Chapter 536: Psychological Impact
Wu Youdao didn’t believe a word of Qin Sang’s nonsense. Enraged, he roared, "You skulking, treacherous rat! You dared trespass into my sect’s territory, and in front of me, no less, killed one of our disciples. Today, I will see you dead!"
Qin Sang let out a low chuckle. "If it were you in my shoes, would you really have surrendered without a fight? Besides, Wen Yanjie and I already had an old grudge. I simply hadn’t had the time to deal with him before. If you investigate him when you return, you’ll learn what kind of person he truly was. I’ve done you a favor by cleaning your house and saving your Qingyang Sect the trouble of making enemies you can’t afford."
"You dare twist logic to justify your crime!"
Wu Youdao flew into a furious rage, though inwardly, a trace of doubt crept into his heart.
Qin Sang had spoken Wen Yanjie’s name outright, and his tone didn’t sound the least bit fabricated.
Did they truly have a prior connection?
Core Formation cultivators and Foundation Building disciples live in entirely different worlds. Unless Wen Yanjie had been blindly reckless and provoked someone he shouldn’t have, why would a Golden Core expert ever bother to notice him?
Even as the thought crossed his mind, Wu Youdao showed no sign of slowing his assault—on the contrary, his attacks grew fiercer.
Qin Sang snorted coldly. "It seems there's no avoiding a fight with you today, Daoist Wu. Let’s see what capabilities you truly possess, whether you have what it takes to stop me."
Wu Youdao wasn’t an old, seasoned Golden Core cultivator. The reason he wielded two astras was because he had benefited from the legacy left behind by predecessors of the Demonic Qingyang Sect. Many cultivators who had formed their core around the same time were still painstakingly gathering materials to forge their life-bound astras.
After such an extended clash, Qin Sang had mostly figured out the capabilities of Wu Youdao’s life-bound astra. Unless Wu Youdao had some hidden technique yet to reveal, Qin Sang was confident he wouldn’t be overpowered before his true essence ran out.
In the process, he had even secretly picked up several fire-controlling techniques from Wu Youdao’s methods.
