51: Chapter 50 The Intimidation of the Immortal Slayer

"General, if you rely solely on this level of strength, I fear you cannot defeat the Shengui Realm. Could you enlighten me?"

Ji Xingyue's eyes flickered.

Everything within a radius of several miles came to a complete halt at this moment.

The blue sky, white clouds, and even time itself.

With a single step, she arrived three meters in front of Ye Xiu. A small ruler appeared in her hand, and with a boom, she shattered the blood-colored barrier.

She knocked Ye Xiu flying backward.

When everything resumed its operation.

Ji Xingyue remained standing where she was, while Ye Xiu was flying backward, vomiting blood.

"This rule is too cheap..."

Ye Xiu steadied his figure, wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, and frowned as he looked at Ji Xingyue in the distance.

"Young Miss Xingyue, are you sure you want to experience it?"

"In the Nine Cities of Great Xia, there are few people who catch my eye, but the General is one of them. Please."

"In that case, I shall await Young Miss Xingyue's critique."

Supreme Saber Intent began to condense.

Ye Xiu's palm-saber slowly raised.

In the starting stance of the Zhu Xian Style.

His silver-white pupils, outlined with cross patterns, seemed capable of seeing through everything and gazing directly at the Dao.

Grandmist shimmered brilliantly, and purple qi swirled around.

The Great Dao of Time and Space above Ji Xingyue's head was extremely dazzling.

Supreme Saber Intent began to condense.

This world was trembling.

The terrifying pressure made Ji Xingyue's beautiful face turn deathly pale.

She discovered in shock that she could not move.

It was as if she had been locked onto by the will of some supreme existence.

The moment Ye Xiu raised his palm-saber.

She lost control of herself.

The saber light illuminated the world.

Ji Xingyue's double pupils flickered frantically as she desperately urged the rules of time and space, trying to shake that supreme will.

But it was all in vain.

Hum.

The Great Dao of Time and Space trembled; as if sensing a threat, it showed signs of detaching from above Ji Xingyue's head.

This change.

Caused the first look of panic to appear on Ji Xingyue's face, right as she wore an expression of horror.

The saber light slowly faded.

Until it disappeared.

Ye Xiu withdrew the slashing motion of the Zhu Xian Style.

Although this caused him significant internal injuries, if he had truly struck, Ji Xingyue would have died, and he would have been entangled by Karma as well.

Dying suddenly for no reason.

This is not a trial Realm.

With divine objects like [purple qi] to resolve Karma.

Furthermore, the Great Catastrophe of Heaven and Earth will erupt in the future; under no circumstances can he perish together with Ji Xingyue.

Whoosh.

Above the clouds, a light breeze blew.

Tiny beads of cold sweat rolled down Ji Xingyue's fair forehead. She looked at Ye Xiu with eyes full of disbelief.

After a long silence.

She spoke with a pale face: "There is always someone better, and a heaven above heaven. This young lady has certainly broadened her horizons. In the world today, I fear no one can defeat the General."

Ye Xiu's face was also somewhat pale.

In order to show off.

He forcibly halted the execution of the Zhu Xian Style, which made him feel extremely uncomfortable.

Seeing Ji Xingyue's attitude of feeling inferior.

He felt much better inside.

Let you show off; I'll scare you to death!

He gave a light cough and replied: "Young Miss Xingyue is joking. Daoist Spells are all-encompassing; if we really fought, I would have no way to deal with you."

"General, what was that move just now called?"

Ji Xingyue recalled the feeling of being locked on and still felt a jolt of fear.

"Zhu Xian."

"Zhu Xian... What an imposing spirit. It is truly a blessing for our Great Xia that the General can master such a divine skill."

"Young Miss Xingyue's Way of Time and Space is the true child of destiny. If I hadn't been fortunate enough to learn a move or two, I would have made a fool of myself today."

Ye Xiu's tone was very humble.

But the overbearing aura in his eyes was somewhat scorching.

His meaning was clear.

I might not be able to beat you, but I can definitely kill you.

Ji Xingyue sighed inwardly.

The stronger Ye Xiu's strength, the greater the threat to the prominent families' plan to regain control of Great Xia.

The original plan to seize political power by force clearly needed a change in strategy.

"Since I have witnessed the General's strength, I will not disturb you any further."

"Please, Young Miss Xingyue."

Ye Xiu did not ask her to stay.

Currently, the prominent families and the Great Xia Cabinet are not on friendly terms.

As a member of Great Xia's God-Making Project, he would definitely be a pillar of Great Xia in the future.

Before the Cabinet has formulated a clear policy to deal with the prominent families, it is not advisable to have too much contact.

Otherwise, it is easy to lead the Cabinet to make some wrong judgments.

Ji Xingyue did not say anything more.

Her lips moved as if she were sending a voice transmission; in an instant, she had disappeared.

"The Great Dao of Time and Space contains the rules of space and time. I wonder if the prominent families have any other monsters of this level..."

Ye Xiu sighed in his heart.

He shook his head slightly and descended towards the military region below.

...

"Did you win?"

In the hall, there was a hint of excitement on Sikong Tianwen's aged face.

"I suppose so."

Ye Xiu sat down in his seat.

He picked up the teacup on the wooden table and drained it in one gulp.

Hearing the answer.

Sikong Tianwen's excitement grew even more intense: "You kid are not bad. The victory in this battle can change many things."

"Eh?"

"The Daoist Sect has already joined forces with the prominent families."

"They have united?"

"Yes, apart from the Qingcang Daoist Sect and the destroyed Nine Heavens Taoist Sect, the Daoist Sect and the prominent families have formed a united front. The Ji Family came to Tianfu City mainly to persuade Master Zhang."

"Is Master Zhang very strong?"

Ye Xiu had met Master Zhang.

Ethereal and unfathomable—that was his impression of Master Zhang.

"The number one person of the Daoist Sect, his strength is even above that of the previous Heavenly Master."

"What about his Realm?"

Ye Xiu was curious; the cultivation Realms of these older generation powerhouses were very vague, varying in strength.

"He should have reached the Tongtian Realm by now."

Sikong Tianwen was somewhat admiring, his tone carrying a great deal of respect.

Tongtian Realm?

Ye Xiu was a bit confused and didn't quite understand what level this Realm was.

Among the strength Realms announced officially.

The highest was only the Void Imperial Realm.

Sikong Tianwen seemed to know Ye Xiu's confusion and explained: "The Tongtian Realm is a major Realm after the Void Imperial Realm. Currently, in the entire Great Xia, I fear only Master Zhang has reached this Realm."

"That powerful?"

A trace of surprise appeared in Ye Xiu's eyes.

"When this old man was the same age as you, Master Zhang was already invincible in the world. He was the previous generation's Daoist Heavenly Master. If it weren't for his suggestion, Great Xia would not have held the Nine Cities Migration Plan."

"That badass..."

"Heh heh... Master Zhang is over three hundred years old. What did you expect?"

"Over three hundred years old... To be able to live so long in an era without the recovery of Spiritual Qi..."

"Master Zhang entered the Dao through martial arts and founded the Qingcang Daoist Sect."

Sikong Tianwen said this.

After looking at Ye Xiu's reaction.

He continued: "Besides his combat power, Master Zhang's mastery of Taiji Bagua deduction techniques allows him to foresee the future. That is why that young girl from the Ji Family and the current Heavenly Master came specifically to ask for Master Zhang's opinion."

"Awesome..."
