Urban Invincible Overlord-Chapter 1280 - 1277: Gan Qian’s Choice

"Junior Brother Gan Qian, why are you standing here in a daze? Do you still want to hold onto your sentiment for these Earth people?" A Foundation Establishment Cultivator from the Lingxiao Sect saw that Gan Qian had not taken any action for a long time and couldn’t help but frown and scold.

Gan Qian did not look at him but instead gazed at the Mountain Protection Array in front of him and shook his head, saying, "This life, I, Gan Qian, originally had no chance for higher realms, but after coming to Earth, thanks to Yang Fei’s generosity, I received a heaven-defying opportunity. Now that they are in trouble, I should not harm them since I cannot help them. How could I do something ungrateful?"

That Lingxiao Sect disciple was enraged, "Scoundrel, have you forgotten the Sect’s nurturing of you?"

Gan Qian looked pained and shook his head, "I dare not forget, but I have never done anything to betray the Sect."

That person’s expression changed for a moment, then sighed, "Junior Brother Gan Qian, this is the way of the world, you have no choice, make a move quickly, even if it’s just for show, don’t let others catch you, or how will you live in the Lingxiao Sect in the future?"

Gan Qian raised his head.

At this moment, among those attacking the Mountain Protection Array of White Jade City, three people had been killed consecutively, and more were severely injured by the power of the Attack Formation.

The first wave of cultivators attacking the Barrier Wall of the Mountain Protection Array was frightened back.

A resolute look flashed in Gan Qian’s eyes, and he said loudly, "Yes, a choice must be made."

As he spoke, he dashed forward.

A Flame Moon Sect Cultivator was retreating, and seeing Gan Qian advancing despite difficulties, couldn’t help but warn, "There is something strange about that formation, don’t approach it for now..."

"I know."

Gan Qian responded, and when less than ten meters away, he suddenly attacked, his Flying Sword striking.

That person was shocked and roared, "Bastard!"

At the same time, this person reacted quickly, dodging swiftly, preparing to flee, but Gan Qian, simultaneously with launching his Sword Control, cast four or five Fireball Techniques, accurately blocking that person’s escape routes.

This person roared, raised his sword to parry, and repelled Gan Qian’s Flying Sword, but saw Gan Qian waving his hands, releasing several powerful Mana surges, striking him with a blade-like force.

The Flame Moon Sect Cultivator immediately had several blood flowers burst from his body, his breath weakening.

Gan Qian swooped in, his sword rising and falling, a head flying into the air.

Though it takes long to describe, in reality, Gan Qian’s sudden attack and beheading of his opponent took no more than a second.

This person’s cultivation was slightly weaker than Gan Qian’s, and being caught off guard, was easily killed.

Several nearby Cultivators from the Flame Moon Sect, Great Dao Sect, and the three aristocratic families, witnessing this, roared in fury and attacked Gan Qian.

After his successful strike, Gan Qian swiftly crushed a Divine Speed Talisman.

This Divine Speed Talisman was made by Zhuge Cang, Tong Yunshu, and Lu Chen, and although inferior to a Second Rank Divine Speed Talisman from the Southern Domain, it could instantly transport a person 200 meters away for life-saving purposes.

Gan Qian vanished instantly, and the dozen or so attacks aimed at him all struck empty air.

In the next instant, Gan Qian appeared in front of the Mountain Protection Array.

Yang Fei’s Divine Thought moved, and the Mountain Protection Array opened a small gap, allowing him inside.

Earlier, when the Southern Domain crowd retreated, Gan Qian went against the flow, suddenly rising to kill someone, a scene witnessed by many Earth cultivators.

Many Earth cultivators felt surprised and unexpected about Gan Qian’s choice, although some had already predicted it.

Compared to the vast Cultivation World of the Southern Domain, Earth may be slightly smaller, but the competition in the Earth Cultivation World is healthy, and Gan Qian, along with the Lingxiao Sect disciples, received the best cultivation resources here.

