In the Violet Snow Garden, the atmosphere around the stone tablet was stagnant.
Groups of experts who had come from afar were now staring at the young man beside the stone tablet. Broken limbs littered the ground around the pavilion, and many people were still struggling and wailing on the ground. Shallow areas were filled with blood, and from afar, it looked like a sea of red.
Bai Luying felt that she had miscalculated. If she'd agreed to work with those people and besiege Lu Sheng because she wanted to test him and was unwilling to admit defeat, she was now thoroughly regretting her decision.
Just by looking at him, she could feel a sharp pain on her skin, as if she was being pricked by a knife. Based on this, she knew that the other party's strength was far beyond her imagination.
Bai Luying glanced at the crowd from the corner of her eye. She couldn't recognize the few collaborators who had been there before. She couldn't even tell if they were still there, let alone find them.
"Young Master Lu, you win." She sighed helplessly. Seeing that Lu Sheng's sword was already half raised, ready to strike at any moment, she finally conceded.
Lu Sheng was about to move his sword when he heard Bai Luying's words. He was surprised. It seemed like it was not a coincidence that they met, but they had taken the initiative to retreat. In truth, he did not want to kill them. If there were other experts hidden among the crowd, then he would not be able to cover up the fact that he had killed the Alliance Sect's disciples.
Lu Sheng's gaze swept across the crowd, passing over the so-called Jianghu experts of the local factions.
"Since no one has any objections, why are you still standing here?" He began to chase them away.
The crowd was silent for a moment, then someone called out.
"There are so many of us, so many experts, and even Senior Shen and Chief Zhu are here. Do we have to be afraid of him?"
"That's right, we have so many experts here. Even if he was strong, he must be exhausted after killing so many of us! This is our chance! The Huang Clan Manor's Sky Blue Iron Spear is most suitable for a frontal attack. Why don't we ask Manor Lord Huang to test him? "
"Wu Laosan, you're such a smooth talker. Why don't you go yourself?" Manor Lord Huang was clearly displeased.
Just by looking at the more than twenty pairs of bloody hands and feet on the ground, one could tell how ferocious this young man was.
Even Old Senior Shen did not say a word, and the Divine Dragon Sect Leader was also waiting to see what would happen. Naturally, they would not stand out.
The rest of the experts did not utter a word. The ones who were truly clamoring were the weaker underworld gangs that were not afraid of death.
As the wind grew stronger, more and more people gathered around. At first, there were only a hundred people, but later, the crowd grew thicker.
From where Lu Sheng stood, he could only see heads everywhere. The faces of the people he saw were either fierce or filled with ulterior motives.
Lu Sheng looked in Shen Jianwang's direction. The old man had a solemn expression on his face and didn't say a word, as if he was meditating. Seeing his nose twitch and eyelids twitch, he knew that he must have noticed that an expert was looking at him. But even so, he remained silent.
Lu Sheng found it funny. This small world was extremely weak. At its peak, it was only at the Sky Origin Stage like this old man. It was far weaker than Bai Luying and the others, let alone him.
This group of people surrounded him like a group of chicks surrounding an adult. They had no idea that he could kill more than 90% of the people present with just one sword strike.
"Zhao Chengxuan?!!" Suddenly, a shout came from the crowd.
Lu Sheng was stunned at first. Then, he remembered that this body of his was the so-called Zhao Chengxuan. Only then did he look in the direction of the voice.
At the back of the crowd, a group of armored soldiers surrounded three people, and they were all looking in their direction.
The three people were Zhao Chengye, Zhao Chengfeng, and Second Uncle Zhong Yuangui.
This Zhong Yuangui was the sworn brother of the three siblings' father. His Dismounting Heavy Spear had reached the acme of perfection, and his great skill seemed clumsy. He was quite famous both in the military and in the Jianghu.
"Chengxuan, what are you doing over there? Come here! "Zhong Yuangui's expression changed as he shouted.
He was his big brother's son after all. If something happened to him, he wouldn't be able to answer to his big brother.
Lu Sheng smiled and didn't reply. Holding his sword, he leaned against the stone tablet and waited for the time to come.
Zhong Yuangui and the other two were confused when he didn't respond. They thought they got the wrong person. There was no sound.
The situation was at a stalemate.
Shen Jianwang and Zhu Side of the Divine Dragon Gang started to help the injured. Soon, they moved all the disabled people around the stone tablet. All that was left was puddles of blood and the dark red ground.
The sky started to turn gray. It was almost dawn.
The Divine Weapon couldn't be active in the morning. This meant that it was about to come out. As the time approached, Lu Sheng became more alert. Not to guard against people, but to place the Divine Weapon to escape.
Clang!
Suddenly, a crisp sound came from the stone tablet.
Lu Sheng abruptly opened his eyes and reached out to grab the stone tablet.
"Boom!"
Before he could grab it, the stone tablet exploded with a loud bang, breaking into pieces. A blazing red light shot out from the center and soared into the sky, attempting to fly towards the west.
"Trying to run?!" Lu Sheng jumped up and shot out like an arrow.
Bai Luying and a few others also shot into the sky and chased after him.
