I was chased at the beginning, and I got the first quick sword

Chapter 543 The Heavenly Overlord Blade!

At this moment, everyone's attention was focused on Huangfu Changkong.

So much so that although everyone heard what the person who interrupted said, they didn't react for a moment.

Just thinking back a little, I'm completely taken aback...

Eating fish?

At a time like this, who would think of eating fish?

Still giving birth?
Wait... when did another person appear here?

In an instant, everyone, including Chu Qing, retreated.

In the blink of an eye, only a young man holding a fish remained in the room. The fish was indeed raw, and it looked like someone had taken a bite out of it.

The young man casually grabbed the fish, ignoring everyone's reactions, and looked at the fish in his hand with a troubled expression.

He looked up and glanced at the crowd:
"It was so hard to catch! Why don't we start a fire and roast it, then we can taste the difference between raw and cooked fish?"

The moment Dongfang Jinghong and Huangfu Changkong saw this person, their pupils contracted sharply, and they spoke in unison:
"Walk!!"

Chu Qing's heart skipped a beat. One of these two people was the Sword Emperor, and the other was the Blade Emperor. Their first reaction upon seeing this young man was to turn around and leave.
Looking across the world, there is no one else they can think of who could inspire such fear in them.

The Lord of the Evil Cult!!!

At this moment, thoughts raced through Chu Qing's mind.

That day, in front of Jue Tian Pass, after calculating how many evil cult masters he had killed, he knew that this person would come looking for him sooner or later.

In order to deal with this matter, he accepted the throne at Jue Tian Pass and spread the news, aiming to attract the attention of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors.

At the time, he was unaware of the "ascending to heaven in one step" ceremony, but he figured that the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors would not have agreed to his killing of the Ghost Emperor and the acquisition of the throne so quietly.

Who knows, they might send someone to cause trouble for them.

Regardless of their individual motives, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors should at least outwardly present a united front against the Heavenly Evil Cult.

Furthermore, since Shang Qiuyu has resolved the invasion of another gateway in the Southern Region, he will definitely come looking for me as well.

When the time comes, with the gathering of many of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, plus himself, even facing the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader, he might not be without the power to fight.

There's actually another story behind this...

Even if the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader is targeting the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, then no matter what news the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors hear, they will have no time to pay attention to Chu Qing's side.

But if they actually come, it means that the evil cult leader is not targeting them at the moment, and is very likely to take advantage of the free time to come and settle scores with them.

Things unfolded much as he had expected... Huangfu Changkong came to him and proposed a meteoric rise to power.

This was unexpected for Chu Qing, but considering that the Sword Emperor Dongfang Jinghong would also be there, he was naturally pleased.

His original idea was that he would definitely agree to the offer of a promotion, and after this, he could use an excuse to keep Dongfang Jinghong and Huangfu Changkong behind.

This is why he brought Mo Duxing along.

In Chu Qing's mind, peerless swordsmen are often aloof and proud. Ordinary reasons might not be enough to keep such a person around, but when it comes to his own son, even the most proud person should be swayed.

Unexpectedly, during this ascent to the heavens, his indestructible golden body was first shattered by Huangfu Changkong's move "Heaven's Will is Hard to Defy," and then he was ambushed by Emperor Wu Li Juechen.

Fortunately, Chu Qing himself possesses unparalleled martial arts skills. If they were to engage in a direct confrontation, even if Dongfang Jinghong and Huangfu Changkong were to join forces and fight him to the death, he might not be afraid.

Although Emperor Wu's punch was powerful, it only shook his meridians. With a slight activation of the [Heavenly Extreme Formless Divine Power], he was completely restored.

He then used the force of the blow to deliver it to Huangfu Changkong.

This also allowed Li Juechen to receive a slap from Shang Qiuyu.

Chu Qing was somewhat helpless about this person's departure, but knowing who it was was enough, as there would always be a chance to get revenge.

Although Chu Qing was surprised by Huangfu Changkong's subsequent words, he didn't really feel troubled. On the contrary, he felt that the contradiction came at just the right time... saving him the trouble of finding an excuse later.

Unexpectedly, the entanglement between him and Huangfu Changkong had not yet been resolved.

The leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult has actually arrived!?
That's just right!

But when he heard Dongfang Jinghong and Huangfu Changkong say "leave" without any hesitation, he sneered inwardly... Want to leave? Where do you think you're going!?

He had finally gathered two emperors and one sovereign, and with himself added to the force, he could finally have a good fight with this Heavenly Evil Cult Leader.

