I alone am the Invincible One!-Chapter 42: Improper Thought

One incense stick later, Xu Changqing, walking beside Wang Yufan, kept feeling some rustling footsteps not far behind them.

Xu Changqing said, "Master, are we being followed? I’ve been hearing someone behind us this whole way."

Wang Yufan replied indifferently.

"Just a few kittens and puppies."

Xu Changqing quickly said, "If they make a move, Master can definitely eliminate them all with ease."

Wang Yufan paused, smiled, and shook his head.

"You’re wrong. It’s you, not me."

"Ah." Xu Changqing was stunned.

"What ah? It’s settled. Let’s continue on our way."

Xu Changqing followed Wang Yufan with a troubled expression, while Little Black lifted a leg to pee and sniffed the surrounding environment. This innate habit, even as a Ten-Ranked Demon Beast, it couldn’t shake off.

When the three of them reached a gorge with cliffs over a hundred zhang high on both sides, they stopped.

Because standing on the path directly in front of them were five ferocious-looking people, looking at Wang Yufan and his group with playful eyes.

Just then, about a dozen more people appeared from behind.

Xu Changqing looked, and these dozen people who came from behind were none other than those from the Inn! No wonder ever since they left the Inn, someone had been following them.

"Good disciple, your delivery has arrived. I see good things on these people."

Wang Yufan said, patting Xu Changqing on the head.

Xu Changqing said, wincing.

"Your disciple trusts Master. Watch how your disciple takes down these scoundrels."

After Xu Changqing finished speaking, he took a step forward with the Seven Star Immortal-Slaying Sword on his back and shouted loudly.

"Hey, who are you people? Why are you blocking my master’s and my path?"

The twenty-some people in front and behind were stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.

"Hahahaha, little kid, didn’t your mom tell you when you left home that there are many bad people in the outside world? Of course we’re blocking the way to do bad things."

Among the five people blocking the front, a middle-aged man with a long beard, dressed in coarse linen, and carrying a large saber on his shoulder said this, his eyes scanning Xu Changqing up and down.

This gaze made Xu Changqing’s hair stand on end, and he then asked with some uncertainty.

"Uncle, you."

The middle-aged man said, "What about me?"

"You don’t have any improper thoughts about me, do you?"

As Xu Changqing’s words fell, the coarse linen-clad middle-aged man’s face instantly darkened.

The few people standing beside the middle-aged man in linen robes burst into laughter.

"Old Chai Tou, this kid’s eyes are sharp enough; he can see through all this mess."

Hearing the teasing from the people beside him, the middle-aged man in linen robes, named Old Chai Tou, gripped his knife even tighter.

He absolutely hated being spoken to like that, and an unknown surge of anger shot to his head.

A purple glow appeared in his eyes, and he vanished from his spot in an instant. The next moment, a heaven-shaking saber light slashed towards Xu Changqing.

"Kid, you’re courting death."

"Purple Flame World Annihilation Saber."

Xu Changqing was startled. This middle-aged man in linen robes was actually above the Spirit Severing Realm. Such power clearly indicated a high-rank Spirit Severing cultivator.

Xu Changqing quickly thought and then used Heavenly God Fist. This was the only cultivation technique he could use at the moment.

Seeing Xu Changqing make a move, the middle-aged man in linen robes sneered, saying,

"Merely a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator, daring to directly withstand my saber strike? Even people of my own realm wouldn’t dare face me like this.

Kid, should I say you don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth, or that you’re a mantis trying to block a cart."

Rumble. Rumble.

The two forces collided directly. Cracks appeared on the stone walls on both sides from the aftermath, and the canyon was instantly covered in dust.

After more than ten breaths, the middle-aged man in linen robes in the air looked down at the motionless ground, very satisfied as he put away the large saber in his hand.

"Hahaha, truly weak. Next life, remember to speak less when you reincarnate."

After saying this, the middle-aged man in linen robes prepared to descend.

Just then.

