Chapter 163: One Punch! Beaten to Death!

Chapter 163: Chapter 163: One Punch! Beaten to Death!

Bounty: 25.6 million taels!

Contribution points: 26 points!

Luo Cheng was also surprised by this reward.

Three two-star top-level missions, excluding the escort mission paid by the Ling Family.

The bounty for the remaining two missions should be 5.6 million taels and 6 sect contribution points.

But now, it’s been multiplied several times!

“Elder, about this bounty…”

Elder He was about to answer when a loud voice interrupted.

“Elder He, you’ve got this wrong!”

Yang Li pointed at Luo Cheng and said, “How could he possibly complete a two-star top-level mission? And what’s with this bounty!”

Elder He ignored Yang Li and said to Luo Cheng:

“Due to your contribution in exterminating the bandits in Linguan City, the sect has decided to reward you an additional 20 million taels and 20 contribution points. These rewards have already been deposited into your identity token, and you can withdraw them at any time.”

“I hope you continue to cultivate diligently and someday enhance the prestige of our Xuanyuan Sect!”

Hearing this, Luo Cheng suddenly understood.

It seems the sect places significant importance on the presence of Extreme Dao Sect disciples and the Black Qilin Army in Linguan City, which is why there is such a generous reward.

This made Luo Cheng extremely pleased.

The reward of 20 million taels alone was already a massive fortune!

Moreover, there were 20 sect contribution points!

Contribution points are extremely valuable, allowing him to avoid sect missions for a long time.

Additionally, sect contribution points have numerous uses, such as discounts for purchasing spiritual medicines, spirit pills, star-level treasures, martial arts techniques, and more.

Once contribution points reach a certain threshold, one can even directly ascend to an Inner Sect disciple!

Every disciple covets sect contribution points!

However, contribution points are notoriously hard to earn—completing one two-star task yields only two points, while completing one three-star task yields only three points!

Elder He’s words snapped everyone to attention.

Immediately, pairs of eyes turned to look at Luo Cheng—aside from shock, they were filled with jealousy!

20 million taels! 20 contribution points!

That would take completing nearly ten two-star top-level missions to earn!

Such a massive reward—something even Tongxuan Realm disciples would struggle to remain composed over!

“Impossible!”

Suddenly, a furious shout rang out. The extreme anger distorted Yang Li’s facial features as he questioned fiercely:

“Elder He! Did you even verify properly? How could Luo Cheng possibly complete a two-star top-level mission!”

“Hmm?”

Hearing this, Elder He’s eyes flashed with irritation, and he rebuked sharply:

“Yang Li, are you questioning me or doubting the decision made by the verification elders? Whether Luo Cheng committed fraud is for the verification elders to investigate—it’s not your place to point fingers here!”

Yang Li, consumed with rage, ignored all this and pointed fiercely at Luo Cheng, shouting:

“I refuse to accept this! He’s merely at the Fifth Layer of the Transcendence Realm, and he awakened a wasted martial soul! With his strength, how could he possibly complete a two-star top-level mission? This is obviously suspicious! You’ve all been fooled by him!”

“Outrageous!”

Elder He’s face darkened as he glared at Yang Li, his gaze radiating with bright intensity.

The next moment.

A fierce aura exploded from Elder He’s body.

Pfft!

With Elder He’s cultivation, just a single glance felt like a hammer blow. Yang Li staggered, spat out a mouthful of blood, and was sent flying backward!

Once his figure steadied, Yang Li finally calmed down and hurriedly bowed:

“Elder, this disciple acted impulsively and did not intend any offense.”

Elder He waved his sleeve and coldly retorted, “If you dare act so insolent again, don’t blame me for being merciless!”

Yang Li’s expression turned ashen as he looked at Luo Cheng, the cold gleam of hatred flickering in his eyes.

Today, not only had he humiliated himself in public, but he also offended an elder—all because of Luo Cheng!

“I’ll remember every bit of this debt!”

Leaving these harsh words behind, Yang Li turned to leave.

“Hold it!”

Luo Cheng reached out to stop him, a playful smile appearing at the corner of his mouth: “Did you forget something? Will you roll down the mountain on your own, or shall I help you?”

