c1090: 681: Elder Xing, King Zhenwu, Identities Revealed

"Since they have made a mistake, fellow Daoist, if you trust this old man, why not hand them over to our Holy Alliance to be dealt with? We will certainly punish them severely."

"Handled by you?" Lu Qing raised an eyebrow, "Will you execute them?"

"You’re joking, fellow Daoist." Elder Xing shook his head, "They have erred and offended you, but their crime is not deserving of death. However, I will ensure they compensate you."

"Compensation, is it?" Lu Qing laughed lightly, stroking Little Li’s fur, "Elder, do you know that to me, this spiritual pet is truly family?

These two are Golden Core late-stage experts. Just now, they joined forces to wield a magical treasure, and the blow they struck was quite powerful.

If I hadn’t arrived in time, my spiritual pet might have been gravely injured or worse.

Elder, if your family was attacked without cause, nearly killed, what would you do?"

Elder Xing was silent; he could hear the murderous intent in Lu Qing’s tone.

The other party was resolute, unwilling to spare these two Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciples.

Yet after a moment of silence, he still spoke, "If it were me, I would still choose to hand them over to the Holy Alliance."

"It seems that you and I, Elder, cannot reach an agreement." Lu Qing shook his head and said, "In my dealings, I always repay kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge. Since these two have offended me, there is no reason for me to let someone else punish them."

After speaking, Lu Qing’s mind stirred, and the suppressive force on the two Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciples suddenly intensified.

Elder Xing’s expression changed slightly as he felt this, and his Primordial Spirit’s fluctuations, strengthened on the two Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciples, similarly intensified rapidly.

However, he was astonished to discover that his strengthening was unable to match the opponent’s.

Bang!

In just an instant, there was a thunderous sound, and Elder Xing’s power was shattered.

Soon after, under the tremendously powerful suppressive force wielded by Lu Qing, the two Ten Thousand Beasts Sect disciples couldn’t even utter a cry before they were turned into blood mist, dead on the spot.

"Fellow Daoist, you!"

Witnessing the two clouds of blood mist, Elder Xing was both shocked and furious.

He was naturally shocked by the unexpected strength of Lu Qing’s suppressive force, capable of breaking his Taoist skill.

Furious because, as an elder of the Holy Alliance’s Punishment Hall, a dignified Four Tribulation Primordial Spirit,

this person showed no respect, killing the ones he intended to protect right in front of his eyes.

"Elder, those who offended me have already been punished by my own hands. Is there anything else you wish to say?" Lu Qing said calmly.

Elder Xing’s expression turned grim as he glared tightly at Lu Qing, a surge of murderous intent brewing within him.

Lu Qing sensed this murderous intent but only smiled.

"It seems the Elder is not as selfless as he claims. I merely punished two wicked individuals, and you’ve already developed a killing intent. Is it possible that I have already committed a crime worthy of death in the eyes of your Holy Alliance?

Or have you finally decided not to pretend anymore?"

"What do you mean?" Elder Xing paused.

The purple-robed, high-crowned middle-aged man and other Primordial Spirit Realm individuals behind him also showed slight changes in expression.

"Ha ha, do you all truly think I’m oblivious, unable to sense your exchange through sound transmission earlier? You’ve long identified my identity through Little Li, haven’t you?"

"Therefore, you are indeed the evil demon who committed a great crime years ago on the Tianshu Divine Mountain, harming multiple Primordial Spirit Great Powers?"

Elder Xing’s face turned completely cold.

"An evil demon, is it?" Lu Qing mouthed the term before laughing and saying, "That’s right, I am indeed the ’evil demon’ wanted by your Holy Alliance back then."

With these words, all the Human Race Primordial Spirit Great Powers were taken aback.

Despite having already confirmed through various clues that the mysterious young man before them was the ’evil demon’ who committed the monstrous crime on Tianshu Divine Mountain years ago,

they couldn’t help but be surprised when Lu Qing genuinely admitted to it.

They originally thought the other party would at least try to deny or argue, yet he admitted it so straightforwardly.

At the same time, some of their doubts were answered.

Rumor had it, the ’evil demon’ who slaughtered multiple Primordial Spirit Great Powers on Tianshu Divine Mountain many years ago was genuinely of the Golden Core Realm.

When this matter was reported to the Holy Alliance, most elders and elders were skeptical.

After all, a Golden Core against a Primordial Spirit is unbelievable, let alone a Golden Core Realm individual single-handedly slaying multiple Primordial Spirit Great Powers head-to-head.

This kind of thing is as absurd as an ant suddenly slaughtering a dragon.

Some elders even suspected that those surviving Primordial Spirits might have exaggerated, deliberately magnifying the ’evil demon’s’ power to cover their incompetence.

However, later, through extensive investigations, the Holy Alliance obtained an astonishing result.

What those Primordial Spirit Realms said seemed highly likely to be true.

That ’evil demon’, their true realm, might truly be the Golden Core Realm!

Precisely for this reason, the Holy Alliance ultimately decided to issue a kill order for that ’evil demon’.

First, because this ’evil demon’ had enormous potential and seemed to harbor deep hostility towards their Human Race forces, posing a great threat.

Second, because there were those in the Holy Alliance who wanted to know why a Golden Core Realm individual possessed such immense strength.

Looking back now, no wonder the previous Heavenly Tribulation was so strong, clearly a Primordial Spirit Tribulation, yet more terrifying than the Primordial Spirit Realm of seasoned Primordials.
