C19 Zhang Wu Arrived Again
Outside the Devil Beast Mountain Range, on a broad road.
On both sides of the road were tall and green ancient trees. The lush branches and leaves of these ancient trees covered up the sunlight in the sky, causing it to become dim and dull. Only the tenacious rays of light from the few floors shone through the gaps between the branches, bringing some light to this dark path.
This path was the biggest path that led to the outside world in Heavenly Cloud City. Caravans and Demon Hunters often passed through here, so the road was quite smooth and smooth.
At this moment, a strange pedestrian appeared on this road. He was a young man who looked to be about seventeen or eighteen years old. He wore a long black robe and held an ink-black long blade in his hand. He carried a grey bag on his back and was looking back in the direction of the Heavenly Cloud City.
This young man was Xiao Jian, who had just left the Heavenly Cloud City and had gone out to train. His father had told him last night that he wouldn't come to see him today. Although he said that the weapon store would be very busy today, Xiao Jian actually knew that his father was reluctant and worried about him!
Staring deeply in the direction of Heavenly Cloud City once again, Xiao Jian's heart was firm as he suddenly walked towards Jialan City in large strides.
The Jialan City was a big city near the Heavenly Cloud City. It was one of the six duchies in the Yanhuang Empire, the main city of the Wu Lan Dukedom. Because the Heavenly Cloud City was close to the Devil Beast Mountain Range, there were a lot of merchants and travelers coming and going. It was also quite prosperous.
The Heavenly Essence Continent was a vast territory. No one knew how big the Heavenly Essence Continent was, and no one knew how many humans lived in the Heavenly Essence Continent, whether they were Devil Beast, spirit beast, or any other species.
However, there was one thing that could be confirmed. The Heavenly Essence Continent was a place where only the strong were respected, and there were numerous sects. This was a world dominated by sects and powerful warriors. Countries were much weaker, and there were even some small countries that were controlled by powerful sects and relied on them to survive.
The Heavenly Cloud City where Xiao Jian lived in was led by the Heavenly Essence Sect. The Heavenly Essence Sect had an extraordinary status in the Yanhuang Empire. Sometimes, the Monarch of the Yanhuang Empire had to watch the Sect Master of the Heavenly Essence Sect. This showed how powerful the Heavenly Essence Sect was.
At the entrance of the Heavenly Cloud City, Xiao Yuanshan was wearing a silver-grey brocade robe. He had been standing there for a long time. In fact, he had followed Xiao Jian here ever since he stepped out of the Heavenly Cloud City. It was just that he hadn't shown himself. He waited for a long time until he saw Xiao Jian's back disappear at the end of the road. He slowly walked towards the city with heavy steps. His eyes were slightly moist.
Just as Xiao Yuanshan left the city gate, there was a young man in green clothes who was about seventeen years old. He quickly ran towards the Ye family in the north of the city. Not long after that, he appeared in Ye Fei's courtyard and whispered something into Ye Fei's ear. Then, he turned around and left the courtyard. Not long after the youth left, an old man dressed in black also hurried out of Heavenly Cloud City. He was heading towards the place where Xiao Jian had disappeared.
Xiao Jian was dressed in black martial artist attire, which attracted the attention of some merchant caravans and Demon Hunters along the way. However, in this Devil Beast mountain range that was filled with Devil Beasts, some small merchant caravans did not dare to invite lone warriors of unknown origins.
This was because this sort of situation happened too many times. In the Heavenly Essence Continent, there were many young men from large families or sects who came out to temper themselves. Most of these people were eccentric and did not like to be handed over to others. Or some young martial artists who travelled alone. If they were not provoked, it would bring about a disaster of slaughter.
Therefore, the merchants would avoid lone martial artists of unknown origins as long as they could avoid them. They would not try to recruit them.
Xiao Jian walked and stopped along the way. He passed the morning without any danger. It was almost noon, and Xiao Jian's stomach protested. "Gulp! Gulp!" Xiao Jian took out some pastries and rations he had gotten from the Yunlai Wine House yesterday.
