Chapter 592: Chapter 268: You Talk Too Much!
“Heavens! It’s Luo Cheng!”
In the fifth floor of the tavern, someone who had watched the Three Sects Martial Arts Competition had already etched Luo Cheng’s image in their mind, and instantly recognized him.
“What! He is Luo Cheng! So young!”
“He’s still alive!”
“Unbelievable! He survived being hunted by top Awakening Vein Realm experts. Is this news just a rumor?”
“It must be! Otherwise, it’s too unbelievable!”
The exclamations rose up in unison.
Those who believed Luo Cheng was undoubtedly dead were all stunned, and after calming down, they all thought the news of Luo Cheng being hunted by Mu Qinglian was a rumor, as only this made sense.
Under everyone’s gaze, Luo Cheng calmly walked to the window seat, glanced over the nine people, and his gaze fell on Lu Shaojing, smiling faintly:
“Lu Shaojing, so you’re here too. Truly a narrow path for enemies to meet!”
“You!”
Lu Shaojing felt a shiver run down his spine and involuntarily stepped back two paces.
Seeing this, everyone was very surprised.
Realizing his loss of composure, Lu Shaojing’s face suddenly turned grim and ugly.
A genius of the Xuanhe List retreated in fear from a rising rookie!
If this were to spread, it would undoubtedly be a great loss of face!
However, the shadow left by that battle in the Imperial City was too great; he didn’t dare to look Luo Cheng in the eye.
Looking at Qi Heng and Meng Yunchong beside him, Lu Shaojing finally calmed down a bit.
Both of them were geniuses ranked around two hundred on the Xuanhe List, strong at the Ninth Layer Late Stage of Awakening Vein Realm. With these two around, Luo Cheng wouldn’t be able to stir up much trouble.
Thinking of this, Lu Shaojing took a deep breath, regained his composure, and sneered at Luo Cheng:
“Luo Cheng, I never thought you’d have such a strong life, managing to escape Mu Qinglian’s hunt! Yet, having narrowly escaped with your life, you dare to show yourself so openly, don’t you know what death means?”
“Now with Yun Mengli missing, let’s see who can protect you! This place will be your burial ground!”
“Really? I don’t think so.”
Luo Cheng remained calm, picked up a glass of wine, and took a sip.
Such dismissive behavior immediately enraged the nine core disciples.
Qi Heng frowned deeply, stretched out his hand to stop the others, looked at Luo Cheng with a somewhat oppressive gaze, and said coldly:
“You just said that Qin Yu and the others wouldn’t come, what do you mean?”
Luo Cheng didn’t feel any pressure, glanced at him, and said, “It means what you think it means.”
“You killed them?”
Qi Heng’s eyes glistened with cold light, and anyone could feel the anger of this Xuanhe List genius.
Luo Cheng calmly said, “They tried to kill me. Unfortunately, their skills were lacking.”
“Arrogant! Brother Qi, let me slay him! To avenge Brother Qin Yu and the others!”
The burly young man, who had previously threatened to dismember Luo Cheng, couldn’t hold back his anger and stood up with murderous intent.
Qi Heng did not stop him; dealing with a mere Luo Cheng wasn’t worth him bothering. Killing the opponent wasn’t anything glorious.
Luo Cheng glanced at the burly youth and shook his head, “You’re not qualified. Why don’t all nine of you come at me together!”
Upon hearing this, there was an uproar throughout the fifth floor of the tavern. The strong present gaped in disbelief.
To ask all nine to come at once was to completely disregard them; others might let it pass, but Qi Heng, Meng Yunchong, and Lu Shaojing were all renowned geniuses on the Xuanhe List, yet Luo Cheng dared to be so arrogant!
Bang!
The pale-faced youth beside Qi Heng suddenly darkened his complexion, and the wine glass in his hand shattered, the wine and shards pulverized by powerful Essence Energy!
This was one of the three great Xuanhe List geniuses present, Meng Yunchong, ranked 217th.
“Hahaha! You want all nine of us to attack? Who do you think you are? I alone can butcher you alive!”
The burly youth was completely furious, his face flushed, and his anger and hostility mixed with Essence Energy, erupting as he formed a hand into a sword, slashing it toward Luo Cheng’s face.
This slash had tightly restrained Sword Energy, yet the explosive power it contained was not to be underestimated, giving one the feeling of an impending erupting volcano.
Bam!
Luo Cheng raised a hand to block, Qi Force exploded, and he flew backward out the window like a meteor in reverse, stopping above Mingxia Lake.
Seeing this, the hearts of the observing experts finally settled down.
They had thought that Luo Cheng, intending to take on all nine, had grown so strong in such a short time that he could disregard Xuanhe List experts!
If that were true, it would be truly astounding!
At this moment, the thought vanished, and they believed Luo Cheng had just been speaking in madness.
“Haha! Such big talk, your strength is merely so-so!”
The burly young man laughed wildly.
“Junior Brother Hu, be careful…” Lu Shaojing wanted to warn him. Others might not know, but he knew very well that Luo Cheng’s strength was far beyond this level. His Essence Energy was extraordinarily strong, and combined with understanding a Sword Intent Prototype, even he wasn’t a match!
However, as soon as he spoke, the burly youth had already gone ahead, chasing out.
“Let’s go too; this time don’t let him escape!” Qi Heng said deeply.
“Hehe, just for his earlier words alone, dying ten times wouldn’t be enough!” Meng Yunchong was already enraged by Luo Cheng’s words.
Swish!
The remaining eight core disciples chased after.
“Let’s go see too!”
“It looks like they won’t rest until they’ve killed Luo Cheng today! I wonder if Luo Cheng can escape again this time!”
“The possibility is very slim! These nine are all experts, and there are three major Xuanhe List disciples overseeing it. Especially Qi Heng, from the Qi Family, the cultivation techniques he practices are extraordinary, and his strength rarely has rivals in the same realm. What realm is Luo Cheng?”
The Awakening Vein Realm experts present all rushed out.
On one side were long-established geniuses like Qi Heng, on the other, the newly risen Luo Cheng. This was a clash between new geniuses and the veteran!
Above Mingxia Lake.
Swish!
The burly young man saw Luo Cheng suspended in midair and laughed wildly: “Why don’t you run?”
“I came today to kill you, why would I run?”
Luo Cheng came out because he felt cramped in the tavern.
Here the sky is high and the sea is wide, perfect for killing!
Haha!
“Kill us?”
The burly youth laughed disdainfully. With a clang, he drew the saber from his waist, a meter and a half long with a Flame Cloud Pattern. With this treasured saber in hand, his aura surged, and the saber’s prowess churned, causing waves on Mingxia Lake.
The blade tip pointed directly at Luo Cheng, and the burly youth said, “Come on, let me see how you’re going to kill me!”
“You talk too much!”
Luo Cheng shook his head and struck with his palm.
Bang!
A condensed handprint roared out, tearing through the void.
“Huh? Damn it!!”
The burly youth initially scoffed, but as the handprint neared, sensing its overwhelming and irresistible explosive power, his face immediately turned pale. With a shout, he desperately wielded his saber to strike it down.
In the next moment.
Boom!
The saber light shattered, and along with it, the burly youth’s body shattered into pieces, flesh and bones splintered, and a rain of blood poured down from the sky!
