Lu Wu’s indifferent attitude was a blatant slap in Wu Liang’s face.
I already regarded you as the greatest enemy of my life, yet you’re over there eating melon seeds and watching the show?
Her calm composure made him look like nothing more than a clown.
“You’re humiliating me. Die!”
Unable to endure it any longer, Wu Liang decided to strike with all his might. His sword flashed, and heaven and earth seemed to dim.
“It hit! It hit him!”
Lu Wu cheered loudly.
What hit Wu Liang’s face was Grandpa Li’s fist.
Facing Wu Liang’s blade, Grandpa Li merely threw out an ordinary-looking punch. The seemingly light punch was even faster than the sword light.
The moment it reached Wu Liang, it landed squarely on target.
My fist merely turns a little red from touching you, while your head becomes a mix of red and white.
With that punch, Grandpa Li established both his prestige and his spirit.
“Bravo!”
Spitting out a melon-seed shell, Lu Wu applauded enthusiastically.
Sure enough, people with cheats were just different.
Instant kill.
“How… how is this possible?”
Half of Wu Liang’s head was gone. The sword in his hand had long since fallen to the ground. His remaining eye bulged bloodshot, crimson tears streaming from its corner.
He stared blankly at Grandpa Li.
He couldn’t understand how this old man, who looked completely ordinary, had managed to kill him with a single punch.
But as life rapidly drained away, his mind ceased functioning as well.
The last glimmer faded from his pupil, and his eye turned dull and gray.
I regret it…
Thud!
His corpse collapsed to the ground, never to rise again.
Grandpa Li flicked his sleeve, brushing away a bit of dust and frost, then walked over to Lu Wu, grabbed a handful of melon seeds, and started crunching away.
As for the remaining battles, those could be left to the disciples of the Divine Spear Sect and the beasts.
The beasts had come precisely to show off their might.
With hundreds of beasts charging forward, the remnants of the Fallen Immortal Society were nothing more than a rabble after losing their leader.
The combined assault of humans and beasts quickly crushed them.
Some refused to die quietly and instead turned their attacks toward Lu Wu.
They had figured it out—the beasts and that old man all revolved around Lu Wu. If they could capture her, they might still have a chance to survive.
“Grab her!”
A cultist with a brain but using it in all the wrong ways shouted as he charged toward Lu Wu.
A nice shout.
Just don’t do it again.
Mistaken for an easy target, Lu Wu curled her finger.
“I Have a Sword” appeared once more.
Where the sword light passed, it pierced the skies like a rainbow, taking heads with it.
She couldn’t beat Wu Liang, but dealing with these cannon fodder enemies was effortless.
Besides, she had guardian beasts.
Above her, Huo Huo swooped lower and spat out a mouthful of phoenix fire, delivering fiery judgment upon the cultists foolish enough to attack Lu Wu.
The golden-red flames that burned everything illuminated the entire battlefield.
The power was terrifying.
Even Gou Aotian rushed in and bit several cultists to vent his anger.
How dare you bully my master? I’ll bite you to death!
With the advantage secured, the Divine Spear Sect disciples fought with overwhelming enthusiasm. They launched relentless counterattacks while shouting curses at the top of their lungs.
“Charge! Capture the traitors and save our sect!”
Awoooo! Awoooo!
The cries of humans and beasts mixed together into a bizarre cacophony that echoed through the skies and carried all the way into the Divine Spear Sect.
Beast roars and strange howls filled the air, making Elder Jiang and the others tremble with anxiety.
“Could those spies be conducting some evil ritual outside?”
Elder Dan tugged at his beard anxiously, unable to do anything.
“Outrageous! Absolutely outrageous!”
Elder Jiang slammed the table.
The Sect Master, seated at the head of the table, looked mournfully at yet another crack spreading across its surface and gently stroked it.
This table was made from five-hundred-year spiritual wood.
Warm in winter, cool in summer.
Perfect for sleeping.
If Elder Jiang kept smashing it, where was he supposed to sleep when his wife kicked him out of the house in the future?
“No. We can’t just sit here and wait. We must counterattack.”
“That’s right! Even if both sides suffer, we won’t let those cultists succeed.”
Everyone voiced their determination.
Morale soared.
They were cultivators. If they cowered in the face of danger, their path of cultivation wouldn’t go far anyway.
“I seek neither victory nor defeat—only clarity of heart.”
The words rang out powerfully.
Elder Jiang stopped holding back. Gathering the sect’s forces, he led everyone toward the grand formation.
“In a moment, I’ll break the formation by force. Once we’re out, attack without restraint. Spare no one.”
His icy gaze fixed on the barrier. Killing intent wrapped around him as his aura surged higher and higher.
I, Elder Jiang, am activating my ultimate move!
When his spell shot into the sky and collided with the formation, ripples spread outward.
Crack.
Crack.
Something seemed to be breaking.
It was the mountain-protecting formation.
Cracks spread across it, and in the blink of an eye, the formation shattered into fragments and disappeared.
Elder Jiang: ???
Am I really this powerful now?
“Elder Jiang is mighty!”
His strike greatly boosted the sect’s morale.
“Everyone, charge with me!”
Someone shouted impatiently and rushed forward.
Kill!
…Huh?
Why are there allies outside?
Everyone had assumed that traitors and cultists were waiting beyond the barrier, so none of them held back.
Oh no.
They couldn’t stop their attacks anymore.
Everyone froze.
The sky was already covered by countless spells, and it was far too late to cancel them.
Standing within the bombardment zone, Lu Wu looked at the senior sister who had opened the mountain-protecting formation with a strange expression.
So this is how the Divine Spear Sect welcomes reinforcements?
Starting with a nuclear bombardment right to the face?
Friendly fire?
Lu Wu suddenly felt like a clown.
“Not good!”
Elder Jiang and the others finally noticed Lu Wu.
Seeing countless spells about to bombard her, Elder Jiang’s face turned pale.
Blinding light erupted.
A deafening explosion shook the heavens.
After the dust settled, Elder Jiang’s eyes lost all life.
“My Boss Lu! You died such a miserable death!”
He burst into tears.
Why hadn’t he looked before attacking?
Some of those spells had been his own!
Not only him—even Elder Dan and the Sect Master had joined in, hoping to catch the cultists off guard.
Instead, they’d supposedly killed Boss Lu.
“Boss Lu, I’ve failed you.”
The Sect Master was on the verge of tears.
His spicy rabbit heads…
Gone.
Even at Boss Lu’s funeral, he wouldn’t be able to offer spicy rabbit heads to comfort her spirit in heaven.
“Wait. Who exactly are you all mourning for?”
Lu Wu waved away the smoke and frowned at the group of long faces.
She wasn’t dead yet.
Why were they already preparing the funeral banquet?
After all, ever since her cheat had come online, it had never gone offline.
A little explosion?
Small matter.
Behind Lu Wu, Grandpa Li stood with his hands behind his back, smiling as he watched her show off.
My precious granddaughter is adorable.
“Boss Lu, you’re not dead?”
Elder Jiang cried out in shock upon seeing her standing there alive and well.
“You’re the one who’s dead.”
What a rude old man.
When other protagonists arrived to save people, they were welcomed with flowers and applause.
When she arrived to save people, these guys immediately set out bowls and prepared for the funeral feast.
What discrimination!
Had their consciences been eaten by dogs?
Gou Aotian: Trash food. Ptooey! 🐶
