Chapter 27 Sword Qi
Chapter 27 Sword Qi
Du Jianyuan did not answer, but squinted at the front, already guessing the general idea in his mind.
These past few days, he had been having Qin Mo keep an eye on the talisman room, just so that he could ambush and kill Yan Jun when he left the workshop.
They had been following us closely, keeping their presence concealed, and were fully aware of their surroundings. They hadn't even noticed anyone tailing them... so there's only one explanation left.
"The guy who made the deal with Yan Jun sold him to Shen Suxian."
Du Jianyuan said softly, but his face showed little surprise.
Demonic cultivators, after all, have always only engaged in business that harms others for their own benefit.
Moreover, Yan Jun has been completely abandoned by the Yan family because of his failed breakthrough, and he is unlikely to amount to anything in the future and will not be able to cause any trouble.
As long as Shen Suxian offers a fair price, anyone would sell Yan Jun without hesitation.
Qin Mo suddenly realized something from this scene and sneered:
"It seems that Yan Jun has made quite a few enemies in the outer sect. Even Shen Suxian, who is usually calm and collected, couldn't help but want to take his life herself."
"Shen Suxian said she wanted to wipe out the entire Yan family... I guess it's a family feud."
Du Jianyuan caught the information from their conversation but didn't think much of it, simply watching quietly.
Ahead, swords flashed and axes clashed, the two men displaying a variety of techniques, with talismans flying out from time to time, scorching the surrounding trees and sending rocks flying.
"As expected of the heads of mid-grade talisman masters, they don't have much else in their storage bags, but they're throwing out stacks of mid-grade talismans."
Du Jianyuan couldn't help but click his tongue in amazement. Fortunately, Shen Suxian came over and used up a lot of Yan Jun's mid-grade talismans for him.
Even if Shen Suxian is ultimately defeated and dies, he will still help her avenge her out of consideration for their past relationship.
At this moment, the battle ahead has reached a fever pitch.
Although Shen Suxian's swordsmanship was quite exquisite, Yan Jun regained his footing after realizing what was happening, making it almost impossible for him to pose a fatal threat anymore.
Even though Shen Suxian seized the opportunity to strike several times, Yan Jun seemed unfazed. He swung his axe backhand and nearly sliced off half of her body.
Du Jianyuan stared intently, having already made his judgment.
Shen Suxian's swordsmanship was only at a minor level; she had not yet cultivated sword energy.
Yan Jun had clearly practiced a body-refining technique. Even though he had been blown to pieces, he had recovered completely after taking a healing pill.
He swung his axe with wide, sweeping strokes, seemingly showing little fear of the so-called swordsmanship, unleashing a flurry of blows that forced Shen Suxian into a desperate retreat.
"Master, do you need help?"
Qin Mo also noticed Shen Suxian's dejected state and couldn't help but ask in a low voice.
"No need for help."
Du Jianyuan squinted, having already assessed the situation between the two, and whispered his instructions:
"If Shen Suxian doesn't run away now, she's doomed... If she manages to escape, you should quietly follow her and keep an eye on her, in case she comes back."
……
"To guard against Du Jianyuan's 'Nine Palaces Suspended Evil Sword Control Technique,' I specifically studied the 'Blade-Forging Body Method,' which requires me to swallow swords and knives from time to time to temper my muscles, bones, and internal organs with the energy of metal..."
After gaining the upper hand, Yan Jun laughed maniacally, his face contorted with rage.
"You dare to try and kill me with your swordsmanship? You're asking for death!"
Now that things have come to this, how could Yan Jun not realize that he had been betrayed?
But instead of being angry, he thanked the other party!
Now, as long as he kills Shen Suxian and then pins the blame for his embezzlement on her, he can get away with everything clean and live in peace!
Not only that, even Shen Suxian's storage bag will belong to him!
Yan Jun became more and more excited as he thought about it, and the killing intent in his eyes intensified. He swept his axe across Shen Suxian's shoulder, completely breaking through her magic robe defense.
Shen Suxian was sent flying and crashed heavily into a tree trunk, letting out a muffled groan and spitting out a mouthful of blood.
"Damn it!"
Her face was filled with resentment and hatred, but she knew she couldn't kill Yan Jun today. She stopped fighting, took out a high-grade speed talisman, and slammed it hard against her chest.
In an instant, a strong gust of wind swept her away, carrying her rapidly outside.
