Chapter 77: The Power of the Hairpin
The entire Taiyan Holy Land had now fallen silent.
The might caused by that strike still seemed to be spreading towards even farther lands.
The Taiyan Holy Land had been turned into a pile of rubble.
People from all major powers were almost all kneeling on the ground, silent as cicadas in winter, overwhelmed by emotion, the immense horror they had just experienced shaking their Dao hearts and rendering them incapable of resistance.
A True Immortal Artifact destroyed…
A True Immortal perished on the spot…
A terrifying strike that nearly annihilated everything…
Looking around the entire scene, aside from Long Zixuan and Lu Rang, only
Fire Spirit and Mu Qianning remained standing.
They both carried items bestowed by Li Fan, which could help them resist that immense pressure."Oh my gosh… Is this Blazing Staff really so… so terrifying?”
Lu Rang was utterly dazed.
He knew that in his master’s small courtyard, there was not a single common item, but could a mere Blazing Staff actually annihilate a True Immortal so casually?
He had thought that the chopsticks in his hand were already terrifying enough…
"Senior Li… what a grand move, annihilating two more True Immortals…”
Fire Spirit muttered in shock, her mind flashing back to the last time at the Ascension Platform, where a calligraphy stroke brought down a True
Immortal…
To the Xuantian Realm, Immortals were entities to be worshipped, but to Senior Li, they were… being killed indiscriminately!
"I just knew it, with Senior Li here, all conspiracies are doomed to fail!” Mu Qianning clenched her fists tightly, her face flushed with excitement.
Meanwhile, Cao Yijian and the Luofu Holy Master had become completely stupefied, their eyes filled with terror.
Oh my God…
What on earth is going on…
Wiry are even the invincible True Immortals dying so casually, so quickly…
Is this a dream? But not even in a dream would this be possible!
What kind of terrifying entity is hidden in the Southern Territory?
It’s over!
The two were instantly filled with despair!
It was a long while before the people at the scene slowly came back to their
Senses.
"Heaven… was everything that just happened real? Who exactly are those two figures? What grade of supreme treasure is that staff?”
A Sect Master mumbled to himself, looking at the scenery around him, seemingly unable to believe it was real.
"A battle that shocked the world… The energy emitted by the weapons of Wu Ming and Cen Ao just now completely surpassed Immortal Artifacts, and those two terrifying figures surpassed Immortals… Yet, they were annihilated by a single strike?”
"What on earth is going on… Behind the Divine Sword Sect and Luofu Holy Land, there are such terrifying entities hidden… Who is the eminent person behind Lu Rang and Long Zixuan?”
"Is everything over now?”
For a moment, everyone began talking, coming back to their senses but still in extreme shock and disbelief of everything in front of them!
"Brother Luofu… What on earth is going on?” Cihang Saint Lord asked Luofu Holy Master, her heart filled with countless doubts!
“…I sensed from those two mysterious figures the same aura that destroyed Leiyin Temple in the Western Desert, the Divine Sword Sect and the Luofu Holy Land, we deserve an explanation!”
Saint Teacher Kongming from the Western Desert’s face no longer held its usual kindness, replaced with solemn anger!
Dugu Chenlu spoke harshly,
“If I’m not sensing this wrongly, these two are the hidden hands behind the destruction of countless Holy Lands across the four territories!”
At these words, everyone at the scene stared intently at Cao Yijian and the others!
Cao Yijian and the Luofu Holy Master both looked exceedingly troubled at this point.
Without the protection of a True Immortal, and the peerless talents that had just emerged in their sects also dead…
Especially, realizing that there was indeed an existence capable of annihilating True Immortals in the Southern Territory, and now, they had made an enemy of it… They were virtually wishing for death.
But now, they could only brazen it out, with the Luofu Holy Master saying,
“All of this has nothing to do with our two sects, we know nothing!”
"Yes, we are completely unaware… Everything that happened just now has
Nothing to do with us!”
