The Immortal Emperor Returns

Chapter 288 A Murderous Look!

Fierce beasts and battle pets could be seen everywhere on the streets of Gujiang City. The people on the streets were panic-stricken when seeing them and tried to avoid them.

Chu Xun was very angry at it. He had once told the people of the Martial Tao World that no battle pet was allowed to enter the city. It seemed that those people didn’t take his words seriously at all.

Overwhelming killing intent filled his heart.

Boom!

A huge gold lion was turned into a mist of blood by Chu Xun’s punch from a distance. The passers-by screamed in shock, and the warriors all looked at Chu Xun in surprise.

The master of the golden lion was an expert in the Human King Realm. He glared at Chu Xun and shouted at him. “Why did you kill my battle pet?”

Chu Xun really wanted to kill him directly, but he suppressed his anger and said, “No battle pet is allowed to enter Gujiang City. Didn’t you know this? Or you pretended that you knew nothing about this?”

The warrior’s face changed. Of course, he knew about this rule and also knew that it was Chu the Devil who set this rule. He asked angrily, “So what if I knew?”

“So you broke the rule deliberately, didn’t you?” Chu Xun’s eyes turned cold, and he launched an attack.

Boom!

The ground cracked, and half body of this first-grade Human King was pressed down into the ground. As a result, most of his bones got broken.

The warriors present all looked shocked. “This man is really frightening. Even a first-grade Human King stood no chance to fight against him.”

“He seems to be Chu the Devil,” someone said in horror.

Because there were Chu Xun’s photos on the Martial Tao Forum, someone recognized him.

“Well, I’m sure he is Chu the Devil,” someone said in a trembling voice.

The warriors present were frightened. They all knew how cruel Chu the Devil could be. In a panic, they all subconsciously stood away from their battle pets.

Especially this first-grade Human King who had been pressed into the ground, he was so frightened that his face turned pale. Not everyone liked to browse the Martial Tao Forum, such as this Human King. He had never visited this forum, so he didn’t know Chu Xun.

“Immortal... Immortal Chu, please don’t kill me...”

“You broke my rule deliberately, so I have no reason to spare you,” Chu Xun said in a cold voice.

He used to be an Immortal Emperor, and when he ruled the world, all the people submitted to him. The arrogance was deep rooted in his bones and never changed.

“Immortal Chu, please don’t kill us. We just wanted to exchange for some spiritual herbs and spiritual elixirs, and we had no intention to challenge you.”

“Immortal Chu, please forgive us. We’ve never let our battle pets hurt others. If there had been other roads, we wouldn’t have chosen to pass through the urban area.”

The warriors all begged for mercy. Because Chu Xun was well-known for his fierceness, they were all frightened by him.

“What do you mean by exchanging for spiritual herbs and spiritual elixirs?” Chu Xun asked.

One of the warriors said in a trembling voice, “Recently, there was a sect named Broken Souls Hall. It exchanged for fierce beasts with spiritual herbs and spiritual elixirs.”

“Broken Souls Hall? Broken Souls Cult?” Chu Xun thought to himself, “They must have something to do with each other.”

“Where is this sect located?” Chu Xun asked.

“It’s located where the Purple Bamboo Club used to be,” one warrior replied.

A terrifying murderous intent surged from Chu Xun’s body.

The Purple Bamboo Club used to be Hua Qingwu’s property. Later, all his friends and subordinates followed him to cultivate, so he handed all his properties in the secular world over to some people he trusted.

If he remembered correctly, it was the fake Yun Nanfeng he met in Yunyan City back then that was in charge of the Purple Bamboo Club.

Thinking of Hua Qingwu, who was lying in the ice coffin now, Chu Xun was filled with killing intent.

He thought that the Broken Souls Cult was challenging his bottom line.

“Get out of Gujiang City with your battle pets. The Broken Souls Hall won’t exist anymore from today on.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Xun disappeared with Jiu You.

“Hurry up... Let’s go...”

“Let’s leave here quickly. I was almost scared to death.”

“Damn Broken Souls Hall! I almost died because of it.”

The warriors were frightened. They fled in a hurry with their battle pets.

