Chapter 458: Chapter 260: Ruthlessness (Part 2)
"Kill him, end it quickly!!"
The two of them simultaneously took a step forward, but at that moment, the world around Chu Qing changed.
The pitch-black night vanished, turning into bright daylight.
The snow-covered ground disappeared, replaced by a field of endless blooming flowers, amidst which two figures entangled ceaselessly.
Upon closer inspection, it was revealed to be two stunningly beautiful women, their gaze enchanting and captivating, looking at Chu Qing while beckoning him with outstretched arms...
Chu Qing remained unmoved.
[Nine Chapters of Divine Jade] circulated within his body, Yin and Yang shifted, illusions vanished instantly into thin air.
Unfortunately, this method only allowed Chu Qing to easily block mental influences and was not true spiritual martial arts.
Looking up, he saw a finger and a fist already before him, targeting his forehead and throat respectively.
Chu Qing’s face remained impassive, his hands grasping and pulling, accompanied by a twist of palm momentum, as a dragon roar erupted suddenly.
Though the palm had yet to strike, the accumulated momentum had already swept in all directions, the fierce wind stirring the ground causing the snow to scatter in all directions, even Lan Shuyi nearby was forced back repeatedly by this force.
Her face was painted with astonishment!
Not to mention the man and woman who bore the brunt of it.
The two were exceedingly confident, believing that the martial arts they practiced was extremely advanced.
And convinced that through their extensive cultivation, their inner power was profound, unparalleled by ordinary people.
Especially when joined together, their combined inner strength was more than just a simple addition of one and one.
They even considered that Chu Qing, who seemed deeply hidden, might not be greatly affected by the hidden illusion arts within these techniques...
But never in their wildest dreams did they anticipate that when Chu Qing decided to strike, it was with such formidable power.
Most importantly...
"This palm technique... the Third Young Master!!"
The two, with synced minds, instantly recognized the Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms used by Chu Qing.
The horror in their hearts surged to its peak in that moment!
It was a pity, for now, they were already riding the tiger and couldn’t dismount.
The force they exerted was too vigorous, should they urgently retract it, they would die without Chu Qing lifting a finger against them.
Thus, they could only stake everything on one chance.
A huge dragon head phantom was released along with Chu Qing’s palms.
As the fist and finger collided with the dragon head, it triggered a massive boom, akin to a sudden thunderclap in the night sky!
Even seven or eight miles apart, it was captured by the Taiheng Sect disciples guarding the Sword City’s walls.
"Who is dueling?"
"Did someone just leave from the south gate, is it them?"
The city folk heard it too, though they were unaware it was a battle of masters, and a crying child was startled silent by the sound, with adults comforting them by patting their backs, whispering softly:
"The heavens are angry that you are staying up late, if you keep not sleeping, it would come crashing down."
The child, frightened, tightly closed its eyes, using all its might to sleep...
Meanwhile, Lan Shuyi, who was closest, was instantly pushed back by the gang wind, flailing about like a wild tree in the wind and snow.
Thankfully, the stalemate lasted for only a moment, as both the man and woman simultaneously spewed fresh blood, pressured by the dragon-shaped phantom, flying backward.
From Lan Shuyi’s perspective, it indeed seemed like a real Divine Dragon living on earth.
Summoned by Chu Qing’s palm, its menacing dragon head carried the two reckless individuals forward.
Wherever it passed, the ground rumbled with intense tremors, creating large pits, even snapping some trees.
The two figures were flung a distance of tens of meters before finally being released by the palm force, landing in utmost disgrace.
At such a distance, Lan Shuyi couldn’t discern their fates.
When she looked back at Chu Qing, she realized he had vanished from his original spot.
Quickly looking up, indeed, in that brief instant, Chu Qing had crossed a dozen meters, appearing before the man and woman.
"How can it be so fast?"
Although Lan Shuyi was unaware of the limits of Chu Qing’s lightweight technique, she felt at this moment that his current technique was not the one he frequently used.
Without pondering the perplexities of it, she quickly caught up.
Seeing the man and woman now in utter disarray, their clothes torn in several places, hair disheveled, fresh blood oozing from their seven apertures.
It appeared... they were about to die.
In truth, that was indeed the case.
Chu Qing’s palm was not a full-force strike, but he didn’t intend to waste time with these Mirror of Sin experts here.
Hence, he didn’t hold back on the power...
The fact that they weren’t dead yet was a testament to their deep inner power.
In actuality, their meridians inside them were utterly shattered, their bones fractured.
Especially the arms that clashed with Chu Qing, all completely ruptured by the palm force, crumbling into blood rain, dissipating out of sight.
Yet despite this, the two still struggled, crawling toward each other.
Seeing their distance shrinking, then each extending their intact hand, calling each other’s name, wanting to touch...
"Ah Ping."
"Xuan Ge."
Lan Shuyi was moved seeing this scene.
Though what they did was inappropriate, it was evident they were truly in love.
As their hands were about to clasp, a foot suddenly kicked forward.
Forcefully intercepting their attempt to hold each other’s hand.
Lan Shuyi paused, turning to look at Chu Qing, momentarily grimacing:
"Do you have no heart?"
Chu Qing looked at Lan Shuyi puzzled:
"What?"
"They’re about to die, what harm is there in letting them hold hands?"
Lan Shuyi pointed to the two on the ground.
Chu Qing was speechless:
"How did you earn the title of executioner?"
In the middle of the night, wearing black, masked, here to play? Did we just stumble upon a couple?
Even after having their hands kicked apart, the two on the ground did not stop, gathering again, trying to hold hands...
Then Chu Qing kicked them apart again, speaking:
"Don’t forget, they practiced dual cultivation martial arts, what if holding hands reverses the yin yang and brings them back to life?"
Lan Shuyi paused, then suddenly understood:
"Oh, I see."
As the two attempted once more to hold hands, before Chu Qing could kick them apart, Lan Shuyi grabbed the man’s leg, pulling the two apart again.
After receiving a look of approval from Chu Qing, he then stepped on the woman’s head, saying to the man:
"There’s only one left in Mirror of Sin’s Evil Extermination List, what skills does that person possess? Tell me, and I won’t kill her."
"Get your foot off her!!"
The man’s eyes blazed with rage:
"I don’t know, I don’t care about anything except her!!!"
Chu Qing paused, then asked the woman:
"Do you know?"
"No, let me go, I want... I want my Xuan Ge, why did you separate us! We want to die together!"
Chu Qing’s mouth twitched, good grief, have I become the Sea of Dharma? He sighed, choosing not to bicker with the two.
He simply channeled his inner strength, killing the woman with a foot, then approached the man and kicked him amidst his overwhelming grief.
The two died without holding hands again.
Lan Shuyi sighed deeply:
"Although I understand your concern, but... has anyone told you, Third Young Master, you’re simply inhuman."
"I suppose none have your courage."
Chu Qing glanced at Lan Shuyi without expression.
"No, I haven’t, I haven’t said... I was just hypothetically speaking..."
Lan Shuyi quickly explained.
Chu Qing pondered for a moment:
"Then let me ask, has anyone ever broken your leg?"
"...No."
Lan Shuyi stepped back two steps.
Chu Qing chuckled:
"If you dare to make another hypothesis, I promise you won’t keep your legs."
"...Then I promise to never hypothesize again, what are we going to do now?"
"Kill the last one."
Chu Qing frowned slightly, he had initially thought all three would be drawn out, but it seemed the Evil Extermination List of the Mirror of Sin was indeed disorganized.
