There was no sound, not even unnecessary movement.
Silently,
Bai Chong seemed to melt like a wax figure under this sword.
Of course, it wasn’t that he truly melted, rather the sword strike was simply too fast.
So fast that the flesh didn’t have time to break down, but was directly evaporated by the formidable sword force.
In an instant,
Bai Chong completely vanished.
All that was left floating in the air was a layer of dark red dust, like frost on snow. This was the remains of Bai Chong’s evaporated flesh.
The dust gradually fell, forming a thin layer on the ground.
Apart from that, there was not the slightest trace of his existence.
The entire place fell silent.
Everyone was stunned by the scene unfolding before them.
Many, due to excessive shock, had fallen into a daze.
Once, people thought this young man in white had been boasting, but from the moment he stepped into the arena until now, not more than the time it takes to eat a meal, he had already killed four or five people.
And those who died by his hand were all scions of great houses, powerful inheritors.
Especially now that Bai Chong, the proud successor of the Ancient Sword Divine Clan, had died, and under the very swordsmanship that the Ancient Sword Divine Clan was renowned for.
Such a terrifying fact naturally filled countless people with dread.
Originally calm and convinced that Xue An would undoubtedly die, Pu Yanru, Ruan Jingshow, and other women widened their eyes in disbelief, staring blankly.
At that moment,
Qi Hongbo glanced at the dark red dust on the ground, his expression gradually becoming solemn, then slowly raised his head and said coldly,
"I admit, I have been underestimating you all along! I didn’t expect that you would actually be a Sword Dao expert, and even managed to kill Bai Chong with your sword!"
Qi Hongbo took a deep breath, his eyes glinting more brilliantly, and slowly continued, "If I said that before this I didn’t take you seriously, now, you are certainly worthy to be considered my equal in battle!"
Xue An’s lips curved up into a playful smile, "Oh? Merely an opponent?"
"Do you think that’s enough?"
With that, a scoffing and proud expression appeared on Qi Hongbo’s face.
"Your strength is indeed not bad, but it is absolutely impossible for you to defeat me! Because in the presence of my Heavenly Fire Divine Clan, you all are mere mortals!"
But just as the words left his mouth, and even before his lips closed, Xue An took a step forward, crossing through space, and appeared directly in front of him. Then, with the swiftness of a thunderclap too fast for the ear to react, he slapped him across the face.
Slap!
The sound of the slap reverberated through the entire place.
Following that crisp sound, Qi Hongbo was sent spinning like a top, flying away, turning over a dozen times in midair before he managed to land, barely standing upright.
And his face swelled at a visibly rapid rate; in an instant, his originally handsome cheek had swollen into a pig’s head.
The venue was as silent as death.
After a moment passed, everyone’s expressions changed dramatically, and their eyes were filled with combined shock and disbelief.
Because nobody expected that Xue An would suddenly make a move and send Qi Hongbo, the Young Master of the Heavenly Fire Divine Clan with a supremely esteemed identity, spinning away with a slap.
This is bad... really bad! Someone thought to themselves.
