Chapter 64: The War God Technique (Part 2)

Even the Zhou Hall Master, who was lying on the ground, somehow found the strength to roll and crawl out of the Stone Washing Valley.

"Senior Brother, you, you, you must escape quickly." After the enforcement team disciples and the Zhou Hall Master fled, Luo Fenghua and the others came to their senses and immediately realized they had caused a disaster. Killing a hall master and slaughtering a protector—such actions would be considered major crimes, even capital offenses, in any sect or lineage!

"Escape? Why should I escape?" Li Qiyi said calmly. His demeanor did not resemble someone who had just killed four people; it was as if he had just done something trivial.

"But, you, you killed Hu Protector and the others." Luo Fenghua and the others could not help but feel a chill. At this moment, they understood what it meant to be a ruthless person. Luo Fenghua's heart was pounding. Fortunately, when he provoked his Senior Brother that day, the Senior Brother did not take it to heart; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable! The Senior Brother treated the killing of a protector and a hall master as a light breeze; what would it matter to kill a disciple?

"This is self-defense, not murder," Li Qiyi said with a smile.

The disciples of the Stone Washing Valley were speechless. With such a grave offense, it seemed impossible to escape a death sentence, yet the Senior Brother acted as if nothing had happened.

At this moment, Li Qiyi looked at Tu Buyu and said, "It's a very good divine technique." "The War God Technique" was an unforgettable memory; Tu Buyu had actually cultivated "The War God Technique"! This was indeed a surprising turn of events.

"I dare not, I dare not. Compared to Senior Brother's immortal technique, my skills are mere trifles," Tu Buyu said with a gentle smile.

Li Shuangyan's eyes narrowed. "The War God Technique" might have been forgotten by the current disciples of the Xianyan Ancient Sect, or perhaps they had never even heard of it. However, she had heard a legend that when Emperor Mingren was young, he cultivated "The War God Technique." The legend said that this technique ran through Emperor Mingren's entire life! Moreover, it was rumored to be an ancient and extremely powerful technique from ancient times.

However, for some unknown reason, after Emperor Mingren became the Emperor, he did not pass down this technique. None of Emperor Mingren's disciples had cultivated it. Even his own destiny secret technique, which he passed down to his disciples and left in the Xianyan Ancient Sect, did not include "The War God Technique." This had always been a mystery.

Li Qiyi just smiled at Tu Buyu's words and his ambiguous attitude, saying, "Whether it's the War God Technique or the God Slaying Technique, it doesn't matter what technique you cultivate. What matters is that you don't block my path. Otherwise, I will show no mercy!"

"Senior Brother, you are too harsh." Tu Buyu quickly said, "Senior Brother is wise and valiant, a genius. I have always looked up to you. If you give an order, I will not hesitate to face any danger."

Tu Buyu's words left the disciples of the Stone Washing Valley speechless. Tu Buyu was clearly much older than Li Qiyi, even old enough to be his grandfather, but he did not hesitate to flatter him.

"I always thought Huairen's sycophancy was unmatched, but it seems Huairen has met his match today," Li Qiyi glanced at Tu Buyu. In fact, for him, whether Tu Buyu's words were true or false was no longer important.

Li Qiyi's words did not anger Tu Buyu; he still smiled gently, making him inscrutable and mysterious.

"Traitor, die!" At this moment, a roar echoed throughout the Stone Washing Valley. A giant hand descended from the sky, capable of crushing everything in the Stone Washing Valley in an instant.

Cao Xiong had arrived. Upon hearing that his disciple had been killed, he was enraged. As soon as he reached the Stone Washing Valley, he attacked Li Qiyi. At this moment, Cao Xiong was like a raging lion, his presence overwhelming, and every breath he took made people feel suffocated.

Cao Xiong's giant hand, carrying the force of a thousand tons, could crush the entire Stone Washing Valley with one strike! A true hero, having reached such a realm, could make the earth tremble with a single step! He was a mighty lord.

When Cao Xiong attacked, his giant hand descended, and the disciples of the Stone Washing Valley were terrified, their faces pale and bloodless. A hero's anger could cause rivers of blood to flow. A hero's strike could shatter mountains and rivers!

"Open!" A delicate cry, and Li Shuangyan, standing beside Li Qiyi, acted. In an instant, Li Shuangyan stood alone, her entire body resembling a blooming lotus, each petal crystal-clear and radiant. More terrifyingly, the petals were so large that they could support the sky. When the lotus bloomed, it could open up the nine heavens and ten earths.

With a "bang," without any visible movement, Li Shuangyan easily supported Cao Xiong's giant hand, preventing it from descending further.

Li Shuangyan, born with the Clear Green Body, had long achieved perfection in the Clear Green Body, one of the twenty-four imperial bodies. She was now cultivating the Jade Clear Body, one of the eighteen holy bodies, and had made significant progress!

With the Clear Green Body perfected and elevated to the Jade Clear Body, her body's power was like a blooming lotus, blocking Cao Xiong's strike with an incomprehensible strength.

"Princess Li, this is an internal matter of the Xianyan Ancient Sect. You should not interfere!" With his disciple killed, how could Cao Xiong not be enraged?

Although Cao Xiong did not dare to confront Li Shuangyan, his words were still full of confidence.

