Chapter 732: A Wave of Maneuvers, the Entire Army Annihilated

"I’m too late!" Ye Xiu stood at the entrance to the tunnel leading to the Abandoned City. Staring at the bodies of the two test subjects, his expression was incredibly dark.

At that moment, a person jumped down from the mountain above the tunnel—it was a spy sent by Mo Luo.

"Young Master, Ye Tianming and Long Tianba killed them," the spy said. "According to those people, they just wanted to teach you a lesson and vent their anger. It was Ye Tianming and Long Tianba who framed you for slaughtering the Ye and Long Families and raping their women, painting you as an irredeemably evil person. That’s why they stormed the Abandoned City."

Ye Xiu was furious. "Ye Tianming and Long Tianba, those damn bastards! Do they really think I’m reluctant to kill them?"

The spy continued, "A total of 2,500 test subjects and hundreds of weak Mutated Beasts were mercilessly slaughtered. They are probably nearing Qingqing Homeland by now. But don’t worry, Young Master, all 2,500 test subjects were injected with the Life Totem. Death will only awaken them, but those hundreds of Mutated Beasts won’t survive."

Hearing this, the Killing Intent in Ye Xiu’s chest dissipated slightly. He secretly praised Dizang for his efficiency; otherwise, all 2,500 test subjects would have truly died.

It’s time to deal with the Ye and Long Families.

Ye Xiu sent a message to Qin Qing, then passed through the tunnel into the Abandoned City, rushing at full speed toward the Qingqing Homeland Villa District.

***

When Ye Tianming and Long Tianba arrived at the entrance of the Qingqing Homeland Villa District with their ’Settle Ye Xiu Alliance,’ Qin Qing, Leng Yue, Dizang, Chloe, An Dongye, Ye Liuyun, Tang Bo, and Dong Fangbai were already waiting for them. The Blood Cloth Guards, the thirty old-timers, and the elite Mutated Beasts were on standby inside the complex.

Seeing Qin Qing, Ye Tianming couldn’t hide his excitement. A smug grin bloomed across his face as he gloated, "Haha, Qin Qing, you didn’t expect Long Tianba and me to not only come back but also to bring so many experts, did you?"

Long Tianba, however, spoke directly to a white-haired old man. "That woman in the middle is Ye Xiu’s wife, Qin Qing. The people next to her are all his friends and subordinates. They are all utterly evil and deserve to die!"

"Kill!" the white-haired old man ordered without wasting another word.

Instantly, apart from the dozen or so Seventh Realm experts and the few hundred people injured by gunfire, the rest of the ’Settle Ye Xiu Alliance’ charged murderously toward Qin Qing and her group.

"Injure them, but do not kill," Qin Qing said coldly.

No sooner had she spoken than Tang Bo made the first move, activating his Earth System Totem.

Suddenly, a massive pit appeared before Qin Qing’s group—dozens of meters wide, ten meters long, and seemingly bottomless. Like dumplings tossed into a pot, the members of the ’Settle Ye Xiu Alliance’ at the front of the charge tumbled into the pit.

Those behind reacted quickly, leaping into the air in an attempt to jump over the pit and attack.

"Amitabha. Now all of you get the hell into the pit for this old monk." Dizang made his move. A huge golden Buddha phantom with countless arms materialized behind him. The arms, whether as palms, fists, or fingers, all struck out at once.

In an instant, every member of the ’Settle Ye Xiu Alliance’ who had leaped into the air was hit. They all fell from the sky, vomiting blood as they crashed into the pit below.

"What the fuck..." Ye Tianming and Long Tianba were nearly scared to death. So many Third, Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Realm experts had been taken care of by Dizang in a single move. He was unbelievably strong.

"The Great Compassion Grant?" the white-haired old man on the other side of the pit exclaimed. The other dozen or so Seventh Realm experts who had yet to act also wore expressions of horror.

"The orthodox Buddhist Sect was exterminated by the Temple over two thousand years ago. From whom did you learn the Great Compassion Grant?" the white-haired old man asked in shock.

Dizang did not answer, only pressing his hands together with a cold smile. "Amitabha. You should be more concerned with the fate of those who fell into the pit, not satisfying your curiosity."

