The villain is utterly immoral; with a dragon charging right in his face, how could he possibly lose

Chapter 144 Xiao Huo Dies, Lin Xuan is Deceived by a Pair of Deeply Affectionate Eyes

"Now, we can fight to the death."

With Fu Youcai gone, Gu Qing had no more worries, and Lin Xuan would be all alone in the Star God Temple from now on.

"it is good!"

Xiao Huo smiled faintly, but there was no smile in his eyes, and the killing intent around him was almost solidifying.

Fu Youcai had just given him sacred artifacts and medicines, but Gu Qing wiped out his entire clan and destroyed his cultivation.

With new grudges and old hatreds combined, today either Gu Qing dies or he perishes.

The two stepped into the boundless starry sky. Xiao Huo immediately summoned his supreme defensive artifact, a large cauldron suspended above his head, with raging flames burning inside.

The blazing firelight burned the void, like a small sun illuminating the boundless starry sky.

"Ah!"

Seeing this, Gu Qing sneered, already knowing exactly what Xiao Huo was thinking.

As expected of the protagonist, he thought he was invincible among his peers, and that his victory over Lin Feng was merely a sneak attack and opportunistic trickery.

Since the protagonist is unable to recognize reality, let's give Lin Xuan and his apprentice a shock.

It's time to let the world witness the power of the Zhou Tian Star Divine Body.

Gu Qing stopped hiding it. After all, Lin Xuan wasn't stupid. After losing two disciples in succession, he would definitely see something was wrong.

In any case, Lin Xuan was already isolated and helpless in the Star God Temple.

As for the remaining disciples, wouldn't it be easy for him to kill them?

Thinking this, Gu Qing took a step forward, and the boundless starry sky roared, endless starlight gathered, and all kinds of laws empowered him.

Gu Qing was like a god who ruled the universe. With a single finger, he unleashed the Star Shattering Finger, which gathered the power of countless stars.

The entire void was enveloped by his finger.

"As expected, they are very strong..."

Feeling the earth-shattering power of the Star-Shattering Finger, Xiao Huo's expression changed slightly.

He naturally knew that Gu Qing could not have killed Lin Feng by simply launching a sneak attack. Without some strength, how could he possibly launch a sneak attack on a genius of the same realm?

The sneak attack only gave Gu Qing the upper hand.

Ultimately, it comes down to hard power.

Therefore, he attached unprecedented importance to Gu Qing, immediately summoning a defensive magic weapon and locking his divine sense onto Gu Qing, responding to all changes with unwavering resolve.

However, the moment Xiao Huo saw the Shattering Star Finger, he realized that he had underestimated Gu Qing.

The Shattering Star Finger made him feel an unprecedented crisis, even more terrifying than facing a seventh-level Venerable Realm genius.

The Zhou Tian Star Divine Body truly lives up to its name and is worthy of being called the Supreme Divine Body.

The thought flashed through his mind, and Xiao Huo summoned a sacred artifact, the Blazing Fire Sword.

This is the embryo of a divine artifact. After being refined by Lin Xuan, its power is far greater than that of ordinary sacred artifacts.

"A wildfire spreads from Mars..."

Xiao Huo unleashed his ultimate technique, a boundless sea of ​​fire that burned the endless starry sky, the intense heat seemingly incinerating the very space itself into nothingness.

Xiao Huo, like a god who controls the Great Dao of Fire, unleashed a terrifying sword intent from his longsword, engulfing an endless sea of ​​fire as he charged toward Shattering Star Finger.

boom!

Xiao Huo and his sword were blasted away by a single finger, his body exploded, blood gushing out and splattering across the starry sky. Every drop of blood contained terrifying power, like a small blazing sun.

"Truly worthy of being the strongest Celestial Constellation Divine Body in history..."

The elders, watching from afar, could not hide their excitement.

Gu Qingcai had only been in the Star God Palace for a few years when he broke through to the fourth level of the Venerable Realm, a speed that surpassed all previous generations of Zhou Tian Star God Bodies.

If they hadn't seen it with their own eyes, they would never have believed that Gu Qing had achieved the supreme status of humanity at such a young age.

What's even more terrifying is that Gu Qing's combat power is simply unbelievably strong.

