Chapter 1233 640: Only Cripple His Limbs (Part 2)
"Ah—!"
Amidst the piercing screams, the two fell into the pill furnace emitting green flames, instantly consumed by Mystic Fire, not even leaving ashes behind.
This scene caught Nie Shan's attention.
When he clearly saw Gu Sheng's face, his expression drastically changed.
"It's you?!"
Qingsheng City Lord's blood energy surged around him, cold gaze fixed on Gu Sheng.
"Shan, do you know this person?"
Nie Shan's forehead started to sweat, his voice somewhat trembling.
"Father, this is the cultivator that I captured yesterday, but unexpectedly..."
"Useless!"
Qingsheng City Lord shouted angrily.
"You can't even keep an eye on a junior in the Earth Palace Realm!"
Nie Shan knelt down with a thud.
"Father, calm your anger! I will take care of him right away!"
Afraid that his father would punish him, he leapt up without waiting for a response, drawing a cold, shining Spirit Sword from his waist.
The sword body was entirely emerald green, faintly flowing with electric light, clearly not ordinary.
"Boy!"
Nie Shan pointed the sword at Gu Sheng, feigning composure.
"You escaped yesterday, but today I'll make sure your soul is scattered!"
Gu Sheng was just unbinding the last cultivator, and upon hearing this, slowly stood up.
Originally intending to force Qingsheng City Lord to take action directly, but first taking down this arrogant Young City Lord is also good.
"Come."
Gu Sheng beckoned with his finger, his tone contemptuously provoking.
When had Nie Shan ever suffered such humiliation?
Immediately, his face flushed red, the electric light on the Spirit Sword surged violently.
"Courting death!"
"Young Lord, be careful!"
The guard reminded.
"This person's physical strength is strange, avoid close combat!"
Where would Nie Shan listen?
Raised in luxury since childhood, relying on his father's prestige to act unscrupulously, when has he ever truly confronted an opponent?
Seeing Gu Sheng's disdain towards him at this moment, his anger clouded his mind.
"Thunder Shocking Sword Technique!"
Nie Shan shouted, the electric light on the Spirit Sword suddenly transformed into a thunder snake, with an ear-piercing snapping sound, it aimed straight at Gu Sheng's face.
This was a Xuan Rank sword technique that Qingsheng City Lord had spent a fortune to buy for him; paired with this thunder attribute Spirit Sword, its power could rival an Earth Rank cultivation technique.
Faced with this fierce strike, Gu Sheng did not retreat but advanced instead.
His right hand formed a pair of fingers, precisely pinching the incoming tip of the sword.
"What?!"
Nie Shan couldn't believe his ultimate move was caught so effortlessly.
What terrified him even more was that, no matter how he stimulated his spiritual power, the sword tip couldn't advance a bit nor retreat.
Gu Sheng's two fingers locked the Spirit Sword tightly.
"Flashy trick."
Gu Sheng snorted, gently shaking his wrist.
"Crack!"
The priceless Spirit Sword broke in response, its front half clinking to the ground.
Nie Shan stood holding the broken sword in a daze.
"Shan, step back!"
Qingsheng City Lord finally couldn't sit still, his Heavenly Palace Realm pressure exploded.
Dust and stones flew across the plaza, several guards nearby were directly blown away.
Gu Sheng felt a massive wave-like pressure but was ready for it.
Leveraging this momentum, he flickered behind Nie Shan, gently placing his right hand on Nie Shan's Heavenly Spirit cover.
"No... don't..."
Nie Shan's whole body stiffened; he could feel a cold force invading from the top of his head, freezing his meridians inch by inch.
"Dare you, junior!"
Qingsheng City Lord's eyes were about to burst, his robe fluttering without wind.
"If you harm a hair on my son's head, I'll make sure you can't live, can't die!"
Gu Sheng's lips curled slightly.
"Is that so?"
His five fingers abruptly tightened!
"Ah—!"
Nie Shan let out an inhuman scream, blood pearls seeped from every pore in his body.
He could clearly feel his cultivation of many decades ebbing away like a retreating tide, the Golden Core in his Dantian swiftly dimmed, then shattered with a "pop".
"My... my cultivation..."
Nie Shan collapsed to the ground, his hands trembling as he reached for his abdomen where a whirlpool of spiritual power should have been but was no longer there.
"No... impossible..."
Gu Sheng kicked him away, speaking coldly.
"I'll spare you your dog life, experience the taste of being a mortal."
"Shan'er!"
