An Liunian's Five Techniques Sword had gathered the power of the five elements. Its might had even exceeded Chu Xiu's expectations.
Human puppets were just puppets, after all. Gongshu Yuan had said that they could retain the strength they had when they were alive, but he had only been referring to their basic strength.
However, a warrior's combat strength wasn't just related to strength. It also had to do with their willpower, combat experience, and other things that human puppets lacked.
Therefore, in its battle with An Liunian, the human puppet had been suppressed in almost every aspect. In the end, it had retreated and shouted in a hoarse voice, "An Liunian! How dare the Guanzhong torture room! I'll remember this. We'll settle this score in the future! "
After speaking, the Human Puppet turned and fled. Chu Xiu, who was behind it, cursed inwardly. Was Gongshu Yuan's head frozen from refining puppets? To think that he had made such a low-level mistake.
The Guanzhong torture room kept a low profile in the Pugilistic World, but An Liunian was even more so.
While most people knew that the Guanzhong torture room had a department called the Criminal Investigations Department, they didn't even know about Fang Sha and Si Ming, who were the most frequent visitors, let alone An Liunian, who spent most of his time in seclusion.
Therefore, there were many suspicious points in Gongshu Yuan's words through the human puppet.
Fortunately, An Liunian didn't sense anything amiss.
Actually, when Guan Siyu had just inherited the position of Hall Master, An Liunian had been rather famous in the Pugilistic World. After all, most people had believed that An Liunian would inherit the position of Hall Master of the Guanzhong torture room and not Guan Siyu. Therefore, An Liunian's reputation had actually been greater than Guan Siyu's.
In addition, An Liunian hadn't stepped into the Pugilistic World for many years, so he had forgotten that people in the Pugilistic World were very forgetful. Apart from some of the factions that had been close to the Guanzhong torture room in the past, most people had already forgotten about him.
Looking at Chu Xiu, An Liunian asked coldly, "Where is the relic?"
Chu Xiu replied, "It's just up ahead. Great Leader, please follow me."
An Liunian grunted coldly and said, "Don't even think about playing any tricks! Don't think that you're on equal footing with us just because you're Guan Siyu's trusted aide and defeated Fang Sha. In the past, when Chu Kuangge was the Hall Master, I led the Punishment Division to slaughter in the Jianghu. At that time, not to mention a junior like you, even Guan Siyu was still a lowly constable of the Jianghu in the Guanzhong torture room! "
Chu Xiu lowered his head and nodded in acknowledgment. He acted as if he wanted to retort but was holding back for the time being. An Liunian did not find anything wrong with this.
It would be strange if Chu Xiu didn't react at all and directly admitted defeat.
However, it didn't matter. He didn't need Chu Xiu to be convinced. He just needed Chu Xiu to bring him to the ruins.
There must be a lot of good stuff in the ruins for a Martial Dao master of the Hidden Devil Clan to come after him.
Chu Xiu led An Liunian to a remote valley, which made him frown slightly.
The spiritual qi in Xiaofan Heaven was abundant, but there were strong and weak ones as well. Most of the ruins were in places with abundant spiritual qi.
However, the spiritual qi in this valley was very thin. Someone had actually built a sect here?
Chu Xiu led the way into the valley. An Liunian didn't think too much when he saw Chu Xiu enter first and directly stepped in.
However, at that moment, Chu Xiu shouted, "Oh no! Someone else got here first! "
An Liunian immediately walked over and asked, "What happened?"
Chu Xiu pointed to the black corpses lying on the ground in a circle in front of the valley entrance and said, "These are the warriors from the Hidden Devil Clan who were in charge of guarding the ruins. Now that they're all dead here, it's likely that someone beat me to it when I was being hunted down!"
An Liunian looked at Chu Xiu suspiciously. "Is there such a coincidence? Are you trying to trick me? There are no ruins here at all. "
Chu Xiu hurriedly said, "How would I dare lie to you, Chief? These corpses are still fresh, so they were obviously just killed. "
An Liunian was still a little doubtful when he heard that. Chu Xiu didn't have a good reputation in the Guanzhong torture room, so he had always suspected that there were ruins in another place. This place was a place that Chu Xiu had been to previously, but he had already ransacked it. He had also killed the people and lied to An Liunian that someone had beaten him to it.
An Liunian was indeed a warrior from the Guanzhong Torture Hall. Although he had long since ceased to be a constable of the jianghu, his professionalism was still very strong. In a short moment, he had been able to deduce so many things in his mind.
Therefore, with his suspicions, An Liunian was prepared to personally check the corpses to see if they had really died at the hands of Chu Xiu.
However, just as An Liunian walked towards those corpses, those corpses suddenly leapt to their feet. Threads were connected in their hands, and the light of the array formation flowed into them. It was like an inescapable net that enveloped An Liunian!
It was only then that An Liunian noticed that these corpses weren't dead at all. They were repulsive puppets draped in human skin!
"Scram!"
An Liunian unsheathed his golden sword and unleashed the sharpness of Yu Jin's aura to the extreme. Those puppets that were only at the Unity of Heaven and Man realm were directly sent flying. However, the threads didn't move at all as they continued to attack An Liunian!
