Chapter 79: Luo Xiaotian
🕑 Added 2024-09-15 04:54:57 +0000 UTC"Ah, this feels good."
As the system's notifications flowed in, Ye Fan felt a surge of satisfaction. His energy points had increased significantly, and the evolution points had also accumulated nicely.
At this moment, his evolution points had already surpassed fifty thousand!
"Zhang Tianchong, I know you were controlled by that blade, but in the end, you had to die."
Ren Xing muttered as he stared at Zhang Tianchong's corpse, speaking to himself.
Killing Zhang Tianchong allowed the Demon-Slaying Sword to absorb his blood essence, replenishing the blood energy that Ren Xing had just consumed.
"This sword is incredibly powerful!"
Ren Xing burst into laughter as he gazed at the Demon-Slaying Sword in his hand. The sword's strength had far exceeded his expectations.
He never imagined that this weapon could become so mighty.
Moreover, after absorbing so much blood, the sword had taken on an even more sinister and eerie quality. Its sharpness had also noticeably increased, making Ren Xing feel increasingly elated.
"Who’s there!?"
Suddenly, he sensed a strong presence approaching. He quickly spun around and saw a figure leaping toward him.
"Where’s Zhang Tianchong!?"
A middle-aged man holding a long sword landed on the ground and immediately spoke.
"Lord Luo."
Ren Xing recognized the newcomer as Luo Xiaotian, the newly appointed city lord of Star City.
"Where did Zhang Tianchong escape to?"
Luo Xiaotian nodded slightly and looked around.
"He's over here."
Ren Xing pointed to the ground beside him. Luo Xiaotian followed the gesture and saw Zhang Tianchong’s body, split in two.
"Zhang Tianchong… has been killed?"
"You did this?"
Luo Xiaotian’s eyes were filled with disbelief. He had been wounded while battling Zhang Tianchong and failed to kill him. Now, to his astonishment, Zhang Tianchong had been slain.
"Yes."
"And the blade?"
"Right here."
Ren Xing pointed to the shattered remnants of the demonic blade on the ground. The weapon had lost its terrifying, bloodthirsty aura.
Luo Xiaotian was even more shocked.
"Even Zhang Tianchong’s demonic blade is destroyed… How did you do it?"
"Of course, it was shattered by my divine sword." Ren Xing spoke with a tone full of pride.
Luo Xiaotian’s gaze shifted to the Demon-Slaying Sword in Ren Xing’s hand. The sword was still emitting an immensely powerful and sinister aura, one that made him feel uneasy.
"May I have a look?"
Luo Xiaotian extended his hand.
"That won’t be happening."
Ren Xing shook his head. He didn’t trust anyone, and now, he wouldn’t let this sword out of his sight.
"This Luo Xiaotian seems a bit suspicious," Ye Fan remarked as he observed Luo Xiaotian.
"But still, I haven’t received any system notification that Lin San is dead."
"Looks like Lin San really escaped death this time." Ye Fan sighed with amazement.
"Fine, let’s head back."
Luo Xiaotian smiled as he approached Ren Xing, but just as he got close, his expression turned icy. Without warning, his left hand shot out in a swift strike!
Whoosh—
In a split second, Ren Xing’s body shifted, narrowly dodging the attack.
Boom—
Luo Xiaotian’s palm strike hit a tree in the distance, shattering it instantly.
"Luo Xiaotian! How dare you attack me!" Ren Xing growled as he dodged to the side.
"That sword in your hand is a demonic weapon! It’s affecting your mind. You need to hand it over, or else…"
Luo Xiaotian spoke coldly.
"Heh, you just want my sword, don’t you?"
Ren Xing sneered and laughed. "You think I’ll give it to you? No chance!"
His expression darkened as he spoke, and his voice turned menacing.
"In that case, you’ll have to die."
Luo Xiaotian’s eyes glinted with murderous intent. He drew his long sword and lunged at Ren Xing.
Luo Xiaotian, a peak sixth-tier warrior!
Ren Xing didn’t dare to be careless. Despite his confidence, he was no fool.
With a swift movement, Ren Xing activated Bloodthirsty Frenzy again, sacrificing more of his blood essence to strengthen himself.
As the blood energy swirled around him, Ren Xing’s power surged. The Demon-Slaying Sword radiated a terrifying aura as he thrust it forward to meet Luo Xiaotian’s attack.
Sparks flew as their weapons clashed.
Luo Xiaotian staggered back a few steps from the sheer force of the collision, his eyes wide with shock.
"How is he this powerful?"
Luo Xiaotian wondered as he looked at Ren Xing.
"This sword can grant immense power. No one will take it from me!"
Ren Xing roared as he swung his sword, unleashing Nether Flame Soul Slash!
A terrifying crescent-shaped white flame shot toward Luo Xiaotian.
Luo Xiaotian's eyes widened in alarm as he attempted to dodge.
Boom!
The flame grazed him, melting part of his armor into molten metal.
"Ah!!!"
Luo Xiaotian screamed as the molten iron seared his skin, adhering to his flesh. The pain was excruciating.
"You’ll pay for this!"
Luo Xiaotian roared in fury, unleashing a powerful palm strike.
Mountain-Crushing Palm!
A massive energy palm formed and slammed into Ren Xing’s body, sending him crashing into a tree with a heavy thud.
Thud!
Ren Xing spat out a mouthful of blood.
"Indeed, a peak sixth-tier warrior. Impressive."
Ren Xing wiped the blood from his mouth, then burst into laughter.
"But now, I’ll show you my true power."
He grinned wickedly, gripping the Demon-Slaying Sword tightly as he charged forward again.
During the battle, Ren Xing had already gauged Luo Xiaotian’s strength. With Luo Xiaotian injured and his power not fully recovered, Ren Xing believed he now had the upper hand.
"Your position as city lord will be mine, Luo Xiaotian!"
