Chapter 278 - Ruptured!
That figure appeared in her mind and that voice reverberated in the depths of her memories, giving Su Xiaoning a sense of warmth.
Right after, Su Xiaoning caught sight of someone.
A man in green walked over slowly.
His figure was not tall, bulky nor stalwart.
However, it overlapped gradually with the figure in Su Xiaoning’s memories.
When she caught sight of that person, Su Xiaoning’s lips opened slightly. Her body trembled and her eyes were filled with disbelief.
How was that possible?
How was that possible?
What did the green-robed man mean by that?
He was declaring that he dared to kill under the nose of the emperor in the Great Zhou Dynasty?
This person was either a lunatic or someone that was spouting nonsense!
“Fufu… trying to scare me?”
After a brief silence, He Xing suddenly laughed.
He could tell that Su Zimo was the same as him and was only at late-stage Foundation Establishment.
Notwithstanding whether or not Su Zimo dared to attack, even if he truly did not care about his life and tried to attack, He Xing knew he could definitely back off right away!
By then, the Scarlet Vulture guards would step in and suppress that person!
At that thought, He Xing extended his palm and slapped towards Su Zimo’s cheek with a cold scoff.
At the same time, Su Zimo made his move.
It was the exact same motion and stance.
However, Su Zimo’s speed was much faster than He Xing’s!
He Xing merely extended a palm, but for Su Zimo, the end of his palm seemed as if it was a millstone moving with a sharp killing intent that arrived instantly!
He Xing’s face was met with a gust of evil wind!
He could not dodge it at all.
The aura of death enveloped him, almost suffocating him!
He Xing had miscalculated something.
At this distance, he would not be able to escape at all if Su Zimo made a move!
Bang!
Su Zimo’s palm landed heavily on He Xing’s cheek with a dull thud.
Poof!
Under countless gazes, He Xing’s gigantic head was ruptured by Su Zimo’s palm!
His brain juice splattered everywhere as blood flowed out.
He Xing’s headless corpse was still standing on the spot, convulsing uncontrollably.
The crowd instantly went silent.
Everyone watched the unbelievable scene with disbelief in their eyes.
While Su Zimo had already laid down his warning, nobody expected him to really make a move.
Furthermore, he was so decisive and merciless!
The feeling was as though the green-robed cultivator was looking for a random excuse just to kill He Xing!
As one of the most promising Elixir Refinement Masters amongst the younger generation of True Fire Sect, He Xing was still in high spirits and looked down on everything moments earlier. In the blink of an eye, he was turned into a headless corpse against a single slap from this unknown green-robed cultivator.
Everything had happened too quickly!
Everyone looked at Su Zimo as though they were looking at a dead man.
If this was a fight and the Scarlet Vulture guards stepped in, the most that would happen was that the party in the wrong would be kicked out of the capital.
But if someone died, the murderer would have to pay with his life!
That was also the reason why even He Xing had to acknowledge that he could not kill within the capital despite having the Scarlet Vulture guards as backing.
“Murder!”
A shriek broke out from the crowd.
Not far away, two Scarlet Vulture guards witnessed everything that happened and their eyes flashed with disbelief. Taken aback for a brief moment, they shouted before rushing over furiously on their Scarlet Vultures while wielding their dagger-axes!
Everyone from True Fire Elixir Workshop looked murderous as fire spewed from their eyes.
Pang Ming said coldly, “It’s over for you, lad! No one can save you today!”
The spirit lion beside him lowered its body and roared at Su Zimo angrily as well.
Su Zimo’s gaze was cold as he said indifferently, “Worry about yourself first.”
