Chapter Thirty-Six: Abandoning Darkness and Turning to Light

  "Cut!"

  The whip's shadow was heavy, and even the opposite person's shadow couldn't be seen clearly. However, Xia Qi didn't show any fear or hesitation. With a loud shout, the sharp sword in his hand directly slashed down, extremely overbearing and tyrannical!

  "You're just at the 9th level of Qi Refining, yet you're so arrogant. Today, we will definitely behead you and use your head to apologize to our young master!"

  Xia Qi's current situation was seen by two besieged monks, who sneered and thought Xia Qi had panicked and didn't know how to fight back, only knowing how to slash horizontally and vertically.

  "Bang! Bang! Bang!..."

  However, the arrogant voice had just fallen when a string of piercing explosions shook the two monks' ears buzzing, and then the long whip in their hands was actually shattered inch by inch under the sword's chopping!

  "You're dead! No mercy for you!"

  Before he could even finish speaking, the long whip in his hand was cut off, and he himself retreated repeatedly. The two Qi Refining stage 10th layer cultivators were thoroughly enraged, shouting loudly, and a true treasure appeared in their hands!

  One hand held a sharp sword, the sword was blood red, as if stained with fresh blood, very eerie, with a hint of murderous intent, locked onto Xia Qi! Another person still had a long whip, but it was just a white bone whip.

  Two pieces of magic treasures, only slightly inferior to Xia Qi's Autumn Water Sword, are both high-ranking yellow-grade magic treasures, extremely powerful!

  "Come again! You two canine slaves, even if you have a top-grade treasure today, I'm not afraid of you!"

  Xia Qihao's imposing aura shook the clouds, and with a loud shout, he launched a proactive attack. Still wielding that sharp sword, his ferocious power surged forth, and the sword slashed horizontally and vertically. Two cultivators at the 10th level of Qi Refining unexpectedly retreated in succession!

  "Right!"

  The sharp sword and the white bone whip collided, a powerful force sent the white bone whip flying, and the cultivator holding the white bone whip also retreated repeatedly, his face full of shock!

  Bang!

  Turning around, the sharp sword didn't even glance at it, and with one sweep of the sword, it collided with a blood-stained sword, just like that white bone whip, the blood-stained sword was directly swept away by Xia Qi!

  Two loud crashes, Xia Qi took the upper hand, ferocious and overbearing, it simply didn't look like a cultivator in the Qi Refining stage, but more like a human-shaped violent dragon, with an overwhelming aura!

  "Die for me, you dog!"

  The sword in his hand had already broken open two gaps, but Xia Qi was not at all concerned. Taking advantage of the situation, he showed no mercy to the two retreating figures, striking them down like a ghost!

  "Hmph!"

  A blood splash suddenly appeared, and a mournful cry suddenly rang out. The cultivator holding the white bone whip had already flown up with one arm, covering his bleeding shoulder, and let out a painful roar as he rolled around on the ground!

  "You... you actually dare to physically harm someone?"

  Another monk, shocked to the extreme! He seemed unable to believe that someone had actually cut off an arm in broad daylight in the Linshui Mountains, where he had always relied on the young master's prestige to act with impunity.

  And this person is even someone who is at a lower level than myself!

  Watching his companion's downfall, the remaining monk, holding a blood-stained sword, had already developed a sense of fear in his heart, and he retreated repeatedly, as if seeking support.

  "Get out!"

  Xia Qi burst into a violent rage, although he didn't dare to kill people in the city, but towards his enemies, he showed no mercy at all. His sharp sword chopped down swiftly and mercilessly, only to see a flash of light, another arm flew up into the air, accompanied by a shrill and mournful cry!

  Xia Qi turned his head, but saw that the slightly chubby young man on the other side had already ended his fight and was watching Xia Qi's battle with interest. Seeing Xia Qi end the fight cleanly, he even applauded casually as if no one was around!

  The young master riding on the dragon horse also applauded!

  The atmosphere was eerie, but Xia Qi's face remained calm and collected. He gazed coldly at the young master on Dragon Horse's back, while ignoring the wailing cultivator on the ground with a look of indifference.

  In fact, Xia Qi's heart was not calm at all, his heart was extremely shocked!

  That slightly chubby young man, with a foolish appearance, seemed to be unaware of worldly affairs. However, just now during Xia Qi's battle, he was observing the fight and was ruthless beyond compare. With one large knife, shining golden light, its power boundless, in an instant, he had already severed the right legs of two cultivators, ending the battle cleanly and efficiently!

  On the surface, this young man with a thick face and a yellow robe looks like he has a cultivation equivalent to Xia Qi's, both being at the 9th layer of the Refining Qi stage. However, judging from his moves, his actual strength far surpasses what it seems on the surface, unfortunately, there is no sign that he is hiding his true cultivation level.

  Similarly, in the eyes of others, Xia Qi also seemed like that simple and honest young man in yellow robes, whose actual strength far surpassed his appearance. Facing a cultivator who was one level higher than himself, and was even twice as strong, he could end the battle without a single injury!

  Although it can be said that the four monks all had a tendency to underestimate their opponents, but to end the fight so cleanly and quickly, Xia Qi and this sturdy young man in yellow robes, how could they be ordinary?

  "Good swordsmanship, fellow Taoist!"

  I don't know if it's really stupid or what, but Xia Qi's swordsmanship is horizontal and vertical, extremely brutal, like using a big knife and an axe to open the mountain, but the foolish yellow-robed youth is solemnly congratulating Xia Qi.

  "This Taoist friend is indeed profound and unfathomable!"

  Xia Qi looked at the young man in yellow robe with a silly expression, speechless, and didn't know how he had the face to praise his swordsmanship as good swordsmanship under everyone's watchful eyes. However, out of politeness and their common enemy at the moment, he also politely responded with a sentence.

  "Hehe......"

  What made Xia Qi even more speechless was that when he politely said a sentence, the young man in yellow robe actually smiled with a thick and embarrassed face, as if he had been seen through. The surrounding cultivators almost rolled their eyes!

  "This fatty's face is really..."

  Xia Qi was speechless for a moment, he couldn't believe that the ruthless and merciless young man in yellow robe, was as pure as his silly expression suggested. The look just now, was enough to prove that his face was thick-skinned to a certain extent.

  "Great! Great! You two are great!"

  Xia Qi and the young man in yellow robe were being polite, when the youngster riding on the dragon horse in front stopped clapping and surprisingly opened his mouth with a smile, leaving Xia Qi and the young man in yellow robe stunned.

  "This guy's brain must have been kicked bad, can't take this kind of stimulation, and has actually become an idiot!"

  Xia Qi and Huang Pao's minds flashed with the same thought, looking at the so-called young master on the dragon horse with a pitiful face, full of sympathetic expressions. Four subordinates were abolished by others, and he actually opened his mouth to call it good?

  "You're quite good! Just now, you've offended me, Young Master Ben, and ruined my four slaves. Originally, people like you, even if cut into a thousand pieces or sliced into ten thousand strips, it's not enough to vent my anger. However, I, Young Master Ben, have a broad heart and can let bygones be bygones regarding all this. As long as you're willing to abandon your evil ways and surrender to me, kneel down and kowtow to admit your mistakes, from now on become my two loyal dog slaves, today's matter, I can take charge and consider it settled!" The self-proclaimed Young Master, a young man riding a dragon horse, spoke with an arrogant face.