Yesterday, Xiao Jian took the time to go to the south of the city and told Zhang Shi, Qii Shaan, and Qii Yuan. He told them to follow his planned training plan and train the sixteen youths and girls well. He gave them a large amount of Prime Spirit Liquid that they had concocted during this period of time. He gave the money to Zhang Shi, saying that he would be out for a period of time. He would take full care of the restaurant. Zhang Shi, Qii Shaan, and Qii Yuan nodded in agreement.
Xiao Jian finished his food in a hurry and got up to continue his journey. At this time, Xiao Jian kept probing with his soul perception and found a powerful soul fluctuation coming from the direction of Heavenly Cloud City.
Not long after, a black figure appeared in his line of sight. It was an old man in his sixties. He was thin and had a cold face. It was obvious that he was not someone to be trifled with.
Ever since Ke Mu received the news, he put down the matter in his hands. He rushed over at full speed. He didn't expect that he would still be able to chase for a few hours. His entire body was drenched in sweat. He saw Xiao Jian leisurely resting under the trees. What?! He couldn't help but kill Xiao Jian. What this damned little bastard was thinking. However, he didn't attack immediately. He slowly walked towards Xiao Jian.
Xiao Jian looked at the old man's cold and unfriendly eyes. He had a bad feeling about the situation. It seemed like the thing he was most worried about had happened. He never thought that Ye Fei would have the ability to invite the elders of his family.
In fact, it wasn't because Ye Fei was very powerful. It was that Ke Mu had found out that the method of killing Ye Tang and Ye Ming was neat and tidy yesterday. He thought that Xiao Jian must have a profound saber technique in his hands. He only wanted to obtain a martial technique, and he could also sell a favor to Ye Fei and his mother. It seemed like old age was still spicy!
Xiao Jian looked at the old man who was getting closer and closer, and his thoughts spun quickly. However, he still couldn't think of a good way. Looking at the Yuan Qi fluctuations on the old man's body, he should be a peak Essence Warrior powerhouse. He was two levels higher than Xiao Jian. Unless he used the Explosive Fireballs, he wouldn't be able to kill the old man.
Thinking of this, Xiao Jian turned around and ran into the woods. "Shua!" He ran into the dense forest, and the cold and rotten smell hit his face. Xiao Jian could not help but feel nauseous, but he held it back because Xiao Jian could already hear the sound of the wind behind him.
When Xiao Jian had just disappeared by the roadside, Ke Mu was first stunned, then overjoyed. If this idiot continued to stay on the road, it would not be good for him to make a move openly. Since he was going to die, he couldn't blame himself for being ruthless. Ke Mu thought as he followed after Xiao Jian.
Xiao Jian was jumping nimbly on the trees like an agile ape in the forest. He gradually distanced himself from the old man. However, the old man was not an easy person to deal with. He quickly followed behind him.
As Xiao Jian ran, he sent out his soul perception to check his surroundings. That was why he was always able to find the best route to distance himself from the old man at the most critical moment.
The two of them chased after each other and gradually went deeper into the Devil Beast Mountain Range. More and more peak Third Grade Devil Beasts gradually appeared. Xiao Jian continued to run forward quickly. His original intention was to find a high grade Devil Beast to tie the old man up. Only then would he have the chance to kill the old man while he was unprepared. If he didn't have the chance, he would slip away.
This was because Xiao Jian would never show mercy to those who wanted to kill him. If he could kill them, he would kill them. Even if he couldn't, he would leave a deep impression on them!
As they went deeper and deeper, Ke Mu also felt that something was not right. However, the young man in front of him seemed to be taking a stroll in his own garden. He was always able to keep a distance from him at critical moments, so he couldn't help but feel anxious. He ran with all his might.
He pulled out the sword in his hand and circulated the elemental energy in his body. The entire sword was as transparent as green jade, and Ke Mu waved it quickly. "Swish! Swish! Swish! " Streams of green sword qi flew towards Xiao Jian.1
Xiao Jian could feel the sharp sword energies behind him. "Swoosh!" He dodged to the side and heard "Puchi!" In front of him was an ancient tree that was several meters tall. "Puchi!" It broke at the waist. Xiao Jian felt lucky. If he had been a little slower just now, he would have been as miserable as this tree!
