Chapter 248: I Shall Let You Act Tough!
Pu!
Everyone around almost spat out a mouthful of blood.
Damn it! Eight cities in exchange for your single life, yet that's not enough?
There are only fifty cities in the entire Fire Nation big brother. What are you unhappy about?
You sound extremely unreasonable right now. Threatening to make the eighteen generations of Fire Emperors strip naked and dance? Do you have to be so evil?
"Outrageous! Would you dare?" The Fire Emperor within the throne room couldn't hold it in any longer and roared out in fury.
Xu Que laughed coldly, "Dog Emperor, watch and see if I dare to. Not only would I make them strip naked and dance, I would also make them eat their own shit while they're naked!" As he finished, he whipped out the Spirit Prison Pagoda and shook the chains, causing all eighteen spirits to freeze.
"Junior, come on down! I am already old and it's not easy for me to run up and down!" At this point, the Killer God of Tiansha finally made a move.
He waved his hands and a massive sea of flames appeared in the skies.
With a loud roar, the entire sea of fire coalesced into a fiery palm, which obscured the sky from view. The fiery palm then soared towards Xu Que.
"Hssss!" The crowd sucked in a breath of cold air as their pupils opened wide in shock.
This Fire God was too powerful! All he had to do was wave his hands to conjure such a powerful spell.
After the sea of flames had transformed into a palm, terrifying power emanated out from it, causing everyone to feel extremely fearful.
"Fuck! Old thing, what are you trying to do?" Xu Que's eyes were opened in shock. At this point, he forgot about making the eighteen spirits dance naked. With a flip of his hands, he retrieved the Dark Buster Sword and Killer Sword from his inventory!
Under such a powerful opponent, Xu Que knew that he must not underestimate him. With his Killer Sword at Full Glory, he raised his Dark Buster Sword and charged towards the fiery palm.
Flame Devouring Wave!
"Boom!"
Formless waves of air swept outwards from Xu Que's body towards the fiery palms and crashed into it, causing the fiery palm to dissipate into thousands of small, harmless flames before it disappeared into thin air.
"Eh?" The old man was shocked and revealed a look of surprise. He never expected that a lowly junior of the Original Infant Stage would be able to break his spell so easily!
The Water Empress was stumped as well.
This was a spell conjured by a level eight Infant Transformation cultivator. Even though it didn't encompass his entire force with it, the spell was powerful enough to supposedly vanquish him.
And yet it was destroyed just like that. Everyone around who was watching was filled with disbelief.
Every step which Xu Que took had far surpassed the Water Empress' expectations. However, his most powerful spell wasn't even the Flame Devouring Wave!
"Old man, I don't wish to lecture you but you're not putting enough effort into your profession. That's not how an assassin should behave! A true assassin wipes out his foe with a single move. Even your juniors all around know this better than you. They know how to hide and conceal themselves, waiting for an opportune timing to sneak a fatal attack. But you, ai, I am disappointed! You should start practicing to improve!" Xu Que shook his head with a look of disappointment.
The crowd drew their lips into a line and were speechless.
A level eight Infant Transformation Staged cultivator wishes to kill you. Do you really expect him to sneak up on you to kill you in a single stroke?
Big brother, you really think too highly of yourself. Although it's true that you are very powerful, this is the Killer God who had even killed a level nine Infant Transformation cultivator!
If he wished to screw you over, he wouldn't even have to open his eyes to do it, yet you could even find it in you to lecture him?
The old man also shook his head and spoke, "Although your powers are far from average, you won't be able to amount to anything. I've met with people who were more talented and powerful than you. However, they were too complacent and arrogant. Even before they had the chance to grow up, they were killed! Today, you shall have the same ending as them!"
As he finished speaking, the old man swung his walking stick!
"Wng!"
An ear piercing shriek filled the air which came from the old man's walking stick. The loud sound resonated in all directions, causing the eardrums of everyone to hurt.
The crowd seemed to react in fear as they gaped their mouths.
"That's the Killer God's sword! He actually hid it inside his walking stick!"
"In order to kill Xu Que, the Killer God is actually going to reveal his sword!"