Staying on Earth, they had more cultivation time, without needing to waste time on endless sect tasks, and even the cultivation resources didn’t need to be earned through tasks or snatched.

If they remained in the Southern Domain Lingxiao Sect, these Lingxiao Sect disciples would face an awkward position of mistrust from the Sect.

Not only that, they were now tasked with attacking the Earth Cultivation World.

Since they already lacked trust from the Sect and had slain disciples from other Southern Domain sects and families on Earth, remaining in the Southern Domain became more dangerous than staying on Earth. They might as well stay here.

At least Yang Fei was genuinely sincere and hadn’t forced him to do anything against the Lingxiao Sect yet.

"I knew you would return," Yang Fei said, looking at Gan Qian.

Gan Qian said with shame, "Coming back this time, I failed to help Earth, and I am truly ashamed."

Yang Fei waved his hand, saying, "Such a big matter, is it something a mere Lingxiao Sect disciple can affect?"

Gan Qian’s heart warmed, feeling a bit moved.

On Earth, he felt more of the human touch.

Though cultivation is the pursuit of immortality, even cutting off worldly ties, how many in the Cultivation World truly achieve immortality?

In Gan Qian’s heart of hearts, he felt a cultivator is firstly a human, one that needs bonds; otherwise, what is the point of life?

Even beasts have bonds.

Outside the Mountain Protection Array.

As the Southern Domain cultivators temporarily retreated, intimidated by the Attack Formation of the Mountain Protection Array, Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang pursued and ensnared one of them.

Both were Sword Cultivators, their Magic Swords shot out ruthlessly, instantly blocking that person’s retreat.

That person blocked Helian Zhan’s Flying Sword but couldn’t dodge Wang Chunyang’s sword, which pierced through his chest, instantly killing him.

It wasn’t that he was too weak, but that Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang’s combined attack was incredibly powerful, and without a defensive magical treasure’s help, a Foundation Establishment Cultivator couldn’t withstand it head-on. 𝐟𝐫𝕖𝗲𝘄𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝕧𝐞𝚕.𝕔𝕠𝐦

"Senior Brother Tong!"

"Damn it, the Earth cultivators are pushing too far, chasing us down; stop retreating, kill them!"

Suddenly, several Foundation Establishment Cultivators surrounded and attacked Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang.

Fearlessly, Helian Zhan and Wang Chunyang were instead highly thrilled, not daring to let their opponents form a siege, nor let them unleash powerful magical treasures. They both maneuvered their Flying Swords, each targeting an opponent and attacking.

On another side, Chris and Wales, along with five Blood Clan powerful beings, charged out.

The moment these five appeared, they exuded a violent and bloody aura that caused inexplicable fear. Once they rushed out from the array, they each entangled an opponent.

Among them, two Southern Domain cultivators were retreating with the army and were suddenly entangled by the terrifying aura of the Blood Clan. Their slightly weaker minds panicked, and soon their opponents closed in, quickly engaging in close combat.

Though these two were Foundation Establishment experts and reacted swiftly, their attacks on the Blood Clansmen, while harmful, weren’t fatal. The Blood Clan, relying on its formidable body and recovery ability, withstood a blow and plunged into their arms, locking them with sharp claws, and bit deeply into their throats with fangs extended.

The two Foundation Establishment Cultivators, caught by the Blood Clan’s fangs at the throat, lost their resistance on the spot. Overwhelmed by enormous terror, they felt their life Qi mechanism ferociously drain away, completely uncontrollable.

Within moments, these two were drained to shriveled corpses.

The other three Blood Clans were also brave, but their opponents were more vigilant. Entangled in a fierce fight, each Foundation Establishment Cultivator’s attack was impenetrable, leaving the Blood Clans unable to close in, incapable of subduing their opponents.

Meanwhile, on the far right, a terrifying Sword Intent surged skyward as Wang Lei swung a fierce blade at the three in front of him.

Those three watched in horror, seemingly their bodies rooted by something, unable to dodge.