Yan Jun was blasted away by the gale, staggering as he regained his footing. His eyes darkened as he stared ahead, and he coldly shouted:
"You think you can get away with this by running away? I'll settle the score with you later!"
Now he has used up most of the talismans in his storage bag, and he has no pills left. He can't catch up with Shen Suxian, who has a high-grade speed talisman.
Yan Jun scanned the surroundings warily, thinking that if that fellow was really lurking in the shadows, he should have already joined forces with Shen Suxian to kill him.
Since they haven't shown up yet, they probably have other plans, or they're not even here.
"These debts can be settled later!"
He gritted his teeth, realizing that his magical power was almost depleted, so he sat cross-legged and began to circulate his energy to recuperate.
Feeling the metallic cutting sensation emanating from his internal organs, Yan Jun frowned and slowly exhaled a thin wisp of blood, faintly mixed with traces of gold and silver.
Although he appeared unharmed after being ambushed, the metallic energy within his body was rampaging and overburdening his internal organs.
"I need to hurry back and find some fresh offal to eat... If I can't suppress the metallic energy within my body, it could kill me with the pain!"
Yan Jun gritted his teeth and, after understanding the state of his body, decided not to stay there any longer.
He got up to leave, but suddenly felt a jolt and instinctively leaned forward.
Three cold lights attacked simultaneously from behind, left, and right, their momentum overwhelming!
Yan Jun thought they would pass each other by, but to his surprise, three cold lights suddenly released sword energy and nailed straight into his back!
The next moment, without any hesitation, he bent over and used all his strength to force the three flying swords out of his body.
"Sword...sword energy!"
Yan Jun's expression changed drastically. His "Bladed Blade Body Forging Method" was not afraid of any magic, but he was afraid of this sword energy that could break tendons and bones and pierce internal organs!
Moreover, this sword energy also carries malevolent fire!
In an instant, the crimson-black flames, like a bone-deep infection, climbed directly up his bones and tendons, trying to reach his dantian!
"Get out here!"
Yan Jun roared, and the evil fire true essence within his body trembled violently.
The two crimson flames collided violently, forcing the foreign fire out of the wound.
However, before he could catch his breath, six more cold beams shot out from the darkness.
Yan Jun's eyes were bloodshot with rage, and he could only dodge using his movement techniques, while also guessing who else was coming to kill him.
"Du Jianyuan!!!"
"I gave you compensation, and I haven't made things difficult for you for over six months, yet you still come to kill me?!"
Yan Jun roared hysterically.
No matter how he dodged and weaved, he would still be slashed by the flying swords, leaving deep wounds that exposed the bone.
He originally thought it would take Du Jianyuan two or three years to master sword qi, but he never expected that the other party's Dao wisdom was even higher than he had imagined!
Soon, he saw the familiar figure in black on a tree.
The man had long eyebrows and handsome eyes, with deep pupils. His gaze was filled with a cold and calm killing intent. He was toying with three mid-grade Flame Blade Talismans in his hand and said with a smile:
"You jest, sir. I overheard your conversation with Lord Shen perfectly clearly..."
"Your so-called compensation is nothing more than trying to use me to collect the [Embers of Heavenly Thunder]... It's just a pity that you're not as smart as I thought."
As soon as he finished speaking, the three talismans flew straight over, transforming into three flaming blades in the wind, exuding a chilling killing intent.
Yan Jun had no way to avoid it and could only endure it.
"Bang bang bang!"
These three Flame Blade Talismans did not directly sever the flesh; instead, they exploded into clusters of flames mixed with blood on Yan Jun's body.
Du Jianyuan was not surprised. He changed the hand seals and nine flying swords simultaneously pierced through Yan Jun's dantian!
"Buzz!"
At that moment, Yan Jun's mind went blank, his eyes widened, and he slowly knelt on the ground, pleading with difficulty:
"Lord Du... Lord Du, spare me! I can... I can also let you place a restriction on me, and I can be at your mercy!"
However, a beautiful figure fell from the sky, revealing a fair leg clad in embroidered shoes, and stomped hard on his head!
Qin Mo's beautiful eyes flashed with murderous intent as she coldly said:
"Who do you think you are?! You dare to challenge me for my position?!"
This kick completely extinguished Yan Jun's life force, and the light in his pupils quickly dimmed.
The thought that he had been killed by the two cattle and sheep he had once trampled underfoot filled Yan Jun with hatred and rage, and in the end he could only utter two words with resentment:
"You...bitch..."
