Chapter 383: Senior brother, stand and get beaten!
The wind and snow were blowing on the top of the mountain, and the spiritual lights collided, causing the sky and the earth to darken and light up.
On the top of a towering cedar tree, Ye Anping, who had a bamboo hat on his head and a Snow Spirit Sword on his back, was standing there, covering his bamboo hat with his hands, and his dark purple eyes were extremely calm.
In his eyes, it was the golden dragon and black python entrenched on the mountainside. The fight between the two beasts had already dispersed the surrounding royal guards and demon cultivators.
At that moment, the golden dragon had fallen into a disadvantage.
I am afraid that in half an hour, it would be killed by the black python.
But even if he went to help now, it would only help the golden dragon to hold on for a while.
Ye Anping was silent for a moment, then turned to look towards the top of the mountain. The thunder snake flames roared endlessly, sometimes dancing with the sword light.
Junior sister and Yun Luo seemed to be at a standstill with Jiang Mojiao…
However, this was what he had expected. With just his junior sister and Yun Luo, without Feng Yudie’s Nine Heavenly Sword Art and Snow Spirit Sword, it would indeed be no easy task to kill Jiang Mojiao’s Nascent Soul.
However, with Mrs. Si’s protective spell, Yun Luo and her junior sister were now the safest among everyone.
“Sigh…”
Ye Anping let out a long breath and turned his head to look in the direction of the cave where Li Longling was hiding.
To be honest, Li Longling was what he was most worried about.
Li Longling was blind and was only in the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment. Although Lu Meimei was not strong in frontal strength, she was still a cultivator in the middle stage of Core Formation. There was a huge gap between the two.
“Longling, hold on a little longer, it’ll be fine in a while…”
After saying this, Ye Anping put down his bamboo hat slightly, turned his head toward the direction of the silver dragon spear in the east, and quickly escaped.
…
Bang——
The spear flashed and broke through the sky. On a dragon spear inlaid with the totem of two dragons playing with beads, the majestic ice aura turned into an ice dragon, stirred up the wind and snow in the sky, and hit a man and a woman in mid-air.
The eyes of the two people widened, and they quickly used their swords to escape into the air. Unexpectedly, the ice dragon suddenly raised its head and swallowed one of them in one bite.
The female demon cultivator, who had avoided the ice dragon, stretched out her hand and shouted: “Husband!!!”
She heard her husband screaming in a heart-breaking voice:
“Uhhhhhhh-!”
Her eyes widened, and she looked at Xu Mulan who was wielding a sword above her. She gritted her teeth and held the sword finger in front of her chest:
“You!! Big breasts!!! Give my husband back his life!”
The majestic blood energy gushed out from the skin all over her body, and the female cultivator turned into a blood-skinned tiger and suddenly rushed towards Xu Mulan.
When Xu Mulan saw it, she couldn’t help but widen her eyes and sheathed her sword to attack.
“Break!!”
During the roar, the ice dragon and blood tiger collided head-on in mid-air.
Boom–
The air waves created by the spiritual power uprooted all the cedar trees below and then fell into silence amidst the shrill scream of a woman and the dissipation of the bloody tiger.
“Ah——”
As a thunderous sound came out, Xu Mulan stabbed the female demon cultivator into the ground with the spirit spear in her hand and then twisted the spear.
Just listen to the crisp sound of “Click”.
The female demon cultivator spurted blood from her mouth, her body was shattered, and she died, and her skin and bones shrank into a mummy in an instant.
Xu Mulan stood up staggeringly and looked around. All he could see were the cedar trees that had been toppled by the battle and the corpses of five or six royal guards. She could not help but grit her teeth and wanted to kill the demonic cultivator with a spear, but her reason allowed her to hold back her anger.
“Where are Fairy Pei and Young Master Xiao…”
Xu Mulan glanced at the lightning flashes on the peak and the giant golden dragon and black python. Knowing that Pei Lianxue and others were still fighting hard, she immediately wanted to go over and help.
