Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1757 - 1754: Wild Boasts

Xuanxiao witnessed the core node of the Seven Extremes Formation shatter loudly, and the seven elders fell to the ground heavily like kites with broken strings, spitting blood, their fates unknown.

In an instant, despair surged like a tide, completely drowning his heart.

But as the Sect Leader of the Xuanyin Sect, tasked with safeguarding the dignity and honor of the sect, how could he watch the Xuanyin Sect be humiliated under his leadership? How could he tolerate Xu Wendong, a Foundation Establishment Stage "ant," to trample the sect wantonly and walk away unscathed?

"No! I will never allow you to destroy the Xuanyin Sect!" Xuanxiao let out a heartrending roar of anger, filled with unwillingness and determination.

He forcefully gathered the remaining True Qi in his body, as if to squeeze out his last ounce of strength.

The longsword in his hand glowed intensely, like a burning sun, and his aura surged once again.

Even though his breath was as weak as a flickering candle in the wind, his obsession stopped him from giving up. He would engage in one last beastly struggle, even though his strength was spent.

He charged towards Xu Wendong recklessly, his form flickering like a ghost.

The longsword in his hand swung out shadow after shadow, each shadow carrying his last madness and unwillingness, like meteors cutting through the night sky, bringing destructive power towards Xu Wendong.

Xu Wendong, seeing this, curled the corner of his mouth in a contemptuous cold smile, his eyes full of disdain.

Facing Xuanxiao’s attack, he flashed and easily dodged like a nimble fish.

"With just your current power, you want to stop me? It’s nothing but a fool’s dream!" Xu Wendong’s voice was ice-cold, as if coming from the Nine Nether Hell, chilling to the bone.

Xuanxiao missed his strike, stumbled, nearly falling to the ground.

He steadied himself, glaring at Xu Wendong, his eyes filled with anger and unwillingness, as if wanting to swallow Xu Wendong alive.

"The path you chose yourself, who can you blame now?" Xu Wendong looked at him with a mocking smile.

He had already given him a chance before.

As long as the Xuanyin Sect released Ye Qiu, he would naturally leave.

But...

Not only did they not release Ye Qiu, they even activated the so-called Seven Extremes Formation. Since that’s the case, he had no need to hold back anymore.

"You... who are you really?" Xuanxiao asked, his face dark, looking at Xu Wendong, yearning to discover Xu Wendong’s background, even if he was on the brink of death.

Clearly just a Foundation Establishment Peak cultivator, yet his strength was powerful to a despairing degree.

If he couldn’t understand his origin, he wouldn’t die in peace!

"I..."

Xu Wendong just opened his mouth when suddenly a thunderous voice echoed under the night sky: "Daoist friend Xuanxiao, we have come to lend you a hand!"

Accompanied by that deafening shout, silhouettes densely appeared on the horizon, rolling in like surging tides.

Leading the group, several powerful figures exuded True Qi like impending eruptive volcanoes, releasing a terrifying aura that made souls tremble.

In a blink, they arrived at the battlefield, thoroughly surrounding Xu Wendong at the center.

Xuanxiao, seeing these reinforcements, was instantly filled with a gleam of joy and hope in his previously lifeless eyes, and a hint of vitality appeared on his bloodless face.

He had never thought they would show up, making him feel deeply surprised yet more so excited.

Coming back to his senses, Xuanxiao spoke, "Fellow Daoists, if we do not subdue this arrogant one today, my Xuanyin Sect will surely fall, and the entire cultivation world might be plunged into an endless disaster!"

His voice was hoarse and urgent, each word filled with profound concern for the sect and the cultivation world.

Among the numerous strong allies, a middle-aged man in a luxurious golden robe, holding an exquisite folding fan, stepped out steadily.

His gaze, like lightning, swept sharply across the devastated battlefield, finally fixing his cold stare on Xu Wendong, releasing a disdainful sneer: "Hmph, just a mere Foundation Establishment cultivator, so arrogantly rampant; today marks your end!"

As soon as he finished, he lightly flicked his folding fan, sending a dazzling golden True Qi surging like an enraged flood dragon, roaring towards Xu Wendong.

Where it passed, the space rippled, like a calm lake shattered by a boulder, creating distorted waves.

Xu Wendong, with a casual wave, astonishingly knocked away that terrifying attack under everyone’s shocked gazes. He slightly squinted, looking at the crowd: "Everyone, we bear no old grudge nor recent enmity. Why interfere in my matter with the Xuanyin Sect?"

The middle-aged man snorted coldly: "Xuanyin Sect is akin to a pyramid among the cultivation forces of our province. If Xuanyin Sect falls due to you today, it won’t be long before we face utter destruction too!"

"As the saying goes, when the nest is overturned, no egg remains intact, how can we watch Xuanyin Sect head towards destruction?"

Everyone spoke up, determined to protect Xuanyin Sect.

Some said their presence was to repay a debt of gratitude to Xuanyin Sect.

It turned out, Xuanyin Sect, having operated for years in the cultivation world, was intricately intertwined with many forces, deeply entangled in interests.

Furthermore, Xuanxiao had previously bestowed favors widely, forming alliances with numerous sects.

Upon hearing of Xuanyin Sect’s crisis, these forces, recalling past relations and fearing Xu Wendong’s unchecked audacity might threaten the entire cultivation world’s order, hence their own interests, were swiftly compelled to aid Xuanxiao.

Learning of their intentions, Xu Wendong displayed a thoughtful smile: "Didn’t expect you would be so united!"

"Enough! Enough!"

"In consideration of your unity, I will show mercy today and spare you a way out."

"However, you must release my friend." He looked at Xuanxiao calmly, no longer intending to eradicate Xuanyin Sect.

As these words fell.

The crowd was momentarily stunned before bursting into hearty laughter.

The laughter was full of mockery and disdain, as if hearing the most absurd joke in the world.

"Hahahahaha, has the kid been scared out of his mind? Speaking such madness, claiming to spare us a way out?" A burly man laughed heartily, eyes full of contempt.

"Hmph, utterly shameless! A Foundation Establishment little cultivator, does he really think himself a peerless powerhouse?" said an elder in a black robe, holding a staff, his face filled with disdain.

The middle-aged man with the folding fan sneered repeatedly, slowly closing the fan, stepping forward, glaring at Xu Wendong like a knife: "Today you cannot escape, yet you dare utter such wild words here? It’s utterly delusional!"

Xuanxiao, stabilizing himself, enduring the pain, eyes flashing with venomous light: "You arrogant madman, even at this stage, how dare you be so arrogant?!"

"Don’t mention freeing your friend, I will tear you to pieces to vent my hatred!"
