86: Chapter 86 Is this the seemingly weak and delicate deputy leader?

[Before Tianquan Mountain, there was a deathly silence.]

[The smiles on the faces of the Qingqi Sect members froze, their eyeballs nearly popping out of their sockets.]

["This... how is this possible?" an Elder's voice trembled. "One palm to insta-kill an Innate Middle Stage cultivator? What exactly is her cultivation level?"]

[The Hall Masters of the Black Tiger Gang also gasped in shock.]

["The Vice Leader was actually... this fierce?"]

["Damn, and here I thought the Vice Leader was just a delicate beauty!"]

[Sect Master Shen Heming's composure completely shattered; he flashed forward, rushed to Shen Yushuang's side, and picked her up.]

[Shen Yushuang's eyes rolled back, a "gurgling" sound emitted from her throat. She had just managed to utter two blurry words before her head tilted sharply to the side, and she completely stopped breathing.]

["Yushuang!" Sect Master Shen Heming's eyes turned blood-red, and the True Qi of a Great Grandmaster Late Stage erupted without reservation, shattering the surrounding gravel into powder.]

[He snapped his head up, staring daggers at you, his voice shrill.]

["You little beast! I want you dead! All Disciples of the Qingqi Sect, listen to my order: Kill! Leave none alive!"]

["Kill!"]

[Thousands of Qingqi Sect Disciples surged out from within the mountain gate, the gleam of blades and swords reflecting against the overcast sky.]

[Wei Feisen let out a wild laugh, and dark red Protective Aura surged out from his body. Over the past few years, he had consumed all the remaining Medicinal Pills, forcibly pushing his cultivation to the Grandmaster Peak.]

["Shen Beichen! I'm going to chop you up first!" Wei Feisen charged into the crowd with his blade, heading straight for Shen Beichen on the archway.]

[At the same time, the Black-robed Puppet that had been standing behind you with zero presence also moved.]

[Under your dual mental control, the Puppet's strength was precisely suppressed to the Great Grandmaster Peak. Like an emotionless killing machine, it instantly breached the Qingqi Sect's combat circle.]

["Bang!"]

[The Law Enforcement Elder's heavy sword struck the black robe, but it only emitted the crisp sound of metal clashing against metal. The Black-robed man threw a backhand punch, directly smashing the Law Enforcement Elder's head. Red and white matter splattered everywhere as it began to roam the battlefield, specifically hunting down the Great Grandmasters and Grandmaster Elders of the Qingqi Sect.]

[The battlefield instantly turned into a meat grinder.]

[Three Qingqi Sect Grandmaster Stage Elders, eyes red with rage, abandoned their opponents and lunged at you from three directions.]

["Demoness! Pay with your life for my niece!"]

[You stood your ground, not drawing your sword. Facing the combined assault of the three Grandmasters, you merely raised your hands slowly.]

[The Green Vessel Hundred Forging Record circulated, and a layer of faint green light rippled across the surface of your skin.]

[The Elder on the left slashed your shoulder with his blade, but the blade curled upon impact, and your skin didn't even show a white mark. You retaliated with an elbow strike, smashing his skull.]

[The Elder on the right thrust his spear into your abdomen, but the spear tip bent. You grabbed the spear shaft, yanked it hard, pulled him in front of you, and shattered his heart meridian with a single palm strike.]

[Seeing this, the last Elder was scared out of his wits and turned to flee. You flicked a long sword from the ground with your toe and threw it casually; the sword pierced through his back and pinned him dead to the stone steps.]

[Three breaths, three Grandmasters, all wiped out.]

[The surrounding Qingqi Sect Disciples who were fighting saw this scene, their movements stalling in unison, their eyes filled with numbness and fear.]

[Even a Grandmaster couldn't withstand a single move? What kind of monster is this woman? She's only eighteen! An eighteen-year-old Grandmaster? No, this overwhelming strength is definitely that of a Great Grandmaster!]

