473 Song Qingshu

Song Qingshu had never expected that Rao Wuqing, the eldest disciple of Holy Lord Gu Hua, would be determined to kill him. Although he did not have the position of Holy Son, he was still an extraordinary cultivator.

“Hehe, Ning Caichen, right? Why don’t you take a look at who I am and what kind of person Rao Wuqing is! As the shadow of the current number-one Holy Son, I’m extraordinary in both immortal cultivation and martial arts. I have many tricks up my sleeve and countless trump cards. I’ve even mastered all of Rao Wuqing’s combat methods. As for you, you’re a genius from the Flowerfruit Mountain. I shouldn’t have attacked you. However, the Universe Cauldron is too precious, even if it’s an imitation. So, you have to hand over the Universe Cauldron obediently today, or you’ll die here!” Song Qingshu said proudly.

It was not that he did not have the talent to become a Holy Son. It was just that he had become Gu Chi’s shadow from the beginning. Although he felt aggrieved, this was his mission that he had to complete.

Moreover, he was not as stupid as Rao Wuqing. Even if he was Gu Chi’s shadow, he would still be careful and not follow in Rao Wuqing’s footsteps!

Rao Wuqing’s lips curled into a disdainful smile.

He was a complete idiot!

Since ancient times, shadows and executioners were destined to have bad endings.

Whether it was him or the shadow of the previous Holy Lord, they were all self-righteous and believed that they would not end up in a miserable state. However, what happened in the end?

Compared to the previous generation’s shadow, his only advantage was that he had Ning Caichen’s help. One should know that the previous generation’s shadow was all alone, and in the end, he ended up with an unpleasant fate.

“I don’t have much confidence in killing him alone. Thus, Ning Caichen, I hope to get your help,” Rao Wuqing said sincerely, which was exactly what Jiang Ming wanted.

“Alright, you can. However, I want you to swear an oath to the heavens, pledge allegiance to me, and work for my sect. You must not betray me and the Flowerfruit Mountain.”

Rao Wuqing did not hesitate and immediately swore an oath to the heavens.

In fact, he had also made a Heavenly Cultivation Oath when he was the Holy Lord’s shadow. Logically speaking, he should not have betrayed the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land. However, since the other party had broken the oath first, he could not blame him for turning his back on him.

As for whether or not he wanted Ning Caichen to swear a Heavenly Cultivation Oath, Rao Wuqing did not consider this. He knew that if he wanted to survive, he had to obediently submit to Ning Caichen. Otherwise, it would be difficult for him to defeat Song Qingshu alone, let alone escape from the Land of Heritage of the Flame Demon Heavenly Lord.

“Good!”

Jiang Ming smiled and shouted, “Then let’s join hands and kill this b*stard!”

Jiang Ming did not plan to engage in close combat. He was only in the early-stage Golden Core Realm. If he engaged in close combat, he would definitely die in Song Qingshu’s hands. After all, Song Qingshu had the aptitude of a Holy Son and had cultivated his mana to the peak of the Malevolent Core Realm. Song Qingshu himself was above the peak of the Golden Core Realm and was a half-step Nascent Soul realm cultivator. He was definitely no match for him.

However, Jiang Ming had another supreme treasure, the Universe Cauldron!

“Sacrifice! Smash! Refine!”

Bang! Bang! Bang!

For a moment, the sound of attacks could be heard without end. The Universe Cauldron spun in the air and smashed toward Song Qingshu.

Huge pits appeared one after another, and there were even more corpses. They were all cultivators of the Ancient Kingdom Blessed Land.

“Hide further away!” Gu Chi roared. Now that Rao Wuqing was no longer a threat, they immediately withdrew and fled far away. Then, they constructed another array formation to ensure their safety.

Song Qingshu had a disheveled look on his face.

He looked at Jiang Ming fiercely and shouted, “Ning Caichen, if you have the guts, don’t rely on the Universe Cauldron. Come and fight me with your real strength!”

Song Qingshu was not a fool. He knew the power of the Universe Cauldron very well. If he was hit, he was destined to be severely injured even if he did not die. If it was any other time, it would be fine. However, Rao Wuqing was still watching from the side. If he was severely injured, Rao Wuqing would definitely kill him immediately.

Therefore, he had to avoid the Universe Cauldron and lure Jiang Ming to fight him in close combat.

Unexpectedly, Jiang Ming sneered.

“Song Qingshu, were you dropped on your head as a baby? Do you think I’m that dumb?”

What a joke!

This was a life-or-death battle!

Jiang Ming did not bother to say anything. He kept using his hands to form seals and controlled the Universe Cauldron to attack. This was the technique that the black sword had passed to Jiang Ming after it recovered part of its memory. It was the Smashing Human Body Technique!

When he first heard of this name, Jiang Ming could not help but complain. How could the name of a mystic technique be so vulgar? However, when he really used it, Jiang Ming realized that it was really using something to smash people!

In the next moment, as Jiang Ming formed the twelfth seal, the Universe Cauldron spun faster and faster, hitting Song Qingshu directly. The latter was shaken so badly that he spat out mouthfuls of blood, and his face turned pale instantly.

“Next is the thirteenth attack!”

The corners of Jiang Ming’s mouth curled up. At the same time, he was extremely vigilant.

That blow just now should have been able to cripple an ordinary half-step Nascent Soul Realm cultivator. However, even though Song Qingshu had vomited blood and his face was pale, his breathing was not too chaotic.

“As expected of a person like him. He is indeed extraordinary. I reckon Rao Wuqing is not inferior to him… Fortunately, I didn’t insist on having a conflict with Rao Wuqing, or I would have died!”

Jiang Ming was extremely glad.

Rao Wuqing’s expression did not change. However, his eyes lit up.

Song Qingshu did a great job!

He was using Song Qingshu to show his strength, to let Ning Caichen know that he could make Rao Wuqing submit and serve him. However, he definitely couldn’t underestimate him!

However, Rao Wuqing also looked at Jiang Ming warily.

“This brat’s methods are a little too ruthless. Just these ten or so attacks are enough to make a half-step Nascent Soul Realm cultivator miserable… Most importantly, he’s only in the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. If he could advance to the middle stage, late stage, or even the peak of the Golden Core Realm, with the help of the Universe Cauldron, he would be able to instantly kill a cultivator in the half-step Nascent Soul Realm, and a cultivator with the potential of a Holy Son!”

Rao Wuqing could not help but take a deep breath.

Both sides seemed to be fighting against Rao Wuqing. However, in reality, they were revealing some of their trump cards in order to create a certain degree of deterrence in front of each other.

It could be said that Song Qingshu had been a tool from the beginning to the end!