They could see that Xiao Huo was by no means weak and was absolutely worthy of being called a prodigy.

In particular, the "Wildfire from the Stars" divine power, when enhanced by a sacred artifact, can kill even the peak Supreme Realm cultivator.

However, he was blasted away by Gu Qing with a single finger, without even having to use his magic weapon.

If Gu Qing were to use his magic weapon, Xiao Huo would be dead.

"puff!"

Xiao Huo coughed up a mouthful of blood and hurriedly took more than a dozen spirit pills and three drops of Three Lights Divine Water. He then used his internal energy to refine the remaining Star Shattering Power and expel it from his body.

However, the power of the Shattered Star raged violently, as if it had become one with his body, and could not be eliminated in a short time.

"Too strong, I'm no match for him..." This thought popped into Xiao Huo's mind, but he refused to believe it.

How could he not be a match for a genius of the same level?

You should know that along his journey, none of those so-called geniuses and prodigies of all time were a match for him.

He even killed someone of a higher level.

Xiao Huo was confident that he was invincible at his level, so how could he possibly lose to Gu Qing, who was at the same level?

However, the lingering Star Shattering Power within his body forced him to accept this cruel reality.

Xiao Huo looked up at Gu Qing, who was dressed in black with his hair flying. He stood on the Starry Road, looking like a god or a demon. An invincible aura rushed over him, and the overwhelming pressure made Xiao Huo's breath catch in his throat, and a sense of fear welled up in his heart.

This is a life-or-death battle.

Losing will mean death.

Thinking of this, Xiao Huo unhesitatingly used the All-Word Secret Technique.

That's right, Lin Xuan also possesses nine secrets that have spread throughout the myriad realms.

Without the Nine Secrets system protagonist, it's not really a protagonist at all.

Just like being able to dominate for all time, if the protagonist doesn't have the ability to dominate for all time, is he still a fantasy protagonist?

"Die!"

Gu Qing wielded the Taiyin Divine Fist in his left hand and the Taiyang Divine Fist in his right, the two great forces of extreme Yin and extreme Yang converging to unleash a destructive force of Yin and Yang.

"Hi~"

The fear of death spread from the bottom of his heart. Xiao Huo gasped and, without any further concealment, summoned a damaged divine artifact for defense.

The Supreme Bone within his body erupted with the sword intent of the Blazing Fire, burning the heavens and tearing through the void with unparalleled sword intent.

boom!

The broken divine artifact, the cauldron, withstood the Yin-Yang Divine Fist, but Xiao Huo was also blasted away by the powerful force of the Yin-Yang Divine Fist.

Even the most powerful artifacts are only effective if used by the right person, especially a damaged one.

Xiao Huo can only unleash one ten-thousandth of the divine artifact's power at most.

"Wait, I give up."

Seeing that Gu Qing was about to make another move, Xiao Huo forced down the mouthful of blood that had risen to his throat and said urgently.

He used all his trump cards, but was severely injured by Gu Qing's two punches, his secret technique was interrupted, and his cultivation level dropped.

Moreover, he could only use the divine cauldron once, and he was powerless to use it a second time.

Under these circumstances, Xiao Huo knew very well that he could no longer withstand Gu Qing's attack.

"Do you think this life-or-death battle is child's play? You think you can just fight whenever you want and admit defeat whenever you want?"

Gu Qing sneered, but his movements did not stop at all. He unleashed the Taiyin Divine Fist, and a bright moon hung in the sky, freezing the Milky Way.

Xiao Huo felt a chill run down his spine and immediately burned his essence blood, forcibly unleashing the "Wildfire of the Separating Stars" divine power.

Having lost half his life, Gu Qing threw another punch, also the Taiyin Divine Fist.

Xiao Huo coughed up blood and cried out to Lin Xuan, "Master, save me..."

Lin Xuan clenched his fists, his icy eyes filled with chilling killing intent.

If looks could kill, Gu Qing would have been killed a thousand times over.

He finally realized that Gu Qing had been hiding his true abilities.

Gu Qingyuan was more powerful than he had imagined.

But he couldn't accept it. His disciple was the chosen one, an invincible chosen one. How could he have been defeated?

