Chapter 5074 — Even His Brains Are Useless
The Blossom Guardian · Page 2 of 3
"He's that primordial-spirit cultivator! Sun Baimei and the others died at his hands!" At that moment Fei Yangnian, who had been keeping watch outside, rushed in at the commotion and was stunned by the scene.
"Primordial-spirit cultivator?!" This time it was not only Xue Jianming who froze—Qiu Lingshan and the others did as well. How on earth had Wei Zhao turned into a primordial-spirit cultivator?
"Fei Yangnian, you really aren't afraid of death, are you? Last time I let you off out of the goodness of my heart, and now you dare come back?" Wei Zhao said with a sidelong glance.
Fei Yangnian nearly wet himself. If Xue Jianming had not been present, he would probably have dropped to his knees in terror on the spot. He babbled hastily, "Senior, please don't misunderstand—it wasn't my idea to come. It was Senior Brother Xue—"
"What did you say!" Xue Jianming flew into a rage at this, itching to cripple the spineless Fei Yangnian on the spot. He jabbed a finger at Wei Zhao and snorted coldly, "Just now I was merely careless and underestimated my enemy. You don't actually think a mere secular-world primordial spirit could truly be a match for me, Xue Jianming, do you?"
"Is that so? I also happen to think you're laughably weak—a disgrace to the Tai Gu Alliance. So are you ready now, or are you still underestimating your enemy?" Wei Zhao eyed him askance with an ambiguous smile.
"Hmph. Once I get serious, you're nothing but an ant. I am the foremost of the Tai Gu Alliance's younger generation—what right do you have to be so arrogant before me?" Xue Jianming sneered.
"Fine. I'll take that as you being ready." Wei Zhao smiled strangely, and in the next instant suddenly appeared before Xue Jianming, raising his hand for yet another slap.
Xue Jianming was aghast. With his strength, he had not even been able to see clearly how Wei Zhao had charged over. By the time he reacted, Wei Zhao's palm had already landed on his face—there was no chance to dodge at all. Bang! He dropped flat on the spot once more.
"The first time you thought the force was too weak. The second time you said you weren't ready. What excuse do you want to use for the third?" Wei Zhao regarded him leisurely.
Qiu Lingshan and the others burst out laughing at the sight, doubling over and rocking back and forth. Just moments ago, Xue Jianming had oppressed so many of them that they could scarcely breathe—and now, the instant Wei Zhao returned, the situation had turned like this. It was deeply satisfying!
It took Xue Jianming another long while to clamber painfully up from the floor. Three slaps in a row had all landed on the right side; by now his right cheek was swollen up hugely, and with that pig's-head look, probably even his own mother wouldn't recognize him.
"You... just who are you..." If Xue Jianming still could not grasp by now that he had run into a ruthless man, he would truly be a fool. The first two times he could disguise it as carelessness and underestimation, but the third time was beyond excuse.
He had clearly been dodging with all his might, yet a profound and inexplicable true qi had suddenly slammed him to the ground, forcibly suppressing even the true qi within his body into chaos. The crucial point was—he had vaguely heard a low, deep dragon's roar!
The result left him utterly terrified. His opponent's aura marked him as Foundation Establishment Great Perfection as well, and he himself was plainly the Tai Gu Alliance's strongest Foundation Establishment Great Perfection expert—yet before this man he had not the slightest power to fight back. Where on earth had this ruthless character sprung from? It couldn't possibly really be the secular world, could it?
