Destroy the Black Clothes Village (Part 2)

The headless corpse crashed to the ground. This bizarre sword strike terrified everyone.

Even Hu Yidao gasped, as he hadn't seen Li Xinge make any move to draw his sword.

A zero-frame startup, who wouldn't be scared?

He took a deep breath. "Patriarch Li, you've already killed him. Now, can you stop?"

"Stop? Ridiculous! Hu Yidao, now it's your turn!"

Li Xinge chuckled.

"Li Xinge, don't push your luck!"

Hu Yidao could no longer hold back, letting out a muffled roar.

He considered himself a formidable figure, yet he was being pushed to this point by a young man.

However, Hu Yidao's anger seemed like a joke to Li Xinge.

"Kneel, and live. Fight, and die!"

The same words, yet they were exceptionally provocative.

"Do you really think I'm afraid of you!"

Hu Yidao's eyes turned red, and formidable Qi and Blood power spread out from him.

He wielded a blood-red greatsword, his body surging with astonishing fighting spirit.

Hu Yidao struck first.

This saber strike, imbued with overwhelming rage, was an attack as powerful as thunder, aimed directly at Li Xinge.

If it were before Li Xinge's breakthrough, facing Hu Yidao's full-powered assault, he would have had to be extremely vigilant to cope.

But now, Hu Yidao's speed seemed incredibly slow in Li Xinge's eyes.

Li Xinge retreated a few steps, like a dragonfly touching the water, easily dodging Hu Yidao's full-power slash.

Hu Yidao's strike missed, landing on the mountain god stone statue, which was over thirty feet tall, splitting it directly in two!

Dust filled the air, blanketing the entire plaza.

"Hu Yidao, your swordsmanship isn't that great either."

Li Xinge emerged from the dust cloud with his hands behind his back.

Seeing Li Xinge completely unharmed, Hu Yidao looked as if he had seen a ghost.

He exclaimed in shock, "This... how is this possible?"

"You are still too weak."

Li Xinge shook his head.

"You're talking nonsense!!!"

Completely enraged, Hu Yidao attacked Li Xinge again.

His domineering swordsmanship was like a surging tide, each strike fiercer and more dominant than the last.

However, Li Xinge dodged them all with casual ease, as if an adult were playing with a child.

Another strike missed, and the two passed each other.

"Is that all?"

Li Xinge murmured.

Admittedly, Hu Yidao's strength was outstanding among those in the same realm; the First Elder's defeat at his hands was not unjust.

But against him, Hu Yidao was still not enough.

The gap in realms was like the difference between heaven and earth.

"Had enough playing? It's my turn!"

Li Xinge whispered, and an invisible wave of power emanated from him.

Instantly, a fierce wind arose, kicking up sand and stones from the surroundings, which began to spin wildly around him.

The air was filled with an incredibly oppressive whistling sound.

Li Xinge's aura climbed steadily within the vortex, reaching its peak in a short while!

Hu Yidao leaned on his saber, kneeling on one knee, looking at the god-like Li Xinge, panting heavily.

Sensing the despair-inducing, astonishing aura he now possessed.

Hu Yidao suddenly understood, a bitter smile appearing on his lips.

"Hahahaha, Minor Accomplishment of Qi and Blood Realm, is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person? Heavens, why are you so unfair! So unfair!"

Hu Yidao pointed his saber at the sky and roared.

At this moment, he had truly gone mad.

His life had been legendary, from the son of a peasant, he had carved out a path to the heavens with nothing but a greatsword.

He cultivated his body at twenty-one and advanced to Qi and Blood at forty-seven.

He once thought he was a peerless genius.

If not for his humble background, how could that brat have become famous?

But today, the cruelty of reality trampled his pride into the dirt.

He realized that in front of a true genius, he was still just an ant that could be crushed with a single careless step.

"Hu Yidao, I'll give you one more chance. Serve my Li Family, and I can spare your life!"

Hu Yidao's strength was not insignificant, and Li Xinge felt a pang of admiration for his talent.

If he could recruit Hu Yidao and control him through some means, it would add a powerful fighter to the family!

Li Xinge's words brought Hu Yidao back to his senses from his frenzy.

He looked at Li Xinge and grinned, "Li Xinge, in this life of mine, only two things are hard: my dick is hard, and my bones are hard. You want me to be a dog? Impossible!"

His powerful Qi and Blood power began to burn, its scorching heat distorting the very void.

Hu Yidao's aura began to climb at an incredible speed.

At the same time, his appearance began to age visibly.

In a few breaths, his middle-aged image transformed into that of a frail old man.

"Better to die standing than live kneeling!"

Hu Yidao roared, pointing his saber at Li Xinge, his pupils filled with madness.

"You court death!"

After finally showing a moment of kindness, Hu Yidao was so ungrateful as to choose to burn his Qi and Blood power.

Li Xinge was no brain-dead protagonist waiting for him to finish his ultimate move.

Void Cutter was unsheathed, letting out a sword cry.

Li Xinge moved like lightning, and Hu Yidao, seeing this, quickly swung his saber to block.

The two passed each other.

Man and saber shattered, a head flew towards the sky.

Void Cutter returned to its sheath, the blood staining its blade silently swallowed by the metal, as if gaining a touch of sentience.

The mountain-like corpse crashed to the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.

The remaining leaders witnessed this scene, their eyes splitting with rage.

"Avenge our village chief!"

The second-in-command, his eyes red, was the first to charge at Li Xinge.

Except for a select few, the others didn't hesitate, throwing themselves forward like moths to a flame.

"Overestimating yourselves!"

Li Xinge sneered.

He raised his hands and then slammed them down.

Instantly, wind and sand surged, transforming into specters of death, reaping the leaders like stalks of wheat!

Looking at the corpses strewn across the ground, Li Xinge's expression was devoid of emotion.

The rank-and-file members who rushed over upon hearing the commotion were terrified when they saw the bodies on the ground.

They dropped their armor and weapons, scattering in all directions, fleeing across the mountains.

They feared being the last to be killed by the harbinger of death.

Li Xinge had no interest in killing these low-level thugs; his target was Black Robe Village's treasury. After all, Black Robe Village had been evil for so many years, they must have accumulated considerable wealth.

This wealth was tempting even to him.

His gaze fell upon a corner, where a figure trembled with his head buried.

Li Xinge slowly approached. Seeing Li Xinge coming, the person knelt on the ground, kowtowing like pounding garlic and begging for mercy, "Sir, please, don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

"Take me to the treasury."

Li Xinge said with a smile.

However, his smile was more terrifying than that of a devil to this person.

"Y-yes, sir, please follow me."

The treasury was not hidden; it was in a cave in the back of the mountain.

Li Xinge shattered the heavy stone door with a palm strike and stepped inside.

Inside the simple cave, gold and silver treasures were piled high, along with some valuable Cultivation Manuals and Spiritual Medicine.

Although there were many types, few were usable by cultivators in the Qi and Blood Realm.

It made sense; if Hu Yidao could have used them, he would have already.

Exiting the treasury.

Li Xinge struck the stone wall of the treasury with his palm. With a "boom," a massive rock collapsed, sealing the passage into the treasure vault.

After doing all this.

Li Xinge's figure slowly disappeared into the darkness.
