I Fabricated the Techniques, but my disciple really mastered them?

Chapter 773: Chapter 406 Ant Tricks, Turn to Ashes and Oblivion_2

"Could they really be coming for me?"

Li Xuan muttered, suddenly feeling excited.

"Let's see how you're going to make your move."

Li Xuan still seemed as if he hadn't noticed anything, silently waiting.

Before long, Ping Qiu and Emperor Da Yue arrived.

It was at Ping Qiu's request. After learning of the miraculous effects of the Formation and Pills, he pleaded with Emperor Da Yue to meet Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu in person to buy the Array Plates and Pills.

The purpose, of course, was to strengthen the defenses of Broken Dawn Mountain, to guard against attacks from Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow.

Emperor Da Yue pondered for a moment but couldn't just ignore Ping Qiu's face. After all, he was an Immortal Heavenly Venerable, representing Broken Dawn Mountain with good intentions.

So, he could only personally accompany Ping Qiu.

"Ping Qiu, what are you doing here?"

Feng Yan asked with a puzzled expression.

"Feng Yan? Since you are also here, it couldn't be better. Speak well on my behalf; I'm here to purchase Array Plates and Pills, and to visit Brother Fang Hao and Miss Su Lingxiu."

Ping Qiu was slightly surprised, then said cheerfully.

He hoped Feng Yan would put in a good word for him, considering their shared bond as Undying beings from the Nine Mountain Realm, helping him to smoothly acquire the Array Plates and Pills.

"No problem, as long as you can afford the treasures."

Feng Yan nodded.

Flattery or not, these were unimportant so long as Ping Qiu could afford the treasures. He would naturally be able to buy what he needed.

Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu were only interested in the treasures for selling their Array Plates and Pills.

Neither Emperor Da Yue nor Feng Yan suspected Ping Qiu, because after all these days, it had been confirmed that Ping Qiu was unproblematic.

If he were the assailant, would he reveal the plan of Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow?

"It's time to make a move."

Li Xuan glanced at the Immortal Heavenly Venerable hidden within the clouds, who had now edged a bit closer. The distance was very skillfully maintained, close enough to not be detected by Emperor Da Yue, yet capable of unleashing a devastating strike in an instant.

At a glance, one could tell he was an experienced assassin.

Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu walked out. Ping Qiu was taking out treasures to negotiate the purchase of Array Plates and Pills, as well as to understand their usage.

He had no intention of attacking.

Even being so close, he did not entertain the thought of striking.

After all, Emperor Da Yue and Feng Yan were by his side. Even if he attacked suddenly, with his strength, it wasn't certain that he would succeed in killing his target.

Besides, there was also an unknown mysterious powerhouse present.

"The alarm Formation you need is this set right here, the most suitable. It covers a wide range, and once an outsider infiltrates, it will send out an alarm, activating the Formation's power..."

Fang Hao took out a set of Array Plates, explaining their function to Ping Qiu.

Boom!

Suddenly, a terrifying presence descended, swift and unparalleled. As the presence emerged, the powerful attack had already arrived.

"Be careful!"

Ping Qiu's face changed drastically as he surged with power, launching a fierce blow as if trying to counter the incoming attack.

Upon Emperor Da Yue's shifting expression, the Halberd was instantly in action, thunderously targeting the Immortal Heavenly Venerable who had suddenly descended from the clouds.

"Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow?!"

Emperor Da Yue's heart roared with fury. An Immortal Heavenly Venerable had infiltrated their midst, and he had failed to notice. How had the attacker achieved this?

The terrifying power of the Domain poured down at that moment. As soon as the foe struck, it was a ferocious blow, not directed at him, nor at Feng Yan, but at Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu.

The strength of this strike was exceedingly broad and concealed a deadly threat. If one could not block it completely, even a slight spread of its remnant force could annihilate beings below the True King Heavenly Venerable.

"How dare you!"

Feng Yan roared in anger as a layer of rock-like strength emerged from him. Amidst the rumbling noise, a rock-like defense opened up, shielding Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu within it.

Thud!

A cold gleam of light suddenly stabbed at his defense. With a thud, it was as if the rock had been pierced through.

Feng Yan's complexion changed as his aura surged and he threw a punch, unleashing a potent force of annihilation, rising to the heavens, targeting the assailant.

The overwhelming power of destruction had even startled Emperor Da Yue. Could it be that Feng Yan possessed such formidable martial arts?

In terms of sheer oppressive force, the punch thrown by Feng Yan was far more violent than his halberd.

