Luo Jianqing's palm was cracked and bleeding, but he only took three steps back before regaining his balance. Meanwhile, the unfamiliar cultivator, who had reached the Great Perfection stage of the Mahayana stage, stumbled back dozens of steps, his body covered in blood and constantly spitting blood. A crack had even appeared on his long staff. He gasped for breath, circulating his spiritual energy to recover.
However, how could Luo Jianqing give his opponent a chance to catch his breath?
He activated the "Nine Lotuses Heaven-Seizing Record" and, with the power of the bright green jade bead, slashed out a green sword shadow.
The sword pierced through the stranger's sea of consciousness, causing him to freeze and shatter. Luo Jianqing gently swung the Frost Floating Sword and looked at Li Xiuchen coldly, no longer paying attention to the dying stranger. Unexpectedly, at this moment, the monk said hoarsely, "Li... Li Xiuchen, please hurry up and let us..."
Li Xiuchen thrust his sword, piercing the stranger's mouth and leaving him speechless. The stab came so fast that Luo Jianqing didn't have time to react. He turned to see the monk's eyes wide open, staring at Li Xiuchen in disbelief, as if he had seen something terrifying.
Li Xiuchen retracted his sword and looked at Luo Jianqing vigilantly.
Luo Jianqing walked towards him with a smile on his face, just like when Li Xiuchen first entered Taihua Mountain decades ago, with steady steps.
An elegant and indifferent aura emanated from Luo Jianqing, making his already stunningly handsome face even more radiant. Every step he took could stir anyone's heart. Observing his demeanor was like admiring a royal orchid, a truly graceful and elegant presence. Even the blood between his fingers didn't seem so terrifying, but rather, like a cinnabar embellishment.
No matter how fast Li Xiuchen progresses or how high his realm is, he will never be able to possess this kind of temperament.
Compared with the person in front of him, he always seemed like an unknown new disciple of Taihua Mountain, while the other party was the high and mighty first disciple of Taihua Mountain and the successor of Yuxiao Peak.
A flicker of jealousy and shame crossed Li Xiuchen's face, but Luo Jianqing saw it all, yet it didn't stir any more emotion in him. He simply lowered his eyes, looking at Li Xiuchen coldly as he heard him say, "Kill me or chop me up, it's all up to you. Even if you kill me, someone will surely avenge me!"
Hearing this, Luo Jianqing's face turned strange. He smiled and asked, "Who said I want to kill you?"
Li Xiuchen was stunned for a moment: "You won't kill me?"
Luo Jianqing's smile deepened, and he asked in a long voice: "Can I kill you?"
Li Xiuchen opened his eyes wide. Before he could react, he saw a sharp sword light rushing towards his left eye. In just a moment, his left eye was pierced!
"ah!!!"
The intense pain made Li Xiuchen howl in agony. He wanted to roll on the ground, but Luo Jianqing's sword suddenly struck again, and this time it cut off his left arm at the root!
“Ah! It hurts!!!”
Luo Jianqing smiled at him. Through his intact right eye, Li Xiuchen looked at the gentle and beautiful smile on Luo Jianqing's face, but he felt as if he had seen a yaksha. That smile seemed beautiful, but underneath it was a terrible poison.
"You...you are not a human being at all, you are a devil! Why would you do this to me! After all, we are brothers!"
Luo Jianqing was stunned for a moment, then suddenly remembered that, according to Li Xiuchen's memory, he hadn't intentionally provoked him. Li Xiuchen had completely forgotten what had happened in the Beidou Zhenjun ruins, and there really wasn't any deep hatred between the two of them.
However, Luo Jianqing was too lazy to answer Li Xiuchen's question.
He swung his sword lightly and cut off Li Xiuchen's other arm. Blood immediately gushed out like a fountain.
Li Xiuchen was truly writhing on the ground in agony this time, but Luo Jianqing was perplexed by his appearance. He felt something was amiss. Back then, when he'd just tried to strike Li Xiuchen, the Heavenly Dao would have sent down divine thunder to stop him. But how come, now that he'd blinded Li Xiuchen and severed both his arms, the Heavenly Dao hadn't reacted at all?
When something is abnormal, there must be something wrong!
Luo Jianqing looked at Li Xiuchen calmly, and did not take him to the Wutong tree. He just looked at each other among the mountains.
No matter how much pain one endured, it eventually became a habit. After all, Li Xiuchen had reached the fusion stage. Even with his arms broken and his eyes blinded, he couldn't die. He just kept cursing at Luo Jianqing, "Kill me if you want. We're brothers from the same sect, why are you torturing me like this?"
Luo Jianqing smiled at him and said, "Since we are fellow disciples, I must consider our friendship and spare your life."
"You!" Li Xiuchen's eyes rolled as he cursed, "You beast! You betrayed the sect, you are despised by the world. You are that monster, you will kill us all! You are a beast!"
Luo Jianqing stood opposite Li Xiuchen with a smile, letting him curse as if he didn't hear anything.
By the end of his scolding, Li Xiuchen seemed a little tired. He cursed in a hoarse voice: "You shameless thing, you are having an affair with your own master. You are committing incest. You two are shameless. You bitch, you have a mother who gave birth to you but not a mother who taught you..."
By the end, Li Xiuchen had completely disregarded any sense of propriety and shame, and was cursing at everyone with all kinds of dirty words.
Hearing these words, the smile on Luo Jianqing's face slowly disappeared. He didn't care about the dirty words of a villain like Li Xiuchen, but Li Xiuchen shouldn't have cursed his mother, let alone Xuan Lingzi.
However, Luo Jianqing was not the impulsive type. He said in a cold tone, "Do you really want to die?"
Li Xiuchen was slightly stunned and stopped cursing.
Luo Jianqing curled his lips: "Tell me, why do you want to die so much? Since you have shown it so obviously, I don't mind asking you the reason."
Li Xiuchen's face turned pale instantly. He stammered, "You're the one who wants to die, you beast, you...Ah!!!"
Luo Jianqing smashed the guy's mouth with a sword, making it impossible for him to curse anymore.
The world suddenly became quiet. Luo Jianqing had originally wanted to get some information out of Li Xiuche's mouth, so he didn't destroy his mouth. Now he was too lazy to pay attention to him. Unexpectedly, the next moment, Li Xiuche saw that his mouth was rotten and suddenly wanted to self-destruct!
Luo Jianqing's eyes narrowed, and a surge of spiritual power rolled in, suppressing Li Xiuchen's every move with its majestic momentum, making him unable to move.
Luo Jianqing stuffed a soul-clearing pill into Li Xiuchen's mouth and said in a cold voice, "If you want to die so badly, you must have a way to escape. Don't even think about dying in front of me. From today on, every incense stick, I'll cut off a piece of your flesh; every half hour, I'll peel off an inch of your skin. If you tell me what's happening outside one day, then... you might be able to find freedom."
Li Xiuchen was terrified by Luo Jianqing, his pupils trembling, and he fell to the ground in fear.
