Chapter 186: Chapter 186 The Sky-Stepping Sect Bullies Intolerably!

Leave my corpse intact?

Yang Xiaotian looked at the Wu Family expert with indifference and suddenly, with a spread of his right palm, countless Sword Qi burst forth.

So many Sword Qi—there were as many as a thousand swords!

A thousand strands of Sword Qi!

The strength of the Sword Qi caused the Wu Family expert’s face to change drastically.

In a state of shock, the expert had just raised layers of radiant light, only to be punctured by a thousand strands of Sword Qi.

A thousand strands of Sword Qi pierced straight through his neck, then shot out the other side, slamming into the distant courtyard wall.

On that distant courtyard wall, constructed of fine gangstone, a thousand dense sword holes appeared.

The Hao Family expert stood there, his body stiff, staring ahead with eyes filled with shock.

Next, from where his neck was pierced by the Sword Qi, columns of blood sprayed out.

These blood columns were not large, but they were densely packed, numbering exactly one thousand.

The blood formed a bizarre pattern on the ground around it.

After a pause, the Wu Family expert’s body crashed to the ground, and his head rolled to a corner of the courtyard wall before finally coming to a stop.

This time, Yang Xiaotian had assimilated the lightning-attributed Innate Sword Spirit, once again bringing the Perfection Realm’s Swordsmanship Divine Ability to the level of Summit Mastery.

Just now, he had executed the Skywalking Thousand Swords at its peak.

Skywalking Thousand Swords, one of the Tiandou Academy’s top ten Swordsmanship Divine Abilities, had been cultivated to the level of Summit Mastery, and its power exceeded Yang Xiaotian’s expectations.

After killing the Wu Family expert, Yang Xiaotian did not stay and left the palace.

Assimilating the Innate Sword Spirit had delayed him for several days, so he had to find the Sixfold Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water as soon as possible.

Exiting the palace, he continued towards the center of the cave dwelling.

However, just as Yang Xiaotian was heading towards the central palace of the cave dwelling, he saw a large group of masters fleeing in panic.

“Sky-Stepping Sect is too bullying! On what grounds does Zhu Xuan say that every blade of grass and every item in the Thunder God Cave belongs to their Sky-Stepping Sect!”

“Moreover, he demands that everyone who enters the Thunder God Cave must hand over everything they have to him! Damn it! How are they any different from bandits and robbers!”

“With Zhu Xuan here, we might as well forget about the things in the Thunder God Cave and just leave quickly!”

“Leave? Zhu Xuan said he has guards stationed outside the Thunder God Cave, and anyone who wants to leave must hand over everything they have, otherwise, they’ll be opposing the Sky-Stepping Sect. Now, who dares to leave?”

A large group of masters fleeing in panic, their faces filled with righteous indignation and rage.

Now, they wish to leave but dare not leave.

Wanting to stay but also fearing to remain.

“Damn it, even a cornered dog will jump over a wall. We might as well fight Zhu Xuan to the death!”

“Fight to the death? Don’t forget how the Mad Blade Sect, Golden Hoof Valley, Wind God Sea, and Sword Venerable Mansion were annihilated by the Sky-Stepping Sect! Over the years, how many empires and Supreme Sects have been destroyed by the Sky-Stepping Sect? It doesn’t matter if we die in battle, but our families will be implicated.”

“Besides, before Zhu Xuan entered, he was already at the Supreme Emperor Realm. Even though he has suppressed his realm with an ancient talisman, his strength inside the cave remains unbeatable. What can we use to fight him to death?”

Listening to the heated discussions of the group of masters, Yang Xiaotian was taken aback—Sky-Stepping Sect’s Zhu Xuan?

Watching the large group of masters flee far away, Yang Xiaotian looked towards the central direction of the cave dwelling and stepped forward.

At that moment, not far ahead in the courtyard of a certain palace, Liu Hongmei glared furiously at five subordinates of Zhu Xuan: “How dare you! I am a princess of the Unparalleled Royal Family, and yet you dare to search my person!”

