The middle-aged monk was none other than Su Zimo who had changed his appearance.
At this moment, there was no way he could reveal his true appearance.
If anyone were to find out that he was not dead and even saved the Emperor of Great Zhou, the Great Zhou Dynasty would definitely be in trouble!
There was a high chance that the old temple at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley could not be hidden as well.
Furthermore, in the depths of Su Zimo's heart, he did not dare to face Ji Yaoxue.
That had been the case for the past five years.
It was a complicated emotion that was indescribable.
For the past five years, Su Zimo stayed in the old temple at the bottom of the Dragon Burial Valley, isolated from the world and away from the hustle and bustle of life. He did not fight or kill, merely reciting sutras and paying respects to Buddha daily with a peaceful state of mind.
However, when he heard that Ji Yaoxue was in danger, he became nervous instantly.
The peace of the past five years was shattered instantly and his killing intent surged uncontrollably!
That was the reason why he had no intention of letting anyone off the moment he appeared. Even Perfected Lord Ming Ze was fearful of his decisiveness to kill!
The entire process of killing the two Genying Zhenjun took less than three breaths.
Although it seemed short and simple, he was the only one who knew the dangers involved.
He was truly risking his life!
As long as there was the slightest mistake, he would die here.
In terms of strength, Su Zimo was far from being a match for Genying Zhenjun.
The only thing he was stronger than Gu Suqi and the other man was his physique!
Die Yue had once said that it was easiest for demon cultivators to kill opponents above their level.
They only had a chance of winning in melee combat!
In reality, the reason why he agreed to let Si Junyu off was to numb Gu Suqi and the other man so that they would let down their guard.
However, the reason why the two Genying Zhenjun were caught off guard was not because they were inexperienced – they truly had not expected that a Jin Dan realm cultivator would have the guts to kill Genying Zhenjun!
That was equivalent to a mortal killing an immortal!
Su Zimo gripped the hilt of his sword in reverse and pulled it out slowly from his chest.
The sharp sword scraped against his bones and flesh, letting out a shuddering sound.
Su Zimo was expressionless.
An arrow of blood spurted out!
Su Zimo didn't seem to feel any pain. Without even looking, he swung his hand behind him!
Puff!
A sword cultivator from the Heavenly Piercing Sword Sect had his heart pierced by a sword and died on the spot.
The remaining four people finally reacted. They were so scared that their faces turned pale. They screamed and ran away without looking back.
Su Zimo clutched his chest with his left hand. His eyes were cold as he stomped his foot, causing the ground to shake violently. His entire body shot out like an arrow.
The speed was too fast!
Bang!
Just as a Great Xia guard ran a few steps, Su Zimo caught up with him and killed him with a single palm strike. The guard had no power to resist.
The remaining three Perfected Jin Dan did not manage to escape far before they were all killed by Su Zimo!
Si Jun Yu stood where he was, not moving an inch.
He could tell clearly that given his strength, he wouldn't be able to escape the pursuit of the middle-aged monk even if he escaped!
Before long, the middle-aged monk returned from not far away after killing the four of them and headed straight for him.
Si Jun Yu's face was pale as he forced himself to remain calm. Cupping his fists, he said, "Esteemed monk, I'm a prince of the Great Xia Dynasty. As long as you're willing to let me live, I'll be eternally grateful and will accept any conditions in exchange."
"As long as I ascend to the throne of the emperor, it won't be a problem even if the entire country helps you, esteemed monk!"
Su Zimo arrived before Si Jun Yu with an indifferent expression. Reaching out, he gripped Si Jun Yu's throat and pulled him over!
"Urgh … urgh!"
Si Jun Yu's eyes rolled back and his feet left the ground, kicking wildly. He could not speak and could only make strange sounds.
Su Zimo whispered in Si Jun Yu's ears, "Even if you have the entire country, you won't be able to match a ten-thousandth of her. If you dare to touch her, I'll kill you! "
"You … you …"
Si Jun Yu's face was purplish, as though he wanted to ask something.
Su Zimo continued, "I'll let you die with a clear understanding today. I'm Su Zimo and I'm the one who killed your brother, Jun Hao!"
Si Jun Yu's eyes widened in disbelief.
Su Zimo. That was a name that no one had mentioned for five years.
This man was not dead!
"Go down and accompany your brother."
Su Zimo's tone was calm as he exerted strength in his fingers. With a snap, he crushed Si Jun Yu's throat.
Si Jun Yu was dead.
In less than 15 minutes, two Genying Zhenjun, 20 Perfected Jin Dan and a prince of Great Xia were all buried here – none of them were spared!
No one knew what Ji Yaoxue was thinking as she frowned slightly and looked at Su Zimo with a strange gaze.
Perfected Lord Ming Ze took a deep breath of air and walked forward, bowing deeply towards Su Zimo. "I'm Perfected Lord Ming Ze of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Thank you for saving us, esteemed monk."
As a Genying Zhenjun, it was truly rare for him to be so courteous towards a Perfected Jin Dan.
"It's fine,"
Su Zimo waved it off and said indifferently, "This place is filled with danger and the Dragon Burial Valley is an ominous place. Don't come here again in the future."
"Alright, thank you for your guidance, esteemed monk," Perfected Lord Ming Ze nodded.
Right then, Ji Yaoxue walked over as well and glared at Su Zimo, asking, "May I know your Dharmic name and which sect you are from, esteemed monk?"
That was an unreasonable question.
It was more like a questioning tone and attitude.
Perfected Lord Ming Ze glanced at Ji Yaoxue and frowned slightly.
He could sense that this middle-aged monk had a mysterious background and was a little strange in his actions. Even now, he had not mentioned why he saved them and even killed everyone from the Great Xia Dynasty.
However, Ji Yaoxue seemed even stranger at that moment.
Su Zimo lowered his gaze and took down a prayer bead with four Buddha beads from his left wrist. He lowered his gaze and said calmly, "My Dharmic name is Ming Xin and I'm not from any sect."
"Ming Xin,"
Ji Yaoxue murmured softly and looked deeply at Su Zimo. "Perfected Lord Ming Ze and I are injured and can't fight anymore. Since esteemed monk said that this place is extremely dangerous, I wonder if you can send us out?"
That was an even more rude request.
Just as Perfected Lord Ming Ze was about to speak, the middle-aged monk went silent for a moment before nodding. "Alright."
Perfected Lord Ming Ze was stunned.
However, Ji Yaoxue smiled sweetly. "Thank you, esteemed monk."
For the past five years, Perfected Lord Ming Ze had been by Ji Yaoxue's side to protect her.
Ever since the death of the strongest monster incarnate in history five years ago, Perfected Lord Ming Ze had never seen such a smile on Ji Yaoxue's face before.
It was dazzling like the rosy clouds after the rain.
It was as though all the sorrow that had settled in this woman's heart for the past five years had vanished without a trace.
When he looked at Ji Yaoxue's smile, two words appeared in Su Zimo's mind.
Her smile was like a flower.
However, there was no flower in this world that could compare to the smile of this woman before him.
Su Zimo averted his gaze and moved the prayer beads even faster. He lowered his gaze and led the way, saying softly, "Let's go."
Perfected Lord Ming Ze was confused and followed behind instinctively.
Ji Yaoxue pursed her lips and her eyes dimmed.
However, she smiled before long.
No matter what, today was a happy day.