The crowd erupted in commotion, suddenly recalling this matter, and all eyes turned to Yang Li.

If he truly rolled down the mountain, how could he face anyone in the future?

“You!”

Veins bulged on Yang Li’s forehead as he gritted his teeth. “Luo Cheng! Don’t push me too far!”

A female disciple tried to mediate, “Luo Cheng, you’re both fellow sect members. Why not show a bit of mercy…?”

Luo Cheng’s eyes hardened as he looked toward her: “Why didn’t you step up earlier when he was being aggressive? Now you come out pretending to be a saint?”

The female disciple was so frightened by Luo Cheng’s glare that she retreated several steps, her face full of indignation.

Yang Li’s expression darkened. “Luo Cheng, do you truly intend to drive me to ruin?”

Ignoring Yang Li’s murderous glare, Luo Cheng sneered coldly:

“Ruin? You brought all this upon yourself! If you don’t want to roll, then take a punch from me today and I’ll let you go! Two choices—pick one!”

Yang Li’s gaze flickered.

Rolling from the Mission Hall to the mountain’s base—how could he face anyone thereafter?

That was absolutely impossible!

While Luo Cheng’s strength was evident from defeating Sha Qi, he was, after all, only at the Fifth Layer of the Transcendence Realm and had awakened a wasted martial soul!

Yang Li, on the other hand, was a genuine Sixth Layer Transcendence Realm martial artist!

Confident that taking one punch would be no issue, Yang Li strode forward and declared arrogantly:

“Fine! I’ll take your punch!”

Buzz!

With his words, Yang Li assumed his stance, and behind him appeared an illusory stream with four stars floating within it.

Luo Cheng glanced at Elder He.

Elder He stated indifferently, “This is between the two of you—it has nothing to do with me.”

Luo Cheng nodded, stepped forward toward Yang Li, and squinted slightly:

“Make sure to brace yourself!”

Yang Li sized up Luo Cheng and didn’t sense much power from him. Confidence overflowed instantly:

“No need for chatter! Strike now!”

Luo Cheng clenched his left fist and sent out a direct punch.

Boom!

A simple punch, yet the air exploded with a deafening roar, shockwaves rippling outward.

“Not good!”

Before the punch landed, the terrifying wind pressure had already made Yang Li’s scalp tingle.

But at this moment, there was no time to escape, and he could only cross his arms before his chest, channeling all his strength to defend.

Aaah!

A piercing scream echoed throughout the Mission Hall.

Yang Li was sent flying more than ten meters, slamming heavily against the Mission Hall’s wall before collapsing feebly to the ground.

His arms lay twisted at his sides, the bones utterly shattered, blood streaming from his mouth and nose!

Witnessing Yang Li’s wretched state, the observing Outer Sect disciples inhaled sharply in unison.

Yang Li wasn’t weak; among Sixth Layer Transcendence Realm martial artists, he ranked in the mid-tier. Yet he had been injured severely with just one punch, offering no resistance!

Was this still a Fifth Layer Transcendence Realm martial artist?

Elder He raised an eyebrow and cast a curious glance at Luo Cheng.

Knowing Luo Cheng had completed a two-star top-level mission, the outcome did not surprise him.

What intrigued him was Luo Cheng’s true strength—what level had it reached?

Top-tier Sixth Layer Transcendence Realm?

Or perhaps half-step Tongxuan?

Of course, all this assumed Luo Cheng had undertaken the tasks independently!

Ignoring the crowd’s gazes, Luo Cheng retrieved his disciple token and prepared to leave the Mission Hall.

Struggling to his feet, Yang Li glared at Luo Cheng with hatred and roared venomously:

“Luo Cheng! You won’t be smug for long! Senior Brother Yan Qi has already said that in half a month, during the life-and-death duel, he’ll kill you—kill you alive!”

“You should worry about yourself first. These hands of yours might end up completely crippled if you’re not careful.”

Luo Cheng sneered.

Though he had restrained his strength, that punch was enough to keep Yang Li bedridden for two months!

“You!”

Yang Li spat another mouthful of blood after hearing this.
