"Wang Xu, my junior brother!" Everyone exclaimed in shock, unable to believe that Wang Xu could counterattack Han Qing’Er, who was in the Void Chaos Realm! With her neck being strangled, Han Qing’Er struggled to breathe, tears welling in her beautiful eyes as she looked at Wang Xu. Realizing the difference between herself and Wang Xu, she was initially shocked but quickly came to terms with it. Her grip on the longsword weakened, and it clattered to the ground. "Kill me, just kill me. I have lost my purity, living is no better than dying!" Despair flashed in Han Qing’Er’s eyes. She indeed sought death. Wang Xu’s expression remained cold, his grip on Han Qing’Er’s neck unwavering. He had clearly sensed Han Qing’Er’s murderous intent just now. This woman truly had the intent to kill. Wang Xu never showed mercy to those who wanted to kill him, even if it was a woman. Just as when Su You revealed her true intentions in the Heaven-Reaching Pavilion, Wang Xu wiped out her life with a single stroke. Yet, when looking at Han Qing’Er, all of Wang Xu’s ruthlessness seemed unable to rise, the killing intent in his eyes flickering. To kill... or not to kill? Wang Xu was never one to be indecisive, but now his thoughts were indeed wavering, unable to grasp his true inner feelings. "Wang Xu, my junior brother, stop messing around and let go of Han Qing’Er, my senior sister!" Han Wei quickly approached to persuade Wang Xu. He was sweating profusely with anxiety. What was this about? They hadn’t even faced life-and-death danger at Li Long Palace yet, and here they were attacking each other on the road. "Wang Xu, my junior brother, no matter what grudges there are, you must consider the bigger picture. Han Qing’Er, my senior sister, is a disciple of the Star Sect. Although she hasn’t crossed the third threshold, her master is the ’Seven Luminaries Sect Leader’ of the Seven Luminaries Star Sect. If you kill her, it wouldn’t just be you, all of us might not escape disaster!" Nᴇw novel chapters are publɪshed on 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹✶𝗳𝗶𝗿𝗲✶𝗻𝗲𝘁 Han Wei urgently transmitted his voice. The Seven Luminaries Sect Leader was the most mysterious and eccentric among the leaders of the Seven Star Sects, often referred to as the "Old Seven Luminaries." The Old Seven Luminaries was known for his odd temper. Once, a disciple of the Seven Luminaries Star Sect was killed outside, and when the Divine Sect sent people to investigate, they discovered the perpetrator was a great figure from the Venerable Dynasty. The deceased was an ordinary disciple of the Seven Luminaries Star Sect, not an important figure compared to the great figure from the Venerable Dynasty. Naturally, the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect’s stance was not forceful. However, the Old Seven Luminaries, defying the world’s expectations, killed the great figure from the Venerable Dynasty and even inflicted a destructive blow to the entire Venerable Dynasty! Since then, the Old Seven Luminaries’ eccentric temper spread throughout the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect and the entire Red Sun Divine Continent, establishing the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect’s authority. Even the most ordinary disciple of the Star Sect was treated as a distinguished guest outside! Now, Wang Xu intended to kill a disciple favored by the Old Seven Luminaries. Once the Old Seven Luminaries lost his temper, not just Wang Xu, everyone would suffer! Wang Xu naturally knew this piece of history. But he didn’t care in the slightest. No matter who it was, if one harbored murderous intent towards him, Wang Xu would never let them off! "Yes, Wang Xu, my junior brother, Han’s senior brother is right. Don’t make a foolish mistake!" "Wang Xu, my junior brother, show mercy whenever possible!" "Don’t be stubborn, the Old Seven Luminaries won’t spare us!" Everyone was trying to persuade him. Wang Xu shouted coldly, the Primordial Power of the Immortal Chaos Realm spreading out, blasting them all away. Many spat out blood, their gazes towards Wang Xu filled with dread. Han Qing’Er slowly closed her eyes, awaiting death to come. The Pure White Jade Curved Saber manifested in Wang Xu’s hand, its cold light glinting in the sunlight. No one could bear to watch any longer, closing their eyes. A few strands of black hair flew into the air. Han Qing’Er felt the pressure on her neck lighten, her breathing becoming smooth again. She opened her bright beautiful eyes, looking at Wang Xu with a trace of astonishment. "This is the first time, there won’t be a second!" Wang Xu’s words were icy, his hand clenched tightly around the few strands of hair, and when he let go again, they turned to dust invisible to the naked eye. After speaking, Wang Xu turned and walked to the corner of the wooden boat, sitting cross-legged to start cultivation. Upon hearing this, everyone finally opened their eyes, seeing that Han Qing’Er was safe and sound, and simultaneously breathed a sigh of relief. As they looked again at Wang Xu cultivating, their eyes were filled with fear. Han Qing’Er also looked at Wang Xu, biting her lips, her eyes showing a complex look. On the journey, Wang Xu did not speak another word, and everyone feared him, not daring to provoke lightly. "We’ve arrived at the Chuanyi Dynasty." A Star Sect disciple checked the map, then released his Spiritual Sense to explore the surroundings, and was completely certain. "Continue towards the Li Long Palace, without stopping in between." Han Qing’Er gave the orders. The Chuanyi Dynasty is a Great Dynasty, its territory more than a hundred times larger than the Great Dragon Dynasty, and Li Long Palace is close to the Sea of Immeasurable. To reach there, it would still take several days. Suddenly, a loud voice rang out, and a massive stone wall abruptly rose from the ground in front of the wooden boat. Everyone was startled and quickly stopped the wooden boat. Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh... The next moment, dozens of burly men, each with a different build and attire, surrounded the wooden boat. "Haha... after waiting here for several days, it finally paid off!" A burly man with an exceptionally large build stood bare-chested, hoisting a massive wolf fang club, his body fat jiggling like a mountain of flesh. "Senior Sister Han Qing’Er, it’s bandits!" Everyone exclaimed in shock. Among these dozens of bandits, several were in the Mixed Universe Realm, and the leading fleshy mountain was a strong figure of the Void Chaos Realm. Such a lineup of bandits appearing on the only route into the Chuanyi Dynasty... Clearly, these bandits had received some insider information and came prepared. "Last time, those brats from the Great Dynasty got away, but this time, watch them closely. Let none escape; slaughter them all!" The fleshy bandit lifted his wolf fang club, and the bandits all shouted in unison. The disciples turned pale with fright, their bodies trembling. They were all of the Invincible White Hole Level; how could they not be afraid when faced with so many Mixed Universe Realm experts? Suddenly, a tender shout resounded, and Han Qing’Er stepped forward with an icy expression. "Haha... Such a great harvest this time, to find such a stunning beauty. Brothers, keep a close eye on her, let no one slip away, understand?!" The fleshy bandit’s eyes gleamed with lechery, and the other bandits were likewise entranced by Han Qing’Er’s beauty, drooling, nodding repeatedly with greedy, lecherous faces. "Open your dog eyes and look carefully!" Anger rose on Han Qing’Er’s face, obviously enraged by the bandits’ words. With a flip of her hand, a token engraved with the four golden words "Imperial Extreme Divine Sect" appeared. With a push of her palm, the token was imprinted into the air, and the golden characters of the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect expanded instantly, visible clearly even from miles away. "Imperial Extreme Divine Sect?" The fleshy bandit and his men were taken aback, then burst into laughter. "Haha... That’s hilarious, the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect! She actually brought up the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect’s name! So ridiculous, haha..." The bandits laughed uproariously. Han Qing’Er was so angry her breathing became rapid, wishing she could teach these guys a lesson. But she knew that with her strength alone, she could at most kill the Void Chaos Realm bandit leader, and the Star Sect disciples behind her would face slaughter by the other Mixed Universe Realm bandits. Thinking of this, Han Qing’Er couldn’t help but glance at Wang Xu. Wang Xu remained seated cross-legged, calm as water despite the dire situation, unaffected. "Alright, brothers, stop wasting words with them. Imperial Extreme Divine Sect? This is the Qiankun Divine Sect’s territory. Even if the Imperial Extreme Divine Sect’s reach is long, do they dare to pursue across realms?" The fleshy bandit sneered, "Besides, if we kill you all here today, no one will trace it back to us—Imperial Extreme Divine Sect? Pah! Brothers, kill them!" With a wave of the wolf fang club, the bandits charged forward. The longsword in Han Qing’Er’s hand suddenly appeared. Profound Water Technique! A brilliant blue orb floated behind her shoulders, enveloping the longsword in frost and causing the surrounding temperature to plummet. Water Splendor Flowing Cloud! A cold primordial power aura spread out, and as the longsword swung, it carried a stream of water-like white brilliance. Instantly, several Invincible White Hole Level bandits were sliced in half on the spot, dying tragically. "First, kill that accursed one!" Han Qing’Er became the bandit’s prime target; they all came at her, yet despite facing several Initial Mixed Universe Realm and numerous Invincible White Hole Level bandits alone, she suppressed them single-handedly. This power showcased the formidable might of the Star Sect disciples, though not able to compare with inner disciples, their strength wasn’t to be underestimated. Yet, some remaining Invincible White Hole Level bandits targeted the Star Sect disciples behind Han Qing’Er. Although these Star Sect disciples were somewhat timid, each one was a top talent selected among thousands. Their prowess was undeniable, handling bandits numbering twice their own with ease. "Hmm? Who is this guy so calm, what’s his background?" One of the bandits noticed Wang Xu, but his extremely calm demeanor made the bandits hesitate to attack him immediately. "Don’t bother with him for now, it might be a trap. Keep an eye on him always; after I finish the others, I’ll deal with him together with you!" Thus, Wang Xu became an untouched figure in the center of the battlefield, calmly cultivating. The fleshy bandit didn’t enter the fight immediately, standing outside the battle circle. The fleshy bandit noticed Wang Xu, and suspicion arose in his heart. Why was this Invincible White Hole Level so calm? Was this a trap? The more unusual it was, the more it aroused suspicions. As Wang Xu calmly cultivated in the battlefield’s center, his odd behavior drew the attention of many bandits, giving the other Star Sect disciples a sense of confidence. They had witnessed Wang Xu’s strength, which far surpassed that of Senior Sister Han Qing’Er. If he acted, the bandits wouldn’t withstand even a single blow from him. Thus, with Wang Xu present, they were absolutely safe! The fleshy bandit seemed to notice something, ignoring even Han Qing’Er as he charged directly at Wang Xu. His swing of the wolf fang club brought a force that could move mountains, fully unleashing the aura of the Void Chaos Realm, drawing everyone’s gaze. Faced with such a blow, Wang Xu finally opened his eyes slowly in full view of everyone. "Another one seeking death!" (To be continued.
