I have the face of a great demon.

Hu Daniu's hand was only an inch away from the divine sword, and it was about to be in his grasp.

Suddenly, he felt the sound of a weapon cutting through the air behind his head. He hurriedly rolled to the side, dodging the fatal blow.

Turning around, I realized that it was Deacon Liao who had launched the sneak attack.

"Liao Dayou, you traitor, how dare you attack me! You fickle and despicable man!"

"Hu Daniu, this sword is mine. Even if it means betraying all the gangs in the martial arts world, I will get my hands on this sword."

As they spoke, Deacon Liao approached the divine sword and reached out to draw it.

"Don't think about it!"

Hu Daniu wasn't about to let him succeed, and immediately raised his hand to strike with his sword.

The two immediately started fighting.

For the sake of the divine sword, Hu Daniu and Deacon Liao fought desperately, each strike aimed directly at the other's vital points.

Each time he forced his opponent back, he would step forward to draw his sword, only to be forced back again by the opponent's attack.

For a time, neither of them could succeed, and the stalemate continued.

At this moment, Tie Zhu dealt with the enemies who surrounded him and came over to help Senior Brother Qin.

Senior Brother Qin was able to break free and head straight for the divine sword.

Deacon Liao and Hu Daniu were locked in a stalemate when they saw Senior Brother Qin also trying to snatch the sword. They were not about to let him reap the benefits, so the two of them took a moment to swing their swords and force Senior Brother Qin back.

Knowing that his martial arts skills were inferior to the two, Senior Brother Qin dared not launch a direct attack and immediately retreated. When the two saw him retreat and resumed their fight, he seized the opportunity to step forward and snatch the sword.

Deacon Liao and Hu Daniu were annoyed by his harassment. When they saw that the Blue Whale Gang members were suffering heavy casualties at the hands of the two Taoists and were about to be wiped out, the two Taoists would be free to use their hands and the divine sword would be someone else's.

The two were extremely anxious, and Deacon Liao was the first to suggest:

"Hu Daniu, let's join forces to kill that kid Qin first, then we'll fight for the Divine Sword."

"Okay, I agree."

After exchanging another move, Senior Brother Qin stepped forward again to snatch the divine sword. The two exchanged a glance, and Manager Liao withdrew his sword and withdrew from the battle. He then unleashed a fierce sword strike at Senior Brother Qin.

Seeing that Deacon Liao kept his promise and attacked Senior Brother Qin, Hu Daniu also leaped towards Senior Brother Qin, intending to join forces to kill him and get rid of this troublesome fellow.

Liu Xingchen and Tie Zhu were dealing with the gang members who were attacking them, but his attention was always on his senior brother Qin. If anything happened, he would definitely come to his rescue.

Seeing that Deacon Liao and Hu Daniu were working together to deal with Senior Brother Qin, he was about to make a move, but upon closer inspection, he realized that Deacon Liao was up to something.

He clearly attacked Senior Brother Qin first, but deliberately lagged behind by half a step, not using his full sword force, obviously holding back a move.

After Liu Xingchen began cultivating immortality, his strength was no longer on the same level as theirs. He saw through Deacon Liao's plan at a glance, stopped what he was doing, and waited with his hands behind his back to watch the show.

As expected, just when Senior Brother Qin had nowhere to dodge, Deacon Liao's sword changed angle and instead of stabbing Senior Brother Qin, it stabbed Hu Daniu.

Caught off guard, Hu Daniu was stabbed in the back by the sword and fell to the ground instantly.

"Liao Dayou, you two-faced scoundrel."

Deacon Liao chuckled smugly: "Hehe, that's called all's fair in war. You blockhead deserved to be fooled."

With Hu Daniu, his biggest competitor, eliminated, Senior Brother Qin is no longer a threat, and he can now confidently go and retrieve the divine sword.

The thought that with the divine sword in hand, he could become a top master who would dominate the martial arts world, and even the gang leader would have to give up his position to him filled Deacon Liao with pride. His eyes were fixed on the divine sword that was within reach, filled with greed.

The moment his fingertips touched the hilt of the sword, the divine sword actually moved.

It actually stepped back, as if an invisible hand had pulled it out of the tree trunk.

When Deacon Liao gripped the sword, he originally intended to hold the hilt, but as the divine sword retreated, what he grasped was not the hilt, but the sharp blade.

"Ah~~~~"

Deacon Liao let out a heart-wrenching scream. His hand was severed by the divine sword as easily as if it were tofu. He was in so much pain that cold sweat poured down his forehead and his face turned as white as paper.

How could this be?

Why does the divine sword move on its own?

Does it look down on me and not want me to be its owner?

Deacon Liao clutched his wound in pain, looking completely bewildered.

Hu Daniu was still alive. Hearing Deacon Liao's screams and seeing his miserable state, he was also puzzled.

With no one to restrain him, how could Deacon Liao be injured like this just by taking a sword?

There's no one else around this divine sword.

He looked back again and then it dawned on him.

It turned out that the young Taoist priest was holding the divine sword in a strange gesture.

Could it be that his subordinates said the sword was too fast and they didn't see the person wielding it? It turns out there was no one wielding the sword at all; the sword just flew over and killed someone.

Hu Daniu's heart tightened, and he thought to himself, "I'm doomed. Could this person be an immortal? Otherwise, how could he control the divine sword with magic?"

It seems the entire group he brought is going to be wiped out.

He looked again and couldn't help but smile bitterly. There was no need for the young Taoist priest to make a move. The towering Taoist priest wielded two iron maces, smashing the heads of his men one by one like watermelons.

In just a short time, all the men he brought were gone.

At this moment, the divine sword was hanging in mid-air, its tip pointing at Deacon Liao. Deacon Liao was so frightened that he sat down on the ground, not daring to move, for fear of angering the immortal and having his head taken by the sword.

"Liao Dayou, you've finally met your match."

Seeing this, Hu Daniu managed a weak smile, then spat out a mouthful of blood, his head lolled to the side, and he breathed his last.

Senior Brother Qin was completely stunned. It took him a long time to react. It turned out that the mysterious person who had saved him from danger was Liu Xingchen, and that the divine sword was controlled by Liu Xingchen.

If Liu Xingchen can wield a celestial sword in the void, wouldn't he have already become a celestial being?

Senior Brother Qin was startled and thought to himself, "This is an immortal! Should I kneel down and pay my respects?"

Even Senior Brother Qin understood, and Deacon Liao was no exception. He knew he had met a tough opponent, and one who was an immortal.

Deacon Liao was ashen-faced, tears streaming down his face, and he kept banging his head on the ground, making a "thump-thump" sound.

"Immortal, have mercy! I was blind and offended you, even daring to steal your divine sword. I deserve to die. Please, Immortal, have mercy and spare my life."

He kowtowed and pleaded, his voice filled with despair and regret.

The enemy had been wiped out, and Liu Xingchen walked over slowly with Tie Zhu.

He looked coldly at Deacon Liao and said sternly:

"Since you know you deserve to die, then die."

After he finished speaking, the divine sword moved slightly, which terrified Deacon Liao so much that he wet himself.

"No! Please, immortal, spare my life!"

"Heh, as expected, you're a cowardly rat who fears death. But you haven't offended us, you've offended Senior Brother Qin. Whether or not to spare your life is up to Senior Brother Qin to decide."
