"Luan 'er, if this continues, you won't be able to hold on for long. Just obediently hand over the King Weapon, don't waste your energy." That young man laughed loudly, his expression was indescribably happy, as if the King Weapon was already in his bag.
"Shi Xiangran, you want my King Weapon? Dream on!" The young girl's face was gloomy as she angrily shouted. Then she turned her head to look at Jianchen and loudly said, "Stinking rogue, help me deal with them and I'll write off the grudge between us."
Hearing that the young girl was actually asking for help, the young man's face immediately sank. His sharp gaze looked at Jianchen and he shouted, "This is a personal grudge between our Shi Clan and the Huang Clan. Friend, it's best if you don't interfere, or else you'll have to bear the consequences."
"This is a personal grudge between our two clans. If an outsider dares to interfere, he definitely won't live for more than three days." The middle-aged man who was fighting with the young girl in yellow also angrily shouted. This man was wearing a black robe and had a tall and sturdy build.
"Unrelated people, back off immediately, or else it will be considered as a provocation to our Shi Clan. You will forever be our Shi Clan's enemy and be hunted down by our Shi Clan." The last middle-aged man with a scar on his face also angrily shouted, threatening Jianchen.
Although they had an absolute advantage in terms of numbers, the King Weapon was about to be obtained. At this crucial moment, no one wanted any accidents to happen. Once they obtained the King Weapon in the young girl's hands, they would no longer have the slightest fear. In the Mercenary Tournament, no one would be able to threaten them. Obtaining first place would be a sure thing.
Standing on the side, Jianchen directly ignored the threats of these people. Seeing that the young girl was being beaten back by the three people, his heart was filled with hesitation. He was hesitating whether or not to help the young girl in yellow get through this calamity.
Although Jianchen felt somewhat guilty about what had happened in the past, he had also paid a heavy price for it. First, he was seriously injured by the two old men and almost lost his life. Then, he was suddenly ambushed by the young girl and shot a powerful arrow at him. Following that, she continuously shot more than twenty arrows at him. All of this had caused Jianchen's heart to be filled with anger.
A cry of pain sounded out as the young girl in yellow didn't dodge in time and her arm was cut. Now, the three people surrounded her in a triangle formation to prevent her from escaping.
Seeing this scene, Jianchen knew that the young girl in yellow couldn't hold on for much longer. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and made a decision..... and the Light Wind Sword in his hand....
"How dare you obstruct our Shi family's business. You must be tired of living." The black-robed middle-aged man shouted.
"Little brat, it's not too late for you to back out." The one who spoke was the young man in white robes. He was attacking the young girl in yellow while shouting at Jianchen. His face was gloomy, clearly he was truly angry.
Jianchen ignored him and continued to stab the middle-aged man in black with his Light Wind Sword.
The middle-aged man in black's weapon was a machete. He brandished the machete to block Jianchen's attacks, but his speed wasn't as fast as Jianchen's. After exchanging two blows, his attack speed couldn't keep up with Jianchen's footsteps. Just as he was about to use up all of his energy, Jianchen's Light Wind Sword pierced through his throat like a bolt of lightning. The sharp tip of the sword pierced through the back of his throat, causing a drop of blood to drip down.
The middle-aged man in black's eyes were wide open. He couldn't believe that the young man in front of him was so strong. His speed was so fast that he didn't even have time to react.
"Third Brother!"
Seeing the black-robed middle-aged man die, the other man with a scar on his face, who was fighting with the yellow-clothed woman, was so angry that his eyes were about to split open. His eyes were instantly filled with blood.
The face of the young man in his thirties also changed greatly. He didn't think that Jianchen, who was younger than him, would be able to deal with an Earth Saint Master so quickly. This kind of strength caused the young man to feel a chill in his heart.
"Friend, why do you want to incur the enmity of our Shi clan? Have you forgotten how this woman tried to deal with you? Why don't we work together? Once we deal with her, our Shi clan will definitely reward you greatly." The young man in his thirties said to Jianchen.
"Don't believe their nonsense. The Shi clan has always been despicable and shameless. They always go back on their words. Moreover, you have already killed a member of the Shi clan. The Shi clan will definitely not let you go." The young girl in yellow was afraid that Jianchen would turn around and help them, so she hurriedly said.
Jianchen's face was indifferent. His expression didn't change in the slightest as if he didn't hear what the two were saying. He slowly pulled out the Light Wind Sword from the neck of the black-clothed man and then continued to rush towards the other middle-aged man who was fighting with the young girl in yellow. The Light Wind Sword turned into a series of afterimages as it pierced towards the middle-aged man.
"You're courting death!" Seeing this, the young man flew into a rage. His face was filled with killing intent. When had he ever invited someone with such kind words? He never thought that the other party would actually ignore him. This made him feel like he had lost face. The anger in his heart grew even stronger and finally turned into killing intent.
Jianchen's Light Wind Sword turned into a series of afterimages that enveloped the last middle-aged man.
The afterimages were so dense that it was hard for the naked eye to see which one was real and which one was fake. Even if one could catch a glimpse of the real sword, it would only be for a moment. In the next moment, the sword would once again be hidden in the afterimages.
