Chapter 969 Princely Heir of the Commandery Prince's Mansion
Qin Hao dashed forward, a metallic long sword appeared in his hand, and in the blink of an eye, he caught up with the flying Guo Xiangtian.
Before the sword could fall, a voice came from afar: "Stop."
Qin Hao snorted coldly, the metallic long sword fell, leaving Guo Xiangtian decapitated, lifeless.
At that moment, a beast carriage soared in the distant night sky, two Red Fire Fierce Lion Beasts instantly arriving above the Golden Phoenix Building, carrying a young and handsome man on a luxurious carriage.
Seeing Guo Xiangtian's corpse on the ground, he slightly frowned: "You have a lot of nerve."
Those around, seeing the man on the carriage, looked shocked: "Is that the Princely Heir from the Commandery Prince's mansion, Gao Youwei?"
"He actually came! Is he here to avenge Guo Xiangtian?"
"The son of the Commandery Prince, he is essentially second only to one in all of Yuxing County, and no one dares to offend the son of the Commandery Prince."
"Gao Youwei is a once-in-a-century prodigy of the Commandery Prince's mansion, it's said he's now in the Late Stage of the Grandmaster Realm, his combat power terrifying beyond measure."
"I saw it with my own eyes back then, Gao Youwei slaughtered a beast in the Late Stage Grandmaster Realm, one must know beasts of the same realm have formidable combat abilities, at the very least comparable to cultivators at the Peak of Grandmaster Realm."
"The current young generation in the Commandery Prince's mansion has many talents, Gao Youwei doesn't even dare claim to be the top genius among them."
There was a lot of chatter among the crowd, all eyes on Gao Youwei in the luxurious carriage mid-air, only twenty years old and already at the Late Stage Grandmaster Realm, with a high chance of surpassing the current Commandery Prince, becoming a superior warrior in the future.
Qin Hao looked at him and said calmly: "Who the hell are you? You think I'll stop just because you say so?"
Arrogant, bold, domineering, powerful!
This was everyone's impression of Qin Hao, now facing the Princely Heir without a trace of fear, becoming even more domineering, just where did this reckless man come from?
Gao Youwei looked down from the air at Qin Hao and the others below: "Qin Hao, I know your combat strength is formidable, you have killed several Grandmaster Realm experts, including those in the Late Stage, but this is the Commandery Capital, the Commandery Prince's mansion."
The crowd was shocked at Gao Youwei's words, what did he call this person? Qin Hao? Why does the name sound so familiar?
"I remember, I know who he is." Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted loudly.
"He's the one who killed the governor of Jiangping State, destroyed the Red Cloud Sect, and silenced the Bi Yu Sect—Qin Hao."
"Damn, so he's that Qin Hao??"
"No wonder he dares proclaim to level Golden Phoenix Building, others aren't qualified, but he is!"
"He's Qin Hao, no wonder he's so fierce and overbearing, even the Bi Yu Sect remains silent under his pressure, let alone the mere Golden Phoenix Building, although it's related to the Commandery Prince's mansion, it's not directly part of it, just some connection."
"The Commandery Prince's mansion probably doesn't want to offend a powerful figure like Qin Hao either; if he grows stronger, the future will be terrifying."
…
Qin Hao spoke calmly: "So what if this is the Commandery Capital, so what if it's the Commandery Prince's mansion? If people don't invade me, I won't invade them. If you want to avenge Golden Phoenix Building, then come down and fight."
Gao Youwei smiled lightly: "Such people have no eyes; dying serves them right. I've helped him plenty, considered benevolent, but I've heard your combat strength is formidable, tonight I want to witness it myself."
After speaking, he flew down from the luxurious carriage, landing on the ground to stand opposite Qin Hao.
The crowd saw Gao Youwei's movement, feeling exhilarated, the young genius of the Commandery Prince's mansion was going to fight Qin Hao? This would undoubtedly be spectacular.
One is the famed Qin Hao, the other a young genius of the Commandery Prince's mansion, both fiery as they confront each other, a showdown of young prodigies.
"Who do you think will win in the end?" Someone asked softly.
"That's hard to say, although Qin Hao is only in the Innate Realm's Late Stage, his combat strength is terrifying, having slain Late Stage Grandmaster Realm experts."
"I think the Princely Heir Gao Youwei has a better chance, he's in the Late Stage Grandmaster Realm, trained for years by the Commandery Prince's mansion, his cultivation techniques and divine skills are far superior to those of the same realm, his combat strength must be even more frightening, not something ordinary Late Stage Grandmaster experts can match."
"Indeed, I also think Gao Youwei has a bigger chance of winning, his combat strength is certainly beyond a typical Late Stage Grandmaster expert."
"Qin Hao is just a loose cultivator, hasn't undergone focused training by a sect or family, his combat abilities are limited."
Qin Hao could sense the surging spiritual energy within Gao Youwei, speaking calmly: "If you wish to fight, then let's fight, I too want to experience the strength of the Commandery Prince's son."
Gao Youwei revealed a smile, assuming a stance: "Let me see if you truly are as formidable as the rumors say."
Qin Hao simply stood there: "Come on, make your move first, otherwise you won't have the chance."
"What bold words." Gao Youwei snorted coldly, a long spear appearing in his hand, the tip flashing with thunder—it was his magical weapon, the Thunder Gun.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh"
The long spear in her hand brandished, blue spear glows imbued with thundering power roared at Qin Hao.
Qin Hao remained unmoved, suddenly, sword qi surrounded his body, forming a protective sword qi, terrifying.
"Bang, bang, bang"
The spear glow collided with the invisible sword qi, dissipating immediately, unable to break through the sword qi defense.
Seeing this, Gao Youwei frowned slightly, such strong protective sword qi, this person's mastery over sword qi is truly frightening.
I, at the Late Stage Grandmaster Realm, haven't mastered spear intent, yet he, merely in the Innate Realm's Late Stage, has grasped a touch of sword intent.
"Lightning First Appears"
Gao Youwei flew into the air, the Thunder Gun pointed at Qin Hao, a spear glow swift as lightning, flashing violet, rushing at Qin Hao, more potent than the previous spear glow.
Qin Hao waved his arm, several sword qis met the spear glow head-on, dispersing it mid-path, the momentum unyielding, slashing, stabbing, chopping toward Gao Youwei.
Gao Youwei's expression changed slightly, swinging the long spear, shouting: "Thunder Moves in Nine Heavens."
This was the second form of the Thunderbolt Spear Skill, more potent, more terrifying, immediately followed by the third form of the Thunderbolt Spear Skill, "Thunderbolt Across the Sky."
The sword qi was shattered, the spear glow assaulted again.
Both sides exchanged blows fiercely, neither yielding.
"Is this all you've got?" Qin Hao sneered, his tone somewhat disdainful.
Gao Youwei's face turned red, he, a Late Stage Grandmaster Realm expert, facing Qin Hao, an Innate Realm cultivator, could not achieve an overwhelming advantage, this was a massive humiliation for him.
Qin Hao: "Since that's the case, let's finish this."
With that, countless sword qis erupted from Qin Hao's body, rushing at Gao Youwei, filling the entire starry sky, stars dimmed, the sun and moon veiled, the scene was terrifying.
"Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh"
Countless sword qis bore whistling sounds of piercing through space, vanishing in an instant.
Gao Youwei's face was extremely grave, the Thunder Gun wielded to the limit, the Thunderbolt Spear Skill was demonstrated to its fullest, in less than a second, he unleashed all six forms of the Thunderbolt Spear Skill.
