The Fifth-Order cultivator wasn't the only one who suffered such a fate. The unfamiliar faces were the same, especially the Seventh-Order cultivator. His situation was especially serious. Small mushrooms suddenly grew out of his seven orifices and he quickly wiped them away. Looking down, he saw that his hands were covered in blood. He quickly reacted and shouted, "Cheap slut, how dare you poison me!"
As he spoke, he leaped up and charged towards Hua Ci.
* Hong … *
Lu Ye stepped off the eagle's back and rushed towards Hua Ci and Ruan Lingyu. He unsheathed his long saber and slashed horizontally.
A fiery red light cut through the air, creating a shower of sparks as the huge force behind it forced the Seventh-Order master back. Lu Ye was also forced back two steps, but he quickly stabilized himself, stamped his foot on the floor of the bamboo house, and rushed out.
Two silhouettes, one advancing and one retreating, clanking sounds could be heard as the two Spirit Weapons collided with each other.
Lu Ye had never fought with a Seventh-Order cultivator since he started cultivating, so he immediately felt the pressure. However, he was now much stronger than he was during the battle at Golden Light Peak. Although his cultivation was still at the Fifth-Order, his killing skills had greatly improved under the tempering of his Fourth Senior Brother.
The Mountain Coiling Saber in his hand seemed to have a life of its own, slashing out rays of light. In just a few breaths of time, Lu Ye found an opportunity to slash the Seventh-Order cultivator's chest and abdomen. The Seventh-Order cultivator's Spirit Qi protection was broken, and a foot-long wound appeared on his chest and abdomen.
The Seventh-Order cultivator staggered back with a look of shock on his face. He obviously didn't expect to be injured by a Fifth-Order cultivator.
He didn't have time to think as Lu Ye rushed forward again.
After a few more breaths of time, another wound appeared on the Seventh-Order cultivator's body.
The shock in his eyes had already turned into horror because he found that this Fifth-Order Origin Realm cultivator who had appeared out of nowhere was even faster and stronger than himself. What frightened him even more was that the saber in his opponent's hand was extremely lethal, and once he was struck, he would definitely be injured.
Double images appeared in front of his eyes and his ears began to buzz. He didn't know what poison he had been poisoned with, but his Spirit Qi was rapidly draining away, accompanied by colorful mushrooms growing out of his orifices. These mushrooms were rapidly devouring his Spirit Qi.
He had to end the battle quickly and capture that lowly servant girl to cure the poison!
With that thought, he made a prompt decision. He reached into his storage bag and took out a spirit weapon, shouting, "Go!"
The Spirit Artifact immediately turned into a stream of light and shot towards Lu Ye at lightning speed.
A Seventh Order cultivator could already cultivate the Way of Artifact Manipulation.
When the stream of light appeared, Lu Ye's hair stood on end. A huge sense of crisis enveloped him. His eyes quickly fixed on the stream of light. Time seemed to slow down at this moment. He saw the angle and direction of the stream of light, and saw the spirit weapon wrapped in the stream of light.
Tempering his body in the Dragon Pond and the scales he obtained from the Dragon Pond not only strengthened his physique, but also his eyesight. In simple terms, his eyesight would be able to catch things faster, and at the same time, his reaction would also be faster.
They couldn't block it! At this moment, it was too late to swing his saber. The speed of the flowing light was too fast.
When Lu Ye urged his Spirit Energy, a Spirit Inscription appeared on his chest. His Spirit Energy continued to pour into it.
With a bang, the Spirit Energy exploded. Lu Ye grunted. He tasted something sweet in his throat and his mouth was full of the taste of rust. His feet were firmly rooted to the ground, but his whole body was pushed by a powerful force. His feet plowed two deep marks on the ground.
"Yi Ye!" Ruan Lingyu, who was standing next to Hua Ci, exclaimed. Her face turned pale.
At the same time, Hua Ci gritted her teeth and changed her hand seal.
* Pu pu pu … *
A series of muffled sounds rang out. The small mushrooms that grew out of the Seventh Order cultivator's orifices exploded one by one. Spores spread all over his face. The cultivator immediately screamed. His whole face seemed to have been poured with strong acid. It made a ripping sound as his flesh and blood became a mess.
Lu Ye raised his saber and cut off the continuous stream of light on his chest. His figure rushed out, and under the horrified gaze of the Seventh Order cultivator, he stabbed with his saber.
The Mountain Coiling Saber enhanced with Sharpness Spirit Inscriptions pierced through the cultivator's heart and came out from his back.
Lu Ye pulled out the saber and blood gushed out.
"Ah!" Another scream rang out. Lu Ye turned his head and saw that the Sixth Order cultivator was being held in Xiao Hui's beak. He didn't know how he provoked Xiao Hui, or if Xiao Hui took the initiative to attack him.
The huge beak closed, and the cultivator was split in half. Blood and internal organs poured out.
At the same time, Kong Niu also finished off his opponent. In terms of strength, Kong Niu might not be a match for Hua Ci. After all, he had just reached the Fifth Order. However, these outsiders were all unknowingly poisoned by Hua Ci's poison. When Hua Ci detonated the hidden poison, their strength decreased.
