Chapter 908: I Am Completely Invincible in the Mortal World (1)
"This was your trump card?" Li Xiaofei spoke calmly, "A mere projection of a Reaper dares to think it can defeat me?"
He was clearly disappointed. He had thought that Xue Bulong, who had been so eager to step forth and boast loudly, truly possessed some earth-shattering final move. But this was it?
He wasn’t afraid of a real Reaper, let alone the projection of a mid-tier, beast-type Reaper? Still, a flicker of interest stirred within him. If Xue Bulong had been able to summon a Reaper’s projection, then it meant the Myriad Saints Immortal Sect indeed had a connection to the Reapers. Finally, a sliver of a clue had surfaced.
Across from him, Xue Bulong’s face had gone deathly pale, his lips trembling uncontrollably. His mind was filled with countless questions and shock.
He wanted to ask, What exactly is a Reaper? But at that moment, he found himself unable to say a single word. Because he knew that he had lost. Even his strongest trump card had been rendered completely useless.
Thinking back on his earlier arrogance and eagerness to fight, he now saw himself for what he truly was. A desperate clown, leaping to his own doom.
Li Xiaofei took a slow step forward and said, "Speak. That technique just now, where did it come from?"
Xue Bulong instinctively stepped back and stammered, "You... That is the Myriad Saints Immortal Sect’s sect-defining divine art. How could I possibly tell you? Hmph. You... you’ve won. I... I admit defeat."
He was afraid now. Li Xiaofei had passed through the ten stages and had killed before. Xue Bulong didn’t want to die. The moment his greatest support had shattered, so too did his courage.
He was the typical kind of immortal sect cultivator. All of his arrogance and bluster had been built on the foundation of bullying the weak while relying on superior strength. But once he realized that he was far weaker than his opponent, all that confidence crumbled into dust.
"I already told you, your earlier answer greatly disappointed me." Li Xiaofei shook his head and said, "So now that you’ve lost, the punishment... is death."
He raised a single finger and pointed.
