Chapter 48: Chapter 48: You call that… a sword?

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

The faces of Qin Tian, Hong Ming, and others, originally lit with excitement, froze.

One punch.

Xue An had defeated Yu Qing with just one punch?

Tan Dong was even more dumbfounded.

Although he believed Xue An could win, he thought it would at least be after a hard fight.

But he had never expected it to be this easy.

However, the most shocked of all was Tan Xiaoyu.

She had been studying taekwondo abroad since her childhood and had once believed herself to be world-class.

This time, coming back to China, she was eager to try herself, thinking she could surely make a name for herself.

But against Yu Qing, she didn’t even last one move.

The blow to Tan Xiaoyu was already huge enough.

But what she hadn’t expected was that afterwards, Xue An would defeat Yu Qing with a single punch.

From the beginning, Tan Xiaoyu hadn’t thought highly of Xue An.

Now, this fact was like a loud slap across Tan Xiaoyu’s face.

The look in Tan Xiaoyu’s eyes toward Xue An became complicated.

Especially when she thought about her previous behavior, Tan Xiaoyu felt her face burning up.

Just when Tan Dong and others thought the outcome was decided.

A fierce and unparalleled aura came from the fishpond, enveloping the entire place.

What is this…?

Tan Xiaoyu and others were still in shock.

Yu Qing, looking disheveled, slowly walked out of the fishpond, then stared at Xue An with a murderous gaze.

“I was going to make it quick for you, but now I’ve changed my mind, I’m going to chop you up bit by bit!” Yu Qing said sinisterly.

With Yu Qing’s words, the aura emanating from him grew increasingly powerful.

“You should feel honored for this, because there are very few people who are worth my using it!” Yu Qing said, slowly drawing a long sword from his waist.

The sword, flexible in material, was usually wrapped around Yu Qing’s waist like a belt, but when drawn, it instantly turned into a sword as clear as autumn water.

The sword Qi emanating was so cold that it made Tan Dong and others involuntarily retreat several steps.

Hong Ming and Qin Tian were ecstatic. “Yu the formidable is unmatched in valor!”

“Master Yu is indeed formidable!”

Yu Qing, full of pride, gently stroked the back of the sword, “This sword! Named Qiushui, if unsheathed it must see blood, under which more than twenty masters have died, including three experts from the Xiaoyao Realm!”

“Today, I will use this sword to sever your head!” Yu Qing declared, pausing after each word.

Xue An raised an eyebrow slightly and said nonchalantly, “Are you done with the nonsense?”

Yu Qing yelled in anger, and the sword in his hand suddenly transformed into a gleam of sword light, heading straight for Xue An.

Fast!

In that instant, it seemed as though there was only that sword left between heaven and earth.

And where the sword light passed, the grass and trees in the courtyard were all severed,

Xue An, however, didn’t even move, as if he was stunned by the momentum of the sword.

A cruel smile appeared on the corner of Yu Qing’s mouth.

He made his name with his fists, but few knew that his strongest skill was actually his swordsmanship!

This sword strike was the strongest he had ever delivered since his debut.

And it even vaguely possessed the essence of the Dao.

Yu Qing seemed to see the scene a moment later when Xue An would be dead with his head severed from his body.

This excited Yu Qing so much that his whole body trembled.

But the next moment, all that excitement turned to naught.

Because his sword… was caught by Xue An with one hand!

That’s right!

With one hand, Xue An had grasped the apparently irresistible sword.

Yu Qing was struck with disbelief, about to say something.

Xue An said indifferently, “And this… you call a sword?”

As he spoke, he applied a slight force with his hand.

Crack!

The Autumn Water long sword was mercilessly crushed by Xue An.

Yu Qing’s eyes nearly popped out.

Is this guy even human?

Not only did he block a sword with his bare hands, but he also crushed it?

At the same time, Yu Qing felt a strong sense of crisis looming.

As an expert who had entered Xiaoyao, Yu Qing reacted extremely fast, realizing the fight was futile, and turned to run.

Xue An said with a faint smile, “Do you really think you can get away?

As he spoke, the aura emanating from Xue An began to soar rapidly, and in an instant, a terrifying presence had locked onto Yu Qing.

Xiaoyao!

He was also in the Xiaoyao Realm!

Everyone was completely shocked.

Yu Qing was so frightened he felt his soul leaving his body.

The earth-shattering aura from last night, it was him!

In that moment, Yu Qing was filled with regret.

If he had known Xue An was so formidable, Yu Qing would never have dared to engage in battle so recklessly.

But now it was too late for regrets.

Yu Qing ran frantically outward.

He saw that once he climbed over the wall in front of him, he would be out of the Hong Family’s territory.

A trace of joy flashed through Yu Qing’s eyes.

As long as he could escape from here and go back, he would definitely tell his teacher, who would personally come down the mountain, surely capable of dealing with this Xue An.

But his wishful thinking was soon dashed to pieces.

Because Xue An calmly stated, “Watch my punch… that moves heaven and earth!”

This punch, which he had previously used at the auction, had killed Liu Shou in one blow.

But this time, its power had increased more than tenfold.

Xue An’s punch seemed to hit empty space, but the entire space appeared to be overturned by it.

Everyone was thrown to the ground, and Yu Qing was sent tumbling across the earth by the punch.

Spurt.

A mouthful of fresh blood mixed with fragments of organs spewed out.

This punch had shattered Yu Qing’s spine.

Xue An withdrew his fist and walked slowly over to Yu Qing.

“What… what kind of boxing is this?” Yu Qing, coughing up blood profusely, nevertheless insisted on asking.

“This punch is called ‘Move Heaven and Earth’!” Xue An declared.

“Move Heaven and Earth… Good, good technique! I… I’ve lost!” After speaking, the light in Yu Qing’s eyes rapidly dimmed.

Yu Qing was dead!

Dead from two punches dealt by Xue An!

Xue An looked up at the dumbfounded Hong Ming and Qin Tian.

“It seems we really are fated!” said Xue An lightly.

Hong Ming was so scared his legs gave out, and he knelt on the ground, crying and shouting, “Xue An, no, no, Mr. Xue, I was wrong, I shouldn’t have opposed you! Please spare me this once!”

Qin Tian, on the other hand, was pale and looked at Xue An with lifeless eyes before finally saying in resignation, “I’ve lost. Kill or flay me, as you wish!” Xue An glanced at the two men and turned to leave.

He couldn’t be bothered to kill these few fools; he would leave the rest to Qin Yu to worry about!

Probably, Beijiang would no longer have the Hong Family!

Watching Xue An’s retreating figure, Tan Xiaoyu experienced a rush of mixed emotions, unsure of what to feel.

From initial disdain to subsequent shock, this man had brought too many incredibilities to Tan Xiaoyu.

And now, Tan Xiaoyu realized an even more brutal truth.

That was Xue An had never cared about her from the start.

Whether she had initially looked down on him or despised him, it didn’t matter to him at all.

This realization made Tan Xiaoyu understand that she was nothing!

This left Tan Xiaoyu immensely dejected..
