73: Chapter 73 Slaying Chu Wuyan! Late Golden Core Stage, Annihilation in a Single Thought

Deep in the night, the moon was dark and the wind was high; the wind was cold and the stars were chilly.

In Qingshan Town, on a desolate and deserted back road.

Thinking of how Ling Xiaoxiao might be strongly supported after being snatched away, his fifty-fold base reward, plus the doubled critical hit, instantly turned into a hollow joy.

This outcome made Chu Wuyan feel extremely difficult to accept.

In truth, this was also because they hadn't done their homework beforehand.

Attracted by the fifty-fold feedback reward carried by Ling Xiaoxiao as prompted by the System, he was blinded by lust and driven by greed, completely failing to consider the depth of Gu Qingge's strength.

He attempted to use his usual sticky, pestering "simp" tactics, but they had no effect at all.

If he had truly known that Gu Qingge had once beheaded a Golden Core Stage Cultivator with a single sword and plotted the slaughter of a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator, he wouldn't have dared to go to Shengdan Hall to pester Ling Xiaoxiao, even if he were given ten times the courage.

"Friend, it seems you have forgotten something."

Just then, an indifferent tone called out to stop Chu Wuyan.

Following that, a pitch-black figure appeared nearby like a ghost.

"Who is it?"

Chu Wuyan turned around upon hearing the voice.

Even though he couldn't see the person clearly, he felt it wouldn't be anything good.

Since it wasn't a good thing, it could basically be determined as a bad thing!

Although he had inquired before coming, the security in Qingshan Town had always been very good.

The possibility of encountering bandit Cultivators here was close to zero.

However, his previous reputation as a "wealth-scattering boy" had spread, which would inevitably attract some attention.

Especially in the cultivation world, where incidents of murder and robbery were never lacking.

"What do you want?" Chu Wuyan asked after seeing the person's face.

At the same time, he was secretly observing the surroundings, seeking a route to escape.

Although he had certain trump cards, he felt they were not enough to support him in opposing Gu Qingge.

"What do I want?" Gu Qingge scanned him with cold eyes and said leisurely, "What do you think?"

He had already scouted the surrounding terrain beforehand to ensure that the other party could not escape even with wings.

In the end, it was the fate of becoming fish on the chopping block.

"You want to kill me? Isn't that a bit too vicious?"

"I am just pursuing my love with all my heart. If you also like her, we can just compete fairly."

"Heh. Compete fairly? Do you think I am an upright Cultivator?" Gu Qingge turned a deaf ear to his words and spoke with a series of cold laughs.

In the cultivation world, there is an eternal truth.

This world has no rules to speak of.

If there are any, it only proves that your strength is insufficient and you cannot treat them as nothing.

"You are a bandit Cultivator... no, that's not right, a Devilish Cultivator!"

Chu Wuyan widened his eyes, his expression revealing disbelief.

Looking at the faint Devilish Qi on Gu Qingge, combined with the dark gold robe on him, evil energy surged, as if a Celestial Demon had descended upon the world!

Noble! Looking down upon all living beings! Evil and arrogant, standing between heaven and earth!

At this moment, Chu Wuyan wouldn't even have the slightest doubt if someone said Gu Qingge was the Demon Lord resurrected and descended.

Moreover, judging by the current situation, the other party was clearly here to pick a fight with him.

This matter likely wouldn't end well.

Since ancient times, righteousness and evil have been incompatible.

Bandit Cultivators are generally cruel, killing and robbing, seizing treasures, and if they say they will slaughter an entire family, they won't leave a single one behind.

And Devilish Cultivators are even worse!

The gene for slaughter seems to be deeply rooted in their memories.

Slaughtering Cultivators is even less of a burden for them.

After weighing the pros and cons, as well as the hope of escape, Chu Wuyan shouted, "Do you think you can easily take me down? Let me tell you, you are delusional!"

In this world, when fear grows and spreads to the extreme, one becomes fearless.

It was exactly as Chu Wuyan was displaying at this moment.

Anyway, it's a blade whether you stick your neck out or pull it back.

It would be better to fight him hard; there might still be a certain chance of survival.

The next moment, Chu Wuyan moved.

He activated his spatial ring and took out a weapon, the Nine Demon-Breaking Blades.

The power of this weapon was very strong, enough to threaten the life of a Foundation Establishment Stage Peak Cultivator.

And this weapon was also obtained through the System's doubled return reward.

It had always been one of his strongest trump cards for facing enemies.

