Chapter 30: Killing Fish

"Deacon Tianxiong, when we entered the city today, I seemed to hear the sound of firecrackers and gongs, as if someone was getting married. I deliberately sent a spirit insect to follow them and noted down the address. Deacon Tianxiong, do you want the juniors to accompany you to practice some Daoist techniques tonight?" one of the Black Mountain Sect disciples said obsequiously.

Upon hearing this, Chu Tianxiong smiled with satisfaction.

"Your name is Liu Wei, right? You know how to do things; I'll remember you. Tonight, when we practice the technique, you'll be the first to taste that bride," Chu Tianxiong said.

Everyone burst into laughter.

However, Chu Tianxiong's face suddenly turned fierce as he remembered something.

"That Qi Yuan from Seven-Colored Peak was really infuriating today! If it weren't for his good master, I would have made him understand what a real bloodbath and earthly hell look like!"

"Deacon Tianxiong, I heard that Qi Yuan is mentally challenged. Why bother with a fool? When we unify the cultivation world of Dashang, you can do whatever you want to that fool," someone chimed in.

Nightfall was approaching.

Just then, a rhythmic knock was heard at the gate.

The people from the Black Mountain Sect in the courtyard stopped their conversation.

Chu Tianxiong looked toward the gate and said, "Liu Wei, go check it out."

Liu Wei got up and walked toward the gate.

When the door opened, a masked man appeared before everyone.

The mask was simple, without any facial features, very plain.

Liu Wei saw the visitor and couldn't help but show a mocking expression: "What are you doing here?"

The masked man took out a kitchen knife and spoke slowly, his voice a bit hoarse: "I am a bit hungry and plan to kill some fish to eat."

"Is he an idiot?" Liu Wei was momentarily stunned.

Chu Tianxiong noticed the situation at the gate and called out, "There's fish in the pond; let him in."

Liu Wei smiled, "Deacon Tianxiong is kind, rewarding you with a fish to eat."

However, someone inside the courtyard asked, "Deacon Tianxiong, why did you let him in?"

Chu Tianxiong replied, "It's boring here. Let's find some entertainment. The guy seems crazy, but his skin... is quite fair."

They were bold and very powerful, not worried about encountering difficult problems. Moreover, they did not sense any danger from the masked man.

The masked man, holding the kitchen knife, entered the courtyard.

Patriarch Baiji was cultivating in the inner courtyard, while the others looked at the masked man with mocking expressions.

When the masked man got closer, Chu Tianxiong suddenly stopped him: "Take off your mask and let me see what you look like."

The masked man hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly, seemingly reluctant: "Do you really want to see?"

"Haha, why not let us see? Are you horribly ugly?"

"If you're ugly, I'll give you a new face!"

The Black Mountain Sect members laughed heartily, the moonlight casting eerie shadows on their faces.

"Sigh, before I put on this mask today, I said that those who see my face will have no good end."

"What kind of bad end? Tell me!" Chu Tianxiong said. S~eaʀᴄh the nôvel_Fire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

However, at that moment, something unexpected happened.

The masked man raised the kitchen knife.

A flash of white light, and before anyone could react, Chu Tianxiong's large head fell to the ground.

His face still held the smile from before, now frozen in that moment.

Everyone present was stunned.

It happened so fast, so suddenly.

The masked man looked at Chu Tianxiong's head thoughtfully and said, "So, your blood disaster was destined to be at my hands. Meeting me was your doom. If there's a next life, be reborn as an ant. I'm kind-hearted and never use hot water to scald ant nests."

The others were confused, angry, and shocked.

"Deacon Tianxiong!"

"How dare you!"

"Traitor!"

Though frightened, the disciples quickly reacted and attacked the masked man.

Seeing this, the masked man smiled lightly: "In games, monsters don't have health bars. You don't have health bars either. What's the difference between you and monsters?"

"Oh, right, there is a difference."

"You scream, so I don't need to do the voice acting."

"Indeed, I am a genius!"

As the disciples looked on in confusion, anger, and fear, the masked man, holding the kitchen knife, moved like the most elegant dancer.

The knife rose and fell.

Summer Eight Slashes.

"Ah!"

"Run!"

"Who are you!"

In an instant, most of the Black Mountain Sect disciples present were dead.

Only four or five remained, trembling with fear.

At that moment, an enraged voice came from the inner courtyard.

"Insolent fool!"

Patriarch Baiji, who had been cultivating, finally woke up and attacked.

The remaining Black Mountain Sect disciples looked delighted, feeling they had survived a catastrophe.

The masked man might be terrifying, but he was definitely not at the Yuan Dan stage!

With Patriarch Baiji's shout, a Dan light shot toward the masked man.

The masked man, seeing this, raised his kitchen knife and shouted: "Heavenly Slash Sword Technique!"

This was the first time he had used this big skill in reality!

Facing a tough opponent required a big move.

He leaped into the air, the moonlight bathing his white robe.

His outline glowed faintly with white light, making his figure appear ethereal, yet the outline remained solid.

In Patriarch Baiji's eyes, it seemed as if a kitchen knife slashed out from the moon.

An overwhelming, unimaginable blade light rushed toward Patriarch Baiji.

For some reason, Patriarch Baiji felt fear.

He was a Yuan Dan cultivator.

The opponent... was definitely not at the Yuan Dan stage.

The blade light crushed everything in its path, instantly engulfing Patriarch Baiji's Dan light.

In the next moment, the blade light shattered Patriarch Baiji's protective Dan light.

The once imposing Patriarch Baiji was directly slain by a single slash.

His round golden core turned into a small shattered ball, full of holes.

The masked man was momentarily stunned: "That's it?"

He knew he would win, but he didn't expect it to be so easy.

Maybe he was too powerful.

Maybe his knife was quite good too.

Or perhaps...

He looked at the small golden core on the ground and commented, "His golden core is too small, and his Dan light is insufficient. It couldn't even withstand one slash. It seems that when forming a golden core in the future, it should be bigger, and the Dan light should be more."

The masked man said this and looked up at the moon.

"At the very least, the Dan light should be as much as the moonlight, right?"

At this point, the remaining few disciples were trembling uncontrollably, some even running away.

The masked man saw this and recited, "I am a person from my homeland, and I love to kill entire families!"

With that, he slashed, killing the remaining disciples instantly.

The masked man looked at the corpses on the ground, walked toward the pond slowly.

"Time to catch a fish to eat."

He said, rolling up his pants, washing the kitchen knife by the pond, and then caught a black fish.
