Urban Martial Saint

The Immortal Lord’s voice carried a sense of intimidation, coupled with his eerie laughter, resembling a ghostly wail. Even without making a move against you, he already made your heart pound, leaving you unsure of how to respond.

The old man clenched his teeth, watching as the last person beside him was caught by the Immortal Lord, drained of Inner Strength, his face also turning red, as if seething with anger. Yet, he did not turn to flee, instead, he stood there fixing his gaze on the Immortal Lord, his eyes full of venomous light, seeming to brim with hatred toward him.

The Immortal Lord ignored his gaze, having killed the last person beside him, but did not immediately strike the old man. Instead, he leisurely watched him and said, ”Now you’re the only one left. You should plan well on how to punish your audacity. Daring to speak to me like that, killing you would be too easy. I will drain your strength first, but won’t kill you, preserving your life, then let you taste my methods, showing you what is meant by a fate worse than death!”

The old man’s face turned redder, gritting his teeth, he said word by word, ”The events of today, my lord will know. When my lord descends, you will be the first to die!”

”Ah, I’m waiting for him!” The Immortal Lord laughed wildly, suddenly lunging forward, reaching for the old man’s shoulder. But as his hand touched the old man’s shoulder, he seemed to be startled like seeing a ghost, letting out a scream before turning to flee.

But it was already too late. The old man suddenly let out a roar, his body instantly turning blood red, as if all his blood were on the skin’s surface. The moment the Immortal Lord retreated, it was too late, the old man’s body exploded like a bomb. A white light burst forth, rapidly expanding, powerful energy fiercely erupted out, like the shockwave from a bomb explosion, directly sending the Immortal Lord flying backward, even the Wanyan Family members guarding the gorge entrance were all shaken by the force, retreating several steps.

As for the Immortal Lord, being too close to the old man, he fully absorbed the explosive force, getting blasted tens of meters away before halting. Moreover, the old man’s body exploded into pieces, flesh and blood splattered all over the Immortal Lord, making him look extraordinarily terrifying, covered head to toe in blood and flesh.

The Wanyan Family members were shocked, unexpectedly, the old man had such a technique. Now it seemed, the old man’s redness in the face wasn’t due to agitation, but because he was accumulating strength, preparing for this self-detonation situation. Once the Immortal Lord was beside him, he detonated, wounding him.

”Undying Senior! Undying Senior!” Wanyan Hongsheng hurriedly shouted, worried that the Immortal Lord couldn’t withstand such terror from the old man’s self-detonation.

The Immortal Lord staggered to rise, took a deep breath, cursed angrily, ”That old thing still had such a move, really unguarded, almost suffered huge losses.”

Seeing the Immortal Lord unharmed, Wanyan Hongsheng also relaxed. The Immortal Lord is a support for the Wanyan Family, if he were blown to death, it would be a great loss.

”The Church people had such self-exploding techniques, really powerful,” Wanyan Hongsheng said, ”Seems we’ve underestimated the Church people before, their Cultivation Power isn’t weak either!”

”This old thing’s strength should be no less than that of Du Canglang. So the power of this self-detonation is so great!” The Immortal Lord inhaled deeply, said in a deep voice, ”Fortunately, this force is still weaker than Buddha’s Relic. I could withstand Buddha’s Relic’s power, much less his. It’s a pity I couldn’t absorb his power, really wasted!”

Wanyan Hongsheng was shocked, he didn’t know how terrifying Buddha’s Relic’s power was, since during Ye Qing’s battle with Corpse Ghost Dragon, he wasn’t watching. But the old man’s self-detonation power just now, he clearly saw and felt. This power, he’s very clear on. Now the Immortal Lord said this self-detonation power was not as powerful as Buddha’s Relic, made him understand how terrifying Buddha’s Relic’s power might be.

The Immortal Lord jumped into the pond, washed off the blood and flesh, then leapt out. The Wanyan Family cleared the battlefield, the Church’s people met their demise here, witnessing the Immortal Lord’s formidable strength firsthand.

However, they were puzzled by the old man’s words, he repeatedly said ”my lord, my lord,” what did this mean?

”Undying Senior, just now, what did the old man mean by ’my lord’, who exactly is this?” Wanyan Hongsheng asked curiously.

