Liu Xinhuan was furious, "Why are you being so aggressive? Do you really want to fight to the death with me?" He too became fierce, "If you want me dead, then I will definitely make sure you die too." "Old bastard, do you really want to go down together?" He shouted loudly. Being able to attain the level of Silver Spirit Immortal, he certainly didn’t lack courage and ruthlessness, but as long as there was a sliver of hope, he didn’t want to die. He was the Silver Spirit Immortal. As long as he had a Silver Spirit Immortal Artifact at hand, he could completely turn the tide. Therefore, he was even more unwilling to accept his fate. Shi Hao paid him no mind, only wielding his sword with greater urgency. If you want me dead, then I’ll kill you. Fair. More wounds appeared on Liu Xinhuan’s body. Although his skin was like Silver Spirit Immortal Gold, it would still be wounded in the face of a true Silver Spirit Immortal Artifact, let alone with Shi Hao wielding an Immortal King Artifact whose power was overwhelmingly domineering. He roared fiercely, finally going all out. Fight to the bitter end! Swish, as Shi Hao’s sword slashed down again, he neither dodged nor sidestepped but met it head-on instead. A sinister smile was on his face. Having achieved the prowess of a Silver Spirit Immortal, he had encountered countless hardships and cruelty, certainly filled with a die-hard spirit. Shi Hao certainly wouldn’t dodge either, moving straight up to meet him. "Die!" Liu Xinhuan thrust both hands forward, like twin blades wrapped in Silver Spirit rules, making his hands as sharp as blades, capable of piercing through any Copper Armored Immortal’s body. The Immortal King Artifact struck, the sharp blade being unstoppable, easily tearing into Liu Xinhuan’s body as terrifying thunderous power spread, creating enormous destruction. Liu Xinhuan gritted through the immense pain, continuing to thrust his hands forward. Even if he died, Shi Hao wouldn’t get to live either. Let’s perish together! However, just then, lotuses bloomed on Shi Hao’s body. Liu Xinhuan’s thought didn’t even have time to surface as his hands thrust into the lotuses, but these lotuses possessed astonishing defensive capabilities, making his hands feel like ordinary people trying to wedge through a barrel of rice, progressing with difficulty. He exerted all his strength, pushing forward with his hands. Pop, one lotus immediately shattered, but before Liu Xinhuan could celebrate, another lotus bloomed behind it, still forming a formidable defense. Boom! Boom! Boom! He broke the second lotus, but then a third appeared, and then a fourth. By the time he broke the fifth lotus, his strength was utterly depleted. — The power of the Immortal King Artifact also erupted, causing him terrifying damage. Liu Xinhuan’s eyes widened; did the Silver Spirit Immortal Artifact have such devastating power? According to his assumption, as long as he avoided vital points, even if struck, it shouldn’t be lethal. However, now that he had indeed avoided the vitals, why was a destructive killing intent boiling within, eradicating portions of his body? A thought hadn’t even formed when the might of the Immortal King Artifact struck his Soul Sea. At this moment, he finally "saw" clearly, witnessing a massive thunderstorm surging toward him, an unspeakably terrifying momentum. Absolutely not a Silver Spirit Immortal Artifact? This is... Golden Level, or even Bright Jade Level? Liu Xinhuan couldn’t find the answer, lightning swept through, effortlessly shattering his Soul Sea, his soul instantly annihilated. Pop, his body went limp, collapsing to the ground. Shen Yuexin watched, her little mouth gaping in disbelief. A dignified Silver Spirit Immortal, actually stabbed to death with one strike. No grand explosion, died so quietly that it could even be described as... unremarkable. Silver Spirit Immortal, in Liangjing City, that was the pinnacle of existence. She looked back at Shi Hao, unable to comprehend. How could a genius Formation Dao Master like Shi Hao also be an exceptional martial artist, overturning a strong opponent against the odds—though he borrowed the power of an Immortal Artifact, but even with a high-level Immortal Artifact, could anyone else achieve this? She always looked down on martial artists, considering their fighting too brutal, but Shi Hao’s battle was too impressive, crossing an entire realm in one kill, the battle record too astonishing, too terrifying. She felt her heart beating intensely, not from fear or terror, but from excitement, making her petite body feel slightly warm. "Shen Yuexin, you’re someone’s mother, and that’s an elder there," she quickly admonished herself internally, striving to calm down. Shi Hao searched Liu Xinhuan’s body, then said to Shen Yuexin, "We should withdraw now." "Just leave the corpse here?" Shen Yuexin asked. Thᴇ link to the origɪn of this information rᴇsts ɪn 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⁂𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⁂𝕟𝕖𝕥 Shi Hao smiled slightly, "Just leave it here." Shen Yuexin couldn’t understand, leaving the body here means the Liu Family would quickly learn of Liu Xinhuan’s death. "Look, we are just two Copper Armored Immortals, how could we possibly kill a Silver Spirit Immortal? So this must have nothing to do with us," Shi Hao laughed. Isn’t this just a blatant lie? But upon further thought, Shen Yuexin realized Shi Hao was right. Without witnessing it firsthand, if someone told her a Copper Armored Immortal killed a Silver Spirit Immortal, would she believe it? Even if she rarely focuses on martial arts, dedicating her mind entirely to the Array Path, she wouldn’t lack understanding of the basic iron laws of martial arts. So even a Formation Dao Master like her wouldn’t believe it, let alone someone from the Liu Family? Now leaving Liu Xinhuan’s body here could help clear the Array Master Guild’s relations, letting the Liu Family start doubting if there are other forces eyeing their newly found treasure. The two returned to the Array Master Guild, and regarding Liu Xinhuan’s death, they tacitly remained silent, as if the ambush they experienced midway never happened. After learning the treasure’s value, the entire Array Master Guild was thrilled. This time, they’ve hit big. Just two days later, the Liu Family’s elder sent a catalog containing a list of items found in the treasure, along with value assessments, indicating that the Liu Family would slowly distribute thirty percent of the benefits to the Array Master Guild. Roughly estimated, even if it were just thirty percent, the returns would amount to two million Immortal Stones. The numbers may have some discrepancies, but Shi Hao believed it wouldn’t stray far. Satisfactory, the Liu Family was still fair. As Shi Hao expected, Liu Xinhuan’s death was a massive shock to the Liu Family, but nobody suspected Shi Hao and Shen Yuexin. — Even if someone thought for a moment, they would quickly think themselves too suspicious. Ha ha, how could that be possible? Next, it was about how the Array Master Guild would distribute this wealth internally.
