I Can See Through Everything-Chapter 410

"Young Master Lu, do not let your guard down! Be wary of his counterattack! Even a Golden Core Realm cultivator won't die immediately even if their head is destroyed!"

As Lu Qing decapitated the white-robed youth, Yan's warning echoed in his mind.

Before the words fully settled, a powerful surge of Divine Sense erupted from the white-robed youth's body.

A torrent of Soul Power surged toward Lu Qing, accompanied by a phantom figure that emerged, lunging directly at the brow acupoint on Lu Qing's forehead. It was the very Divine Soul of the white-robed youth!

"Watch out!"

Amid Yan's alarmed shout, the youth’s Divine Soul nearly reached Lu Qing's brow.

In that critical moment, a golden radiance emerged from Lu Qing's body, forming an illusory Garment of Merit that shielded him from the Divine Soul's attack.

"Power of Merit? Break it for me!"

The phantom's distorted face let out a piercing soul-shriek, attempting to pierce through the defense of the Celestial Garment of Merit.

However, with a low hum, the phantom of an ancient cauldron materialized, completely enveloping Lu Qing.

A formidable Suppressive Force descended upon the youth's phantom, distorting and dissipating it with a single tremor.

"No!!"

Terror filled the phantom's eyes as it desperately tried to stabilize itself.

But it was futile. The Li Huo Cauldron's suppressive power shattered the white-robed youth's soul completely.

"You thought you could seize my body?"

Watching as the youth's Divine Soul disintegrated, Lu Qing's expression remained calm as he shook his head.

Not to mention the Garment of Merit and the Li Huo Cauldron that protected him, soul-based attacks were essentially ineffective against him.

Even if his Brow Acupoint were breached, the Earth Spirit Pearl and the Soul Talisman would ensure that no cultivator beneath the Nascent Soul Realm could ever succeed in a Body Seizure.

"You really succeeded!"

Yan appeared beside Lu Qing, staring at the lifeless corpse of the white-robed youth in disbelief.

Although Yan had assisted, it was undeniable that this white-robed man was no ordinary Golden Core Realm cultivator.

To think that Lu Qing, at the Peak Foundation Establishment, had reversed the odds and slain a Golden Core Realm opponent! Such a feat was unprecedented, even in the ancient Immortal Era of cultivation.

When Lu Qing first revealed his plan, Yan had thought it utterly insane.

Now, it was overwhelmed by shock.

Especially the earlier scene where Lu Qing completely suppressed the white-robed youth—it replayed in Yan's mind like a profound strike on its soul.

"So, this is the power of a Divine Ability... truly unfathomable," Yan thought to itself.

"Let’s go."

Lu Qing activated his Spiritual Power, inspecting the youth’s corpse to ensure he was truly dead. He then reached out and tossed the body into the Li Huo Cauldron.

Moments later, he soared into the sky. A small golden flying boat appeared beneath his feet, carrying him toward Jiuli Village.

...

While Lu Qing was en route to the village, far away in Zhongzhou, atop a grand mountain range...

A gray-robed man meditating in seclusion suddenly opened his eyes, his expression shifting dramatically.

From his storage artifact, he retrieved two shattered Soul Tablets.

"My junior brother's soul tablet... shattered?!"

The gray-robed man stared at the broken tablets in disbelief.

No matter how he tried to sense it, he could no longer detect even the faintest trace of his junior brother's Divine Soul.

There was only one explanation for this.

His junior brother had been annihilated—body and soul.

"What in the world happened?"

The man summoned an Eight Trigrams Artifact, exhaling a breath of Spiritual Qi onto it to begin a divination.

However, moments later, his face darkened further.

No matter how he tried to calculate, the results were shrouded in a fog of obscurity.

He couldn't discern who had killed his junior brother, nor pinpoint the exact location of his demise.

"Was the karma blocked by some Spatial Artifact, or is the Heavenly Dao itself interfering with me?

"Or could it be... the assailant's cultivation far surpasses mine?"

Countless possibilities flickered through his mind, but he quickly dismissed the last one.

They had descended into this small world for some time now, and it had only recently awakened.

In such a short period, it was impossible for someone far stronger than him to have emerged.

If such a terrifying existence truly existed, they would never have tolerated the tyrannical actions of him and his junior brother across Zhongzhou.

If the culprit wasn’t an overwhelmingly powerful entity, the remaining options were either an artifact or interference from this world's Heavenly Dao—or perhaps both.

"Junior Brother, I warned you not to indiscriminately slaughter.

"Your death may very well be the result of the atrocities you committed in the past."

The gray-robed man pondered silently.

After a while, he calmed his mind and resumed meditating.

"No matter the reason, rest assured, Junior Brother, I will avenge you.

"If I can’t find the culprit, I’ll ensure every living being in this world accompanies you to the grave!"

...

A streak of golden light streaked across the sky and descended into Jiuli Village.

"Master." Lu Qing landed in the Half-Mountain Courtyard.

"Ah Qing!"

"You’re back, Young Master Lu!"

Seeing Lu Qing return safely, Doctor Chen and Lin Zhirui were overjoyed.

"Young Master Lu, what happened to that white-robed man?" Wei Shanhai asked eagerly.

"I killed him," Lu Qing replied succinctly.

"Killed him?!"

Everyone inhaled sharply.

They had all witnessed the terrifying power of the white-robed man.

The mere aura he exuded was enough to strike terror into their hearts.

Even Lu Qing, whom they regarded as invincible, had been chased into retreat.

Now, Lu Qing stood before them, claiming to have killed the man?

Lin Zhirui and the others couldn’t help but doubt their ears.

"Yes," Lu Qing nodded, offering no explanation for how he had accomplished it.

Instead, he turned to Doctor Chen. "Master, how are the villagers?"

Doctor Chen's expression turned somber. "Most are unharmed, but a few elderly villagers passed away due to the immense psychological shock."

Lu Qing's heart tightened. "What about Grandpa Zhang?"

"Grandpa Zhang is fine," Doctor Chen assured. "Thanks to the care you’ve provided over the years, his vitality is strong. He only suffered minor tremors and will recover with some rest."

Hearing this, Lu Qing finally sighed in relief.

Among all the villagers of Jiuli Village, he was most attached to Grandpa Zhang.

Knowing the old man was safe eased his mind somewhat.

Yet, as he relaxed, a surge of killing intent welled up within him.

The villagers of Jiuli Village had always treated him and Xiao Yan kindly, and he had done his best to protect them.

This time, however, several elderly villagers had died because of the white-robed man.

How could he not be filled with murderous rage?
