#391 - Borrowing a knife to kill
The night was as dark as ink, and Wuli Pavilion cast mottled shadows under the dim moonlight.
Zou Cifeng was furious, as if consumed by a raging fire, chasing after the blue light, and rushed to Wuli Pavilion with all his might.
With just one glance, he spotted the Soul Jade in Li Xueqing's hand, emitting a ghostly blue light.
The light was like a sharp dagger, piercing straight into his heart, igniting all the anger and unwillingness in his heart.
Zou Cifeng was like a completely enraged lion, his fur standing on end, exuding a chilling aura, rushing towards Li Xueqing with lightning speed.
His eyes turned blood red with anger, like two burning fireballs, locked tightly on Li Xueqing, and an invisible killing intent seemed to permeate his body, making the surrounding air freeze instantly, becoming cold and biting.
He didn't know if Li Xueqing was the Wind Demon.
But at least now, his ancestral Soul Jade was in Li Xueqing's hands.
This proved that this person was definitely involved!
So he couldn't care less, the most important thing was to take back the Soul Jade first.
"Thief!"
"Return the Soul Jade to me!"
His voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, sounding like thunder, exploding in the silent night sky, making people's eardrums ache, startling the栖息birds in the distance, flapping their wings and disappearing into the darkness.
Li Xueqing was startled, her originally clear eyes instantly turned frosty, and her gaze shot towards Zou Cifeng like a knife.
She was both surprised and angry.
She was surprised by the sudden appearance of this old man without any warning, demanding the Soul Jade as soon as he came, with an extremely rude attitude; she was angry that the other party was so unreasonable, as if the Soul Jade in her hand should have been his.
"You old man are so strange, this Soul Jade was thrown to me by someone else, why should I give it to you?"
Her voice was clear and firm, responding to Zou Cifeng's roar without fear.
In Li Xueqing's heart, she had already begun to secretly sense that things were not good.
In his heart, he had already determined that Li Xueqing was either the Wind Demon or was in cahoots with the Wind Demon, both were shameless people coveting his family heirloom.
He didn't waste any more words, while still in the air, his right hand was already raised high, and the majestic internal force gathered in his palm, as if condensing into a towering mountain, and the surrounding air was distorted by this powerful force.
"Swimming Dragon Seizes Claw!"
His arm was like a nimble dragon, carrying a majestic aura from afar, and shot towards Li Xueqing.
Its momentum was fierce, as if it not only wanted to奪走the Soul Jade, but also wanted to grind Li Xueqing and the Soul Jade together.
Li Xueqing was slightly taken aback when she saw this move.
Then she suddenly remembered a battle she had with someone in Dongzhou when she traveled the world back then:
"It's you?!"
"The Zou Cifeng with only a reputation!"
At this moment, Li Xueqing finally remembered Zou Cifeng through his moves.
She smiled contemptuously, that smile was full of sarcasm, her toes lightly touched the ground, her posture was as light as a dancing swallow, and she quickly retreated backwards, her clothes fluttering, as if a fairy had descended into the world.
At the same time, her hands were as fast as lightning, and with a sudden wave, several tiny poisonous needles shot out from her fingertips.
The poisonous needles were like shooting stars, shining with a ghostly cold light under the moonlight, shooting towards Zou Cifeng's throat, chest and other vital parts, cutting through the silent night sky.
Zou Cifeng snorted coldly, and more anger flashed in his eyes:
"You really know me!"
"And you still say you're not a wicked thief who stole my Zou family's treasures?!"
As he said that, he waved his left sleeve forcefully, and a strong current of air surged out from his sleeve, as if it were a howling gale, causing the surrounding grass and trees to rustle.
This air current instantly swept away all the poisonous needles, and the poisonous needles lost their direction in mid-air, and fell powerlessly to the ground, making a slight sound.
Li Xueqing had already retreated quickly, she sneered:
"You're just a defeated opponent!"
"What qualifications do you have to be arrogant in front of me?"
While she spoke sarcastically, her fingers moved slightly.
Invisible threads seemed to connect her fingertips to the poisonous needles that had been shot down in the distance, causing the needles to twitch slightly on the ground, as if ready to attack again at any time.
When Zou Cifeng heard this, he only thought that the "defeated opponent" that Li Xueqing said referred to his defeat in the qinggong competition with the Wind Demon.
This made Zou Cifeng even more furious!
"It really is you, you thief!"
While Zou Cifeng roared, he activated the "Mountain Cracking Palm", and the majestic internal force gathered in his palm, as if condensing into a towering mountain, the palm wind howled, causing the surrounding dust to fly.
He raised his palm and slapped it down towards Li Xueqing on the ground from the air.
The powerful internal force surged out, as if a mountain was pressing down on Li Xueqing, and the ground trembled slightly.
Li Xueqing, however, showed a disdainful expression.
She saw the internal force in her body suddenly激荡out, as if forming several feet and猛地轰to the ground.
Borrowing the reaction force from the ground, Li Xueqing's figure actually moved flexibly and quickly on the ground like a centipede.
She was actually using her famous qinggong, "Earth Tunneling Centipede Immortal".
When Zou Cifeng's mountain-like palm force slammed down, Li Xueqing had already swam away.
"Boom!!!!!"
The powerful palm strike hit empty air, striking the Five Mile Pavilion directly.
