Su Qingqing stood in the void as if a deity.
"Bai Yun Temple has always kept out of governnt affairs, but that doesn't an the Imperial Court can trample our na underfoot. In recent days, King ng Tian has been holding back, over and over again, until the Imperial Court's decree arrived. What did it say? Accused of ten heinous cris, we must surrender without a fight or face annihilation by heavenly troops?"
Of course, Su Qingqing was also seething with rage. The Divine Martial King really treated her like a doormat!
"From today onward, I'm no longer the National Master of Wu Country. I will beco a patron of Qingfeng Gate, of course, Senior Sister Xiao Bai!"
She went on to say, "Senior Sister Bai, no matter what, I have had ties with Wu Country, so I won't take action. Senior Sister Bai, it's your turn."
This last line was added by Su Qingqing; she was nearly scared to death by ng Yu just now!
ng Yu is a spellcaster, isn't he? Yes, it's normal that he's skilled in swordsmanship, but that strike just now, who the hell would call it swordsmanship?
That, that, that was clearly a full-force blow from soone in Mid-Foundation Establishnt, or even higher!
She had no idea that ng Yu was also a Sword Cultivator.
Suddenly, she rembered the ti she followed the Imperial Court's people to look for ng Yu. If she had been arrogant back then, full of insults, would ng Yu have suddenly struck her with a sword?
Many tis, she had been only about three ters from ng Yu, even clinking cups and drinking with him!
Wu Country, you bastards, is this how you bully such a tyrant?
That's right, have the grandmaster take a shot. Let those bastards from Wu Country know that Bai Yun Temple is indeed ho to immortals!
Humph, ng Yu's pretense is so impressive.
...
Bai Qianqian has been wearing a hat these past few days since, should ng Yu want to harm her, she would definitely turn tail and run with all her might, without any hesitation. However, it didn't look good with her ears sticking out...
But this ti, she didn't run, though her long ears ca out in fright!
What did I just see?
ng Yu said he would use a sword?
Ha ha ha, you think you're qualified to say that? I've seen various swordsn...
Ah?!!!!!!
Su Qingqing was just enjoying the show when that sword strike happened, but Bai Qianqian, a true Golden Core Master, watched ng Yu's swordsmanship carefully, then was almost scared witless.
She could withstand the Fire Crow Battle Formation, but if ng Yu unexpectedly struck at her with that sword, sorry, she, as a Golden Core Master, would be utterly finished.
That strike from ng Yu was prepared for those old coots from the Immortal Sect. If they dared to descend to the mortal realm to hunt him down, ng Yu would also approach them without hesitation and strike them with his sword!
"Senior Sister, Senior Sister!"
Only after Su Qingqing call out for the third ti did Bai Qianqian co to her senses. Ah, was it her turn to enter the fray?
She had discussed with Su Qingqing before that if ng Yu needed her to scare people by taking action, there would be no problem.
Today, since ng Yu had taken the left, she would take the right.
She moved to the right, to a corner of the city wall. At that mont, the soldiers on the battlents were scurrying away like ants in mad retreat.
"Run fast, for I'm about to destroy this city wall."
Her voice wasn't very loud or authoritative; it was sowhat sweet and sticky. Thankfully, her True Qi carried her voice far, so many people at a great distance felt as if soone spoke right next to their ears.
At this mont, countless people clenched their fists. Just with this skill alone, this seemingly delicate young lady... she was a very, very fearso master.
This included officials from the Imperial Court.
The Divine Martial King, after watching ng Yu's mory Stone, was left utterly stunned. Known for his stoicism, even as the Five Peaks crumbled before him, he watched the mory Stone thrice, repeatedly checking the live scene, including whether the mory Stone could be fake.
Not until an hour later did he relax a bit, saying that ng Yu's move must have had more to it. He had seen artifacts that could store items, and when ng Yu set the fire, he likely used a great deal of Fire Oil to intimidate others, and his actual strength wasn't that high. Besides, if he had such power, why didn't he rebel earlier? Why did he endure all this ti, even when so many of his people had escaped, yet still refrained from taking action?
This could only an that ng Yu was all show and no substance, like certain historical demons claid to have weather-controlling powers, which were actually breakable with sothing as simple as black dog's blood. Everybody shouldn't be afraid, it might even be re illusion!
Well, either way, many officials and commanders of the Imperial Court sowhat believed this, but they also saw how the Imperial Court was frantically trying to contact ng Yu. They even beheaded the entire family of the treasury keeper without hesitation, and after what happened to Fang Jue Ying's family, they all felt uneasy.
In this era, anyone who had reached a certain position had a large group of people behind them. While they enjoyed wealth and luxury, they also had to think of their clan, and of course, themselves!
Illusions, lies, demon arts, collusion with ng Yu among those present... and then, everyone saw ng Yu's plain and unremarkable sword strike.
