Chapter 423: Dont throw away your life (1/2)

'Senior brother Qiong' couldn't believe that 2 peak rank 3 Nascent Soul experts had died under the hands of an early rank 1 Nascent Soul stage rookie, let alone with both of them being completely incapable of even putting up a fight.

They didn't even have enough time to resist before they were both killed in an instant.

Even for a genius like 'senior brother Qiong' who was one of the 3 strongest people in this alliance of disciples that attacked this city, this was still a shocking scene that couldn't be explained.

Of course, although it was true that the black-robed old man had most likely underestimated Shun Long while the black-robed woman was actually fleeing, the result was that they both died in a head-on fight.

In the end, they weren't even able to struggle before they were killed.

This was especially so for the black-robed woman's death. Before 'senior brother Qiong' even had enough time to escape from her sandstorm, Shun Long had already taken her life.

For 'senior brother Qiong' who had already suffered under the 2 peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivators combined attacks earlier, seeing them getting both killed by an early rank 1 Nascent Soul stage cultivator one after the other made him shiver in his heart.

And yet, this wasn't something that he could accept so easily.

No matter what, he himself was a genius who would certainly pass the Holy sect's test! He was a peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage cultivator! How could he allow anyone else to obtain the Holy sect's token in front of his eyes? Let alone an early rank 1 Nascent Soul stage cultivator, he would even fight with other peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage geniuses if he had to.

Completely oblivious to the golden-robed young man's thoughts, Shun Long who was now standing in front of the black-robed old woman's body, waved his hand and removed her spatial ring.

However, after checking the ring's contents, he immediately turned his attention towards the black-robed woman's corpse in front of him that was split in 2 halves.

Aside from 10.000 middle-grade spirit stones and a few middle-grade rank 5 'Qi replenishing pills' as well as some healing and several 'anti toxin' pills, the black-robed woman's spatial ring didn't have anything else.

That meant that the Holy sect's token was either on her body or it was hidden somewhere else.

At that moment, Shun Long closed his eyes before his soul sense erupted like a volcano as it completely covered the woman's body.

As he opened his eyes, Shun Long stared at the bottom half of the black-robed woman's body as he mumbled to himself

''There is actually something hidden here!''

Waving his right hand, Shun Long used the black, star-rank sword, to slice open a small hole near the black-robed woman's butt as a palm-sized, golden-colored token with the character 'Holy' slowly revealed itself in front of Shun Long.

The moment that Shun Long was about to touch the Holy sect's token however, he could feel an intense feeling of danger sprouting in his heart, while his golden eyes lit up with a bright azure light.

Another scene appeared in his eyes, causing Shun Long to give up on picking up the Holy sect's token before he immediately dodged to the side without any hesitation.

Almost at the same time that he dodged, a huge flame pillar struck the spot that he was standing on, immediately enveloping the black-robed woman's corpse as well as the Holy sect's token.

As the flame pillar slowly dissipated, Shun Long saw the golden-robed young man, 'senior brother Qiong' standing a few meters away from him, staring at the Holy sect's token on the ground with a look of fervor in his eyes, before he slowly turned his attention back to Shun Long.

There was a serious look in the peak rank 3 Nascent Soul stage expert's eyes as he stared at Shun Long, looking like he was staring at another powerful peak rank 3 Nascent Soul cultivator instead of an early rank 1 Nascent Soul rookie.

Shaking his head, 'senior brother Qiong' took a deep breath before he said with a serious look in his eyes

''Don't try and touch that token again or the next time it won't just be a warning attack.''

Hearing 'senior brother Qiong's' words, Shun Long stared at the peak rank 3 Nascent Soul expert in front of him without any change in his emotions.

He had already expected that there was no way for the 'golden-robed young man' to give up on the Holy sect's token so easily!