In the middle of a life-and-death battle, small mushrooms suddenly grew out of one's orifices. Anyone would be frightened, especially when those small mushrooms were rapidly absorbing one's Spirit Qi to grow …
The hasty battle ended. Lu Ye shook off the blood on his long saber and returned it to its sheath. He rubbed his stuffy chest. Although the defensive spirit inscriptions had blocked the damage of the spiritual weapon, there was no way to alleviate the force of the collision.
"Who is it?" Lu Ye frowned.
He had just arrived here and hadn't realized what had happened. Hua Ci suddenly attacked, followed by Ruan Lingyu's shout, and the battle broke out.
"A few stray dogs from the Inner Circle," Hua Ci explained faintly. She looked at Lu Ye with concern, "Are you okay?"
Lu Ye shook his head.
"Come in and talk," Hua Ci walked into the bamboo house.
Lu Ye raised his foot and followed.
Ruan Lingyu stayed outside and cleaned up the battlefield with Kong Niu and the others.
After entering the house, Hua Ci poured him a glass of water. Lu Ye saw a trace of relief in her tired face. Obviously, she hadn't been doing well during this time.
Lu Ye took a sip of water, "Are we being targeted?"
Although Hua Ci didn't say much, Lu Ye could vaguely guess what was going on. He had been worried about this since he was in Ying Mountain.
Hua Ci was quite famous in the nearby market. Many injured cultivators would come to her for treatment. Although they could earn some cultivation resources by doing this, if they were targeted by a powerful cultivator from the Myriad Devil Ridge one day, the people of the Scattered Wandering Club would not be able to resist.
However, this was the outermost circle of the battlefield. Hua Ci herself was a Fifth-Order cultivator, and the Scattered Wanderers Club had more or less enough power to protect themselves.
However, life couldn't always be so smooth.
In the end, Hua Ci was targeted. At first, it was because a Seventh-Order cultivator was injured. He came to Hua Ci for treatment because of her reputation. The other party was from the Myriad Demon Ridge camp. Hua Ci naturally didn't want to, but because her fists weren't as big as his, she could only treat him.
After the Seventh-Order cultivator's injury was healed, he refused to leave and made an even more excessive request. He wanted Hua Ci to earn Spirit Stones for him to cultivate. In his view, a Scattered Wanderers Medical Cultivator was a money tree. As long as he could control Hua Ci, this money tree, he wouldn't have to take the risk of going to the Inner Circle.
It was because he was injured in a fight in the Inner Circle that he ran back to the Outer Circle.
This situation had been going on for more than twenty days. During these days, Hua Ci gave all the Spirit Stones she earned in the market to the other party in exchange for the safety of Ruan Lingyu and the others.
"Where are the others?"
The last time she came, there were still a dozen people from the Scattered Wanderers Club, but this time, there were only three left.
"They were killed." Hua Ci sighed. The Seventh-Order cultivator wanted to control Hua Ci, but Kong Niu and the others were unwilling. A conflict broke out between them and the Scattered Wanderers Club, and only a few people were left.
If it weren't for Hua Ci threatening with her own life, she was afraid that the entire Scattered Wanderers Club would have been killed. That was how the scar on her neck came to be.
Until today, when Lu Ye suddenly came, Hua Ci almost didn't hesitate to take action because she knew that no matter what Lu Ye came here for, once he understood her situation, he would definitely take action. Since that was the case, she had to take the initiative!
Fortunately, Lu Ye was stronger than she imagined and smoothly took care of the Seventh-Order cultivator.
Noticing Lu Ye's gaze, Hua Ci raised her hand to cover the scar and showed her usual gentle smile, "Anyway, I have to thank you."
Lu Ye waved his hand, "Without me, they probably wouldn't have lived long."
He did not know what Hua Ci had done to those people, but Lu Ye had seen the miserable state they were in just now. He knew that even without him, Hua Ci would be able to kill those people after some time. Of course, she would have to take some risks.
Hua Ci was a medical cultivator, but medical cultivators could also kill. According to Lu Ye's knowledge, there were some medical cultivators who liked to use poison and were called Poison Doctors. These people could often kill people without leaving a trace, and those who were killed by them all died miserable deaths.
"Let's not talk about me. What about you, the famous Lu Yi Ye? Why are you here instead of enjoying life in the Blue Blood Sect? Did you lose something here? "She had obviously heard about the battle at the Golden Light Summit.
Veins popped out on Lu Ye's forehead, "My name is Lu Ye!"
"Oh?" Hua Ci looked surprised, "I remember someone telling me that his surname is Lu and his name is Yi Ye. Was he lying to me?"
She looked at Lu Ye faintly and slowly shook her head, "Sure enough, men's words can't be trusted." She sighed again, "But forget it, who told you to save me. As the old saying goes, if you can't repay a life-saving grace, you can only repay it with your body …"
Her tone gradually weakened. Lu Ye raised his brow and looked at Hua Ci, only to see her lowering her head shyly. As she spoke, the jade hand covering her neck slowly slid down and rested on her lapel.
Lu Ye suddenly felt his mouth go dry and his eyes go blank. [Isn't this happiness coming too fast?] [The hero saves the beauty, and the beauty throws herself into his arms. Does this also happen to me?]
Hua Ci smoothed out the wrinkles on her lapel, her movements meticulous …
Lu Ye looked up and met a pair of teasing eyes.
Lu Ye closed his eyes and took a deep breath, looking forward to seeing this woman in front of him. [I really am a piece of shit!]
