Chapter 1079 - Peerless Grace
Chapter 1079: Peerless Grace
Little Red hid in a corner of the garden, deep in thought as he looked at the old man a few times. Gongxi Kuangdao, who had bandaged his wounds, also had a serious expression on his face as he thought about something.
“You’re courting death!” Huangfu Qingjue’s eyes didn’t show any surprise as he shouted coldly. His clothes fluttered despite the lack of wind as he released a majestic aura. His sword slashed down from the sky, and ten thousand rays of holy light illuminated the heavens and earth.
The swing of his sword turned his aura more majestic as he seemed to stand taller and prouder.
If Huangfu Qingjue gave off an uncontrollable that drew people’s respect earlier, then he currently gave off a more supreme pressure that gave people no choice but to submit to his sword.
The sword qi flashed through with tens of thousands of lights as it enveloped the old man.
“Ah…!” The old man let out a blood-curdling scream. His figure, which had already turned into nothingness, split into two by the sword. Then, it suddenly exploded, turning into countless fragments of light before disappearing before everyone’s eyes.
Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.
Everyone had their eyes widened. The arrogant old man just now had actually turned into smoke and dust under this sword, truly turning into nothingness.
Everyone felt so insignificant and small like ants in the face of Huangfu Qingjue.
After a long time, everyone came back to their senses. The surroundings were still dead silent, save for the sounds of gasps.
Ling Chuxi was also pleasantly surprised. She could tell that Huangfu Qingjue’s aura and strength were much stronger than before. If she had guessed correctly, a part of his seal had been broken.
Ling Chuxi felt so happy as she looked at the man with peerless grace and aura. This man was her Qingjue..
“Let’s go!” Seeing that the situation turned sour, the men in black scattered and fled in all directions.
Su Yanhua and the others woke up from their shock and quickly chased after them.
“Forget it, let them go.” Ling Chuxi was afraid that there were other experts hidden among them, putting Su Yanhua and the others at a disadvantage.
Although Su Yanhua and the others were unwilling, they also knew the reason they shouldn’t chase after the enemy, so they retreated as ordered.
“Young Master Ling, I’m Zhang Shizhao, the Zhang family clan head in Kai Yuan City. I’m also a descendant of Golden Pill Sect.” Zhang Shizhao recovered from his shock and stepped forward to respectfully greet Huangfu Qingjue. He was in the presence of his own people so he had nothing to hide.
“I’m not Ling Wushang,” said Huangfu Qingjue indifferently. He knew that Zhang Shizhao had assumed that he was Ling Wushang but he didn’t care.
“You’re not Ling Wushang?” Zhang Shizhao couldn’t help but exclaim in shock.
“No, his name is Huangfu Qingjue,” said Ling Chuxi as she stepped forward. Huangfu Qingjue reached out his hand at this time and gently held Ling Chuxi’s.
Although Ling Chuxi didn’t properly introduce Huangfu Qingjue, Zhang Shizhao could guess the relationship between the two just by looking at the tenderness in their eyes as they looked at each other.
“So, this person isn’t Ling Wushang. It seems that Ling Chuxi has another person in her ranks beside Ling Wushang!” Zhang Shizhao started to feel more relieved.
Fortunately, he was quick to admit his mistake to Ling Chuxi. After all, both Ling Wushang and this mysterious Huangfu Qingjue were enough to put the Zhang family in a hopeless situation.
