Mundane Saint-Chapter 45 – The Black Forest Gang's destruction

The sword flashed, shadows flickered!
The minions who rushed forward hadn't even reacted before they fell to the ground with screams of agony.
Qin Yiyao's sword was too fast; they could only feel a chill sweep across their necks before their bodies went limp, collapsing straight down.

Bright red blood stained the mountain path of Black Forest Mountain.
She moved gracefully, like a phantom, her sword never ceasing. With each swing, a life was taken. In just a few breaths, more than a dozen lifeless bodies lay at her feet.
Yet her light blue and white dress remained spotless.
Qin Yiyao coldly flicked her long sword, then walked forward slowly and elegantly.
"What... what kind of sorcery is this!?"
The deputy leader's eyes widened in horror. The closer Qin Yiyao got, the more he retreated.
These gang members were cultivators, even if they were weak, there were still five or six at the fifth level of Foundation Establishment! Yet now they were killed by that young girl?
She was only at the second level of Foundation Establishment!
Could she be a prodigy from some powerful faction? But the Black Forest Gang had never provoked such a person, so why were they suddenly facing such a disaster?
Qin Yiyao couldn't be bothered with his shock and confusion. Killing some ants wasn't worth boasting about.
"If you wish to block my path, then pay with your life."
She spoke coldly, and as soon as the words fell, her figure suddenly burst forward, her Cold Moon Sword transforming into a shooting star, darting swiftly!
The deputy leader roared, swinging his massive hammer in an attempt to block!
But there was no sound of collision as expected.
The Cold Moon Sword sliced through the giant hammer as if cutting through mud.
Seizing the opportunity, she exerted more force with her slender arm, the sword light slashing down!
"How... how could this be... impossible—"
A mocking smile appeared on Qin Yiyao's lips. Behind her, the headless body wobbled and fell, the words unsaid forever silenced.
In the Black Forest Gang, only the leader might pose a challenge to her.
It was said that Huang Su was at the tenth level of Core Formation, and he might have already broken through. But regardless, Qin Yiyao was determined to take his life today.
She walked up the mountain path step by step, and over at the stone fortress, as many gang members fled back, Huang Su received countless bad news and finally couldn't sit still!
Inside the main hall of the stone fortress.
Huang Su listened to his subordinates' s with a dark face, then slammed his fist on the table, shattering it. The deafening sound echoed in the empty hall.
He roared, "Useless! You're all a bunch of good-for-nothings!"
"Boss! That girl's skills are truly formidable! Our people suffered seventy to eighty percent casualties!" a subordinate said with a mournful face.
"Being slaughtered by a girl at the second level of Foundation Establishment, you're less useful than pigs!"
Huang Su bellowed, and as if unable to contain his anger, he kicked out, sending the trembling subordinate crashing through the wall, dead with a tilt of his head.
The room fell into a deathly silence.
The remaining subordinates were silent, not daring to utter a word.
Huang Su stood up, his face twisted with rage, pointing at the group and cursing, "What are you standing around for? Go out and gather information immediately. I want that damned girl captured alive, break her limbs, and sell her to a high-class brothel for all men to enjoy!"
The subordinates shuddered, and at this moment, no one dared to defy him, nor did they have the strength to resist, so they all took their orders and left.
After they left, the ferocity on Huang Su's face slightly subsided. He took a deep breath and muttered, "What kind of background does this girl have to kill three hundred of my elite members?"
He wondered if his subordinates had provoked someone they shouldn't have, otherwise, why would a young girl attack the Black Forest Gang out of nowhere?
But soon, this thought was dismissed.
It wasn't that he couldn't figure it out, but because outside the stone fortress, the sounds of chaos and slaughter were already echoing... his gang members were being killed left and right.
Then, the main door of the hall was slammed open by two flying corpses!
Qin Yiyao walked in slowly, her sword gleaming with a chilling light, blood dripping along the blade. Her gaze was steady, fixed on the middle-aged, burly man sitting at the head of the hall.
"Are you the leader of the Black Forest Gang, Huang Su?"
She saw his fierce appearance, with a full beard and a murderous aura, knowing he was a bloodthirsty and ruthless person.
Huang Su looked at Qin Yiyao's charming and beautiful face, feeling a twinge of desire.
He had never seen such a beauty before; compared to this little beauty, his own women were like withered flowers.
But he had never encountered someone at the second level of Foundation Establishment who could disregard his numerous gang members!
This girl didn't seem simple, but the Black Forest Gang had stood outside Cloud Spirit City for over a decade; how could they be intimidated by a young girl?
"Yes, I am the leader."
He arrogantly lifted his chin, his face full of hostility.
Upon hearing this, Qin Yiyao smirked, a mocking curve on her lips, "I'll give you a chance, fight me, or let me take your head!"
But Huang Su didn't move, his whole body tensed, leaning forward slightly.
