Chapter 59: Burning Down the Hideout

As long as Xia Qingchen continued to challenge them, there’d come a point where he wouldn’t be able to defeat them.

“Alright!” Xia Qingchen smiled.

Seeing that Xia Qingchen fell into his scheme, Zhao Tianfei’s countenance looked better. He said, “To be fair, you can rest for a while after each challenge. This will allow you to replenish your inner force and stamina.”

However, Xia Qingchen waved his hand, as if he didn’t care for that. “I don’t think I need to rest to deal with you guys. I should be able to go through everything at once!”

His domineering tone earned him endless applause!

“He’s the first person who dares to speak so arrogantly in front of the Ten Devils!”

Xia Qingchen looked toward the person ranked ninth amongst the Ten Devils, saying, “Let’s decide on you.”

“In case you don’t know who you lost to, let me introduce myself. I’m…” The ninth Devil smiled and said.

However, Xia Qingchen interrupted him, “There’s no need for introductions. You’ll be losing anyway!”

Pa——

The ninth Devil closed his fan and wore a vicious expression. “The people who dared to speak to me like this have all been killed by me! Take my attack!” He came charging forth, shooting out steel needles from the fan in his hand.

Xia Qingchen performed a tap across space. “Nine Plum Blossoms Bloomed!”

The other party had his guard up, putting up a block with his fan. “Hmph, insignificant trick!”

However, after Xia Qingchen performed the first move, he smoothly continued to perform the second move.

“Windsnow Flow!”

Several streams of inner force vortexes swept out in unpredictable trajectories.

The ninth Devil was unable to fend off the attacks and was struck in the back. As a ‘pfft’ sound rang out, he was struck down to the ground, appearing to be in a sorry plight.

Xia Qingchen smiled. “I told you. You’ll be the one to lose anyway.”

With that, he took the third piece of leaf.

Then, without even raising his head. “Eighth Devil!”

The eighth Devil wasn’t that much stronger than the ninth, so the results were predictable.

“Seventh Devil!”

“Sixth Devil!”

“Fifth Devil!”

As Xia Qingchen defeated his opponents in succession, the cheers from the spectators roared out.

“When was there such an amazing person amongst us bandits?”

“That’s right. It’s unbelievable. Since he is so amazing, why didn’t he show it in the past?”

Xia Qingchen took in what everyone said and thought that it was about time for him to leave.

“Alright, that’s it. I’ll leave some Yunluo Sacred Leaves for you Ten Devils to have a taste!” He sounded as if he was taking pity on them.

The six Devils who had been defeated in his hands were enraged, but there was nothing they could say.

“Hmph! Thinking of leaving before getting through everyone?” Zhao Tianfei shot up from the chair. His gaze filled with vicious gleams.

How could he possibly tolerate Xia Qingchen after he took down the Ten Devils in succession?

“You?” Xia Qingchen threw a glance at him.

This was the person who had spoken arrogantly earlier, saying that everyone in the martial pavilions were good-for-nothings.

“Forget it. I’ll save some face for you guys, in case you lose too badly,” Xia Qingchen said calmly and then turned to leave.

Pa——

Zhao Tianfei grabbed out with one hand, lifting the chair behind him and sending it smashing toward Xia Qingchen.

Without any hesitation, Xia Qingchen turned and kicked out, shattering the chair.

Zhao Tianfei charged over rapidly amidst the shattered fragments.

He fully displayed his strength at the third fold-level of the medium constellation stage. His powerful palms struck out toward Xia Qingchen’s chest.

His inner forces were like sewing needles, gathered in his palms.

This was an extremely vicious martial skill. Once the opponent was hit, in lighter cases, their martial meridians would be hurt, and their cultivation would be crippled. In more serious cases, they’d be killed on the spot!

Xia Qingchen’s gaze turned cold. Without any hesitation, he retaliated with Nine Dragons In the Sky.

Nine inner force vortexes sealed off the four main directions around him—his left, right, up, and down. Zhao Tianfei was unable to dodge and could only attack head-on.

