<h4>Chapter 1369: Chapter 1366: If You Can’t Win, Admit Defeat</h4>


    Xu Wendong’s words triggered an uproar, filling people with dread and a chill down their spines.


    It must be known that the Qingyun Sect is one of the top forces in Yaohua Country!


    Especially the Sect Master of Qingyun Sect, his strength is unparalleled in the entire Human Race.


    But now.


    This young and unknown Xu Wendong imed he could destroy the entire Qingyun Sect, who could remain calm?


    Hongying’s lively eyes kept trembling. Perhaps others did not believe Xu Wendong, but for some reason, looking at his gentle eyes and indifferent expression.


    She had an unrealistic premonition.


    Perhaps this fellow really could destroy the Qingyun Sect.


    After all.


    He himself was a miracle, and a brotherly figure among the top leaders of the Demon Race.


    If not for him, they would not have left the Demon Realm alive.


    "How dare you boast, with your ant-like existence, dare you talk of destroying my Qingyun Sect? Watch how I cut you down!" the Qingyun Sect’s Third Elder shouted angrily, the Immortal Sword in his hand erupting with a devastating aura, tearing through the void, appearing before Xu Wendong.


    This sword swept away all obstacles.


    Unstoppable.


    Like a rainbow piercing the sun.


    In an instant, it appeared in front of Xu Wendong.


    Seeing this scene.


    Everyone knew that even if Xu Wendong had remarkable strength, he could not withstand the wrathful One Strike of a Second-Level Loose Immortal wielding an Immortal Sword.


    Even though the Qingyun Sect’s Third Elder had been pped away by Xu Wendong earlier, everyone could see it was due to the Third Elder’s carelessness.


    He hadn’t taken Xu Wendong seriously before, not giving his all, which led to him being knocked away.


    But now.


    He was giving his all, wielding a Lower Grade Immortal Sword, how could Xu Wendong be his match?


    Just as everyone thought Xu Wendong was doomed, to be pierced through by Sword Qi, he suddenly extended his right palm, astonishing everyone as he grasped the world-shattering Sword Qi barehanded.


    The world fell silent.


    Time seemed to stop flowing.


    Everyone stared in shock at the figure in the air d in a ck Brocade Robe, tall and upright, with undisguised amazement in their eyes.


    They simply couldn’t conceive that a Great Ascension Peak Cultivator could seize a wrathful One Strike from a Second-Level Loose Immortal wielding an Immortal Sword barehanded!


    This level of strength was terrifying, beyond what a mortal could possess.


    While everyone was still in shock and panic, Xu Wendong moved, casually swinging, and that devastating Sword Qi flew from his hand.


    The Sword Qi pierced through the void, entering the body of the Qingyun Sect’s Third Elder.


    In the next moment.


    The Qingyun Sect’s Third Elder’s Physical Body exploded into a mist of blood, his soul vanishing from the world.


    "How could this be?" Li Tianyang turned ashen, crying out in disbelief, his body trembling uncontrobly, unable to ept that the Third Elder had died at the hands of the Great Ascension junior, Xu Wendong.


    And at this moment.


    He saw Xu Wendong fixing his gaze upon him.


    Instantly.


    His heart stopped, as if a mighty Ancient Primordial Fierce Beast had set sights on him, feeling as if he had brushed past the Grim Reaper.


    It seemed a single nce could obliterate his life.


    Without hesitation, Li Tianyang eximed in terror, "Senior, calm your anger, senior, calm your anger, I will not marry Hongying!"


    Saying this, he desperately looked at Hongying, urging, "Hongying, quickly, break off the engagement with me!"


    Li Tianyang was quite astute.


    Not letting fear cloud his judgment.


    Not directly breaking off the engagement himself, but prompting Hongying to do so, preserving her dignity.


    After all.


    In the Cultivation World, if one side initiates the break of an engagement, the other will certainly suffer a blow to their dignity.


    Xu Wendong didn’t wish to massacre indiscriminately, seeing Li Tianyang so sensible, he showed a hint of an inscrutable smile, then looked at Hongying.


    Hongying, shocked, came to her senses, clearly astonished by Xu Wendong’s strength.


    She took a deep breath, calming her inner emotions, and softly said, "Since Young Master Li wishes to annul the engagement, let it be so; our marriage agreement is henceforth nullified."


    "Thank you, thank you!" Li Tianyang felt released from great distress, expressing his gratitude repeatedly, his previous arrogance and disdain all but gone.


    Xu Wendong nonchntly said, "Li, today’s matter ends here. If you harbor resentment, or seek revenge, you may me me for mercilessly ughtering your entire Qingyun Sect!"


    "I dare not, I dare not!" Li Tianyang trembled in fear.


    Xu Wendong: "Get lost!"


    "I will leave immediately, I will leave immediately!" Li Tianyang fled like a beaten dog, taking his wedding procession and disappearing into the sky.


    Though he could not marry his beloved woman today.


    Although his dignity was ruined.


    To him, as long as he lives, nothing else matters.


    ------


    "Long time no see, you’ve gotten thinner!" Xu Wendong hovered in mid-air, looking at Hongying with a face full of affection, his eyes filled with deep tenderness.


    Seeing Xu Wendong’s gentle gaze, Hongying felt a surge of emotion, turning to fly towards Xu Wendong, nestling into his embrace, greedily inhaling his scent.


    Her heart filled with a strong sense of security.


    It felt like nothing could shake her, even if the heavens were falling.


    "I thought I’d never see you again in this life!" Hongying said, tears of joy streaming down her face.


    Xu Wendong smiled and said, "Here I am, haven’t I?"


    Hongying nodded excitedly, then as if recalling something, she led Xu Wendong down to the Li Mountain Sect’s gate and then looked at Yue Fenghua, respectfully saying, "Master, Young Master Xu is my savior. Many years ago, I pledged myself to him. We share a deep and genuine love and hope to receive your blessing!"


    Yue Fenghua suppressed his anger and said, "So, for a man, you wish to disregard the life and death of our Li Mountain Sect?"


    Hongying’s pupils trembled, forcing down her inner tension, and said, "I never had such intentions; it was Li Tianyang who asked me to annul the engagement."


    Yue Fenghua whispered, "If you truly wish to marry, who could stop you?" casting a vicious re at Xu Wendong, though the fellow’s strength was indeed substantial.


    But to him, Li Tianyang was far more pleasing.


    After all, Li Tianyang is the Young Sect Master of Qingyun Sect!


    Xu Wendong said coldly, "You know perfectly well Hongying doesn’t want to marry, so why force her to wed Li Tianyang? Just because you’re her master, you think you can dictate her life at will?"


    Seeing Xu Wendong’s deep and cold gaze, Yue Fenghua’s pupils began to tremble violently, his heart surged with unease, he had not expected this man, as Hongying’s Daoist couple, to dare speak to him in such tone.


    Considering seniority, Xu Wendong should call him Master.


    Taking a deep breath, Yue Fenghua suppressed his unease and said, "Hongying is my disciple, and as her master, I wish to marry her to a promising young man, what’s wrong with that?"


    "This is clearly for her benefit!"


    Xu Wendong smiled faintly, "Is that really so?"
