Chapter 893 Teaching You a Lesson
"Haha, kid, you're really naive. Do you really think good people exist in the Denor Star System? The first rule anyone learns in Denor is not to trust anyone easily. You don't even understand this principle and dare to step into Denor? That's sheer folly," Autef laughed heartily.
His gaze towards Xu Nian was filled with endless mockery.
He had seen many foolish people, but someone as foolish as this guy before him was a first.
In his view, someone this foolish didn't deserve to live in this world.
Xu Nian, seeing Autef's ridicule, showed intense anger on his face.
Of course, his anger was feigned.
From the beginning, he had seen through Autef's treacherous plan, merely playing along in this act.
This wasn't the first time he had done something like this.
So, there was no way Autef could see through his scheme.
It was just that he didn't expect Autef to reveal the plan so quickly.
Apparently, he thought Xu Nian was no threat, which was why he didn't bother concealing the plan any longer.
"Kid, you don't need to look at me with such anger. Haven't you always been curious about the Denor Star System? What I'm teaching you now is the basic rule of survival in Denor. But you have to learn this lesson with your life. Enough talk, hand over your storage ring, and I'll give you a quick death," Autef laughed heartily.
His gaze at Xu Nian was like a spider looking at an insect already ensnared in its web.
"Thank you for teaching me this lesson, but let me also teach you a lesson," Xu Nian suddenly said with a cold smile.
His smile was a stark contrast to the previously silly grin.
If Xu Nian's earlier smile was that of a docile lamb, now his smile was like a fierce wolf walking in the night.
Autef was someone who had survived the harshness of the Denor Star System.
He had an instinct for danger, and at that moment, Xu Nian's smile gave off an aura of immense danger.
"Hmph, kid, stop acting mysterious. Your little tricks are useless in front of me. Your strength is right there, killing you is easy for me," Autef snorted coldly.
"Is that so? The strength of the Heavenly Gang Realm Peak is indeed impressive, but do you not know that some people's strength is not as simple as it looks? That's the lesson I'm teaching you today," Xu Nian said with a cold smile.
As he finished speaking, his eyes turned sharp suddenly.
Then Xu Nian's figure disappeared from the spot.
Autef's pupils suddenly contracted.
Because he found that Xu Nian was already right in front of him.
Fiercely swinging his fist towards him.
The power on the fist was quite formidable.
"So fast!"
Autef was greatly shocked and hurriedly mobilized the energy within his body.
Without hesitation, he punched back against Xu Nian's fist.
"Boom!"
A loud explosion.
Autef retreated three full steps.
As for Xu Nian, he was also forced back by the terrifying power.
"Body Cultivation? Peak of Wanxiang Realm? How is this possible?" Autef looked at Xu Nian with a face full of astonishment.
He didn't expect that the guy before him was a Body Cultivation practitioner.
The most important thing was that merely at the Wanxiang Realm, he could force him back three steps with a single punch.
He was a whole level higher!
"Kid, I really didn't expect you to be a Body Cultivation practitioner as well. It seems the Body Cultivation Technique you're cultivating is quite extraordinary, otherwise, it's impossible to confront me with a big realm difference and still take one of my punches," Autef's eyes suddenly became bright.
His gaze towards Xu Nian became extremely scorching.
For them, a powerful Cultivation Technique was the most direct treasure.
After all, nothing compares to one's own strength.
So when he guessed that Xu Nian had a powerful Body Cultivation Technique, intense greed surged in his heart.
"Indeed, the Body Cultivation Technique I am practicing is very powerful. My internal energy reserve is twenty times that of ordinary Body Cultivation practitioners at the same level," Xu Nian answered truthfully.
"Twenty times? Haha, seems today is really my lucky day. Kid, do you think comparing your Spiritual Energy Reserve to mine makes you my enemy? You are wrong. I have truly survived in Denor scraping and crawling my way here; my true strength isn't in my fist, but in my Zhanluo Blade, all honed in blood, do you understand?" Autef laughed heartily, his eyes hotter than ever.
Then he drew out the giant blade from behind him, a wild aura emanating from his body.
Within this wild aura was a terrifying murderous vibe.
"Is that so? Then let me experience it," Xu Nian smiled slightly, and a Kunlun Sword appeared in his hand.
"Immortal Sword?" Autef showed a hint of surprise on his face when he saw the sword in Xu Nian's hand.
"Seems that you do have a lot of valuable things, but soon they'll all be mine," Autef sneered.
"So much nonsense," Xu Nian mocked scornfully.
Autef's eyes were suddenly filled with rage.
"Since you're in such a hurry to die, let me fulfill your wish," Autef snapped coldly.
With that, he swung the huge blade directly towards Xu Nian.
The swordsmanship wasn't fancy, could even be described as crude.
However, the dominance and fierceness in the swordsmanship was like a roaring dragon, causing one's heart to tremble.
Xu Nian couldn't help but show admiration.
The power of this strike was strong, but in terms of dominance.
It still fell far short when compared to the Asura Three Sabers.
"One Slash Silence!"
Xu Nian didn't bother with more words and directly used One Slash Silence.
Only to see the Immortal Sword in Xu Nian's hand cut through the sky like the only flash in the darkness.
Then Autef's body stiffened in place.
His face filled with endless astonishment.
"This... how is this possible?" Autef's eyes widened, his voice stuck in his throat, unable to come out despite the effort.
Xu Nian stepped forward, looking at the frozen Autef, smiling, "It seems, after mixing in the Denor Star System, you still don't understand the principle of not judging others by their appearance. Today, I teach you for free."
After saying this, Xu Nian extended a finger to touch Autef.
Autef's body then toppled forward, splitting into two halves.
At the moment of death, Autef finally understood.
He had been played from the start.
But at this moment, it was all too late.
Such terrifying realization, such terrifying scheming.
A massive storm is likely to brew in the Denor Star System.
Xu Nian didn't even glance at Autef but instead picked up Autef's storage ring.
Soon after, Xu Nian turned his gaze to the giant blade.
He tried to lift it and found it indeed much heavier than his Kunlun Hammer.
"What a great blade, truly wasted in Autef's hand," Xu Nian murmured to himself.
The giant blade was clearly an ancient sword, though only at Top-Grade Spiritual Artifact Level.
Yet Xu Nian could feel the violent power contained within it.