One of Zhu Xuan’s subordinates sneered, “The title of Princess of the Unparalleled Royal Family may frighten others, but it doesn’t scare us. We, the Sky-Stepping Sect, have even destroyed the Mad Blade Sect—what does the Unparalleled Royal Family amount to!”

“Our young master has ordered that all of you must hand over everything you have!”

“Since you refuse to hand over your belongings, we will have to search you ourselves!”

With that, he walked towards Liu Hongmei.

The other four surrounded her, preventing Liu Hongmei from escaping.

Liu Hongmei’s pretty face turned red with anger.

At that moment, Zhu Xuan’s subordinate reached for Liu Hongmei’s chest.

Seeing him reaching for her chest, and particularly targeting the more prominent areas, Liu Hongmei shouted in both shame and anger, “Shameless!” After speaking, she stabbed at the man with her long sword.

Zhu Xuan’s subordinate laughed, “Shameless? Your Highness Princess, you have misspoken. We are all gentlemen here, as is our young master.”

He caught Liu Hongmei’s sharp sword and then, with a jerk, sent the sword flying.

Liu Hongmei was also shaken and stumbled backward, her blood boiling with turmoil.

Although she was at the tenth level of the Martial King realm, she had just broken through to this level and was no match for the opposition. Zhu Xuan’s men were all at the peak of the latter stages of the tenth level of the Martial King realm, each with extraordinary combat strength.

After sending Liu Hongmei’s sharp sword flying, Zhu Xuan’s subordinate continued to reach for her, this time with even more force, he-he sneering. To be honest, he had never grabbed a princess of the Empire before.

Today, he would finally experience how it felt.

He hoped the feeling would be pleasant.

Liu Hongmei’s face was filled with shock and anger. She kept backing away, but her opponent was too fast, leaving her no chance to evade.

Just as Zhu Xuan’s subordinate was about to grab her, suddenly, a thousand strands of Sword Qi burst forth.

A spray of blood erupted.

Zhu Xuan’s subordinate screamed in pain, retreating repeatedly. He looked down in shock to find his right hand had been reduced to a pulp.

The sudden change left Liu Hongmei and the others astonished.

Everyone turned their heads abruptly, only to see that a child had appeared in the courtyard at some unknown time.

“Who are you? We are from the Sky-Stepping Sect!” Zhu Xuan’s subordinate, holding his destroyed right hand, said in disbelief, both shocked and furious, “You dare to oppose the Sky-Stepping Sect, you’re dead!”

Yang Xiaotian couldn’t be bothered to listen anymore and simply opened his right palm. Immediately, the same thousand strands of Sword Qi burst forth again.

This time, the thousand strands of Sword Qi did not just strike one person but spread out, covering the five men like a spider’s web.

Seeing this, Zhu Xuan’s five subordinates turned pale with fright, swinging their long swords to create a dense web of blades.

However, the Sword Qi from the Skywalking Thousand Swords directly penetrated the sword web, then pierced through the heads, eyes, necks, and internal organs of the five men.

After striking, Yang Xiaotian did not linger and continued walking towards the center of the cave.

Only after Yang Xiaotian left did the five tumble to the ground with a loud crash, their bodies riddled with sword holes and their features beyond recognition—even if Zhu Xuan himself arrived, he would not be able to identify them.

Not until the five hit the ground, blood pooling around them, did Liu Hongmei come back to her senses. She stared at the corpses, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief.

After Yang Xiaotian left, he hadn’t gone far when a strong surge of power came from up ahead.

Clearly, people were fighting ahead, and it wasn’t just two of them.

“Zhu Xuan, you dream of monopolizing the Heavenly Tribulation Thunder Water and the Innate Sword Spirit here!” someone shouted angrily.

“If that’s the case, then I will first eliminate you few ignorant fools and then exterminate your Beast God Clan once I get out!”