However, as soon as she took a step to stand up, her knees bent uncontrollably. She dared to say that the two core-formation demon cultivators she had just killed were the two most difficult demon cultivators she had encountered in the past few decades. Even her armor, which was given to her by the master of the Han Tian Kingdom, had several gaps opened by the two of them.
Xu Mulan knelt on the ground in embarrassment with a spear in hand, gritted her teeth, took out the healing elixir from her storage bag, and drank it.
However, just when the pill was about to fall into her mouth…
Whizzing–
The sound of breaking through the air came to her ears. What followed was a chilling murderous aura.
Xu Mulan’s eyes opened slightly, and she immediately pulled out the spear from the ground and blocked it.
Ding–
Sparks flew. A fist armor slammed into the spear shaft, and the strong wind and waves blew the bones of the demon cultivator below to pieces.
“Another physical training?!”
Xu Mulan’s eyes widened, and she looked at the owner of the fist. It was a man who looked like he was twenty years old.
Different from the demonic cultivators she had seen along the way, although this man was full of demonic energy, judging from his appearance, he did not have the “crazy” aura of the demonic cultivators.
Wu Tianci punched Xu Mulan’s spear barrel to restrain her from swinging the spear, then raised his knee and struck a knee strike on her breastplate from close range.
Xu Mulan was unable to resist, so she had to quickly protect her body with her spiritual power. However, the power of the dragon-elephant which was as strong as breaking a mountain during the period of physical cultivation in the core formation stage was not something she could block with her spiritual power.
“Startle–”
A dent was kicked out of the cold iron breastplate in an instant, and blood spurted out from her mouth and nose. Xu Mulan suddenly flew backward, breaking several cedar trees with her back.
She struggled to control her posture, kicked her feet onto the ground, forced herself to stop, and looked up at Wu Tianci who had just suddenly appeared. However, when she looked up, what she saw was a fist waving towards her face.
The word “death” stood prominently in her heart. This man’s fist armor was anything but ordinary. As soon as it hit the barrel of her spear, she felt the spirit spear in her hand scream. If she hadn’t used her skill to release the force, the spirit spear would have been destroyed in an instant but was interrupted by this man’s fist.
But her spirit spear was also made of centuries-old cold black iron. Even if a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage hits it with all his strength, it would never be damaged at all…
Not good! Very bad!
What to do?
It is said that before death, everything in a person’s eyes will pass by like years.
However, Xu Mulan could not think of a way to avoid this direct blow…
I can’t move my body!!
I can’t escape!!
“…Ah!”
Wu Tianci looked at the trace of despair flashing in Xu Mulan’s eyes and narrowed his eyes slightly, but suddenly he seemed to feel something and looked to the left.
A white shadow quickly emerged from the snowy forest. The ice-blue aura crossed a cross in mid-air and rested directly on the bridge of Xu Mulan’s nose.
Ding–
What reflected in Xu Mulan’s eyes was a long sword wrapped entirely in bandages. Ye Anping rushed in front of Xu Mulan, used a sword technique to block Wu Tianci’s fist, and then made a crosscut with the sword, but Wu Tianci quickly jumped back to avoid it.
Whoosh——
Wu Tianci leaped into the air, turned three and a half times in the air, and landed ten feet away from them. He squinted at the man in white clothes and hat who suddenly appeared in front of him, a trace of doubt flashing in his eyes.
Ye Anping raised his hand and slid the bandaged Snow Spirit Sword into several arcs around his body, stopped him in front of the kneeling Xu Mulan, and looked at her sideways:
“Fortunately, we caught up, Commander Xu.”
“Ye… Mr. Ye?”
Xu Mulan’s eyes flashed with surprise, but then she became serious again and said, “That’s an individual cultivator, and his fist armor is probably a mysterious treasure… you…”
“I know.”
Ye Anping interrupted softly, took a step forward, looked at Wu Tianci who was looking at him carefully in front of him, with a little surprise in his deep purple eyes, and said with a smile:
“Oh? I seem to have seen this face somewhere before. Let me think about it…”
Wu Tianci frowned slightly but did not respond.