[Sect Master Shen Heming put down his daughter's corpse and slowly stood up. Watching you move through the battlefield as if it were an empty space, the wild rage in his eyes was gradually replaced by extreme shock and wariness.]

[He finally realized how ridiculously wrong the intelligence was; this eighteen-year-old girl was actually a Great Grandmaster! Such talent was simply appalling. If she wasn't completely wiped out today, the Qingqi Sect would surely face a catastrophe.]

["Go, ask the Grand Elder to come out of seclusion!" Sect Master Shen Heming turned his head and growled at a trusted aide beside him. "Tell him the Qingqi Sect has reached a moment of life and death!"]

[The aide scrambled away toward the back mountain.]

[Sect Master Shen Heming took a deep breath and shook his arms, releasing the pressure of a Great Grandmaster Late Stage without reservation. He strode toward you, and with every step he took, the bluestone slabs on the ground shattered into dust.]

["Lin Shuangwan, I admit I misjudged you, but you should never, ever have killed my daughter!"]

[Sect Master Shen Heming roared, thrusting both palms out. The incomparably thick cyan True Qi transformed into two small mountains, pressing down upon your head.]

[Your eyes narrowed slightly as you raised your hand to meet it.]

["Boom—!"]

[The two powerful forces of True Qi collided, sending shockwaves rolling, blasting everyone within ten zhang flying. You used the momentum to retreat two steps, shaking your slightly numb wrist.]

[Sect Master Shen Heming held the upper hand, a trace of cruelty flashing in his eyes: "As expected of a Great Grandmaster! Unfortunately, your Realm is not high enough; today, you are destined to die under my Green Vessel Hundred Forging Record!"]

[Sect Master Shen Heming's muscles bulged, and his skin took on a rich bronze color. His defense and strength instantly increased by a large margin, and he charged at you again like a violent rhinoceros.]

[Looking at the bronze-colored light on his body, a mocking sneer curled at the corner of your lips.]

["Green Vessel Hundred Forging Record? What a coincidence, I know it too."]

[As soon as the words fell, the Qi and blood within your body roared like a bursting river. A layer of faint green-gold color permeated from beneath your skin; if one didn't look closely, they wouldn't even notice any change, your skin remaining fair.]

[Perfection stage, Green Vessel Hundred Forging Record!]

[You did not dodge; facing Sect Master Shen Heming's fists, you threw a punch directly.]

["Crack!"]

[As the fists met, Sect Master Shen Heming let out a shrill scream. The terrifying recoil from your punch sent him staggering back five steps, each step leaving a deep pit in the ground.]

[Sect Master Shen Heming steadied himself and spat out a large mouthful of blood with a "wah".]

[As for you, you only retreated three steps, your complexion rosy, your breath steady and long; you didn't even lose your breath.]

[Sect Master Shen Heming clutched his injured right arm, shocked and furious, his eyes almost popping out with blood. He looked at you as if you were a ghost: "You... how can you have the highest Profound Truth of my Qingqi Sect on you?! You actually trained the Green Vessel Hundred Forging Record to Perfection?! Who taught you?!"]

[You brushed off your sleeves, your tone indifferent: "Dead people don't need to know so much."]

[Just as you were preparing to step forward and finish off Sect Master Shen Heming, a powerful voice soared into the sky from the back of Tianquan Mountain.]

["Who dares to run wild in my Qingqi Sect!"]

[Immediately after, a grey-robed figure swept over from the back mountain like a giant roc spreading its wings, landing on top of the white jade archway after a few leaps.]

[It was an old man with white hair and beard, his face gaunt and refined, possessing the bearing of an immortal. He stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering, and his entire body exuded an otherworldly aura, as if he had already stepped half a foot into another level.]

[The Qingqi Sect Grand Elder, a powerhouse at the quasi-Earthly Immortal level who had been in seclusion for many years and had already touched the threshold of the Earthly Immortal!]

["Grand Elder!"]

[The surviving Qingqi Sect Disciples seemed to see a savior, kneeling on the ground one after another, weeping bitterly.]
