Chapter 193: Chapter 193 The Tragedy of the Song Family

Song Qingshan never expected Xuan Qing to be so unscrupulous, actually wanting to exterminate the entire Song Family.

The faces of the Song Family members all changed dramatically, each filled with a look of terror.

They had already seen Xuan Qing’s strength; even Song Qingshan was no match, and Xuan Qing truly possessed the power to annihilate the Song Family.

"You dare!"

Suppressing the rage in his heart, Song Qingshan clenched his teeth and said, "Do you really think my Song Family is so easily wiped out?"

"Although I’m not as strong as you, if I have to fight to the death, even if you are an Energizing Skill Late Stage Realm Strong, you will pay a heavy price!"

As he spoke, without the slightest hesitation, he took out a White Porcelain Bottle and immediately swallowed an elixir from inside.

This was left to him by Qin Chuan; as for what kind of elixir it was and what effects it had, he had no idea.

Qin Chuan had only told him not to consume it unless his Martial Path Realm reached the Energizing Skill Peak.

That’s because the elixir contained an immense amount of energy, which a Martial Artist below the Energizing Skill Peak Realm would find difficult to withstand. Consuming it could, at best, completely ruin one’s Martial Path, or at worst, result in death.

In other words, taking this elixir at his current level of the Energizing Skill Middle Stage, the best outcome would be the complete ruin of his Martial Path.

However, at this moment, he had no other choice; Xuan Qing clearly intended to exterminate the entire Song Family. If he could not stop him, all the members of the Song Family would die.

"Boom!"

Just ten seconds after Song Qingshan took the elixir, an astonishing momentum erupted from within him.

"Roar~"

Song Qingshan let out a long howl to the sky, his face twisting in agony.

He felt as if his body was about to burst, the energy contained in the elixir was too overbearing, furiously assaulting his viscera and meridians throughout his body.

Visible to the naked eye, streaks of blood appeared on his skin, resembling the cracked earth after a drought.

"Grandfather!"

"Family Head!"

Seeing this, the faces of the Song Family members were filled with horror.

Song Yan’s tears were streaming; she did not know what kind of elixir her grandfather had taken, but it was clear that he had paid an extremely heavy price after consuming it.

"Ah~"

Song Qingshan could no longer suppress the pain of feeling as if his body was being torn apart and let out a mournful cry.

"How is this possible?"

Xuan Qing was already beyond shocked, saying incredulously, "What kind of elixir did he consume? How could he unleash such astonishing strength in such a short period of time?"

Once one reached the Energizing level on the Martial Path, it was nearly impossible to enhance combat power through elixirs, let alone breakthrough two minor realms.

Song Qingshan, who originally only had the strength of Energizing Skill Middle Stage Realm, now emitted a momentum that had reached the Energizing Skill Peak Realm.

Yet it wasn’t over; the momentum from his body continued to grow stronger, faintly moving towards the surge of the King Realm.

No one knew the terrible pain that Song Qingshan was enduring at that moment; he clearly felt his physical body being torn apart bit by bit by the violent force erupted from the elixir.

And it was so, his body was covered with shocking wounds, as if he had been lacerated by a thousand cuts.

"I must suppress this energy, or else I won’t even make it to the battle before I burst and die!"

Song Qingshan thought to himself.

He finally understood why Qin Chuan had said not to take the elixir unless he was at the Energizing Skill Peak.

This elixir was meant for those at the Energizing Skill Peak trying to break through to the King Realm; even an Energizing Skill Peak Realm Strong would suffer immense pain upon consumption, not to mention someone at his stage of the Energizing Skill Middle Stage.

He desperately tried to suppress the still-exploding energy within his body, but he could not contain it, and his momentum was still climbing, reaching the very limit of Energizing.

"Not good! If we wait any longer, he will indeed step into the King Realm."

Xuan Qing muttered to himself, his face filled with dread.

His own Martial Path Realm had reached the pinnacle of the Energizing Skill Late Stage Realm, and he could break through to the Energizing Skill Peak Realm at any time, but he still felt a very strong pressure from Song Qingshan.

"Die!"

Xuan Qing moved, instantly attacking Song Qingshan.

"Grandfather, be careful!"

Song Yan shouted at the top of her lungs.

Song Qingshan, still struggling to suppress the surging energy within him, hadn’t noticed Xuan Qing. Hearing Song Yan’s voice, he suddenly came back to his senses.

He turned around and threw a punch, clashing with the palm Xuan Qing had swung, which had arrived just in time.