He was not the kind of person who liked to talk during fights. He follows the principle that if you talk too much, you will make mistakes. Generally, after two or three fights with someone, you can find out the other person’s ins and outs. However, the strange ice-blue aura just now and the bandage-wrapped spiritual sword in his hand made him a little afraid to test it directly.
Not knowing the other party’s background, rushing towards him rashly would lead to death…
The key point was that the man in white didn’t have the temperament of an ordinary minor character. However, Ye Anping held his chin and was silent for a while, but then he raised his eyebrows and said as if he suddenly realized something.
“Your surname is Wu, right? I met an old demon cultivator in the Chilong Mansion who knew how to use formations. He was quite… weak. His bad formations looked very gorgeous, but in the end, they didn’t hit me once.”
Upon hearing this, a flash of anger flashed in Wu Tianci’s eyes, but he quickly suppressed it.
He’s irritating me… He knows my ins and outs…
“Liang Xiao Liu…”
“Oh?” Ye Anping smiled and replied in a dandy tone, “It seems that Ah Gu often mentions me to your junior brother, right? This is an honor.”
“Ah, Gu…”
“We’ll talk about Ah Gu later. First, let’s talk about the old demon cultivator who used the formation. I heard that it took him hundreds of years to create that formation, but unexpectedly it was so vulnerable. You guessed it, right? How did he die?”
“…”
“He was so angry with me because his formation-breaking technique didn’t hit me even once, and then suddenly with a bang, his whole body exploded. That scene… tsk tsk tsk… blood foam was flying everywhere. ”
Xu Mulan, who was kneeling on the ground behind Ye Anping, was stunned. Listening to Ye Anping’s tone of voice, for a moment, he felt that Ye Anping, who was standing in front of him now, was a demon cultivator.
This cannon fodder-like tone… made his teeth itch.
Wu Tianci gritted his teeth at this moment, but he knew that Liang Xiao Liu was provoking him, so he could barely control it.
Until–
Ye Anping raised his hand with his sword, took out a booklet from his storage bag, and said, “I got this from his storage bag… Thousand Punishment Formation Diagram. It took a hundred years to write such a shabby thing… Sigh——”
As he spoke, a burst of spiritual fire immediately ignited the slip. Seeing this scene, Wu Tianci couldn’t help it anymore. He stepped down suddenly with his front foot, sending hundreds of feet of snow mist flying on the snow, and he was in front of Ye Anping in one step.
It was also at this moment that the teasing look in Ye Anping’s deep purple eyes disappeared instantly. He held the Snow Spirit Sword in his hand, swung it upward, and at the same time let go of the burning letter in his right hand.
Swish——
The cold light disappeared as soon as it appeared. The confrontation between the two lasted only a moment, and then they distanced themselves again.
Ye Anping frowned slightly, and the scarf on his face slowly fell. Wu Tianci, who had retreated ten feet away, was holding the book stained with spiritual fire in his hand. The left shoulder of his robe exploded and then the black ice on the back was frozen.
Wu Tianci’s eyes widened, and he used his spiritual power to extinguish the spiritual fire on the slip and opened it to read. When he saw the contents of the scroll, he suddenly understood. Even though he was extremely careful, he was still aroused by Liang Xiao Liu.
He saw two words written on the first page of the letter: “Haha——”
The second page contained five bonus golden thunder talismans. The totem on the thunder talisman slowly showed a dazzling spiritual light.
Boom–
In the forest, flying snow and dust almost covered the sky and the sun.
“Ah ah ah ah—!”
Wu Tianci suddenly punched his fist and pushed down on his horse to disperse all the snow dust around him. However, the next moment, he saw the bandaged sword swinging toward his neck. He immediately raised his left fist, struck from bottom to top, and hit the sword with an uppercut, trying to break his spiritual sword.
His fist armor was a mysterious treasure given by the elder of the Heavenly Demon Sect, which could break through invisible spells and even spiritual power.
However, when the first armor fell on the sword’s surface, the bandage wrapped around the spirit sword suddenly disintegrated, revealing the ten-thousand-year-old black ice on the sword. The cold air was overwhelming, and his fists and armor were instantly covered with a layer of snow and frost.
