World’s End: My Keyword is One More Than Others - Chapter 288: Heart attack kill

“Senior Brother, just as that scoundrel said, the Sect Leaders of various sects have been lured to the capital by the Special Affairs Bureau under the pretext of the Heavenly Demon. I’m afraid their fate is grim…”

Wu Huai’s figure reappeared in the formation. As soon as he showed up, he hurriedly spoke, but then his gaze fell on Liu Guang, who was charred black by the Five Thunder Talisman, and he was stunned. “Senior Brother, what happened to you?”

The next second.

His expression changed dramatically: “Senior Brother, what are you doing? Why are you suppressing me with the formation?”

Before he could finish speaking.

Du Ge raised his hand and cast a protective talisman, then threw a punch straight at Wu Huai: “Idiot, being played like a puppet and still unaware. Have you lived all these years for nothing?”

“Senior Brother?” Wu Huai was dazed by the punch, completely clueless about what was happening.

“Cheng, my young friend, if you have something to discuss, there’s no need to be so rough with my junior brother!” Liu Guang said.

“Uncle Liu, you’ve probably been cultivating for so long that you’ve forgotten how to deal with people. For stubborn old fellows like him, if you don’t beat them into submission, they won’t listen to you.” Du Ge smiled, but his hands didn’t stop. While pummeling Wu Huai, he asked, “Do you submit?”

“Submit to what? If you have the guts, let my senior brother lift the suppression on me, and we’ll fight fair and square.” Wu Huai was extremely angry. His spiritual power was suppressed by ninety percent, and Du Ge had the upper hand. Now, he was at a disadvantage in every way, feeling utterly aggrieved and confused about what was happening.

“I was similarly suppressed by your senior brother’s formation earlier. After you left, I turned the tables and even made your senior brother submit.” Du Ge laughed, “And I’ve only been cultivating for three days. To achieve this. You’ve been cultivating for seventy or eighty years. Even with ninety percent of your spiritual power suppressed, you should still be stronger than me. What face do you have to demand the suppression be lifted? Were you and your senior brother fair and square with me earlier?”

“…” Zhang Ziqing and the others were suddenly stunned. They hadn’t thought much of it before, but now, comparing the two, they were once again astonished by Du Ge’s prowess.

Liu Guang felt utterly ashamed.

He was indeed Du Ge’s friend, but he was also Wu Huai’s senior brother. Watching his junior brother get beaten up, he initially wanted to lift the suppression and let them fight fairly. But hearing Du Ge’s words, he immediately abandoned that idea.

“You’re talking nonsense. How could someone who has only cultivated for three days fight against someone at the Refining Spirit Returning to Void stage?” Wu Huai retorted angrily.

“Uncle, Cheng Yu indeed only became a disciple of Daoist Priest Suwen the day before yesterday,” Zhang Ziqing said, blushing. “These matters can be verified.”

“…” Wu Huai was stunned.

“…” Liu Guang was also stunned.

“Can’t win a fight, can’t win an argument, easily manipulated by a few words, and still so stubborn?” Du Ge laughed, “And such a person is a high-ranking member of the sect, holding himself in high regard. Such a cultivation world is truly shameful to be associated with!”

“You…” Wu Huai was speechless.

“You don’t believe it?” Du Ge asked.

“Of course not,” Wu Huai replied.

“Then I’ll let you verify it!” Du Ge said, “I’m sure Tianshi Mountain has a way to contact Qingxin Temple. Just make a call and ask. If you don’t trust me, surely you trust my master, Daoist Priest Suwen?”

“…” Wu Huai was stunned, then overjoyed, “Alright, I’ll contact Daoist Priest Suwen right away. If what you say is true…”

Before he could finish, Du Ge interrupted him: “See, I told you you’d be easily manipulated by a few words!”

Facing Du Ge’s disdainful gaze, Wu Huai almost spat out a mouthful of blood. His face turned beet red, and he couldn’t utter a single word.

What could he say?

Could he admit that he wanted to use this opportunity to escape and find help outside? That would be even more disgraceful!

“I have to say, the fact that you’ve managed to cultivate smoothly to seventy or eighty years old is closely tied to the peace in the cultivation world for so many years!” Du Ge sighed, his tone filled with disdain. “No wonder a group of Sect Leaders could be so easily manipulated by the Special Affairs Bureau. As the saying goes, so naive, so foolish…”

Wu Huai glared at Du Ge, wanting to retort but not knowing how. He wanted to fight back, but he couldn’t even lift a hand.

The most crucial point was, the more he thought about it, the more he realized that every word Du Ge said was an undeniable fact.

