Now, the situation had spiraled out of control.
Shen Ruyan was no longer interested in playing games.
Even if it meant making enemies with the Xu family, she was determined to utterly defeat Xu Kunming.
BOOM!
Suddenly, a battle-axe flew out of Xu Kunming’s mouth.
It grew larger in the wind, quickly becoming thousands of feet in size. It collided fiercely with Shen Ruyan’s Five Lightning Immortal Slayer.
Swoosh!
However, the expected violent collision did not occur.
in the moment Shen Ruyan’s Five Lightning Immortal Slayer clashed with Xu Kunming’s battle axe, its razor-sharp sword light sliced through the axe s mystical aura as easily as a knife through butter.
With a clang, the axe fell.
Xu Kunming was shaken to his core.
A mouthful of blood spewed out as fear filled his eyes.
He shouted, “Mercy, Fairy! I…”
Shriek-
Before he could finish his plea, Shen Ruyan’s sword swept across his body.
A bloodline quickly appeared on Xu Kunming’s forehead.
He stood motionless, and after a short moment, his body split into two charred halves and fell from the sky.
A spiritual Qi tsunami suddenly surged in the sky.
However, the entire scene was deathly silent.
Everyone stood in awe.
Their minds were buzzing.
A Soul Formation Heavenly Lord had died just like that.
Junior Brother Yao and the old man in white could not help but gasp.
They knew Xu Kunming couldn’t match Shen Ruyan, but they hadn’t expected the gap to be so vast.
Just one exchange of Dharma treasures, and Xu Kunming was defeated.
Where did these two come from?
They had never been seen before in the Astral Origin cultivation world.
It was only at this moment that Junior Brother Yao and the white-robed old man noticed this problem.
They couldn’t help but look at each other.
Whoosh—
However, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan had no intention of staying any longer.
Shen Ruyan put away Xu Kunming’s storage ring and left with Jiang Chengxuan and Huang Wenyu.
Splash!
Not long after the three of them left, the originally silent place suddenly became lively.
The onlookers were in a frenzy, discussing what had just unfolded.
Meanwhile, messages spread rapidly throughout the Astral Origin cultivation world, causing a stir.
The death of a Soul Formation Heavenly Lord was enough to shock the entire Astral Origin cultivation world.
Especially since this was the first time in thousands of years that a Soul Formation cultivator had died in the hands of other Soul Formation cultivators.
This kind of news was even more shocking.
The Xu family.
Xu Kuntian, one of the two Soul Formation ancestors of the Xu family, looked at the message in his communication jade talisman with a face ashen with shock.
He could never have imagined that his cousin, also a Soul Formation ancestor of the Xu family, Xu Kunming, would fall, especially at the hands of someone whose name they didn’t even know.
“Haishan, if I remember correctly, one of those three people is the vice leader of the West Ocean Commerce Alliance, right?” Xu Kuntian asked a middle-aged man standing below him.
The man, the current head of the Xu family and a cultivator with the seventh level of Nascent Soul, respectfully nodded,
“Yes, according to our investigation, one of those three is indeed the vice leader of the West Ocean Commerce Alliance, named Huang Wenyu.
“Huang Wenyu, huh?”
Xu Kuntian’s face darkened.
“Send a message to the West Ocean Commerce Alliance in my name, telling them they need to give the Xu family an explanation for this incident, or else they can forget about passing through Xu family territory in the future.
Forget it. I’ll personally make a trip to the West Ocean Commerce Alliance.” With that, Xu Kuntian’s figure had already disappeared from the Xu family.
West Ocean Commerce Alliance.
Zheng Hengyu, the current leader of the Alliance, was entertaining several Soul Formation cultivators, including Junior Brother Yao and the white-robed elder.
They had come to inquire about the incident involving the three individuals, one of whom was Huang Wenyu, a member of their Alliance.
During this period, Huang Wenyu had already announced to the outside world that he had officially left the West Ocean Commerce Alliance.
However, to everyone’s surprise, Zheng Hengyu, the Alliance Leader, rejected Huang Wenyu1 s proposal.
Moreover, he claimed that he would always save the position of the vice-leader for Huang Wenyu.
As such, the West Ocean Commerce Alliance naturally became the center of attention.
At that moment, Zheng Hengyu was talking to the white-clothed old man and the others. Just at that moment, an extremely ferocious aura suddenly came from the distant sky.
Accompanying this was a loud shout filled with anger.
“Zheng Hengyu, hand over Huang Wenyu.
Otherwise, your West Ocean Commerce Alliance can forget about passing through my Xu family’s territory in the future!”
The newcomer was Xu Kuntian from the Xu family, who had not bothered to conceal his aura.
His words were heard by everyone in the West Ocean Commerce Alliance, sparking anger among many cultivators.
However, given Xu Kuntian’s status as a Soul Formation Heavenly Lord, no one dared to openly retort him.
They believed that their Alliance Leader, Zheng Hengyu, would definitely not remain silent in the face of such a threat.
In fact, Zheng Hengyu didn’t disappoint them.
He first apologized to the white-robed old man and the others.
Then, he quickly dashed outside and, upon seeing the fiercely approaching Xu Kuntian, immediately furrowed his brows and said,
“Xu Kuntian, running wild in my West Ocean Commerce Alliance, are you out of your mind?
If you are so capable, why don’t you go after the person who killed your cousin instead of picking a fight with me?
Do you think the West Ocean Commerce Alliance and I, Zheng Hengyu, are particularly easy to bully?”
As he spoke, Zheng Hengyu’s own formidable aura surged up, clashing with the aura emanating from Xu Kuntian.
Boom, boom, boom!
Huge rumbles echoed in the sky, drawing shocked gazes from the surrounding passersby cultivators.
“That… That is?
Xu Kuntian, the ancestor of the Xu family, and Zheng Hengyu, the leader of the West Ocean Commerce Alliance!”
Soon, the identities of the two were recognized.
Given the recent event of Xu Kunming’s death, some quickly connected the dots, and their faces changed dramatically, wondering if a major battle was about to ensue between Xu Kuntian and Zheng Hengyu.
If so, that would really be…
Xu Kuntian hadn’t expected such a tough stance from Zheng Hengyu right from the start.
This caused his expression to darken.
Ignoring Zheng Hengyu’s words, Xu Kuntian stared intently at him and said each word deliberately:
” Zheng Hengyu, are you going to hand over Huang Wenyu or not?
Or does your West Ocean Commerce Alliance really want to be at endless war with my Xu family?”
“Puff!”
Zheng Hengyu’s face revealed a scornful sneer.
“An endless war?
Xu Kuntian, you really overestimate yourself. Just you? Your Xu family?
Let me see what you, Xu Kuntian, are capable of to dare threaten me with an endless war!”
As soon as he finished speaking, Zheng Hengyu suddenly formed a seal with both hands.
Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!
Instantly, the void trembled.
Immediately after, whistling scarlet tornados suddenly appeared around him. Moreover, each was accompanied by streaks of gold and silver lightning, exuding a terrifying might.
Rumble!
The sound was like thunder rolling through the air.
The crimson tornadoes quickly merged into one, growing to a thousand feet, then three thousand, and finally five thousand feet, sweeping toward Xu Kuntian with an unparalleled destructive force!