Xiao Jian continued to run forward and suddenly realized that there were no more Devil Beasts around him. It seemed like he had arrived at the territory of the middle-grade Devil Beasts. The grades of the Devil Beasts were very strict. Low-grade Devil Beasts did not dare to step into the area of high-level Devil Beasts.
Not long after, a cliff appeared in front of them. The trees gradually became scarce, and the distance between Xiao Jian and the old man gradually shortened. Xiao Jian could already see the ferocious smile on the old man's face.
Suddenly, a loud roar came from in front of them. Then, a huge Devil Beast jumped out. A 30 meter long tiger shaped Devil Beast jumped out. Its large eyes were like lanterns, staring at Xiao Jian, and Ke Mu. Xiao Jian looked at the huge tiger and his heart trembled, "Damn! If there was such a big guy in my past life. . . People would definitely think it was a demon!"
Xiao Jian gradually distanced himself from the tiger, and so did Ke Mu. A layer of flame appeared on the tiger's body, and suddenly, the flaming tiger roared! "Roar! A tiger roar!" He kicked the tiger with both legs and threw himself at Ke Mu. Ke Mu must have realized that Ke Mu was in danger, so he watched as the flaming tiger pounced on him. He also roared and stabbed towards the flaming tiger. "Clang!" The sword and tiger claw collided, producing a metallic sound.
Kumu's sword Qi shot out one after another. "Swoosh! Swish! " The sword whistled as it slashed at the flaming tiger, leaving a trail of blood on its body. The flaming tiger was enraged, and it roared as it madly charged at Ke Mu. It once again clawed, bit, and whipped its tail! Ke Mu was also thrown into a panic. He was in a sorry state, and numerous claw marks were left on his body. His flesh and blood were charred black.
After a long fight, both sides started to fight even more crazily. As Ke Mu fought with the flaming tiger, he kept an eye on Xiao Jian. Finally, the flaming tiger's head was cut off by Ke Mu's huge sword Qi.
As the flaming tiger died, the atmosphere became heavy for the second time. Ke Mu had just used up a lot of his strength and Yuan energy. Xiao Jian felt that he had a chance of winning, so he didn't leave.
The moment the flaming tiger fell to the ground, Xiao Jian flashed and slashed at Ke Mu. The sound of the blade rubbing against each other rang out. Just as the long blade was about to hit him, Ke Mu took a step to the side and blocked the attack with his sword. Clang! Clang! Clang!" The two sides quickly clashed a few times. Both of them took a few steps back, and the sword qi on the ground swept past them. The blade qi shot into the sky!
Both of them realized that their opponents were not easy to deal with. Xiao Jian noticed that Ke Mu's Yuan energy was still quite thick, and it seemed like he still needed to use some sort of technique. After using that technique, there was not much left of his Yuan energy. It would be very dangerous to stay in the Devil Beast mountain range that was filled with Devil Beasts.
Ke Mu also realized that Xiao Jian was difficult to deal with. He was also preparing to use his strongest move. Both of them were secretly accumulating Yuan energy when suddenly, both of them shouted at the same time. A red ball and a green sword qi more than three meters long collided! Boom!" The place where the red ball and the green sword Qi met made a loud sound that shook the sky.
Xiao Jian was sent flying backwards by the sudden explosion. He was also seriously injured. "Ah!" A sharp cry came from the Devil Beast mountain range. Behind Xiao Jian was a bottomless cliff. Xiao Jian looked at the misty cliff and roared. Damn it, are you playing with me? First, let me transmigrate to this damn place and be a piece of trash! It wasn't easy for me to be alive, but now you want to kill me? F * ck! This was the first time in Xiao Jian's life that he had cursed. It could be seen how angry he was in his heart!"
Regardless of what would happen to Xiao Jian, Ke Mu had already used up a lot of energy. After clashing with Xiao Jian for a while, Ke Mu didn't have much Yuan energy left in his body. After unleashing a killing move, He had already drained all the Yuan energy in his body. He never thought that a puny Early Period of Essence Warrior Stage warrior like Xiao Jian would be able to master such a big killing move. He could only watch helplessly as the Yuan energy in his body exploded, and he died with everlasting regret. Both of his eyes were wide open!