He saw that Gu Qingge was only in his twenties, and believed that even if his cultivation was higher than his, it couldn't be much higher, at most at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

Thus, by using the sharp edge of the Nine Demon-Breaking Blades to attack, it would be enough to behead him right here!

Who would have thought that the actual situation was completely different from what he had imagined.

"Weak, simply too weak."

Gu Qingge did not make a move, just stared indifferently at Chu Wuyan's attack as it came crashing down.

He had no movement, yet the gale formed by the condensed Spiritual Qi in the air destroyed and crushed the other party's attack into nothingness.

Chu Wuyan's Nine Demon-Breaking Blades, which he was proud of, also turned into fragments flying all over the sky in an instant.

"Don't tell me you weren't hiding your strength, and that you are genuinely only at the Qi Refinement Stage."

Until the next moment, Gu Qingge's indifferent voice sounded again.

This remark made Chu Wuyan instantly feel the urge to curse.

He had figured it out; the Gu Qingge before him could absolutely not be just one Realm higher than him.

Looking at his posture standing with his hands behind his back in mid-air, it was very likely that the other party was a Golden Core Stage Cultivator.

"Golden Core Stage..."

After such a thought arose in his heart, Chu Wuyan suddenly felt somewhat numb.

If this was really the case, then he wouldn't be able to escape at all.

Even with the blessing of the System, he could not change the fate of being about to be beheaded.

Besides fighting with his life, there was no other way.

"Bastard!" Forced to the end of his rope, Chu Wuyan roared violently.

It was as if he had made some kind of resolution in his heart.

It was quite a determined feeling of success or death.

"Oh? Do you still have an unexpected backup plan?"

The reason Gu Qingge didn't behead him without a word was mainly because he was worried the other party had some special means.

He wanted to force out all his trump cards.

Now, it seemed the other party was at the end of his rope and seemed to want to fight with his life.

"Golden Core Stage? In my opinion, it's nothing special!"

Utilizing the passive skill of the Simp System, Chu Wuyan's whole body shone with brilliant golden light.

He was frantically burning his Lifespan to exchange for strength!

His originally thick, black, and shiny long hair had now turned as white as snow, wrinkles appeared on his face, and his body became much more hunched.

Originally, at the Qi Refinement Stage, he should have had over a hundred years of Lifespan, but after this attempt, it was basically consumed.

And his strength was fixed at the Golden Core Stage Late Stage!

However, even so, it was enough to see that the Simp System he possessed had powerful functions.

It could actually allow a Qi Refinement Stage Cultivator to burn Lifespan and become a Golden Core Stage Late Stage Cultivator.

Like when the Qingxuan Sect Elder used a secret technique, which required the cost of falling in Realm; compared to this, it was inferior by more than a notch.

"However, so what?"

"Everything ends here!"

In Gu Qingge's pair of black eyes, there was no fluctuation to speak of.

Let alone the fact that Chu Wuyan's strength had temporarily increased to the Golden Core Stage, what if he had reached the Nascent Soul Stage?

A Nascent Soul, to him, could also be killed!

Chu Wuyan unleashed his strongest attack; the surrounding Spiritual Qi raged like a vortex, heading straight for his head.

On the other hand, Gu Qingge, with just one person and one sword, his shadow moved with the wind, and his sword fell like flying petals in the rain.

The next moment, Chu Wuyan bled on the spot, his body and head separated.

Golden Core Late Stage, also nothing more than extinguished in a single thought.

"Dead, then let him be dead."

"In my life, I have always disliked simps the most."

"Those who simp until the end and have everything are even more hateful."

This time, out of caution, Gu Qingge did not absorb him into the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.

Instead, he pointed his finger from afar, and Chu Wuyan's Divine Soul instantly shattered and vanished into the air.

He was also worried that the novel plots he had once read would turn into reality, such as a soul residing in the Ten Thousand Soul Banner, devouring other souls, and finally escaping to heaven.

Facing uncertain hidden dangers, Gu Qingge always erased them with his own hands!

And this action also extinguished Chu Wuyan's last shred of a chance to come back from the dead.

[Ding.]

[Congratulations to the Host for beheading the Child of Destiny who obtained the Ten-Thousand-Fold Feedback Simp System, and obtaining the Celestial Demon Imprisoning World Curse.]

In an instant, Gu Qingge felt a sense of enlightenment in his Sea of Consciousness.

This battle technique, if unleashed, would surely carry a monstrous momentum, burning mountains and boiling seas, sweeping across the entire world!
