When he arrived at the location previously indicated, he brushed away the surface snow.

He found that apart from scattered bloodstains on the ground, there were only two broken jade slips.

Zhao Beichen’s throat moved with difficulty, and his face twitched uncontrollably!

He realized that he might have underestimated the opponent’s strength!

It seemed that the opponent’s power was not inferior to his own, and might even be stronger!

Recalling what Elder Miao once said, that when Li Guanqi awakened his spirit ruin, it was an unprecedented red color.

It seemed that the opponent’s spirit ruin was at least of king grade, or possibly even the legendary saint grade that was rarely seen in ten thousand years!

Zhao Beichen knew that the fate of these two disciples was grim. He took a deep breath.

Exhaling slowly, his eyes flickered as he made a decision, turning to search for Li Hua and the others!

Any disciple of the Purple Sun Hall could die, but not Li Hua!!

Because Li Hua was the biological son of the third elder of the Tianxiao Sect.

The Tianxiao Sect was one of the three sects above the six halls!

If Li Hua died, the Purple Sun Hall would surely face retribution!

Swish!!

Seeing the two figures standing on the withered tree, Zhao Beichen finally felt relieved.

He flashed to their side and said in a deep voice, “You two, leave quickly! Just the few of us can’t kill him!”

“Report to the elder immediately and tell him what’s happening here!”

As he spoke, Zhao Beichen took out a human skin mask from his storage ring, followed by a versatile talisman.

This seal talisman was particularly precious, made from the leather of a demon beast.

It could perfectly mimic another person’s aura, while the human skin mask could replicate Zhao Beichen’s face.

Li Hua looked at Zhao Beichen, who was acting as if facing a formidable enemy, and said in confusion.

“Did he really kill four people so quickly?”

While imprinting his face, Zhao Beichen spoke rapidly.

“He only killed Rong Jiang and Yuan Kai. We don’t know about Xu Ming and Lu Fengyu yet, but they are probably doomed too!”

He stuck the seal talisman on Li Hua, handed him his sword, and carefully affixed the human skin mask.

“Remember, from now on, you are Zhao Beichen!”

“With his cautious nature, he probably won’t attack me first!”

After doing all this, Zhao Beichen finally breathed a slight sigh of relief.

Looking at the two of them, he said in a deep voice, “Let’s leave here first!”

Li Hua shook off Zhao Beichen’s arm and angrily whispered, “Are we just going to let this go?”

“Are the people of the Purple Sun Hall all cowards? Someone kills our people, and we don’t even dare to fart!”

Zhao Beichen ripped off the human skin mask from Li Hua’s face and said coldly, “If you want to die, I won’t stop you.”

“If it weren’t for your Tianxiao Sect background, I wouldn’t bother with you.”

After saying this, Zhao Beichen took back his spirit soul weapon sword and flew into the depths.

Yes, he also wanted to have a direct fight with Li Guanqi!

He wanted the world to know that even if Li Guanqi participated in the Inferno Challenge as promised, he would not be a match for Zhao Beichen!

With his proud nature, how could he fear facing the opponent?

With a cold expression, Zhao Beichen began to search for traces of the opponent.

Meanwhile, in a snowy area deep in the mountains, Li Guanqi was expressionlessly digging a pit.

Xu Ming and Lu Fengyu, whose tendons had been severed, had also had their tongues cut out.

At this moment, their pubic regions were shattered, their faces pale as paper, and they were vomiting blood in large mouthfuls.

They could only make whimpering sounds, looking at the young man in front of them with extreme fear.

Li Guanqi quickly dug a pit about one person deep.

Howl!!

The occasional beast roars in their ears made the two tremble all over. They had already guessed what the other party intended to do.

Li Guanqi slowly walked towards them, grabbing each one and throwing them into the pit.

The pit was narrow, and they couldn’t bend their knees, so they could only stand side by side in the deep pit.

Bang!

With a burst of energy, the surrounding soil was shaken loose.

Then Li Guanqi took off the sword box on his back and began to continuously strike the soft soil.

After finishing this, Li Guanqi slowly squatted down, grabbed Xu Ming’s head, and slowly cut across his eyes with a long sword!

“Ugh!!! Ah!!!”

Desperately twisting their bodies, it was all in vain!

Lu Fengyu watched helplessly as the opponent approached with the sword, feeling the cold blade cutting across his eyes…

The intense pain was unbearable, but they couldn’t pass out.

Although their pubic regions were shattered, their Foundation Establishment cultivator physiques remained.

At this moment, they had never imagined they would long for death so much.

The darkness before their eyes plunged them into extreme fear.

Li Guanqi expressionlessly looked at the two in front of him and began rummaging through his storage ring.

Soon, he took out a ceramic jar the size of a bucket.

He reached inside and began smearing some sticky substance on their faces.

Xu Ming felt a sticky substance being smeared on his face and entering his mouth, but it had no taste.

Li Guanqi’s voice sounded like a demon in their ears.

“I shattered your pubic regions, crushed your jade slips, cut out your tongues, and severed your tendons.”

At this point, he suddenly stopped his actions.

“Why did you treat her that way?”

“When I killed Pang Li in the Purple Sun Hall, weren’t you there?”

As he spoke, Li Guanqi continued smearing the substance in his hand.

While smearing, he spoke softly, “You see, this is a cave.”

“I erased all traces, and under the cover of snow, Zhao Beichen has little chance of finding you.”

“Even if the elders of the Purple Sun Hall come, it would take them three to five hours to find you.”

“Oh, by the way.”

“I severed your tendons; in less than an hour, you’ll bleed out and pass out.”

“Since you’re blind, you’ll have to keep track of time yourself.”

As he spoke, Li Guanqi licked his fingers and said softly.

“The stuff on your faces is honey. Bear-type demon beasts love this stuff.”

“Do you know? A bear’s tongue is covered with barbs.”

“One lick, and it will tear off a large piece of your bloody face.”

The two frantically twisted their bodies, making whimpering sounds, constantly bowing to Li Guanqi.

However, Li Guanqi stood up, took out the recording stone, and stepped on one of their faces, shouting angrily, “When Sui An knelt and kowtowed to you, did you spare her!!”

“When you broke her limbs and kicked her around, did she not beg for mercy!!”

Bang!

Li Guanqi kicked Xu Ming’s face, his eyes cold as he said softly, “So, this is what you deserve!”

After saying this, he turned and disappeared into the wind and snow, leaving the two whimpering, not knowing if it was regret or fear.

Meanwhile, the residences of the hundred sects on Tianyu Mountain were in an uproar!

Even Long Qu personally came out to investigate.

Soon, explosive news spread throughout the Northern Region!

“Purple Sun Hall disciples tortured a seven-year-old girl from the Great Xia Sword Sect, leaving her critically injured.”

“Li Guanqi, who was supposed to participate in the Inferno Challenge the day after tomorrow to compete for the top spot, broke into the Purple Sun Hall residence at night and brutally killed two disciples.”

“The remaining disciples and Li Guanqi have all disappeared!”

In addition, an unconfirmed rumor spread.

“Li Guanqi left a message of resignation from the sect.”

Countless cultivators woke up, and upon seeing this news, they were all shocked!

Some sighed, “Ah, he’s still too young…”

“He had a chance to lead the sect to victory, but he acted so impulsively!”

But some felt that Li Guanqi was a man of character, daring to act against a powerful sect.

To avoid implicating his sect, he even resigned from the sect before taking action, cutting off the only connection.

Li Nanting looked at the talisman in the room with a pained expression.
