Wei Shu had long since guessed that this was a plot. Behind a plot, there would definitely be a plot as well. He had already guessed the goal of the nine great disciples led by Guan Xiaolong as he said mockingly yet firmly, "The Court Of Sword will definitely not sit by and watch. Junior apprentice-brother Yan is innocent!"
"Brother Wei, why do you have to do this? Could it be that you intend to face us all alone?" Guan Xiaolong smiled coldly smugly as he glanced at Wen Ziqing from the corner of his eye. He had not expected to be able to invite such powerful reinforcements this time. He thought that he had grasped the nature of the Heaven's favoured son of Dragon Elephant Mountain, and that he would be able to make use of him in the future.
Wei Shu ignored him, his gaze sweeping across every single face before he used his fingers as a sword, lightly sliding them across the sword that hovered by his side as he murmured softly to himself, "Ling Qiu, oh Ling Qiu, this is the first time you have been stained with the blood of a fellow practitioner, and I believe that it will not be the last."
Every word was like a silent sharp weapon, piercing the eardrums of all who heard it, causing a chill to run down their spines as they fully felt the other party's determination to fight to the bitter end.
"Brother Wei …" Wen Ziqing hesitated for a moment, but just as he was about to continue speaking, Ling Qiu had already gone straight for his head, his speed as fast as lightning, his momentum like raging waves.
Sword-wind immediately surged within the snowy forest like a tsunami on a calm sea.
Faced with this sudden attack without any warning, Wen Ziqing was enraged as he angrily said, "Wei Shiping, as the nephew of Senior Wei Ran, you are untainted by righteousness. Could it be that you don't even speak reason?"
"Reason?" A vicious light shone in Wei Ran's eyes, "What reason do you have? Biting the hand that feeds you! "
The sounds of battle instantly rang out.
Several kilometres away, Xiao Pojun pointed his spear furiously at Xu Guang, "You clearly know that Yan Li is innocent. Why did you stop me?"
Xu Guang said indifferently, "It was not me. It was the Dao Court."
"Why?" Xiao Pojun's suppressed killing intent was on the verge of erupting. In the time it took for him to spit out these three words, he was already only two steps away from Xu Guang. As long as he took another step, Dragon's Fury would be able to pierce through Xu Guang's throat. If it was in the past, there would have been a result long ago.
"You clearly understand," Xu Guang said.
Xiao Pojun pursed his lips and said in a cruel tone, "You should know that no one can stop me from doing what I want to do!"
Xu Guang said, "No one can stop you from doing what you want to do."
"Is that not the case?" Xiao Pojun asked.
"Of course! But before that, you'll have to step over my dead body. "Xu Guang withdrew his aura and slowly closed his eyes.
Xiao Pojun was once again stunned. For the first time in his life, he felt the bitterness of life. Between advancing and retreating contained great knowledge.
After a long time, Xu Guang only heard a "Dang" sound. It was the sound of the dragon's fury landing on the ground. He thought that his rebellious Shidi had finally been moved by his words and actions and was willing to compromise. He opened his eyes with joy, but his smile froze in an instant. He cried out involuntarily, "Shidi, your finger!"
Xiao Pojun's spear-wielding hand was bleeding profusely, and his thumb had been completely severed. He didn't make a sound, and his expression didn't change at all.
"Hand, hand …" Xu Guang's face was deathly pale. "It's over, it's over, it's over … Martial Granduncle won't forgive me … Hurry and reattach it, Shidi …" He trembled as he ran over, picked up the severed finger, and tried to reattach it for Xiao Pojun, but the latter sent him flying with a kick.
Xiao Pojun grinned viciously as he stared at Xu Guang. "This is the first time, and it will also be the last time. Next time, I will kill you without hesitation!" With that, he abruptly turned around and strode away.
In the end, Wei Shu was no longer able to withstand the attacks of seven or eight cultivators of the same level as him. He fell into the river of ice and lay there for a long time. Wen Ziqing stopped the others. Guan Xiaolong said, "Brother Wen, if he continues to hide in the water, are we going to keep watching him? Why don't we go down and finish him off?"
Wen Ziqing said coldly, "It's a friendly spar, there's no need to take someone's life. What nonsense are you talking about!"