The middle-aged man's face became extremely serious. He decisively closed his eyes and used his Spiritual Sense to determine the trajectory of the sword. Then, the sword in his hand suddenly surged with Saint Qi as it slashed out.
Jian Chen's Light Wind Sword continued to stab out, one strike after another, each strike faster than the one before. The frequency of his stab was so fast that it left behind a hazy afterimage. Many times, it would seem as if Jian Chen had only stabbed out once, but in reality, he had already stabbed out multiple times. Every strike looked like a single strike, but in reality, he had already stabbed out multiple times.
Facing such a fast attack, the middle-aged man simply couldn't block it. In just a few exchanges, his body was filled with multiple sword wounds.
"The opponent's strength is too strong. Young master Shi, quickly activate the barrier!" The middle-aged man was forced back by Jian Chen. His voice was filled with some panic. A faint, bloody mark had already appeared on his neck. He had almost been slit by Jian Chen.
The young man was immediately alarmed when he heard the middle-aged man's cries for help. He glanced at the battle between Jian Chen and the middle-aged man in a hurry, and his face immediately became rather ugly when he saw how the middle-aged man was forced back by Jian Chen and could only defend.
At the same time, the yellow-clothed woman who was fighting with the youth also turned her head to look at Jianchen. Her beautiful eyes were wide open and her face was filled with disbelief. Her heart was filled with shock.
"How is this possible? How did his strength suddenly become so strong? He was clearly not so strong just now. Furthermore, he was shot by me earlier and was clearly injured." The yellow-clothed woman's face was filled with doubt. Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind and she thought, "Could it be that when he fought with me earlier, he was deliberately hiding his strength?"
"Little brat, you've ruined our Shi family's plans. Our Shi family will definitely not let you off. Even if you run to the ends of the earth, our Shi family's experts will definitely tear you to pieces." The youth gnashed his teeth as he spoke. Every word seemed to come from the gaps between his teeth. Just as he finished speaking, a transparent barrier suddenly appeared and enveloped his entire body.
The young man gave up on attacking the girl. Instead, he attacked Jian Chen with the middle-aged man against the barrier. His three-meter-long sword was like a venomous snake. The tip of the spear constantly trembled as it stabbed towards Jian Chen's heart, leaving behind blurs.
The Light Wind Sword in Jianchen's hand suddenly emitted a powerful and sharp Sword Qi, blocking the spear. His sword followed the momentum of the spear and ruthlessly stabbed into the barrier surrounding the youth.
The barrier slightly trembled, but quickly returned to normal. Although the barrier looked weak, its defense was extremely strong. Jianchen was unable to break through it.
The youth did not have the slightest fear as he coldly stared at Jianchen and coldly said, "Little brat, your life won't be long." After saying that, the youth used his spear like a whip and smashed it towards Jianchen.
Jianchen did not say anything as he dodged the spear and turned around to attack the middle-aged man. His Light Wind Sword turned into a silver light as it pierced towards the middle-aged man's throat.
The middle-aged man had always been afraid of Jianchen's swift sword, so he had always been on guard against Jianchen. Now that he saw Jianchen coming towards him, he immediately used his greatsword to block his throat and at the same time quickly retreated into the barrier. Although being forced into such a sorry state by a 20 year old brat was a very shameful thing, but compared to his own life, face was worth nothing.
Just as Jianchen's Light Wind Sword was about to pierce through the middle-aged man's greatsword, the tip of the Light Wind Sword suddenly sank and pierced the middle-aged man's heart. The Sword Qi that was contained within the Light Wind Sword immediately shot out and crushed the middle-aged man's heart.
The middle-aged man's body suddenly stiffened as blood continuously flowed out from his mouth. His eyes stared at Jianchen in disbelief before his eyes widened and he slowly fell to the ground. He died with his eyes wide open.
"You … you …" The face of the youth who was protected by the barrier was ashen. He was so angry that he was speechless. His eyes were filled with hatred as he stared at Jianchen. The hatred in his heart towards Jianchen had already reached a point of no return.
Originally, their mission had been progressing very smoothly. Just when they were about to complete the mission and obtain the Ruler Armament, Jian Chen had suddenly joined in at this crucial moment, completely turning the situation around. The mission that they were about to complete was instantly destroyed, and they had even lost two Earth Saint Masters.
"Shi Xiangran, I want to see just how you'll take the Ruler Weapon from me now." The yellow-clothed girl was completely relieved. Her beautiful eyes were filled with hatred and anger as she stared at the young man in the barrier. Just a few days ago, a few of the talented uncles and elders of the Huang family who had followed her into this place had died in the hands of the Shi family in order to cover her escape.
Thinking up to this point, the hatred in the yellow-clothed girl's heart grew even stronger. She slowly took out the longbow on her back and aimed at Shi Xiangran before pulling the bowstring. She clearly knew that with her current strength, she was unable to break through the barrier.
Shi Xiangran's face was incomparably gloomy. "Good, good, good. I originally didn't want to use this secret treasure, but you forced me to." As he spoke, Shi Xiangran took out a fist sized piece of metal from his spatial ring. The piece of metal was dark green and had ancient patterns on it.
