Chapter 159 Just Waiting for Death!

On hearing the news that Chu Xun came back, King of Poison and other elders of the sect felt like struck by lightning. They jumped off in a rage.

“What did you say? Say it again.” King of Poison was so astonished that he was rendered speechless.

“That demon... came back at us. He has reached the entrance of the valley...” Before the disciple could finish his words, he passed out due to blood loss.

“How could it be possible?” an elder said in disbelief.

Wasn’t Chu Xun in the territory of Wuji Sect in Xiafei City? How come he appeared here?

“Don’t panic. There are poison traps at the entrance. It’s possible he can’t break in,” another elder said.

However, no one echoed his words because everyone could hear the uncertainty and doubt in his tone.

...

...

All the people believed that Chu Xun was in Xiafei City, but it turned out that he deceived them all.

With the advanced communication methods in the world, Chu Xun guessed that the Wuji Sect must have known the news of the Golden Knife Sect being slaughtered. Thus, he did not think the people of the Wuji Sect would be so stupid to wait for him to take revenge against them.

As a result, he sneaked to the Poison Sect.

If he wanted to hide his whereabouts, few could track him in the world.

As Chu Xun lifted his hands, True Energy surged.

Boom!

The huge stone engraved with the words “Poison Sect” was blown off and broken into pieces.

The disciples of the sect all became frightened and escaped into the valley in panic, like stray dogs.

There was a pungent smell of blood in the air, and the ground became red with blood. Several corpses lay there randomly.

Those dead disciples were in the Innate Realm and Acquired Realm, responsible for guarding the entrance of the valley.

Weak they might be, they were good at calling others names.

Chu Xun walked forward.

Buzz!

There were sounds of a group of flies flapping their wings.

Chu Xun raised his eyebrows when he found the light darkened in front of him.

Countless poisonous flies as big as the nail of little finger swarmed toward Chu Xun, covering the sky.

The buzzing sound was so annoying and deafening.

Chu Xun raised his hand again, his body surrounded by surging True Energy.

A cry of a phoenix covered the annoying buzz. The phoenix bathing the heavenly fire spread out its wings and dived at the flies with a raging fire.

It flew over, destroying everything on its way.

Where it passed, everything burned out, including the flies, the plants, and even the stones.

If Emperor Ao knew that Chu Xun used a move of Eternal Phoenix Scripture to fight flies, how would he react?

Chu Xun moved on.

He went over 20 meters deeper into the valley.

Croak!

The awful croaking voices of the frogs caused Chu Xun to be covered with gooseflesh.

On a huge green rock lay a red toad about the size of a washbasin, and its back was full of lumps. It stared at Chu Xun with its dark eyes.

A bird in bright color flew low across the sky.

Swish!

A red flash appeared at a lightning speed, which turned out to be the tongue of the toad. It was over ten meters long and stuck to the flying bird and swallowed it.

Chu Xun saw clearly that the moment the bird was rolled into the toad’s mouth, it was corroded and dissolved.

After swallowing the bird, the toad looked at Chu Xun with its dark and icy eyes.

Swoosh!

The toad extended its sticky tongue toward Chu Xun like a beam of red light.

Chu Xun felt disgusted. He was a little squeamish, and hated those things like toads the most. He felt sick looking at it.

Swoosh!

A beam of white light flashed, quicker than the toad’s tongue.

Puff!

As the light flashed, the toad’s tongue was cut off.

Croak!

The toad screamed in pain.

However, the white light did not stop, and cut the toad into two pieces at an amazing speed.

Sizzle...!

Green fluids flew out of the toad’s broken body and corroded the huge rock under it. White smoke rose where it was corroded.

Chu Xun felt so disgusted that he walked away quickly and even did not withdraw that Reincarnation Line, which dissipated in the air.

He went several dozens of meters deeper into the valley.

In front of him, there was a dozen black fist-sized spiders on a tree branch as wide as a human arm.

However, a Reincarnation Line that appeared out of nowhere pierced through them from the belly.

