Whoosh.
The old man sprang into action, his hat fluttering behind him as he moved at top speed.
Jinhuang Yi’s white brows furrowed, and his eyes turned cold. He transformed into a blur and swung his right hand to slap Xu Jingming’s face.
...
Being lectured by others was the thing he loathed most after living for so long.
“You’re quite the talker!” Jinhuang Yi ruthlessly slapped at him.
Slap!
A deafening sound echoed through the air.
Jinhuang Yi’s face contorted as he was sent flying by the slap, but Xu Jingming’s right hand didn’t stop there.
Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa! Pa!
In a split second, Jinhuang Yi was propelled backwards and slapped 18 times in a row.
Despite his tough muscles and hardened skull from years of cultivation, his skull was still deformed. The corners of his eyes were lacerated, and his face was covered in blood.
As he soared through the air, he collided with the street’s trees and foliage. He struggled to maintain his balance, carving two deep grooves into the ground before finally stabilizing himself after being hurled dozens of meters.
His face was disfigured and bloody, and the veins on his body bulged as he stared at Xu Jingming in disbelief.
Xu Jingming examined his right hand and commented softly, “You’re too weak.”
“It’s impossible… This can’t be happening.” Jinhuang Yi’s understanding of the past 900 years was shattered.
Someone had slapped him in the face at close range!
He hadn’t even had time to react?
After 18 consecutive blows, he was completely drained and unable to resist?
“I must have been careless and lost the upper hand, resulting in me being repeatedly beaten.” Jinhuang Yi quickly regained his composure. His gaze at Xu Jingming grew even more crazed. “I won’t give you a chance this time!”
Boom!
Jinhuang Yi transformed into a terrifying blur, slicing through the air with a deafening whistle. As he approached, he unleashed a stream of light from his waist!
Since it was a life-and-death battle, martial artists would employ weapons. Jinhuang Yi used a soft sword as a belt.
With his control over strength, the soft sword was extremely sharp and could be either soft or hard. It could change directions and was unpredictable.
“Die!” Jinhuang Yi’s expression twisted into a ferocious snarl.
He had previously intended to tease Xu Jingming with a slap, but now he was furious. He gave it his all and even unleashed his weapon!
But Xu Jingming remained unfazed. The moment Jinhuang Yi drew near, he swung his palm!
This time, he raised his right hand high and brought it down with unimaginable speed.
Huh? As Jinhuang Yi brandished his sword, he also sensed the masked man’s palm strike.
Just as he sensed it, the palm struck his head!
But he didn’t have time to react.
How fast! This was the only thought in Jinhuang Yi’s mind. Then, he lost consciousness under the devastating blow.
Bang!!!
There was a deafening explosion!
Xu Jingming’s palm strike sent Jinhuang Yi hurtling into the ground like a cannonball.
The impact created a massive crater over ten meters in diameter. In the center lay Jinhuang Yi’s battered body.
Blood covered his form, and his bones were shattered. His head was grotesquely deformed, and the area around him was stained crimson.
However, the vitality of a Lv. 23 legendary warrior was too tenacious. His injuries were quickly brought under control, and his wounds visibly healed. In just three seconds, Jinhuang Yi regained consciousness and recovered more than half of his strength in ten seconds.
He gazed up at the masked man standing over him.
Jinhuang Yi fell to his knees, pleading, “Your Excellency, I was wrong and arrogant. Please spare me. I’m willing to serve you, and our entire Jinhuang family is willing to serve you.”
“There’s no need,” the masked man spoke softly.
“The Jinhuang family is the strongest in Eastern Cloud. We can do many things for you, Your Excellency,” Jinhuang Yi begged, knowing this was his only chance of survival.
Xu Jingming’s finger tapped lightly against Jinhuang Yi’s forehead.
Jinhuang Yi’s eyes widened.
The finger didn’t seem to inflict any physical wounds, but Jinhuang Yi’s brain was turned to mush.
“Jinhuang family?” Xu Jingming murmured. “I find it repulsive!”
