Chapter 144: Elder Dog
The Elders who were charging towards Su Zhan with joyful expressions were stunned.
The joy on their faces immediately disappeared, replaced by fear, shock, and confusion. Wasn't Su Zhan supposed to have his meridians destroyed by the power of the Saint Qi Pill?
Wasn't he supposed to be defenseless and easy to kill?
How did he manage to blast away a Second Transformation Realm Elder with just one punch???
Wait!
His true qi Fish-Dragon Second Transformation! He successfully broke through!
Sensing Su Zhan's change in realm, all the Elders were taken aback. Some of them looked at Elder Huo in bewilderment.
Even Elder Huo was more bewildered than them.
As an alchemist, he knew the power of the Saint Qi Pill very well. Even if one was a Saint, it would be impossible to completely refine it. How did Su Zhan manage to do it?
It's irrational! Too irrational!
Elder Huo's expression was dazed, feeling like all his understanding of alchemy over the years had been overturned in an instant.
As Su Zhan's gaze fell upon him, Elder Huo trembled and quickly shouted, "Don't be afraid! I, with my two hundred years of alchemy experience, guarantee that he must be forcing himself!"
"Even if he luckily broke through to Fish-Dragon Second Transformation, he must have suffered severe injuries at this moment! Moreover, do you think he will spare us now? Attack together and kill him!"
"Elder Huo is right! We have no retreat now!"
"We must fight to the end!"
"He's a sword cultivator, but he's not using his sword right now. It shows that he's having a hard time mobilizing his true qi, so he has no choice but to rely on body refining techniques that don't rely too much on true qi!"
Upon hearing Elder Huo's words, the other elders who had already approached Su Zhan made up their minds and launched an attack on him.Follow current novels at novelhall.com)
Of course, they spoke righteously, but in truth, they didn't dare to get too close. They only used long-range methods such as sword qi to attack Su Zhan.
Listening to their words, Su Zhan felt a bit speechless.
What do they mean by "only able to use body refining techniques"? It's because you don't deserve me drawing my sword! Muttering to himself, Su Zhan activated the Limitless Stellar Body.
His body emitted a dazzling starlight, and the Wind God Boots flickered with a blue light. He disappeared and reappeared in front of a Fish-Dragon Realm Second Transformation warrior who was attacking with sword qi. Without a word, he punched out.
"Boom!"
This punch directly shattered the warrior's main weapon sword, and then it slammed into his head. His head exploded.
"What are you doing, Elder Nie!" Elder Huo saw Nie Yuan directly using his lifesource Sword and Sole Sword Technique, instantly terrifying him, and he exclaimed in shock.
"Boom!" Nie Yuan's sword struck the defense of Elder Huo.
In the next moment, Elder Huo was thrown into the air, crashing to the ground, coughing up blood, severely injured!
Although they were both in the Third Transformation of the Fish-Dragon Realm, Nie Yuan was at the peak of the Third Transformation and had experienced countless battles, while Elder Huo was just an alchemist and naturally couldn't compare in terms of combat power.
Nie Yuan's true qi surged throughout his body, one hand holding Elder Huo, ignoring everything else, he knelt before Su Zhan, his voice trembling, "I am Nie Yuan, the Great Elder of the Sole Sword Sect. I have apprehended the mastermind behind the plot to harm Lord Su. I am at Lord Su's mercy!"
At this moment, only three Golden Robe Elders remained on the scene. Seeing Nie Yuan's actions, they seemed to have grasped at a lifeline and also knelt down, begging for mercy.
"Lord Su, spare us! It was all Elder Huo's manipulation!"
"We dare not oppose you, Lord Su! That old dog Elder Huo deserves to die, he deserves to die!"
"Elder Huo is extremely cunning. We have all pledged allegiance to Lord Su. He's the one who instigated this!"
Voices filled with fear and desperation rang out one after another. The Elders were filled with anger and resentment as they glared at Elder Huo. If it weren't for him, they would still be peacefully cultivating, how could they have fallen to this point?
At this moment, Elder Huo also turned to look at the other Elders and Nie Yuan, his eyes widened, filled with disbelief.
What happened to not living without vengeance? Why the hell are they changing their stance so quickly?
Elder Huo became more and more furious as he shouted, "I might have been framed, but you lot can't escape responsibility either! Don't you remember who said won't rest until Su Zhan is dead'?"
Nie Yuan's forehead was covered in cold sweat as he loudly said, "Nonsense! That was to deceive you!"
Then, he turned to Su Zhan with respect and said, "To be honest, I did know about Elder Huo's plan! However, I endured humiliation and bided my time, waiting for those with ill intentions towards Lord Su to reveal themselves, and then I would eliminate them all in one go to prevent future trouble! Nie Yuan is absolutely loyal to Lord Su, the heavens and earth can bear witness to it!"
The other Elders also echoed his sentiments.
"Elder Huo, no! He should be called Elder Dog! This is a cunning old dog, if Lord Su nods, I am willing to kill him for you!"
"This old dog is indeed ruthless and does evil deeds! He has done all sorts of things like forcibly taking married women!"
"Not just that! I personally saw this old dog even not letting a mother pig escape!"
"Puff!"
Hearing those increasingly outrageous words, Elder Huo's blood boiled with rage, and his already severely injured wounds burst open, spewing out a mouthful of blood.
His eyes wide open, blood continued to gush from his mouth.
After a few seconds, he took his last breath. He died with his eyes open and no peace in his heart.
