Chapter 125: Who Do You Want to Cut Down?
Minister Professor Zhou had a stern face and glanced at Yu Mou. He naturally knew that Deputy Mansion Master Wang was invited by him.
"Wang Qiang, do you think just because you are Deputy Mansion Master, I will give you face?"
Minister Professor Zhou shot him a cold glance and said, "I don’t have time to drink tea with you. Go drink it back at your own place; I’m leaving!"
"Stop!"
The Deputy Mansion Master named Wang Qiang raised his hand to block him and said, "Minister Professor, give me some face. Don’t worry about today’s matter. I’ve checked, and that Yi Qianmo has no connection with you. Why are you protecting him?"
"Hmm!"
Minister Professor Zhou frowned and said coldly, "Who do you think you are? Why should I show you any respect?"
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Wang Qiang did not expect that Minister Professor Zhou would not regard him at all. His expression was icy, "Today, Minister Professor, you cannot go anywhere!"
"Do you want to fight?"
Minister Professor Zhou said with a cold face, "Do you really think I am just a Pill Master?"
"Minister Professor, you are joking. I know you are still the top Minister Professor at the academy, but…"
Wang Qiang immediately released his aura, "I am not an easy target either, so Minister Professor, please give me some respect and have some tea with me. After that, whatever you want to do, I won’t stop you!"
"Hmm! Fake Golden Core Realm!"
Feeling his aura, Minister Professor Zhou’s face changed. The so-called Fake Golden Core refers to the stage reached after failing to condense a Golden Core, which lies between the Golden Core Stage and the Foundation Establishment Stage.
However, the strength must overpower the Foundation Establishment Stage, but it is not as strong as the Golden Core Stage.
"There was no way, Wang did not have enough talent and failed to reach the Golden Core Stage, but still, he touched the power of the Golden Core Stage."
Wang Qiang said, "Minister Professor, please give me some face; I will surely repay you generously in the future!"
"I do not need your generous repayment. I will make it clear today: if that kid has any problems, even if I cannot kill you, I will use all my resources to drive you out of Tianyuan Academy. Your little beast will not survive!"
Minister Professor Zhou said with a cold face, threatening him.
Wang Qiang’s face changed greatly because Minister Professor Zhou’s threat was not just empty words; he truly had the ability to do this.
Tianyuan Academy could lose a Deputy Mansion Master at the Fake Golden Core Realm, but it absolutely did not want to lose a third-grade Pill Master, especially since this third-grade Pill Master had just refined the third-grade Strong Spirit Pill, a pill of his own creation with limitless potential.
But Wang Qiang also knew that if he backed down now, he would probably lose face in the mansion as well.
"Do we really have to do this?" Wang Qiang said with a cold face.
"Get lost!"
Minister Professor Zhou replied coldly.
But Wang Qiang did not leave; instead of holding back, he released his energy fully, "Minister Professor, you should first return to Pill Pavilion and calm down!"
Minister Professor Zhou could not believe that for a Wang Jun, Wang Qiang was really willing to ruin his own future?
Yu Mou could not believe it, but soon he figured it out: no matter what the relationship was between Yi Qianmo and Minister Professor Zhou, if Yi Qianmo died, everything that followed would have room for change.
Minister Professor Zhou couldn’t really confront Wang Qiang over a dead person, could he? In the end, if Wang Qiang softened up a bit and offered some compensation, it would likely be forgotten.
Yu Mou could understand this, and Minister Professor Zhou could naturally understand it too. He wanted to fight Wang Qiang, but when he thought about the other being at the Fake Golden Core Realm, he dismissed the idea. "If he dies, the words just spoken will still hold, and it won’t matter who comes!"
Minister Professor Zhou turned around and returned to Pill Pavilion.
Wang Qiang’s heart tightened, but he soon felt relieved and said, "You keep an eye on what happens at Tao School. If there are any results, come back and tell me right away. I will go and comfort Minister Professor Zhou."