“Who can help me?” the first-grade Human King who was pressed down into the ground cried for help.

...

...

Chu Xun came to the place where the Purple Bamboo Club used to be located. When he looked at the three gilded words “Broken Souls Hall” on the building, his killing intent became stronger and stronger.

At this time, there were many warriors entering the building with their battle pets.

“Get out of here!” Chu Xun roared.

The fact that Hua Qingwu had been lying in an ice coffin for many years and that the property she left was seized by the Broken Souls Cult made Chu Xun extremely furious. He had never been as furious as at this moment.

Boom!

The three gilded words were turned into dust by Chu Xun’s furious punch. If the place hadn’t once been where the Purple Bamboo Club was located, he would have destroyed the whole building.

All the warriors were shocked.

Chu Xun moved quickly and crossed several hundred meters with each step. In several seconds, he had circled the building and sealed it with a magic formation. As a result, no one could escape.

“Piss off!” An angry, roaring voice sounded like thunder, and the warriors all felt dizzy after hearing the voice. The fierce beasts all lay on the ground, trembling.

“Who is it that dared to make a mess in the Broken Souls Hall?” a figure in a black robe who was in the Grandmaster Realm rushed out.

Chu Xun reached out his hand and clenched it hard.

Boom!

The figure exploded into a bloody mist.

“He... he is Chu the Devil.”

A warrior recognized Chu Xun and said in a trembling voice.

“In the period of three breaths, I’ll kill whoever doesn’t leave!” Chu Xun’s eyes turned bloodshot.

...

As his voice fell, there were booming sounds...

Several fierce beasts exploded, and their blood stained the ground.

“Run!” Someone shouted in horror.

Whoola!

Everyone began running wildly as if they had gone mad.

This caused a strange scene to happen.

Some warriors didn’t know what was going on, so when they saw a group of people escaping in a panic, they followed them subconsciously to flee as well. In the end, there were more and more people running in the group.

“My Taoist friends, why are you running?” someone asked.

“I don’t know. I’m just following others.”

“My Taoist friends, why are you running so hastily? Has any ancient relic appeared?”

“No, no relic has appeared! Something terrifying happened. Run, hurry up!”

“Fu*k... who can tell me why we are running? I’m so tired.”

...

Chu Xun rushed straight into the building.

“Come out quickly, all of you!”

His roar made the whole building shake.

However, it was so quiet in the building, and there was no response.

“Trying to hide from me?” Chu Xun’s divine sense spread away and covered the whole building.

Swoosh!

Chu Xun disappeared from where he was standing just now, and the next moment, he appeared in the basement of the building.

There was a secret channel in the basement that led to the outside.

Boom!

As Chu Xun waved his fist, a purple chain hit the ground, causing the entire secret channel to collapse.

Miserable shrieks could be heard coming from outside the channel.

At this time, Jiu You arrived.

“Kill them all.” After saying that, Chu Xun disappeared again.

On the roof of the building, a helicopter took off.

When Chu Xun reached the roof, the helicopter was already a kilometer away.

“Goodbye, Chu the Devil, haha...” a second-grade Human King said in provoking tone toward Chu Xun from a thousand meters away.

Chu Xun’s eyes turned bloodshot, and he jumped directly from the roof to the roof of another building. With the jump, he crossed hundreds of meters and chased after the helicopter.

“Let’s leave here, hurry up!”

There were three people in the helicopter, and the one with the highest cultivation among them was only a third-grade Human King. Seeing that Chu Xun was chasing after them at an astonishing speed, he couldn’t help but shout.

With the variation of the earth and the movement of its crust, the area of the earth expanded greatly. Those high-rise buildings which used to be close to each other now were hundreds of and even thousands of meters away from each other.

Chu Xun jumped across the buildings, looking like he was flying among them. With each jump, he crossed several hundred meters, and in several seconds, he caught up with the helicopter.

“Higher! Hurry up!” the people in the helicopter were panic-stricken.

Whoosh!

A purple shadow rolled flying toward the helicopter in the air. It turned out to be the Reincarnation Whip.

Boom!