Snap!

Blood scattered, and a strange snake with a cockscomb on the head and as thick as a child’s arm was ground into bits by an invisible force.

Boom!

The ground cracked, and a black snake as long as a chopstick exploded into pieces.

The valley was immediately covered by dense green smoke and fell silent without any trace of living beings.

Chu Xun walked through the smoke non-stop.

...

...

In the valley, King of Poison and others were stunned.

His poison traps did not work on Chu Xun at all.

“What should we do now, chief?” someone asked in a panic.

King of Poison answered in a low voice with his eyes full of anger, “You guys hold him off, and I’ll go to draw out the Holy Beast.”

The words stunned everyone.

The reason why King of Poison said he would draw the Holy Beast out was that it had not been tamed. Once the beast came out, it would attack whoever it was.

“Hurry up!” King of Poison shouted. He had no other choice now.

Since Chu Xun would not retreat himself, King of Poison had to take a risk so as to survive.

Obviously, others knew this as well. They rushed out biting their lips. The scene of them going on a way of death was so moving and tragic.

...

Chu Xun stopped moving, looking at the dozen people in front of him.

“The elders of the Poison Sect welcome your arrival, Senior Chu.”

“Your presence brings light to our humble valley and honors us so much, Immortal Chu.”

“You must be very tired after this long way, Immortal Chu. We’ve prepared some tea for you.”

Their mission was to delay Chu Xun.

Though they hadn’t fought with Chu Xun, they knew very well that they were no match for him.

Now, all they needed to do was to hold Chu Xun off until King of Poison drew out the Holy Beast.

The elder who said that they had prepared some tea actually walked to Chu Xun in unhurried steps, holding a cup of tea with both hands. He looked neither haughty nor humble.

When he got close to Chu Xun, he bowed and said respectfully, “Senior Chu, please have some tea. I know there are misunderstandings between us, and I know your purpose here as well. But please wait for a minute, King of Poison has been delayed by something, and he will be here soon. I’m sure he will give you a satisfactory reply.”

The elder was in his sixties, and he behaved so humbly in front of Chu Xun and called him senior, yet he did not look embarrassed at all.

Chu Xun accepted the tea and took a sip.

The elder was stunned. He had not expected Chu Xun to drink it. If he had known this, he would have put poison into the tea.

Others shared his feeling. If they had known that Chu Xun was so imprudent, they would have put poison into the tea.

“I’m still not clear about one thing. Could you please help me dispel my doubt, senior?” the elder held the cup that Chu Xun drained and asked respectfully.

“Go ahead,” Chu Xun replied indifferently.

A trace of complacency flashed within the elder’s eyes. He glanced at others minutely as if he were saying, “Look, I held him off on my own.”

“May I ask, senior, what should we do to make you let us off?”

Chu Xun looked at him and raised the corner of his lips. He replied with a meaningful expression, “All you need to do is waiting for death.”

As his voice fell, he lifted his fist and punched. The wind caused by his fist distorted the air with exploding sounds.

The elder, who was also a Grandmaster, immediately turned pale. He crossed his hands subconsciously to defend himself and shouted in horror, “Senior, please don’t...”

...

Bang... Crack...!

The elder’s voice stopped all of a sudden, and he was sent flying backward in the air, spurting out a blood fog before falling onto the ground a dozen meters away.

The expressions of the other elders of the Poison Sect froze. They widened their eyes in horror.

The elder who was punched away by Chu Xun got his arms broken and his chest sunk, exposing his bones. There was a big hole on his back, and he died completely.

Seeing that Chu Xun killed the elder with one punch, everyone present was shocked.

“Why did he do this? They were talking peacefully just now, and he suddenly killed this elder without any warning.”

What a poor guy the elder was. A minute ago, he felt complacent secretly for he thought he had held Chu Xun off on his own.

As a matter of fact, they all forgot that being brutal and attacking at will were the style of the demon-like Chu Xun.
