Chapter 1990 - 1963: Qiu Tianrui Gravely Injured
The middle-aged man showed no change in expression upon hearing Lu Tianxing’s voice; rather, a cruel smile played on his lips. How could Lu Tianxing’s arrival make a difference? At such close proximity, even a late-stage Mythical master like Lu Tianxing couldn’t save Qiu Tianrui; Qiu Tianrui was doomed to die this time, and no one could save him.
Lu Tianxing’s figure shot forward like lightning, fully channeling the True Qi within his body, the Qi flowing like tidal waves. His entire being swept through the air like a fierce beast, and in the blink of an eye, he was by Qiu Tianrui’s side.
By the time Lu Tianxing reached Qiu Tianrui, it was already too late. A Sword Qi had pierced through Qiu Tianrui’s chest, and scarlet blood began to flow from the wound in his chest.
At this moment, Qiu Tianrui’s life was hanging by a thread, his chest completely stained with blood, his face pale as a sheet, eyes unfocused, and even the rise and fall of his chest was alarmingly pronounced.
"Young Master Qiu..."
Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, his whole body emanating a chilling aura that couldn’t be hidden.
"Lu... Mr. Lu, catch... catch him, Wei Xu was killed by him," Qiu Tianrui weakly said as he looked at Lu Tianxing.
As he spoke, a large amount of bloody foam overflowed from Qiu Tianrui’s mouth. He could clearly feel his life slipping away uncontrollably.
"What did you say?"
Lu Tianxing’s eyes flashed with cold light upon hearing Qiu Tianrui’s words. A frightening killing intent exploded from him, instantly saturating the air, and the oppressive force seemed to fill the entire space, making it difficult for anyone to breathe.
The middle-aged man stood still, seemingly unaffected by the sharp killing intent emanating from Lu Tianxing. However, it wasn’t that he didn’t want to move; he simply couldn’t. He was completely locked in by Lu Tianxing’s force, rendering him unable to move even if he wanted to.
Lu Tianxing quickly located a few points on Qiu Tianrui’s body, sealing the wounds to ensure he wouldn’t be in life-threatening danger in the short term, then he slowly stood up, his gaze fixed on the middle-aged man.
Under Lu Tianxing’s gaze, the middle-aged man felt as though he was being targeted by a bloodthirsty beast, his heart gripped by invisible hands making him feel breathless.
"Seize him!"
Lu Tianxing stepped forward slowly, yet the step was like traversing from heaven to the edge of the earth, instantly bringing him beside the middle-aged man.
"What?"
The middle-aged man looked terrified to the extreme, biting his tongue hard to resist Lu Tianxing’s influence. He roared, and multiple Sword Qi surged from his body, densely intertwining like a Sword Dragon across his body, rumbling: "Sword Dragon Ascension."
The Sword Dragon ascended quickly, carrying thunderous power as it charged towards Lu Tianxing.
"Feeble."
Lu Tianxing’s eyes flashed with disdain; he feared not even the late-stage Mythical level; what threat could an early-stage Mythical attack possibly pose?
With a cold laugh, Lu Tianxing raised his hand, mercilessly slamming it towards the Sword Dragon.
For the middle-aged man, it felt like his entire world vanished, leaving only a single palm rushing towards him.
"Ah!"
A sudden scream pierced the air.
The imposing Sword Dragon hadn’t even left the middle-aged man’s body before Lu Tianxing’s palm struck its head relentlessly. The Sword Dragon let out a pitiful wail, then shattered inch by inch from the force of Lu Tianxing’s slap.
"Pfft!"
The middle-aged man, too, seemed to be struck by lightning at that moment, flying rigidly backwards, spewing mouthfuls of blood.
Without pausing, Lu Tianxing stepped forward, ghost-like, charging directly at the middle-aged man, moving with extreme speed and leaving a discernible afterimage behind.
Before the middle-aged man could regain his senses, Lu Tianxing’s figure was already before him.
A chill erupted in the middle-aged man’s heart, inexorable like a flooding tide; he wanted to dodge but it was too late.
"Seize him!"
Lu Tianxing’s fingers formed a claw, tearing through the air like an eagle’s talon, clasping the middle-aged man’s neck and lifting him into the air effortlessly.
Just a simple attack, and the middle-aged man who had been unbeatable against Qiu Tianrui was now lifted like a chick by Lu Tianxing.
"Tell me, who sent you to kill Qiu Tianrui, why did you kill Wei Xu, and were you the ones who spread the rumors on Qin Island."
Lu Tianxing looked coldly at the middle-aged man: "I advise you not to test my patience, or I won’t hesitate to make you understand what it means to wish for death."
Listening to Lu Tianxing’s murderous words, the middle-aged man trembled, the fear in his eyes towards Lu Tianxing was evident. He knew Wei Xu died by his hand, and they spread the rumors. He understood Lu Tianxing’s methods clearly; caught by Lu Tianxing would mean death was the best escape, facing worse than death perhaps.
"Speak, or I won’t hesitate to crush every bone in your body," Lu Tianxing spoke again, pressing harder on the middle-aged man’s neck, causing his face to twist painfully, struggling to breathe.
Yet, the middle-aged man remained silent, slowly lifting his head to reveal a sneering grin to Lu Tianxing, then biting hard on his teeth. His pale complexion rapidly darkened visibly, body twitched twice, and there was no more sound.
Poison suicide!
Witnessing the middle-aged man’s change, Lu Tianxing’s face turned grim; another Death Soldier.
"Don’t think dying ends all; this time we’ll see who meets their end, and who truly laughs last," Lu Tianxing took a deep breath, suppressing his boiling killing intent, tossing the corpse aside, then striding towards Qiu Tianrui.
Lu Tianxing walked directly to Qiu Tianrui’s side, lifting him from the ground, swiftly carrying him like the wind, speeding towards the outside.
Once outside, Lu Tianxing placed Qiu Tianrui in the car, started the engine immediately and drove urgently towards the hospital.
