Six Realms Immortal Emperor

Xu Jingtian smiled faintly. With his current cultivation level, he could see through Jin Chongguang's strength, which was actually slightly lower than his own, so of course he wasn't afraid of him. Therefore, without even glancing at Jin Chongguang, he said calmly, "A life-or-death duel within Feiye Gorge is a matter of mutual consent; outsiders are not allowed to interfere. Whether or not to kill him is up to me!"

"You dare?" Jin Chongguang was extremely angry.

How dare an outer disciple disregard him? He must be tired of living!

"Why wouldn't I dare!" Xu Jingtian exerted his strength again, using half of his power.

Qu Feixiong's face contorted in pain. At this moment, he had completely lost his initial arrogance. His lips trembled uncontrollably, and his body shook violently. His eyes were fixed on Xu Jingtian. He was truly terrified beyond measure. He finally realized that this man could not be intimidated by words alone. Just looking into those eyes filled him with a chilling fear that seeped into his very bones.

"You shouldn't have attacked Dongfang Sixing, and you shouldn't have ambushed my Brother Lu!" Xu Jingtian said coldly. His voice was very calm and exuded the arrogance of a king, the confidence of a victor.

Dongfang Sixing? A hint of resentment flashed in Qu Feixiong's eyes as he scanned the crowd, but he couldn't find Dongfang Sixing anywhere.

"I...I'm so sorry, I was blind to your greatness. I beg you, Senior Brother Xu, to have mercy on me and spare my life." Qu Feixiong completely abandoned his dignity and actually called Xu Jingtian "Senior Brother," pleading, "Please, let me go!"

If he could stand up now, he would immediately kneel down and kowtow to Xu Jingtian. When his life was threatened, he disregarded everything and chose to give up everything, including his pride and dignity.

Xu Jingtian's expression remained cold and stern. Recalling his performance during the wilderness trial, he found Qu Feixiong's bullying and cowardice disgusting. If he lost today, would Qu Feixiong let him go? Definitely not!

"Tsk tsk, I never thought Qu Feixiong would be so useless!"

"Yeah, so he was just pretending to be aloof. He's actually so cowardly and afraid of death. What a disgrace!" the onlookers began to whisper.

Some people were discussing Xu Jingtian: "This Xu Jingtian is really amazing; he's not even afraid of inner disciples!"

Jin Chongguang, finally losing face, took a few steps forward and said to Xu Jingtian, word by word, "If you dare to kill him, I will kill you!"

"Is that so!" Xu Jingtian's lips curled into a cold smile. He was determined to kill Qu Feixiong today; this was a decision he had made during his wilderness training.

Just as Jin Chongguang was momentarily stunned, Xu Jingtian suddenly struck out with a palm. The speed was so fast that Jin Chongguang didn't even have time to react before his palm was already imprinted on Qu Feixiong's back.

"Bang!"

Upon being struck by Xu Jingtian's palm, Qu Feixiong immediately felt his blood surging, his vision blurring, and a sharp pain shooting through his abdomen. Xu Jingtian's seemingly simple palm strike not only pierced through his protective inner energy but also caused considerable damage to his internal organs.

"Ah!" Qu Feixiong screamed in agony, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His hands fell limply, his legs curled up, and he collapsed weakly to the ground.

"You're asking for death!" Jin Chongguang roared, and a flying sword shot towards Xu Jingtian like an arrow.

Xu Jingtian remained remarkably calm. Under Jin Chongguang's hostile gaze, he stared at the approaching flying sword, then picked up Qu Feixiong from the ground and tossed him forward.

"Ah!" Poor Qu Feixiong let out a deafening scream as the sharp flying sword pierced his chest, splitting his body in two. He fell to the ground like a dead dog, utterly dead.

"Oh no, Xu Jingtian is too stubborn!"

"Hmph, so arrogant! He's in big trouble now. Inner disciples aren't to be trifled with!"

"Hmm, this is going to be interesting!"

The crowd cheered again, feeling that their trip to Feiye Gorge had been very enjoyable and worthwhile.

Staring at Qu Feixiong's unseeing death, Jin Chongguang's face turned extremely ugly. He pointed his flying sword at Xu Jingtian, who was several feet away, and coldly said, "Xu Jingtian, aren't you afraid I'll kill you?"

"Senior Brother Jin, if you're not afraid of being punished according to the sect rules, feel free to take action. I'm ready to fight anytime!" Xu Jingtian was certainly not afraid of Jin Chongguang, but in front of so many disciples, he couldn't do anything to Jin Chongguang.

The Brahma Sect's rules stipulate that a duel within Feiye Gorge cannot end unless one party dies; no one has the right to interfere midway, and violators will be severely punished according to the sect's rules. Jin Chongguang certainly wouldn't take that risk for Qu Feixiong.

"Hmph, you got lucky this time. Don't let me run into you again!" Jin Chongguang pondered for a moment, then reluctantly withdrew his flying sword and turned to leave angrily.

The disciples watching all showed expressions of surprise. This Xu Jingtian was too arrogant. He even dared to offend an inner disciple. Was he getting a little too excited? Although he defeated Qu Feixiong with his strength, he was definitely no match for an inner disciple.

In their eyes, Xu Jingtian had offended the inner disciples and his death was only a matter of time. Therefore, fearing that they would offend Jin Chongguang, they dared not linger here and dispersed one after another.

Xu Jingtian looked carefully into the crowd, but shook his head in disappointment. None of the people he was looking for had come.

Gu Tianxing, Huang Shaoyuan, and the others didn't come, possibly because they were afraid of Qu Feixiong causing them trouble later. But Lu Yikuang didn't come either, which Xu Jingtian couldn't understand.

"Let's go!" After everyone dispersed, Dongfang Sixing looked around to make sure no one else was there before steeling himself and stepping forward, saying with a hint of reproach, "How dare you offend an inner disciple?"

If he hadn't come here with Xu Jingtian, he would have quietly left with the others long ago. Now that Daoist Cen Yang is gone, he wouldn't risk offending the inner disciples and ruining his promising future for Xu Jingtian's sake.

"Hmph!" Xu Jingtian stared at Qu Feixiong's corpse and said in a deep voice, "Didn't you recognize him? This is the gray-clad man who intercepted us halfway. He's the one who killed Dongfang Sile!"

"Oh, so he's our enemy. I really didn't realize." Dongfang Sixing was immediately embarrassed and said somewhat awkwardly, "But now that we are disciples of the Brahma Sect, we shouldn't dwell on worldly grudges. I heard that his master is a true disciple, so we'd better find an opportunity to get on good terms with that Senior Brother Jin. That way, we can have a better foothold in the Brahma Sect in the future."

"What did you say? Get on good terms with him?" Xu Jingtian glared angrily at Dongfang Sixing, then fell silent.

"Fine, I'll do whatever you say." Dongfang Sixing pouted and said somewhat dejectedly.

"Let's go!" Xu Jingtian was too lazy to argue with him.

He was seriously considering the situation. Jin Chongguang had almost killed him and Dongfang Siyu by using him. Judging from today's events, Qu Feixiong's relationship with Jin Chongguang was far from ordinary. Since Qu Feixiong was his enemy, Jin Chongguang was undoubtedly involved. What bigger schemes Jin Chongguang might have up his sleeve to deal with him next remained unknown. It seemed he would have to be extremely cautious in the sect from now on.