Cao Yijian also hurriedly spoke up.
Both of them were old foxes, understanding that the situation had completely inverted… Their biggest reliance was gone!
We must disassociate ourselves, or else Divine Sword Sect and Luofu Holy Land might both bring disaster upon themselves!
"Unrelated to you?”
At this moment, Saint Lord Lingchao spoke coldly,
“Sounds easy! You thinkyou can simply shirk responsibility with just a few words?”
Yuanyang Holy Lord was even colder,
“Now that the truth is out, Divine Sword Sect and Luofu Holy Land have colluded with the masterminds behind the scenes, attempting to destroy the Southern Territory just as they sought to overthrow the four major territories, an unforgivable crime!” Everyone present looked icily at the Luofu Holy Master and Cao Yijian! Under the watchful eyes of all, witnessing with their own eyes, no one would believe their smooth talk.
They’ve now become public enemies!
Without those masterminds behind the scenes, there was no need for the great forces of Xuantian Realm to flee to the Southern Territory.
That Luofu Holy Land and Divine Sword Sect had colluded with them… Incurred the wrath of the masses!
"Qian Ning, the Divine Maiden, Ling’er, the Divine Maiden, how should Divine Sword Sect and Luofu Holy Land be dealt with? Does Senior Li have any instructions?”
Saint Lord Lingchao looked towards the two women, Mu Qianning.
Mu Qianning shook her head,
“Senior Li did not say, but, since they have colluded with the masterminds, I think Senior Li will certainly not forgive them.”
"Please make the decision yourselves, Venerables.”
She was kind-hearted, but it didn’t mean she was foolish.
"Good!”
Saint Lord Lingchao immediately said,
“From today forth, within Xuantian Realm, there is no longer Luofu Holy Land nor Divine Sword Sect!” These words, were as good as announcing the death sentence of Divine Sword Sect and Luofu Holy Land!
Upon hearing this, everyone present shuddered.
And the faces of Cao Yijian and the Luofu Holy Master turned utterly pale!
Had it come to this in the end…
Even their entire sect would be implicated…
What did it matter that they were Almost Immortals now? Even True Immortals had been reduced to dust, even if they could withstand Taiyan Holy Land and Ziyang Holy Land, could they withstand the fury of that existence behind the Southern Territory?
That terrifying existence, with just a flick of a finger, could erase all enemies…
“No… How could my Luofu Holy Land be destroyed because of this…” The Luofu Holy Master’s face showed pain, and suddenly, a furious light flashed in his eyes!
In the next moment, he suddenly made his move, appearing before Mu Qianning with unparalleled speed and reaching out to grab her!
Seeing this, Cao Yijian also instantly understood and immediately followed suit!
-They had all seen that it was Mu Qianning who truly decided their fate. As long as they captured Mu Qianning, using her as leverage, they could negotiate terms!
The sudden move by the two Almost Immortals caught everyone off guard!
Taken by surprise!
Mu Qianning was startled as well!
But she immediately extended her hand and slid the wooden hairpin from her hair, drawing it forward—
"Pfft.pfft—”
Suddenly, blood sprayed!
The very Cao Yijian and Luofu Holy Master who had just appeared before her both now had a line of blood on their throats, with blood spraying out!
In their dying eyes, a look of utter disbelief, as if they couldn’t believe that they were being killed by a girl who wasn’t even a Supreme…
With two thuds, the two Almost Immortals fell to the ground, as if prostrating themselves before Mu Qianning in a grand gesture of submission.
But they, of course, would not be able to stand again.
Dead, completely!
The people surrounding them were dumbstruck.
The two Almost Immortals, striking at a Venerable, didn’t even come close and turned into corpses…
"That wooden hairpin… is also an extremely terrifying Immortal Artifact?!”
Someone murmured, utterly numb with shock!
What’s become of this world? Are Immortal Artifacts as common as dirt now?!
One after another, each capable of slaughtering immortals…