Gongshu Yuan leaped down from the valley and laughed loudly. "Don't waste your effort. It's useless. This is a God Binding Net that I weaved using the silk of countless strange insects such as the Snow Domain Ice Silkworm, the North Sea Water Silkworm, and the Southern Border Gold Silkworm. Even divine weapons can't cut it."
However, An Liunian's attention wasn't on Gongshu Yuan. Instead, it was on something behind him!
The instant An Liunian had been ambushed, he had thought of something. Since this was a trap, what role did Chu Xiu, who had lured him here, play?
Therefore, at this moment, An Liunian immediately turned around. The four swords behind him were all unsheathed, and the Power of the Five Elements erupted. An Liunian stabbed out with his sword, and the five-colored sword aura drew in the power of the heavens and the earth. Although he was alone, he had set up an extremely powerful sword formation!
Behind him, Chu Xiu didn't use trump cards like the Hungry Ghost Dao Incarnation or the Seven Demon Blades.
These things consumed too much energy. Furthermore, Gongshu Yuan had said that it was best to capture him alive. Therefore, Chu Xiu immediately formed hand seals. Buddhist light shone from his body as he executed the Great Sun Shifting Technique. Vairocana's illusory figure shrouded the sun and moon within the boundless Buddhist light. Sun Shifting Steals the Heavens!
The palm of Vairocana Vairocana collided with the Five Elemental Sword Formation. An extremely powerful shockwave suddenly erupted, forcing An Liunian to take a few steps back. A look of shock appeared in his eyes.
He had miscalculated! This was Chu Xiu's true strength!
An Liunian had only seen Chu Xiu attack once, which was against Fang Sha.
However, Fang Sha hadn't used his trump card, and Chu Xiu hadn't used his full strength either. The reason why Chu Xiu had been able to defeat Fang Sha so easily was because Fang Sha had underestimated him. Secondly, Chu Xiu's grasp of the battle rhythm was too outstanding. He wasn't inferior to Martial Dao masters like them.
Therefore, An Liunian could only tell that Chu Xiu was pretty strong during that battle. However, he didn't think that Chu Xiu was strong enough to threaten him.
Now that the Great Sun Changing Technique had been unleashed, he could feel its power. Other things aside, Chu Xiu's explosive power alone was already comparable to his.
If he had known how strong Chu Xiu was, he wouldn't have been fooled right from the beginning.
Although the demonic grandmaster who was chasing after Chu Xiu had decent strength, he wasn't considered strong. With Chu Xiu's strength, let alone being chased by him, he could even kill him!
However, it was too late now. All An Liunian wanted to do was to escape the encirclement.
At that moment, Gongshu Yuan yelled in distress, "Be careful when you attack! Don't damage my God Binding Net! "
As soon as he said that, he saw An Liunian performing a sword seal. In an instant, the other four swords followed closely behind the golden sword. As he slashed with his sword, a sharp golden sword gleam slashed out, tearing everything apart. The God Binding Net was instantly slashed apart!
The power of the five elements reinforced and restrained each other. After the other four swords reinforced and restrained each other, they transferred their power to the golden sword, allowing the sharpness of the net to be unleashed to the extreme.
The God Binding Net could only defend against divine weapons in theory. However, the might unleashed by a divine weapon coupled with a martialist's martial arts technique was not certain.
When he saw this, Gongshu Yuan's heart ached so much that he trembled. If he had known this would happen, he wouldn't have helped.
The golden sword was sharp, while the water sword was soft.
A transparent ripple erupted from the water sword in An Liunian's hand. As he slashed with his sword, the air before him fluctuated. An Liunian's figure also moved according to the rhythm of the ripple. He was like a swimming fish as he rapidly fled out of the valley.
However, at this moment, he was shocked to discover that even though he was only less than 300 meters away from the exit of the valley and could escape in a few breaths' time, it was as if he was walking on the spot. The exit was still so far away.
When he looked around, there was no longer any valley. It was pitch-black all around him. The Yellow Springs River flowed on the ground, and countless evil spirits roared at him. In the sky, there was even a seductive demonic woman dancing around, stirring up his desire.
"Shatter!"
The five swords circled around An Liunian's body, eventually turning into a scorching red color. The five swords slashed out in unison, and the scorching sword intent burned away all the evil spirits and filth, revealing Mister Lu's figure before him.
"Phaseless Demon Sect!"
An Liunian's eyes immediately widened.
He didn't recognize Gongshu Yuan, but the Phaseless Demon Sect's Sky Demon Formless Technique was still very famous.
Turning his head towards Chu Xiu, An Liunian gritted his teeth and said, "Chu Xiu! So you're actually colluding with demons. Damn it! You really deserve to die! "
At this moment, what An Liunian was thinking about was not his own safety, but the future of the Guanzhong Torture Room.
A fellow who was colluding with demons had infiltrated the Guanzhong Torture Room and even become one of the four torturers, Guan Siyu's trusted aide.
With such a fellow with ill intentions around, An Liunian didn't dare to imagine what the future of the Guanzhong Torture Room would be like.
