Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 291: Slaughter in All Directions

Two Seventh Rank female cultivators charged straight towards Xu Ping’an, intent on killing him.

The look they gave Xu Ping’an was as if they were staring at a dead man.

A Fifth Rank cultivator, even with combat power beyond his rank, could only be so strong.

However, they also knew that Xu Ping’an had killed Seventh Rank experts before, so they did not take him lightly.

Right from the start, both of them directly stimulated their Soul Power.

Two powerful bursts of Soul Power surged towards Xu Ping’an’s head.

For cultivators below the Seventh Rank, Soul Power was generally not much different from that of ordinary people.

For a Seventh Rank cultivator, even one who had just entered the rank, the impact of their Soul Power was as terrifying as a meteorite falling.

So in their eyes, Xu Ping’an was just a child wielding a weapon, one they could easily kill.

Yet when their Soul Attacks descended, Xu Ping’an’s form and even his Soul State remained unchanged.

"What?"

How could their Soul Attacks have no effect on Xu Ping’an?

Did Xu Ping’an also possess some kind of Soul Defense Immortal Artifact?

Xu Ping’an, seeing their surprised expressions, curled his lips into a cold smile.

He didn’t have any Soul Defense Immortal Artifacts, nor had he used the Thunder Devouring Sword.

But he did have the Soul Body of a Ninth Rank cultivator in a Soul State within him.

Indeed, it was Lei Shi.

At this moment, Lei Shi was sitting cross-legged in Xu Ping’an’s Niwan Palace, blocking the two Soul Attacks for Xu Ping’an.

"Kid, you’re bold indeed, daring to let me enter your Niwan Palace. The Niwan Palace is where one’s Soul Origin resides. Aren’t you afraid I’ll easily annihilate your soul or seize it from you?" Lei Shi asked in surprise.

"Senior wouldn’t do that, but of course, if senior did, the result would be both of us perishing together," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

Lei Shi was taken aback. Although he felt that Xu Ping’an would not be able to kill him, through their time together, he found the young man to be smarter than any fox.

So, if Xu Ping’an said so, it was indeed a possibility.

"Kid, I can only block for the duration of an incense stick; you must finish the battle within that time, or my Soul State will not hold," Lei Shi said.

"An incense stick’s time is enough," Xu Ping’an replied immediately.

The next moment, his figure vanished from the spot.

When he reappeared, Xu Ping’an was already in front of the Seventh Rank, Second Layer female cultivator.

"What? So fast!"

The female cultivator was alarmed, not expecting Xu Ping’an to be so swift.

This speed was on par with a mid-level Seventh Rank cultivator.

But the female cultivator was not panicked.

Although Xu Ping’an was fast, his attack was unlikely to pose a threat to her.

Moreover, Xu Ping’an hadn’t even used a weapon and was simply throwing a punch at her.

"Hmph, mere child’s play!" The Seventh Rank, Second Layer Realm female cultivator snorted and threw a punch as well.

True Yuan surged in her Seventh Rank, Second Layer Realm, with strength like a mountain collapsing.

A punch like this would undoubtedly be fatal for a Sixth Rank Peak cultivator.

Xu Ping’an definitely couldn’t block it.

"I don’t easily kill women, but you must die," Xu Ping’an said coldly.

After speaking, his arm suddenly swelled, and a black glove appeared in his hand.

As the fist swung, the force emitted a terrifying and shrill roar like a dragon’s howl.

One punch was thrown, as if the heavens were tearing apart and the earth was splitting.

"Not good!"

The female cultivator was shocked; she felt the scent of death on this punch.

She wanted to dodge, but it was already too late.

Xu Ping’an’s punch was too fast.

"Bang!"

Xu Ping’an’s fist smashed into the female cultivator’s chest.

In an instant, her entire body exploded, turning into a blur of blood and flesh, and she died on the spot.

"What?"

The other female cultivator, who was also trying to rush over and kill Xu Ping’an, was stunned upon witnessing this scene.

Everyone nearby, hearing the noise and looking over, was also shocked.

Xu Ping’an had actually killed a Seventh Rank cultivator with his bare hands?

How was that possible?

Even Qin Hanshuang was stunned, although she knew that Xu Ping’an might indeed be capable of killing a Seventh Rank cultivator.