"Hmph, a mere pit can’t harm them. They’ll climb out on their own," the white-haired old man said with absolute confidence.

As soon as he finished speaking, chilling screams erupted from the pit. Given its depth, the sheer number of people inside, and the darkness of night, the screams were particularly horrifying.

"This... You... you set an ambush in the pit?" The faces of the white-haired old man, the dozen Seventh Realm experts, and the hundreds of injured people turned deathly pale.

"It’s just a pig running around down there," Qin Qing said with a shrug.

"Are you mocking me?" Thinking Qin Qing was toying with him, the white-haired old man burst into a rage. Drawing his sword, he leaped forward. "Die!"

He was a Seventh Realm War God—a Pseudo Seventh Realm, to be precise—but his strength and speed were not to be underestimated. In a flash, he was in front of Qin Qing, his longsword shrouded in a fierce aura as it chopped toward her neck.

An enchanting smile remained on Qin Qing’s face. She didn’t dodge, flinch, or block, simply standing her ground as if it had nothing to do with her.

However, just as the old man’s sword was millimeters from striking her neck, a silver light suddenly burst from her body, unleashing an overwhelming wave of silver Sword Qi from within.

"What—"

The white-haired old man scrambled to retract his attack and defend with his sword, but the Sword Qi was too dense and powerful. It blasted him back step by step until he reached the edge of the pit, where he slipped and fell in.

He was lucky to fall into the pit; otherwise, the Sword Qi might have slain him. Even so, he sustained severe internal injuries.

After the old man fell, the Sword Qi continued to surge forward like an overwhelming tidal wave toward the other side of the pit where Ye Tianming, Long Tianba, the hundreds of injured, and the dozen Seventh Realm experts stood.

"Join forces!" Facing such a terrifying wave of Sword Qi, the dozen Seventh Realm experts combined their attacks and barely managed to dissipate it.

In truth, ever since Ye Xiu had infused the Sword Dao from the ’Sword’ tablet into Qin Qing, she had become a living porcupine; anyone who attacked her was in for a world of pain. The Sword Dao from the ’Sword’ tablet grew stronger against a stronger opponent. In other words, if a child struck her, the child would be severely injured. If a Seventh Realm expert struck her, that expert would also be severely injured. The explosive power of the Sword Dao scaled with the strength of the person attacking her.

"Suddenly, I really want to go get beaten up by the three Judicator Families," Qin Qing said, as if she hadn’t had enough.

Leng Yue and the others were speechless.

"My turn!" Ye Liuyun stepped forward, activating Qiao Beiming’s Fourth Stage Earth System Totem and unleashing the might of a Fifth Realm War God.

On the other side of the pit, the dozen Seventh Realm experts, the hundreds of injured, and Ye Tianming and Long Tianba were still reeling from the shock. Suddenly, large hands formed of soil erupted from the ground beneath them, seizing all of them.

"Wh-what is this strange power?" Ye Tianming and Long Tianba were so frightened they felt their souls might flee their bodies.

"Earth System Totem?" The dozen Seventh Realm War Gods burst forth with all their might, shattering the earthen hands. They were Pseudo Seventh Realms; the power of an Earth System Totem wielded by a mere Fifth Realm like Ye Liuyun was not enough to trap them.

"Don’t move, or I’ll crush them!" Ye Liuyun said coldly.

The dozen Seventh Realm War Gods, who had been poised to rescue the others, instantly froze, afraid to make a move.

At this moment, they were utterly terrified. They had come here with more than 3,000 people, yet Ye Xiu hadn’t even shown himself. Just four people—Qin Qing, Dizang, Tang Bo, and Ye Liuyun—had reduced their forces to a mere dozen survivors.

"Ahem. It is this god’s turn to act!" Dong Fangbai coughed to draw everyone’s attention. He then took out the small stone tablet engraved with the word ’Sword’ that Ye Xiu had given him, ready to put on a grand show. Now that only Seventh Realm experts were left, if he could wipe them all out, he would become the Pressure King!

Just as Dong Fangbai was about to make his move, and just as the dozen Seventh Realm experts were nervously trying to guess what he would do, a thunderous voice suddenly shouted, "Enough!"

Everyone turned to see that Ye Xiu had appeared beside Dong Fangbai at some unknown point.