However, Li Shuangyan did not say a word. Her body's power, like a blooming lotus, blocked Cao Xiong, making his face turn red with anger. As a mighty hero, he was still no match for Li Shuangyan.

This was not because Cao Xiong was weak. Who was Li Shuangyan? A direct disciple of the Sun Demon Emperor, the princess of the Ancient Bull Territory, and the pride of the Central Domain. Not just in the Central Domain, but in the entire Human Emperor Realm, she was a renowned figure among the young generation.

"The Nine Holy Demon Sect, indeed lives up to its name!" At this moment, a cold voice echoed, and a figure stepped forward. As soon as he appeared, the stars and constellations shifted, and his blood energy flooded the entire Stone Washing Valley. His regal aura was like a thousand sharp swords, piercing through the body.

"Guest Elder!" The disciples of the Stone Washing Valley were shocked, and one of them cried out.

Guest Elder Dong Shenglong, known as the first person of the Xianyan Ancient Sect, a seasoned regal figure, made many people draw a cold breath as soon as he appeared. In the Xianyan Ancient Sect, a regal figure was almost invincible, let alone a seasoned regal figure like Dong Shenglong, who had been bestowed the title of regal by the Human Emperor!

As soon as Dong Shenglong appeared, he took a step, and the great path resonated. The ground beneath his feet formed a pattern of the great path, driving the momentum of the mountains and rivers, and using the vast essence of the earth beneath the Xianyan Ancient Sect to press towards Li Shuangyan. The pattern was like a vast and rolling tide, a bull turning over, causing a shock throughout the entire Xianyan Ancient Sect.

Li Shuangyan's eyes turned cold, and she deftly moved her hand, like a slender dragon slaying a dragon. With one strike, she blocked Dong Shenglong's pattern. With a "boom," the impact shook the entire Stone Washing Valley, and a huge crack appeared in the ground.

Dong Shenglong's eyes also turned cold. As soon as he attacked, he knew he had met his match. This made him inwardly shocked. For Li Shuangyan to reach the regal realm at such a young age, her talent was truly terrifying. After all, the Dao Difficult Era had just ended, and Li Shuangyan had already reached the regal realm, a talent that was indeed frightening.

"Brother Dong, what is worth your trouble!" At this moment, a deep voice echoed, and five figures descended from the sky. They were the Great Elder and the other five elders!

The Great Elder arrived, and Dong Shenglong retracted his step, slowly saying, "Brother Gu, your sect's traitor is ruthless. I merely intended to assist your sect."

Cao Xiong, like the Great Elder, had received reports from the disciples and knew that a major event had occurred, so he had come with the other elders.

At this moment, Li Shuangyan retracted her body's power, and as the lotus disappeared, Cao Xiong roared, "Traitor, die!" and immediately attacked Li Qiyi.

However, Li Qiyi did not even blink at Cao Xiong's attack.

But the Great Elder immediately blocked Cao Xiong, saying in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Cao, do not be hasty. Let's hear what Qiyi has to say."

"Senior Brother, this is a crime of rebellion and disrespect to the master. What more is there to say? This traitor should be executed to cleanse the sect," Cao Xiong roared.

The Great Elder still said in a deep voice, "Junior Brother Cao, the sect will make a judgment on the matter. Since he has committed a major crime, why rush to take his life? We can execute him after the judgment."

"Brother Gu, this person is not only ruthless and cold-blooded, killing his fellow disciples, but also colluding with outsiders, rebelling against the sect, and plotting against it. The longer he stays, the greater the risk to the Xianyan Ancient Sect," Dong Shenglong added, stirring the pot.

"When did it become the business of outsiders to meddle in the affairs of the Xianyan Ancient Sect! The internal affairs of the Xianyan Ancient Sect are not for outsiders to comment on," Li Qiyi, the main character in this storm, said leisurely, "The affairs of the Xianyan Ancient Sect are not for you to meddle in. If you know what's good for you, shut your mouth!"

Li Qiyi's eyes were fixed on Dong Shenglong, undoubtedly a direct provocation.

Li Qiyi's words frightened Luo Fenghua and the others. This was a matter of life and death. After killing the hall master and the protector, he was now provoking a regal guest elder. This was courting death! Luo Fenghua and the others were so frightened that they were speechless. Was the Senior Brother not satisfied with the magnitude of the situation? He had even offended Dong Shenglong.

"If I am an outsider, what about Princess Li beside you?" At this moment, Dong Shenglong's eyes turned cold, and he said in a threatening tone, "Young man, you collude with outsiders and plot against the sect. How dare you speak so arrogantly!"

"Which old turtle is babbling in front of me!" Li Qiyi was extremely annoyed by Dong Shenglong's appearance and said, "The Xianyan Ancient Sect and the Nine Holy Demon Sect are in a marriage alliance, which is no secret. Princess Li can be considered one of us! What, does the marriage alliance between the Xianyan Ancient Sect and the Nine Holy Demon Sect make the Holy Heaven Sect nervous, so they sent you, this old turtle, to sow discord between our two sects? It seems that this old turtle is the one who incited the traitor of the Xianyan Ancient Sect to plot against me, to disrupt the marriage alliance between our two sects."
