Supreme Sword Exalt

Chapter 255 - So a Gaze Really Can Kill

In the wilderness, Murong Yan and Shen Xuan desperately dashed forward while carrying Ah Sha. They ran without looking back. Hiding the storage ring and fooling those people was very much in line with Gu Han’s usual style of conduct. However, it also meant that Gu Han had sealed all his exits.

Suddenly, they stopped in their tracks. Not far ahead, a white-clad, graceful beauty stood. A gentle breeze swept by, ruffling her hair and making her dress flutter. Coupled with the fleeting allure in her eyes, it lent her an added charm. It was the demoness!

Their hearts sank, and they instantly went on alert. “It’s you!”

“Hm? What a coincidence, we met again!” The demoness showed a bewitching smile. She gracefully walked toward the two, curiously staring at Ah Sha in Murong Yan’s arms. “What’s wrong with her? Injured? Come, let me have a look.”

At the same time, Ah Sha abruptly regained consciousness and cried out in shock, “Young Master!”

Two deep glows appeared in her eyes. Caught off guard, Murong Yan was directly blasted flying.

She ignored the threat of the demoness for the moment. “Ah Sha, what’s wrong?”

Tears traced down the corners of Ah Sha’s eyes. “Young Master...”

As the deep glow intensified, she no longer had her usual cute appearance. Instead, her temperament became profoundly strange, vaguely giving people a feeling of being high and mighty, not to be trespassed upon.

Just then, Ah Sha spotted the demoness. “You!”

The demoness felt completely exposed from that single glance. Not a single secret was left, and even her body and soul felt like they would collapse.

Strangely, even though Ah Sha hated the demoness the most, she made no attempt to attack.

“Young Master...” She simply glanced and then looked away, the deep glow in her eyes intensifying several times over again. “Don’t... Don’t leave me...”

Space trembled incessantly. Unable to bear the power of her eyes any longer, it abruptly shattered, revealing a portal half a zhang in length.

As if losing her soul, she walked into the portal like a puppet. “Young Master... I... won’t let you leave me!”

Space trembled slightly once more, and the portal closed in an instant.

Murong Yan and Shen Xuan were extremely anxious. “Ah Sha!”

Completely ignoring the demoness, they immediately turned back and frantically chased in the direction they came from.

The beguiling look on the demoness’ face was replaced by sheer terror. “What... Tearing space... How is that possible?! What is going on with her eyes?!”

In that instant just now, she felt Ah Sha could erase her with just one look. Even the Myriad Transformations Heavenly Demon Physique couldn’t block it. If Chongming’s effect on her was an innate suppression, then Ah Sha embodied complete insight and total annihilation—the kind of overbearing force that simply didn’t play by the rules.

She sighed softly, her voice losing its allure, tinged instead with sorrow. “Why didn’t she kill me? Is it because she saw my secret?”

***

The blindingly dazzling light pierced Di Kan’s eyes, and he didn’t dare look again. Indescribable terror gripped him. “The hell is that?!”

The huge follower, with higher cultivation than him, could see a bit more clearly. “It looks like it’s sword light?”

In the distance, the follower who had taunted Gu Han was still sneering when the sword light fell upon him. It obliterated him and the two nearby, leaving not even a single strand of hair behind.

The sword light came and left just as fast. Before anyone could react, it had already pierced upward, rushing straight toward the sky veil.

A moment later, Luan Ping snapped back to reality, breaking out in a cold sweat. If it weren’t for his cautious nature, he would’ve gotten close and perished as well.

Scared out of his wits, Luan Ping lashed out furiously. “How dare you bully me! I will tear you into a thousand pieces!”

With a sword light of that calibre, even his Holy Master would be dispatched from this world.

However, Gu Han seemed completely unable to hear his furious roar. He was motionless, his eyes tightly shut.

“Is he dead?”

“No, not yet!”

“Well, he soon will be!”

The crowd buzzed with discussion. Gu Han’s state was somewhat special. He was decaying and about to collapse, almost no signs of life could be felt. Even his soul power seemed to have completely stilled, with not a single trace of fluctuation coming through anymore. He was not much different from being dead.

In the distance, Di Kan felt somewhat regretful. “What a pity. I originally thought I could have another duel with him later... I guess there’s no chance now.”

Zhao Mengyou was expressionless. “Even if he lives, you have no chance either.”

”The storage ring!” Someone seemed to think of something. He quickly seized Gu Han’s storage ring and swept it with divine sense. His face first turned ashen, then contorted ferociously. “How infuriating! It’s actually empty!”

There wasn’t even a single hair inside. Gu Han had completely deceived them!

The man lost it, his powerful aura erupting. “I’ll kill you!”

He swung his palm, about to smash Gu Han to pieces. Luan Ping didn’t stop him. Gu Han wasn’t even worth the anger anymore.

Just then, the sound of space tearing came through, accompanied by Ah Sha’s voice. “How dare all of you harm Young Master! I’ll kill you all!”

Originally a pleasant girlish voice, it was now bone-chilling.

Not only did the man fail to circulate his qi, he suddenly floated. “What?!”

He had almost no control over his own body.

Ah Sha glared at him. “I. Want. You. Dead!”

The deep glow in her eyes had almost condensed into substance.

The man was horrified, frantically begging for help, “Save... Save me—”

He curled up at an unnatural angle. The sounds of bones breaking and blood shattering followed. In the blink of an eye, he was reduced to a bloody, fleshy ball half a chi in size. People would doubt he used to be a person. Another soft sound echoed, and the fleshy ball exploded.

The crowd was horrified to the point their scalps went numb. What kind of bizarre divine power—no, this can’t be explained by divine power anymore. Also, did she just tear space to get here?! Why and how did this little girl become so terrifying?!

Ah Sha paid them no attention, staring blankly as she walked toward Gu Han. “Young Master...” 𝒻𝑟ℯℯ

The deep glow in her eyes cascaded down and enveloped her completely, growing increasingly profound and terrifying.

A third-stage Transcendent realm cultivator could no longer bear it. He struck a palm at Ah Sha with all his might.

Ah Sha glanced at him. “You should die too!”

There was only endless coldness and bloodlust in her eyes, along with the projection of a world collapsing then reforming.

“No—”

The cultivator was powerless before her. He shattered into countless fragments, which dissolved into a skyful of blood mist that faded into oblivion.

Everyone’s backs were drenched with cold sweat. Not even a Saint realm cultivator could kill a Transcendent realm cultivator with one look! Ah Sha was even more terrifying than the sword light from before! After all, no matter how strong the sword light was, it was still within their scope of understanding.

In the distance, Di Kan swallowed his saliva, babbling incoherently, “I believe it now. So a gaze really can kill.”