He had to deal with this battle no matter what, otherwise, how could the Jianghu sect in the Southern Region that he led dare to continue to develop and grow stronger?
This is an opportunity to demonstrate one's martial arts skills and abilities, so that the leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult will not dare to cause trouble easily. At the same time, it is also necessary to let the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors truly understand one's power, so as not to cause conflict with the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors before eliminating the Heavenly Evil Cult.

To quell external threats, we must first secure internal stability. Although it is impossible to completely eliminate internal instability factors at present, even a peace that is risky is better than a three-way war.

Therefore, he absolutely could not let Dongfang Jinghong and Huangfu Changkong leave at this moment.

But just as Chu Qing was about to take action, the leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult made his move first.

With a wave of his hand, Dongfang Jinghong and Huangfu Changkong, who had already retreated, immediately stopped. The Heavenly Evil Cult Leader said with a puzzled expression:

"Where are you going? Didn't I already say you want grilled fish? This fish is huge, enough for all of us together."

Dongfang Jinghong's face darkened, and a flash of sword light appeared behind him, as if severing some kind of restraint.

Huangfu Changkong, on the other hand, was constantly controlled by the Heavenly Evil Cult Master's internal force. Although his feet never left the ground, his body involuntarily moved towards the Heavenly Evil Cult Master.

He was not one to sit idly by and wait to die. He raised his index and middle fingers together, and sword marks appeared one after another.

The move used was none other than "Heavenly Will Following the Wind," a technique from the "Heavenly Will Sword Art."

The sword rises and moves with the wind, its momentum unrestrained and unconventional.

However, when the sword energy landed on the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader, it inexplicably vanished without a trace.

Just as Huangfu Changkong was about to fall into the hands of the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader, Dongfang Jinghong suddenly roared:
"Azure Heaven Overlord Blade!!"

Darkness enveloped the earth in an instant, dark clouds appeared overhead, and thunder rumbled down.

Everyone looked up and saw Dongfang Jinghong raise his Jinghong Blade and point it at the sky.

An invisible blade of energy pierced through the dark, heavy clouds, as the Jinghong Blade in Dongfang Jinghong's hand slashed down fiercely.

Then a massive blade of light, hundreds of feet long, stretched across the sky, slicing through the dark clouds and descending from the heavens.

Upon closer inspection, one can even see that the shape of this energy blade is exactly the same as the Jinghong Blade in his hand, only magnified and imposing by countless times.

The air blades, carrying clouds, rain, and thunder, seemed to be about to cleave the heavens in two!
The prestige and influence Chu Qing enjoys is unparalleled since he entered the martial arts world.

This is indeed incomparable to the [Drunken Madness Three Thousand Slashes] from before.

This also shows that Dongfang Jinghong only intended to test Chu Qing and had no intention of making things difficult for him; otherwise, he would never have held back such a deadly move.

The Heavenly Evil Cult Leader slightly raised his eyes and chuckled softly:
"It's that trick again..."

After saying that, he stretched out a finger and raised his hand to the sky.

Although Dongfang Jinghong's move, [Azure Sky Overlord Blade], appeared to come from the sky, it was actually based on the Jinghong Blade in his hand. Therefore, the moment the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader raised his hand, the blade's light had already landed on his head.

The force emanating from them caused the platform beneath their feet to crack and creak loudly.

The neat cracks, bypassing the location of the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader, cleaved the mountain in two, and the cracks even spread downwards from the platform...

It can be said that if the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader hadn't been blocking it, this strike could have easily cleaved the mountain in two.

But this very strike ultimately stopped at the fingertips of the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader.

Ding! ! !
A soft, inconspicuous sound rang out, yet it prevented Dongfang Jinghong from striking with his blade. A wisp of white mist rose above Dongfang Jinghong's head, clearly indicating that he had pushed his power to its limit.

The leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult remained calm, but unexpectedly, he was struck by a palm strike from behind.

The palm strike twisted his body, and he glanced down, slightly surprised.

"This is the [Nine Profound Divine Skill]? It is indeed extraordinary... This palm strike actually caused all my internal organs to detach from their original positions?"
"Unfortunately, you were a little short of killing me."

With a soft voice, the distortion vanished instantly, and the displaced internal organs returned to their original positions, each performing its function.

Shang Qiuyu let out a muffled groan, staggered, and vanished from the spot.

However, a loud bang came from the original location, and Shang Qiuyu's figure appeared two zhang away, but disappeared in a flash. Another loud bang came from where he reappeared.

In this way, Shang Qiuyu's figure flashed more than ten times in succession, leaving ten deep pits on the ground.

If you look closely inside the pits, you can find a fishbone stuck in each one.