"Bang!"

The attack of the two powerhouses exploded upon impact, creating a thunderous roar.

"What?"

Xuan Qing’s complexion changed drastically, the force emanating from his palm, like marrow-boring maggots, burst forth and spread along his entire arm.

"Crack!"

He could no longer bear this power, and a sound of bones breaking came from his arm.

"Ah!"

Xuan Qing let out a miserable scream, his body like a kite with a snapped string, directly flung backwards.

Meanwhile, Song Qingshan felt somewhat relieved. His face filled with mad ecstasy, he laughed and said, "Today, I’ll use your blood to experience the power of the Energizing Skill Peak Realm."

He knew that after this battle, he would be left crippled or wounded. So he might as well fight with all his might, considering it the experience of his strongest moment in life.

"You’re seeking death!"

Seeing Song Qingshan charging towards him, Xuan Qing gritted his teeth and immediately drew a short dagger from his waist.

As one of the four envoys of the Black Dragon Commerce Association, when had Xuan Wu ever suffered such humiliation? To be crippled by a martial artist from a small city was unbearable.

"Bang bang bang!"

The next second, the two clashed fiercely, Xuan Qing with one arm hanging uselessly, the other wielding the blade in a fierce battle.

Song Qingshan, whose body was already covered in bloodstains, had more than a dozen deep, bone-exposing wounds inflicted by Xuan Qing’s short dagger.

But Song Qingshan seemed to feel no pain, letting Xuan Qing’s dagger slash across his body, focused only on launching a frenzied attack.

He was very clear that once he fell, all members of the Song Family would be annihilated. Therefore, even if it cost him his life, he had to kill Xuan Qing.

"Grandfather!"

"Family Head!"

The Song Family members, one by one, had faces full of sorrow, only able to watch helplessly as Song Qingshan fought desperately, unable to assist in the slightest.

Song Jie clenched his fists tightly, his eyes bloodshot, staring intently at Xuan Qing.

He hated being too weak to assist his most respected grandfather.

Song Yan felt the same way, tears streaming from her eyes as she kept her red eyes fixed on the battlefield, yet in her heart, she had silently made a resolve.

She was the one with the strongest martial talent in the Song Family. It was just that, with Song Qingshan taking the lead, she had never thought of the possibility of such a gruesome scene, having lived a life of affluence from childhood.

"Boom!"

Just then, a terrifying aura burst forth from Xuan Qing’s body.

Xuan Qing, hair disheveled and body covered in blood, looked ferociously at Song Qingshan and said, "Old thing, I really should thank you. If it weren’t for you helping me break through my shackles, I might not have made it to the Energizing Skill Peak even after three more years of cultivation."

With these words, the people of the Song Family despaired.

Xuan Qing’s combat experience far surpassed that of Song Qingshan’s. Now that he had broken through to the Energizing Skill Peak, how could Song Qingshan, who was barely suppressing him before, cope?

"I’m going all out with you!"

A Song Family Dark Energy Peak Realm strong, could no longer hold back, roared and charged at Xuan Qing.

"Get back! All of you get the hell back!"

Seeing this, Song Qingshan bellowed, trying to save the strong, but it was too late. The other man had already charged in front of Xuan Qing and threw a full-power strike.

"Boom!"

With a palm strike from Xuan Qing, accompanied by a loud noise, the strongman’s chest caved in, blood spurted out, and he was flung away.

Before he even hit the ground, his life had been extinguished.

"You dare to kill my brother, I’ll fight you with my life!"

Another Song Family strong roared and charged at Xuan Qing.

"Brothers, for the Song Family, let’s give this bastard a fight, kill!"

"For the Song Family, let’s fight him to the death!"

"Charge!"

...

Instantly, all the Song Family strong charged towards Xuan Qing.

"Hmph!"

Xuan Qing let out a contemptuous snort, "A bunch of ants overestimating themselves!"

"Back off! All of you, back the hell off!"

Song Qingshan’s eyes turned red as he furiously attacked Xuan Qing, unable to bear seeing his loyal strongmen rushing to their deaths one after the other.

However, the post-breakthrough Xuan Qing was terrifyingly powerful. Before Song Qingshan could get close, Xuan Qing made his move, like a reaper, harvesting the lives of the Song Family’s strongmen.

"Ah!"

Song Qingshan could only watch as the Song Family strong were continuously slaughtered. He suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, his eyes turned dark, and he fainted on the spot.
