Chapter 293   Easy Kill

“Master Xu, what are you doing?” Gong Weiyi quickly reacted and subconsciously protected Gao Jian.

He looked at Xu Ning with dissatisfaction, but his rationality made him restrain himself.

“Xu Ning, what’s wrong?”

Zhang He was also a little serious. He knew Xu Ning well, so he knew that Xu Ning was not the kind of person who would bully others.

“Ask him.”

Xu Ning stared at Gao Jian coldly. “Who exactly are you?”

“Master Xu, this is my beloved disciple Gao Jian…”

Gong Weiyi was confused.

However, while he was defending Gao Jian, Gao Jian had a strange look on his face.

Gao Jian then laughed.

“Amazing!”

After Gao Jian praised Xu Ning, his nervousness disappeared, and it was replaced by arrogance.

“You are only in the core transformation realm, but you can already sense my true state. Truly amazing!” The smile on Gao Jian’s face disappeared, and a murderous intent began to appear. “Gao Jian, no, you are not Gao Jian!

are

Gong Weiyi also noticed the abnormality.

The aura of his beloved disciple began to rise, and his appearance also changed.

In the blink of an eye, Gao Jian’s handsome face turned into a feminine man.

The aura on his body was no longer in the astral qi realm and instead, it made Gong Weiyi and Zhang He feel pressured.

‘Dao realm seventh stage, elementary origin realm!’

Gong Weiyi and Zhang He were shocked. “Who are you and why are you here? Where is my disciple Gao Jian?”

Gong Weiyi pulled the stunned disciple Chu Shan over and asked the feminine man.

His mind was still in a state of shock.

“I wanted to spare your lives, but now that my identity is exposed, I can only be ruthless!”

A gust of air spread out from the feminine man’s body, blowing up the entire carriage.

Gong Weiyi and Zhang He were also repelled with blood flowing out of their mouths.

Especially Gong Weiyi, in order to protect his disciple Chu Shan, his internal organs were seriously injured.

At the same time, this gust of air also overturned the surrounding carriages and the soldiers of the mansion.

In just a moment, the group that was returning to the city fell into chaos.

“Huh?”

The feminine man noticed that Xu Ning, who had first discovered his identity, was standing not far away and was staring straight at him.

There seemed to be a look of eagerness in his eyes.

He seemed to be provoking him.

This offended the feminine man.

This was a provocation from a core transformation realm master to an elementary origin realm master.

“It seems that you still don’t know how powerful an elementary origin realm master who has comprehended the power of origin is!” The feminine man raised his palm.

Then, a white light flashed above everyone’s head.

A pure white sword apparition suddenly rushed down towards Xu Ning’s head.

“Xu Ning, be careful!”

After sensing the terrifying aura of the pure white sword apparition, Zhang He quickly reminded.

Zhang He felt that he would be killed in one blow under that pure white sword.

However, Xu Ning remained calm. Just when the pure white sword apparition was about to pierce through Xu Ning’s skull, a Void Beast phantom suddenly appeared behind Xu Ning. The Void Beast roared.

In an instant, the space above Xu Ning’s head was twisted, and the pure white sword apparition instantly shattered.

‘Such a strong origin technique!?’

The feminine man’s pupils shrank.

His origin technique had been blocked by the opponent’s origin technique.

Seeing this, the feminine man immediately put away his previous contempt, looking as though he was facing a great enemy.

“Void Walk Beast Phantom, Night Weaver!”

Immediately after, another demon beast phantom appeared behind Xu Ning.

This time, it was the Night Beast.

The feminine man suddenly felt his vision go dark.

This was not visual darkness, but the kind of darkness that sucked away all perception.

‘Not good!’

The feminine man panicked and quickly activated his only trace of origin power, wanting to break free from this state.

However, just when he was trying his best to escape from the endless darkness, the Flowing Cloud Piercer had already arrived in front of

him.

Pfft!

The Flowing Cloud Piercer pierced through the feminine man’s head.

Boom!

The power stored in the Flowing Cloud Piercer exploded.

The feminine man died on the spot.

‘Is this my current strength…’

Xu Ning killed the elementary origin realm master in front of him in a matter of seconds.

He didn’t expect this.

Xu Ning knew that he had the strength to kill enemies above his realm, but Xu Ning still felt that it was unreal.

Although this was partly due to the opponent’s underestimation of his strength and the surprising effect of the bloodline power of the Void Beast and the Night Beast, this still couldn’t cover Xu Ning’s truly high combat power. “Xu Ning…” Zhang He saw the feminine man’s head explode in front of him. Looking at the scene, he still hadn’t recovered from the huge impact.

Gong Weiyi felt his brain buzzing. This had exceeded his martial arts knowledge.

The female disciple behind him, Chu Shan, looked at Xu Ning with burning respect and admiration.

That was an elementary origin realm master!

