The sword energy surged, falling from the dome of heaven, crisscrossing, carrying a mighty force, capable of slicing through heaven and tearing earth.
“Hmph!”
Facing the oncoming Thunder Dragon, the Lord of the Shenxiao Gate showed no fear. The True Qi flowed all around him, bursting into a vibrant aura of Blood Qi. His black robe billowed, and the wide-brimmed hat on his head was lifted by the blast of energy.
He slowly extended both hands, fingers splaying out into a palm shape, and made a strike out of thin air.
A purple-green thunderous glow converged in his palms, accompanied by the sound of thunder, as if a Thunder God had condensed between his palms.
Shenxiao Thunder Palm.
The same Martial Arts Move, when executed by the Lord of the Shenxiao Gate, possessed a might far beyond that displayed by Yu Zhenzi initially.
The endless purple-green thunderous glow, akin to an all-conquering force, descended upon Pei Xuanjing from all sides.
Boom!
The sword light and thunderous glow intertwined and clashed, and violent waves surged outwards.
“Something’s not right.” As he watched the Lord of the Shenxiao Gate being pushed back by his sword, Pei Xuanjing felt an odd sensation stirring within him.
The other’s strength did not seem to be as formidable as he had expected.
Was it because his power level surged after that simulation, greatly surpassing the other?
Pei Xuanjing was unsure.
However, no matter what, he cast these thoughts aside upon seeing the Lord of the Shenxiao Gate in the distance and decisively struck again.
“Lord!”
The remaining few, watching the first round of combat, looked horrified as the Lord of the Shenxiao Gate, whom they had always regarded as invincible, seemed to be in a disadvantageous position.
However, with Qingxu, Bai Xiaosheng, and Yu Zhenzi obstructing them, the four of them couldn’t intervene at all.
“See how you handle this strike!”
Pei Xuanjing clenched his left hand into a palm, and a purple Gang Qi converged in it. He attacked again with the same Shenxiao Thunder Palm.
The countless Gang Qi was channeled towards the Lord of the Shenxiao Gate, who once again struck back.
Crash!
The grand explosion triggered countless shock waves , and except for the Taoist Qingxu and Bai Xiaosheng, the rest of the crowd instinctively dodged it.
Their eyes held a deep sense of shock.
Though they were all First-grade Martial Artists like the pair in the fight, there was a world of difference in their strength levels, which was truly humiliating.
Splat!
The Lord of the Shenxiao Gate spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, and his wide-brimmed hat was sent flying, revealing an ordinary-looking middle-aged man’s face.
However, no one noticed the hint of surprise that flashed across the usually calm face of Bai Xiaosheng.
In his eyes, disbelief was rampant. He couldn’t comprehend how Pei Xuanjing could have become so powerful, far beyond his imagination.
What he didn’t know was, Yu Zhenzi and the others were even more shocked.
That was the Lord whom they had all feared, so why was he so weak, being injured so easily by Pei Xuanjing?
Was Pei Xuanjing too strong, or were we deceived before?
A sense of doubt surfaced in Pei Xuanjing’s mind. While the Shenxiao Lord’s strength far surpassed Yu Zhenzi’s, it was vastly different from what he had anticipated.
However, despite not knowing why the Shenxiao Lord’s strength was as such, Pei Xuanjing had no intention of stopping.
As long as he killed him in front of everyone today, it would be equivalent to the death of the Shenxiao Lord.
Seeing Pei Xuanjing, who was ready to attack again, the Shenxiao Lord’s face paled and he suddenly shouted to the distant: “Are you prepared to watch me die here?” Everyone was stunned by his action.
Could there be someone else? Yu Zhenzi and others speculated.
Someone is coming, Pei Xuanjing sensed it.
Pei Xuanjing, Bai Xiaosheng and Qingxu nodded at each other and simultaneously shifted their gaze to the distance.
“I didn’t expect you to pray to me for help today, quite a rare sight.” a voice, filled with mockery, came from afar.
Undoubtedly, even though the mocked Shenxiao Lord looked upset, he was relieved for at least his safety was guaranteed.
A figure appeared in the distance. The stranger was covering several yards in a single step and arrived before everyone in just a few breaths.
“It’S him…” Yu Zhenzi’s face turned pale.
While the newcomer’s attire was completely different from the Shenxiao Lord’s, he had the same face as the latter as if cloned.
“Who are you!” commanded Pei Xuanjing, his voice heavy.
He could feel the strength of this man in front of him was much stronger than the previous Lord of Shenxiao Gate.
The stranger spoke tranquilly, “I’m Wei Qianli. You can also call me the Lord of Shenxiao Gate.” He introduced himself as Wei Qianli, the Lord of Shenxiao Gate.
A mysterious smile appeared at the corner of Pei Xuanjing’s mouth: “If you are the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, then who is he?”
The self-proclaimed Shenxiao Lord, Wei Qianli, chuckled: “He is my younger brother, Wei Wanli.”
Before Pei Xuanjing could speak, the supposed Lord of Shenxiao Gate, who was now referred to as Wei
Wanli, protested: “Bullshit! I’m the real Lord of Shenxiao Gate.”
Wei Qianli’s expression changed, and he reprimanded: “Shut up.”
Pei Xuanjing was slightly furrowing his brows while looking at their argument. He turned his gaze to Yu Zhenzi, “Who is the real Lord of Shenxiao Gate among these two?”
Yu Zhenzi, too, looked helpless and shook his head, “I am not sure either.”
Unbelievable, after serving under the Lord of Shenxiao Gate for so many years, they had never seen his real face. He had always been veiled in a black cloak and wide-brimmed hat.
Pei Xuanjing then looked towards Bai Xiaosheng, hoping his ally, who claimed he knew everything, could solve his doubt.
Bai Xiaosheng was also initially taken aback by the emergence of two Lords of Shenxiao Gate. Clearly, this was also a bit unexpected for him.
“I can’t believe you’re still alive.” Bai Xiaosheng broke the silence, attracting everyone’s attention.
Hearing this, Pei Xuanjing thought to himself, as expected, Bai Xiaosheng knows about this situation.
Wei Qianli’s expression changed, and suddenly as if he recalled something, his tone turned frigid, “So, it’s you.”
He didn’t recognize Bai Xiaosheng, but he did remember this voice.
In his early days of growth, there was always a mysterious person helping him, but he never knew the person’s identity or appearance.
Of course, it was also the same person who had once deceived him, resulting in a close brush with death. If not for his big luck, he would have been dead by now.
“Never thought you would survive.” Bai Xiaosheng commented nonchalantly.
He softly explained the ins and outs of the matter to Pei Xuanjing and the others.
As he had told Pei Xuanjing earlier, Bai Xiaosheng had been secretly nurturing some of the Shenxiao Sect members to probe into the Secrets and Blessing of the Shenxiao Sect.
The Lord of the Shenxiao gate, who stood before them, was one of them. He was selected for intensive training because of his superior Martial Arts talents.
However, the cultivator later became overly ambitious, intending to murder Bai Xiaosheng. Having realized the cultivator’s plot, Bai Xiaosheng chose to attack first.
Yet Bai Xiaosheng didn’t expect that the man would miraculously survive and live till today.
“My noble teacher, I have been looking for you for so many years. I never thought my teacher, who was unknown to me, is the renowned Bai Xiaosheng from the martial world.
He never expected that the man he had been looking for all along was Bai Xiaosheng.
At this moment, with the combination of old and new grudges, Wei Qianli decisively made the first move without any hesitation..
