77: The protagonist's golden finger is gone
"A mere remnant Soul of a Saint, this Old Man can extinguish it with a flick of his hand!"
Fire Elder’s aura flowed around his body, and his originally ordinary-looking figure instantly exuded a chilling oppressive force, as if the surrounding air had solidified.
In an instant, the subordinates Ning Village brought were all restrained as if by an invisible force, unable to move.
They widened their eyes in terror, their faces filled with despair and helplessness, trying to cry out but finding their throats blocked, unable to utter a sound.
Fire Elder merely waved his sleeve lightly, and the next second, Ning Village’s subordinates turned into dust in the air and drifted away with the wind, not even having time to let out a scream, dying without any pain.
Moreover, their ashes were scattered!
Upon reaching the Saint Realm, one can comprehend their own Great Dao of Heaven and Earth. Every word and action carries the power of the Great Dao, and the deeper one’s comprehension of the Great Dao, the stronger their power.
Most Saint Realm experts can comprehend one Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, but Fire Elder has comprehended three!
This also allows Fire Elder to gain the upper hand when facing experts of the same level.
Not to mention dealing with a mere remnant Soul like Old Wang.
"What is this… How can it be so strong?"
Ning Village found it unbelievable. He had so many subordinates, at least a thousand of them, yet they turned into ash in an instant, without even a single scream?
What kind of monster was this old man in front of him?
"Saint King! He’s a Saint King expert! Ning Village! Let’s run!"
Old Wang was using his last bit of strength to hold on, which prevented Ning Village from being annihilated by the Great Dao.
However, how could Fire Elder give him this chance?
Fire Elder reached out and grabbed, and a scream followed.
The reason Fire Elder is called Fire Elder is because his comprehension of the Great Dao of Fire has reached a perfect level.
Fire Elder’s previous attack almost turned Old Wang into roasted meat, and it nearly exhausted all of his own power.
"Madam, look, it was this monster who possessed your son’s body. I have now captured him!"
Fire Elder respectfully presented Old Wang, now in his Soul form, before Shen Qingwan.
And after Old Wang was pulled out, Ning Village actually stood there motionless, his eyes vacant.
Of course, this was all because Fire Elder’s Saint Realm pressure directly turned Ning Village into an idiot.
This was still under his significant restraint; if it weren’t to cooperate with Su Xuan’s plan, Ning Village would have long since drifted away with his group of subordinates.
Li Qiuyue looked at the scene before her with some surprise. She hadn't expected there to be a remnant Soul of a Saint in this small Qi Country!
This Realm, in Tianwu Holy Land, was also considered a pillar of strength.
However, compared to that, Li Qiuyue admired Su Xuan more. He could even say such deceptive words, only taking advantage of Shen Qingwan’s lack of understanding in cultivation.
If Shen Qingwan knew the truth, Li Qiuyue couldn't even imagine what Shen Qingwan would think!
"However, I’ve thought of a more interesting game…"
Li Qiuyue glanced at Su Xuan’s snow-like neck and involuntarily licked her lips.
"It was you! You possessed Zhuang’er’s body? Making him unable to rest in peace even after death?"
Shen Qingwan looked at Old Wang before her, instantly filled with immense anger. She punched Old Wang again and again, but with her Realm, she couldn't harm Old Wang at all.
"That’s right, Madam, it’s this fellow right here who possessed Ning Village’s body!"
"Look, after I pulled him out, Ning Village has become unresponsive. This is the evidence!"
Fire Elder said.
Hearing this, Shen Qingwan became even angrier, but no matter how she attacked, she couldn't cause effective damage to Old Wang.
At this moment, Old Wang was utterly speechless. Although he desperately tried to defend himself, telling Shen Qingwan not to believe their words, how could Shen Qingwan listen?
"Madam! Don’t believe what they say! Su Xuan and this old man in front of you are deceiving you!"
Old Wang desperately tried to defend himself.
"You’re still quibbling? The evidence is right in front of you! And you still won’t admit it? You truly are a beast!"
Shen Qingwan stared at Old Wang fiercely, her face full of murderous intent.
Zhuang’er has been dead for ten years… For these ten years, he still couldn’t rest in peace… Shen Qingwan’s anger in her heart could not be described with words.
"Audacious monster! Still stubborn even when death is at your doorstep? Today, I shall act on behalf of Heaven, by the mandate of Heaven! Slay demons and eliminate evil!"
After Su Xuan finished speaking, he was about to cleave Old Wang in half. However, at that moment, Shen Qingwan stopped Su Xuan.
"Husband… can I, can I have five minutes? I want to hear Zhuang’er’s voice one last time…"
Shen Qingwan pleaded.
"Why… Madam?"
Su Xuan asked in confusion.
"Although he possessed Zhuang’er’s body, the voice he makes is similar to Zhuang’er’s old voice, so I want to hear Zhuang’er’s voice one last time…"
"Just consider it… my last wish as a mother…"
As she spoke, Shen Qingwan was about to cry. Seeing this scene, Su Xuan suddenly felt a pang of heartache.
This reminded him of a video he had seen before, where a swindler’s voice was very similar to a mother’s deceased son. One day, the swindler called that mother…
"Alright! No problem!"
Anyway, the overall situation was already under control. Ning Village’s biggest trump card was in his hands, so he couldn’t stir up any trouble.
Then, Su Xuan and Fire Elder exchanged glances, and the latter immediately understood Su Xuan’s meaning.
Fire Elder pretended to put Old Wang back into Ning Village’s body, but in reality, he secretly crushed him to death. Finally, he released his Saint Realm pressure, allowing Ning Village to regain the ability to move and speak.
"Ding! Host has successfully slain the Destined Protagonist’s old master, destroying a major Opportunity for the Destined Protagonist, gaining 300,000 Villain Points! Ning Village’s Luck Value has decreased by 30,000!"
"Ding! Congratulations to the Host for successfully changing the plot. Reward: 200,000 Villain Points!"
"Ding! Ning Village’s Luck Value has dropped to 0. He has lost his status as the Destined Protagonist. Please slay him as soon as possible!"
"Is the Destined Protagonist’s old master really that valuable? Worth 500,000 Villain Points!"
"This is equivalent to 5 Lin Fans! As expected of a Saint-level old master, truly exceptional!"
Hearing the System’s prompts, Su Xuan almost burst out laughing. So many Villain Points would probably allow him to reach the Venerable Realm, right?
A Venerable Realm expert in his twenties, Su Xuan wouldn’t dare say he was unprecedented or would have no successors, but he was certainly defying heaven enough!
