Chapter: 793 (1/2)

AST 793 – Ruthlessness Is the Mark of A Great Man

A dense layer of perspiration broke out on the face of that old man. Qing Shui’s words were light and explosive thunder, ringing in his heart. People who could reach his level were all of great intelligence but sometimes, a momentary weakness of the heart could cause their consciousness to waver and thus they would subconsciously shrink back in face of trouble, especially when they were unable to break through the trouble. Just like what the clan Baima Aristocrat Clan were up against.

They had only thought of staying in Greencloud Continent as they felt that it was very hard to return back to Huayang City. Their sense of superiority that they felt while they were staying here caused them to be restless again. They felt that they must let other people sense how exceptional their clan was in a weak place like this.

Now, being verbally shot down by Qing Shui caused him to feel great fury and he glared at Qing Shui.

“3rd Brother, don’t talk crap with them. Those who kill people from our Baima Aristocrat Clan must pay the price for it.” A burly looking old man next to the elegant old man saw how the latter had been showing his weakness time and time again and could not help but speak. Moreover, when they came over, the clan head had instructed them that although they needed to get the facts straight, they must get back Baima Aristocrat Clan’s pride.

To be honest, none of them believed that a young man had wiped out Zuoshi Clan single-handedly. They suspected that Heavenly Palace might have received other help and the reason they’ve dropped by so many times was so that they could find out what the level of the people supporting them was.

Back then, the fact that they could drive Zuoshi Clan away showed that their abilities were much stronger than Zuoshi Clan. Therefore, they were not really scared of the “powers” behind Qing Shui. However, they still wanted to understand the situation, since knowing the enemies well provided higher chances of victory. A big clan like theirs could not afford any little mistakes, which was why the elegant looking man had put down his pride like this.

“You guys can actually do whatever you want to do but why are you finding such a ridiculous excuse for yourselves? Could it be that you guys are also thinking that this is something that you shouldn’t be doing?” Qing Shui smiled and look at them. From the start to now, there had been no change to his expression.

“Hongchang, don’t be spouting rubbish.” The elegant looking old man said to the burly looking one.

Before they understood all the trump cards the other party had, they should not be going all out recklessly. Moreover, the other party was still wearing a confident expression. The old man could feel the confidence Qing Shui had through his observations, which was why he chose to take a step back once again.

“Let me say one more thing today. Your Baima Aristocrat Clan can’t make it. Don’t be infuriated, I don’t wish to kill anyone. Go back and tell your clan head not to joke around with the lives of an entire clan.” Qing Shui looked at the elegant looking old man and said. He was now very sure that this old man was the leader in this group.

“3rd Grandpa, you’ve been given a scare by this lad. Could it be that you feel that he is stronger than you?” Just then, the young man in the middle spoke out slowly but his gaze was still fixed on Qing Shui.

The old man didn’t say anything. He had the feeling that the young man they were facing was far from a match for him but yet, he kept having the feeling that there was a beast hidden in Qing Shui’s body.

“Could you let us visit that strong expert?” The old man said softly.

“It’s not convenient. If there’s no other matter, please return. Remember what I’ve said.” Qing Shui knew that the ‘strong expert’ they were referring to was the one who had wiped out Zuoshi Clan.

“3rd Brother, I think there’s no strong expert at all. We aren’t even sure if Zuoshi Clan was wiped out by this lad.” Baima Hongchang frowned and spoke out again.

“No matter who was the one to do it, they’re still related to Heavenly Palace.” The elegant looking old man frowned and said.

“Then 3rd Brother is thinking of leaving just like this? After waiting for so long, we’re leaving when he has appeared? Are we not going to do what the clan head had instructed us to do?” Baima Hongchang looked at the other old man and said.

“It might be because I’m old now but I feel that we shouldn’t be fighting him. We have no grievances against him. As for reputation, it’s something we can do without.”

“Then we’re going to leave it just like that when Tongyuan has been killed by them? Many people have seen what our Baima Aristocrat Clan has done.” Baima Hongchang looked at the elegant looking old man and shouted. Even the rest of the people were looking at the latter.

“Tongyuan was always one with a bad conduct. He deserved it.” THe old man sighed and said.

“3rd Brother, that’s my grandson, my grandson! He’s been killed, a member of our Baima Aristocrat Clan has been killed! Didn’t he merely tease a lady? I want her to go accompany Tongyuan in his death!” Baima Hongchang bellowed, appearing to be extremely agitated.

In the end, he suddenly thought of pouncing toward Luan Luan.

“You’re courting death!”

With a low bellow, Qing Shui stepped to stand in front of Luan Luan. The Thunder God and Big Dipper Sword which he had prepared earlier were now in his hands and Baima Hongchang’s hammer was already right in front of Qing Shui.

Ding!

The Thunder God blocked the hammer while his Fiery Golden Eyes and Emperor’s Qi had hit the opponent before the hammer had come. He then unleashed Sword of the Sixth Wave with his Big Dipper Sword.

Since he had attacked, he’d not show leniency.

Baima Hongchang was merely at three stars after he had been weakened. The difference between Qing Shui’s Sword of Sixth Wave was a whole of difference with his Sword of Fifth Wave and against opponents of a similar level to him, it was basically an instant kill.

Boom boom boom…

Qing Shui was at three stars to begin with but with the Sword of Sixth Wave, Baima Hongchang was sent flying by Qing Shui’s impact. Spewing out fresh blood and staring with wide-opened eyes, he died just like that, his internal organs entirely shattered.

This was how domineering Wave Essence was. Opponents of a similar level would be killed instantaneously.

Everyone was shocked to see a cultivator of four star level being killed instantly. The old man had not expected the outcome to be like this. He had wanted to stop Baima Hongchang but then again, he also wanted to see the abilities of this young Patriarch from the Heavenly Palace.