The pavilion was instantly shattered into pieces by the terrifying force, collapsing with a roar, stirring up a cloud of dust that spread under the moonlight.
Zou Ci Feng, relying on his profound internal force and incomparably powerful moves, struck down from a high position, each move seeming to contain the power to split mountains and crack rocks, appearing fierce and terrifying.
He tried to force Li Xueqing to reveal a flaw, hoping to seize the Soul Jade.
Li Xueqing, on the other hand, moved swiftly and unpredictably, seemingly not in a hurry to confront Zou Ci Feng head-on. Instead, she seemed to be toying with him, her figure flashing in the moonlight, making her elusive.
Just as the two were locked in an intense battle, a figure swiftly flew over.
Yan You, looking anxious, hurriedly arrived at the scene.
Seeing Zou Ci Feng and Li Xueqing engaged in a heated battle, he secretly cursed in his heart.
He had meticulously planned to have Liang Jin and the others kill each other, so he could reap the benefits, but Zou Ci Feng had gotten into a fight with this white-clad young master, completely disrupting his plan.
"Elder Zou, hold your hand!"
Yan You shouted loudly as he used his movement technique, rushing towards the two. His voice echoed in the night sky, carrying a hint of anxiety and helplessness.
However, Zou Ci Feng was in the heat of battle, his heart filled with rage, causing him to completely lose his reason and ignore Yan You's advice.
His eyes were only focused on Li Xueqing and the Soul Jade in her hand, his attacks becoming increasingly frantic.
Hearing Yan You's address to Zou Ci Feng, Li Xueqing secretly pondered, assuming they were in cahoots, and anger surged in her heart.
The most ⊥ new ⊥ small ⊥ say ⊥ in ⊥ six ⊥ 9 ⊥ ⊥ book ⊥ ⊥ bar ⊥ ⊥ first ⊥ hair!
Her hand suddenly grabbed.
The hidden poison needles in the grass on the ground, as if pulled by thin threads, suddenly attacked Yan You, carrying a deadly threat.
Helpless, Yan You had no choice but to use his exquisite movement technique to dodge Li Xueqing's attack.
While dodging, he anxiously shouted:
"Elder Zou, we have other important matters to attend to, we can't delay here!"
"Young Master, there seems to be a misunderstanding between us, please stop!"
However, Zou Ci Feng was already blinded by rage and didn't listen to his shouts, his attacks becoming even more violent.
Li Xueqing would not easily give up either.
She didn't trust Yan You and Zou Ci Feng at all, especially Zou Ci Feng, who had already been defeated by her.
The best way to stop was to defeat them both and then talk about other things.
At this moment.
Not far away, a figure had quietly landed in the nearby dense forest.
It was Yu Linglong, hiding in the darkness, quietly witnessing this chaotic scene.
The next moment, a figure also landed beside Yu Linglong, it was Liang Jin who had returned.
"Xiong Ba, you're really something."
"You really got these guys to start fighting each other first."
Yu Linglong praised Liang Jin using the method of sound transmission.
The three fighting on the scene were all true experts. If she spoke directly, they would definitely hear her.
Only through the method of sound transmission could she avoid being discovered by them.
Liang Jin's expression was calm.
You can still laugh now, but you probably won't be able to laugh in a while.
Sure enough.
After looking at it for a few moments, Yu Linglong couldn't help but frown:
"Strange, how come the martial arts used by that white-clad young master are so similar to Elder Li's?"
"No! This is Elder Li's martial arts!"
"This white-clad young master must be Elder Li in disguise!"
Liang Jin immediately put on a surprised and incredulous expression.
He then immediately apologized:
"How could this be… Miss, this disciple messed up."
"This disciple never would have thought that Elder Li would disguise herself as a man and come to the Bi Bo City auction."
"This is terrible, causing Elder Li to fight with someone for no reason."
He had long known that this white-clad young master was Li Xueqing, intending to trick her on purpose.
However, he naturally couldn't say these words to Yu Linglong.
Yu Linglong didn't blame him, but said:
"This matter can't be blamed on you, even I didn't know that Elder Li had disguised herself, and I don't know what her intentions are."
"I will explain all of this to Elder Li later."
"But now, we can't let anything happen to Elder Li."
"No matter what, Elder Li is also an elder of my Dragon Transformation Sect."
Yu Linglong was filled with affection for every elder in the Dragon Transformation Sect.
After all, she had grown up under the tutelage of these elders since she was a child, and every day these elders sacrificed their own cultivation to pass on their skills to Yu Linglong, allowing Yu Linglong to become a Second Grade martial artist.
Otherwise, there wouldn't only be a group of Third Grade elders in the entire Dragon Transformation Sect, and perhaps many Second Grade elders would have been born.
Therefore, Yu Linglong also didn't want to see anything happen to Li Xueqing.
Liang Jin comforted her:
"Miss, don't worry, with Elder Li's martial arts, dealing with Zou Ci Feng, that defeated opponent, is simply easy."
"Now, I just don't know what abilities that fake Yan You has."
"If that fake Yan You is really powerful, the Miss shouldn't take action personally, as this may expose the Miss's whereabouts."
"Please prepare to leave this place and go find the Divine Dragon to return to Dragon Transformation Island."
"This disciple will take care of the matters here. At the critical moment, this disciple is willing to help Elder Li resolve the crisis!"
