Chapter 276 - One Slash, One Kill (1/2)

Li Zihan thought about it carefully. While doing so would have offended Lu Xuan, he would have nonetheless got himself several powerful allies.

He deemed Lu Xuan to be just another one at Celestial Realm, which meant that the other man was less than able to cause any serious trouble.

“You all sure that you wanna side with Young Master Gui then?” Lu Xuan said with a smirk, even though he was facing against three people at Celestial Realm, which was a terrifying lineup more than enough to shake up a small nation.

Yet, Lu Xuan appeared completely unfazed.

“You are correct.” Li Zihan nodded.

“Cut the chatter and let’s see how good you are with a sword. You best be powerful enough. Don’t blame me if you end up dead by my hands otherwise,” Zhu Wuzhi smirked coldly and added. Sword will boiled all around him, making him look like a sword that had been unsheathed.

Young Master Gui came near from somewhere not far away. His eerily cold demonic aura enveloped the entire place. Many young cultivators sensed it right away, feeling as if the temperature of the atmosphere of the entire place dropped by several degrees all of a sudden.

Their level of cultivation meant that they were long immune to conventional heat and cold, yet that feeling of coldness came not from temperature changes, but from his demonic aura.

That was a feeling of cold that struck into a person’s heart.

Boom!

Zhu Wuzhi made his move first. His entire person acted like a sword being drawn from its sheath, gleaming with a threatening sheen as a frightening flash of the sword blasted away.

That flash was incredibly dazzling, drawing an arc in the air and traveled at lightning speed.

Everyone present was shocked, feeling that flash of his sword was terrifyingly dazzling.

That attack was about to hit Lu Xuan before long.

At that moment, he looked as if he had been completely dazed. He appeared like he was unable to react in time at all. The attack then hit him squarely.

All manner of thoughts flashed in the minds of all present in that very instant.

“So that Lu Xuan is just all fluff with no substance then? So he doesn’t actually have what it takes then?”

“Was he completely dazed by that attack? Would he end up being a legend that was ended by just one attack?”

“Damn! Am I witnessing a historical moment today?”

However, before anyone finished running all those thoughts in their heads, Lu Xuan disappeared from where he stood before anyone knew it.

Boom!

Everyone heard nothing more than a rumble. That previous attack ended up destroying over half of the arena’s flooring.

But then again, Lu Xuan was nowhere to be seen, and the scene where he ended up being cut in half did not happen at all.

“Over there!”

Someone exclaimed. Everyone turned their heads around and found Lu Xuan appearing right before Zhu Wuzhi the Sword Specter, before anyone knew what just happened.

Lu Xuan was then seen grabbing at the air before him, conjuring a terrifying bolt of sword aura in his hand, which was then thrown across the air and sliced Zhu Wuzhi’s head off right away.

Zhu Wuzhi’s eyes remained wide opened, completely unable to believe that Lu Xuan was able to go that far with attacks.

He was unable to even react in time. He did not even know since when did Lu Xuan appear right before him.

All martial arts in the world had weaknesses to be exploited, with only superior speed reigned supreme.

He finally realized that concept, yet it was an awakening that cost him his life.

He only realized by then, that the way of the sword that he was so proud of, was probably nothing more than child’s play in Lu Xuan’s eyes.

Lu Xuan turned his eyes at Young Master Gui after cutting down Zhu Wuzhi, which sent shivers running down Young Master Gui’s back. He was just about to attack, when he saw Zhu Wuzhi killed by just a swing of the sword.

“He took only one slash. One slash!”

Young Master Gui was howling in a frenzy deep down. He knew Lu Xuan was powerful, but he had only expected the other man to only be somewhat more powerful than he was. He never expected to see the other man kill Zhu Wuzhi the Sword Specter, with just a single swing of the sword.

It was worth noting that Zhu Wuzhi’s powers were every bit on par with that of Young Master Gui’s.

One could imagine just how greatly that one attack from Lu Xuan moments earlier shocked him.
