Chapter 136: Chapter 131: Xiao Chan: Did I Strike Too Hard?

Ferocious Phenomenon Cyan Light Sword!

CRACK!

Before the giant foot even landed, two terrifying cracks appeared on the ground.

By combining their strength, the three had pushed this Swordsmanship to its absolute limit, its power rivaling even a Tier One High Grade Swordsmanship. Even a Ninth Layer Cultivator would have to evade its edge. But instead, Chen Che simply raised his sword in a sealing, closing motion and intercepted the attack in an instant.

BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!

Amidst the earth-shattering roar, terrifying Sword Qi erupted from the four of them, surging madly in all directions like a passing typhoon. The surrounding tables and chairs were instantly shredded to pieces, followed by the stage, the serving girls, the walls...

Everything was reduced to dust.

In a single moment, more than half of the small courtyard had collapsed.

Those standing nearby were blown back by the force, their faces aghast as they retreated. Even Xiao Chan, hiding in a tree, felt the wind cut his face like a knife, and the surrounding leaves let out a harsh RUSTLE.

"What happened?"

"Did they kill him?"

Everyone strained their eyes to see, desperate to know the outcome.

The heavy rain splattered down, and the dust settled.

Chen Che was still standing in the same spot, his feet planted half a foot deep in the ground, the Pure Jun Sword held horizontally before him. He had stopped the other three swords mid-air, looking completely unscathed.

"How is that possible?"

The three attackers’ eyes were filled with pure horror.

And in that moment, Chen Che returned their attack with a sword strike of his own.

"Not good!"

The sword strike seemed unremarkable, but in the eyes of his opponents, it was like a thunderclap splitting the night sky. Their expressions changed, but it was already too late to dodge.

With a single pass of the blade, the three bodies were split into six pieces, severed at the waist. Blood sprayed everywhere as they collapsed to the ground.

"So strong!"

The faces of everyone in the courtyard changed dramatically.

"Ah!"

Another scream rang out.

Just as Xiao Chan watched in shock, another Primordial Sect disciple was struck by Chen Che’s palm.

Even though the disciple managed to summon a Magical Artifact to defend himself in time, the palm strike sent him flying. He smashed through the courtyard wall, then snapped seven or eight ancient trees—each so thick it would take two or three people to encircle—before finally coming to a stop, his body a crumpled mess.

Clearly, every bone in his body had been shattered by that single blow.

In the blink of an eye, of the dozen or so people in the courtyard, only half remained.

Even those who were left were pale as death, their legs trembling.

"This guy’s too strong! We have to get out of here!"

"Go!"

With a rush of wind, the remaining disciples in the courtyard shot away, scattering in an instant and fleeing toward the mountain forest in different directions.

"Trying to escape?"

Chen Che’s gaze swept over them.

Of course they were trying to escape. Major Sect Disciples were still human, not Death Warriors. Who wouldn’t be terrified after seeing their brothers slaughtered like chickens and dogs, unable to put up the slightest resistance?

’First, we escape. Then we report back to the Sect! I don’t care if he’s connected to Xiao Chan or not—he killed our Sect’s people. We can never let him get away with this!’

As this thought crossed their minds, they moved even faster.

They reasoned that with so many of them scattering in all directions, Chen Che, no matter how strong, could only chase one person. He couldn’t possibly catch them all.

As long as they got out of the small courtyard, they could make a clean getaway.

In just a moment, the dense forest was right in front of them. Just as they were about to breathe a sigh of relief... a leisurely voice suddenly came from behind:

"Thinking of leaving now? Isn’t it a bit late for that?"

Chen Che chuckled, his eyes flashing as he slowly extended his right hand.

In that instant, a strange power swept across the field. The fleeing disciples felt as if they had been targeted by a Fierce Beast.

For a moment, even the wind and rain seemed to stop. Then, as Chen Che clenched his fist, the strands of rain converged like a tornado. In an instant, the endless storm transformed into a hail of bullets!

PFFT!

A tearing sound filled the air. The disciples fleeing through the sky were instantly riddled with holes by the raindrops, falling to the ground like birds with broken wings. THUD, THUD, THUD.

"One left..."

Chen Che turned his head to look.

This Primordial Sect disciple had been wounded by Sword Qi earlier and was staggering out of the courtyard. When he saw Chen Che look his way, his foot froze mid-stride, caught in a moment of sheer indecision.

"Chen Che, you dare to attack us? Aren’t you afraid of the Primordial Sect’s retaliation..."

"I am."

Chen Che nodded.

The disciple’s face lit up with joy. It was a good sign that Chen Che was afraid.

He was just about to speak when Chen Che flicked his finger. A streak of Sword Qi shot out like an arrow, and with a dull thud, a spray of blood erupted from the back of the disciple’s head. He was utterly and completely dead.

’Why would you kill me if you’re afraid?’

His eyes were wide with incomprehension.

It seemed that even in death, he couldn’t understand why Chen Che would still dare to kill him despite being afraid of the Primordial Sect’s revenge.

And so, in the ruined courtyard, not one of the thirteen Primordial Sect disciples remained, leaving only Chen Che standing alone.

Blood stained the ground red before being washed away by the heavy rain.

"Much better... I’ve finally let off some steam."

Exhaling a breath he had been holding for a long time, Chen Che felt his mood lighten considerably. The idea that stepping back opens up a wider world was for other people. For him, this world still operated on the principle of an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!

However, he did notice one thing: these Major Sect Disciples were indeed much stronger than Loose Cultivators.

Perhaps their training was simply more complete...

Meanwhile, Xiao Chan had never imagined that this smiling Pill Master could be so terrifying once he made a move. The entire process was utterly devoid of hesitation. In fact, when it came to decisive killing, even he—an Evil Cultivator hunted by all—felt he couldn’t compare.

Just as this thought crossed his mind, he saw Chen Che scan the surroundings before his gaze suddenly landed on his hiding spot.