”I don’t know either.” The Immortal Lord shrugged and said, ”Probably the Church’s master. I’ve heard each generation’s Church master is considered like a deity, regarded as everyone’s lord. So when speaking outward, mentioning the Church’s master, they proclaim ’my lord.’

”Then ’my lord descends’, what does this mean?” Wanyan Hongsheng looked at the Church people’s corpses around, wondering, ”Could it be the Church doesn’t have a master now?”

”Who knows, matters of the Church are not well-known here. If Wuji were here, he’d surely know, but I don’t.” The Immortal Lord waved his hand, ”Doesn’t matter, in this world, strength rules. If the Church people are truly strong, we have no choice if they aren’t, they cannot cause any major waves. Better to deal with our own affairs than speculate about the Church.”

”That’s true.” Wanyan Hongsheng nodded slowly, curious about the Church, but didn’t think much further. After all, the Wanyan Family’s focus is Heaven Earth Man Three Gates, in establishing a nation in Fusang. After founding, Church and Huaxia’s affairs are not theirs to meddle, irrelevant to them, why bother?

While they busied themselves here, the Immortal Lord suddenly stood again, looked at the gorge entrance, frowned, ”Hey, such coincidence today, people keep arriving in waves?”

”More people coming?” Wanyan Hongsheng looked at the gorge entrance, his strength far inferior to the Immortal Lord, naturally couldn’t hear the footsteps outside, unaware of people arriving.

The Immortal Lord nodded and said, ”Yes, and the ones coming aren’t weak. Among newcomers, one’s strength is much stronger than the old man’s just now!”

”What?” Wanyan Hongsheng’s face changed, the old man according to the Immortal Lord wasn’t weaker than Du Canglang. Now the Immortal Lord said outsiders are much stronger, this situation is terrifying. Are the newcomers’ strength far above Du Canglang?

Know that Du Canglang himself is one of the Huaxia’s Peak Masters, extremely terrifying strength. If he is a Peak Master, few are stronger than him!

As Wanyan Hongsheng was astonished, several figures already turned in from the gorge entrance. Wanyan Hongsheng looked closely, his face lit up with joy. Because the arrivals were none other than Fu Qingping, Huangfu Ziyu, and Wolf Monk!

Fu Qingping and Du Canglang were figures of the same era as Wanyan Hongsheng, so he is well aware of their fame and strength. Seeing Fu Qingping approach, he felt relieved. After all, Fu Qingping’s strength is not less than Du Canglang. However, the Immortal Lord said his strength far surpasses Du Canglang, which Wanyan Hongsheng didn’t believe. Even if Fu Qingping’s strength is slightly stronger, it shouldn’t be much different, not far stronger.

He didn’t know, Fu Qingping heard Ye Qing explain Buddha’s Relic’s power, and witnessed its force, gaining a new understanding of realms above Peak Master. His strength is rapidly increasing, advancing quickly. Last time in a four-person duel against Nalan Jingwei and others, it showed his rapid advancement. Now his strength indeed far surpasses Du Canglang.

Following Du Canglang’s trail, Fu Qingping led the trio to find the Doomsday Sect. Fu Qingping and Wolf Monk knew something of this sect, while Huangfu Ziyu knew nothing, hearing from Fu Qingping and Wolf Monk en route. They guessed Du Canglang and Ye Qing came seeking Tianzhu Sword, planning to ambush Du Canglang there, to rescue Ye Qing. Unexpectedly, arriving at Doomsday Sect, they encountered Wanyan’s group.

Fu Qingping recognized Wanyan Hongsheng from their era, and knows Wanyan Family’s concealed ambition, long gathering strength. Seeing Wanyan’s group, Fu Qingping knew they were Wanyan Family.

Given Fu Qingping’s current strength, even with many Wanyan Family masters present, poses no threat to him. However, his expression changed upon seeing the Immortal Lord.

He stared at the skull emblem on the Immortal Lord’s attire for a while, then frowned at him, said sternly, ”Immortal Lord?”

”Hahaha...” The Immortal Lord laughed arrogantly, having resurfaced, everyone recognizing his name, making him proud. Suppressed a hundred years at the Doomsday Sect, newly returning to the world, yet so many remembered his name, it was delightful anyone would be proud.
