"Two Violet Sun Golden Celestials?"
Upon hearing Zheng Qiu said the two old men were Violet Sun Golden Celestials, Qin Yu's expression changed immediately. Even Duan Ling Tian's expression had turned grim.
However, when Duan Ling Tian discovered Zheng Qiu did not seem to be afraid of the two Violet Sun Golden Celestials, he realized Zheng Qiu was confident about defeating the two Violet Sun Golden Celestials. For this reason, he regained his calm. It was not only due to Zheng Qiu's confidence, but he was also confident about his own ability.
Unless the Violet Sun Golden Celestials had mastered profound Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, Duan Ling Tian was certain he did not even need to use his Devata Artefact, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword, to defeat them! Even if the two Violet Golden Celestials had mastered profound Celestial Methods and Divine Abilities, he was certain he could still defeat them as long as he used his Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. Naturally, if it was not necessary, he preferred not to use the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword. The Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword was the ace up his sleeve. He would not use it unless it was absolutely necessary!
"Is that so?" Zheng Qiu smiled in response to the black-clad old man's threats. His eyes glinted coldly as he said, "Go ahead and try!" Based on his words, it was clear he was not cowed by the threats.
Upon hearing Zheng Qiu's words and seeing how unaffected Zheng Qiu was, the white-clad old man's expression changed drastically. He looked at Zheng Qiu warily as he asked, "What position do you hold in the County Governor's estate?!"
There were only two possibilities that Zheng Qiu could remain fearless upon discovering their strength and identities; first, Zheng Qiu was only putting on a front, and second, Zheng Qiu was truly unafraid and was confident he would be able to defeat or kill them. However, based on the situation, it seemed like the latter was more likely to be the reason!
"Remember that Zheng Qiu of the County Governor's estate in the Nine Specters County was the one who killed you when you're in hell!" As soon as Zheng Qiu finished speaking, he made a move immediately. A violent and powerful force surged out of his body like a flurry of tornados. It carried him toward the Black and White Hero.
"Zheng Qiu?!"
"The second strongest person in Nine Specters County apart from the Great Overarching Golden Celestials in Nine Specters County?!"
The expressions of the Black and White Heroes changed dramatically at this moment. They could not hide the shock and fear on their faces.
Zheng Qiu! The inner estate elder of the County Governor's estate in the County City of Nine Specters County! Apart from Great Overarching Celestials, he was the second strongest person in the entire Nine Specters County.
Duan Ling Tian and Qin Yu looked at each other in surprise after hearing white-clad man's words. They did not expect the special envoy that was sent to escort and guard them was the second strongest person among the Golden Celestials in the entire Nine Specters County!
Upon hearing this, the worried expression on Qin Yu's face vanished immediately. It seemed like there was no need to worry with a person of such a caliber here.
"Lord Zheng Qiu, please show mercy… We're willing to give up all our treasures to you!" The white-clad and black-clad old men cried out hurriedly as they retreated. They hoped they would be able to exchange their treasures for their lives.
Zheng Qiu scoffed. He said disdainfully, "Lord County Governor has already said that whoever is able to kill the Black and White Heroes will be able to keep their treasures. Even if I kill you, your treasures will still be mine!" It was clear that he was determined to kill Zheng Qiu, leaving them with no way out.
The black-clad old man's eyes turned cold when he heard Zheng Qiu's words. He said in a cold voice, "Brother, since he's adamant about killing us, we'll just fight with him to our deaths! I'd like to see if he lives up to his name!"
"Alright!" At this time, the white-clad old man knew this was their only option. His eyes gleamed coldly as well, and he narrowed his eyes, making his eyes look even smaller on his chubby face.
Whoosh!
The Celestial Origin Energy that the black-clad old man mobilized earlier surged out of his body immediately! At the same time, he did not forget to order his roughly twenty subordinates to kill Duan Ling Tian and Qin Yu. "Everyone, move! Kill the two men who are with him. If we are to be killed by Zheng Qiu, we'll drag the two young men to hell with us!"
