The Legendary Son-in-law of the Emperor-Chapter 38 - 37 A Palm Strike

38: Chapter 37: A Palm Strike

38 -37: A Palm Strike

“An old man should roll back to guarding his gate!” Yuan Zankong’s dominance was boundless as he wielded his broadsword with a proud glint in his eye.

With one slash, he pressed aggressively towards Qiu Wenhan.

Qiu Wenhan’s expression was grave as he formed seals with both hands, casting a Daoist technique.

Clearly, Qiu Wenhan wasn’t as at ease as he’d claimed.

At this moment, his mood was likely heavy.

It had been many years since he took action, and although his realm had improved, his true combat strength couldn’t compare to Yuan Zankong, who was tempered in life and death situations.

Boom!

The next moment, Qiu Wenhan clashed with Yuan Zankong, their auras shaking heaven and earth.

Occasional residual shockwaves escaping the battle twisted and distorted the void!

The strength of both individuals was formidable.

Jiang Jing and the others watched with expressions of deep concern.

“If even Elder Qiu can do nothing against Yuan Zankong, our sect is in grave danger…” Jiang Jing revealed a bitter smile.

They were well aware that Yuan Zankong was just the vanguard.

Behind him, wave after wave of attacks from Luotian Sacred Land would come.

When that happened, Emperor Immortal Sect would have no means to resist!

At that moment, within Emperor Immortal Sect, Zhou Youwei appeared like a fairy descending to earth, her garments fluttering as she stepped through the air.

Her temperament was cold and proud, captivating those around her.

Zhou Youwei, holding a three-foot green peak sword, arrived walking on air.

“Mother.” She arrived beside Jiang Jing.

“Elder Qiu is about to lose,” Jiang Jing said, looking at Qiu Wenhan, who was already showing signs of defeat, his face turning paler.

“Let me go and face him,” Zhou Youwei suggested, her red lips lightly pursed, determination in her beautiful eyes.

“No way!” Wu Jingshan, Lu Chengde, Jiang Jing, and the Fifth Elders spoke out in unison.

“You are the hope of Emperor Immortal Sect, you must not put yourself in danger!” Jiang Jing said earnestly.

Zhou Youwei shook her head gently, revealing a slight smile, “Since I am the hope of Emperor Immortal Sect, then even more so, I should be the one to take action.”

Boom————

Before her words could even land, Zhou Youwei had already turned into a divine rainbow, soaring into the sky.

With one sword strike, she forced back Yuan Zankong, who was about to seize the victory against Qiu Wenhan!

“Youwei!”

Jiang Jing wanted to stop her, but it was too late.

But when they saw Zhou Youwei repelling Yuan Zankong with a single sword, their eyes widened in disbelief.

“Isn’t Youwei just newly advanced to the realm of Prince?

Yuan Zankong’s strength far exceeds hers by more than one great realm, yet Youwei can actually repel this man?!”

Not only were they shocked, but others were also surprised, “The Holy Daughter’s strength is this formidable?!”

“Little Youwei?

How did you come out here?” Qiu Wenhan exclaimed in surprise.

“Grandfather Qiu, let Youwei deal with this man,” Zhou Youwei said as she drew the three-foot green peak sword, staring at Yuan Zankong with an aura condensed to the extreme.

Boom!

The next moment, intense flames erupted from above the three-foot green peak sword as if out of nowhere.

The fierce divine flames twisted and burned the void. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

“Hehehe, so this is the widely renowned Dual Divine Body Zhou Youwei, what a beauty.

It’s a pity she didn’t marry into my Luotian Sacred Land,” Yuan Zankong said, not in a hurry to act, but looking at Zhou Youwei with interest.

Ssssh————

Zhou Youwei had no interest in idle talk.

Her gaze fierce, she launched an attack with her sword while simultaneously casting the Great Emperor Immortal Skill “Heavenly God Fierce Fire Scripture,” instantly unleashing a burst of fierce divine flames, burning sky and earth!

Yuan Zankong, initially ready to tease, felt the terrifying power headed his way and his eyelids twitched, opting not to engage head-on but to actively dodge instead.

“I’ve always heard that the Holy Daughter of Emperor Immortal Sect is a cold beauty, and seeing you today, the fame is indeed well-deserved.

I really can’t help but want to taste,” after avoiding that sword strike, Yuan Zankong stepped back, grinned, and appraised Zhou Youwei with a look of interest.

“Shameless debauchee!”

The disciples of Emperor Immortal Sect, upon seeing this scene, instantly became furious.

Yuan Zankong of Luotian Sacred Land was too despicable, uttering such words to the goddess in their hearts!

Zhou Youwei remained silent.

With the “Heavenly God Fierce Fire Scripture” paired with her Fiery Sun Body, she unleashed incredible power, forcing even this Great Protector of Luotian Sacred Land to give ground.

Yuan Zankong, however, didn’t show any sign of impatience.

While dodging Youwei’s attacks, he continued to provocatively taunt her, inciting a continuous stream of curses from the people of Emperor Immortal Sect.

Some powerful onlookers were marveling at Youwei’s strength in the shadows.

“Zhou Youwei is truly formidable; even the notorious Yuan Zankong dares not face her attack.