"Cough, cough, cough. Uncle, is your saber rusty? It’s just so-so. Fighting on the ground really affects my performance; I’m choking to death."

Hearing this voice, the middle-aged man in linen robes turned his head to look at the ground, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"Ho-how is this possible?"

When the dust cleared, Xu Changqing, whose face was covered in dust, was revealed.

There was not a single injury on his body, only the ground where he stood had sunk a few inches.

In the previous clash, with his Nascent Soul Realm fifth-layer strength, he should have been completely unable to withstand it. However, his physical strength was such that even the previous Crimson Demon Tiger was beaten soundly by him.

So, the middle-aged man in linen robes of the Spirit Severing Realm posed no threat.

Looking at the perfectly fine young man in front of him, the middle-aged man in linen robes narrowed his eyes.

At this moment, the other few people who came with the middle-aged man in linen robes also exchanged glances.

"Old Chai Tou, this kid is not right. A Nascent Soul cultivator being able to withstand your strike? This is not something an ordinary person possesses."

"Yes, let’s go together. We can’t let our guard down. Perhaps this kid is playing a pig to eat a tiger.

Don’t forget, they could produce top-grade spirit stones. They might be people from the upper domain and have many secret techniques."

The few people nodded, and then all soared into the air.

Seeing this, Xu Changqing’s expression changed. These few "old fogies" were going to attack together, so he also flew into the air.

He wasn’t afraid anyway. He had his Master to back him up, and he would definitely not stand by and watch him die.

Looking at the five people in front of him, Xu Changqing sensed their auras; they should all be at the high-rank Spirit Severing Realm and above.

Xu Changqing took a deep breath, calming himself down.

"Kid, are you scared now? Kneel and beg for mercy, and hand over the spirit stones on you, and we might consider leaving you a whole corpse."

The middle-aged man in linen robes said.

"You old geezers, bullying a young sprout like me, where has your pride as strong cultivators gone?"

"Hmph, stop with the glib talk. It looks like you’re not planning to do as I say, so don’t blame us. Brothers, let’s go together and take this kid down. The ordinary person without cultivation can be dealt with last."

Hearing the middle-aged man in linen robes, the few people all revealed their weapons.

They all rushed towards Xu Changqing.

At this moment, Wang Yufan, who was standing below, was cracking melon seeds he had taken from Spirit Temple Inn, leaning against a stone wall, muttering as he watched:

"Oh, these old guys aren’t playing fair, but Changqing should be able to handle it."

Just then, a leading young man among the dozen or so people behind him looked towards Wang Yufan, and an idea sparked in his mind.

So he said,

"Brothers, let’s go together and take this person down. They are with him. As long as we take this person, I believe the person in the air will also comply."

Everyone felt this made a lot of sense, and then slowly walked forward.

Wang Cai, who was still marking territory everywhere, saw someone approaching his master and instantly vanished from his spot, appearing in front of the dozen or so people the next moment.

Wang Cai’s sudden appearance startled the dozen people.

"Holy crap, Big Brother, this dog beast scared me to death."

Someone said, and the others also nodded. The leading young man looked at the black dog squatting in front of him with disdain.

"Alright, look how scared you all are. Leave it to me. Watch how I finish it off."

The leading young man gripped the hilt of the saber at his waist, flashed forward, and charged up, a bloodthirsty glint in his eyes.

However, he came fast and left fast.

A black shadow flashed in his eyes, and he seemed to have crashed into a mountain, flying backward directly.

And the dozen or so people who came with the leading young man hadn’t even reacted before they were knocked flying in all directions.

A hundred meters away, the leading young man continuously coughed blood, the left side of his face directly caved in.

He pointed at the black dog not far away, mumbling incessantly.

Just then.

Boom.

The ground trembled, and a figure directly smashed a huge deep pit into the ground.

"I don’t believe you’re still alive now."

The middle-aged man in linen robes and the other four stared intently at the deep pit covered by dust.