Boom boom boom——

Amidst nine consecutive streams of astonishing explosions, Zhao Tianfei’s right palm and left arm had turned into a bloody state.

“Ahh! My hands!” Not only did Zhao Tianfei not back off, but his vicious character as a bandit had even been stimulated. “I’m going to kill you!”

He drew out the crossbow at his waist. There were ten poison needles on it.

After the needles were shot out, they sealed up all of Xia Qingchen’s movement area.

The results would be easily predicted once Xia Qingchen was hit.

Xia Qingchen let out a cold snort, lashing his sleeve to send out all of the golden thread, then flicking his finger consecutively.

The golden thread moved around like a long snake, accurately lashing out at the poison needles, sending them flying back in a scattered manner.

Pffft pffft pffft——

Three of the needles struck Zhao Tianfei. The venom entered his body, causing him to cry out in agony. He pounced forth even more crazily. “Brothers! Kill him!”

Other than the ones who had been defeated by Xia Qingchen and were unable to move, all the other members of the six Devils attacked.

Xia Qingchen wasn’t surprised at all.

This was the true nature of bandits!

Expecting them to play fair?

Haha!

“Fire Phoenix Illuminates the Sky!” Xia Qingchen was undaunted and charged on fiercely like a wolf pouncing into a flock of sheep!

“Barbaric Elephant Gallops in the Wild!”

“Nine Dragons In the Sky!”

Xia Qingchen had held back in the sparrings earlier.

But now!

All his attacks were out to kill!

After three moves, no one was able to stand up anymore.

All seven Devils died horrible deaths!

Xia Qingchen flicked off the blood on his sleeves, wearing a calm gaze. “Can’t even stand up to a fight! The Ten Devils aren’t anything special!” After saying that, he took away all of the Yunluo Sacred Leaves and turned to leave.

The other bandits who were watching were first stunned and then immediately went up to check. It was only then did they realize that all of the Devils were killed without any exceptions!

Seven of the Ten Devils were killed. This was a serious matter that would affect their group from the root!

“Stop right there!” Someone stopped Xia Qingchen. “Which ship are you from?”

The bandits were assigned to different ships in the order of their assigned number.

They had started to have serious doubts over Xia Qingchen’s identity.

Xia Qingchen turned and smiled. “Me? I came on a canoe.”

A canoe?

“Capture him!” Everyone finally realized that Xia Qingchen might not be one of them.

This astonished and infuriated them!

To think that an outsider would dare to disguise as one of them, openly running over to their hideout!

Putting aside the fact that he was so bold as to fight for the Yunluo Sacred Leaves, he even dared to kill the seven Devils under everyone’s eyes!

This was challenging them openly, making light of them bandits!

There had only been cases of them bandits humiliating others. When had anyone come to their doors to attack them?

“A bunch of unruly mobs!” Xia Qingchen smirked and performed the [Cloudlight Nature Sound].

He moved quickly at a speed of 40 feet per step taken, elusively throwing off everyone and leaving the mountain.

Wuuu——

It hadn’t been long after he got off the mountain when a resounding horn signal rang out from the mountains.

The bandits’ ships that were docked around the island had received the signal. They prepared to surround Xia Qingchen and attack him.

Xia Qingchen raised his head and looked up at the sky, mumbling, “It should be about time!”

Since he came all the way to visit the bandits’ hideout, there was no way that he’d just leave after taking a few leaves and killing a few small bandits.

Rumble——

Deafening rumbles rang out, like erupting thunders.

The ten huge bandits’ ships that were docked on the pier exploded into pieces at the same time.

Fire soared into the sky, with thick smoke seething. All the bandits cried out in agony.

Xia Qingchen had found several hundred jins of explosives on the ship he had taken captive of earlier.

Before he got onto the island, he had put several tens or even up to 100 jins of explosives on every ship and prepared a small setup where they would go off after a certain period.

Xia Qingchen boarded his small boat calmly.

At this moment, huge fireballs splattered onto the island from the inflamed huge ships, igniting the dense forest!

In an instant, the island was surrounded by intense flames that kept on extending out toward the mountain.
