Rise of the Sword Son-in-Law

Chapter 489 Shocking Move

"Is it him?" The woman in the black dress was stunned and looked at Xu Ping’an who walked past her with a face full of surprise.

"What does he think he’s doing? Is he looking for death?" Cao Yuqing covered her chest and frowned as she spoke.

Chen Yunshi and the others also turned their gaze to Xu Ping’an, eyes filled with bewilderment.

Not only them, but the three cultivators from the Heavenly Moon Sect were also looking at Xu Ping’an.

"Cultivator?" The young man asked in confusion.

"No, there is no fluctuation of True Yuan on him," the middle-aged man shook his head.

"He dares to interfere and talk big, teaching us from the Heavenly Moon Sect a lesson, without even being a cultivator?" The young man was immediately filled with disdain.

The young woman also looked at Xu Ping’an, her eyes radiating intense disgust.

"Where did this stinking mortal come from, daring to teach me a lesson?" the young woman said angrily.

"Come back, don’t go courting death," the woman in the black dress called out immediately.

Xu Ping’an, however, turned a deaf ear to the words of the woman in the black dress.

He looked at the young woman with a coldness in his eyes, "So young and not bad looking, but with such a foul mouth."

"You’re courting death," the young woman was furious, her strong Soul Power surged towards Xu Ping’an, intending to tear him apart.

The onlookers sighed at the sight.

This kid must be out of his mind, to anger this woman like that, isn’t this suicidal?

"Stop it right now," the black-dressed woman said urgently, wanting to make a move.

But she was held back by Cao Yuqing, "It’s no use, for a Seventh Rank Cultivator, you and I can’t stop her."

Upon hearing this, the woman in the black dress clenched her fists, extremely unwilling.

The young woman, however, sneered as if she could see the scene of Xu Ping’an being torn in half by her Soul Power.

However, what happened next left everyone dumbfounded.

"Slap!"

A crisp and clear sound rang out.

Following that, the young woman was sent flying, crashing into a large boulder in the distance and causing it to shatter upon impact.

And the Soul Power she had used to attack Xu Ping’an was crushed by an invisible force.

The young man and the middle-aged man were both startled and looked around warily.

Everyone else was dumbstruck as well.

What happened?

Why was the woman from the Heavenly Moon Sect the one sent flying?

The woman in the black dress was stunned, Cao Yuqing was stunned as well.

"Who? Who is secretly making a move?" The young woman spat out blood, straightened her body, and shouted at the sky around her.

"Is there a hidden senior among us?" The woman in the black dress showed a puzzled expression.

Cao Yuqing’s eyes lit up and immediately spoke to the void, "Senior, I am an elder from the Mysterious Snow Sect, and this is the Commandery Princess from Lieyang Mansion, we beg for your help, the Mysterious Snow Sect and Lieyang Mansion will surely offer a grand reward."

The three cultivators from the Heavenly Moon Sect all frowned deeply.

"Who’s lurking in hiding? This is a matter for our Heavenly Moon Sect, please refrain from interfering," the elder also spoke, releasing his Soul Power, seemingly in an attempt to find the hidden person.

However, after his words fell, there was no response.

The elder’s Soul Power failed to find any trace of someone there.

Xu Ping’an, seeing everyone looking at the sky, shook his head helplessly.

What senior?

I’m standing right before you, why are you looking at the sky?

"Ahem, don’t bother looking, I’m right in front of you," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

As soon as these words came out, everyone turned their gaze back to Xu Ping’an.

However, they did not believe what Xu Ping’an said.

"As if someone like you could hurt me, laughable," the young woman said with contempt.

Xu Ping’an was speechless.

I’ve already slapped you, and that’s not hurting you?

"Since you don’t believe you could, maybe you would like to try again," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

"You’re seeking your own demise!" The woman was furious.

This time, she did not use Soul Power but instead aimed a palm strike at Xu Ping’an.

She wanted to crush this ignorant fool with her own hands.

Xu Ping’an looked at the woman charging at him and sneered.

