Chapter Seventy-Six: I Am the Yellow Sparrow
Dead and silent rainy night, with dead killing intent.
Xu Chen slowly raised his right hand, the steel knife hummed, and the raindrops that fell quickly slid down the finger-wide place on the back of the knife, which was an invisible line, a line supported by abundant spiritual energy.
As the steel knife lay across the air, the sound of rain seemed to stop abruptly, and in its place was the sound of death flowing.
At this time, the five pupils of the ghost who had already jumped up suddenly retracted, and after a slight movement of his right hand, a steel knife beside him flew up from the hand of a dead corpse and fell gently into his hand, and he was ready to make the final blow.
"You're the first person I'm going to kill today, you should be glad!"
Xu Chen said coldly.
If a second-realm cultivator dared to say such things to a fourth-realm cultivator in normal times, he would definitely be called a madman or a fool by others.
But at this time, everyone present would not doubt Xu Chen's arrogant words, because of the weird and old voice just now, because of all this strange scene just now.
Of course, at this time, there was a person smiling secretly, although he had been silent, but he had been vigilantly watching the changes around him, in the sky, the dark clouds outside of his sight gradually surged towards this area, like a rushing sea, he knew that this was caused by the young man, so he finally knew the origin of this young man, that is the origin that even the young man himself did not know.
The shadow of the knife broke through the air, and the ghost five tried all his cultivation to use this knife, he didn't know what the result would be, but he had to do it. In the final analysis, he is a slave of the Bai family after all, and the orders of the head of the family are his life, and he must not obey, doubt, or even hesitate.
Originally, he was still waiting for the carriage that had not arrived for a long time, but at this time, he was no longer allowed to wait a little longer, he originally wanted to use the lives of those free gangsters to earn time for himself, but at this time, he could only use his life to buy time for that person, in short, the result was the most important, and that result was Xu Chen's death.
The cold steel knife passed through the cold raindrops, because it was too fast, so there was not a single splash, and the steel knife fell extremely quickly from the top of Xu Chen's head.
However, Xu Chen didn't seem to react at this time, just watching the steel knife split.
Yes, he was watching, although the knife was falling extremely fast, but for some reason, he could clearly feel the steel knife approaching little by little, as if time had suddenly slowed down.
Suddenly, with a dull cold snort, Xu Chen moved.
It's another sharp show, and it's another arc, breaking the blade and counterattacking, all in one go, without the slightest pause.
"Uh......"
After a brief and painful moan, his head was out of place, and his eyes could even see his body slowly falling to the ground.
Clean and neat, this is the scorching killing intent.
However, no one expected that just as Xu Chen's counterattack was implemented, a black shadow swept out of the courtyard wall with a rain curtain.
There was obviously a bright light in front of the black shadow, and it went straight to Xu Chen's choked throat, no! it was his chest, because that person had already discovered Xu Chen's secret, and of course, it was also Xu Chen's weakness.
The inverted light quickly approached with the violent impact, and when it was about to reach Xu Chen's body, the light turned into two, and it was as if two sword blades flew in an instant.
With the mountain sword, with the mountain sword.
Even if Xu Chen could use the power of that mysterious old man at this time, I am afraid it would be difficult to dodge this sword, because, from the opponent's sword momentum and speed, it can be seen that this is definitely a great cultivator above the Six Realms.
The scarred face that had been behind Xu Chen had naturally been seen, but he couldn't do anything, not because he couldn't do anything at this time, but even if he wasn't seriously injured at this time, he could only sigh.
It was a cultivator of the Six Realms, and what the Six Realms represented, this is something that every cultivator understands. That is the cultivation of the spiritual element of the mountain sect, the cultivation of ten thousand voids.
Among the known cultivators in the empire, there would never be more than ten cultivators who could reach the Six Realms. Don't say that Bai Qitian has exhausted his life's strength and has not touched the edge of the Six Realms, even if he is a recognized sword saint Murong Fengchen, isn't he also stuck in the late stage of the Six Realms for more than twenty years and cannot move forward half a step?
Some people have even said that there will be no more cultivators of the Seven Realms in this world, and there will be no more real great cultivators of the past, of course, except for the mysterious Xuanwei real person, because among the people who are alive now, no one has ever seen the Xuanwei real person make a move, this is the real secret of the Dushan Sect being able to stand out from the crowd.
Scarface could only watch as the long sword stabbed at Xu Chen.
The person who came out of this sword is afraid of death, and he is extremely afraid of death, otherwise he would not have hidden his strength for so many years, and he would not be willing to be a small imperial history.
However, no matter how cautious a person is, he can't resist the temptation, he knows the value of Xu Chen, or rather, the value of a certain item, if he can get it, he doesn't need to live a forbearance anymore, who doesn't want to live a free life, who doesn't want to have the courage to have everything in the world that belongs to me.
The blade stabbed, with a murderous aura, and even more with **.
At that moment, Xu Chen suddenly felt a sudden tingling pain in his chest, as if he had lost something.
However, when he reacted, he realized that he was not dead, because the man did not think that a sword would kill him.
