Chapter 106: Out of Your League and Dead

Everything just happened way too quickly. Lu Xuan had already totally crippled a National Guardian and killed a great many Baodan Grandmasters and HuaJin Master, as well as even a Martial Arts Legend, in mere seconds.

 That was the result of someone capable of making a lethal weapon out of anything they held in their hands.

 For someone at Lu Xuan’s current level, any hit he threw packed a tremendous amount of power.

 “Hah!” Wang Yang shouted. He no longer looked like his usual grinning self. His expression turned severe, and he looked ferocious. He performed a seal and sent huge numbers of Gu Curse bugs flying at Lu Xuan in the form of a firestorm again.

 Boom!

 Boom!

 Boom!

 Unlike the ones from before, those were capable of exploding while in flight, packing the might of high explosives as they exploded.

 “Die!”

 A ferocious smirk was seen on Wang Yang’s face. That one trick of his had blown away countless formidable enemies back in the day, which enabled him to raze several clans and sects among cultivators in Southern Yunnan.

 Many Martial Arts Legends ran in terror in the face of such an attack, and casualties were high.

 However, a hand emerged from the aftermath of the explosions in the very next instant, clenching firmly on Wang Yang’s neck.

 It was as if his life was in someone else’s hands in an instant, rendering all struggle laughably futile.

 The flames subsided, and a man emerged from it. It was none other than Lu Xuan, and it was apparent that even those exploding bugs did not manage to harm him at all, so much so that the explosions were unable to even singe his clothes.

 To put it precisely, the explosions had not been able to break through his Shield of Vigor.

 In contrast, Wang Yang’s neck was grabbed by Lu Xuan, who then exerted force right away, snapping Wang Yang’s neck and killing him on the spot.

 Lu Xuan dumped the body aside right after he killed the old man, without so much as bothering to take a look at it.

 Tian Han finally realized that terrifying danger was looming over him.

 He finally realized just how wrong he had been about things back then and just how terrifying Lu Xuan actually was.

 According to illustration from that man with sharp features, that was how Lu Xuan killed Qiu Qianying.

 Tian Han did not bother himself with all of that because he, too, could have killed Qiu Qianying without breaking a sweat if he so fancied.

 The difference between a National Guardian and a Martial Arts Legend was undeniable.

 They had been the very reason that the Soul-snatcher Sect had been so renowned in Southern Yunnan.

 It was only then he realized that the man with sharp features had gotten it all wrong at the very beginning.

 He finally realized why Lu Xuan dared to ask why did the Sectmaster did not show up with them before. Lu Xuan asked not because he was feeling lucky that Qiu Zhen hadn’t turned up; he asked because he thought it was a pity that Qiu Zhen was absent.

 Lu Xuan had truly wanted to round them all up and deal with them in one go.

 He thought that anyone who harbored such thoughts was utterly insane. It was the notion of a single person having one whole group surrounded, after all.

 He deemed the notion insane.

 It was only then that he realized that a single person could have a group of people surrounded, and a single person could deal with a group of people single-handedly as well.

 Everything had not been as insane as it appeared to be.

 “Stop him!” Tian Han gave the order almost right away, intending to have the underlings from the sect surround Lu Xuan while he fled.

 However, all of the underlings were utterly stunned by what they just saw. Lu Xuan’s frightening fighting prowess was way beyond their expectations.

 National Guardians were already invincible beings in their eyes, so much so that not even a large group of them would have been able to take down a single National Guardian.

 Yet, a National Guardian had been rendered a paraplegic, and another had their neck snapped within mere seconds.

 Lu Xuan put no effort in pulling any of those feats at all. As such, despite their usual psychological hardiness, all of them were very frightened at that very instant, looking as if they had seen ghosts.

 They were unable to even move at all. The aura emanating from Lu Xuan felt like that of a killer god, pinning all of them down.

 It was just like how they were able to easily intimidate any common folk.

 “You’re in way over your heads,” Lu Xuan said coldly.

 Lu Xuan flashed and disappeared from where he stood. He appeared right before Tian Han.

 It was as if he was a specter, or that he mastered the legendary art of reducing distance.

 Lu Xuan clenched his fist and launched a terrifying sonic boom.

 Boom!

 That punch of his was thrown like a cannonball, blitzing away and hitting Tian Han squarely.

 Boom!

 Tian Han was sent flying right away, like a kite with its thread snapped, swirling in midair before crashing to the ground.

 Pfft!

 Tian Han spat up blood right away. His face looked ashen, and his entire body was trembling. That punch that Lu Xuan had thrown had almost wrecked the entire left side of his body.

 He lost any sense of the entire left of his upper body and was almost snuffed out right there and then.

 If it had not been for him biting down his tongue in the nick of time and bursting through Lu Xuan’s intimidation with sheer force alone, that punch would have probably penetrated his chest right away.

 He stared at Lu Xuan with an utterly terrified expression. That young man wore only a t-shirt and a pair of jeans, yet he looked like he was some terrifying devil that had just emerged from hell.

 “Futile resistance, I see,” Lu Xuan said plainly, sporting a smirk that looked like he had just pulled a prank.

 “I heard that you’ve dabbled in every form of evil out there in Southeast Asia. Smuggling firearms and drugs, human trafficking, mass murder, and the likes. Have you ever thought of seeing yourself like this one day?”

 “Just get on with it. I’ve f*cked the prettiest of chicks and drank the strongest of booze in this life. I’ve no regrets, but I sure as hell am gonna knock your teeth out before I kick the bucket!” Tian Han declared out of the last scrap of dignity he had.

 It seemed as if he made use of some kind of secret art in that very instant, pouncing straight for Lu Xuan while holding a grenade in his hand, intending to die alongside Lu Xuan.

 “Thinking of dragging me to hell with you, eh?” Lu Xuan smirked and kicked out, sending Tian Han flying yet again.

 Boom!

 Tian Han was blown to bits right there and then, still in the air.

 National Guardians were by no means immortal. It was just that they were protected by very formidable Shields of Vigor, which prevented their bodies from being easily harmed.

 Yet another National Guardian died by Lu Xuan’s hand.

 At that moment, that Thai fighter, who was watching it all as he laid immobile at the side, felt almost as if he was going to pee his pants. He hit the ground with his hands and leaped up. Despite his legs being totally out of commission due to his broken spine, he still had his arms to spare.

 National Guardians had frighteningly high levels of life force. As such, he still thought of running away out of a sense of self-preservation alone, despite his current state.

 However, Lu Xuan caught up with him before he was able to run. Lu Xuan materialized a long blade out of his Spiritual Qi and swiped at that Thai fighter.

 The Thai fighter shrieked as he was chopped into half, dying on the spot.

 While it looked as if it had been a long and hard fight, the entire battle did not actually take long. It was only then that those fighters from the Soul-snatcher Sect thought of running away.

 But then again, that window was long over for them. Lu Xuan went to them and snuffed them out one by one.
