The Heavenly Saber Novel - Chapter 172
Chapter 172 The Might of a Palm
“I’ve been in seclusion for a few days. It’s time to go out and take a look at the situation.” Li Qing moved his stiff muscles and bones for a moment before he got up and walked out of the room.
He was in a very good mood. He didn’t know that the Heaven and Earth phenomenon he created when he broke through had caused a huge commotion and brought a lot of trouble to the Su Clan. He thought that nothing big had happened outside.
Just as he walked out, he met a guard standing at the entrance of the courtyard. He couldn’t help but be stunned and ask, “What are you doing in front of my courtyard?”
When the guards saw Li Qing, they were immediately overjoyed and said, “Protector Li, you’ve finally come out!”
“What’s wrong? You seem to be very happy to see me.” Li Qing felt that something was strange, as if something had happened.
“I’m sure you’re happy! You don’t know how big a commotion there has been in the past few days. Right now, the messengers of the major powers are all in the main hall, forcing the City Lord!”
“What’s going on?” Li Qing was very surprised and asked, “Is there a big commotion outside?”
“Of course!” The guards answered in unison, unable to help but feel somewhat confused. This guy made such a big commotion, but he didn’t know anything.
Next, they narrated what had happened in the past few days in a frightening manner.
…
At this moment, the atmosphere in the Su Clan’s main hall was extremely tense. City Lord Su sat at the top with a solemn expression. He looked at the group of people standing in the middle of the hall with a cold gaze.
The people in the middle were the messengers of the various major powers, as well as the experts they had invited over.
These experts were all Xiantian-level cultivators! What a terrifying lineup!
Evidently, after a few days of hard work, the messengers of the major powers felt powerless to force City Lord Su. They sent people to send a message back, asking the powers behind them to send Xiantian experts over.
Now, there were actually five Xiantian experts in the Su Clan’s main hall. No wonder City Lord Su’s expression was so solemn.
“City Lord Su, there’s no need for you to deny it. If you say that such a huge phenomenon of heaven and earth isn’t the birth of a treasure, I won’t believe anything you say.” The person who spoke was none other than Old Ghost Han.
The people of Yu Tian City were unwilling to die. They had always wanted to annex Jiang Yuan City. Last time, they suffered a hidden loss. Of course, they would not let it go. Now, they were just joining forces with the people of the various major powers to find the place.
“That’s right, treasures are for the virtuous. Hand them over quickly! You can’t be too greedy, or else it will bring disaster to your Su Clan!” These people echoed.
City Lord Su said coldly, “I have already said many times that there are no treasures. If you don’t believe me, there is nothing I can do.”
“Haha, do you think we will believe such nonsense?” Someone laughed loudly.
“If you refuse to hand over the treasure, I will slaughter your Su Clan today!” Someone said with killing intent. He was actually so unscrupulous.
As the saying goes, the walls were pushed down by the crowd, and these people sneered repeatedly. They looked at City Lord Su with ill intentions in their eyes.
With the five great Xiantian experts here, they might really be able to take advantage of this opportunity to destroy the Su Clan and seize Jiangyuan City.
No matter how strong City Lord Su’s strength was, it was impossible for him to be a match for the five of them. You can’t miss such a good opportunity.
“You guys! How outrageous! You’re going too far! You actually want to harm our Su Clan? Do you really think that I, Su, am a vegetarian?” City Lord Su’s expression was extremely ugly.
It wasn’t that he hadn’t thought of compromising, but he knew that it was useless.
He had already said that there were no treasures, and had repeatedly stressed that, but these people simply did not believe him. They only believed that there were treasures that had appeared, so it was useless to say anything.
Moreover, even if he really took out some precious treasure and gave it to them, they would not stop there. They would definitely advance inch by inch and snatch more things.
City Lord Su could be considered an old martial artist. He wouldn’t be so stupid. He believed what these people said.
There was no reason to talk to these people, and they weren’t trying to reason with them. Unless they were suppressed by force, they would not be able to do anything good today.
However, there was only one person in front of him, and there were five great Xiantian experts. They were unable to survive on their own, so they were no match for him at all.
‘”So you don’t want to hand it over? What a tough attitude. You have backbone. I admire you very much! Haha–” Old Ghost Han laughed heartily and proudly.
