Library of Heaven's Path 2: Eternal Fate of the Heavens

Chapter 218 Mo Baiye Dies

By this time, there was no point in pretending any longer. Obey and speak more, or face death if you resist.

Of course, the most important reason was that the other party had been persistently hunting Empyrean Kong. Once Empyrean Kong acquired the fragments of the heavens, they would inevitably become enemies sooner or later. Thus, if they must be killed, then there should be no mercy.

"You... You actually killed Master Shi?"

"A Galaxy 7-dan Saint 7-dan pinnacle just died like that?"

Not only was Shi Yunjing in disbelief, but all the surrounding people were also stunned, their teeth chattering, unable to believe their own eyes.

"I said today Mo Baiye must die, anyone else wants to save him?"

Zhang Xuan couldn't be bothered with idle talk and continued forward. Those who had initially stood in front of Mo Baiye now trembled, lacking the courage they had just moments ago.

The others owed him only a small sum of money, an amount that could be earned back with a few months of hard work. If they were to lose their lives over it, it certainly wouldn't be worth it.

"I'm not really acquainted with Mo Baiye... if you want to kill him, then kill him!"

"I'm not close with him either!"

The few who had blocked the way turned and left, whereas Du Xinyu and the others came forward.

He and Mo Baiye were part of the same group. If the latter were to die, they would certainly not escape either.

"Let's attack together!"

Before they even got close, Du Xinyu shouted, and from a distance, his Simple Blade came slashing through the air.

During this journey to Zhilan Valley, he had also gained tremendous benefits. Now at the peak of Galaxy 7-dan, his blade trembled, and multiple glints of the saber broke through the void.

This was his signature move, Autumn Leaf Blade.

With one slash, the Blade Wind was like autumn leaves, unpredictable and almost impossible to defend against.

"So powerful..."

"Truly deserving of an offensive fragments of the heavens. If it were me facing it, I would not last even half a move!"

Saber and sword arts, both offensive-type fragments of the heavens with strong combat capabilities. Du Xinyu already had high cultivation, and with full power unleashed, exclamations of awe erupted all around.

Just when everyone thought Zhang Xuan would certainly be at a disadvantage, they saw him step forward slightly, his sword stabbing out at a strange angle.

The movement wasn't fast and lacked dazzling sword qi but in an instant, it pierced through Du Xinyu's defense and arrived in front of him.

"You..."

His pupils constricted. Du Xinyu could no longer continue his attack and hastily retreated, while shouting out without hesitation, "Attack now!"

"Yes!"

From not far away, Su Chen, Wen Lingxun, Mu Hongtao, and others hesitated no longer and simultaneously launched their attacks.

Four Galaxy 6-dan peak Saints, together with one Galaxy 7-dan pinnacle, unleashed a force as tumultuous as raging waves, forming a massive barrier in front of Zhang Xuan.

"So many people teaming up against one junior, shameless..."

A loud shout rang out as Fu Qingyao leaped forward.

"Elder Qingyao, there's no need for you to trouble yourself with this. A few clowns, easily crushed by my sole hand..."

Zhang Xuan smiled lightly.

His cultivation had reached the peak of Galaxy 6-dan and, having crossed hands with them before, the Library of Heaven's Path had already recorded their Defects. He didn't need any help.

"Can you handle it on your own?"

Fu Qingyao was somewhat worried, but before her words finished, the youth's sword flicked, severing Su Chen's throat. In the next moment, with a burst of strength from his palm, Mu Hongtao broke apart and was sent flying, his chest exploding even before he landed.

Two Galaxy 6-dan peak Saints died in an instant.

The mightiest warriors of Zouyi City were like chickens and dogs in front of him, not worth mentioning.

Having killed those two, Zhang Xuan pressed onward. The Cold Nether Sword shone brilliantly, like the clouds at the edge of the sky, reflecting the seven-colored Flowing Light, radiating dazzling splendor.

Puchi! Puchi! Puchi!

A series of muffled groans followed, with Du Xinyu stumbling backward repeatedly, his hands, legs, and chest streaming with fresh blood.

Even as a Galaxy 7-dan Peak master, surrounded and under attack, it took only seven or eight breaths for him to sustain grievous injuries.

"The Bronze Tripod is yours... We don't want it anymore! Mo Baiye, if you want to kill, then kill..."

Knowing that if he persisted, death might follow, Du Xinyu dared not linger and turned to flee. At the same time, his wrist flipped, and the enormous Bronze Tripod appeared, which he threw straight at Zhang Xuan.

It seemed he intended to take advantage of the moment Zhang Xuan caught the cauldron to make his escape.

However, he guessed wrong. Seeing the cauldron flying towards him, Zhang Xuan didn't even bother to catch it, much less look at it. He leaped aside, and his sword, like a shooting star, struck down again.

Puchi!

In Du Xinyu's eyes widened with fear, blood trailed from his forehead, and his body fell to the ground.

The next moment, the storage rings were likewise taken by Zhang Xuan.

With the person dead, naturally, the artifacts couldn't be wasted.

A cultivator of such strength, particularly from the Ten Thousand Sabers Alliance, was sure to have no shortage of valuable treasures.

"Everyone attack together, this Zhang Xuan is actually a rebel..."

Seeing Du Xinyu killed, knowing he was doomed, Mo Baiye shouted explosively. Continue reading on My Virtual Library Empire

However, before the words "the rebel" could leave his mouth, a sword had already embedded itself into his throat, shaking incessantly.

It turned out that Zhang Xuan, seeing him speak, had thrown the sword in hand.

This sword moved with the speed of a meteor, and despite his rapid speech, he couldn't finish.

His eyes bulged as he desperately tried to utter the last two words, but alas, air kept escaping from his throat, and he could no longer say anything.

Thump!

His body also fell to the ground.

It was only at the moment of death that he understood: had he not coveted the opponent's cultivation methods, he wouldn't have met such a tragic end.

"All right, is there anyone else who wants to kill me?"

Having slashed Mo Baiye, and those who wanted to help him, Zhang Xuan then cast his gaze around, his look stern. A moment later, his eyes settled on Mu Xiaoqing, the Holy Daughter of the Bamboo Forest Sect.

"I..."

Mu Xiaoqing stepped back in retreat, her face ashen.

By all accounts, after having her sect leader killed and her resources seized by him, she should seek revenge, but... even the Galaxy 7-dan Peak master Du Xinyu was effortlessly slain, and with her strength, even twenty more years of practice would not make her a match for him.

"I... The Bamboo Forest Sect is willing to offer all resources in exchange for forgiveness!"

Biting her lip, Mu Xiaoqing took off her storage ring and handed it over.

Seeing this woman was at least sensible, Zhang Xuan had no desire to waste words. He accepted the ring and casually tossed it into the Suspended Realm, dismissively waving his hand.

He only targeted people who sought to kill him, and since she hadn't really taken action, he couldn't be bothered to reprimand her.

After settling the hidden threat, Zhang Xuan finally breathed a sigh of relief and looked towards the Bronze Tripod that Du Xinyu had thrown. At this moment, Shen Ling cautiously approached.

"Zhang Xuan, as per our earlier agreement, the Bronze Tripod should belong to me, right?"

If before he felt the one before him was merely a young generation with some talent, who perhaps had fortuitously gained some strength and was not to be taken too seriously,

now he saw that his opponent had successively slain two Galaxy 7-dan masters and several Galaxy 6-dan Peak masters in just a few dozen breaths. He dared not underestimate Zhang Xuan any longer. Instead, in his heart, he now saw him as a major threat.

"Of course, take it!" said Zhang Xuan, with a gesture of his hand.
