Chapter 379: He Who Kills Must Be Killed (Fourth Update)
```
Chapter Three Hundred and Seventy-Nine
The Elder of the Black Scale Sect was scorched black all over, and Long Xiaoshan landed beside him, stomping down fiercely.
He crushed through the elder's chest with his foot.
At this moment, Tie Qiong and the others had just turned around. They had finally adapted to the darkness and saw the scene of Long Xiaoshan crushing the Elder of the Black Scale Sect, causing everyone's eyes to twitch violently.
A chill arose.
Long Xiaoshan's youth and ferocity far exceeded their expectations.
This was no ordinary twenty-year-old youth.
He was more like a seasoned veteran who had spent decades in the Ancient Martial World.
In the darkness, a pair of eyes sparkled with brilliance.
Hidden within the formation, the Blue-eyed Witch from Miao Frontier watched how Long Xiaoshan fought with those who pursued her.
This man was incredibly strong!
She knew very well how formidable her pursuers were. Truth be told, if she hadn't bought a Magical Bracelet at the auction, which blocked several heavy blows for her, she would have been captured by these people long ago.
Despite that, she was driven to a point where there was no retreat in heaven and no entrance on earth.
If it weren't for Long Xiaoshan's intervention, she most certainly would be in their grasp being brutally beaten by now.
When Long Xiaoshan went out earlier, she was secretly anxious and resentful.
Because with the Heartfeel Gu inside him, if Long Xiaoshan died, she too would be done for.
But the outcome was too unexpected.
In a short skirmish with these powerful foes, Long Xiaoshan killed four of them in a mere moment. From start to finish, he controlled the situation. His formidable strength and decisive nature made her heart tremble and her spirit moved.
Her azure blue eyes shone brightly, and a flush of red swept over her cheeks.
Initially, the reason she had subjected Long Xiaoshan to her Love Gu was more for self-preservation.
But now, she was attracted to this man's power. His fierce and resolute demeanor captivated her, for in the eyes of the Blue-eyed Witch from Miao Frontier, those weak and beautiful men never caught her attention – only powerful men could captivate their hearts.
Ao~~ Elder Ku, Elder Bai.
A wail of grief pierced the air.
It was because Tie Qiong and the others had seen two corpses on the ground, one with a smashed skull and the other with a collapsed chest – a terribly gruesome death.
Tie Qiong's eyes looked as if they might bleed from fury.
The elite squad he had brought this time were the crème de la crème of the Iron Palm Sect Leader.
There were just over a dozen Profound Grade Elders in the Iron Palm Gang.
These were individuals foundational to the sect.
Much more precious than Yu Cheng.
But within this place, in less than three minutes of combat, three had been killed. If Yu Cheng, the Quasi-Profound Grade, was included, Long Xiaoshan had already taken out four powerhouses of the Iron Palm Gang, nearly crippling a quarter of their top fighters. The Iron Palm Gang hadn't suffered such a loss in ten years.
How could he accept this?
A journey of vengeance had unexpectedly turned into a suicide mission.
Tie Qiong's body trembled, and he said word by word, echoing like a cuckoo crying blood, "You're so fond of killing, striking with lethal force. Have you ever thought that you might end up with the same fate?"
Long Xiaoshan gave a look of disdain and said lightly, "Tie Qiong, stop pretending. If I don't kill them, would you spare me? 'He who kills shall be killed by others.' You came to kill me but complain when I don't hold back, which is simply ridiculous."
Tie Qiong seemed to be struck by Long Xiaoshan's words, his face turning a pale shade of ashen. "That's right, 'He who kills shall be killed by others.' So, are you ready to die now?" After finishing his words, his eyes revealed a deep killing intent, and his anger erupted like a volcano.
He bellowed furiously, and his upper body clothing was directly blown apart by his powerful Inner Qi, flying off and revealing his muscular upper body that seemed to explode with power. His two arms swelled like mountains, exuding a dark iron luster. That darkness had spread across his upper body, although it was lighter than on the rest.
At the same time, the remaining three of the Iron Palm Gang all erupted with power as well.
```
Although their momentum wasn't as violent as Tie Qiong's.
They were still not to be underestimated, all of them Xuan-level Practitioners.
Each person tore their upper garments, revealing incredibly thick iron arms. Xiaoshan noticed that the arms of the members of the Iron Palm Gang were trained to a non-human extent, and the deeper the sheen, the closer to the color of metal, the stronger their power seemed to signify.
Tie Qiong said indifferently, "Xiaoshan, you were able to kill my junior brother earlier only because of your scheming and plotting, now... die."
Tie Qiong stomped on the ground, his body shooting out violently.
A powerful vacuum membrane of Inner Qi had already formed around his body, and as he charged over, he dragged behind him a trail of airflow.
Such an imposing aura!
Was this the strength of a Xuan-level Late Stage practitioner?
Xiaoshan felt as if he wasn't facing a human, but a meteorite crashing down from the sky.
In the blink of an eye.
Tie Qiong charged in front of Xiaoshan, his iron palm opened, emanating a cold metallic luster, and violently slapped down, creating a thunderous boom as the air exploded.
Xiaoshan crossed his arms.
Boom.
He was sent flying by Tie Qiong's enormous power, his feet scraping against the ground, breaking the newly laid tiles.
Xiaoshan's arms were in extreme pain.
His body almost felt disassembled, and even though he had cultivated the Vajra Indestructible Technique, he wasn't truly invulnerable. Once the force exceeded the limits of his body, he would still get hurt. At the Fifth Level of Qi Induction, his strength was no match for a Xuan-level Late Stage martial artist.
Panting.
Several figures rushed over.
The other three members of the Iron Palm Gang also pounced.

Xiaoshan's arms were numb, but he was not merely a martial artist. Muttering a spell, a dark green barrier suddenly appeared in front of him, and with a bang!
Several people attacked the dark green barrier, breaking it apart.
Xiaoshan had already dodged, shaking his hands.
Under the flow of True Qi, the numbness began to recover rapidly.
Tie Qiong charged again. Xiaoshan hurriedly threw out several talismans which transformed into fireballs in the air and smashed towards the adversary. Tie Qiong, showing disdain, didn't dodge or evade, directly throwing several punches that blew up the fireballs.
The flames from the exploding fireballs that fell on Tie Qiong were blocked by the Inner Qi on his body.
What a tough guy.
Xiaoshan had underestimated the Xuan-level Late Stage martial artist, whose flesh was hard and completely immune to ordinary spells.
Unless it was a more potent spell, like the Law of Thunder he had used before.
But the more powerful the spell, the more time it required. Even though his current Fifth Level of Qi Induction needed very little time to cast, in a fight with a master like Tie Qiong, the blink of an eye could determine life or death.
Therefore, he had no time to cast spells.
Just as Xiaoshan was cornered with no way out and could only take out the Flame Precious Saber to fight.
A buzzing sound came through the air.
Many black dots flew from all directions, rushing towards Tie Qiong and the others. These vicious little bugs were Gu Insects from the Miao Frontier, and even though they were ancient martial artists, if the Gu Insects entered their bodies, it was no joking matter—none of them had managed to temper their internal organs.
A figure landed beside Xiaoshan. The Blue-eyed Witch grabbed Xiaoshan's arm and said, "We must run now."
"This damn woman is definitely here."
When Tie Qiong and the others saw the Blue-eyed Witch, they immediately waved their iron palms to swat away the Gu Insects and charged fiercely.
