Supreme Martial God of the City

"Xu Que, you... you, what are you doing here, leave quickly."

"None of your business."

Xu Que ran over angrily, completely ignoring Li Xiangqin's words, walked directly over, and took her hands.

"Xiao Qin, are you okay?"

"These people are too much, how could that piece of clothing possibly be worth two thousand spirit stones."

"Don't be afraid, I won't let you get hurt today."

Xu Que looked at Li Xiangqin with concern and said softly.

Ning Wei watched the two of them, a bitter smile appearing at the corner of her mouth. How wonderful to have a man who loves her so much and can face hardships together!

She remembered the sunny boy in the Ten Thousand Mountains, how gentle he was, caring for everyone meticulously, carrying many sweet lollipops, enjoying making people laugh and encouraging her. But when she was in the most difficult times, he didn't stand out like Xu Que to shield his lover from the storm.

If Ye Tian had heard this, he would certainly have cried out in injustice! Snowfall in April! It wasn't that he didn't want to help her, but he was immersed in the array on the Star Cloud Path and couldn't feel the outside world.

"Xu Que, I'm not even your girlfriend, why do you care about me?"

"Get lost!!"

Li Xiangqin's eyes were bloodshot, she broke free from Xu Que's big hands and shouted at him. Actually, his earlier words had deeply moved her but if Xu Que continued to be stubborn, he would surely die at the hands of Guo Da.

"Clap clap~~~"

"What a pair of lovers who live and die together, I, Guo Da, admire you."

"Here's the deal, Brother Xu, drink this glass of wine and we can pretend that nothing happened, how about that?"

Guo Da looked at them quietly, then suddenly started clapping, gazing at Xu Que as if he appreciated him.

"No way, when did Guo Da become so easy to talk to?"

"It's clear Xu Que didn't respect him, and now he's forgiving them."

"Am I seeing things??"

The martial artists were all very puzzled, whispering to each other softly.

"Young Master, this Guo Da, has he changed?"

Xie Yun's guard had only suffered minor injuries. Clutching his chest, he said with a frown.

"Heh, you don't understand, this kind of person is the most terrifying."

"Having two Spirit Martial Realm martial artists as guards, there is more to him than meets the eye, not just a Core Disciple of the Star Sect."

"It seems with the opening of the Heavenly Gate, all sorts of monsters and demons will come to this small city."

"Just watch, that guy will die a horrible death."

Xie Yun looked at Guo Da with a gloomy face and said slowly.

"Brother Beixuan, Brother Xu should be alright!"

"I didn't expect Guo Kai's brother to be so kind-hearted."

Xiao Huan tugged at Ye Tian's sleeve, smiling brightly and her eyes turning into crescent moons.

"Let's hope so."

"Otherwise..."

Ye Tian popped a peanut into his mouth and said blandly. In reality, he had sensed Guo Da's intention to kill Xu Que very clearly; this was impossible.

At the critical moment, he would still step in to help Xu Que and the rest, after all, Xu Que was his first genuine friend since arriving in Star City.

"Come, Brother Xu Que, drink this glass of wine."

"Fetch him a glass of wine."

Right now, Guo Da seemed very friendly, but his brother looked at Xu Que as if he were a dead man walking.

The Black Robed Man walked straight to the main table, picked up a glass of wine randomly, and put it in front of Xu Que with a sinister expression: "Take this glass of wine."

"Fine, I'll drink this glass of wine."

Xu Que knew that Guo Da wouldn't let him and Xiao Qin off so easily, but at this point, there was no way out. Weakness was his crime!!

There was another reason Xu Que didn't refuse. He had promised Xiao Qin not to be stubborn, and now with Guo Da looking at him with an admiring expression, he probably just wanted to have a drink with him voluntarily, nothing more. Perhaps he had no interest in an ant like him.

"Xu Que, you..."

Li Xiangqin took the wine glass, her face full of panic and worry. But Xu Que gave her a reassuring look and took the wine glass.

Xu Que walked to the main table and filled the glass to the brim.

He went to Guo Da, the glass filled so much that some of it spilled, and in front of all the martial artists in the hall, he drank it all in one gulp.

"Young Master Guo, I, Xu Que, first offer respect by finishing my drink."

"I drank it."

Xu Que drank the glass and claimed it meant what Guo Da had said: their grievances would dissolve, as if nothing had happened between them.

However.

In an instant, the amiable face of Guo Da twisted into something demonic.

"You dare to offer me a drink first? What trash do you think you are, huh!!! Do you even have the qualifications to respect me first? Do you think you are worthy of climbing up to me and offering me wine first? You filled the glass so full as if you are mocking me, thinking I'm not capable enough to finish it?"

"A useless ant."

Guo Da's smile vanished completely, his face filled with darkness as he pointed at Xu Que's nose and cursed fiercely.

Also, the wine glass Guo Da had been toying with for a long time flew out abruptly, along with its contents, smashing toward Xu Que's face.

Guo Da finally exposed his true colors, he wanted to humiliate Xu Que terribly in front of Li Xiangqin, to make him lose all face and never be able to hold his head up in Star City again.

The Guo brothers were not to be messed with by mere commoners. If he said two thousand spirit stones, it had to be two thousand. Even a little short, and you would lose your limbs. What could you do to him?

Guo Kai grinned, looking at Ning Wei and Li Xiangqin with pride, believing that his brother had shown unmatched strength tonight. By tomorrow, this incident would spread throughout Star City and Star Sect. Not only would Xu Que and Li Xiangqin become reviled by everyone, even Ning Wei would be implicated.

Guo Kai, not the brightest star in tomorrow's Star Sect evaluation, was already fantasizing about sweeping all before him, with no one daring to face him in battle.

Xu Que and Guo Da were only half an arm's length apart, almost face to face, which was too close, and Guo Da, possessing Mortal Martial Realm cultivation, suddenly turned against him.

So, Xu Que couldn't react at all and was struck directly by the wine glass, leaving his face bruised. In Guo Da's control, the wine glass and wine hit his face and slid down to his neck with considerable force.

Bang, the wine glass exploded violently under great spiritual power, shards like sharp little knives cutting through Xu Que's skin.

The glass shards quickly sliced through Xu Que's neck skin, the wound was quite deep and almost hit a major artery. Blood flowed rapidly, staining his Martial Artist's clothes. In an instant, the lower quality clothes turned bright red.

A mix of alcohol and blood filled the air.

"Xu Que, are you okay!! I told you not to interfere, you... sob sob sob~~~"

"Guo Da, you are going too far!!"