Watching him wield Dongfang Jinghong's [Azure Heaven Overlord Blade] with a single finger, using his inner force to capture Huangfu Changkong, and then using the fish in his hand to hunt down Shang Qiuyu, it was as if a malignant tumor was clinging to his bones...

With every gesture, he manipulated two emperors and one king at will.

Just then, the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader suddenly uttered a "Huh," and the next moment, the [Azure Heaven Tyrant Blade] above his head vanished without a trace. Huangfu Changkong exhaled a breath of relief, finally free.

Shang Qiuyu was forced to the edge of the cliff, but she managed to steady herself.

The leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult changed his position, still holding the fish in his hand, and looked at Chu Qing with a strange expression:

"what are you up to?"

Chu Qing remained silent... He was going to kill someone.

The Heavenly Evil Cult Leader had already sensed something was amiss just as he was gathering his power.

The Heavenly Evil Cult Leader didn't seem to be listening to Chu Qing's answer, but instead said thoughtfully:

Actually, I've wanted to meet you for a long time.

"Since you appeared in the martial world, you have killed too many masters of my Heavenly Evil Cult."

"Those old codgers, the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, even if they were all tied together, they wouldn't have killed as many as you alone..."

Huangfu Changkong's face immediately darkened, while Dongfang Jinghong glanced at Chu Qing thoughtfully.

Although Dongfang Jinghong's attention was still focused on his blade at that moment, he knew that this strike would be no match for the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader before him.

Because Huangfu Changkong lost the initiative, his martial arts skills were suppressed by the Heavenly Evil Sect Leader, and he was unable to use any advanced techniques.

Shang Qiuyu was still too conservative. When he first faced the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader, although his palm strike was powerful, he did not use his full strength.

This led to him being suppressed by the leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult with fish bones...

Under these circumstances, the three of them were completely crushed and humiliated. The fact that the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader suddenly abandoned this favorable situation clearly meant that Chu Qing had some tricks up his sleeve.

However, the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader noticed this and released the three of them to avoid Chu Qing's methods.

"Could it be that we still underestimate him?"

Dongfang Jinghong's heart trembled slightly.

"So, you want to kill me?"

Chu Qing raised her eyes to meet the Heavenly Evil Cult Leader.

"There's no rush to kill him."

The leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult shook his head:
"Moreover, killing you would not make up for the loss of my Heavenly Evil Cult."

"But... I still understand the most basic principle of 'a life for a life, a debt for a debt.'"

"So before I kill you, I want to ask you first, do you want to pay with your life?"

"What difference does it make?"

"It's simple, I'll kill you, and then you'll be gone."

"If you want to pay with your life, you will have to give me your life in return, and from then on, you will follow my lead."

"Do whatever I tell you to do."

The Heavenly Evil Cult Leader said with a smile:

"In this way, you won't die, and my losses will be compensated."

"If you perform well in the future, I might even be able to put you in a high position, second only to me within the Heavenly Evil Cult."

"how?"

Dongfang Jinghong's expression changed, and disregarding everything else, he hurriedly said:

Don't agree to his request!
"The words of the Heavenly Evil Cult are not to be trusted. You, with your unparalleled martial arts skills, should not associate with these evil demons."

The Heavenly Evil Cult Leader, upon hearing this, did not show any anger, but simply looked at Dongfang Jinghong:

"What is a demon? I don't like hearing that."
"All I want is this world."

"After all, this world is dilapidated, dull, boring, and half-dead."

"I want the world to make some interesting sounds... whether joyful or painful. Wouldn't it be interesting if it could cry out in a more miserable way?"

"A colorful life is what makes life vibrant, and don't you like a world full of energy?"

"Where did this madman come from?"

Shang Qiuyu's face darkened:
"You want the people to scream in agony? Why don't you scream first?!"

"This person is the leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult."

Dongfang Jinghong gritted his teeth and said:

"His martial arts are unpredictable and extremely difficult to defeat... Our Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors fought against him many times before. If we had not had the advantage in numbers, we would have been defeated long ago."

"Kid, just how many members of the evil cult have you killed?"

"You actually made him come all the way to see you?"

"Not many..."

Chu Qing said:

"I did some accounting the other day. The Twelve Holy Kings, the Four Great Warlords, the Wenxin Pavilion... all in all, I only killed about twenty people..."

"Too hasty..."

Dongfang Jinghong was both amused and exasperated.

"If I had known you had such a record, why would you have bothered with your 'ascendancy' strategy?"

The leader of the Heavenly Evil Cult frowned:
"Hey! Did you hear what I just said?"

"Give me a straight answer. If you agree, you can come with me. If you don't agree, don't delay my grilling fish."
