CHAPTER 1334: CHAPTER 1320: MIRACULOUS HEALING

The earthy yellow light enveloped the small tower.

This small tower may look as small as a walnut, but it is actually an Earth Venerate Level weapon.

As the earthy yellow light circulated around it.

The entire small tower expanded in an instant, like an earthy yellow peak.

Effortless.

In Zhuge Qingsong’s hand, it was as light as a feather. With a whoosh, the small tower tore through the void and shattered the air in front of it.

Moreover, it invoked the power of the earth.

Heavy.

Steady.

Irresistible!

Li Zheng’s expression changed abruptly: "Be careful!"

"It’s over! This Xuanhuang Tower is the Zhuge Clan’s ancestral treasure, its power is unrivaled!"

"Even an Earthly Honor stronghold can hardly withstand the impact of the Xuanhuang Tower, this..."

Amidst the exclamations.

Zhuge Qingsong’s face was icy, his resentful and sinister gaze fixed intensely on Xiao Yi: "As long as this little bastard is crushed to death, there will be no evidence. I don’t believe anyone would dare mention this again..."

The Zhuge Clan has been the leader of this faction for thousands of years.

All along.

In their camp, if anyone threatened to surpass them, Zhuge Qingsong would use similar methods to eliminate potential threats.

For many years.

There hadn’t been any problems.

Until Xiao Yi appeared and discovered the Earth Destruction Elixir, forcing him to take a deadly action.

As the Xuanhuang Pagoda was about to smash down on Xiao Yi’s head.

But just at this moment...

Xiao Yi’s lips curled up slightly.

Suddenly, his body swayed like the wind and clouds, like a dream, the space around him rippled with waves like water.

As the ripples circulated.

It seemed as if Xiao Yi passed through space-time barriers, dodging the Xuanhuang Pagoda’s attack in the nick of time.

"What?"

Zhuge Qingsong was shocked.

This Xuanhuang Pagoda contains the power of the earth, with the last strike, it felt like a thousand mountains were pressing down, making it impossible even for an Earthly Honor to dodge such pressure.

Yet Xiao Yi dodged it?

The shock hadn’t dissipated.

Zhuge Qingsong’s pupils shrank suddenly, reflecting a dark shadow in his pitch-black eyes, which was a punch shadow wrapped in a dark red storm.

"Not good!"

Zhuge Qingsong’s expression changed abruptly, subconsciously wanting to evade.

However...

He was currently controlling the Xuanhuang Pagoda, and was bound by the earth’s power within it, resulting in himself being as burdened as a mountain, making movement difficult.

He could only watch as the dark fist shadow came closer.

Boom!

In a swirling moment.

Zhuge Qingsong spewed a mouthful of fresh blood, his whole body flying out like a kite with a broken string, but before he could fly far, Xiao Yi was already in hot pursuit.

Xiao Yi grabbed his ankle.

Xiao Yi’s face was cold as he suddenly swung his arm.

Swish!

Zhuge Qingsong, like a whip, was flung by Xiao Yi, slamming hard onto the ground. His face became a bloody mess, yet Xiao Yi showed no mercy.

He swung again.

Bam!

Bam!

Bam!

Zhuge Qingsong was like a human whip, repeatedly flung, and slammed harshly onto the ground.

In an instant.

The ground was stained with blood.

Zhuge Qingsong howled incessantly.

Of course...

For an Earthly Honor, such attacks weren’t life-threatening, but to be so openly beaten in front of everyone’s eyes was humiliation.

Zhuge Qingsong is destined to be infamous, a laughingstock mocked by the world!

"I’ll kill you, I want to kill you..." Zhuge Qingsong’s eyes were bloodshot, his immense anger accompanied by boundless resentment, his eyes emitted a cold and sinister light, filled with malicious venom as they stared fixedly at Xiao Yi.

The hatred was so intense that it couldn’t even be described adequately.

"Stop!"

A voice filled with authority suddenly resonated from the void.

Everyone present was taken aback, showing expressions of seriousness and reverence.

Visible in the void.

A black jade chariot soared through the air, pulled grandly by two Nine Nirvana Rebirth Realm flood dragons. The immense flood dragon heads were menacing and majestic, with two long horns pointing diagonally at the sky.

"Is that the City Lord’s Black Dragon chariot?"

"The City Lord has been alarmed? This... things have escalated..."

Li Zheng’s expression slightly changed, he quietly reminded Xiao Yi, "Brother Xiao, stop quickly! This is the chariot of the City Lord of Qinglong City, it must be the City Lord himself..."

"City Lord of Qinglong City?"