Qingsheng City Lord instantly appeared beside Nie Shan, checking him over with a grim expression.
"You... you dare to cripple my son's cultivation!"
The wrath of a Heavenly Palace Realm expert shook the entire square.
The ground cracked, stone pillars collapsed, and those bound maidens screamed in terror.
Qingsheng City Lord gently placed Nie Shan down, slowly rising.
His eyes had turned completely blood-red, surrounded by blood qi materializing into substance.
"I will flay you alive..."
His voice was no longer hoarse, but piercingly sharp, like countless resentful spirits screaming in unison.
"Rip out your heart and sacrifice it for my son's cultivation!"
Nie Shan was his only bloodline, his meticulously cultivated successor, now reduced to a cripple!
"Little bastard!"
"I will make you beg for life, plead for death!"
The aura of the Heavenly Palace Realm exploded, with Qingsheng City Lord at its center, the earth cracking within a hundred feet radius.
Those cultivators rescued by Gu Sheng scattered in fear, yet still tossed away by the shockwave.
Gu Sheng took the brunt, his hair disheveled by the force, staggering back over ten steps before barely standing firm.
Blood seeped from the corner of his mouth, looking utterly miserable.
"Hahaha!"
Nie Shan struggled to crawl up, dragging his longsword as he stumbled towards Gu Sheng.
"Father, spare his life! I want to personally chop off his limbs!"
Outside the City Lord Mansion, the ordinary citizens showed nothing but despair.
Several kind-hearted elders even closed their eyes, unwilling to witness Gu Sheng's tragic death.
Qingsheng City Lord slowly raised his right hand, thick evil qi gathering at his fingertips, transforming into five blood-colored snakes, hissing.
"Don't worry, I'll leave him one breath."
Qingsheng City Lord said icily, as he suddenly clawed at Gu Sheng.
"Nine Yin Soul Searching Hand!"
The five blood snakes enlarged in the wind, instantly transforming into five giant blood-colored pythons, opening their bloody mouths to bite Gu Sheng.
Where the pythons passed, the ground corroded into deep ravines, even the air emitted a "hiss", clearly poisoned.
Facing this fatal strike, Gu Sheng remained unexpectedly calm.
Standing still, letting the wind mess his hair, he curved a cold smirk at his lips.
"Many people have wanted to kill me, you'll have to queue."
"Still talking tough on the brink of death!"
Qingsheng City Lord was furious, his five fingers clenched abruptly.
The five blood pythons instantly merged, forming a blood-colored demonic cloud, pressing down on Gu Sheng.
Before the cloud arrived, its terrifying pressure ground most of the City Lord Mansion into powder, those cultivators trying to flee also swept into the air, their screams piercing.
Nie Shan widened his eyes in excitement, longing to see Gu Sheng swallowed by the cloud.
But in the next moment, his expression froze.
Gu Sheng suddenly straightened his back, sweeping away the aura of misery.
Inside him, the sound of "crackling" rang, the once suppressed aura soaring continuously!
Earth Palace Realm Early Stage... Earth Palace Realm Mid Stage... Earth Palace Realm Late Stage!
"What?!"
Qingsheng City Lord's pupils contracted, for the first time showing an expression of shock.
"You... you hid your cultivation?!"
Nie Shan was so frightened he fell sitting, his long sword clattering down.
"No... impossible... over twenty in Earth Palace Realm Late Stage?"
Even in resource-rich Holy Land, reaching Earth Palace Realm before thirty is rare.
Yet Gu Sheng seemed barely over twenty, already Earth Palace Realm Late Stage, such talent is utterly astounding!
Gu Sheng ignored their astonishment, he stomped the ground fiercely, golden light blooming, instantly dispersing Qingsheng City Lord's oppressive bind.
"Now, it's my turn."
Before the words finished, Gu Sheng had vanished from sight.
Though Qingsheng City Lord was a Heavenly Palace Realm expert, his divine sense immediately locked onto Gu Sheng's position.
He was rushing towards him with an incredible speed!
"Courting death!"
Qingsheng City Lord quickly recovered from shock, his eyes carrying disdain.
"Mere Earth Palace Realm dares to approach?"
With a flip of his hand, a blood-red large knife appeared.
Its blade marked with hideous ghost faces, blood fog lingering at its edge, clearly a spiritual artifact of high rank.
"Father, don't kill him!"
Nie Shan shouted from behind.
"Leave him to me!"
Qingsheng City Lord did not turn.
"Don't worry, I'll only cripple his limbs."
