"It's not hard to guess?" Hidden Sword was confused. "Do you have a way to know where the Dragon-Slaying Saber is going to slay the dragon?"
When Xue Zhuyong and Mo Zhizhi heard this, they both looked at Lu Qingshan, waiting for his next explanation.
"The Dragon Monster King's strength has reached the peak of the Fourth Stage. The Dragon-Slaying Saber is no match for him. With such a great disparity in combat strength, the Dragon-Slaying Saber must rely on external forces to slay the dragon." Lu Qingshan analyzed word by word. "Formations are naturally the first choice of external forces. However, this matter is too important. If the Dragon-Slaying Saber only has formations, it's not safe enough.
After all, since it's clear that they want to use Jiao Yan to lure the Dragon Monster King into a killing trap, the Dragon Monster King will not be unprepared for such an open scheme. Therefore, the Dragon-Slaying Saber must prepare a killing move outside the formation. "
"However, what kind of killing move can the Dragon-Slaying Saber rely on to slay the dragon?" Lu Qingshan asked, "If the killing move to slay the Dragon Monster King can be so easily prepared, the Three Great Sects of the Dragon Island would not have been defeated so miserably. There would not be such a saying among practitioners that it's as easy as ascending to heaven."
"That's true." Hidden Sword nodded, but was still confused. "What does this have to do with the location of their final battle?"
"Coincidentally, isn't there a natural place on the Dragon Island that can be used against high-level practitioners?" Lu Qingshan revealed the answer.
"You mean," Hidden Sword suddenly realized and exclaimed, "the Spirit Abyss! They must want to use the power of the Spirit Abyss to slay the Dragon Monster King. "
Lu Qingshan nodded.
This was not difficult to guess. If he were to put himself in their shoes, he would definitely use the Spirit Abyss as his trump card to slay the Dragon Monster King.
Therefore, Hidden Sword was able to guess the answer just by listening to him.
The Spirit Abyss, which had never been heard of for thousands of years, was the most mysterious and deadly place on Flood Dragon Island.
Lu Qingshan didn't believe that the Dragonslaying Saber wouldn't have thought of making use of the Lingyuan after so many years of planning.
"Then I will immediately head to the Spirit Abyss," Xue Zhuyong nodded, agreeing with Lu Qingshan's words.
"I'll go with you." Lu Qingshan said, "Mo Yan and I can be considered acquaintances. Otherwise, if we don't have an acquaintance, Xue Family's Master would have come knocking on our door like this. The Dragon Slaughtering Saber wouldn't easily trust a stranger on this kind of important matter."
"That's reasonable." Xue Zhuyong glanced at Lu Qingshan. "Then come with me."
"I'll go with you," Hidden Sword volunteered without hesitation.
"Me too," Qin Yitian said softly.
Lu Qingshan glanced at the two of them. After pondering for a moment, he made his decision. "The two of you will depart with us. Madam Mo will have to trouble you to wait in the city for news."
Mo Zhizhi was silent for a long time before she finally nodded and whispered to Xue Zhuyong, "Come back alive with Yan 'er."
Xue Zhuyong nodded silently.
Lu Qingshan's reason for making this arrangement was simple.
He knew Hidden Sword's character very well. There was no way he could stop her.
Besides, Hidden Sword was obviously of an extraordinary background. Lu Qingshan didn't believe that she didn't have a few life-saving treasures given to her by her elders. Hence, he wasn't too worried about Hidden Sword's safety.
As for Qin Yitian, if he guessed correctly, she had a lot to do with the source of the dragon breath in the Dragon Pool. Moreover, her aura was ethereal and he couldn't tell what level of cultivation she was at. She was such a mysterious woman that he didn't have to worry about her own safety.
As for Mo Zhizhi, she was different.
First of all, Mo Zhizhi's cultivation wasn't high. It would be too dangerous for her to rush to the battlefield.