Given time, she will surely become an invincible Sword Immortal!”

“It’s just a shame that she’s still too inexperienced.

Yuan Zankong refuses to meet her attack head-on because he intends to drain her True Qi.

Once Zhou Youwei runs out of True Qi, Yuan Zankong is certain to win!”

“It seems that today, Emperor Immortal Sect cannot escape this certain doom.”

“…”

Meanwhile, the expressions on the faces of Jiang Jing and the others were extremely ugly.

They wanted to intervene but understood that on the battleship of Luotian Sacred Land, there were even stronger beings.

If they lost their composure and acted rashly, it would only plunge Emperor Immortal Sect into chaos even quicker.

For a time, the situation seemed to be at an impasse.

But as time passed, Zhou Youwei obviously began to exhaust her True Qi, and her offensive slowed down.

“Little beauty, running out of strength?” Yuan Zankong continued to tease, “Keep it up, my dear, I haven’t even taken action yet.”

“Later, once I capture you alive, I will truly savor your ‘taste’.”

Yuan Zankong grinned and licked his lips, his eyes gleaming with amusement.

Those crude and obscene words ignited anger in anyone who heard them.

But within the Emperor Immortal Sect, there was no one with the courage to confront Yuan Zankong, for they were well aware that he was too strong, his power inducing despair.

Nobody noticed that within the Emperor Immortal Sect, a black-robed youth was leaping frantically, each jump carrying him over a mountain peak.

It was Ye Xuan, rapidly closing the distance.

In that moment, Ye Xuan’s eyes flashed with a cold and piercing light as he murmured softly, “Want to taste it?”

“The taste of death, I wonder if you would like it…”

Ye Xuan leaped up, soared briefly into the sky, and pointed a finger downward.

Boom————

In the next instant, a vast, black hand emerged from the Lie Tian Ancestor Temple, moving with extreme speed, and appeared almost instantly at the mountain gate of the Emperor Immortal Sect.

A palm struck down directly!

“Hmm?!” Yuan Zankong’s face changed slightly, and he instinctively raised his broadsword to block.

Boom————

A thunderous noise followed, and Yuan Zankong, along with the broadsword in his hand, was completely flattened, pounded into mush, dead beyond doubt.

After killing Yuan Zankong, the giant dark hand vanished in an instant, leaving the onlookers with just a fleeting glimpse before it disappeared.

Could it be that Yuan Zankong, who was just now hopping around and spewing nothing but unpleasant words, was just…gone?!

This sudden turn of events caught everyone off guard.

“Is it Ye Xuan?!”

Jiang Jing and the others immediately realized it and were overjoyed.

Meanwhile, the onlookers hidden in the shadows exploded into a frenzy at this moment.

“What’s going on?!”

“Could it be that the old ancestor of the Emperor Immortal Sect made a move?!”

“Impossible, the old ancestor of the Emperor Immortal Sect shouldn’t be able to take action, the Dao bans haven’t ended, if they act it would be inviting disaster!”

Instantly, everyone was in an uproar.

Zhou Youwei’s complexion turned a bit pale, her eyes filled with a trace of bewilderment.

She hadn’t even had the chance to react before Yuan Zankong was killed.

Boom!

Ye Xuan leaped again and finally arrived at the mountain gate of the Emperor Immortal Sect.

At the same time, aboard the warship of the Luotian Sacred Land, a significant disturbance had arisen.

“The protector Yuan is dead?!”

Some Hall Masters who had followed to battle were shocked beyond measure.

“The audacity of the Emperor Immortal Sect!” the two Elders stationed on the warship were immediately enraged.

Boom Boom————

In a flash, the aura of the two Elders blazed like the fierce Divine Sun, hanging high in the Nine Heavens, unleashing brilliant divine might!

“Emperor Immortal Sect shall be destroyed today!”

The two Elders from the Luotian Sacred Land were furious; above the sky dome, violent winds howled and thunder rolled!

“This is bad, it’s the Elders from the Luotian Sacred Land!” Jiang Jing and the others were shocked and without delay, they issued an order, “Activate the array!”

Whirring————

The Guardian Hall Masters of the Emperor Immortal Sect sprang into action at this moment, initiating the Sect Protection Array!

A barrier thin as cicada wings instantly erected, enshrouding the entire Emperor Immortal Sect!

Boom!

The two great Elders from the Luotian Sacred Land unleashed their formidable power, pouring it all onto the barrier.

The entire Emperor Immortal Sect shook continuously, the light of the Sect Protection Array dimming as if about to vanish into nothingness.

Such was the terrifying force, that just a single strike almost shattered the Emperor Immortal Sect’s Sect Protection Array.

“The Emperor Immortal Sect is finished.”

Upon witnessing this scene, the strong cultivators from the Southern Domain hidden in the shadows shook their heads in dismay.

Provoking the Luotian Sacred Land, such an outcome was foreseeable.

With just one more strike from those two Elders, the Emperor Immortal Sect’s Sect Protection Array would completely collapse!

“A mere Grotto Heaven dares to threaten to destroy my Emperor Immortal Sect?”

It was at this moment that Ye Xuan spoke out.

His voice seemed to come from all around, yet also as if directly whispering into one’s ear, vibrating through heaven and earth.
