Yan Jiu, Fire Swallow Executioner, and the six Green Swallow Demon Immortals under his command had already blocked off the remaining Mystic Immortals of the Qin Clan. Yan Jiu glanced at Qin Runan and saw that she had already obtained the Sacred Spirit Pill.
Seeing Qin Runan turn around with a murderous expression, Yan Jiu was fearless and flew forward. No matter how bold Qin Runan was, she wouldn't dare to do anything to her and Lu Xiaotian so openly. Unless the Qin family wanted to rebel against the heavenly court.
However, the situation on the battlefield changed in the blink of an eye. Qin Gang, who had blocked Lu Xiaotian's Great Desolate Halberd, wasn't at a disadvantage. After being enveloped by the huge pagoda shadow, Qin Gang's speed suddenly decreased. Lu Xiaotian reached out with his left hand and grabbed at the air. Qin Gang was grabbed by the neck like a little chick.
Qin Gang's face was filled with horror and disbelief. He grabbed his neck with both hands, as if trying to break free. However, no matter how hard he tried, it was a futile struggle. Instead, the other party's grip tightened, causing Qin Gang's face to turn red.
At this moment, Qin Gang, an expert who had comprehended the Grotto-Heaven Dao Realm, seemed to have become even weaker than a child without the strength to truss up a chicken.
Everyone was stunned by this shocking change. Qin Gang, who was supposed to be on par with Lu Xiaotian, a abstruse immortal expert, was defeated by Lu Xiaotian with a raise of his hand. Could it be that Lu Xiaotian had already cultivated to the Sky Immortal Realm?
"Impossible!" It wasn't just Qin Meng and the other immortal soldiers on the huge warship. Yan Jiu, Qin Runan, and the others all widened their eyes in disbelief.
The lion-maned old man had also stopped. When he saw Lu Xiaotian's indifferent expression, he couldn't help but spit with difficulty. Although Lu Xiaotian was strong in the Purple Pure Immortal Palace, he was only a true immortal and only relied on the Five Baneful Waves. His own strength wasn't formidable, yet Qin Gang's strength had actually risen to such an extent, and it had even exceeded his understanding. The might of Qin Gang's attack caused the lion-maned old man's heart to tremble. Such an expert was absolutely not someone he could go against. However, the Mysterious Immortal Realm expert that the lion-maned old man didn't have a shred of confidence in had actually been captured alive by Lu Xiaotian with such ease. The situation before them had simply overturned everyone's knowledge.
Qin Gang struggled in vain. His face turned redder and redder as he looked at Lu Xiaotian in horror. The death of one's body and Dao was the greatest blow to every cultivator. Xu Rong's physical body had been destroyed. It was more likely that Xu Rong wouldn't be able to recover to her peak state. There was little hope for her to recover to her original state or even improve further.
With Xu Rong's example, Qin Gang was very clear that if he troubled Lu Xiaotian, his end wouldn't be any better than Xu Rong's. Thinking of his cultivation and the long time it took for him to reach his current level, Qin Gang was unprecedentedly afraid. He was afraid that he would end up like Xu Rong or even worse.
"Deputy Pavilion Master Dongfang, let Qin Gang go. Otherwise, the Qin Clan will fight you to the death! Even if I have to use the immortal army's battle formation, I will kill you here. "Qin Runan's eyes were cold and murderous intent surged from her body.
"You stole my pills and even threatened to kill me. Do you really think I don't have a temper? I'd like to see what you and the immortal army's battle formation can do to me after I kill Qin Gang." Lu Xiaotian shook his head and smiled. Under the huge shadow of the Demon Subduing Pagoda, Lu Xiaotian tightened his grip on Qin Gang's neck. Immediately, Qin Gang's neck creaked and his face turned red as if it was about to explode.
"Stop!" Qin Meng and Qin Runan, who were on the warship, shouted at almost the same time.
"What, changed your mind?" Lu Xiaotian glanced at Qin Meng and Qin Runan. "Give me your pills and holy spirits in exchange for Qin Gang. If you can't make a decision in ten breaths of time, I'll kill Qin Gang and take the holy spirits!"
Fire Swallow Executioner Yan Jiu flew forward and swept his stern gaze over Lu Xiaotian and Qin Runan. "Return the holy spirits to Deputy Pavilion Master Dongfang, and Deputy Pavilion Master Dongfang will also release Qin Gang. Don't think that your Qin Clan or a deputy pavilion master of the Alchemy Pavilion can go unpunished for violating the laws of heaven. I will report today's matter as it is!"
"Ten, nine!"
"Deputy Pavilion Master Dongfang, you should know the consequences of killing Qin Gang." Yan Jiu's fierce gaze swept over Lu Xiaotian.
"Eight." Lu Xiaotian ignored Yan Jiu's reprimand and continued to count down.
Yan Jiu snorted coldly. He had not expected Lu Xiaotian to be so stubborn and reckless. However, even a clay figurine had its own rustic nature. He had been forced to this extent by the Qin Clan and had even lost his pills and holy spirits. As an alchemist, how could he tolerate such a thing? However, when he recalled that Lu Xiaotian had always considered himself an alchemist, Yan Jiu felt an inexplicable sense of strangeness. Lu Xiaotian was probably the only one with such strong combat strength who would not feel embarrassed to do so.
Qin Runan's expression changed drastically. The other members of the Qin Clan or the Mystic Immortals attached to the Qin Clan did not dare to step forward at this moment. After all, this was related to Qin Gang's death. If they made any strange movements and caused something bad to happen, they would not be able to bear the consequences.
"I'll return the holy spirits to you and let my Second Brother go." Qin Meng's face was pale. She turned to Qin Runan and said, "Sister Runan, save Second Brother and return the holy spirits to him."
"Seven, six." Lu Xiaotian was still counting down, unmoved.
"Sister Runan, save Second Brother, or it will be too late!" Qin Meng shouted anxiously.
"Alright, let's exchange!" When Lu Xiaotian counted to two and saw Lu Xiaotian's indifferent expression, Qin Runan's heart skipped a beat. In the end, she had given in before Lu Xiaotian killed her. After all, Lu Xiaotian had dared to kill Xu Rong with his halberd. Similarly, he also dared to deal with Qin Gang.
After the exchange, Qin Gang returned to Qin Runan's side. He covered his neck with his hand and looked at Lu Xiaotian with a lingering fear. After narrowly escaping death, Qin Gang looked at Lu Xiaotian with a trace of fear that had never been there before. Until now, he still could not understand how he had lost to Lu Xiaotian.
"The military situation is urgent. Since this matter has been resolved, Deputy Pavilion Master Dongfang should return to the warship with us and continue on to the Tiansang Wasteland."
Qin Runan's expression was gloomy as she gloomily glossed over what had just happened. However, the two sides had already fallen out. Xu Rong and Lu Xiaotian's Principal Spirit had also been injured, and the enmity between them had deepened. It was almost impossible for them to be reconciled. Qin Runan was still able to calm down. One could only imagine what Lu Xiaotian would have to face after going to the Tiansang Wasteland with the other party.
"I consumed a lot of energy in the battle just now, and I'm seriously injured. I need to recuperate for some time. I'm afraid I won't be able to make the trip easily," Lu Xiaotian said, shaking his head.
