The sigh was not serious, but it seemed to ring in their ears, and the couple were shocked. Based on their senses, they didn't notice anyone approaching unknowingly, and they all felt extremely vigilant in their hearts.
Looking left and right, there was no sign of anyone. Zhang Ru pinched Zhuo Mufeng and backed away while shouting: "Who, who is pretending to be a ghost? Come out if you have the guts!"
Gong Bei
"Killing can only be done with a nod of the head. This boy will definitely die, so why torture him with this method." The voice floated in the night wind, and no matter how hard the couple listened, they still could not determine the source of the voice.
Now the couple was really surprised, and finally realized that the person coming was far superior to them in martial arts.
Gong Beixuan was afraid of causing trouble, so he quickly winked at his wife and said, "Your Majesty is right. My husband and I have learned a lesson. Madam, please kill this kid quickly!"
Zhang Ru is not a stupid woman with no brains. Her purpose is only to avenge her son. Although she cannot torture Zhuo Mufeng as much as she can to make her regretful, it is better than making her powerful enemy dissatisfied.
Hearing this, his eyes sharpened, his power moved into his palm, and he suddenly twisted Zhuo Mufeng's neck.
But just then——
A thin blade of light struck from the right side. The blade was not fast, and was even so fragile that it seemed to scatter in the wind. But when it appeared, it had already been aimed at Gong Beixuan and his wife, causing the two of them to die.
A feeling of no escape.
Gong Beixuan was about to take the attack when he suddenly heard a cry from behind. He turned his head and his eyes widened in horror. But it was his wife who was covering her arm in pain, and blood kept coming out of the wound.
A gust of cool wind blew past my eyes, which was caused by the scattered light of the sword.
Only then did Gong Beixuan realize that the sword was faster than he thought. What he and his wife saw were just the shadows left by the sword's light.
It's hard to imagine what would have happened if the other party had aimed the knife at his wife's vital part, and what would have happened if it had been aimed at him.
Gong Bei
Zhang Ru saw Zhuo Mufeng falling to the ground. Although he saw that the other party was bound to die, she still felt angry and resentful. Regardless of the knife wound on her right arm, she hit Zhuo Mufeng on the head hard while being dragged.
Seeing this, it was too late for Gong Beixuan to stop him, and he was worried that he was going to suffer. If Zhuo Mufeng was killed, it would probably make the people in the dark angry.
With his skill raised to 120%, Gong Beixuan used the fastest speed in his life, grabbed his wife and flew away without even daring to look back.
The couple did not see that before Zhang Ru's palm touched Zhuo Mufeng, it was disintegrated by a wisp of energy in the night. Then, the sighs started again, and a thin wisp of sword light was like a drifting sword.
Pieces of paper flew out of the woods on the right.
A snort!
"Ah..." Zhang Ru's ferocious face turned pale, but two fingers of her right hand were cut off by a sword that appeared at an unknown time. Gong Beixuan turned around and saw a figure around him?
Is this a ghost?
It's not like the couple has never seen the world before. In the last Fengyun Conference, they witnessed the battle for the top spot on the Star Ranking with their own eyes, but even Xiaoyao Hou was far from able to use such a method.
Damn it, could it be that he is an old monster who has been living in seclusion for many years and was blasted out by the Hexiang Dan?
Both the couple were so frightened that they no longer dared to take any chances and fled in a hurry. They only regretted that their parents had lost a pair of wings.
In the blink of an eye, the two of them disappeared without a trace.
After a while, a figure slowly walked out of the woods on the right. Perhaps because of the angle, the moonlight cast a long shadow on the ground.
He was quiet and steady, taking every step very calmly, as if he had measured it carefully. His feet stepped on the fallen leaves, making crisp sounds from time to time.
The moonlight shone on this strange man who scared Gong Beixuan and his wife away without showing his face, and it turned out to be a woodcutter!
He was wearing a bamboo hat, so his appearance could not be seen clearly, and he only showed a very distinctive chin. He was neither tall nor short, wearing an ordinary woodcutter's shorts and straight trousers, with mango shoes on his feet, and a bamboo basket on his shoulder.
Stacks of firewood.
A rusty and simple hatchet hung on his waist, swaying gently as he walked. It was hard to imagine that this man could wield such unpredictable knife skills.
The woodcutter walked up to Zhuo Mufeng and looked at him quietly. After a long time, he sighed in a low voice: "It's really fate. Back then, I received a great favor from the Blood Demon. Unexpectedly, today I bumped into the Demonic Dragon Neidan.
The master has been planning for thousands of years, but he is finally born. I shouldn’t have helped... That’s it, that’s all, Blood Demon Son, let me repay your kindness..."
He knew that when he took action, he had already made a decision in his heart.
After hesitating for a moment, the woodcutter stretched out his left hand and lifted it up in the air. Zhuo Mufeng's body lying on the ground immediately levitated. The woodcutter's hand was like lightning, so fast that the void could not keep his trajectory, and he kept hitting Zhuo Mufeng with his palms.
Mu Feng's burned body.
