Chapter 1045: Chapter 658: The Head of the Sect
In a rather disheveled state, a figure flew out from a secret chamber beneath the palace and landed in front of a group of Ning Yuan Sect disciples, looking up at Lu Qing with uncertain surprise.
“Sect Master!”
All the Ning Yuan Sect disciples who had originally been astonished by the imnse power of Lu Qing’s sword were revitalized upon seeing that person.
It was as if as long as the Sect Master was present, they had a backbone to rely on.
“Are you Ning Jizi?”
Lu Qing looked coldly at that figure.
It was a middle-aged man dressed in a purple robe, whose aura was harmonious, having reached the realm of Golden Core Ninth Turn Perfection.
However, although he’d heard the Ning Yuan Sect disciples’ address, to avoid confusion, Lu Qing activated Superpower to examine him.
“I am Ning Jizi, Sect Master of the Ning Yuan Sect. I’m not sure what matters you have with , as we seem unfamiliar with each other.”
Ning Jizi looked seriously at Lu Qing, filled with apprehension.
The sword strike from earlier by Lu Qing was truly terrifying.
If he hadn’t dodged at the critical mont, he probably would have been seriously injured by now.
Even now, he still felt a chill through his body, as if Sword Qi had invaded.
At this mont, notes were already appearing in Lu Qing’s vision.
After reading these notes, his intent to kill grew stronger.
“It doesn’t matter whether you know or not. Do you recognize him?”
Taking a head from a Storage Bag, he threw it down.
The head landed precisely in front of Ning Jizi, rolling several tis, with its face toward him, bearing a horrified expression as if it had endured unimaginable torture before death.
Ning Jizi saw the face of the head and involuntarily changed his expression.
But before he could say anything, a disciple behind him exclaid: “Brother Duan, has he gone missing?”
“Didn’t Brother Duan perish in the Flaming Secret Realm thirty years ago?”
The other disciples, seeing the head clearly, were similarly shocked.
Even the few Golden Core late-stage elders showed surprise.
It turns out Lu Qing had thrown out the head of their long-missing True Disciple, Duan Xin.
“It seems you all recognize this person.” Lu Qing said coldly.
“Indeed, the likeness of this head does resemble our Ning Yuan Sect’s True Disciple who went missing years ago. I’m not sure how you obtained this head; did this inadequate disciple not die as presud but rather fell at your hands?”
Ning Jizi said slowly.
As soon as these words were spoken, the Ning Yuan Sect disciples behind him glared at Lu Qing with hostility.
This strange Ghost Face Mask man ca, broke the Mountain Protection Array with a sword, and now threw Brother Duan’s head, clearly an enemy of their Ning Yuan Sect.
“You play the role well, so do you also want to tell you don’t know that in this area, the notorious and malevolent Black Heart Thieves’ leader is this man?” Lu Qing said blandly.
“What, Brother Duan is the Black Heart Thieves’ leader?”
“That’s impossible!”
“How could Brother Duan be the Black Heart Thieves’ leader!”
“Thief, stop slandering our Ning Yuan Sect’s True Disciple!”
Lu Qing’s words stirred up imdiate uproar among the Ning Yuan Sect disciples, who angrily rebuked him.
“You’ve seen, this disciple had always had a good reputation, before his disappearance he was acclaid as a young hero within a thousand miles, cannot be the Black Heart Thieves leader you claim.” Ning Jizi said seriously while retaining composure despite the shock from hearing the na Black Heart.
“Whether you deny it or not makes no difference to ,” Lu Qing shook his head, “This scum confessed everything before death.
It was you who used Evil Technique on him, placing a restriction to feign disappearance.
While secretly transforming into Black Heart Thieves, plundering passing rchants for resources, supplying your cultivation of Evil Technique.
Otherwise, with your talent, how else would you have consecutively broken through and reached Golden Core Ninth Turn Perfection so quickly, near achieving Primordial Spirit?”
Most Ning Yuan Sect disciples continued to disbelieve Lu Qing, yet a few, rembering sothing, had a slight change in expression.
This included the Golden Core late-stage elders.
“You are slandering! What proof do you have that I instructed Duan Xin to beco Black Heart Thieves, and whether this head is my disciple in the first place? You expend effort to tarnish Ning Yuan Sect’s reputation, do you think we won’t retaliate?”
At this point, Ning Jizi shouted loudly.
The powerful montum rose dramatically from him.
He knew he couldn’t let this Ghost Face Mask man say any more.
Otherwise, a few already suspicious individuals within the sect would grow more distrustful.
“I’ve said, your denial doesn’t affect . The reason I say this is just to let you die with understanding, lest you reach the Underworld not knowing who demands your life.” Lu Qing stated, using his fingers as a sword to make several gentle strokes.
Ning Jizi felt a sudden chill, but before he could react, he felt his limbs grow cold.
In the next mont, he couldn’t feel his arms or legs.
Ning Jizi was shocked, looking back only to find in horror his limbs slowly falling off.
When did Lu Qing’s Sword Qi cut them?
Soon after, he felt his body tightening, engulfed by an enormous invisible force, rapidly pulling him into the sky.
No matter how he exerted Magic Power Golden Core, he couldn’t escape the terrifying bind.
“Release our Sect Master!”
Lu Qing’s sword qi struck so quickly even Ning Jizi at Golden Core Ninth Turn couldn’t react, let alone others.
But as Lu Qing used Primordial Magnetic Power to grab Ning Jizi, the rest of the Ning Yuan Sect disciples, despite being shocked by Lu Qing’s Sword Qi, managed to react.
Led by the Golden Core late-stage elders, they attacked Lu Qing.
“Seal.”
However, as their Taoist Magical Treasures activated, Lu Qing gently uttered a word.
Everyone suddenly realized that an imnsely powerful Sealing Power descended over them.
Their Taoist Magical Treasures were entirely suppressed mid-air, along with their bodies, unable to move.
“Considering you were unknowing, this ti I only destroy the leader; if you resist again, I’ll annihilate the entire Ning Yuan Sect!”
Lu Qing’s indifferent voice echoed, causing the Ning Yuan Sect disciples’ Hearts and Spirits to tremble wildly, watching helplessly as the limbless Ning Jizi was seized by Lu Qing.
“Sir, the Black Heart Thieves matter truly has nothing to do with . Please distinguish, don’t be deceived by vile provocations.” Ning Jizi now recognized the figure before him as beyond his imagination. Terrified, he begged desperately.
“Do you know how the Black Heart Thieves usually deal with the rchants they rob?”
Lu Qing’s question confused Ning Jizi.
“Don’t know? No matter, I’ll now let you experience the suffering they endured. Rest assured, killing you outright is too easy; I won’t deal with you so simply. I’ll let you feel the pain suffered by those consud children a hundredfold.” Lu Qing’s slow speech increased Ning Jizi’s terror.
He tried to continue pleading, but it was too late.
An endless Illusion Realm descended upon him, and before sinking entirely, Ning Jizi’s mind only imprinted Lu Qing’s strange Ghost Face Mask.
The next mont, an extrely tragic scream echoed from the heavens.
