Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1538: Chapter 1535: Hanging by a Thread

”If I hadn’t received the order to eliminate you, our lives would never intersect!”

The Shadow stood proudly like a Demon Lord descending upon the world.

The pitch-black longsword in his hand seemed capable of cleaving through the heavens, its endless aura of slaughter surged, making hearts tremble with fear.

He slowly raised the longsword, mysterious runes danced upon its blade like ancient demon patterns, as if summoning the power of destruction.

He suddenly took a step forward, a step that seemed to shatter the universe.

The earth instantly cracked, endless fissures spread out like a spider web, a terrifying aura spread wildly like an apocalypse storm.

Upon sensing this atmosphere, the crowd shuddered, with a near suffocating illusion.

In the next moment.

The Shadow swung his longsword.

Black Sword Qi shot out like a divine light opening the heavens.

Where the Sword Qi passed, space was torn apart like fragile glass, leaving a hideous and terrifying crack.

The formation arranged by Xu Wendong trembled violently under the onslaught of this heaven-defying Sword Qi.

The light of the runes on the formation flickered desperately like a candle in the wind, attempting to resist the terrifying attack, but against that primordial torrent-like black Sword Qi, it appeared so small and powerless.

At this moment.

Xu Wendong felt an absurd illusion.

As if he were a lone boat in a vast ocean.

While the Shadow seemed like a raging wave, ready to capsize him at any moment.

Black Sword Qi, with unstoppable momentum, crashed fiercely against the formation.

In an instant, a thunderous bang like ancient divine thunder erupted, luminescence like ten suns so brilliant, it was impossible to look directly.

The mighty impact spread madly around like the roar of an ancient divine beast, nearby buildings were instantly annihilated like sandcastles, turning to powder.

Only two courtyards within the formation stood before everyone’s eyes.

Xu Wendong only felt a force capable of destroying all things rushing toward him, he frantically poured his power into the formation, making his final resistance.

However.

The power of the black Sword Qi was overwhelmingly strong, and under its impact, the formation could not bear the weight for a mere moment before emitting a despairing wail and then dissipated into nothingness...

Puff!

Xu Wendong was struck by the mighty impact force, his body flew out like a kite with a broken string, tracing an arc in the air before heavily crashing back down.

Blood gushed from his mouth, splattering in the air like blossoming scarlet flowers.

Multiple bones were fractured in his body, the sound of breaking bones was clearly audible.

His skin was torn by the powerful impact, blood continuously flowed out, soaking his clothes red.

His face turned as pale as paper, devoid of blood color, his gaze filled with despair and unwillingness.

The crowd, seeing this, all revealed eyes filled with excitement.

Their voices rose one after another, as if trying to drown Xu Wendong in a tide of anger.

”Blood sacrifice Xu Wendong!”

”Kill him, bring peace to the Underground City!”

”He is a harbinger of doom, must die!”

Wang Tong and Zhen Jing showed triumphant smiles, their faces brimming with the joy of victory. Wang Tong laughed heartily, his laughter full of mockery and disdain.

”Xu Wendong, you have finally lost. Did you really think you could stand against us? Too naive.”

Zhen Jing excitedly remarked, ”This is the fate of opposing us. Today, you are doomed to die.”

They couldn’t wait to see Xu Wendong executed, to satisfy their hatred.

Si Yao saw this scene, her heart filled with pain and anger.

Her eyes widened, tears instantly spilling forth.

She struggled to stand up to help Xu Wendong, but she was gravely injured, utterly powerless.

She could only bite her lip tightly, even if it bled, she was oblivious.

”Xu Wendong, you can’t die!” Si Yao shouted in her heart.

Lu Shuling and Xue Yan and others all looked shocked and in despair.

They watched as Xu Wendong lay wounded on the ground, as if their hearts were being cut.

Although they wanted to do something.

But they all knew.

In the face of absolute power.

Whatever they did was in vain.

They clenched their fists tightly, nails dug deeply into their palms, yet they felt no pain.

For in their hearts, the sky had fallen!

”What should we do? What should we do?” Lu Shuling said anxiously.

Xue Yan gritted her teeth, tears glimmering in her eyes: ”We can’t just watch him being executed.”

Shadow slowly walked towards Xu Wendong, his stride heavy and determined, each step seemed to tread upon everyone’s hearts.

He reached Xu Wendong’s side, stepped firmly on Xu Wendong, pressing him hard underfoot.

Xu Wendong groaned in pain, but his gaze remained defiant.

”Do you think you can escape?” The Shadow’s voice was cold and merciless, ”You’re just an ant, that lord demands your death, and you must die!”

As the words fell, his right foot lifted, heavily pressing down on Xu Wendong again.

The sight of this.

Si Yao and the others couldn’t conceal their fear and despair.

While Wang Tong, Zhen Jing, and the gathering townsfolk revealed a bloodthirsty gleam in their eyes.

Puff!

Finally.

The Shadow’s right foot landed on Xu Wendong’s chest.

Accompanied by a crisp sound of bones cracking, Xu Wendong’s chest collapsed instantly, more scarlet blood spewing from his mouth.

”Hmm?”

Seeing that Xu Wendong hadn’t died immediately underfoot, the Shadow showed a surprised look, evidently not expecting his defenses to be so strong.

After all, when he stepped down before, even a strong Profound Immortal would be turned into pulp.

And this guy only had an Earth Immortal Peak cultivation level.

Wang Tong and Zhen Jing watched everything with schadenfreude.

”Haha, Xu Wendong, so even you have this day?” Wang Tong said.

Zhen Jing: ”You might as well obediently die.”

”Kill him!”

”Kill this inauspicious person!”

”Sacrifice him to the wrongful dead in the city!” Distant townsfolk shouted.

”Die!”

The Shadow uttered apathetic notes.

Then he slowly lifted his foot, terrifying immortal energy spread from under his foot, giving the impression that it could crush mountains and the sky.

”Die!”

Lu Shuling and Xue Yan struck simultaneously.

The two wielded swords charging toward the Shadow.

”Scram!”

The Shadow’s eyes gleamed coldly.

He didn’t move, but a single look rendered Lu Shuling and Xue Yan’s minds blank, instantly knocking them unconscious.

Before a powerful Daluo Golden Immortal, cultivators of other realms were like ants.

Meanwhile.

The Shadow’s right foot descended heavily upon Xu Wendong’s head, seemingly intending to crush his skull.

But at the most critical moment.

An angry roar resounded through the sky: ”Who dares harm my beloved disciple?”
