Compared to confronting Elder Shu, he preferred facing the fire snake.
After all, the fire snake was unleashed by a Profound Realm, being caught by Elder Shu meant no return today.
Qin Ruan’s uncertain fate and the inevitable conflict between the main and side branches made pre-war killing inevitable.
Seeing Qin Guang suddenly charge towards the fire snake, Qin Mo smiled, though his shoulder felt numbingly painful, it didn’t affect his sword-drawing motion.
Once the sword was in hand.
In the next second, it turned into a white glint.
The Fire Snake Skill was exhausting inner Qi, so using Sword Control Skill to attack unexpectedly was necessary.
Perhaps the opportunity to complete the mission was there.
If successful, he’d be etched into history.
Body Refining Realm killing Profound Realm.
Moreover, it was a Body Refining 11th level that killed Profound.
Boom!
The fire snake explosively shattered.
Flames instantly engulfed Qin Guang, clothes, and hair turned to ashes, even the Purity Body revealed a sizzling roasting sound.
"This is indeed the Abnormal Vein Skill!"
"Unexpectedly, the hidden sect was so generous, allowing him to cultivate." He cursed inwardly, Qin Guang sighed in relief, glad it was Qin Mo performing.
If a Profound Realm was deploying it, he’d be dead today.
"Go!"
Enduring the pain of flame burning, Qin Guang rushed to flee.
Yet just then, a white glint suddenly burst into the flames, brushing past him—his full attention on escaping, he only dodged slightly as it swept by.
"What happened?"
His arm suddenly felt a new pain apart from the burning woe.
Much more intense than the burning pain.
Upon glancing down, Qin Guang screamed in agony.
"My hand..."
The flames dispersed.
Without his left hand, half his body stained with blood, half scorched yellow by the flames, Qin Guang was exposed to the crowd.
Bang!
Yet, after losing an arm, Qin Guang released unprecedented strength.
Bursting through the crowd, leaving droplets of blood still in midair, he fled.
"Don’t chase!"
Though intending to pursue, Qin Mo was stopped by Elder Shu.
At this moment, not only Elder Shu was deeply shocked, but the side branch was too.
However, they felt more fear.
They fled in all directions.
The idle curiosity of originally watching the main branch’s turmoil vanished instantly.
Before leaving, Qin Ruan remained lying there, no one bothered, whether alive or dead, no one cared.
Many side branches assumed Qin Ruan was already dead.
"My mission!"
Right now, Qin Mo felt weak at the knees, disheartened.
Using full force on both Fire Snake Skill and Sword Control Skill, his inner Qi was depleted entirely, falling into weakness.
He could only watch his hope of completing the mission slip away.
Yet, Elder Shu had no clue he wanted to chase Qin Guang for that reason, thinking Qin Mo was overzealous.
"Don’t chase, a nearing-death Profound Realm’s surge of power you can’t withstand. You severing a Profound Realm arm in the Body Refining Realm is already a feat!"
Elder Shu rushed forward to support Qin Mo.
Then watched the sword slowly return to his hand.
She fell silent.
The sword can fly?
Body Refining Realm can release Flame Vein Skill!
Which sect did this kid join after all?