He didn't even bother to learn that Five Peaks Swordsman's ridiculous trick of slicing through city walls. The shaless Imperial Court of Great Wu even kept restoring the site where the walls were cut in the past, letting present generations witness the 'magnificent achievents' of their ancestors.
They boasted desperately, but the Five Peaks Swordsman went straight for the chop, while ng Yu went for a vertical slice!
The most basic common sense, the thicker the defense, the more exponentially its defensive capability grows!
After that one strike, ng Yu stunned everyone; many rapidly pondered how to grovel, how to offer their daughters or beauties, how to turn against Great Wu, how to...
Then, the little girl from Bai Yun Temple, arrived at another corner of the city wall.
Her voice was weak and soft, just like the girl next door, but what was she preparing to do, destroy another section of the city wall?
...
Bai Qianqian sneakily glanced at ng Yu, confirming he was a good seven to eight hundred ters away, and Su Qingqing was right by his side, just in case he had any bad ideas... No, no, she shouldn't doubt ng Yu like this.
ng Yu was truly nice; was this what the ancients recorded as the "modest gentleman, gentle like jade"?
Now, it was ti to give ng Yu face.
Sister Fox once said that if a man takes you out, you must dress prettily, and if he fights, you absolutely must hand him the knife. And if the other party is a woman showing off with a big chest, drug her... Okay, it's been a long ti since she saw Sister Fox; who knows, maybe she got beaten to death. After all, her words don't sound very reliable. Sister Turtle said the fox's words were pure nonsense, only idiots believe them, but now, it's her mont to give ng Yu face.
However, there were still a few dozen soldiers shivering on the city wall; maybe it was military orders or perhaps they didn't even know what happened on the other side of the wall since they have been standing here all along. They saw their comrades desperately running away, but they stayed put, each as pale as death.
They might not know anything.
Which spell to use?
As a Golden Core Master, she naturally understood Five Elents magic and had many at her disposal, such as the powerful Falling Thunder Spell?
But she really didn't like killing people, not even inclined towards destruction.
She had been bullied by many people and was saddened; so when she bullied others, she felt bad too.
Take the Falling Thunder Spell for example; back when she was still a little bunny, she had painstakingly built a glass greenhouse, and so villain suddenly flew by, boasting about achieving Golden Core and flying fast breaking the sound barrier. Then as if from thin air, he unleashed dozens of thunderclaps, the sonic booms turning her greenhouse into her tears!
Just like ng Yu, that bad guy!
She cried for three whole days!
She did not wish to hurt more people.
She turned back to look at ng Yu, then the Golden Core Expert, in breach of her own words, fattened, moved right, and proceeded to an unpopulated open space outside the city wall.
There was a small puddle there, the land neither good nor bad, where she stood and began to move her fingers.
Her actions were very different from ng Yu's earth-shattering ones.
Here, more than six hundred ters away from the city wall, and it was evident she was casting a spell on the land.
But no one laughed at her; on the contrary, everyone watched her, waited for her, eager to find out what this kind-hearted young girl would do... Indeed, everyone saw her hesitation. Now was not the ti to mock soone for their soft heart; instead, her actions allowed everyone to breathe a sigh of relief.
After ng Yu's recent strike, everyone pictured his softhearted nature!
Lately, countless people debated whether ng Yu was genuinely kind-hearted or just a clever scher allowing the Imperial Court's antics. Most old foxes favored the latter explanation; where in the world is there such a thing as a saint? It's all an act; ng Yu must have been after Great Wu's Divine Artifact, just with a bit more cunning, exploiting others' greed, letting them jump around so that future history books would be easier to write.
So even suggested many people in ng Yu's territory were killed by him; had he shown his power earlier, those people would not have died, and so even lost their entire families. Why didn't he show his strength outwardly if he wouldn't do it inwardly?
Old foxes held ng Yu in contempt for his nonsense behavior, even calling the younger generations, warning them to take a look at ng Yu's actions, advising them to be careful around this thick-faced, black-hearted fellow.
Of course, everyone also felt that ng Yu's expertise in magic was flawed, which is why he had to put on such an act.
But just now, ng Yu's sword strike had utterly terrified these old foxes!
This sword possessed unparalleled power, and indeed, he was genuinely skilled in both law and martial arts cultivation!
One of the most basic concepts in martial arts is that the force one can punch out is the sa force one's body can endure, and right now, describing ng Yu as having a Vajra Body was an understatent.
In that mont, everyone suddenly felt that even if ng Yu were a murderous demon king or a fool caught with his pants down, how good it was! Absolute power might not lead to absolute corruption, but it could definitely kill everyone!
After the young girl stepped forward, everyone waited for another shock, like anticipating the next dish after just having candied hocks at a banquet—surely it would be followed by a plate of braised rabbit at?
Just how strong was the young girl's combat prowess? Heaven help, let her be formidable to balance ng Yu, or else...
Hey, what is the young girl doing?
