With a clang, the two severed arms that were wrapped in armor fell to the ground. Several offensive magic treasures that hadn't been activated in time were scattered on the ground. After emitting a burst of dazzling brilliance, all of them dimmed down.
Huangpu Shiyi was dazed for a moment. He brought the broken arms close to his face and looked at them with his head tilted.
For a whole second, no blood flowed out of the cut surfaces that were as smooth as mirrors. The bones, veins, and nerves were clearly visible, as if they were pictures in a textbook.
It was not until one second later that two fountains of blood suddenly burst out and sprayed his head and face.
Huangpu Shiyi screamed desperately, "My hands! My hands! "
As an Immortal Cultivator in the Core Formation Stage, he shouldn't have been so useless as to scream and scream just because his hands were broken.
The problem was that he was still in the outburst state. His blood, his soul, and even his vitality had all been poured into his hands!
His body was as thin as firewood, and he was barely breathing because he had been nurturing his hands!
By cutting off his hands, Li Yao had taken away ninety percent of his vitality!
"Hands! My hands! "
Huangpu Shiyi screamed and lunged at the broken hands without caring about anything, only to be kicked in the chest by Li Yao!
Under the spurting of spiritual energy, the breastplate of Huangpu Shiyi's Maintainer Crystal Suit exploded one after another, and he was blown almost ten meters away.
With a muffled puff, the inside of the mask was filled with blood!
"Crack!"
"Crack!"
Li Yao stomped on the two broken hands mercilessly!
Huangpu Shiyi, a super refiner and an unparalleled genius, whose perfect hands were condensed with the blood of his entire body, which were almost a work of art, had been stomped into smithereens by Li Yao!
The shocking scene made Huangpu Shiyi's eyeballs almost pop out of their sockets. He almost passed out in fury.
"You stomped my hands into smithereens. My perfect hands! "
Li Yao ground the soles of his feet carefully, making sure that every finger of his had been ground into powder by the iron feet of the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit, before he said casually, "I've lost today's battle. Therefore, I will keep my promise and acknowledge you as my master. I will always remember that you are my master, Huangpu Shiyi. So, you don't have to worry. The Heart Demon Blood Oath won't affect me at all! "
Li Yao walked toward Huangpu Shiyi. His feet were dripping with blood. After every step he took, a bloody footprint would be left.
A vulture-like smile beamed out of Li Yao's face as he continued, "I believe that you can tell that I am a man of my word, because a friend of mine told me before that I am not a man of my word. Since we're all cultivators, the most important thing is to keep our word! "
"I think that's very true."
"That's why I said that I want to acknowledge you as my master, so I must acknowledge you as my master!"
"However, I said yesterday that after today's battle, I would chop off a pair of hands. I didn't forget about this matter. I said that I would chop off a pair of hands. Then it must be beheaded! Otherwise, how can I be a Cultivator in the future?
"Master, it will hurt a bit later. You must hold on for a while!"
Huangpu Shiyi couldn't have been more frightened. He waved his broken hands and shouted crazily, "What — what are you doing? Don't come any closer. Don't come any closer!"
Li Yao approached him step by step.
"You — you can't kill me! I'll make a deal with you. Let's make a deal! "
Huangpu Shiyi said quickly, "I know a lot of techniques, too. The secret arts of the Huangpu family on the refinement of sabers and swords, the special approaches to the production of crystal bombs, and even the techniques to modify crystal suits on Spider Den, I know a thing or two about them! All the techniques are in my head. If you kill me, you won't be able to get them! "
"Okay."
Li Yao moved on and said calmly, "I'm not very smart. There are too many techniques for me to study. Thanks to your tutelage, I've grasped enough techniques for me to digest for a while! I'm not greedy. In fact, I'm very filial. I'll leave the rest of the techniques to you, Master! "
Huangpu Shiyi was trembling all over. Supporting himself with his broken hands, he wriggled backward like a caterpillar and begged, "Don't kill me. I'll give you whatever you want. We can talk about any terms you want. Just don't kill me …"
"Talk? Of course, no problem. However, you should talk to the 41,524 innocent souls who were killed by your serial explosions in the Skyhill Domain!"
Li Yao suddenly burst into fury. He shrieked and punched Huangpu Shiyi's chest brutally like two tornadoes!
In a moment, sparks were spluttering. Metal was twisted. Skin was torn apart. Bones were broken. Fists collided with flesh, bones, and internal organs, causing marvelous roars!
Li Yao punched Huangpu Shiyi again and again. His every punch was close to the supersonic speed. Every piece of armor on Huangpu Shiyi's body was blown apart, and every bone on his body was broken into pieces!
"This punch is for Sha Guoan!
"This punch is for Su Hongzhi!
"This punch is for Tao Xiaofang!
"You have a head but no tail. Pigs don't eat dogs and pigs don't bite. Go to hell!"
