Immortal Pilgrimage Chapter 6

"How can we do that! We will not abandon you and leave first!" When Ji Da Chun heard that Su Yu wanted him and his family to leave while he, Su Yu, would help to obstruct Liu Yan Qing, Ji Da Chun immediately felt uneasy.

Su Yu's anxious expression turned graver, and he spoke loudly, "Uncle Ji, have you forgotten my state when I was in your courtyard? When the time comes, I alone will be able to escape. Quickly leave with Yue'er and Aunt Rou! Enter the mountains and escape as far as possible!"

Su Yu's reminder caused Ji Da Chun to recall the happenings that had previously occurred in his courtyard. The terrifying power that Su Yu had showcased caused him to have a bit more trust in Su Yu in his heart. When the fact regarding his whole family being here hit him, he knew that he and his family would only be a burden to Su Yu since they wouldn't be of any help.

When Ji Da Chun thought to this point, he could only nod his head. He understood that at this time, it wasn’t about feelings of spirit or loyalty and self-sacrifice, so he heavily patted Su Yu’s shoulder and said, “You be careful then. Let’s meet if we are fated to meet each other.”

Ji Da Chun then pulled Yue’er and Hu Rou to leave. Yue’er wasn’t willing to at first, but under Su Yu’s meaningful glance, she eventually tearfully followed Ji Da Chun and left together with her family.

The moment Liu Bing saw that Ji Da Chun and his family had left, leaving only Su Yu standing in front of the Village entrance, he hurriedly approached Liu Yan Qing’s side and whispered, “Young lord, Ji Da Chun and his family had already left to escape, do you want this lowly one to bring a few……”

“No need! Only a few low-status people, they're unable to enter this young lord’s eyes. If they escape, so be it. The most important matter now is that boy….” As he spoke, Liu Yan Qing pointed at Su Yu, and the corners of his mouth began to rise into a sinister smile.

He slowly walked forwards till he was only around 10 meters away before stopping.

He first sized Su Yu up and down before nodding his head and joked, “Your looks are not bad, a fine pretty boy. Were it not for this young lord not being a h.o.m.os.e.xual, who knows, perhaps I would have kept you.”

“Hā hā……” One by one, everyone behind Liu Yan Qing immediately started to laugh upon hearing what Liu Yan Qing said.

Su Yu sneered and asked, “So I should feel honored?”

“No…no need, there’s no need to do so. Just knowing that what comes after is your miserable death will do.” A sinister smile suddenly appeared on Liu Yan Qing’s face.

Boom!

Once the words left his mouth, he abruptly launched his attack.

He struck his hand out as his whole body rushed up towards Su Yu.

As his figure rapidly advanced, his outstretched hand immediately took the form of an eagle’s talons. Aiming for Su Yu’s throat, he ruthlessly struck.

Liu Yan Qing really deserved to be called someone who had a foot into the 1st Realm — Boundary Realm. After he had stretched out his hand, it took the form of an eagle’s talons. Together with the speed of his body, it even caused a series of sharp and intense explosions by tearing through the winds. Faintly, it was like a resolute roaring of qi.

Seeing that Liu Yan Qing’s hand was going for his neck, Su Yu’s face turned extremely serious.

The current him was only an ordinary person. Even if his body still contained the remnant of the previously gotten power which had suddenly surged out, he was aware that just by relying on the remaining power was certainly not enough to contend against Liu Yan Qing.

However, this situation was like an arrow that was already drawn on the bow, and there wasn’t any other choice but to shoot. Facing Liu Yan Qing’s attack, he could only do his best to fight back!

Su Yu’s expression turned fierce, and he also rapidly advanced towards Liu Yan Qing. During the time when his body was moving, he sent out a fist.

“Courting death!” When Liu Yan Qing saw that Su Yu wasn’t evading but strongly resisting him instead, his sinister smiled instantly turned into scorn.

Bang!

The sound of impact suddenly sounded out and afterward, it could be seen that Su Yu and Liu Yan Qing each retreated 10 steps.

The first round was surprisingly a draw!

This time, the servants immediately had an astonished expression, and Liu Yan Qing's became incomparably gloomy.

In Liu Yan Qing's mind, he thought that he was someone who already had a foot in the Boundary Realm, but from this bout, he unexpectedly turned out to be just as strong as an ordinary person?

Wasn't this a slap to his face?

"Interesting! Looks like this pretty boy has some knack……since it's like this, allow me to have another bout with you!" Liu Yan Qing sneered. After his declaration, he once again advanced towards Su Yu.

At that moment, Su Yu's expression turned solemn.

Though the previous attack had already used up half of the remaining limited power in his body, at this moment, he couldn't back down!

He must struggle to buy more time so that Ji Da Chun and his family would be able to escape into the mountains.

Hence, he wanted to raise his hand for the second bout, but this time, he quickly found out that he wasn't able to do so.

At this moment, Su Yu noticed that his body suddenly didn't have any strength left. The next second, what came over him was a heavy spell of dizziness.