The tip of the whip hit the helicopter, and with a booming sound, the helicopter’s propeller exploded. After the Reincarnation Whip winded the helicopter, Chu Xun gently pulled it.

The helicopter, without any propeller, was falling quickly, and as Chu Xun pulled the whip, the helicopter fell toward the ground at an even higher speed.

Boom!

Raging flames soared up into the sky, making deafening exploding sounds. The helicopter crashed on the ground.

At the moment the helicopter was about to touch the ground, three figures rushed out of it and fled in different directions.

Chu Xun didn’t expect to kill these Human Kings by crashing the helicopter. Seeing that they were fleeing in different directions, he showed a cruel smile.

He dashed away quickly and landed on the ground, and one of the three fleeing men happened to be right below him.

Boom!

The ground burst open, and the cracks extended. Chu Xun crushed the man below him with a heavy stamp.

Swoosh!

Chu Xun turned into a stream of light and flew to the west.

The second-grade Human King who had tried to provoke Chu Xun was running wildly. He was as fast as lightning, but he was still not fast enough when compared to Chu Xun.

After about ten breaths later, Chu Xun caught up with him.

When hearing the shrill whooshing sounds behind him, the Human King looked back, and he was so scared out of his wits.

Boom!

A purple word “kill” soared up with the wind and landed on his back, which caused him to explode into a bloody mist.

Swoosh!

Chu Xun disappeared in a flash and began to chase the third-grade Human King who fled to the east.

This Human King was escaping in a panic. He exerted his speed to the extreme, which was one-and-a-half times higher than the speed of sound-breaking.

However, Chu Xun now was already at the early-stage of the Golden Core Realm, and his speed was greatly increased, which was three times faster than the speed of sound-breaking.

When he heard the shrill whooshing sounds, the third-grade Human King got a chill on his back. His hair stood on end, and he knew Chu Xun had caught up with him.

Although he was a third-grade Human King and could be regarded as an expert all over the world, he knew that if he confronted Chu Xun, he would end up in a miserable situation.

Swoosh!

He suddenly changed his direction, broke through the window, and rushed into a house of a villager.

Chu Xun’s expression changed slightly, but he still followed him into the house.

“Chu the Devil, take a step forward, and I’ll kill him.” the Human King placed a sharp sword against a ten-year-old child’s neck.

It was the house of a family of three, and the dining table that was knocked over indicated that they were having a meal just now. The middle-aged couple were pale-faced, looking at the sword beside their child’s neck with fear.

“Please... don’t hurt my child...”

In the face of warriors, ordinary people seemed to be too weak. The couple could only beg the Human King for mercy.

“Let him go.” Chu Xun’s words were full of killing intent.

“Chu the Devil, I’ve learned of your methods. Let me off and I’ll naturally let the child go.”

“Let him go, and I can let you die in one piece,” Chu Xun said coldly.

“Chu the Devil, you don’t care about this child’s life at all?” the Human King pushed the sword slightly, leaving a cut on the child’s neck. Blood gushed out of the wound and dripped down along the sword.

The child’s parents were so worried that they burst into tears. They knelt down toward Chu Xun and cried, “Please... Please save my child... Please...”

Chu Xun hurriedly helped them up, but he was still full of anger. He somewhat understood why Emperor Ao asked him to protect ordinary people. They had no power to protect themselves in the face of warriors.

“Let him go. You can leave now,” Chu Xun said.

The Human King’s eyes flickered as he replied, “Why should I believe you?”

“I don’t care whether you believe me or not, and I won’t repeat it.”

“Well, then I’ll believe you. Your fame will be ruined if others know that you, Chu the Devil, doesn’t keep your words.” the Human King didn’t want to let the child go before he was safe, but he understood that it was easy for Chu Xun to catch up with him, so he thought he’d better let Chu Xun make a promise.

Swoosh!

The man withdrew his sword and dashed out through the window like a wind. He ran wildly and didn’t stop until he was a thousand meters away. He let out a sigh of relief when he found that Chu Xun didn’t chase after him.

However, he suddenly paused his step when he saw a very pretty girl standing in the way and looking at him with a mocking expression.
