1436 Fierce Battle (2)
Xiao Shan and Wu Haoming couldn’t help but chuckle at the two silly boys’ words. After Director Feng glared at them, they obediently shut up.
Chi Shuyan, who was fighting on the other side, didn’t know that she was being treated as a ‘god.’ At that moment, she was focused on dealing with the person in front of her. From the fight just now, she realized that this person had a trace of dragon qi in his body. He was very difficult to deal with. Her talismans alone couldn’t cause the other party the slightest bit of damage. No matter what level the talismans were, they were useless against the person in front of her.
Cultivators who could refine dragon qi for their own use were all very talented. Now, she was just glad that there was only a very faint trace of dragon qi in this person’s body, and he hadn’t completely refined it. Otherwise, it would be extraordinarily difficult to deal with someone who had completely shed their skin and bones.
This person’s cultivation was definitely extraordinary, and even surpassed that of the evil cultivator, Wu Fuzhang, whom she had killed before.
The more they fought, the more alarmed Chi Shuyan became.
The black-robed man was also alarmed by the young lady’s skills and methods. He never expected such a young lady to be so skilled. She actually held the upper hand repeatedly against him; he almost felt that he had run into some old demon.
The black-robed man stared intently at the young lady in front of him. After confirming that she wasn’t an old demon and that she really wasn’t more than 20 years old, the black-robed man’s eyes flashed in shock again. He very much suspected that she had some sort of secret treasure. At that thought, the way the black-robed man looked at her changed again. Apart from a trace of coldness, there was also a hint of greed.
The fight between the two paused for a moment, and the black-robed man shouted coldly, “Little girl, how dare you spoil my fun? Given your age, I can let you off for now, but you must hand over the treasure that you’re hiding on you.”
Chi Shuyan blinked. Speaking of which, she really did have a secret treasure. She didn’t expect this person to have such discerning eyes. However, there was no way she would hand it over. Chi Shuyan feigned ignorance and said, “What secret treasure? Why don’t I know about it? As for you, who on earth are you? Why were you hiding in Dashan Village?”
The black-robed man was certain that the other party was hiding a treasure. Otherwise, it was impossible for her to be so powerful at her age. Seeing that she refused to take the easy way out and give in, he waved his hand, and black smoke gathered around him. Soon, baleful aura and cadaveric qi condensed into a ball and attacked her.
This was the first time Chi Shuyan had seen an evil cultivator gather cadaveric qi and baleful qi. Not only that, there was also a hint of golden light in it. Chi Shuyan’s expression was somewhat heavy. Seeing the other party attack, she darted out of the way. The baleful aura and cadaveric qi hit the spot where she had been and immediately exploded. An expanse of green grass turned yellow. This power was pretty much like intense radiation.
Seeing that the other party had dodged, the black-robed man gathered black baleful aura and cadaveric qi in his hands once more. He was about to attack, when Chi Shuyan took out a jade pendant and threw it into the air. The jade pendant flashed with a golden light and blocked the baleful aura and cadaveric qi. Not long after, however, the baleful aura and cadaveric qi seeped into Chi Shuyan’s rare high-grade level 3 jade pendant, and a few cracks gradually appeared. Seeing that she couldn’t block the black smoke, Chi Shuyan could only take out a high-grade level 4 jade pendant. She shouted, “Go!”
A beam of light shot out from the level 4 jade pendant in the air. Not only did it block the black smoke, it also attacked the space between the black-robed man’s eyebrows. The jade pendant was extremely fast, but the black-robed man’s cultivation was also very profound. He barely dodged the jade pendant, which shaved off a small portion of his hair.
The black-robed man didn’t expect that not only was the young lady in front of him powerful, she also had countless tricks up her sleeve. He didn’t believe that she didn’t have some sort of rare treasure.
The black-robed man wanted it very much, so he went all out and collected black smoke together once more. However, this time was different. He was surrounded by cadaveric qi and baleful qi. Not long after, the black-robed man was enveloped in the black smoke, and his figure became more and more blurry, as if he was blending into the black smoke.
Chi Shuyan’s face was dark as she stared at the black-robed man apprehensively. She wasn’t afraid of his various methods, but she was afraid of the cadaveric qi and baleful aura around him, especially the baleful aura. If this kind of thing accidentally entered her body, it would affect her future cultivation tremendously. It was very difficult to expel baleful aura and cadaveric qi from the body; sometimes, it was even harder than ascending to the heavens, when the baleful aura and cadaveric qi were insidious enough.
But no matter how apprehensive she was, she couldn’t avoid this fierce battle.
Chi Shuyan’s face darkened as she prepared for the upcoming fight. Suddenly, she saw the black-robed man stop condensing the black smoke and look in the direction of the hotel. His face, which had been filled with confidence at the beginning, turned very terrified.
“What is it?”
For a moment, the black-robed man could only sense thick baleful aura and cadaveric qi which exceeded his imagination in a certain part of the hotel, and it was still getting thicker; it was even thicker than the baleful aura and cadaveric qi he had seen in the dragon vein in Dashan Village in the past, and his heart started to tremble.
The black-robed man had no doubt that there was an unknown ‘huge monster’ hiding in this hotel which he couldn’t afford to offend. Sensing that this ‘huge monster’ was getting closer and closer, the black-robed man was so shocked that his face turned ashen. Seeing his opponent look at him suspiciously and warily, the black-robed man naturally wouldn’t warn her. Taking advantage of Chi Shuyan’s inattention, he turned around and ran away quickly. In any case, this little girl would die in this hotel sooner or later. He would come back later to fish for benefits.
How could Chi Shuyan let the black-robed man leave? As the saying went, if the roots weren’t destroyed, the grass would grow again. She immediately ordered the high-grade level 4 jade pendant to attack. The level 4 jade pendant flashed with light and swiftly attacked the black-robed man. However, it was as if the black-robed man had eyes on his back, and he immediately dodged the attack. He also released a lot of baleful aura and cadaveric qi to block the jade pendant. The jade pendant hummed and shook as the baleful aura and cadaveric qi slowly seeped into it. The black-robed man gloated and smiled smugly at Chi Shuyan.
The next second, the smile on his face suddenly disappeared as he felt a sharp pain in his chest. He looked down in disbelief and saw that a hole had been pierced in his heart by some sharp weapon. Bright red blood flowed out.
“Return!” Chi Shuyan ordered, and the Iron Essence that had pierced the black-robed man’s heart returned to her hand. When the black-robed man saw the thing in her palm, he stared at her with unconvinced and greedy eyes. After a while, he closed his eyes and died.