Their movements were too fast. Even Shen Jianwang and Zhu Side only had time to pull out their weapons. After running two steps, they stared dumbfoundedly at the few people chasing after the Divine Weapon and disappearing into the distance.
"This … this … this …!!"
Zhu Side lowered his head and looked at the stone tablet. He felt that he had lived for decades in vain. This group of people who had been blasted out without a sound were all so strong.
"The Martial World really is unpredictable …" Shen Jianwang walked over and put his sword back on his back. He shook his head helplessly and turned to leave.
When the group of Jianghu experts saw the scene just now, that a person could actually leap like a bird, and at such a fast speed, they all felt their hearts jump.
Zhao Chengye swallowed and looked at his big brother and second uncle, who were also stunned.
"That's definitely not Third Brother. He just looks like him."
"I can't believe there's someone who looks so much like Third Brother," Zhao Chengfeng said in shock.
"Let's retreat. Since the Divine Weapon is gone, the city won't be in chaos. We've achieved our goal, "Zhong Yuangui said in a low voice.
"Yes."
…
The red light pierced through half the sky, breaking through the clouds, and flew into the distance.
Lu Sheng followed closely behind. Invisible True Qi formed stairs under his feet for him to step on. Every time he stepped on the stairs, he would be able to move forward a lot.
When he got closer, he could see clearly that the red light was wrapping a palm-length vermilion spiked dart. The dart was inlaid with an emerald green bead, and the surroundings were engraved with curved runes that gave off an indirect aura.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Lu, why don't we work together? We'll go forward and wait. You can chase him from behind," Bai Luying said reluctantly. "Don't worry, the Divine Weapon is yours. We just want to get a good rating."
"F * ck off!" Lu Sheng couldn't be bothered with them. He knew what they were thinking. What kind of cooperation was this? It was all for the chance to get a share of the pie.
"Senior Apprentice Brother Lu, aren't you being too unreasonable?" Bai Luying frowned.
"Whoosh!"
Lu Sheng suddenly turned around and slashed at the people behind him with his sword.
"Whoosh whoosh whoosh whoosh!!!"
White waves formed in the air, forming the shape of a sword and slamming into the people.
The people were caught off guard. Black membrane appeared on their bodies to block the sword aura, but it was also blocked by the huge force. They couldn't catch up anymore.
Bai Luying was the target of special attention.
She dodged the sword Qi while still in a state of shock. She managed to stabilize her dizzy body with great difficulty. She looked at the rapidly shrinking Lu Sheng from afar.
"Damn it!!"
"If it weren't for the fact that the alliance isn't allowed to fight each other, I'd tear him apart today!!" a hot-tempered Spirit Bind Sect disciple said irritably.
"Tear him apart? Just you?! "Bai Lu glared at him angrily.
"What? You have a problem with that? "The person raised the knife in his hand.
"Idiot." Bai Luying didn't even look at him. She turned and flew toward the ground. Relying on True Qi to temporarily borrow power consumed a lot of energy. It couldn't last long.
"You!!?" The person was about to chase after her.
"Pu!!"
In an instant, a bloody wound appeared on his chest, and blood sprayed everywhere. In the blink of an eye, his face turned pale.
The others were all shocked. They had no idea when Lu Sheng had made his move.
…
In a dark green valley in the distance.
"Dang."
Lu Sheng grabbed the Crimson Dragon Spear with one hand. He ignored the red light on its surface and dragged it down to the ground.
"Mission accomplished." With his other hand, he took out a piece of silk cloth from his bosom and flicked it forward.
With a snap, the silk cloth exploded and turned into a large amount of white light that enveloped him.
In the blink of an eye, Lu Sheng was back in the stone house he was in. He was holding a short red dart in his hand.
"That's it?" Zhang Shilong sensed movement and rushed into the house. He immediately saw the red dart in Lu Sheng's hand.
"I didn't fail." Lu Sheng gently released his hand. His True Qi had already wrapped around the dart, preventing it from escaping. It floated in the air.
Zhang Shilong was amazed.
"This is the first time I've seen someone snatch a mission target on their second trip to the outside world. There's no need to look anymore. Your evaluation this time is definitely the highest. Even in the High Sect, not many people can compare to you. "
"Next, we'll rush at full speed." Lu Sheng smiled.
"Of course. If everything goes well, we'll reach the prefecture city of Moling in ten days. "Zhang Shilong was also in a good mood.
The two quickly packed their things and set off. Zhang Shilong had already caught two rabbit spirits. The gray rabbits were half the height of a man. They were skinned and roasted into jerky. They were smeared with salt and became the most convenient rations for the two.
Zhang Shilong thought it was Lu Sheng's good luck that allowed him to complete the mission so quickly. Only Lu Sheng knew that the Crimson Divine Dragon Target's speed had already reached the level of Six Vein. Even if he was at the level of Bind, he wouldn't be able to catch this thing if he only relied on his black membrane and didn't train to increase his speed.
Only he, with the speed and strength of a peak Seven-Vein level cultivator, could easily catch up to the Divine Weapon and bring it back.
This Divine Weapon was actually just a normal dart embedded with shards of Divine Weapons and Devil Blades. But in the outside world, it was considered a Divine Weapon.
