A fist fell.
The sword shadows vanished at once.
Only when Chu Tianxiong's body crashed to the ground did the others snap to their senses.
They could see that Chu Tianxiong's chest was caved in, as he coughed up mouthfuls of fresh blood. He tried to struggle up from the ground but was utterly incapable.
In less than a moment,
Chu Tianxiong became motionless.
Until death,
his eyes were filled with shock and disbelief, as if he couldn't accept that he would die so abruptly.
"Hiss... Chu Tianxiong is dead!"
"The Thunderbolt Sword, Chu Tianxiong, who stepped into the mid-level Blood Refining Realm years ago and could almost match the strength of those in the late stage— I never imagined he couldn't withstand a single punch from Gu Qingfeng!"
"Killing Chu Tianxiong with one punch, this person's cultivation must have reached Blood Refining Perfection, right?"
In an instant,
everyone looked at Gu Qingfeng with eyes full of terror.
A fist that killed a mid-level Blood Refining martial artist.
No wonder these people were shocked.
Looking across the entire White Stone Dao, the martial artists who could step into the Blood Refining Realm were few, and those who could reach the mid-level were the cream of the crop.
Such a strong person, yet unable to withstand the opponent's single punch.
The power of the Gu Family Master made them feel helpless.
However,
even more desperate were the people of the Chu Family.
Now that their only Blood Refining Realm expert had fallen, the remaining members had no chance to withstand the Gu Family.
At this moment,
there was a disturbance from the outside. The crowd that initially surrounded the Chu Family to watch the show was uncontrollably stepping back, and then Iron Bone Gang Leader Luo Yu arrived with a group of experts.
Upon seeing the collapsed Chu Tianxiong with his chest caved in, lying dead on the ground, Luo Yu's pupils constricted sharply.
At this time,
a disciple of the Iron Bone Gang stepped out from the crowd and whispered a few words into Luo Yu's ear, causing his expression to change unpredictably.
Afterwards,
Luo Yu walked up to Gu Qingfeng, clasped his hands, and said, "I am Luo Yu of the Iron Bone Gang. It's a pleasure to meet the Gu Family Master!"
Before Gu Qingfeng could speak, members of the Chu Family scurried forward, scrambling and pleading.
"Gang Leader Luo, Gu Qingfeng came here without cause, publicly committing violence. Our Family Head of the Chu Family died tragically at his hands. We implore Gang Leader Luo to uphold justice for us!"
"We hope Gang Leader Luo will uphold justice—"
Other members of the Chu Family also shouted in unison, their eyes filled with hatred and murderous intent towards Gu Qingfeng.
Hearing these words, Gu Qingfeng's expression remained indifferent, just casting a cold glance at the Chu Family members before looking back at Luo Yu.
"Leader Luo, bringing so many people here, could it be you want to stand up for the Chu Family?"
This sentence
showed no respect for Luo Yu whatsoever.
His expression turned colder, and the faint smile on his face disappeared completely. "The conflicts and battles of the Martial World are not something the Iron Bone Gang should interfere with, but the Chu Family has some ties with the Iron Bone Gang after all. The Gu Family Master needs to give an explanation for the killing of the Chu Family Head!"
"An explanation?"
Gu Qingfeng looked as if he heard a joke, eyes filled with disdain when he turned to Luo Yu.
"Do you think the Iron Bone Gang is worthy of an explanation from me?"
"Impudent, how dare you disrespect the Gang Leader—"
As the words were spoken, immediately a martial artist from the Iron Bone Gang burst out in anger.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a blur in front of his eyes and then a fierce breeze struck.
"Boom!"
A palm from Gu Qingfeng came down, and the man's head was instantly crushed into his neck, splattering a large amount of fresh blood, and he died on the spot.
The sudden turn of events startled everyone.
Luo Yu flew into a rage, "Gu Qingfeng, how dare you!"
Before his words fell,
Luo Yu took a step forward, his Qi Blood exploding out, forming billowing smoke that rose high, his right fist thundering out with a sky-breaking force, a power capable of splitting mountains and rocks that was truly frightening.
Invincible Divine Fist!
Luo Yu!
A pair of iron fists, that was the formidable weapon of the opponent.
"Bring it on!"
Gu Qingfeng's eyes were cold, his own Qi Blood likewise erupted, the terrifying blood energy soaring straight into the skies.
If Luo Yu's Qi Blood Smoke was only about a dozen feet high, then Gu Qingfeng's current Qi Blood Smoke was five or six dozen feet tall, blood energy enveloping heaven and earth, the scorching hot breath also spreading.
"Impossible!"
Luo Yu's expression changed drastically at the sight of such powerful Qi Blood Smoke, his face full of shock.
But he had no time to ponder it, for Gu Qingfeng's attack was already upon him.
A fierce palm struck out, the palm of his hand like a red-hot branding iron, colliding with Luo Yu's fist, the powerful force exploding out from between them, Gu Qingfeng's body remaining as steady as a boulder.
On the other hand.
Luo Yu only felt a terrifyingly hot breath suddenly burst from his fist, then aggressively invade his body, the powerful recoil forcing him to retreat backwards more than a dozen steps.
"You… *cough*!"
Luo Yu had just opened his mouth wanting to say something when he felt that scorching breath invade his five internal organs, prompting him to spit out blood, his complexion instantly turning deathly pale.
Defeated!
In a single exchange, Iron Bone Gang Leader Luo Yu was injured and fell.
The impact of this scene on the crowd was even more shocking than when Gu Qingfeng had killed Chu Tianxiong with a punch just moments before.
Who was Luo Yu?
A top expert of White Stone Dao.
He founded the Iron Bone Gang with his own strength, his Divine Fist unmatched across the White Stone Dao.
Such a high-level expert had been defeated by Gu Qingfeng in a single exchange, and the latter's strength was even more astonishing.
"This is your strength? I'm somewhat disappointed."
Gu Qingfeng shook his head slightly, his face full of regret.
He had thought that Luo Yu, who had been famous for many years, would be powerful, but it turned out to be just so-so.
The opponent's strength was at best comparable to his own a month ago.
Now that Gu Qingfeng had cultivated the Fiery Sun Divine Palm to the Ninth Layer Perfection and stepped into the half-step Bone Refining Realm with his cultivation, a martial artist like Luo Yu no longer caught his eye.
"Do you have any last words?"
*cough cough*... "Iron Bone Gang will no longer interfere with the affairs of the Chu Family, I hope the Gu Family Master can spare my life!"
Luo Yu's face was as pale as death, and now he, the Gang Leader, disregarded his dignity, enduring the burning agony in his organs, and directly started begging for mercy.
Hearing his words, Gu Qingfeng shook his head slightly.
"Is that your last words?"
Meanwhile,
Gu Qingfeng slowly walked towards Luo Yu.
Seeing this,
The latter's complexion was filled with panic, "You can't kill me, behind me stands the Divine Martial King, if you kill me, the Divine Martial King will not let you off..."
Ignoring the threat, Gu Qingfeng struck out with a palm, directly smashing Luo Yu's head, and thus, the Iron Bone Gang Leader met his end.
After killing Luo Yu,
Gu Qingfeng looked towards the members of the Iron Bone Gang and the Chu Family, a smile appearing on his face, though it seemed extremely cruel and cold.
"Kill, leave none from Iron Bone Gang and Chu Family alive today!"
As soon as his words ended,
Gu Qingfeng had already started a ruthless massacre.
