Chapter 1366: How to Deal With It
This was the first time Huangfu Ji had seen Qi Xuansu fight at full strength. Before this, he had only heard about the young man’s abilities, so he could only make rough estimates on how capable Qi Xuansu truly was.According to official Daoist statements, Qi Xuansu was at the Zaohua stage and carried an immortal object that theoretically allowed him to exert Pseudo-Immortal strength.
Even so, Qi Xuansu had no intention of engaging Hun Chowen in a fair fight. Instead, he chose to strike first with a surprise attack, ensuring there would be no room for error.
Qi Xuansu understood this clearly. After merging with Madam Wu, he was theoretically stronger than Hun Chowen. However, he no longer had the Scripture of Zuriel’s augmented power, so he was no longer at peak Pseudo-Immortal strength. He would soon enter a brief weakened state after its effects faded.
At best, Qi Xuansu was now an ordinary Pseudo-Immortal, roughly equal to Hun Chowen. Even if he could win, capturing or killing Hun Chowen would be difficult. Thus, a surprise attack was necessary.
Since this was not a duel, Qi Xuansu did not care about fairness and only wanted to capture the traitor.
Qi Xuansu walked up to Hun Chowen, first glancing in the direction where Hun Ahau stood before turning his gaze back to Hun Chowen.
With his Manly Immortal True Form shattered and many acupoints destroyed, Hun Chowen was now in worse condition than Huangfu Ji.
Hun Chowen was supporting himself on one knee, his body mangled beyond recognition. Even his eyeballs had fallen from their sockets, making it impossible to discern his expression.
Huangfu Ji stepped forward as well. “Chowen, is it worth ending up like this for a woman who was never yours to begin with?”
Hun Chowen did not respond to Huangfu Ji. Instead, he turned his hollow eye sockets toward Qi Xuansu, his voice hoarse and tortured. “Sage Qi, I’ve heard that the reason you won your beloved’s heart was because of that shocking leap at Kunlun Pass. You risked your life without hesitation, so tell me...was it worth it?”
Qi Xuansu had not expected his famed leap to have spread even to the New Continent. He paused for a moment before replying, “You get what you strive for.”
