Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled-Chapter 434 - 430: Seven Killed, A Crazy Idea

Xia Feng narrowed his eyes, picking up on the implications behind Li Qingxue’s words.

These people weren’t targeting Xia Feng at all; they were after Li Qingxue.

Li Qingyu didn’t know that her cultivation had already made a leap forward, still thinking that Li Qingxue was just a Profound Tier First Layer Martial God.

These Celestial Tier Martial Gods were indeed capable of bypassing Xia Feng’s defense to directly take down Li Qingxue.

And as long as Li Qingxue died, even if Xia Feng was favored by the Divine King, he would surely face backlash, possibly even losing his life.

Unfortunately for them, their information was outdated; no one knew that Li Qingxue was already a Celestial Tier Ninth Layer Martial God.

She gripped her long sword tightly, a hint of eager anticipation on her face: "I haven’t had a real fight since advancing to this realm."

"It’s just right that they’ve come to me, so I can practice my swordsmanship."

Xia Feng still looked a bit worried, but Xia Tianming, standing nearby, spoke up: "I’ll go with my granddaughter, you can provide support from the back."

Xia Feng wanted to say more, but didn’t expect the people across from them to react oddly upon hearing Xia Tianming call Li Qingxue his granddaughter-in-law.

"Ha, your family of toads actually desires the swan’s meat, daring to call the Divine Maiden your granddaughter-in-law?"

"Exactly, look at yourselves, how can you be so audacious?"

"Who gave you the courage?"

Just a moment ago, these people were intent on killing Li Qingxue, and now they seemed to have changed their minds. 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"Brothers, let’s kill these two first, and then we’ll have some fun with this Divine Maiden."

"Whoever gets lucky might become the Divine Maiden’s consort afterward, and no longer need to do these dirty jobs."

Li Qingxue was so enraged that her hand shook holding her sword, her face full of fury, ready to rush forward and kill them all.

But Xia Feng grabbed her wrist, his voice cold enough to chill: "No need to trouble yourself, I’ll handle it myself."

"I wanted to let you practice, but these people... they are not worthy of soiling your hands."

His expression was icy, and with the Heaven-Burying Sword, countless thrusts were unleashed in the blink of an eye, making it impossible to tell how many strikes he had made.

Xia Feng held the Heaven-Burying Sword, his expression still cold.

The people opposite were silent for a while, finally, someone couldn’t help but sneer.

"Ha ha, you talk so big, I thought you were so impressive."

"Right, we heard you beat many loose cultivators in the arena, we thought you were strong, but it turns out you’re just a fancy facade."

"Hey, it’s not his fault, we are noble family disciples raised beside the Goddess Qingyu, how can we be compared to those loose cultivators?"

"Kid, since you’ve finished, it’s my turn to..."

Before he could finish, he felt an inexplicable pain in his neck, and looked down strangely at his body.

Then, as he lowered his head, it detached entirely, rolling several rounds on the ground before stopping, his expression still carrying a hint of confusion, as if he didn’t understand how he died like that.

The surroundings fell silent, followed by someone letting out a piercing scream.

The person who made the crude remark moments ago was suddenly riddled with countless wounds, even his tongue was shredded by sword qi.

The seven most arrogant individuals received the worst wounds and died immediately.

Those who stood farther back or didn’t open their mouths to mock remained lightly injured but dared not linger around.

As the people surrounding the entrance fled in panic, Xia Feng didn’t move, instead, he regarded the corpses, a pensive expression crossing his face.

Li Qingxue stepped forward, intending to chase them, but Xia Feng shook his head, casting a subtle glance at the sky.

He spoke softly: "Just got here, kill less for now; if they provoke us later, then we continue."

"For now, help me gather the tokens off these people."

Li Qingxue was a bit puzzled: "These tokens become invalid after this round, needing to be remade by mother, so even if we sell them, they’re not worth much."

Xia Feng smiled but didn’t explain: "Help me gather them first."

Li Qingxue didn’t question further, moving to the bodies to collect the tokens.

She knew Xia Feng’s nature was always to eliminate any roots, so sparing the lives of simply a few harsh-tongued individuals was giving face to Li Qingxue’s mother.

Yet, the Celestial Sword Divine King observing from afar didn’t see it that way; she felt Xia Feng was overly aggressive.

However, her brows relaxed, as she recollected Xia Feng’s earlier sword strike.

This young man’s mastery over the Sword Dao was truly strong; even at Xia Feng’s age, the Celestial Sword Divine King hadn’t reached this level of cultivation and understanding.

She let out a soft sigh, her fingers unconsciously caressing her sword.

Has she really grown old, really made mistakes?

Xia Feng remained unaware of the happenings outside, but even if he knew, he’d probably just scoff.

Too late a realization holds less value than grass, trying to nurture the child after they’ve lost faith.

Considering Li Qingxue’s temperament, even the Celestial Sword Divine King’s regret would need significant effort to warm her heart again.

There were a total of seven tokens; after Xia Feng gathered them, he saw the bodies destroyed by sword qi from the void.

He gasped; even though they were just corpses, they were Celestial Tier Martial God corpses, yet they were easily disposed of, proving the Holy Sword Divine Domain remained perilous.

The three of them, along with the Sword Spirit, scanned their surroundings, and Xia Feng looked towards a place with Spiritual Power fluctuations, suggesting: "Let’s head in this direction to see."

Li Qingxue looked puzzled: "There’s someone there; are we still going after them?"

"Conflict might arise, you know."

"Moreover, why are you collecting these tokens?"

Xia Feng didn’t answer; in his mind, a crazy idea formed: if these tokens could be used in this Secret Realm, could he find a way to bring all the ladies inside?

Even though the idea seemed impossible, he wanted to try for the sake of his wild thought.

The most crucial thing now was the attention from above.

Xia Feng turned thoughtfully toward Li Qingxue: "In past Holy Sword Secret Realm trials, did the Celestial Sword Divine King watch the entirety?"