More importantly, she had a close relationship with Xue Zhuyong and Mo Yan. If anything happened to her, Xue Zhuyong would be affected. She was an extremely unstable factor.
Under such circumstances, in order to eliminate any unstable factors and prevent any melodramatic plots, Lu Qingshan still allowed Mo Zhizhi to stay in Jiao Dragon City even though he knew that she was very anxious.
Mo Zhizhi understood this as well. Hence, even though she wanted to go to the Spirit Abyss with them, she still followed Lu Qingshan's instructions and stayed in the city.
"Let's go." Lu Qingshan turned around and called for Hidden Sword and Qin Yitian.
When he turned around and saw their expressions, Lu Qingshan was speechless.
Even though it was such a dangerous task, Hidden Sword's face was filled with excitement, and his eyes were shining.
Qin Yitian, on the other hand, was smiling.
"What are you smiling about?" Lu Qingshan knew Hidden Sword's character very well and wasn't too surprised. However, he was puzzled by Qin Yitian's reaction.
Qin Yitian's eyes sparkled. "I just think that you're … not bad, Mr. Lu."
"Huh?" Lu Qingshan didn't understand her answer.
.....
Sea God Sect.
The Flood Dragon Demon Monarch led the horde of flood dragon beasts over.
The low-level cultivators of the Sea Divinity Sect didn't realize that their sect's Golden Core cultivators had already been wiped out. They were still doing their own things as usual. When they saw the flood dragon Monster King arrive in such a grand manner, they were immediately frightened out of their wits.
The low-level cultivator in charge of the formation first opened the formation with trembling hands and let the flood dragon clan into the sect. Then, he immediately sent a spiritual message to inform the superior cultivators of the sect. However, he was horrified to find that all the spiritual messages he sent out were like stones sinking into the sea.
The Jiao Dragon Daemon King glanced at the low-level cultivators coldly. Without stopping, its huge body flew directly to the core of the Sea God Sect.
In front of the sect's main hall.
The traces of the fierce battle from before still remained in the empty square.
Black smoke swirled around the Jiao Dragon Daemon King and turned into a handsome young man in black.
This was the Jiao Dragon Daemon King's human form.
The Jiao Dragon Daemon King's eyes were filled with fury.
There were puddles of dried blood on the ground in front of him.
It was Jiao Yan's blood.
"Human!" The Jiao Dragon Daemon King gritted his teeth.
Crack.
An extremely strange sound rang out.
The Jiao Dragon Daemon King looked in the direction of the sound.
A formation disk was shining. Then, a light screen appeared on the disk.
Jiao Yan, who was covered in blood, was bound by golden ropes. He was on the verge of death, and his huge eyes were very dim. When he saw his father through the light screen, his eyes flashed with a faint light. "Father …"
The Jiao Dragon Daemon King didn't reply. He was waiting for something.
A moment later, the One-Armed Swordmaster appeared on the light screen.
"Jiao Dragon Daemon King, if you still want your only son's life …" The Swordmaster paused, his eyes filled with battle intent. "Then let's fight."
This was an open and aboveboard scheme.
Even if the Jiao Dragon Daemon King knew that the Swordmaster had set up a trap to lure him into a trap and kill him, he would definitely attend this Hongmen Banquet given how much Jiao Yan valued him and how confident he was in his own strength.
As for the final outcome, it would depend on whose fist was harder.
The Jiao Dragon Daemon King's eyes were filled with contempt and disdain. He said sinisterly, "Back then, I could cut off your arm. Today, I can also cut off your corpse."
He had already recognized the Swordmaster as the Sect Master of the Blood Blade Sect on the human side during the battle with the Jiao Dragons hundreds of years ago.
"Then I'll wait for you here!" The Swordmaster said sternly.
Sizzle!
In the next instant, the light screen shattered into specks of spiritual light and disappeared.
The Jiao Dragon Daemon King waved his left hand and smashed the formation disk into powder. He swept his brows and roared, "Follow me and wipe out the human race!"