“This sword…”
Wu Tianci couldn’t hide the surprise in his eyes, but he didn’t freeze either. He quickly leaned back and quickly opened the distance of five feet with extremely weird steps.
But the next moment, a vertical frost wound was left on his shoulder.
What happened?
It was a transverse cut, so why was the wound from top to bottom?
Both Liang Xiao Liu’s sword and his sword skills were extremely strange…
Wu Tianci gritted his teeth slightly and did not hide anymore. Instead, he stepped forward and rushed towards Ye Anping:
“Liang Xiao Liu!!!”
“Yes, yes… I’m not deaf, why are you shouting so loudly?”
Ye Anping’s eyes were extremely calm. He stepped directly onto the ground with his feet, quickly twisted the Snow Spirit Sword in his hand, parried, and then counterattacked. The two of them didn’t move at all, and their swords were facing each other two feet apart.
Ding–ding-ding-ding–
Boom——Boom——
Spiritual energy exploded in the forest, and bursts of air roared, and strong wind danced wildly around the two of them. Xu Mulan, who was lying on the ground beside him, was simply dazzled. This was the first time she saw a sword cultivator fighting with the same body cultivator.
Under this situation, the sword cultivator would suffer. Without the footwork, the power of the sword technique could not be exerted at all, and the physique of the sword cultivator was by no means as refined as that of the physical cultivator.
I want to help!
Xu Mulan gritted her teeth and struggled to stand up, but found that it was difficult to even hold the spear.
“Master Ye…”
Facing Wu Tianci’s punches, Ye Anping felt the pressure. If he hadn’t been in a hurry, he would never have fought with a physical cultivator like this. He had hundreds of ways to kill Wu Tianci without causing any harm, but now Li Longling and his junior sisters were waiting for him. The sooner Wu Tianci was eliminated, the less chance something would happen to them.
The first few high-grade golden thunder talismans in the first slip must have greatly consumed Wu Tianci’s martial energy and spiritual power. The irritation of the words could make him stare at himself instead of choosing the better option of “escape”.
If Wu Tianci knew that he was pressed for time, he would treat this matter as a guerrilla attack and not tangle with him too much.
So!!
Dingka——
A strange sound of striking metal burst out. Countless veins burst out from Wu Tianci’s forehead, and his whole body seemed to be boiling, spurting hot steam-like sweat out in the snow forest.
The glove of his right hand pinched Ye Anping’s sword blade, and then he clenched his fist with his left hand and punched Ye Anping in the abdomen.
Boom–
The long white coat suddenly burst open, revealing his lean upper body, and the muscles in his abdomen seemed to have lost eight pieces of shape and rolled up into a flower roll.
But Ye Anping didn’t move at all. Instead, he slapped the bottom of the hilt of his right sword with his left hand.
Swish——
The glove of Wu Tianci’s right hand holding the blade of the Snow Spirit Sword instantly showed countless tiny ice-blue auras, and then the entire arm exploded into minced meat and flew away.
“Uhhhhhhh-!!!”
While shouting violently, Wu Tianci concentrated all his spiritual power on his remaining left hand and struck a straight punch toward Ye Anping’s chest and heart. However, at the same time, Ye Anping half-turned the spiritual sword in his hand and made a horizontal cut, dodging the golden core in the Dan Tian of his waist and abdomen.
Click——!
Swish——!
The sound of broken bones was heard, and the first of Wu Tianci’s left hand hit Ye Anping’s chest directly, and a vast sea of blood burst out on his back.
Their movements stopped at the same time. The wind and snow seemed to have stopped at this moment, and the only sound left in the forest was the breathing of the two people.
“…”
“…”
Looking at Ye Anping’s calm face, Wu Tianci’s bloody eyes flashed with disbelief.
Why did this man hit me twice, but he still acted like nothing happened?
How could a sword cultivator in the early stage of the core formation be able to take two punches with all his strength so calmly, without even changing his face?
“You…”
Ye Anping interrupted with a cold voice, “Go find your father. I just lied to you. The formation your father spent hundreds of years creating is truly unique.”
