hah...” Yi Zhong smiled as if his conspiratorial ideas had been realized.

The rest of the sovereigns and their guardians and apprentices shook their heads speechlessly. They had figured out that Yi Zhong just wanted to find an excuse to kill this old man. It was a pity that this old man was really annoyed and even seemed to want to fight Yi Zhong. What he was about to do was to seek his death!

As a candidate for the Divine Farmer Clan's Holy Son, Yi Zhong was quite powerful. Even though he had said he would fight at the level of the Half-Celestial Stage, he could kill a frail old man easily. They believed Yi Zhong would win this fight unless a miracle occurred.

”Elder Xu, it is not up to you to make this decision! You must leave here!” Bai Cailing refused Xu Que's wish directly. She knew this old man, who was good at a lot of secret magic arts, was still only a cultivator at the Half-Celestial Stage! Even though Yi Zhong would fight at the level of the Half-Celestial Stage, Elder Xu would never rival him because Elder Xu's strength was too low—although he was good at magic arts! And most of Yi Zhong's magic arts were offensive and very powerful. They were going to be in a competition to decide who was better at fighting and killing. Even though Elder Xu knew how to revive peach trees and dispel the morbid Qi, his magic arts would be useless in a duel!

”Enough! I am the master of my destiny! Today I will fight for my dignity! So I will take part in this fight even though I might die here!” Xu Que said as he stepped out and stood in front of Yi Zhong and waved his cane toward him. ”Come here!” Xu Que shouted as he gathered Qi in his Dantian.

”Humph! Old fart, I will change my name if I can't tear you into pieces!” Yi Zhong snorted. Then, before Bai Cailing could have time to stop him, he took out a black halberd and smashed down abruptly!

Rumble!

The black halberd, which tore the void open, smashed down toward Xu Que's head with dazzling lightning and horrible pressure.

”Oh, no! He is using an Inferior Celestial Artifact!” A guardian of the Jade Lake who was at the Golden Celestial Stage shouted in surprise. Bai Cailing was totally annoyed. Although Yi Zhong was fighting at the level of the Half-Celestial Stage, he had chosen to fight with an Inferior Celestial Artifact, which meant he was determined to kill Xu Que!

The rest of the sovereigns in this area were not surprised because they knew Yi Zhong would definitely win this fight. Even if he didn't use the Inferior Celestial Artifact, they still believed he would win. Now he would end this fight more quickly by using the Inferior Celestial Artifact!

Crack!

The black halberd came out of the void along with dazzling lightning and deafening thunder. The next moment, it was just above Xu Que's head. Xu Que's old body looked so frail under that black halberd. It seemed as if he had been totally shocked by Yi Zhong's attack so that he was not able to dodge the attack and could only protect his head with his arm.

Boom!

Along with a deafening sound, the black halberd landed on his arm heavily. Everyone could see clearly that the black halberd had hit Xu Que's arm!

The next moment, the scene that showed Xu Que's body smashed that was expected by everyone didn't appear. On the contrary, Yi Zhong was knocked back together with his black halberd. Many wounds could be seen on his hands. Then he fell to the ground and turned pale from terror. The old man was still standing there with his cane in his hand, while he placed his other hand behind his back. He was as calm as a secluded expert. His old eyes were filled with indifference. Then he said as he shook his head and looked at Yi Zhong, who was lying on the ground, ”You are too weak!”