Could Gu Qing also be a chosen one?

Lin Xuan asked the system, but the answer was still the same: no information about Gu Qing could be detected, which made Lin Xuan's heart sink.

Even the system can't detect it, so what exactly is Gu Qing's background?

"Master..."

Seeing that Lin Xuan had no intention of making a move, Xiao Huo's mind went blank for a moment.

Why didn't his domineering and protective master save him?

Was he also abandoned by Lin Xuan like Fu Youcai?

No, it's impossible.

Xiao Huo shook his head frantically.

He could not be abandoned by Lin Xuan.

After all, Lin Xuan was his savior. It was Lin Xuan who guided him, a useless person who couldn't cultivate, onto the path of cultivation.

Lin Xuan gave him a new life, imparted to him unparalleled skills, and bestowed upon him countless treasures.

How could Lin Xuan possibly abandon him for life or death when he treated him like his own son?

Lin Xuan really couldn't just ignore him.

But Lin Xuan was powerless at this moment, because he was locked onto by Jiang Yu's divine sense.

If he dares to make a single move, he will face a thunderous strike from Jiang Yu.

Lin Xuan was confident that he could escape the pursuit of the Star God Temple.

However, he was not confident that he could escape with the remaining disciples.

Lin Xuan's forehead veins bulged, his killing intent soaring, as he tried to put pressure on Gu Qing and force her to give up killing Xiao Huo.

Gu Qing met his gaze and saw that Lin Xuan dared not make a move and was still holding back. Gu Qing sneered, making no attempt to hide his sarcasm.

He then killed Xiao Huo with a single punch.

Another Supreme Bone... Gu Qing put the Supreme Bone into the jade box, set it with a restriction, and then slowly collected all of Xiao Huo's treasures.

This Blazing Fire Sword is a real treasure; it's made of Blazing Fire Immortal Gold and has unlimited potential.

Gu Qing plans to integrate the Li Huo Sword into the sunglasses to enhance its power and potential.

"Good good!"

Upon seeing this, the elders' excitement was palpable.

Gu Qing is too strong; his physical body is unparalleled.

With the talent Gu Qing has shown so far, even if he ascends to the Immortal Realm, he will still be a unique and outstanding individual.

Now, with the addition of the Supreme Bone, Gu Qing will only become more powerful.

Their lineage will surely produce another unparalleled powerhouse, ensuring the long-lasting prosperity of their lineage.

"Jiang Yu, why?" Why did you aid and abet the wicked?

Watching his disciple being killed, Lin Xuan roared, his expression one of utter despair and agony.

Jiang Yu not only refused to help him, but also helped Gu Qing, the culprit.

Jiang Yu's betrayal was like a knife to his heart.

Jiang Yu: ……

Speechless.

silence.

Her only attitude towards Lin Xuan was to elegantly ignore him.

After all, Lin Xuan seemed unable to understand human speech, living in his own thoughts.

Jiang Yu had said what she needed to say. Whether Lin Xuan listened or not was his business. Jiang Yu had no interest in arguing with a fanatical madman.

However, Jiang Yu's detached and aloof demeanor was perceived by Lin Xuan as cold-heartedness.

"Fine, fine, since you're heartless, then don't blame me for being ruthless."

Lin Xuan's eyes were icy cold as he turned and left, vowing in his heart to destroy the Star God Palace and make Jiang Yu pay the price.

He'll make Jiang Yu regret it. He ignores him now, but in the future, Jiang Yu will be able to reach him.

Lin Xuan decided to recruit disciples more widely, no longer limiting himself to those chosen by destiny. There were so many geniuses in the Star God Palace, and there were plenty of people who met the system's criteria for accepting disciples.

Although the reward is small, even a mosquito's leg is meat.

He wants to use the system to become stronger quickly.

"Pshaw! Fool."

Gu Qing sneered.

Even a fool could guess that Lin Xuan wanted to use the system to become stronger and vow to take revenge on everyone.

But with him around, Lin Xuan can forget about stirring up any trouble in the Star God Temple.

If Lin Xuan were even slightly smarter, he would have realized that the Starry Sky Temple was not his birthplace, but rather a trap for him.