“…”
Wu Tianci’s eyes widened, and then his upper body slipped from the waist up and fell to the ground, turning into a bust sculpture.
At that moment, Commander Xue finally got close to the two of them and landed on his lower body, which was still standing in place.
Ye Anping closed his eyes and took a deep breath, made a sword finger with his hand, took out a few fire talismans, threw them on Wu Tianci’s body, cremated him, then sheathed his sword and walked towards Xu Mulan who was looking at him dumbfounded.
“Commander Xu… Are you okay?”
“Ah…”
Xu Mulan looked at Ye Anping’s uncovered upper body and then looked down at her breastplate.
Just now, Wu Tianci’s kick had dented his cold iron breastplate, but Ye Anping physically withstood the two direct blows from the fist armor.
Is it possible that Ye Anping’s body is harder than her cold iron breastplate?
“Ye… Mr. Ye, are you… are you okay?”
“Do I think something is wrong?” Ye Anping smiled bitterly, stepped forward and took out a pill, fed it into her mouth, then turned to look behind a cedar nearby, “You two… hide behind the tree, please quickly send Commander Xu back to the boat to heal her injuries.”
Xu Mulan looked confused and turned around to look, only to find two royal guards on the foundation-building stage hiding behind a cedar tree with scars all over their bodies.
It seemed that they had been hiding there just now, probably looking for a chance to help, but they didn’t expect that Ye Anping would cut open the body of this core-formation stage in just a few breaths.
Two royal guards limped over and looked at Ye Anping’s lean and perfect figure. They couldn’t help but blush a little, cupped their hands and said, “Thank you, Senior Ye! We have just been…”
Ye Anping raised his hand to interrupt, “…We’ll talk about it later. Let’s take Commander Xu to recover from her injuries first.”
“…Yes.”
Xu Mulan was stunned for a moment and said quickly:
“No, I can still…”
“Go back quickly and leave the rest to us. If you fall, the Royal Guards will be in chaos. There are still so many demon cultivators that need to be dealt with…”
“…”
Xu Mulan looked at Ye Anping, suddenly afraid to look directly, and nodded faintly, “Well… Mr. Ye, please be careful, I… I’ll wait for you to come back.”
Seeing that the originally majestic Commander of the Royal Guards now looked like a young girl in love, Ye Anping pursed his lips slightly and nodded:
“Um.”
Two royal guards stepped forward, one of them held Xu Mulan’s shoulder, then summoned the flying sword and stepped on her, carrying her toward the boat in the distance.
Ye Anping, who was left alone in the snow forest, watched the three people go away with a smile.
Then…
Kneeling on the ground and covering his stomach, his whole face instantly turned pale.
“Hiss—uhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh”
Then he spit out a mouthful of blood and rolled directly down on the snow, trying to use the snow to relieve the severe pain in his chest and abdomen.
“Ha-ha-ha-I definitely won’t hit you like that next time…uh-”
After rolling around for a few times, Ye Anping took out the pain-relieving elixir from his storage bag and threw it into his mouth. When the elixir was almost done, he stood up, took out a spare piece of clothing from his storage bag, put it on his body, and ran quickly in the direction of the golden dragon and black python.
The golden dragon that looked like a mountain dome in the distance had its neck bitten by the black python at this time, and it looked like it wouldn’t be able to hold on much longer.
Ye Anping took a deep breath, quickened his pace, and at the same time put healing pills into his mouth while running, and ran about half a mile into the forest.
Two ethereal but somewhat miserable female voices came from a distance:
“Ouch——!” 』
“Tsk…”
Snap–
A slap resounded through the forest.
“You are a dog, right?!”
“Ouch——”
“Relax!!!”
“Oh, oh, oh… don’t pull my hair!”! You bastard!! Ouch——! 』
“Hiss–you golden bug!! Hey!! Where are you biting?!”
Listening to this strange sound, Ye Anping paused, his facial features suddenly gathered in the center of his face, and he felt mixed emotions in his heart, but he still ran over quickly following the sound.
…