“You’re too ignorant. Since that’s the case, don’t blame us for being impolite!”
“Refuse to be convinced until one is faced with grim reality!”
“Today, I will simply destroy your Su Clan!”
The five Xiantian experts emitted a terrifying aura, filled with killing intent as they approached.
City Lord Su couldn’t help but complain in his heart. This situation was truly troublesome. If this trend continued, the Su Clan would face a calamity today.
The atmosphere became extremely solemn. Seeing that the two sides were about to attack, a great battle was about to break out!
Suddenly, a voice came from outside the door, “Oh? Really? Today, I want to see how you destroyed the Su Clan!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he saw a figure flash past and a purple figure appeared in the hall.
This person was Li Qing.
“Li Qing? You’re finally out!” City Lord Su was overjoyed. With Li Qing’s help, even if the two of them were unable to defeat the five Xiantian experts, they would still be able to barely survive.
With the help of the Su Clan’s guards, they might be able to repel the invading enemy. After all, this was Su Mansion, their home ground.
“Kid, who are you?” Someone asked.
Li Qing did not reply. A cold light flashed in his eyes as he slapped down on the five Xiantian experts. A huge purple hand appeared above his head, like a majestic mountain that enveloped all five of them.
“Brat, you’re arrogant! You’re courting death!” These five great Xiantian experts were furious. This ignorant young man in front of them actually dared to attack five people at the same time. It was truly too lawless.
“If you dare to despise the dignity of a Xiantian expert, I will let you die today without a burial ground! Shatter it!”
They shouted loudly and simultaneously attacked the giant hand above their heads. Instantly, countless terrifying attacks poured out, forming a torrent of energy that was about to shatter it.
“Li Qing, it’s dangerous!” City Lord Su’s expression changed drastically. He didn’t expect that he would be so impulsive. He directly attacked without a word.
“Boom!”
The attacks of the five Xiantian experts landed on the giant purple hand, but the result was unexpected. Just a few ripples appeared, just like mud bulls entering the sea, unable to create any waves, and unable to shake the giant purple palm in the slightest.
“It can’t be?”
When they saw this result, they couldn’t help but be stunned, wondering if their eyes were dizzy.
The giant purple hand was unstoppable, easily shattering the attacks of the various experts. Then, it continued to dive forward, enveloping the five of them, as if Mount Tai was overwhelming.
“Not good, this person is powerful!”
Everyone’s colors changed. They didn’t dare to underestimate Li Qing anymore and fought with all their might.
However, this was useless at all. The purple giant hand was simply too powerful, as if it had condensed into a solid substance. It was made of the toughest steel and was indestructible.
It gently shook and scattered countless attacks. It was filled with boundless power and firmly pressed down.
“Ah…”
Someone cried out in pain. This was a Xiantian First Layer expert. He was the weakest and was the first to lose his strength. He was covered by that large hand. Before he could touch it, his entire body cracked.
There was an invisible pressure that was inconceivable and difficult to resist, causing him to shatter like a porcelain, his bones to break violently, and blood to leak out from his entire body.
“Pu!”
He spat out a large mouthful of blood, and then he was crushed to the ground, clinging to the ground tightly. His entire body seemed to be crushed, unable to move at all.
Almost at the same time, another person also let out a miserable scream. He could not hold on and was forced to kneel down, his hands on the ground.
The ground beneath his feet collapsed, forming a gigantic palm print. The cracks extended in all directions.
Xiantian experts were already considered to be the overlords of the world, and they could shatter a small mountain with a single palm strike. However, such a powerful martial artist was filled with powerlessness when facing Li Qing, as if he was fighting against the entire sky.
The expressions of the other three people who were still standing changed drastically. They knew that the situation was not good. They roared towards the sky and their bodies burned. They used all their strength to resist this big hand that covered the sky.
However, when their attacks collided with that big hand, it was difficult to injure it at all!
Their hands covered the sky and covered everything under the sky. They firmly pressed down, full of heavy pressure. They could not escape even if they wanted to.
Under this terrifying pressure, the five Xiantian experts had no power to resist and were all forced to kneel down.
Their faces were humiliated. They had never suffered such torture. They wanted to resist, but they could not move at all. They could only kneel.
When the spectators saw this scene, they were all stunned. Every inch of their flesh and blood trembled from fear, and even their souls trembled.