"Ah, yes, yes, yes, I forgot. I was so engrossed in the fight that I shouldn't have killed him …" Guan Xiaolong laughed, then laughed and shouted towards the bottom of the river, "Brother Wei, come up quickly, it's really cold down there, I'm afraid you'll freeze, and we won't be able to explain it to the teachers of the Court Of Sword. It's just a friendly spar, come up, I'll boil a pot of wine, and we'll still be good friends. "
For a long time, no one spoke.
Wen Ziqing gradually felt that something was wrong, so he threw out a silver needle and broke through the ice. The icy water was forced down, and the scene at the bottom of the river became clear. Everyone looked closely, only to see the Autumn Ridge Sword standing upright under the water, exuding sword intent, but there was no sign of Wei Shu.
"We've been tricked!" Guan Xiaolong's expression changed.
Everyone's expressions changed, and they immediately looked towards Wen Ziqing.
Wen Ziqing withdrew his silver needle, and narrowed his eyes, "So it was all an illusion from the beginning, he had already planned to escape."
Everyone thought about it, but couldn't say anything.
Guan Xiaolong hatefully said, "So the Imperial Sword Peak doesn't only have 19 levels of the Imperial Sword Technique, but also 36 levels of the Deceitful Technique!"
…
Thunder Mountain, Five Elements Valley.
Five Elements Valley was one of the best prisons in the world, surrounded by five sacred mountains corresponding to the five elements, forming a valley. It had always been used to imprison the most vicious demons. Since ancient times, no one who was locked in Five Elements Valley had ever escaped, so Five Elements Valley was also called Decapitation Valley.
Five-colored thunderbolts formed a chain, firmly locking up Yan Li.
Five elements were abundant in Five Elements Valley, but people who were locked up were cut off from the five elements, so they couldn't absorb a drop of star power. The Five Elements Great Formation constantly extracted Yan Li's true qi, so in just three days and nights, he was already a lamp without oil. Not only was his Source Sea exhausted, but even his qi and blood had declined to the lowest point, making him look like a withered dog's tail grass.
There was no food, no water, no panacea.
This Five Elements Valley didn't inflict any pain on the prisoners, but it was more unbearable than torture. As his true qi ran out, a bigger test for Yan Li came. Perhaps it should be said that the meaning of the Deadly Calamity Sword Song couldn't continue, and the Black Blood Curse went out of control.
"You must be hungry."
An untimely voice suddenly rang out.
A basin of rancid water was poured on his head. It was so stinky that no one knew how many days it had been exposed to the sun. The food inside was so rancid that people would vomit if they smelled it.
Yan Li couldn't help but retch, and his stomach contracted violently. It was like the cramping pain he felt when he ate tree roots when he was hungry. He raised his eyes with difficulty, and saw a disciple of the Five Elements Court putting down the bucket and sneering at him.
"Son of a bitch, how dare you kill Senior Brother Xiang Xiu!" He walked closer with a hideous smile, and kicked Yan Li's abdomen. "Now that you've become a prisoner, it's karma! Liu Tang told me to take good care of you! " He raised his hand, intending to slap Yan Li. His action was ruthless, not only because he wanted to take revenge, but also because he felt an inexplicable pleasure.
"Look! The bright and dazzling new star is under my feet! How delightful! "
Yan Li raised his head. In the depths of his soul, the power of resentment leaked out because of his surging emotions, and his eyes turned into a monstrous evil spirit.
The heart of the Five Elements Court's disciple trembled, and his hand that was about to slap Yan Li stopped. Suddenly, his eyes brightened, and he saw the Universe Ring on Yan Li's finger. He thought that since he didn't have long to live, it would be a waste if he didn't take it. So, he took it off and played with it in his hand for a while. He planned to find an elder with a high cultivation level to break Yan Li's seal. He couldn't stop his greed. He didn't care about the dirt, and he started to search Yan Li's body. In the end, he searched him from head to toe, and only found an old ring hanging on his chest.
"Pooh! You even hung this thing? What a bumpkin!" He curled his lips. However, he still took the ring off from Yan Li's chest, and played with it in his hand. He walked out, planning to find a master to appraise it in the market. "What's your name?" Yan Li's hoarse and dry voice came from behind him. He turned his head, and said with a hideous smile, "Do you want to take revenge on me? My surname is Yang, and my name is An. "
"You're also called Yang An?" The corners of Yan Li's mouth twitched, and he slowly closed his eyes. "I'll remember you."