He was killed by a core transformation realm master in such a short time.

At this moment, some people still didn’t know what was going on.

Xu Ning walked next to the feminine man and searched his body.

‘Aura Concealment Ring!’

Soon, Xu Ning found a ring on the feminine man’s finger.

Although the design of this Aura Concealment Ring was different from Xu Ning’s, after checking it, he found that its activation mechanism was exactly the same as his own.

‘This elementary origin realm master is from the Hidden Sect!

Xu Ning immediately determined this person’s identity.

After all, the Aura Concealment Ring in Xu Ning’s hand was also obtained from the hands of the Hidden Sect.

“Xu Ning!”

After a while, Zhang He woke up from his stupor.

He quickly got up and walked to Xu Ning’s side.

“What’s going on?”

Zhang He quickly asked. “This person is from the Hidden Sect.”

Xu Ning said, “He disguised himself as a disciple of the Shock Sect.”

“This…” Zhang He instantly realized the seriousness of the situation.

The purpose of the Hidden Sect infiltrating the Shock Sect to enter the city at this period of time was obvious.

This was definitely a scheme to hurt Duan Chaofeng.

“What?”

At this moment, Gong Weiyi also walked over.

When he heard Xu Ning’s words, he was shocked.

Gong Weiyi had no time to think about where his true disciple Gao Jian had gone.

He knew very well that if Xu Ning had not discovered and killed this person, the consequences would have been disastrous.

Once this person hurt Duan Chaofeng, even if they found out that he was not from the Shock Sect, the Shock Sect would suffer severe consequences because of his mistakes.

Forget about whether they could survive, the sect might not even be able to survive this blunder.

The fury of the Duan royal family would definitely implicate him and the Shock Sect.

“I have to report this quickly!”

Zhang He said.

Xu Ning nodded. ‘What a shame…’

If Xu Ning knew that he was only this strong, he would have spared this person’s life just now.

That way, he could have interrogated him for some useful information.

Xu Ning searched the feminine man’s body and found a storage ring. Xu Ning checked and found that there were some resources stored inside, which were worth less than 5 million units of energy. After checking the contents of the storage ring, if there were no suspicious resources, Xu Ning could put it in his bag.

“Sect Master Gong, you were too careless.” Zhang He turned his head. His attitude towards Gong Weiyi had changed.

“Yes…”

Gong Weiyi smiled bitterly.

“Come with us to see His Highness. As for the people from the Shock Sect, don’t go into the city just yet.”

Zhang He said.

Afterwards, Xu Ning, Zhang He, and Gong Weiyi rushed to the Harmony King Mansion in the city.

“There’s such a thing?”

In the study, Duan Chaofeng looked at Xu Ning and the other two with a black face.

Xu Ning and the other two had already explained the situation to Duan Chaofeng.

Duan Chaofeng, who was about to inherit the position of the Harmony King, had been in high spirits recently, but when he heard that someone from the Hidden Sect might be secretly plotting against him, Duan Chaofeng’s mood was completely ruined.

“Your Highness, now that the people of the Hidden Sect are appearing more and more frequently in State Wansheng, many evil deeds are being committed everyday. They must be planning something for them to appear here.”

“Since one person can sneak into the sect and approach you through the participation ceremony, then it is possible that there are others lurking in the dark. There might be other spies from the Hidden Sect among the other guests who came to the city a few days ago. If they sneak into the ceremony, then your safety will be difficult to guarantee.” Zhang He explained his analysis with much consideration.

“That’s right.”

Duan Chaofeng agreed. “We have to investigate and pull out the hidden dangers.”

“Your Highness, if we want to solve this matter quickly, not only do we have to borrow the power of the mansion, but also the power of the Imperial Court. We should send this news to Lord State Overseer and ask him to use the Imperial Court’s forces to investigate the people of the Hidden Sect.”

Zhang He added.

“Yes, that should be the case.”

Duan Zhaofeng said, “The various factions of the Imperial Court are also increasing their efforts to eliminate the Hidden Sect.”

“Zhang He, I’ll leave this matter to you.”

Duan Chaofeng said.

“Yes.”

With that, Zhang He turned around and left.

“Your Highness, because of my negligence, you were almost in danger. Please punish me.”

At this moment, Gong Weiyi said.

“It’s not your fault.”

Duan Chaofeng did not blame him. “It’s normal for you to not be able to defend against an elementary origin realm master. You don’t have to feel too ashamed.”

“Thank you, Your Highness.”

Gong Weiyi was relieved. He knew that he had avoided this calamity.

“But you, Xu Ning…”

Duan Chaofeng looked at Xu Ning, and his words were cut off mid-sentence. It seemed like there was no need to praise him. This was not the first time Xu Ning had done this.

Although this time, it was a massive difference, because a core transformation realm had killed an elementary origin realm.