Thump!

Due to the sudden loss of strength, Su Yu naturally could not avoid Liu Yan Qing’s blow. Like this, he was sent flying by Liu Yan Qing’s fist. After that, his whole body was like a bomb, dropping onto the ground.

“Pù!” Su Yu spurted out fresh blood, followed by a heart-rending pain.

“Oh? Why do you look like you suddenly withered? Weren’t you very powerful just now?” When Liu Yan Qing saw that Su Yu suddenly was helpless and unable to resist being sent flying with his fist, a little feeling of surprise flashed across his eyes.

“Cough cough……” After spurting out blood, Su Yu struggled to get up, but he noticed that he didn’t even have the strength to do that.

Upon seeing that Su Yu who was already struggling a number of times had yet to get up, a strong expression of contempt once again appeared on Liu Yan Qing’s face.

“A pretty boy is just a pretty boy after all; just receiving one fist from me and already cannot climb back up? You really are a worthless person! Since you dare to beat my Liu Family’s people, then give me your life!” Liu Yan Qing slowly walked towards Su Yu, but just as he lifted his foot to mercilessly stomp on Su Yu’s chest, an aged voice abruptly sounded out.

"Nowadays do all of the youngsters love to fight and kill? Not good, not good, young man, it's better to learn to be tranquil and even-tempered. Don't kill for no reason." Following the voice, a dirty and shabbily dressed old beggar appeared before everyone's line of sight.

In one of his hands was an extremely old gourd, and in the other was a bamboo stick. He was slowly walking towards the crowd.

"Are you talking to me?" Liu Yan looked at the old beggar, and his gaze turned cold.

"Yes, I am." The old beggar smacked his lips then smiled at Liu Yan Qing, exposing his two rows of yellow teeth.

“Old b*st*rd, are you tired of living? Then good, this young lord will send you on your way!” The corner of Liu Yan Qing’s mouth rose into a sinister smile. The next second, he punched out, rapidly stirring up a wind fist mid-air. Afterward, that fist advanced towards the old beggar’s chest.

“No!” Witnessing the situation before him, Su Yu shouted in grievance as the old beggar had come to speak for his sake. If he caused the old beggar to lose his life at the hands of Liu Yan Qing, be it dead or alive, it would be difficult for his heart to be at ease.

A second later, Su Yu exhausted all his body’s strength and energy to stand in front of the beggar, s.h.i.+elding him.

Bang!

Another punch!

Su Yu was ruthlessly punched at the chest.

"Pù!" Su Yu's once again spurt out a mouthful of fresh blood.

When the old beggar saw this, he instantly rolled his eyes at Su Yu and spoke in dissatisfaction, “Who wanted you to help s.h.i.+eld me! It’s just only an ordinary person that has a foot in the Boundary Realm. A punch like that, even me being an old beggar, I can still block it! Really a busybody!”

The old beggar’s words caused Su Yu to have the impulse and desire to shout out insults.

However, in the end, he found that he didn’t even have the strength to make an insult.

“Old b*st*rd, just now that pretty boy s.h.i.+elded you from my punch. Let's see now whether there’s still anyone who would help you block this punch of mine? Give me your life!” Liu Yan Qing roared in fury, and he once again sent out a punch at the old beggar's chest.

However, Liu Yan Qing suddenly noticed that he could not move…

Following that, a pressure similar to that of Mount Tai pressed upon him.

Thump!

Accompanying that sound, Liu Yan Qing ended up kneeling.

“Āiya, young man, why did you suddenly kneel down? This old beggar cannot accept your kneel or this one’s life will be shortened. Quickly get up, this old beggar still wants to live for a few more years.” The old beggar drank a mouthful of wine from the gourd then happily smacked his lips.

Liu Yan Qing felt abased when he heard the old man.

He now recalled something, but at this key moment he could not stand up!

If he still didn't understand what was going on now, then he had lived more than 20 years of his life in vain. He discovered that today he had b.u.mped into an iron plate! Who was this old beggar who looked extremely weak to even stand against the wind?

Without making any movement or action, the old beggar was already able to cause him to be unable to move a finger. This cultivation level wasn’t something common low-level cultivators should have.

This old beggar was certainly a strong cultivator!

When Liu Yan Qing thought up to here, he forcefully clenched his teeth then cupped a fist into his other hand and said, “Old senior, it’s this younger generation’s fault for having eyes but failing to see and offending you. A great man would not harbor grudges for the younger generation’s past wrongs. Please forgive and let this younger generation off this one time!”

The old beggar immediately responded while waving his hand, “Don’t, don’t, don’t. Don't call me old senior, I’m still not able to bear the weight of this term of address. It’s still better if you call me old b*st*rd, I’m already used to it.”

Liu Yan Qing’s gaze turned cold when he heard the old beggar's response.

However, having no choice, he could only lower his head and asked the old beggar, “Then old senior, what exactly do you want?”