Jinhuang Yi crumpled to the ground.
The infamous Jinhuang Yi breathed his last here.
“I do need some manpower for rebuilding the order of the seven human countries in the future,” Xu Jingming pondered as he gazed at the corpse. “But vermin like this aren’t qualified to be my subordinates.”
With Jinhuang Yi’s corpse in hand, Xu Jingming vanished into thin air.
…
In the empty hall.
The three core upper echelons of the Magu Gang lay there when they suddenly saw the masked man carrying the corpse of a white-haired elder.
“That is?” The three were stunned.
They had once visited the elder! He was the true supreme ruler of the island.
“Jinhuang Yi is dead?” They found it hard to believe.
The portly man’s eyes turned red as he looked at Xu Jingming. “Your Excellency, if we transfer all our money into your account, can you spare us? We’re willing to serve you!”
“We’ll serve you if you spare us,” Magu Shenyi and the young woman immediately added.
At this moment, they had no illusions. They only wanted to live!
“Jinhuang Yi didn’t even get to see my true techniques.” Xu Jingming smiled at them. “But you are lucky enough to see it.”
Magu Shenyi, the portly man, and the young woman suddenly saw the masked man extend his hands.
Buzz!
In an instant, they vaguely saw a beautiful, enormous flying crane.
The crane spread its wings, and they turned into thousands of phantoms as if they had more than a thousand wings.
Xu Jingming finally pressed his palms together and looked at Magu Shenyi, the portly man, and the young woman with lifeless eyes.
“In this world, you three are the first to witness my ultimate technique, the Heart Divine Weapon Combat Technique. This move is the first of its kind, Thousand Shadows Flying Crane.” Xu Jingming gazed outward. “This world restricts mental strength too much. Even though my body has reached Lv. 28 and my mental strength is strong enough, it’s still confined to this world’s laws!”
The world’s laws greatly limit one’s mental strength. However, every species of the myriad has physical and mental strength, Xu Jingming realized. The mind can influence the other, and my Heart Divine Weapon Combat Technique can also affect the mind of others.
High-dimensional lifeforms of the Heart Realm lineage naturally had to use their advantage to create combat techniques that could affect the mind. Physique was important, and so were combat techniques.
“How much can you move?” Xu Jingming demanded.
“Your Excellency, the gang’s management is strict. We can only move a portion of the funds,” Magu Shenyi replied obediently. “But during our management of Magu Island, we stashed away some profits for ourselves. I have more than three billion in my personal account.”
“I’ve been in the gang for years, and I’ve accumulated over two billion,” the portly man added.
“I can mobilize over eight billion,” the woman said. “Six billion of it was given to me by the boss.”
Xu Jingming smiled and nodded. “No matter how strict the management is, the upper echelons always profit first. Alright, transfer all the funds to the Myriad Species Bank account.”
“Yes, Your Excellency.”
The three, whose minds were controlled, obediently transferred all their accumulated assets to Xu Jingming’s account, including the funds in the Magu Gang’s account which they worked together to transfer a portion of.
“Very good.” Xu Jingming nodded and flicked his finger.
Three gusts of wind emanated from his finger, touching the three of them, and they collapsed silently.
The three of them were dead!
Xu Jingming had never intended to spare the heinous upper echelons of the Magu Gang; he just wanted to earn some money. Though body tempering techniques were precious, he could still buy quite a bit as long as he spent money.
As for snatching? It would cause too much of a commotion. More than five million high-dimensional lifeforms lurked in the Myriad Species World, so Xu Jingming didn’t want to attract too much attention.
I came to Magu Island, and those who saw my true strength are dead. Xu Jingming surveyed the corpses before him. I can leave Magu Island after cleaning up.
Xu Jingming still remembered clearly that his main goal for coming to Magu Island was to resolve the problem of Oilwind.
Killing Jinhuang Yi, Magu Shenyi, and other scumbags and earning some money was just a matter of convenience.
