Chapter 342: Bei Mingxiu Imprisons Chu Kuangren, The Reappearance Of The Headless Lady
“Haha, so what if you can summon multiple sword qi clones? You can’t harm me.”
Bei Mingxiu said nonchalantly.
Chu Kuangren replied calmly, “Indeed, but unfortunately, these sword qi clones are not meant for you.”
The sword qi clones charged towards the crowd and began to slaughter the Scaled Tribe members!
That scene upset Bei Mingxiu deeply.
“B*stard! How dare you kill my clan members?!” Bei Mingxiu stared at Chu Kuangren furiously.
“Did you actually think I was kidding? For each life your clan took from my people, I shall make you pay a thousand times more!” Chu Kuangren said coldly.
“You’re absolutely despicable for taking away innocent lives!”
“Haha, I don’t mind committing even the most abhorrent of crimes if it means protecting the people of Black Heaven Sect! You only have yourself to blame for intruding into my territory!” Chu Kuangren laughed in an almost manic manner.
Were there innocent people within the Scaled Tribe members?
Of course, there were.
However, Chu Kuangren no longer cared. This was the only way he could strike fear into the hearts of the Scaled Tribe, and only then, they would not dare mess with the Black Heaven Sect again!
Only then, the world would fear Chu Kuangren!
“You’re a lunatic!”
The Scaled King stared angrily at Chu Kuangren from afar. How he wished he could just destroy Chu Kuangren into pieces!
At the same time, he felt a sense of guilt within him.
If the Scaled King knew that things would have gone this far, he would not have messed with the Black Heaven Sect and caused so many casualties in his clan.
“Now die!”
In a fit of rage, Bei Mingxiu attacked and brought his halberd’s power to another level.
While Chu Kuangren thought back to the innocent civilians who were brutally murdered by the Scaled Tribe, he too could feel anger rise within him.
“Raging Gods Fist!”
Chu Kuangren let out a fearsome roar, releasing a violent burst of Daoist Rhymes!
As he unleashed an incendiary black fist sign that burned with an eternal flame, the surrounding seawater rose to its boiling point and the middle of the sea started to bubble up.
When Chu Kuangren’s fist sign clashed into the halberd, its destructive force burst and swept across half the castle, reducing the once-glamorous structure to a ramshackle building.
While Bei Mingxiu and Chu Kuangren continued their intense battle, Bei Mingxiu found himself in a difficult situation. As much as he wished to finish off Chu Kuangren as soon as possible to end his killing spree, it was almost impossible to kill him who had the Immortal Body quickly.
At one point, Chu Kuangren even had half of his head torn off before it quickly regenerated. Such abilities struck fear deep within the Scaled Tribe members.
There was nothing more terrifying than a lunatic who possessed an Immortal Body!
Even Bei Mingxiu could feel a chill deep down in him, and he was starting to feel worried in the face of such an uncommon threat as well.
Chu Kuangren was no longer a human to him.
He was more likely a monster!
Meanwhile, Chu Kuangren’s killing spree was still ongoing. Although he had only managed to summon a hundred sword qi clones, each of these clones possessed the combat strength of an Honorable. The normal Scaled Tribe soldiers did not stand a chance.
On the other hand, Bei Minghuan, Bei Mingfang, and the Scaled King were already heavily injured. They may still be able to defend themselves, but they could not stop these clones from rampaging around.
The entire Scaled Tribe had momentarily descended into chaos.
Chu Kuangren’s sword qi clone could not distinguish the innocent from the bad at all. All of them only had a singular goal… to kill anyone on sight!
Just how much damage could a hundred Honourables cause?
The Scaled Tribe was just about to find out.
“Damn it, damn it!”
Bei Mingxiu was reaching the point of desperation. He then channeled the torrential force with his halberd that surged out toward Chu Kuangren.
“Torrential Manacles!”
Under the Torrential Manacles, the manacles sealed Chu Kuangren’s limbs up, effectively immobilizing him. There was no way he could channel any spiritual energy to get out of it.
Bei Mingxiu channeled his entire spiritual energies and grunted, “Since I can’t kill you, the only way is to seal you in the deep sea!”
As Bei Mingxiu let out a deafening roar, the sea bed began to shake and an enormous fissure appeared on its surface. It seemed like Bei Mingxiu wanted to imprison Chu Kuangren in it.
The torrent wrapped around Chu Kuangren and materialized into a bright blue chain that had countless enchantment symbols hovering on it.
“Be my prisoner!”
The blue chains slowly dragged Chu Kuangren downwards towards the dark abyss.
As the sealing property of the chain strengthened, Chu Kuangren’s spiritual energy was also affected, causing his sword qi clones to progressively disappear.
Just before Chu Kuangren was going to be imprisoned, a dark spatial crack emerged within the ocean.
A terrifying Emperor’s Aura emanated everywhere and caused most of its surrounding structure to disintegrate.
Then, copious amounts of seawater were repelled to form a gigantic spherical space within the ocean.
Having been affected by the Emperor’s aura, Bei Mingxiu’s sealing technique began to crack, and the blue chains that once sealed Chu Kuangren weakened. Chu Kuangren saw the opportunity and immediately activated all three Supreme Daoist Physiques before he escaped from the shackles.
Then, Chu Kuangren dashed deep into the ocean and vanished within seconds, not intending to stay any further.
Bei Mingxiu could not be bothered about Chu Kuangren when all of his attention was fixed on the mysterious spatial crack that had formed before him.
A white-clothed, headless figure emerged from the crack. It was the Headless Lady who had massacred the Scaled Tribe members on the unnamed island.
“It’s her. It’s her!”
“Damn it, why is she here?!”
Bei Mingxiu knew about the existence of the Headless Lady, and despite originating from an unknown land, he was extremely fearful of her.
He now understood why Chu Kuangren ran as fast as possible.
Very few in this world could reserve their calmness before the Headless Lady, not even Sages nor Great Sages.
“Run!”
Bei Mingxiu immediately dashed for the door to the Bottomless Chasm.
He no longer cared about the other Scaled Tribe members. Bei Mingxiu would consider himself lucky if he could make it out alive.
However, before he could reach the door to the Bottomless Chasm, the Headless Lady gently cast a technique towards Bei Mingxiu’s direction.
A surge of insurmountable energy fell onto Bei Mingxiu’s body. In the blink of an eye, the Forth Scaled King also known as a Seventh-Step Great Sage who was wielding the Golden Halberd exploded into a cloud of blood mist.
What remained of him was his head, floating aimlessly in the waters.
The Headless Lady leaped forward to grab Bei Mingxiu’s head before pressing it onto her torso.
Alas, after two tries, the head was not the one she was looking for. With her delicate fingers, the Headless Lady proceeded to press lightly onto Bei Mingxiu’s head, mushing it into pulps.
This was the second time the Headless Lady had sensed the presence of her head only to not find it. The Headless Lady’s patience was wearing thin. She unleashed her devastating Emperor’s aura around her.
Bei Mingfang, Bei Minghuan, and the Scaled King were the first to feel her power. Their flesh and bones instantly shattered under her aura before their life essence was sucked dry by the Headless Lady and they became a pile of dried corpses.
The Headless Lady’s aura rippled outwards, and countless Scaled Tribe members had their life essences sucked out of them. They could not even resist at all.
Thousands of kilometers of sea area were now a dead sea.
In a mere few seconds, the Headless Lady’s death count had far surpassed what Chu Kuangren could accomplish in hours.