Wu Qing immediately rushed to Tao School, while Yu Mou stood outside Pill Pavilion, too afraid to go in.
At the same time, in the Tao School’s eighth floor dojo, Yi Qianmo was hesitating.
Wang Jun breaking through to the Foundation Establishment Stage was unexpected for him, and now he had two ways to deal with it. One was to use the Power of Gluttony from Repel Evil.
After defeating the Monkey King, Repel Evil drained the Monkey King’s essence and soul, allowing him to use the Power of Gluttony to directly enter the Foundation Establishment Stage.
The second option was to use the Sword Pill to unleash the full form of the sword body.
However, he couldn’t use either the Sword Pill or Repel Evil lightly, especially the Sword Pill—using it once on Green Dragon Mountain was already very risky.
With so many eyes watching in Tianyuan Academy, if he revealed his current power, it would be earth-shattering and not easy to hide like before.
The Power of Gluttony from Repel Evil was too sinister; if he used it, he would surely be labeled as a dark sorcerer, and Tianyuan Academy would not accept him, causing great trouble for Su Muyu.
But if he didn’t use one of them, with Wang Jun’s strength at the Foundation Establishment Stage, fighting him would be like courting death.
"Why hasn’t Minister Professor Zhou arrived yet?"
Yi Qianmo felt a little troubled.
Just then, Wang Jun swung his sword and charged at Yi Qianmo. Wang Jun, who had entered the Foundation Establishment Stage, was very different from the Qi Refining Stage. Even Yi Qianmo could feel the pressure.
"Clang!"
As the sword struck down, Yi Qianmo held his sword with both hands and tried to block with all his strength, but he was still knocked back, feeling his energy surge wildly.
"Where did that arrogance go? Don’t worry, I won’t kill you so quickly. I will slowly torment you until you feel hopeless!"
Wang Jun swung his sword down again.
After dozens of strikes, Yi Qianmo’s body was shaking uncontrollably, and as soon as his spiritual power touched the sword, it was immediately shattered.
"Foundation Establishment Stage, this is a bit unfair!"
"Yes, it’s just knocking at the door."
"Speak quietly, do you want to live or not!"
The crowd watching did not hate Yi Qianmo at this moment; instead, they felt a bit sorry for him, after all, he had worked hard to get here, but Wang Jun had clearly broken the rules.
"Show that boldness you had earlier!" Wang Jun sneered, "Otherwise, you won’t have a chance!"
"You are right!"
Yi Qianmo made a decision, "You have no chance now!"
Choosing the less harmful option, Yi Qianmo activated the Power of Gluttony from Repel Evil, and he immediately felt a huge surge of energy flowing into his body.
"Before I kill you, I will cut out your tongue!"
Wang Jun brought down his knife.
"Clang!"
With a loud bang, the sound of metal clashing was deafening, as Yi Qianmo swung his sword to meet it, unleashing the terrifying power of the blood curse.
"Boom!"
With a loud crash, Wang Jun landed on the cave’s entrance, smashing the door to pieces.
"How is this possible!!!"
The onlookers gasped in shock.
"What… what is this… what… what is that on him…"
Soon, they noticed something was wrong; Yi Qianmo’s sword was surrounded by the aura of the blood curse, golden hair started to sprout from his body, and he gradually grew taller, reaching nearly ten feet in height.
"Monster!!!"
The disciples of the Tao School had clearly never seen such a terrifying scene; their faces changed dramatically, and they all hurried back.
In the distance, Xu Shiping saw Wang Jun being knocked away. He paused for a moment, then noticed the bloody curse aura on Yi Qianmo’s sword and felt a chill run down his spine. "This isn’t right; this is demonization. That sword is very… evil!"
"You little beast, I will slay you!"
Just then, Wang Jun climbed up from the debris and swung his blade towards Yi Qianmo.
"Who are you going to slay?"
Yi Qianmo held his sword and stared coldly at him.
