The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 168
Chapter 168 Rise To Fame
Li Qing’s eyes also flashed with surprise.
Although he knew that his body was very powerful, it was difficult to estimate how powerful it was.
Now, it seemed that there was no problem carrying a mid-grade True Artifact. Just a bloody scar appeared and it healed in the blink of an eye.
He was very satisfied with his physical fitness, and the corners of his mouth inadvertently revealed a smile. However, now was the time for battle. Just as this thought flashed through his mind, he forgot about it.
Return to your senses and continue fighting!
After the sword collided with his fist, he did not pause. He clenched his other hand tightly and punched out another fist filled with strength, attacking Old Ghost Han’s side!
The fist was like an arrow that opened a bow. It was filled with the beauty of power. The air was compressed, and an arc of air pressure could be seen with the naked eye. It even emitted a trembling sound. It looked extremely terrifying.
It was just an ordinary punch!
“What a powerful force!” Old Ghost Han’s heart tightened when he saw this. The opponent’s strength exceeded his imagination. He didn’t know how many kilograms he had. How could he dare to forcefully carry it? He was so frightened that he immediately retreated and avoided this punch. At the same time, the black sword in his hand drew a curve and an arc of sword energy slashed out.
“Boom!”
Li Qing’s punch shattered this sword qi, and he was unforgiving. He charged towards Old Ghost Han again, punching out continuously and chasing after him.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
His fist was like a rainbow, unstoppable! Li Qing’s fleshly body was incredibly powerful, extremely valiant, and his terrifying attacks were like a torrential flood, endless.
In fact, he was not proficient in boxing. Each punch was the most primitive attack, and there was no other change. He relied on his brute force to produce astonishing destructive power.
Primitive! Simple! Rude! It was filled with an extreme sense of strength.
It was by relying on such a crude attack that Old Ghost Han was suppressed, gaining the upper hand.
This was because Li Qing’s strength was too strong. Even if Old Ghost Han’s cultivation realm was high and he had a lot of experience, he would still be crushed by Li Qing.
Even if he suffered any injuries, he could still instantly heal his wounds with his astonishing recovery power.
As a result, this battle was unexpectedly one-sided. Old Ghost Han, a Xiantian expert, was suppressed and beaten by a young man without the slightest bit of resistance.
Everyone watched the battle in the field and couldn’t help but be dumbfounded. None of them expected this outcome.
“This … this is simply a human-shaped Tyrannosaurus rex!”
“Too strong! Even second level Xiantian experts are no match for him.”
At this moment, the disdain and contempt in everyone’s eyes disappeared, and they became extremely respectful and shocked.
The world respected the strong, and it was an eternal law.
After all, Old Ghost Han was a Xiantian expert. His cultivation level was extremely high, and his sword technique was extremely exquisite. His sword qi was criss-crossing, and he brandished it so that black light flickered. His momentum was also extremely shocking.
Although he was suppressed by Li Qing, his defense was watertight, barely able to maintain his invincibility. He did not lose the face of a Xiantian expert.
“Drink!”
After fighting for a while, Li Qing suddenly shouted loudly. It was like a thunderclap. His body bent as if it had transformed into a giant bow, filled with tension. Then, he punched forward abruptly!
“Not good!”
Old Ghost Han’s expression changed when he saw the terrifying fist that seemed to be able to shatter everything.
He could feel that this punch contained a terrifying explosive force. It was like a volcano. Energy was about to erupt, and the surrounding air became twisted, causing strands of energy to appear.
This punch was still an ordinary attack, but it was much more powerful than before. It was clearly Li Qing’s attack with all his strength.
Old Ghost Han hurriedly flew back and didn’t dare to take it head-on. At the same time, the black sword in his hand stabbed out like a dragonfly, clicking on his fist, wanting to suppress his strength with softness.
“Ding!”
A crisp voice rang out. The black divine sword was bent, making an ear-piercing and sour sound. It seemed as if it was about to break, and then it suddenly flicked outwards.
It was as if he had been struck by a spring bullet. Old Ghost Han’s entire body was bounced back ten steps in a row. Every step he took caused the ground to tremble, cracks appearing on the ground, and then it shattered.
“Stop!” Old Ghost Han hurriedly shouted.