"May I ask which faction you belong to, and why you attack my Black Forest Gang?"
Qin Yiyao sneered, reaching into her chest to pull out the Purple Gold Spirit Pendant.
"Your lackeys seem to enjoy bullying me." Her tone was mocking, but her eyes remained cold as a blade.
"You, you are..."
Huang Su's pupils suddenly contracted, "So you're a woman?"
Seeing the pendant, Huang Su remembered that Hong Ba had died while pursuing a mortal boy, only to be intercepted and killed halfway!
This girl wasn't an ordinary mortal without cultivation, but a cultivator at the second level of Foundation Establishment!
Moreover, she could even fight across levels!
"Prepare to die."
Qin Yiyao didn't want to waste more words with this guy.
With that, she swung her Cold Moon Sword, the icy sword energy shooting straight for Huang Su's throat!
Huang Su was already on guard for this move, immediately leaping aside to avoid her attack, but the chair he sat on shattered with a crash.
"Heh, you do have some skill, no wonder you're so arrogant."
"Unfortunately, you're too inexperienced!"
He growled, powerful spiritual energy surging from his dantian into his right palm, then thrusting out with a clap of thunder, aiming directly at Qin Yiyao's vital points!
A killing move right from the start!
But Qin Yiyao didn't retreat; instead, she advanced, her Cold Moon Sword stabbing repeatedly, executing the first move of the Moon Frost Sword Technique!
Moon Kill!
A sharp sword energy shot towards Huang Su!
"Hmph, a petty trick!" Huang Su sneered.
But when the two forces collided, and the explosive shockwave swept through, Huang Su's expression finally froze!
The true power contained in that sword move made him feel a hint of danger.
Huang Su retreated a few steps, his palm crisscrossed with bloody marks, glaringly red!
"Damn it, how is this girl so powerful?"
The opponent was just a young girl, yet she managed to wound him?
Qin Yiyao's lips curled into a cold smile, her eyes filled with killing intent.
She continued her assault, and Huang Su, driven by anger, fought back fiercely in the stone fortress hall, the clash of sword and fist creating chaos, and in the blink of an eye, they had exchanged over a dozen moves!
Qin Yiyao didn't intend to drag this out.
She was, after all, only at the second level of Foundation Establishment, with a weak foundation, a natural disadvantage. In the end, Huang Su would have more strength left.
Huang Su thought the same.
"Don't push me too far!"
He shouted angrily, and with a double palm strike, he forced Qin Yiyao back ten steps. Then, as if making a decision, he flipped his wrist, revealing an earth-colored pill between his fingers, and without hesitation, swallowed it!
Instantly, his muscles swelled, bones crackling.
His skin stretched tight, his entire body becoming more robust, his facial features twisting grotesquely!
Huang Su roared madly, white smoke rising from his body, clearly having taken some kind of potential-enhancing pill, a secret technique that came at a great cost, used only as a last resort.
Qin Yiyao glanced at him, then looked away.
This guy was forced to reveal his trump card!
"Forcing me to this point, your death won't be in vain. Die!"
Huang Su's eyes turned blood-red, his body exuding a dense killing intent, like a bloodthirsty beast. His movements were as swift as lightning, his strength greatly increased, a punch so powerful it made the air whimper.
Qin Yiyao snorted coldly, not dodging or evading.
"Since you seek death, I'll grant it!"
With that, she swung her long sword to meet him.
The second move of the Moon Frost Sword Technique was unleashed!
In an instant, fist and sword clashed, the entire hall filled with terrifying pressure. Who would have thought that a girl at the second level of Foundation Establishment, who had little cultivation just days ago, could push the Black Forest Gang, the tyrant of the south of the city, to such a state?
"Boom—"
A dull thud sounded as the sword shadow broke through the fist force, aiming straight for Huang Su's neck, the cold blade only an inch away, his pupils contracting violently.
"No!" he roared, using all his strength to raise his arm in defense!
Squelch—
The blade struck, blood splattering.
Qin Yiyao panted heavily, watching Huang Su clutch his neck, eyes full of unwillingness as he fell.
Dead with eyes open.
Yet her upper body remained unstained by even a drop of blood, only slightly disheveled, the hem of her dress faintly marked with blood.
She glanced coldly at the corpse on the ground, unfazed, as if it were just another mundane task.
The "Saint Yao Emperor" had spread her dominion across half the realm, and she had long been the unflappable iron-blooded empress. Even reborn, that wouldn't change.
Then, she walked out of the hall.
From this day forth, the Black Forest Gang was no more. Qin Yiyao deliberately spared some gang members, who would spread exaggerated tales of the events, providing gossip for those with idle curiosity.
Everyone would surely think it was the work of a prodigy from a powerful faction.
And they would never suspect that she actually lived south of Cloud Spirit City, mingling among the ordinary people.
