“Hiss—”

All around, only the sound of sharp intakes of breath and heavy breathing remained.

Watching the Blood Sect's four great protectors turn into puffs of blood mist before her very eyes, Daoist Dian Lian was plunged into utter disarray.

"This, this, how is this possible? What is Chen En Gong's cultivation realm? Killing ordinary people is one thing, but why is killing an Initial Daoist peak, a Golden Core expert, so easy?"

At that moment, Dian Lian was very grateful that she hadn't said anything excessive to Chen En Gong earlier. Otherwise, she too would have become part of the dust in the air.

The Blood Sect Master, Shi Kai, had veins throbbing on his forehead, and his expression changed drastically. The moment after Chen Xiao killed the four great protectors, he turned and ran.

Before Chen Xiao's divine sense could lock onto him, his figure suddenly began to become illusory, and then transformed into a pool of semi-liquid, blood-red fluid.

"It's Blood Pool, the Blood Sect Master's unique secret technique!"

Dian Lian recognized it at a glance and loudly pointed out Shi Kai's method.

Lin Qian stared at the fluid-like substance, her mind filled with turbulent waves: "My God! People can turn into this? If the technicians mastered this technique… then the clients would be ecstatic to death?"

Chen Xiao smiled playfully. The Blood Pool that Shi Kai unleashed was a decent technique.

It was somewhat similar to his Azure Saint Body; ordinary spells would lose their effectiveness against cultivators in the Blood Pool state.

Of course, it was only similar in nature. The Azure Saint Body could not be compared to this kind of heretical technique like the Blood Pool.

After all, the Azure Saint Body was a physique, a passive skill, while the Blood Pool needed to be actively activated.

And judging by the extent of his spiritual energy consumption, a Golden Core cultivator simply couldn't sustain it for long.

"The technique is not bad, but how dare a mere Golden Core expert display his clumsy skills in front of me?"

Chen Xiao smiled proudly and said disdainfully.

Hearing this, Dian Lian was completely dumbfounded. A mere Golden Core? She had to know that in the entire Lotus Monastery, there was only one Golden Core cultivator, the Monastery Head.

Of course, comparisons are odious. Given Chen En Gong's strength, it was understandable for him to say such arrogant words.

These thoughts flashed through Dian Lian's mind. She then saw Chen Xiao point his halberd at the pool of blood, and a dark golden true essence power instantly struck it.

Sizzle—

The Blood Pool that Shi Kai had transformed into evaporated instantly, like a drop of water hitting boiling oil. After making a harsh noise, it disappeared before everyone's eyes.

"From now on, Xuzhou will no longer have a Blood Sect."

Chen Xiao's tone was calm, but his words were like an imperial decree from the Jade Emperor.

Dian Lian swallowed her saliva. The Blood Sect and the Lotus Monastery were both in Xuzhou.

Good and evil were irreconcilable. For hundreds of years, the two sects' overt and covert struggles had never stopped, but they had always suffered mutual damage.

A devastating situation like today's had never occurred before.

With the Blood Sect gone of its master and the four great protectors, the remaining disciples were a leaderless rabble, no different from fish on a chopping board. In less than a month, the Lotus Monastery could completely wipe out the Blood Sect.

Thinking of this, Dian Lian was extremely excited and wanted to return to the Lotus Monastery immediately to tell the Monastery Head and the sisters about this good news!

Of course, before returning to her sect, she still had to thank Chen En Gong properly.

This was a true worldly expert. Although his methods were somewhat cruel, he was upright and definitely an unparalleled hero.

However, before she could express her gratitude, Chen Xiao suddenly said to the air in front of him, "You're really good at holding back. Did you have to wait until I killed all your outer sect disciples before you were willing to show yourself?"

Dian Lian's heart skipped a beat, and a thought that popped into her mind made her shudder.

Lin Qian looked at Chen Xiao inexplicably and asked blankly, "Chen En Gong, who are you talking to? There's no one in front of you?"

"Heh heh heh…"

Lin Qian was speaking when a sinister laughter suddenly came, scaring her so much that goosebumps covered her body.

A transparent phantom appeared in front of everyone, gradually becoming solid, with flesh and blood.

This was a man in a long robe, with a delicate appearance, a pale face, and bright red lips.

Putting aside this terrifying appearance, Lin Qian thought that this was at least a handsome man… If the clients all looked like him, the workload would be reduced by at least half!

"You really did discover me."

The effeminate man smiled sinisterly and licked his red lips. "Heh heh heh, such a strong divine sense, such vigorous Qi and blood…"

Chen Xiao couldn't help but be speechless. Was he being targeted?

"If I refine you, I can at least reach the Shen Hai realm!"

The effeminate man's words were like a thunderclap in Dian Lian's ears, and she trembled violently, as if struck by lightning.

"You, you, are you Ximen Qiufeng?"

Dian Lian suppressed the fear in her heart and asked tremblingly.

The effeminate man glanced at Dian Lian, his brows furrowing slightly: "You filthy Daoist nun, how dare you speak my name?"

This effeminate man seemed to hate women very much, the kind of deep-seated hatred.

"You really are Ximen Qiufeng!"

Dian Lian didn't care about the effeminate man's sarcasm. She was trembling all over, like a sieve.

Her mood took a sharp turn for the worse. The fighting spirit and hope that had just been ignited were now turned into despair and fear.

"Ximen Qiufeng! I remember now, Little Dian Dian said earlier that he was the young master of the Tian Xue Sect!"

Lin Qian exclaimed.

When one door shuts, another opens. This girl wasn't very intelligent, but she had a good memory. She remembered the name that Dian Lian mentioned once.

Dian Lian's mind was extremely chaotic. She was now at a loss and didn't know what to do at all.

This was the young master of the Tian Xue Sect, a god-like figure… Chen En Gong was indeed very strong, but she didn't think that Chen En Gong could be strong enough to contend with the young master of the Tian Xue Sect.

Ah, why? Why did the young master of the Tian Xue Sect have to come to the secular world in person? Wouldn't it be better to wait obediently in the Immortal Hidden Realm for Shi Kai to send women to you?

Why?!

Dian Lian shouted in her heart, helpless and desperate.

At this moment, Chen Xiao suddenly said something inexplicable: "It's almost dawn."

"Huh?"

Dian Lian was slightly stunned, and then said, "It's four o'clock, it's indeed almost dawn. If we were in the mountains, we would already be able to hear the rooster crowing."

"I still have things to do after dawn."

Chen Xiao said matter-of-factly.

Lin Qian remembered that Chen En Gong had indeed said that he would settle things before dawn.

At that time, she had mistakenly thought that Chen En Gong was a fierce ghost…

"So?"

Ximen Qiufeng looked at Chen Xiao with a playful expression, as if he were looking at a delicious delicacy that could talk.

"So, are you ready to die?"

Chen Xiao raised his head, his sharp gaze, like the first ray of dawn piercing through the sky, pointing directly at the Tian Xue Sect's young master!
