Great Love Immortal Venerate: Why are all my fairies yandere?

The middle-aged scholar didn't have time to think further, his fair palm flipped, and a token shone forth, which he crushed fiercely.

"Sevenfold Endless Heaven-Covering Divine Shield."

As the token shattered, seven budding shields, condensed from spiritual power, enveloped the middle-aged scholar.

Boom!

The Thunder Dragon, which had made its way to him, showed a trace of human-like disdain in its eyes, and then spat out the Thunderfire Divine Sword, striking with the sword in its mouth.

Under that majestic and magnificent light, the first, second, third, and fourth buds almost instantly blossomed and withered away.

The sword light hesitated, almost insignificantly, as it cut through the fifth and sixth buds.

By the time it reached the last, the seventh bud, the Thunderfire Sword paused for an instant.

And it was this instant that provided enough breathing space.

In the blink of an eye, beneath the seventh bud shield, the eighth, ninth, tenth, and eleventh buds quickly condensed and appeared.

A flash of anger crossed the eyes of the Thunder Dragon, and atop the hilt it held, a slender Charming Shadow, like an illusion, emerged.

In the next moment, the Thunder Dragon entered the sword, and the light flared immensely.

The same scene unfolded again, except this time, even though the Sevenfold Endless Heaven-Covering Divine Shield would replenish a layer almost instantly with each layer's shattering, it still couldn't withstand the exceedingly fast sword light.

After the eightieth layer, the Sevenfold Endless Heaven-Covering Divine Shield finally shattered all at once and was declared ineffective.

All this seemed lengthy to describe, but in the eyes of the onlookers, it happened in the blink of an eye.

In their perception, after the scholar crushed the token, he had just raised his hands covered in spiritual light to protect his face.

Just as his hands were positioned to shield his face, the sword light penetrated through.

A thunderous vibration.

The once bustling and exquisite inn, now vanished, leaving only a massive pit in its stead.

If not for Dawn City's protective Formation, far more than this inn would have fallen.

Amid the rolling clouds of dust, the sword light of the Thunderfire Sword flew out and returned to Xu Yuan, whose face now bore a hint of paleness.

At this moment, everyone present, except for Lin Qingque, was completely dumbstruck.

Nobody had anticipated that in less than the blink of an eye, the middle-aged scholar, who had just appeared to have the upper hand and carried himself like an expert,

Lan Mei's feathers trembled slightly at her brow, the corners of her mouth lifting in a smile: "It seems I've underestimated him."

And Zhong Sheng's face turned as dark as could be. Discover more stories at empire

If it were him, he wouldn't necessarily dare to contend with that move.

The reaction of these disciples from top Sects upon seeing the move was already such, let alone that of other ordinary Loose Cultivators.

"Is this motherfucker really a Foundation Establishment Realm Cultivator!?"

At this moment, this thought was the only thing on everyone's minds.

Are Foundation Establishment Cultivators so fierce these days?

"Senior brother."

Lin Qingque approached him, discreetly supporting him, and whispered: "Why did we have to trouble him? Logically speaking, people like them shouldn't be causing trouble for us."

More than those Loose Cultivators who had come to trouble them, Lin Qingque despised Zhong Sheng even more.

Dared to speak ill of her senior brother, as Tian Liuli would say, was already earning oneself a path to death.

That's why she didn't understand Xu Yuan's methods.

"Deterrence."

Xu Yuan stated expressionlessly.

In reality, he was worried that just relying on those Core Formation and Foundation Establishment Cultivators wouldn't pose any threat to Lin Qingque.

So he had painstakingly singled out that one.

"Oh, that's how it is."

Lin Qingque didn't harbor too many doubts,

After all, Xu Yuan's reasoning did hold some truth.

She performed a Dao Wind Skill, blowing the dust in front of them away

Soon, the middle-aged scholar's face, still wearing a look of disbelief, appeared before everyone.

He lay there silently, his body covered with sword wounds, seemingly already dead.

"Hiss—"

A collective gasp, like the intake of a cold breath, rose in unison.

Before the dust had cleared, they were still hopeful that the Core Formation Cultivator hadn't died, but now, seeing his pitiful state, they had to abandon that flicker of hope.

Even though there were elements of a surprise attack and the opponent's carelessness in Xu Yuan's strike, the fact that a Cultivator at the peak of Foundation Establishment Great Perfection realm had cut down a mid-Core Formation Cultivator with a single sword blow was still an almost unbelievable fact.

A Foundation Establishment Cultivator killing a Core Formation with a single sword, and not just any Core Formation, how outrageous is that?!

If they had known Xu Yuan's combat prowess was so terrifying, they would definitely not have chosen to come here.

What they didn't know was that on the other side of Dawn City, an even more astonishing event was unfolding, and the Loose Cultivators there were having an even greater meltdown.

If they had known, they would certainly be glad they hadn't gone there.

In the distance, atop a tall building, there floated a Nine-Layered Glazed Pagoda, radiating a brilliant light. With the Liuli Pagoda hanging above, Tian Liuli stood high in the sky, watching from afar in the direction of Princess Luoyang's residence, casually making her moves.

Every strike she made was bound to bring down someone, regardless of the realm level, be it early Foundation Establishment or Great Perfection of Core Formation, under her command with the enhancement of the Immortal Artifact Liuli Pagoda, there was almost no distinction.

And on the street below, more than a dozen people lay scattered haphazardly.

Besides, there stood the ethereal figure of a beautiful woman beside her; if someone familiar with Qiushui Shengong were here, they would be shocked to discover that this phantom figure was the reigning Palace Master of Qiushui Shengong.
