"What, what did you say?"
Qin Wu Ming was taken aback, looking at Li Xuan.
"It means you're endearingly foolish. How have people like you survived until today?" Li Xuan was also surprised when Qin Wu Ming questioned him.
"Ahhh! Senior Jiu Ku, I want him dead! I want him dead!" Qin Wu Ming shouted.
Old Monster Jiu Ku frowned slightly but still walked forward. He looked at Li Xuan and said faintly, "I take people's money and resolve their troubles. Don't worry, a mere beginner in the God Extinguishing Realm. This old man hasn't even put it in his eyes yet."
"Kid, when you reincarnate next time, remember not to be so arrogant. Accept death." Old Monster Jiu Ku cackled, and before Li Xuan could prepare, he waved his hand, and a massive palm instantly covered Li Xuan.
"Let you taste my Cold Blood Fiendish Palm! You can be proud to die under my Cold Blood Fiendish Palm." After the first strike, Old Monster Jiu Ku did not continue attacking, clearly brimming with pride in his own strength.
What! Cold Blood Fiendish Palm!
That was Old Monster Jiu Ku's renowned ultimate skill!
It was said that those struck by this palm would have their bodies frozen by a chilling force, and their spiritual energy would also be sealed, leaving them at the mercy of their opponent!
Never did they expect Old Monster Jiu Ku to use it from the start, evidently intending to end the fight in one move. Hu Xue Man's beautiful eyes revealed a hint of worry as she anxiously watched Li Xuan's reaction.
"Arrogant old fool! Overlord Fist Unrivaled!"
Li Xuan snorted coldly and punched towards the giant palm.
"Ignorant brat, naive and arrogant. Do you think a mere mortal like you can directly confront my Cold Blood Fiendish Palm?" Old Monster Jiu Ku sneered dismissively, watching Li Xuan.
It was as if Li Xuan would be defeated by his attack the next moment.
But then Old Monster Jiu Ku's eyes widened in disbelief.
Li Xuan, shimmering with golden light all over his body, struck the massive palm with his fist. The two spiritual energies collided, erupting with astonishing power. However, it wasn't long before the giant palm shattered like a mirror and then vanished into nothingness.
He actually broke my Cold Blood Fiendish Palm, damn it! Although I only used five layers of my power, it was still broken.
Old Monster Jiu Ku felt his face lose all color. His previously smug expression gradually turned cold.
"It seems I underestimated you. However, you won't be so lucky next time." Old Monster Jiu Ku declared, his spiritual energy radiating outwards, a powerful aura emanating from his body. Hu Xue Man, standing closest to Li Xuan, immediately felt immense pressure.
"Are you alright? Retreat to the couch, leave this to me." Li Xuan blocked Old Monster Jiu Ku's pressure and said with a smile to Hu Xue Man.
"Thank you, I'm fine. You... you be careful." Hu Xue Man clearly felt the pressure on her lessen, realizing that the person before her was shielding her. Seeing him smiling at her, her face couldn't help but blush, and her heart suddenly skipped a beat for no reason.
Li Xuan nodded gently and turned away. Unbeknownst to him, Hu Xue Man was captivated by that casual turn, lost in thought. Gazing at Li Xuan on the couch, her eyes gradually grew hazy.
"Still thinking about romance at a time like this, how arrogant! Brat, prepare to meet your end!" Old Monster Jiu Ku, enraged by Li Xuan's disregard for him, conversing with Hu Xue Man under his pressure, felt a surge of anger.
Spiritual energy filled his entire body, causing it to swell. He then transformed into an afterimage and lunged at Li Xuan.
Li Xuan was speechless but remained completely focused. Channeling his physical strength, his body erupted with powerful force as he met the charge.
The two figures collided, unleashing astonishing power. Immense pressure descended, crushing everyone on the ground to their knees, struggling to hold on.
Boom!
The two figures collided once more, then hovered in mid-air. Their eyes were fixed on each other. Li Xuan's clothes were disheveled, and a trickle of blood seeped from his lips, but his eyes were remarkably exhilarated.
In contrast, Old Monster Jiu Ku appeared unharmed, yet his body bore numerous fist marks.
Old Monster Jiu Ku's face was grim, his gaze uncertain. He hadn't expected this brat's physique to be so formidable, and he couldn't gain any advantage.
"No wonder you dare to confront me, it's all thanks to your powerful physique. I must say, kid, your physical strength is the strongest I've seen among young people in years. However, don't get cocky. The gap between our realms cannot be bridged by sheer physical prowess alone!"
Old Monster Jiu Ku used his spiritual energy to suppress the surging Qi within his body. Although he appeared outwardly unaffected, only he knew the truth.
Old Monster Jiu Ku understood that while he seemed to have the upper hand, if the fight continued, he would be the one to lose. Every punch from Li Xuan contained a strange fluctuation that made his blood and Qi churn.
What a peculiar brat! Old Monster Jiu Ku forced himself to swallow the lump of stagnant blood in his throat, channeling his spiritual energy to his body to repair himself. If it weren't for fear of losing face, he would have already spat out that mouthful of blood.
"I say, old man, are you still fighting? If you want to concede, you can just say it. I'm a magnanimous person and won't make things difficult for you." Li Xuan was somewhat excited, clearly feeling his realm steadily consolidating.
"Arrogant brat. This old man originally intended to spare you, considering your youth and potential as a good seedling. I thought your cultivation was hard-won and wanted to let you go, but you are ungrateful. You dare to mock me. Today, I will show you my true power!"
As Old Monster Jiu Ku spoke, torrents of spiritual energy erupted from his body, blotting out the sky, reaching ten thousand feet high. Clearly, he intended to crush Li Xuan with sheer spiritual power.
"Kid, die!"
Seeing Old Monster Jiu Ku preparing to suppress him with spiritual energy, Li Xuan looked at him and chuckled strangely.
Then, with a thought, his Sword of the Master appeared in his hand.