But she did not expect it to happen so quickly?

How could a Seventh Rank Cultivator have fallen after just one exchange?

Is this still the Fifth Rank?

The middle-aged beautiful woman watching the battle from afar, as well as spies from all directions, were also stunned.

A punch?

Xu Ping’an hadn’t used any special techniques, but simply punched the Seventh Rank Cultivator to death with his bare hands?

What kind of terrifying strength is this?

"Boom!"

Just as everyone was shocked,

another loud explosion was heard.

Another Seventh Rank Cultivator, caught off guard for a moment, was seized by Xu Ping’an in his moment of weakness, and struck directly in the head with a fist, causing it to burst on the spot.

The second?

Everyone was struck dumb.

Just at the moment of engagement, two Seventh Rank Cultivators had been killed by Xu Ping’an with his bare hands.

What kind of terrifying combat power is this?

The Seventh Rank Cultivators who had come to kill Xu Ping’an were also dumbfounded at this moment.

This was completely different from what they had imagined.

In their eyes, the sacrificial lamb had suddenly turned into a ferocious wolf, and they were the pitiable sheep.

This was something they couldn’t accept for a while.

Then looking at Xu Ping’an again, he was now in a white robe, covered in fresh blood.

On the plains, the wild wind howled, and Xu Ping’an’s black hair danced in the wind. His fierce and ferocious gaze was enough to send chills down everyone’s spine.

Xu Ping’an didn’t look at the two dead bodies, nor did he look at the shocked expressions from all sides.

At this moment, he, using Thunder Imperial Nine Heavens, turned into a bolt of lightning and flew towards Qin Hanshuang.

Although it was just an exchange, Qin Hanshuang had already been injured.

A Seventh Rank Expert is still a Seventh Rank, and although he couldn’t break through Qin Hanshuang’s defenses, every one of his attacks left her with internal injuries.

However, Qin Hanshuang was extremely excited at this moment.

She had bet correctly.

Xu Ping’an had actually killed two Seventh Ranks.

Once Xu Ping’an killed another one, the situation could be completely reversed.

The Seventh Rank Fourth Realm Cultivator, seeing Xu Ping’an coming to kill him, also became extremely fierce.

He wasn’t like those two women; Xu Ping’an’s strength was indeed strong, but he had also discovered that Xu Ping’an excelled in close combat.

As long as he didn’t give him the chance to get close, there would be no problem.

Therefore, the moment Xu Ping’an came to kill, the war sabre in the hands of this Seventh Rank Cultivator immediately slashed out hundreds of times.

Each strike contained both Soul Power and True Yuan, extremely horrifying.

The sky was filled with sabre light; Xu Ping’an dodged frantically and for a time was completely suppressed.

Seeing this scene, the Seventh Rank Cultivator couldn’t help sneering.

As expected, this guy was only physically strong. Plus, his gloves were special. As long as he wasn’t given the chance to get close, this Xu Ping’an was still a lamb to be slaughtered.

Cultivators in the distance also quickly realized what was happening.

So that’s how it is, Xu Ping’an does have clear weaknesses.

As long as you don’t let him get close, he is ultimately weak.

The middle-aged beautiful woman who had been startled by Xu Ping’an’s combat power also began to sneer again.

It turns out it’s just physical strength.

With this, he’s still not to be feared.

"Xu Ping’an, even if you’ve killed two Seventh Ranks, today is still your day to die," the middle-aged beautiful woman laughed wildly.

The Seventh Rank Cultivator who launched the attack was also sneering incessantly.

This credit would be his.

"Puchi!"

However, just then, a flash of golden light suddenly passed by.

Unbelievably fast.

The entire body of the Seventh Rank Cultivator stiffened on the spot, as he looked down at his heart.

At this moment, a huge bloody hole had appeared there.

"No... it’s... impossible..."

The Seventh Rank man uttered a voice of unwillingness, but his figure fell, lifeless on the spot.

Silence surrounded the area, everyone was startled by this sudden turn of events.

Looking at Xu Ping’an again, he walked in the air, with nine Thunder Swords swirling around him.

With the flashing light of the Golden Thunder, Xu Ping’an appeared almost godly.