Huangpu Shiyi's body collapsed inch by inch when his Crystal Suit exploded into pieces. He was cramping and screaming at the beginning, but in the end, he was barely breathing. Li Yao punched Huangpu Shiyi thousands of times in a row. Suddenly, he retracted his right hand and closed his index finger and middle finger. Gold brilliance in the shape of a spiral was shining on the tip of his finger, making it look like an unstoppable drill!
"You — you're going to —"
Huangpu Shiyi's skull was beaming with despair. His left eye had completely exploded because of the excruciating pain. Blood and tears were flowing out, and he was moaning feebly!
"I punched you 4,722 times just now. That's only one tenth of the four thousand innocent souls I killed!
"Let's replace the remaining ninety percent with this!
"Scumbags like you are not qualified to train with spiritual energy. I'm going to dig out your spiritual root for the innocent souls. Oh, no. You are an Immortal Cultivator. That's your 'divine root'!
"No. Don't!"
When one's spiritual root was destroyed, one would become a cripple. Although Huangpu Shiyi was already as weak as a pile of mud, he was still screaming with the last bit of his strength.
But how could his screams stop Li Yao, who was as ferocious as a tiger?
Li Yao grinned hideously. Two fingers of his right hand drew a golden arc and pierced into the middle of Huangpu Shiyi's eyebrows, where the pineal gland was located!
Helical spiritual energy flooded in and scratched everywhere. Finally, he sensed a particularly thick amalgamation of spiritual energy.
Li Yao bellowed. He bent his fingers and hooked them. Then, he pulled, pulled, and lifted the amalgamation!
A dim, golden thread that looked like a translucent miniature ginseng with countless roots extended out from the center of Huangpu Shiyi's eyebrows!
It was the spiritual root! The spiritual root of a Core Formation Stage Cultivator!
Li Yao opened his fingers and grabbed the bright golden spiritual root that looked like a mini ginseng, before he squeezed it brutally!
"Pa!"
After a crisp sound, specks of golden light escaped from the gaps of Li Yao's fingers and disappeared without a trace in midair.
He had crushed it!
Li Yao had crushed the spiritual root of a Core Formation Stage Cultivator!
Huangpu Shiyi's spiritual root had been crushed. He was now a cripple!
He was like a man whose lower body had been crushed brutally. He was screaming ten times more miserably than before.
Even the devils in the deepest level of hell would feel that their blood was freezing and their bodies were trembling when they heard such screams!
"Kill me … Kill me …"
His hands were chopped off, his bones were broken, and his spiritual root had been crushed. Huangpu Shiyi was desperate right now. That was the only hope he had left.
Li Yao licked the blood on his lips and smiled. "Don't be hasty, Master. You are still of some value. Let me make use of you for a while longer!"
Hardly had he concluded his sentence when he punched into Huangpu Shiyi's mouth, blowing up his teeth, his tongue, and even his vocal cords!
The lower half of his face had collapsed. There was no sign of a mouth at all!
As a result, Huangpu Shiyi had no hands to write, no mouth to speak, and no bones to crawl. His spiritual root had been destroyed, and he could not communicate with other people with his spiritual energy, either.
In short, he had lost the ability to send messages to the outside world.
Li Yao's movements were very precise. Even though he was in a fury a moment ago, he was still careful enough to keep Huangpu Shiyi alive for a while longer until he reached the medical cabin.
Looking at Huangpu Shiyi, who was wriggling like a maggot in the mud below his feet, Li Yao spat at him. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
He turned around and walked toward Huangpu Xiaoya.
When he passed by the broken bodies of Black Stone and White Dew, he stopped for a moment and released dozens of spiritual threads from his hands. He searched their pockets and found two jade chips.
His spiritual threads rolled the jade chips into his hands. Li Yao whistled and said, "Thanks, fatty!"
When he finally reached Huangpu Xiaoya, the Mystic Skeleton Battlesuit had already been retracted.
At this moment, the smoke inside the warehouse finally dispersed a little under the effect of the powerful ventilation rune arrays on the ceiling.
Huangpu Xiaoya's mouth turned into a perfect circle, which was big enough to stuff a duck egg of the largest size inside.
Most of her spiritual energy had been sealed and could not be used to enhance her eyesight. Therefore, she only saw that Li Yao was refining a crystal bomb when it suddenly exploded. Then, her eyesight was blocked by a cluster of smoke. She only heard screams, each louder than the last.
She could tell that the screams belonged to several Immortal Cultivators. Some of them even belonged to Huangpu Shiyi himself!
Huangpu Xiaoya's heart was pounding. She did not understand what was going on. Had another expert come to rescue her?
However, she had never foreseen that the one who would appear in front of her in the end would be the shameless traitor Li Yao!
"You …"
Looking at Li Yao, who was brimming with killing intent and whose face was stained with blood, Huangpu Xiaoya's heart was racing. She suddenly did not know what to say.
His eyes followed Li Yao's back, only to be even more dumbfounded!
Black Stone and White Dew were both dead. Their four subordinates were dead, too!
But Huangpu Shiyi was wriggling and struggling!
"What — what is going on?"
Huangpu Xiaoya was shocked. She mumbled, "Who — who are you exactly?"