In a fit of rage, he spat out a mouthful of blood.

At that moment, he suddenly began to doubt his own cultivation and strength.

Was he really that incompetent?

At that moment, the disheartened Wu Huai felt utterly despondent, losing all hope in life. He sighed in despair, “Just kill me!”

Du Ge was stunned.

Damn.

Did the heart attack kill start already?

It didn’t seem that difficult!

This old Daoist’s will was too weak. How did he reach such a high level of cultivation?

Beside him, Chen Ziyong smacked his lips, looking at Du Ge with admiration. Killing with words, was this the proper use of discrimination?

Compared to Cheng Yu, he felt like a naive three-year-old!

If he went out, wouldn’t he become another Du Ge?

“Giving up already?” Du Ge stopped his hand, frowning at Wu Huai, and scolded, “Can’t even withstand a bit of verbal attack. What will the younger generation think of you? They still know not to give up, still know to find ways to fight the Heavenly Demon to save the cultivation world. With such high cultivation, you say give up and you give up. What are you thinking?”

“…”

Zhang Ziqing and the others suddenly recalled their experience from last night. Their faces flushed. Back then, they were similarly beaten down by Du Ge, losing all confidence, not much better than Uncle Wu!

Fortunately, Cheng Yu had pulled them back from the brink. Using them as an example was truly shameful!

However.

On closer thought, Cheng Yu’s words made a lot of sense. The cultivation world, from top to bottom, was rotten to the core. Without some reform, it wouldn’t work.

“I…” Wu Huai opened his eyes.

“I’ve only been cultivating for three days, yet I know that in times of adversity, one must never give up. Persist, and there will be a tomorrow.” Du Ge said, “As a senior in the cultivation world, shouldn’t you set an example?

Wu Huai, pull yourself together. The Sect Leaders of various sects have likely fallen. Now, we need to fight the Heavenly Demon controlling the Special Affairs Bureau. The chaos caused by the Heavenly Demon is actually beneficial for the cultivation world.

The cultivation world has been peaceful for too long. Only by breaking the old ways with the Heavenly Demon can the cultivation world be revitalized.

Fight, only by fighting can we break through ourselves and hope to reach the Core Formation stage. Uncle Wu, pull yourself together. Let’s join hands and drive out the Heavenly Demon, leaving our names in history.”

Liu Guang also fell into deep thought.

To be honest, every word Du Ge used to scold Wu Huai hit home for him as well, making him feel like he had lived all these years for nothing.

The heart attack kill worked on him too.

Ultimately, Du Ge’s inspiring words pulled him back. Looking at Du Ge again, his forehead was already covered in sweat.

This young man was terrifying!

“You’re not from Sanqing Hall?” Wu Huai asked.

“Of course not.” Du Ge shook his head, smiling, “I’m just a novice disciple of Qingxin Temple, with a bit of talent, standing up in this time of crisis. Moreover, my cultivation technique has always been the ‘Concentration Technique,’ and my spells are newly learned. It can withstand scrutiny.”

As he spoke.

He calmly extended his hand, “If you don’t believe me, Uncle Wu, feel free to check.”

Liu Guang was verbally subdued by Du Ge with the Tianshi Seal.

But Wu Huai was completely crushed by Du Ge, forced into submission.

Both verbal and heartfelt submission are still submission.

The saying “no fight, no acquaintance” quietly took effect. Wu Huai looked at Du Ge’s extended hand, his expression complex. He knew that if he reached out, he could restrain Du Ge. But in the end, he didn’t touch Du Ge’s pulse, only sighed in defeat, “The waves behind push the waves ahead, I have to admit. Cheng, my young friend, what do you plan to do?”

“I plan to release the Ghost King from the Demon Sealing Cave, using the Ghost King’s power to fight the Heavenly Demon of the Special Affairs Bureau.” Du Ge said frankly.

“No way.” Two voices spoke simultaneously.

Liu Guang said urgently, “Cheng, my young friend, the Ghost King suppressed in the Demon Sealing Cave has been there for thousands of years. They have been devouring each other. If released, no one in the human world can control them! It’s said that there are also monsters in the Demon Sealing Cave. Moreover, being trapped for a thousand years, they must harbor deep hatred for the human world…”

Du Ge looked at Liu Guang, about to explain the dangers and powers of the Heavenly Demon.

At that moment.

A soft cough came from the direction of the Demon Sealing Cave.

Then, a clear voice, tinged with a hint of resentment, sounded, “Old fellow, you’re not me. How do you know I harbor deep hatred for the human world? That little guy is right. The current cultivation world truly lacks courage!”