His face was flushed red, and he felt the blood energy in his chest surge. He almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Obviously, he had already suffered some internal injuries. If he continued to fight, he would lose without a doubt.
In order to avoid failure, he stopped the battle in time.
‘”I didn’t expect you to be so strong at such a young age. Your strength is truly formidable. You are barely comparable to me. However, if we continue fighting like this, I’m afraid both of us will be injured. How about this, we are evenly matched in today’s battle. Let’s treat it as a draw.”
In fact, he was completely suppressed by Li Qing, not evenly matched. However, for the sake of Xiantian experts’ face, it was impossible for him to say anything self-destructive.
Being able to take the initiative to seek peace was already considered admitting defeat.
“Is that so? But I’m not afraid of losing and wounding each other. I like to fight evenly. Come on, let’s continue fighting and decide the outcome.” Li Qing looked at Old Ghost Han with a faint smile.
Old Ghost Han’s face darkened. Did this fellow really not understand or did he pretend not to understand?
“If this goes on, I’m afraid it will take a long time. I’m rushing over from Yu Tian City. I don’t have that much time. I still have important matters to attend to, so I won’t accompany you anymore.”
Li Qing couldn’t help but laugh loudly, “But who said that he wanted to take my life just now?”
“You… I’m just angry, don’t take it seriously!” Old Ghost Han suppressed the anger in his heart and pretended to have a gentle expression on his face.
City Lord Su was afraid that something unexpected would happen, so he hurriedly said, “Alright, alright, since Old Ghost Han is unwilling to continue fighting, then let’s stop and treat it as a draw.”
Since City Lord Su has already spoken, Li Qing will no longer pester him. He casually said, “Whatever, Old Ghost Han, if you don’t provoke me, I won’t bother with you.”
Although he had the upper hand, it would probably be extremely difficult to kill an old Xiantian expert like Old Ghost Han.
At the very least, relying solely on physical strength, or just a pair of fists, was extremely difficult to accomplish.
Although his strength was powerful and far surpassed his opponent’s, his fist technique was too rough. He didn’t know how to use his strength, so he could only use brute force.
If he took out his Heavenly Saber, he might be able to kill Old Ghost Han in a few strikes.
However, the Heavenly Saber was something that could never be taken out. Otherwise, it would be troublesome for someone to recognize it. In the past, he didn’t know the origin of the Heavenly Saber, so he didn’t really care about it when he took it out. Now that he knew this great secret, he couldn’t help but feel uneasy. He was afraid that he would be discovered, so he naturally had to be much more cautious.
When Old Ghost Han heard Li Qing’s rude words, he was so angry that he almost spat out a mouthful of blood. These words were truly too arrogant!
“You! How dare you! You’re too arrogant! I’m furious! The green mountains will not change, and the green waters will flow. Let’s wait and see!”
Old Ghost Han put down his harsh words and left with a group of people from Yu Tian City.
…
After repelling the people from Yu Tian City, City Lord Su was in a good mood. He smiled and said, “The ceremony is still in progress. Everyone, go in. We will continue to drink happily. We will not return until we are drunk!”
“Alright!” Everyone cheered before returning to the main hall.
Next, people continuously came to Li Qing’s side and chatted with him, wanting to make friends with him. Li Qing also responded politely and patiently.
In the middle of the crowd, Li Qing was surrounded by stars. He was like a rising star. He was dazzling and his future was limitless.
After the banquet, many guests left one after another.
Li Qing’s battle tracks quickly spread throughout Jiangyuan City. Everyone knew that this young man actually had the strength to fight against Xiantian experts head-on.
Old Ghost Han, who was as strong as a Xiantian Second Stage cultivator, could only draw with Li Qing.
No, to be exact, it was Li Qing who suppressed Old Ghost Han and gained the upper hand. He was obviously stronger than Old Ghost Han.
This was simply frightening. Many people didn’t believe it because it was too unbelievable.
However, all the guests present witnessed this with their own eyes, so they couldn’t be fake, so they couldn’t help but believe it.
After this battle, Li Qing had become completely famous. Compared to many Xiantian experts, his fame spread far and wide.
The position of Su Clan’s guest minister was truly worthy of its name. No one dared to laugh at this matter anymore. Instead, they all praised City Lord Su for his Eye Sense Pearl. This time, they really picked up a treasure.