Xiao Yi slightly nodded, the aura inside the chariot was infinitely stronger compared to Zhuge Qingsong, even Xiao Yi felt a slight sense of oppression.

It was definitely a Heaven Venerate Realm expert!

Zhuge Qingsong managed to gasp for air, he shouted loudly, "City Lord save me, this vile one is ruthless and tyrannical, daring to act so violently in public, it’s as if he disregards the law, not acknowledging you, City Lord!"

"Shut up!"

Xiao Yi snorted coldly, stepping forcefully on his throat.

A crisp cracking sound echoed.

Zhuge Qingsong’s throat was crushed underfoot, blood poured continuously from his mouth, making hoarse noises. The pain caused Zhuge Qingsong’s eyes to well with tears, in panic, he took out a pill and swallowed it.

This relieved him slightly enough to regain his ability to speak.

However...

At this moment, Zhuge Qingsong dared not utter a single word.

Afrayed that Xiao Yi would strike again.

Xiao Yi lifted his head toward the black jade chariot and spoke calmly, "Xiao Yi greets the City Lord!"

"Hmm!"

The voice from inside the chariot was calm yet authoritative, saying lightly, "Xiao Yi, why are you causing trouble in my Qinglong City?"

Xiao Yi was about to speak.

Li Zheng stepped forward and said, "Reporting to the City Lord, this matter is lengthy to explain..."

"Oh? Li Zheng?"

It was evident that the City Lord inside the black jade chariot recognized Li Zheng, and asked, "You may go ahead and explain!"

"Yes!"

Li Zheng glanced at Xiao Yi and Zhuge Qingsong on the ground, then said solemnly, "The City Lord should be aware that I was on the verge of reaching the Peak of Earth Revered Realm, a month ago, Zhuge gifted me an Earthly Hua Elixir, however..."

As Li Zheng continued his account.

A silence fell within the black jade chariot, until a moment later, the City Lord’s voice sounded again: "Zhuge Qingsong, do you have anything you wish to say?"

Zhuge Qingsong hurriedly said, "City Lord, please see clearly, this is all Xiao Yi’s slan... uh..." glancing at Xiao Yi who was about to act, he hastily corrected, "This boy’s attempt to frame me, I have spent a lifetime in alchemy, who doesn’t know I am known for being the Skillful Spring Heart, compassionate like a healer? How could I be involved in such things? Besides, catching a thief requires evidence, does he have proof? If not, it’s a blatant attempt to frame me..."

The City Lord spoke again, "Xiao Yi, do you have evidence? If not, you’re committing slander against a distinguished family of my Qinglong City, inciting conflict between families, causing chaos in my Qinglong City..."

"Evidence? That’s quite simple!"

Xiao Yi smiled confidently and walked over to Li Zheng, turning his head to the black jade chariot, "May I ask the City Lord, based on your knowledge, if the Li Family’s patriarch, in a normal case of breakthrough failure resulting in deviation, how long would it take for him to break through again?"

The City Lord paused briefly before replying, "At least several decades, possibly a century! Of course, if there were miraculous pills and extraordinary opportunities, perhaps it would only take a few years for him to breakthrough again!"

Xiao Yi looked at Zhuge Qingsong, "What do you think Zhuge?"

"This..."

Zhuge Qingsong opened his mouth, eventually nodding and saying, "What the City Lord said is common knowledge!"

"Very well!"

Xiao Yi nodded and continued, "If Li Zheng truly experienced normal breakthrough failure, even with extraordinary opportunities and miraculous pills, it would take several years to breakthrough again, but I affirm he failed due to the Earth Destruction Elixir’s poison, and as long as I remove the poison, he will breakthrough immediately. Do you believe it?"

Ah!

Everyone present gasped in astonishment.

Immediate breakthrough?

How is that possible?

Zhuge Qingsong couldn’t stop himself from indulging in silent laughter, looking disdainfully at Xiao Yi, thinking: Such bravado! Even I cannot dispel the Earth Destruction Elixir’s poison, who do you think you are?

Even Li Zheng found it difficult to believe as he looked at Xiao Yi.

The City Lord inside the black jade chariot asked, "Zhuge Qingsong, what do you think of this?"

Zhuge Qingsong, brimming with confidence, replied, "It’s possible!"

The City Lord responded, "Since that’s the case, then, as you suggested..."

Xiao Yi glanced at Zhuge Qingsong, who was looking smug, the corner of his mouth curled slightly upward, he made a throat-slitting gesture, and slowly began to speak, "Perhaps you believe that the Earth Destruction Elixir has no antidote, hence your confidence... but today I will show you what true skillful rejuvenation really means..."
