Pursued by the Top Grade Saintess after Engagement Annulled

Chapter 621 - 617: Unbridled Slaughter Without Taboo

As Xia Feng narrowed his eyes to assess Zhang Baiyu, Zhang Baiyu was also carefully examining Xia Feng.

After a long while, Zhang Baiyu’s gaze deepened with disdain: "I thought you were someone with remarkable talents, seeing how even the ten Divine Maidens regard you differently."

"Now that I’ve seen you in person, it’s nothing special after all."

Xia Feng sneered, and the Heaven-Burying Sword in his hand flashed with a ray of sword light, straight towards Zhang Baiyu.

Zhang Baiyu didn’t even move as a golden light flashed over his body, forcibly resisting Xia Feng’s sword Qi.

Although the sword Qi was just a casual swing from Xia Feng, Zhang Baiyu’s ability to withstand it showed some degree of skill.

Xia Feng’s expression turned more serious, giving Zhang Baiyu a more scrutinizing look.

Over there, Zhang Baiyu was already motioning for the surrounding champions to encircle Xia Feng.

These champions, initially intimidated by Xia Feng’s reputation for his rampage outside, dared not step forward to confront him directly.

But after Zhang Baiyu withstood Xia Feng’s sword Qi, they inexplicably relaxed a bit, their gazes on Xia Feng turning more scrutinizing, even slightly dismissive.

A crowd surged around Xia Feng, appearing quite imposing, as if they intended to subdue and capture him.

Xia Feng sneered again, the Heaven-Burying Sword resonating with a long cry, and waves of cold air rapidly spread from him as the center, threatening to freeze the champions at the forefront.

Several champions from the Extreme Ice Divine Domain quickly stepped forward, jointly borrowing power to intercept Xia Feng’s attack, protecting the champions behind them.

Xia Feng was taken aback, not expecting anyone to withstand his Great Dao of Extreme Ice attack, even though it wasn’t launched with full force, their ability to block it was indeed curious.

Zhang Baiyu managed to withstand it due to the numerous defensive items on him, while these champions relied entirely on the divine power transmitted by their races’ champions to them.

Although they successfully fended off the blow, several were left looking pallid, the most affected nearly spitting blood.

Zhang Baiyu’s face darkened further: "Where are the people from the Celestial Talisman Divine Domain? Is the array not working?"

Though not his ancient array laid out nearby, with champions from the Celestial Talisman Divine Domain around, he could still have them set up an array to weaken Xia Feng’s strength.

Watching them stand in peculiar positions, their divine power beginning to interconnect, Xia Feng couldn’t resist a cold laugh.

"You must be thinking I’m dead, blatantly trying to set up an array, totally disrespecting me."

Xia Feng was highly skilled in the Great Dao of Celestial Talisman and had refined his skills through exploring array fragments at Pill Valley in the Celestial Pill Secret Realm, enabling him to instantly identify the array’s core.

A blue-white sword Qi slashed from the Heaven-Burying Sword, aiming straight at one of the champions.

Panicked, the champion evaded, inadvertently disrupting the nearly completed array, causing the others involved in setting it up to spit blood.

As the crowd turned their angry eyes towards him, wanting to explain, he opened his mouth only for a stream of blood to overflow.

The shocked champion belatedly realized his throat was hurting; touching it, he found a massive sword Qi hole.

He opened his mouth to speak, but more blood flowed out, and he collapsed to the ground, lifeless.

The surrounding champions were stunned; previously, despite provoking Xia Feng, even when extremely angered, he had not acted lethally, assuming he was wary of their status, not daring to attack.

Previously, Zhang Baiyu or the ten Divine Maidens had been the ones to act; they hadn’t witnessed deaths firsthand and didn’t take it to heart.

Seeing someone slain by Xia Feng with one stab, their hearts chilled.

Someone incredulously questioned: "You killed him, one favored by the Liu Race of the Celestial Talisman Divine Domain, and you just killed him like that."

Xia Feng sneered: "You intend to take my life, yet expect me to surrender without resistance?"

He laughed more mockingly at the champions involuntarily stepping back: "Surely you didn’t really think that would happen?"

"From outside the Celestial Pill Divine Domain, I retreated continuously, and now, pushed to this extent, you still expect me to bow down?"

"What a grand delusion!"

The killing intent on the Heaven-Burying Sword intensified, instilling fear in the surrounding champions.

Before they could react, Xia Feng had dashed into their midst, leaving over a dozen champions dead under the Heaven-Burying Sword’s swath.

Finally confronting death directly, the champions retreated in terror, avoiding pressuring Xia Feng as before.

But Xia Feng wouldn’t let them leave; like a haunting specter, he pursued, watching them with a cold, mocking glance.

Those who ran slower were spared initially, while those trying to escape quickly, even into the void, caught his attention. As soon as they moved, sword Qi shot out, binding them.

Those intent on escaping usually lacked strong cultivation, believing themselves unable to defeat Xia Feng, thus focused on fleeing.

Hit by Xia Feng’s sword Qi, several perished immediately, and those narrowly surviving found the Qi ravaging their bodies, determined to shatter their dantians.

Surveying the chaos, Zhang Baiyu couldn’t maintain his mild smile; his face grew darker than soot as he shouted.

"Enough!"

"What’s the point of such a mess!"

At his command, the panicked champions eerily stilled, those on the verge of fleeing trembling, refraining from escaping, allowing Xia Feng to kill another dozen before stopping.

Zhang Baiyu turned a cold gaze towards Xia Feng, his wariness evident to all.

"I underestimated you. Even without the Divine Maidens, you have such courage and strength."

Xia Feng let out a cold laugh, ignoring the remark, instead playfully retorting: "Oh?"

"Now you acknowledge me, but I still don’t know what class of person you are."

He eyed Zhang Baiyu from head to toe, coldly asserting: "The Infinite Divine Domain can’t produce a Divine Son like you, right?"