Under the stimulation of the woodcutter, the power of the inner elixir that had been nearly suppressed in the body by the white-clothed sister who had spent her whole life's efforts suddenly poured out like a torrent, rushing wildly around the body.
However, it is different from the situation when he first swallowed the magic dragon inner elixir. The woodcutter controlled the power very accurately. It was more like he had an insight into the distribution position of the inner elixir. He did not destroy the restriction set by the sister in white, but only opened it.
A cut.
Following this opening, a massive amount of inner elixir power swept through Zhuo Mufeng's body. But under the control of the woodcutter, this power, which was enough to frighten most of the experts on the Tianxing Ranking, turned out to be extremely well-behaved, without any leakage.
.
When he realized that the power of the inner elixir gushing out was enough, the woodcutter slapped it with a palm and sealed the opening with his supreme skill. The subsequent endless flow of inner elixir power suddenly died down and was sealed in Zhuo Mufeng.
Deep inside the body.
The woodcutter turned and walked to the right, and Zhuo Mufeng's body was lying on his side and floating behind him, as if there were invisible threads pulling each other.
After a while, the two of them came to a cave somewhere. The woodcutter removed his power, and Zhuo Mufeng fell gently to the ground.
"I have the unparalleled inner elixir, and I hope you can take care of yourself. If I find out in the future that you have done anything wrong and committed murder, I can save your life, but I can also take it back at any time. Then it will be useless for the Blood Demon Son to plead for you!"
After taking a deep look at Zhuo Mufeng, the woodcutter stepped out of the cave. The ground seemed to have shortened a lot under his feet. Regardless of the forest peaks and steep hillsides in front of him, it was as if he was walking on flat ground.
After a while, he walked out of Maharaja Mountain in a swagger. The imperial soldiers and horses stationed outside were not aware of him from the beginning to the end.
…
The night passed in a blink of an eye.
Before midnight, many masters had gathered at the edge of the ring, standing together according to their respective sects or casual cultivators. Even some old guys from the Tianxing Ranking who had not been seen for a long time appeared in front of people for the first time.
Because according to the progress of the conference, today is likely to be the turn of the battle for the Star Ranking.
Not long after, people discovered that Li Qiuhan, Tang Xiu, and Yan Qingting all arrived one by one along with the masters of the sect. When the Tao family team appeared, it caused quite a noise at the scene.
Tao Yin still had a plain complexion and was wearing a green shirt that had been washed white. He looked ordinary and nothing outstanding. But it was him like this who dominated the crowd yesterday and eclipsed all the masters of his generation.
.
Just by looking at the reaction at the scene, one can see Tao Yin's status in everyone's minds.
Yue Chao, Feng Yulou and Ouyang Yuan in the crowd had no time to pay attention to this. They were just waiting for something anxiously and expectantly. When the Sanjiang League team arrived, the three people's eyes immediately shrank and they quickly scanned the crowd.
When Zhuo Mufeng was not found, the three of them looked at each other and saw joy in each other's eyes.
Last night, Gong Beixuan and his wife returned home wounded. They said they had encountered some sword master and described the man as extremely terrifying. The three of them thought the operation had failed.
However, the couple added that Zhuo Mufeng had been hit hard before and was dead when they left.
The three of them stayed up all night, and were always a little worried before seeing the results. Now that Wu Guanting and others looked calm, and they obviously didn't know what happened to Zhuo Mufeng, it was basically certain that Zhuo Mufeng was dead.
"I'll send someone to investigate later. I'm a little worried because I didn't see the body." Yue Chao said through a message.
Early this morning, they ordered people to follow the instructions of Gong Beixuan and his wife to go to the place where the incident occurred to look for Zhuo Mufeng's body. However, they have not returned yet and they don't know if they have found it.
Feng Yulou and Ouyang Yuan both nodded. The three of them acted prudently, and they were always a little uneasy without seeing any conclusive evidence.
Everyone from the Sanjiang League came to the viewing position designated by the imperial court for them. At this time, the morning sun was shining brightly and the scorching sun was rising into the sky. It was less than a quarter of an hour before Chen Shi.
Wu Yuanyuan looked around and couldn't help but snorted when she didn't see any annoying guy. Lan Xiang, who was standing not far from her, had a strange look in his eyes. He looked at Feng Yulou in the distance and quickly moved away.
As time passed, the flow of people under the ring continued to increase, almost reaching a new high since the beginning of the conference. The pavilion was even more packed, and the idle senior officials and their wives were all waiting eagerly.
After a while, Mei Shanhui came with a man and a woman.
Upon seeing this, Zhuge Zhen immediately said: "The meeting begins!"
With the preparations made a few days ago, the people who appeared now were not embarrassed. As soon as the voice fell, a figure landed on the ring. It was Yan Qingting. He looked down and said loudly: "Tang Xiu, come on
Bar."
The named Tang Xiu smiled faintly and landed opposite Yanqing Pavilion, standing ten feet away.
The already high emotions of everyone around were immediately ignited. This was one of the most anticipated matches among the Earth Spirit Ranking and Youth Group since the beginning of the conference.
Even some old guys who had never shown up could not help but raise their heads with interest and look at the two people on the ring after hearing the discussions of the people around them.
