Martial Arrogance Dragon Soul-Chapter 40: I Will Also Kill You

Not long after the signal arrow exploded in the air,

troops from the Mansion Soldiers began to converge towards the deep pool.

"Quick, quick, quick!"

"We’ve found traces of Qin Qing!"

"This guy, he’s going to die for sure this time, right?"

"Really knows how to hide, but can you escape for a moment, or for a lifetime?"

"His injuries must already be severe. He’s done for this time!"

In the direction closer to the eastern side of Tianjue City,

Shangguan Xuan, who was riding a fierce cloud horse, was also looking in the direction where the signal arrow had exploded.

"Eh? Found him again?"

Shangguan Xuan gave Mu Yunlan a smile that was not quite a smile.

"Last time, he was lucky to escape by jumping into the water. This time, I’d like to see him try!"

He changed direction, and along with Mu Yunlan on the same fierce cloud horse, sped towards Qin Qing’s location.

...

More and more Mansion Soldiers came into view for Qin Qing.

"Shangguan Xuan hasn’t arrived yet?"

Qin Qing, holding his halberd, stood indifferently by the edge of the pond.

Not far away, several squads of Mansion Soldiers began to move closer to Qin Qing.

"Huh!"

Finally.

A streak of fire shot across the sky.

Shangguan Xuan appeared in Qin Qing’s field of vision.

Additionally, there were more than a dozen elite Mansion Soldiers, all riding fierce cloud horses, and they appeared almost simultaneously with Shangguan Xuan.

"Qin Qing, you sure have a tough life!"

Shangguan Xuan dismounted from the fierce cloud horse, with Mu Yunlan following behind him.

"Shangguan Xuan, rest assured. I, Qin Qing, certainly won’t die before you do!"

Qin Qing sneered with a smile, looking at Shangguan Xuan.

"Heh, still talking tough."

Shangguan Xuan shook his head with ridicule.

"They say that a vile life is a tough one. Your family love is just like that, like a stone in a cesspit, both stinking and hard."

"But... this time, you’re definitely going to die!"

He gave a wave of his hand.

Suddenly, those dozen or so elite Mansion Soldiers behind him charged forward, surrounding Qin Qing in the middle.

Qin Qing’s gaze swept over the thirteen elite Mansion Soldiers, seven at the peak of the Soul Refinement Realm and six Great Martial Masters of the Divine Might Realm!

Seems like the elite forces of the City Lord’s Mansion have all been dispatched, haven’t they?

However, Qin Qing’s target was not these elite Mansion Soldiers.

He had launched the signal arrow precisely to attract Shangguan Xuan.

His goal, naturally, was to kill Shangguan Xuan!

"That’s right! Shangguan Xuan, this time, you’re definitely going to die!"

Qin Qing’s eyes turned chilly.

In the next instant, the momentum of his body suddenly soared to its peak.

"Kill!"

His Martial Soul faintly manifested.

Soul Power intertwined, fused with the violent Spiritual Power, converging upon the Great Halberd. His entire being was like a streak of blue light, charging directly towards Shangguan Xuan.

"Not good!"

"Block him!"

The dozen or so elite Mansion Soldiers, and not far away, some Great Martial Masters of the Divine Might Realm dispatched from the Shangguan Clan Family,

their faces changed dramatically at that moment.

The momentum erupting from Qin Qing was enough to make anyone present feel terrified.

Two elite Mansion Soldiers instantly leaped forward, placing themselves in front of Qin Qing.

These were two Great Martial Masters in the preliminary stage of the Divine Might Realm!

"Die!"

Qin Qing roared furiously.

His halberd swung in a wide arc.

"Clang!"

The halberd shined brilliantly.

This was Qin Qing’s strongest strike.

He had unleashed his most powerful force.

The two Divine Might Realm Mansion Soldiers attacked simultaneously.

One wielded a halberd, while the other swung a Golden Ring Saber.

At the same time, both Mansion Soldiers’ Martial Souls also fully manifested.

One’s Martial Soul was a giant lion enveloped in burning flames; the other’s was a dark brown serpent.

"Boom"!

