Legend of the Great Sage

him.
I’ll cover you.”

“Just what’s so great about him?” Gu Yanying sighed with a smile.
“You don’t have to worry for now.
That Ruan Yaozhu from earlier is right beside him.
She probably won’t just stand by…”

Xiao An lowered her head and clutched her wrist even more firmly.
The prayer beads rubbed and clashed together, making them creak.

Gu Yanying was slightly surprised.
“Sorry.”

Even the badge on Li Qingshan’s chest gradually began to melt.
Ruan Yaozhu rode over on the reluctant nine-coloured deer and arrived before him, blocking Li Liehuo’s scorching, violent aura.

“Senior brother, aren’t you just harassing him at this rate, just because you’re stronger?”

Li Liehuo directly ignored Ruan Yaozhu, staring at Li Qingshan like a vicious beast.
“Is this who you’re relying on?”

Li Qingshan smiled.
“You still haven’t answered my question, senior brother.
If I’m not worthy, who’s worthy? If it doesn’t belong to me, who does it belong to then? Is it you?”

“Do you really think I won’t kill you?” Li Liehuo said furiously.
Even Ruan Yaozhu felt a little hot.
The nine-coloured deer’s coral-like antlers gave off a nine-coloured glow, fending off the heat desperately.

“I’ve heard something like that just recently.”

“Was it Chao Tianjiao? The things she might care about doesn’t mean I might care about.
If I want to kill you, no one can protect you today!” Li Liehuo directly made his way down from the altar.

“I don’t need anyone’s protection.” Li Qingshan made his way around Ruan Yaozhu and asked with a sneer, “Heh, I wonder how many moves you need to kill me with your cultivation, first senior brother?”

“Do you want to try it?” Li Liehuo asked harshly.

“I want to try it!” Li Qingshan grinned viciously.

“A punch! If you can withstand a punch from me.
I’ll spare your life!”

“If you can’t kill me with a punch, then you better write your ‘Li’ backwards.
I’m embarrassed to share the same…”

Before he could say “surname”, Li Liehuo’s fist erupted like a volcano, slamming against Li Qingshan’s body violently.

In reality, that was all there was to the power behind a volcanic eruption.
A volcanic eruption might even pale in comparison to that.

Even though Li Qingshan had already gathered all of his focus, it was still too fast for him to respond.
Even when he had already gathered all of his strength, he only lasted for a split second.
Li Liehuo sent all of his power into his body, erupting like a volcano within him.

Boom!

Li Qingshan slammed through the black stone tower and was thrown into the horizon.

“Li Liehuo!” Ruan Yaozhu glared at Li Liehuo.
Everything had happened far too quickly.
She never expected him to actually strike without any hesitation at all.

“Don’t worry, he’s not dead.
I’m just teaching him a lesson.”

As if his anger had vanished, Li Liehuo glanced at his fist.
He was indeed out to kill, and he had not held back with his punch.
Even weaker Demon Sovereigns might not have been able to endure it, but his aura did not actually vanish.

He sure was a strange kid.
If he had enough time to grow and reach the position of direct disciple, he could definitely found an army under his own name, and he might even be able to contend for the position of first senior brother.
However, he would have to survive first.
Even if he managed to survive after a punch from him, he would be heavily injured.

“Heal him up.
I’ll be waiting for him on the battlefield!”

He glanced at Ruan Yaozhu and Ge Xing and stepped into the teleportation formation again, vanishing with the twisted gate of light.

Ruan Yaozhu patted the nine-coloured deer and rushed off in the direction where Li Qingshan had fallen.

“What’re you all gathering here for? Scatter, scattered!”

Ge Xing waved his hand unhappily.
This gamble would be his win, but he was unable to cheer up.
Fearless warriors received respect wherever they went, especially when it was in the army barracks, yet he would be dying pointless over a gamble now.

However, he felt like he was being watched earlier.
Was that merely an illusion?

Gu Yanying and Xiao An had already vanished from the bridge where they could see the Department of Military Provisions in the distance.
