Chapter 5302 Almost Dead
“Puff!”
With a soft thud, David felt as if a mountain had hit his back, sending him flying like a kite whose string had snapped. He
It struck the dome of the Temple of the Sacred Light hard, puncturing its sturdy glass tiles. It landed awkwardly in the plaza outside.
“David!”
Hu Mazi and Mo Chen shouted in unison, no longer caring about anything else as they rushed towards David.
Wang Shengguang’s figure appeared above the plaza, staring down at David, who lay sprawled on the ground like a dead dog. A cruel smile spread across his face. “The Sanxian Realm is still the Sanxian Realm. Even if you’re a genius, you won’t be able to transcend the realm to challenge me.”
He raised his right hand, and a dazzling ball of light, as bright as the sun, coalesced in his palm. The power within it distorted the air.
“It is over.”
The ball of light slowly descended towards David, melting the ground wherever it passed, emitting white smoke.
Just at that moment, Hu Mazi and Mo Chen finally arrived at David’s side.
Hu Mazi summoned all his talismans, forming a thick wall. Mo Chen held his sword in front of him. The two men simultaneously channeled their spiritual energy, attempting to fend off the deadly attack.
“You overestimate your abilities,” Wang Shengguang snorted coldly, and the ball of light in his palm trembled slightly.
“Bang!”
The walls and sword energy shattered before the ball of light. Hu Mazi and Mo Chen spat out blood and were sent flying backward, hitting the ground hard, their lives uncertain.
David tried to lift his head, looking at the two unconscious men, his eyes red.
He tried to stand, but found his limbs numb. The spiritual energy and evil spirit within him were completely distorted, making even moving a finger extremely difficult.
The ball of light drew closer, its intense heat burning his skin.
He could feel the shadow of death looming over him, and hatred filled his heart. Was he going to die here?
Wang Shengguang smiled triumphantly, as if he could already see David being purified to ashes by the holy light.
However, just as the ball of light was about to hit David, a cold voice suddenly echoed through the heavens and earth: “
Your Majesty, oppressing the weak is truly inappropriate.”
Before his words were finished, a brilliant silver sword energy, like a meteor piercing the night sky, shot out from the sky and directly slashed at the golden ball of light.
“Crack!”
A shocking scene unfolded. The golden ball of light, powerful enough to easily obliterate an Earth Immortal cultivator, was split in two by the silver sword energy, then dissipated into thin air like foam.
Wang Shengguang’s expression changed drastically. He suddenly looked up at the sky, his eyes filled with shock and disbelief. “That sword energy… was it you?”
A figure dressed in white stepped through the air, his steps slow, but exuding an aura of dominance.
The newcomer wielded an ancient long sword, his face handsome and his gaze indifferent, as if nothing in this world mattered to him.
David’s pupils constricted as he stared at the newcomer. He had seen this face before!
On the Heavenly Stairs, the sword cultivator Li Chunfeng whom he had saved!
Li Chunfeng landed in front of David and gently swung his sword. Gentle sword energy swept over David, Hu Mazi, and Mo Chen, their wounds healing at a noticeable rate.
He turned and glared at Wang Shengguang. His tone remained calm, but it carried an undeniable murderous intent: “You hurt Mr. Chen, and you must die.”
Wang Shengguang looked at Li Chunfeng, and for the first time, fear crossed his face. His voice trembled slightly. “Li… Li Chunfeng? Haven’t you been missing for hundreds of years? How could you be here?”
“How do you know this David?”
Li Chunfeng did not answer Wang Shengguang’s question, but only said, “Mr. Chen is my teacher.”
Teacher?
The words echoed like thunder in everyone’s ears.