Zheng Qiu did not expect the black-clad old man would give such an order. His expression changed instantly. Although he was confident about killing the Black and White Heroes, it would still take some time. If the Black and White Heroes' subordinates decided to disregard their lives and attack the two young men in his charge, he was not sure he could protect them. Based on his knowledge, even the weakest among the subordinates was a Crimson Sun Golden Celestial. The strongest was a Yellow Sun Golden Celestial!
Bang!
Zheng Qiu who was fast approaching the Black and White Heroes came to halt suddenly as an explosion rang in the air. His energy raged in the air, causing the sound of the explosion. He turned to look at the Black and White Heroes' subordinates coldly. He planned to kill all of them first before dealing with the Black and White Heroes.
When the Black and White Heroes's subordinates felt Zheng Qiu's cold gaze on them, their expressions changed drastically.
When the black-clad old man saw Zheng Qiu's hesitation, he laughed heartily. "Zheng Qiu, it seems like you care about the two young men…" At the same time, he and the white-clad man moved to block Zheng Qiu's path. He ordered his subordinates again, "Kill them! Don't worry about Zheng Qiu!"
The black-clad man's words caused Zheng Qiu to feel slightly anxious. His eyes turned colder. "My targets are the Black and White Heroes… If you remain at your spot and don't cause any trouble, I'll spare your lives!" He decided to compromise to ensure Duan Ling Tian and Qin Yu's safety.
The men who surrounded Duan Ling Tian and Qin Yu's eyes lit up upon hearing Zheng Qiu's words.
The black-clad man who sensed his subordinates hesitation said in a hurry, "Don't believe his bullsh*t! Quickly kill the two men and flee… My brother and I will fight Zheng Qiu with all our might. That will give all of you enough time to flee."
Upon hearing this, Zheng Qiu's expression changed again.
"Kill!"
"Kill them!"
As soon as the black-clad old man finished speaking, his men no longer hesitated. Attacks after attacks headed toward Duan Ling Tian and Qin Yu. They, naturally, trusted the black-clad old man more than Zheng Qiu.
"All of you are seeking death!" Upon seeing this, Zheng Qiu knew it was useless to say any more words. His eyes were icy-cold as Celestial Origin Energy surged out of his body again and propelled him toward the Black and White Heroes like a hurricane.
"Zheng Qiu, since this is your choice, their deaths will be your fault!" The black-clad man said viciously. At the same time, he moved toward Zheng Qiu as well.
On the other hand, the white-clad old man joined forces with the black-clad old man and attacked Zheng Qiu since they knew they had no other way out of this.
Meanwhile, Duan Ling Tian was surprised by the strength of the men surrounding him and Qin Yu. 'All of them are Golden Celestials?' However, unlike Qin Yu, he was calm.
"Seeking death!" Duan Ling Tian's eyes were cold as his Celestial Origin Energy coursed through his 99 Heavenly Veins and surged out of his body like tens of thousands of sword rays. They buzzed in the air, and the piercing sound of sword cries could be heard.
From afar, the sword rays were as dazzling as the sun. It was extremely eye-catching.
"Elementary Devouring Tactic! Sword Formation! Thirteen Green Lotus Swords!" After Duan Ling Tian cast all his skills, he retrieved a primitive Celestial Sword he had obtained in the Spirit Overarching Heaven. In his opinion, these men should be honored that he had even used this primitive Celestial Sword to deal with them. They were not worthy of the Devata Artefact, the Seven Orifices Exquisite Sword.
With the full force of Duan Ling Tian's sword Formation, 13 of the Golden Celestials who were charging at him were instantly killed without a chance to retaliate.
Blood splattered in the air, looking like a blood rain when it fell
Bang!
At the same time, Qin Yu who was standing next to Duan Ling Tian was severely injured by the eleven Golden Celestials. Their attacks rained on Qin Yu continuously.
'Am I going to die today?!' A hint of despair and reluctance could be seen in Qin Yu's eyes at this moment. There were many things he had yet to achieve...
When Qin Yu felt that all hope was lost, a piercing sword cry rang from afar. Following that, he saw a sky full of sword rays zoomed past him.
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
A series of explosions sounded in the wake of the sword rays. The attacks that were raining down on Qin Yu stopped immediately.
