Chapter 1347: Execution
Qi Xuansu exerted force with his foot, and the mountain-crushing power shattered Dennis’s heart instantly.Yet Dennis had not died. He still clung to his last breath.
Qi Xuansu’s victory was effortless and entirely expected.
His unique lineage meant that even when fighting opponents of the same level, almost no one, aside from Li Changge, could match him. In the past, he often sparred with Zhang Yuelu, but now, Zhang Yuelu no longer fought him because she did not enjoy losing repeatedly.
It was not that Zhang Yuelu was lacking. It was simply that manmade Banished Immortals were inherently stronger than natural-born ones before attaining true immortality. There was no arguing with that.
Although Qi Xuansu was not a battle fanatic who constantly sought breakthroughs on the brink of life and death, he had fought across realms many times along his journey. There was no reason for him to struggle against an opponent of a lower level.
Qi Xuansu withdrew his Great Witch True Form and left Dennis behind. He walked toward Sun Zhongnu and said, “The Holy Court’s reinforcements should be arriving soon. The time you have left depends on how fast they come.”
The faster the reinforcements arrived, the sooner Sun Zhongnu would die.
Although Qi Xuansu had adhered well to the principle of killing cautiously and sparingly in recent years, he had no intention of sparing this traitor.
He did not care what hardships, hidden circumstances, or pitiable aspects lay behind this traitor. He only wanted to know the exact reason for the betrayal so he could return, convene a meeting, address the issue, close the loophole, and prevent such incidents from happening again.
Unknowingly, Qi Xuansu’s way of thinking had changed greatly. He was no longer the wandering Daoist he once was.
Sun Zhongnu’s prosthetic eye could not shed tears, so there was no way for him to show remorse. Still, he asked, “I was only trying to climb upward. What’s wrong with that? The Daoist Order blocked my path, so I had no choice but to turn to the Holy Court. What difference does it make to serve one master or another?”