The long sword pierced along the placket of Xu Chen's chest, instantly cutting through his flesh and his shirt, and the tip of the sword accurately found a red rope, and then quickly and lightly picked it off.
At such a fast speed, the sword can still be used so accurately, which shows the strength of the other party.
With the rain that fell to the ground with a "poof" of a crystal clear jade sword, that person also stood quietly in front of Xu Chen.
"It's you!"
Xu Chen ignored the blood that slowly flowed out of his chest, and looked coldly at the middle-aged man opposite, the dignified imperial history, Zhang Qinglian.
"What's the matter?
Zhang Qinglian smiled slightly, "As a cultivator, the most important thing you should understand is forbearance, and of course, you must also have self-knowledge. Otherwise, how can you get along safely?"
As he spoke, he pointed at Ghost Five's head with his somewhat weak long sword, and said with a slight sneer: "It's a pity that he can reach the fourth realm at a young age, and if it takes a little time, who would dare to predict his future? He doesn't know how to forbear, and he doesn't know how to know self-knowledge." ”
This series of emotions seems to be regretting, but in fact it is praising one's own mind.
At this time, the red in Xu Chen's eyes began to slowly fade, and the black flame that was caused by anger gradually extinguished, and a sense of powerlessness surged up in an instant.
"You just used the sword duel against the mountain!"
"Yes!"
"Is there anything you want to tell me?"
Xu Chen asked calmly, I don't know when, as long as he saw the Dushan Sword Duel, or something related to the Dushan Sword Duel, he had an inexplicable sensitivity.
Zhang Qinglian smiled bitterly, and even replied with some pity: "It's really pitiful! You see, what an old child is so tortured by hatred that seeing everyone is like seeing a sad person." Isn't that something wrong with your head?"
As he spoke, he calmly and easily inserted the long sword in his hand into the rain, and with a casual jump, the green jade sword had already appeared in his hand.
"Xu Chen, don't worry, I have no grudge with you in the long run, and I have no enmity in the near future, and your family is not harmed by me. Think about it, can I, a person who can forbear, take a shot casually? That's not my character!"
"Good!"
Xu Chen nodded, "Since you said that the two of us have no grudges in the long future and no enmity in the near future, then, please give me back my things!"
"Oh?"
Zhang Qinglian looked dazed, although he still had a cold smile, but the smile was obviously laughing at Xu Chen's innocence, "Then you think too much, have you ever seen something eaten in your stomach and then spit it out?"
At this time, his words suddenly changed, "Okay, I don't know you like a doll, let's get down to business! I don't want to kill you, and I don't want to kill you, but there is a premise for this, that is, I want to know how you use this little jade sword, how about it, a casual word can change a life, it's worth it!"
Threat, this is a naked threat.
And Xu Chen could hear that what the other party said was that if he said it, the other party would not kill him, but the rest could not be guaranteed.
What's more, even Xu Chen himself didn't know how to use the little jade sword, he only knew, he didn't know when, the mysterious old man would wake up and chat with him for a few words, if he said that he was using it, then he was just doing it casually, it was not that he was controlling the jade sword at all, but more like the jade sword was controlling him.
Then again, even if he knew how to use it, he would never say it, after all, it was his mother's relic, it was the placebo he missed, and he would not give it to anyone unless he died.
Before Xu Chen could make a statement, a man dressed in a cloak had already walked out of the big hole in the courtyard wall, he was holding a broken sword in his hand, slowly came to Zhang Qinglian's side, and asked in a slightly tactful voice: "Lord Zhang, don't you want to end this matter for General Ximen? Don't forget, what are we here for today!"
Zhang Qinglian did not answer, but it was more powerful than the answer, he turned his head very slowly, looking at the face under the rain hat, his eyes were extremely fierce, this is a warning, the most effective warning, more direct than a thousand words.
Li Dutong stopped talking, for him, it was naturally good to be able to kill Xu Chen today, and he could mix some capital with Ximenwang, of course, even if he couldn't kill him, he couldn't blame himself, as long as he could bring these dozens of Imperial Forest soldiers back safely, he would be content.
He had appreciated Zhang Qinglian's sword just now, and he knew that if the other party was willing, he wouldn't be able to leave the dozens of people, so he had to be silent.
In a world where the law of the jungle is the strongest, force is king. So you are either the strong, or you are on the side of the strong, and at worst, you can't be on the opposite side of the strong.
Zhang Qinglian slowly turned his head back and said to Xu Chen: "Have you thought about it? I'm very impatient, especially on such a rainy day! Okay! I'll count three, three counts are over, either you go or you die......!"
"One!"
Xu Chen blurted out, leaving no chance for himself at all.
"Hah!"
Zhang Qinglian was dumbfounded, he didn't expect that a person would not care about his life so much, in his world, life is the most precious, if it was him, he would definitely choose to live firmly, because only by living can he have a chance!
"Okay! If you want to die, then I will fulfill you. ”
Zhang Qinglian was holding the jade sword with his left hand, and his right hand had been raised, and the only thing the sword pointed at was death.