This was precisely the minor Divine Skill that Feng Yan had labored arduously to cultivate, the Great Demolition Fist.

"Die!"

The Immortal Heavenly Venerable attacking him suddenly surged with a chilling aura at that moment; his presence became frenzied, and he actually used a costly secret technique in that instant.

"Join forces to block him!"

Ping Qiu roared furiously, his momentum bursting forth, eyes bloodshot with seemingly uncontainable resentment toward the attacker.

Boom!

He made his move, a powerful strike aimed at the skies. In a flash, it seemed as if he wanted to shoot up into the heavens, intercepting the assailant.

However, in the blink of an eye, Ping Qiu suddenly pivoted, seizing the moment when Feng Yan's defenses were breached to tear through that rock-like barrier and raise his hand toward Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu for a deadly slash!

This sudden turn of events caught both Emperor Da Yue and Feng Yan completely off guard.

Ping Qiu had long since earned their trust.

And just before, he seemed to be exerting his full strength to fend off their assailant.

They had not anticipated that Ping Qiu himself was the true murderer!

"Ping Qiu!"

Emperor Da Yue couldn't contain his rage, but at that moment, he was utterly unable to turn back to rescue them.

Feng Yan's complexion reddened with fury, and he roared as he allowed the attacks from above to pour down on him. His body covered in rock-like armor, he prepared to use his own flesh to shield Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu from the assault, moving at the fastest speed in his life.

"I won't die! As long as I'm not dead, it's all worth it!"

Feng Yan thought to himself, gritting his teeth.

Li Xuan's lips twitched. Feng Yan, this old rascal, was really going all out to prove himself. But in front of himself, the respected master, the notion that his disciple would need someone to physically shield them from an attack, where would that leave his own face as a master?

He had been watching silently, wanting to see how Ping Qiu would cooperate with that person and whether the attack was meant for him. But the moment the person in the sky made a move, Li Xuan discerned that the target was not him.

It was Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu.

"This is interesting! Killing my disciple would certainly enrage me, thereby provoking me to strike back, sparking great chaos in the Divine Realm?"

Li Xuan instantly understood the enemy's intention.

Moreover, he was almost certain that Heavenly Slaughter Earth Shadow lurked within many major powers in the Divine Realm, some of which were occupied by prestigious and undying Heavenly Venerables.

To exterminate the Undying Heavenly Venerables would, to some extent, inevitably mean becoming the enemy of all the major powers.

"Hmph!"

A light snort from Li Xuan erupted like a clap of thunder, shaking the soul of the Immortal Heavenly Venerable.

Ping Qiu's attack had not yet reached Fang Hao and Su Lingxiu, and before Feng Yan could harness the attack from above to boost his own speed and shield them, a thunderous and supremely dominant Vajra Giant Hand suddenly emerged.

As the Vajra Giant Hand materialized, all attacks seemed to vanish like smoke, thunder rolling as if it could destroy worlds.

With a single grasp of the Vajra Giant Hand, Ping Qiu was caught within its grip. No matter how desperately he struggled or how madly he attacked, it was all futile.

Thunderous waves clashed, and the tyrannical Vajra Giant Hand snapped shut without so much as allowing Ping Qiu's scream of agony to escape before he was reduced to ashes.

The Vajra Giant Hand reached out into the sky, and the Undying Heavenly Venerable who had launched the attack was struck with utter horror. Despite exerting all his might and using some secret techniques, he couldn't escape at all.

"Dare you play tricks before me, you ant?"

An authoritative voice rang out, and with the tightening of the Vajra Giant Hand amidst thunderous rage, the attacker was obliterated.

All attacks, all ferocious powers of the Undying Heavenly Venerable, were smoothed out at that moment.

From the start of the ambush to the treachery of Ping Qiu, it had all happened in the blink of an eye. Moon Changming and the others hadn't even had the chance to react when everything calmed under the rumbling Vajra Giant Hand.

The aftermath of the Undying Heavenly Venerable battle had not even had time to spread before it was quieted.

It was as if nothing had happened, and the onslaught of the Undying Heavenly Venerable had been nothing more than an illusion!

But Emperor Da Yue and Feng Yan were profoundly shaken.

Indeed, their senior was unfathomably powerful.

"In front of a master like him, Ping Qiu's sneak attack is merely a joke. The master had already seen through everything, merely watching as if it were a play," Emperor Da Yue sighed to himself.

Feng Yan, however, was filled with remorse, "How dull of me! I failed to detect Ping Qiu as the true assassin. Otherwise, I might have at least used my body to block his attack. Such a chance to prove myself and earn merit wasted!"
