Chapter 1441 - 1445: Man and Sword as One

"Then go, as long as you don't get your soul scattered into nothingness, I can save you. But remember, you absolutely cannot let them hit your little bunny. You're still growing; if you get hit there and don't grow up properly, you'll look bad in the future!"

Seeing Xing Qing so stubborn, Yun Hao stopped trying to block her and just gave a few very serious reminders.

"Master, you're bad!"

Xing Qing shot Yun Hao a charming glare, then gripped the Abyss Rainbow Sword, took a step forward, and faced Elder Li, who was at the Peak of Ninth Grade!

"What's the meaning of this? Are you looking down on me, old man that I am?"

Seeing that his opponent was actually a little girl, Elder Li couldn't help but shout loudly.

"Old geezer, stop yelling. To deal with a clown like you, there's no need for my master to make a move. I alone am enough to beat you!"

Xing Qing snorted arrogantly, looking proudly at Elder Li, that Peak of Ninth Grade opponent opposite her!

"Xiu Yun, didn't expect that after these thousands of years, not only has your strength fallen so much, even your courage has shrunk this much. Sending a little girl out to fight—what a joke for the world to laugh at!"

When Cheng Fangtian saw that Yun Hao's side had sent Xing Qing into battle, he also couldn't help but mock loudly.

"Retard, wanna come test this young lady's skills? See if I can chop you in half with one sword?"

Before Yun Hao could speak, Xing Qing snorted coldly, looking at Cheng Fangtian with utter disdain.

Seeing this flagrantly arrogant, eyes-to-the-sky Xing Qing, Yun Hao was satisfied to the extreme!

Leaving aside how Xing Qing's Cultivation was, or how much of his abilities she'd learned.

Just this attitude of not putting anyone in her eyes alone meant she'd already learned seven or eight-tenths of him!

"I can't be bothered to fuss with a little brat."

Hearing Xing Qing's provocation, Cheng Fangtian let out a disdainful laugh.

Anyway, he was the Deputy Sect Leader of the Moon Gazing Sect in the Immortal Realm; he really didn't need to lower himself to argue with a little girl from the Lower Realm.

Win or lose, once it spread back to the Immortal Realm, those people would definitely laugh at him.

That kind of disgrace, he couldn't afford!

"Then shut up!"

Xing Qing shouted coldly, then pointed the Abyss Rainbow Sword in her hand straight at Elder Li.

"Old thief, come over here and die!"

Whoosh!

With just these few short sentences, Xing Qing boosted her arrogant attitude by a whole level.

Way too cocky!

Being so full of herself at such a young age—really okay?

Not to mention, she was a girl. Isn't she afraid she won't find a boyfriend later?

The disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect, hearing Xing Qing's insanely arrogant words, couldn't help but shake their heads, feeling she was just a cannon fodder willingly stepping up to die!

Merely Early Stage of Eighth Grade Cultivation, and she really thinks she's invincible?

She actually dares to brag about challenging Elder Li at the Peak of Ninth Grade—she really doesn't know life from death!

You have to know, even in the Immortal Realm where powerhouses are everywhere, Elder Li is definitely one of the top of the top.

There are so many Sect Leaders of various Sects who have to be utterly respectful when they see Elder Li!

Don't be fooled by the fact that Elder Li is just an Outer Sect Elder.

But within the Moon Gazing Sect—

New disciples who want to join the Moon Gazing Sect must first pass the Outer Sect trials!

And Elder Li is the one guarding the final checkpoint.

In other words, whether a Cultivator who wants to enter the Sect can pass the Moon Gazing Sect's trial and become a disciple of the Moon Gazing Sect is all decided by Elder Li alone.

Only by passing the trial and joining the Outer Sect will they have the chance, in the Sect's selections, to be promoted to the Inner Sect and become a true disciple of the Moon Gazing Sect!

On top of that, in the Immortal Realm's overall Sect power rankings, the Moon Gazing Sect is fifth in comprehensive strength, the fifth largest Sect in the Immortal Realm.

So, plenty of little Sects' Sect Leaders were breaking their heads trying to get their descendants placed into the Moon Gazing Sect to learn Immortal Techniques and hopefully cling to the big tree that is the Moon Gazing Sect!

Because of that, Elder Li's status became even more firmly entrenched.

Thus, upon hearing Xing Qing's outrageous words, the many disciples of the Moon Gazing Sect simply looked down on her.

And the disciples of the Cultivation Cloud Sect, upon hearing Xing Qing's words—

Though they didn't show it outwardly,

Inside, they also felt she was far too arrogant.

They simply didn't believe Xing Qing really had the ability to defeat Elder Li.

In fact, in their hearts, they felt Xing Qing didn't even have the qualifications to fight Elder Li.

She was just young, having worshipped a ruthless figure like Yun Hao as her master, so she'd gotten a bit full of herself, that's all!

Yun Hao stood with his hands clasped behind his back, not bothering with everyone's opinions, just watching Xing Qing with satisfaction.

"Little girl, get lost. This is where adults fight to the death. Who said you had the qualification to come out and play?"

Hearing Xing Qing's words, Elder Li bellowed, slowly releasing the aura within his body.

He hoped to use the Peak of Ninth Grade pressure to force Xing Qing into retreat without a fight!

Feeling the terrifying pressure radiating from Elder Li, the surrounding crowd, while shocked at the mighty power of the Peak of Ninth Grade, became even more convinced that Xing Qing absolutely did not have the qualifications to fight Elder Li.

"Hmph, petty tricks!"

Xing Qing shouted crisply, and the Abyss Rainbow Sword in her hand slashed forward.

Pop!

In an instant, there was a sound like a balloon bursting.

Immediately after, the crowd around them felt that the terrifying pressure emanating from Elder Li had actually vanished!

This…

Could this have been done by that little girl?

Isn't this a bit too unbelievable?

Some experts with deeper Cultivation already had their expressions changed at this moment.

From initial disbelief, they became hesitant, and then now, completely shocked!

One by one, they stared at Xing Qing as if they'd seen a ghost—or rather, stared at the Abyss Rainbow Sword in her hand.

In that instant just now, they clearly sensed that Xing Qing had actually merged into one with the sword in her hand.

At that moment, Xing Qing was the Abyss Rainbow Sword, and the Abyss Rainbow Sword was Xing Qing!

True Man and Sword as One!

At such a young age, how could her comprehension of Swordsmanship be so profound?

If she were given some more time, even Mo Wen, the number one Swordsmanship expert in the Immortal Realm, might end up being surpassed by her!

Elder Li, who had tried to scare Xing Qing off with his powerful aura, had his eyes full of shock!

Although Xing Qing was only at the Early Stage of Eighth Grade Cultivation,

Just based on that single sword strike just now, he dared guarantee:

Among all the Cultivators present below Ninth Grade, there were not many who could take that sword of Xing Qing's and remain unharmed!

"Didn't expect you had some real skill. Then I'll see just what Realm your Man and Sword as One has reached!"

Elder Li's expression gradually turned serious.

He absolutely didn't want to suffer defeat at the hands of a little girl!

If that happened, even if he ended up winning in the end, once he returned to the Moon Gazing Sect, those people would definitely badmouth him behind his back!
