This ti, it wasn't just Zhuan Peng or the black-robed Elder Ming who were stunned by Liu i's response but the remaining 4 peak rank 9 Dao Kings as well, staring at the aloof young woman in front of them with looks of incredulity mixed with unconcealed astonishnt!
Not only had Liu i chosen to ignore Elder Ming's request with a look of contempt clear in her eyes, but she had even turned her gaze towards the bald, unassuming man shortly afterwards, and even identified him as the person who had just attacked the formation.
Regardless of how composed they may have appeared earlier, the 6 peak-stage Dao Kings couldn't help but be caught off-guard at this point, as they finally began to reassess this young woman in front of them. No matter how they looked at it... whether it was her attitude or the way she carried herself despite the danger she was currently facing, both were clearly out of the ordinary!
As soon as those words left Liu i's mouth however, the black-robed Elder Ming and the unassuming middle-aged man silently exchanged glances with each other, before the looming tension in the air abruptly turned even more oppressive and deadly, as the 2 peak-stage Dao Kings finally turned serious for the first ti in a while.
Indeed, that simple-looking, unassuming middle-aged man whom Liu i had just targeted, was precisely the sa person who had just launched an attack on the 'Five-elents protective formation' a while ago, and was soone whom even the arrogant black-robed Elder Ming had to respectfully address as Elder Ling!
With a calm look on his face the 'unassuming Elder Ling' suddenly took a step forward, and yet with just that single step, the middle-aged man seed to have traversed more than a dozen ters in a flash, causing him to arrive right in front of Liu i before he replied with a smile
''Little lass, it seems you are quite perceptive! Not bad. Even though I've been concealing my aura this whole ti, you could actually tell that I was the one who attacked your formation right away! Although your cultivation base is still unstable, at the very least, the power of your soul is not bad.''
Elder Ling's tone was nonchalant as if he was just making so casual remarks, but the hidden aning behind his words was clear to everyone present. In his eyes, although Liu i's soul sense was extraordinary, that was all there was to it. It was her only extraordinary quality!
As for her cultivation base? Although this white-robed young woman was a peak rank 9 Dao King as well, the unassuming middle-aged man could tell that Liu i had just broken through to this level barely a year ago and had yet to truly consolidate her advancent! Therefore, how could she possibly compare to an experienced peak-stage Dao King like him who was only a few steps away from the Dao Emperor realm?
What Elder Ling didn't seem to know however, was that Liu i had already assessed his entire group's strength the mont she stepped out of the 'Five-elents protective formation' and had already decided on her next course of action.
Before her last breakthrough, she may have had so trouble taking on a group of six peak rank 9 Dao Kings all by herself, but now... Liu i was fully confident in dealing with people who were rely at Elder Ling's level!
Without even throwing the bald middle-aged man in front of her a second glance, Liu i turned her gaze toward the distant Zhuan Peng, and after a mont of silence, she cupped her hands and bowed slightly towards the white-robed elder as she said calmly
''Elder Zhuan, considering our past relationship and in consideration of my master, I hope you will not involve yourself in this matter any further! I don't care about the rest of them, but the person who attacked our formation just now, as well as the black-robed man who instigated everything, will both have to pay!''
The white-robed Zhuan Peng was taken aback by Liu i's words, but the 'unassuming' Elder Ling's eyes flashed with a cold light when he heard that, before he roared out in an enraged voice
''How impudent!''
Elder Ling's voice seed to contain so powerful, mystical quality, causing his surroundings to tremble as a shockwave traveled rapidly from his location straight towards Liu i!
Almost at the sa ti that his voice echoed out, the middle-aged man's right hand punched through the air in an extrely swift motion, aiming straight for Liu i's chest!
It was obvious that this seemingly 'unassuming' man was not holding back anymore after hearing Liu i's response, and was finally revealing his true strength!
The aura of a peak-sixth stage body refiner surrounded Elder Ling's fist, as the man aid to take out the young woman in front of him in a single strike!
In a conflict between peak-stage Dao Kings, Elder Ling was a person who knew fully well when to be soft and negotiate and when he had to fight. If they could resolve things peacefully with each other, the middle-aged man wouldn't mind letting Zhuan Peng negotiate in their stead, but since Liu i had already made her stance clear, Elder Ling knew that it was best to deal with his enemies as quickly as possible!
As for whether Liu i would survive his attack or not, the middle-aged man wasn't the slightest bit concerned! Since he had already decided to reveal his full strength, he was going to make sure that the young woman in front of him was either going to end up dead, or at the very least crippled!
After all, a peak-stage Dao King wasn't soone who could casually be captured, unless they were mortally wounded or on the verge of death!
Unfortunately for Elder Ling, re monts before his fist could connect with Liu i's chest, 2 massive dark-red greatswords imdiately blocked his path on the spot, causing his attack to co to a sharp halt.
At the sa ti, from the ground beneath Liu i's feet, a pool of darkness seed to have manifested out of thin air, causing an extrely dense aura of death to pulse out from within! And from the depths of that darkness itself, a pair of shadowy figures gradually erged, their burning purple embers that served for eyes staring straight towards Elder Ling's soul, like a pair of grim reapers who had finally co to collect!