However, Lin Xuan is the chosen one. Protagonists all have a common trait: they like to survive in the cracks, snatch chestnuts from the fire, and turn adversity into opportunity.

Lin Xuan's idea of ​​developing his power stealthily within the Star God Temple is wishful thinking.

Thinking of this, Gu Qing sent a message to Chu Yao and Luo Li, and then followed Jiang Yu back to Starlight Peak.

Gu Qing asked curiously, "Palace Master, did you ever have feelings for Lin Xuan?"

Throughout the entire process, Lin Xuan maintained an appearance as if he had been abandoned by Jiang Yu.

This made Gu Qing wonder if Jiang Yu was a heartless and scumbag woman.

"Boom!"

Jiang Yu angrily tapped Gu Qing on the forehead and cursed, "You heartless little bastard."

She helped Gu Qing so much, yet Gu Qing didn't believe her. She'd rather die of anger.

Gu Qing touched his forehead and said dejectedly, "Palace Master, it's not that I don't believe you, but Lin Xuan is really convinced that you have feelings for him. I just want to find out the truth. If not, I want to prove your innocence."

"In my heart, the Palace Master is a holy goddess, how can she be tarnished by Lin Xuan?"

"Grumpy."

Gu Qing's frank words instantly pleased Jiang Yu, after all, no woman dislikes hearing Gu Qing's words.

"There's really nothing between us. We've always just been ordinary fellow disciples. Even Lin Xuan mistakenly thought he saved me, but that was just wishful thinking on his part."

"Oh? Tell me more."

Gu Qing's curiosity was piqued.

"Back then, when we went on our training together, my cultivation was higher than his, and I could have easily dealt with that demonic beast. But Lin Xuan stepped forward and wouldn't let me make a move..."

Jiang Yu was also somewhat annoyed when she talked about this.

She had specifically sought out that demonic beast to appease her master, but Lin Xuan not only stole it from her, but also made her remember his life-saving grace. It was utterly ridiculous.

If it weren't for seeing Lin Xuan severely injured by the demonic beast, she would have wanted to stab him with her sword.

After that incident, she had no further contact with Lin Xuan.

There's really no need to befriend people who lack self-awareness.

"Then how could he..."

Gu Qing understood immediately; he was all too familiar with the trope of the protagonist stepping in to win the female lead's favor.

But if Jiang Yu wasn't interested in Lin Xuan, then why has Lin Xuan misunderstood her until now?

"I am not sure as well."

Jiang Yu was also puzzled.

What exactly did she do to make Lin Xuan have the illusion that she liked him?

"Is it……"

Gu Qing looked into her tender, beautiful eyes, lost in thought.

Jiang Yu's eyes were indescribably beautiful; they were the most beautiful eyes he had ever seen.

As if possessing magic, looking into her eyes involuntarily calms the mind, relaxes the body and soul, and immerses one in boundless tenderness.

In short, Jiang Yu's eyes look at dogs with deep affection.

That bastard Lin Xuan must have been deceived by Jiang Yu's eyes and inevitably developed a misconception.

After figuring out the reason, Gu Qing's lips twitched. The protagonist was really confident, thinking that the world revolved around him and that all the peerless goddesses liked him.

"What mischief are you plotting now?"

Jiang Yu felt uncomfortable under Gu Qing's direct and intense gaze, and her delicate earlobes turned slightly red.

She changed the subject with a reproachful expression.

"nothing."

Gu Qing, oblivious to her odd behavior, had a sudden thought and gave a pleading smile. "Palace Master, could you help me forge a magical artifact?"

Jiang Yu rolled her eyes, exuding charm, and said, "Speak."

Gu Qing immediately took out sunglasses and the Li Huo sword, stuffed them into her hands, and left with the words, "Palace Master, you decide what to do. I'm going into seclusion." Then he ran off in a flash.

Jiang Yu: ……

Are you born in the Year of the Monkey?

That pole climber is incredibly skilled.

She didn't say anything before she disappeared.

Jiang Yu made up her mind that in the future, if she encountered a similar situation, she would definitely state her conditions first.

"You cunning boy..." Jiang Yu's gentle eyes revealed a mischievous smile.

Did you think you could get her for free this way?

Naive.