"Could it be... that we might have such good fortunes to be able to see the renowned Killer God's Single Stroke?"
Everyone around started screaming out happily. The Killer God's Single Stroke wasn't just a spell. It also meant that the Killer God only needed a single stroke to claim lives!
A single stroke to obtain a person's soul and a single stroke to take a life. Nobody would be able to defend himself successfully!
Even a level nine Infant Transformation Staged cultivator had been a victim of his sword before!
"Xiu!" The sharp sound of blade slicing through the air could be heard. The old man has made another move!
His physical body had vanished from where he stood and not a trace of the old man could be found. Not even the sword which he had drawn was seen by a single person!
The Water Empress was equally shocked. She subconsciously invoked a water spell from the tips of her finger. A large burst of water spouted out and wrapped around Xu Que. Immediately after, the sheet of water froze and became ice, enveloping him from any harm.
At the next moment, the Water Empress' face fell as she shouted out, "Careful!"
As soon as her voice rang out, a damaging ripple of air appeared threateningly behind Xu Que!
The Killer God is here!
The Killer God was an extremely seasoned assassin and could almost read the situation. He had long anticipated that Water Empress would assist Xu Que. After doing the necessary calculations, he slipped through a space in the Water Empress' spell with unimaginable speed and appeared behind Xu Que, ready to kill him.
"Xiu!"
The ringing sound from earlier had dissipated a long time ago. And yet there was the whooshing sound of the Killer God's blade slicing through the air behind Xu Que. The terrifying sound of it was crisp and clear, and everyone heard it.
They didn't even see the old man's shadow but could all guess that Xu Que was doomed.
The Water Empress had an anxious look written across her face. She was very powerful but it was impossible to rescue Xu Que from someone like the Killer God who was equally powerful. She had the will, but there was absolutely no way.
Normal cultivators wouldn't be able to catch a glimpse of the Killer God. However, she was able to see the wisp of white light from the sword, appearing out of this air, aiming straight for Xu Que's neck!
Everything happened in a single moment, not even longer than a breath!
That sword was way too quick!
"Damned retard! I told you to move stealthily and you really listened to me like I'm your grandfather? Do you wish to become my grandson? Hmph! Get lost from your grandpa and eat some shit!"
Right at that second, Xu Que turned around and cursed out as he raised his Dark Buster Sword and hacked down viciously at the air in a swift motion!
"What?" The shocked exclamation of the old man rang out.
At the next moment, a loud crash rang out as though Xu Que's Dark Buster Sword had connected with something.
A black shadow emerged from thin air and fell from the sky towards the ground. It was indeed the Killer God!
"Whoosh!"
Xu Que's pair of black fiery wings moved once as he stepped over his bolts of lightning beneath his feet, soaring downwards to meet the fallen old man. In a blink of an eye, he appeared in front of him and swung his Buster Sword once again.
Thud!
The old man was struck a second time. The impact from the force was so powerful that he was thrown up from the ground and flew a distance away!
"Killer God, huh?" Xu Que appeared where the old man had landed once more. He slapped his Buster Sword once and glared before swinging his sword at the old man in an upward motion.
"You're supposed to be cool, huh?"
The old man flew into the air once again. Yet even before he could land on the ground, Xu Que was already there as he swung his Buster Sword at him once again.
"Thud!"
Another dull crash rang out.
Before anyone could react, the old man was thrown up into the air once again.
"Thud!"
The old man flew high up yet again
"Thud!"
And again!
He was the highly esteemed and widely feared Killer God, but he didn't even have the chance to retaliate. He was being hit around by Xu Que like a golf ball, from one end to another end and back again.
The entire scene was just about Xu Que giving him a thorough thrashing.
While he was doing that, Xu Que was shouting and cursing him!
"I shall let you act tough!"
"Thud!"
"I'll let you act tough again!"
"Thud!"
"Killer God's Single Stroke, huh?!"
"Thud!"
"Your grandfather here has the Troops secret character!"
"Thud!"
...
Down below, everyone had turned quiet.
Everything were in silence.