The next moment, a powerful burst of Soul Power erupted, enveloping the woman.

The woman was instantly immobilized.

"No... impossible?" The young woman was shocked and dismayed.

No matter how she exerted her strength, she was unable to break free from Xu Ping’an’s Soul Power.

In front of Xu Ping’an, her power seemed to be utterly ineffective.

"You... You’re an Eighth Rank Cultivator?" the young woman exclaimed in disbelief as she felt the overwhelming Soul Power.

At these words, both the young man and the middle-aged man looked at Xu Ping’an with faces filled with shock.

An Eighth Rank Cultivator?

The woman in the black dress was stunned.

Cao Yuqing was also stunned.

How could this be possible?

This young man was clearly only around eighteen years old, how could he possibly be an Eighth Rank Cultivator?

Moreover, there was clearly no trace of True Yuan fluctuation within his body.

Chen Yunshi was also stunned.

Xu Ping’an was actually an Eighth Rank Cultivator?

"An Eighth Rank Cultivator? Consider it so," Xu Ping’an responded indifferently.

Upon hearing Xu Ping’an’s answer, all the cultivators present were shock beyond measure.

Such a young Eighth Rank Cultivator?

"Impossible, absolutely impossible," the young woman was already finding it hard to believe.

"Believe it or not doesn’t matter anymore. You struck with such deadly force, today you must die, and now I will let you taste what it’s like to be torn apart by Soul Power," Xu Ping’an said with a smile.

After he spoke, his Soul Power burst forth, and the young woman instantly felt a surge of intense pain.

Two streams of Soul Power were pulling at her body, as if trying to rip her in half.

"Stop!"

The young man immediately shouted furiously, thrusting a spear toward Xu Ping’an.

Xu Ping’an didn’t even look back as his Soul Power erupted.

In an instant, he blocked the young man’s attack, and at the same time, bound the young man in midair.

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone involuntarily took a sharp breath.

Was Xu Ping’an truly an Eighth Rank Cultivator?

To effortlessly block the Seventh Rank Peak young man’s attack, if not an Eighth Rank Cultivator, what was he?

"He’s actually an Eighth Rank Cultivator, and I had previously chased him out of the carriage?" Cao Yuqing stood baffled.

The woman in the black dress also had a complex expression on her face.

"No!"

The woman let out an absolutely mournful scream.

Then, under the assault of a terrifying force, she was directly torn in half.

Seeing this scene, everyone was extremely shocked.

A Seventh Rank Cultivator, actually torn in half by someone?

This young man was evidently not a kind-hearted individual.

Cao Yuqing’s scalp tingled even more.

"Do you truly wish to be enemies with our Heavenly Moon Sect?" the elder asked coldly.

"So what if I do?" Xu Ping’an glanced at the elder and said indifferently.

The elder’s expression grew serious, his eyes reflecting a sense of caution.

Xu Ping’an didn’t bother with words, as his Soul Power instantly transformed into a streak of sword light, directly cleaving the young man in half.

A Seventh Rank Peak, just like that, was killed.

The woman in the black dress and the others were thoroughly dumbfounded.

Xu Ping’an’s decisive killing even made Chen Yunshi and the others feel the chill on their scalps.

"This youth is tricky and not easy to deal with, better retreat first," the elder murmured to himself.

The next moment, he attempted to transform into a streak of light and flee.

"Thinking of leaving?" Xu Ping’an waved his hand, and the Blade Mantis appeared in front of him.

As soon as the Blade Mantis appeared, it instantly turned into a streak of golden light, and in the blink of an eye, it returned to Xu Ping’an’s side.

The Blade Mantis spit out the elder’s head onto the ground.

"A Demon Beast?"

In an instant, everyone’s scalp tingled.

An Eighth Rank Strongman, just like that, killed in a moment.

What level was this Demon Beast?

Cao Yuqing’s face was also one of stupefaction as he looked at Xu Ping’an, his eyes filled with endless fear.

The woman in the black dress was also extremely shocked and unsure how to express her thoughts.
