"Cao Shaqing, if you didn't want them to die, you shouldn't have let them act. Are you shedding crocodile tears now?" Yang Qi looked at Cao Shaqing with disdain.
"Hmph, after I kill you, I can still avenge them!" Cao Shaqing realized no one was stopping him anymore. Clearly, they wanted him to face the boss of Qifei Group one-on-one.
"Do you know that I am a Tenth Rank Great Grandmaster! How will you defeat ? Among Great Grandmasters, I am invincible!"
Cao Shaqing was not boasting. Indeed, a Tenth Rank Great Grandmaster was fundantally considered invincible among their peers. His confidence was understandable.
"Defeating you won't be easy," Yang Qi said, looking calmly at Cao Shaqing. "But it won't be that hard, either."
This is definitely the strongest opponent I've ever encountered, aside from Ning Que. I know Uncle Jian is down below, but I have to overco this challenge myself. I can't let him intervene. Otherwise, what right would I have to marry Lin Qingxuan? What hope would I have of defeating that Divine Son?
"Grandfather, do you think Master can win?" Lei Yingying asked, looking at the masked Yang Qi with great concern.
"I'm not sure." Lei Qingtian shook his head. "As far as I know, Cao Shaqing hasn't fought in twenty years. No one knows the true extent of his combat power. Regardless, he's very strong. Reaching the level of a Tenth Rank Great Grandmaster is no easy feat. In a martial arts desert like Jingnan Prefecture, a Tenth Rank Great Grandmaster is considered practically invincible. If Yang Qi can defeat him, it would be truly miraculous! At least in Jingnan Prefecture, there probably won't be many who could handle him."
"Really?" Lei Yingying grew even more nervous.
On the other side, Jianyi also turned to Uncle Jian. "Boss, can he win? That old guy is no pushover."
"Relax!" Uncle Jian smiled. "I've seen right through that fellow, Yang Qi. He's ticulous and never acts without confidence. Since he has decided to fight Cao Shaqing, he must be sure of himself. I believe in him because he is the man our Miss has chosen!"
BOOM!
BOOM!
On the plaza, before the Spirit Platform, both n simultaneously erupted with a terrifyingly powerful aura. The collision of their auras actually ford a Dragon Roll, stirring up clouds of dust.
"Boy, I will definitely rip that mask off your face and see who you really are!"
Cao Shaqing took a deep breath and picked up a battle saber from a nearby table. He then took a single step forward. The saber left its sheath as he slashed!
A ghastly, pale Sword Radiance instantly swelled, extending over a foot in length! It split the void and shattered space, descending toward Yang Qi's head with ferocious montum.
"That old bastard is using his signature technique right from the start! I wonder if Yang Qi can withstand it!" Lei Tingjun grew anxious.
Yang Qi's gaze remained placid. His opponent's attack was strong, but he was not to be trifled with, either. The black longsword in his hand ignited with flas. Taking a deep breath, Yang Qi strode forward and slashed out with his sword.
The Black Sword from the Demon General was of truly excellent quality. While not a Magic Artifact, it was nearly indistinguishable from one. Magic Artifacts typically possessed special effects, which this sword lacked, but its toughness was on par with them.
A fiery Sword Radiance shot forth, shattering Cao Shaqing's own Sword Radiance before stabbing toward his throat.
Cao Shaqing furrowed his brow slightly, blocking the strike with his horizontally held battle saber.
CLANG!
In that single exchange, Cao Shaqing was forced back two steps, while Yang Qi remained unmoved.
Everyone's expression turned to one of utter shock; it was simply unbelievable.
"He was pushed back? The boss of Qifei Group actually pushed back Master Cao!"
"That boss from Qifei Group seems a bit strange. His Realm should be lower than Cao Shaqing's, but his body is incredibly powerful. His muscles and bones seem as hard as Vajra, allowing him to erupt with astonishing strength. The power behind his every move is terrifying."
"The Vajra Body Refining Technique? It seems he's already cultivated it to the Ninth Level! To think soone would actually practice that, and even succeed!"
Everyone stared intently at the fight in the center of the plaza. The battle was proving to be incredibly exciting, making it impossible to look away for even a mont.
"Kid, you're interesting. But let's see if you can block this next attack!" Cao Shaqing took a deep breath. Though his words were domineering, he was actually a little scared. Still, this was a battle he could not afford to lose.
"KILL!" he roared, his blade flashing again as he slashed toward Yang Qi.
Brandishing his sword, Yang Qi charged forward, and the two clashed.
CLANG! CLANG!
The crisp sound of colliding steel rang out again and again. Fragnts of Sword Qi and Sword Radiance flew in all directions, turning the area into a terrifying battlefield. The people nearby scrambled to retreat to a safe distance. A battle of this caliber was truly fearso. While it wasn't as exaggerated as a martial arts drama, it certainly had the sa feel.
On the ground, the bluestone floor tiles began to crack, and so even shattered completely. The fight was unbelievably thrilling. In the blink of an eye, they had exchanged over a dozen blows, with neither gaining an advantage.
"Cao Shaqing, you're getting old!" Yang Qi said with a smile. "If you were thirty years younger, perhaps you could have put up a fight. But today, I am destined to win!"
With that, his assault suddenly grew more ferocious. He unleashed his full combat power.
Of course, I haven't used the Green Emperor Body yet. That's for a life-or-death situation, and it's not ti for that. The current Cao Shaqing isn't worth such a risk.
The light of his sword grew brighter! Its speed, faster! Cao Shaqing was being suppressed!
"How can this man be so terrifying? He wasn't even using his full strength until now?" the crowd exclaid in shock.
"I'll risk it all!" Cao Shaqing bit down hard, spraying a mouthful of blood onto his battle saber. The saber suddenly flared with a crimson light, its power seeming to skyrocket.
CLANG!
Another collision sent both n retreating. Cao Shaqing seed to have recovered from his disadvantage, no longer as suppressed as before. He was now able to fight Yang Qi to a standstill. This was undoubtedly due to the secret technique he had just used, as well as his battle saber. That saber seed peculiar. It was a Magic Artifact.
"Hmph!" The mont he retreated, Yang Qi sprang forward again, charging at Cao Shaqing once more.
Cao Shaqing t his charge. Neither was willing to lose. They slamd into each other like two colliding trucks.
BANG!
BANG!
CLANG!
CLANG!
In a flash, another dozen rounds passed. Onlookers fell silent, almost holding their breath. Their eyes were glued to the battle, not blinking for an instant. The fight was too intense, too brilliant! They had never seen anything like it.
CLANG!
The two collided once more, saber and sword grinding together. They both flew back more than ten ters before steadying themselves.
Anxiety was written all over Cao Shaqing's face, while Yang Qi's was alight with excitent.
"Cao Shaqing, you are truly formidable. You have the capital to be arrogant," Yang Qi said with a smile, casually flicking his black longsword. "But if this is the extent of your abilities, what will you use to fight
once that secret technique of yours wears off?"