The power of the two Mansion Soldiers combined, confronting Qin Qing head-on.

But!

Not nearly enough!

Qin Qing’s strength was far above these two Mansion Soldiers!

Crackling and snapping!

Just like breaking dead branches.

The two Mansion Soldiers were directly toppled.

The one holding the Great Halberd with a Martial Soul of a dark brown serpent was even more directly cut across the chest by the halberd’s edge, with blood gushing out and a large piece of his bones broken.

He flew backwards, crashing to the ground, where one could see his internal organs still pulsating in his torn-open chest, but his breath was already exceedingly weak, and without timely treatment, he was likely to die right there.

The other Mansion Soldier, whose Martial Soul was a blazing lion, was also seriously injured.

On the surface, he seemed to be intact, but the internal injuries caused by the shock left him without any fighting strength.

At this moment, the hand holding the Golden Ring Saber was trembling uncontrollably, and blood traces seeped from the corner of his mouth...

After repelling these two Mansion Soldiers, Qin Qing leapt up like a bolt of lightning, once again charging towards Shangguan Xuan.

"Young Master Shangguan, run for it!"

A Great Martial Master within the Shangguan Clan Family bellowed.

This time, the Shangguan Clan hadn’t sent their real experts.

In their eyes, dealing with a teenager from Tianjue City, a junior at most at the preliminary stage of Soul Refinement Realm, didn’t warrant such a mobilization.

Moreover,

when Qin Qing escaped Tianjue City, he had already sustained severe injuries.

No one had anticipated that Qin Qing could recover from his injuries so quickly in such a short period of time,

let alone that under these circumstances, he would be able to make continuous breakthroughs in his cultivation!

At this moment, Shangguan Xuan was similarly dumbfounded.

How had this Qin Qing suddenly become so formidable?

In Tianjue City, even if Qin Qing did kill Lin Feng,

that was entirely because Lin Feng was careless.

Moreover, Qin Qing must have used some secret technique that could greatly enhance his strength for a short amount of time.

Usually, the backlash of such a secret technique was very terrifying.

"Why is this Qin Qing able to recover so quickly in such a short time, and can also use this kind of secret technique again?"

Shangguan Xuan was utterly bewildered.

All of this was illogical!

"Run!"

At this time, all he could think of was to flee!

"Stop him!"

As he ran away, Shangguan Xuan shouted loudly.

The other eleven Mansion Soldiers from the City Lord’s Mansion hesitated at this moment, not daring to step forward.

Qin Qing’s recent spear strike had shaken them to the core.

In contrast, the few Great Martial Masters from the Shangguan Clan Family, disregarding everything, rushed over trying to block Qin Qing.

But!

Qin Qing was too fast~!

With a leap, he arrived behind Shangguan Xuan.

"Die!"

The Great Halberd in Qin Qing’s hands came slashing down through the air!

A cyan halberd light slashed down towards Shangguan Xuan’s head.

Shangguan Xuan turned his head in horror, looking up at the falling halberd light.

"No!"

Shangguan Xuan roared.

At the same time, the halberd light fell.

"Boom!"

...

But at that moment, a blinding golden light burst forth from Shangguan Xuan’s body.

"Buzzing!"

In an instant, a golden protective shield, like a golden egg, completely enveloped Shangguan Xuan.

"A defensive Spiritual Treasure?"

Qin Qing was startled.

He immediately understood.

How could someone like Shangguan Xuan, a scion of a royal family, not have one or two Body-Protection Spiritual Treasures?

Shangguan Xuan, following a brief moment of terror, snapped back to his senses.

Then—

"Hahahaha..."

He laughed boisterously.

"Qin Qing, you want to kill me?"

"Can you kill me? I have the Body-Protection Spiritual Treasure bestowed by my family! You country bumpkin, do you even know what a Body-Protection Spiritual Treasure is? Hahaha..."

Qin Qing’s expression darkened.

But he quickly regained his composure.

"Body-Protection Spiritual Treasure, is it?"

"Can a Body-Protection Spiritual Treasure truly guarantee that you will not die?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Qin Qing sneered, "Today, even if you have a Body-Protection Spiritual Treasure, I will kill you!"
