A sword emerged, splitting heaven and earth!
Du Qingcheng, however, was unafraid, and his fist still came crashing down. The majestic true essence flowed on his fist, colliding with Xu Wenqing's palm sword.
Boom!
The clash of power erupted, a shockwave of true essence from the two powerful warriors.
Swish!
Xu Wenqing was instantly sent flying, spitting out a mouthful of blood, his face turning pale, his breath weak. In contrast, Du Qingcheng remained calm and composed, not retreating even half a step.
At this moment, that woman had also kicked over.
Her slender jade leg moved like a ghost, suddenly appearing at Du Qingcheng's back. Just as she was about to land the kick, Du Qingcheng's figure swayed, and he swiftly turned around, gripping her jade foot in an instant.
"Tsk tsk, such a beautiful leg is actually used to hurt people, what a waste!" Du Qingcheng teased, a playful smile on his lips.
"You!" The woman was both embarrassed and furious. Her right leg remained still, and her whole body spun, her left leg shooting like lightning toward Du Qingcheng's face.
Du Qingcheng laughed heartily, blocking with his left hand while violently swinging his right hand. With a loud crash, he showed no mercy, instantly throwing the woman to the ground, causing dust to explode everywhere, leaving her in a pitiful state.
Gone was her earlier cold and proud demeanor.
This scene left Xu Wang and the others dumbfounded.
Strong, too strong! The three great geniuses were no match for this person with just one move, it was terrifying!
This was certainly due to the three being somewhat careless at the beginning, but they had to know that all three were geniuses from royal-level forces, usually invincible in their same realm, having always crushed others without being crushed themselves.
But now? Three against one, and they were still defeated, and so thoroughly at that.
Was this really just the seventh ranked genius among the Ten Heroes of Tianluo? How terrifying could the first-ranked be?
"How is it? Are you three convinced?" Du Qingcheng did not go for the kill; instead, he sat back down, picked up his tea, and smiled.
The three of them struggled to get up, covered in dirt, their expressions bitter. They swallowed hard, feeling utterly powerless to refute.
As geniuses from royal-level forces, although their cultivation was only mid-stage of the seventh rank, in actual combat, it wasn't uncommon for even late-stage Martial Kings from ordinary forces to struggle against them, which was why they had the capital to be arrogant.
But now, they had been easily defeated by a peer. Not only was the opponent's cultivation above theirs, but their strength was also unfathomable. No wonder they dared to claim that no one among the Martial Kings could match them; they indeed had that confidence.
Compared to the opponent, the three royal-level geniuses were nothing!
In fact, they weren't that weak; they were just caught off guard by Du Qingcheng. However, regardless of the circumstances, a defeat is a defeat. Even if they took things seriously and revealed all their trump cards, while they wouldn't be so embarrassed, the final result would still be a loss, and nothing would change.
They had trump cards; did the other side not have any?
The Tianluo Dynasty was a top-tier dynasty even more terrifying than their own.
The strength of this person was beyond imagination.
"Brother Han, I'm taking my leave!"
The three, having been defeated by Du Qingcheng, instantly lost face and had no desire to stay, immediately cupping their hands toward Han Li and turning to leave without waiting for him to speak.
Since they had lost, why stay and humiliate themselves further?
"Three, see you at the time of the Demon Sword inheritance!"
Han Li stood and cupped his hands, not trying to keep them, but since they had come to inquire about the Demon Sword inheritance, and these three had impressive backgrounds, forming connections would be beneficial to him, so he couldn't be negligent.
After the three left, Han Li smiled and said to Du Qingcheng, "I said that if Brother Du made a move, at the level of Martial King, there would be no resistance; they didn't believe it, so they can only regard it as self-humiliation."
