Chapter 287 - Chapter 287: Chapter 269 Zhang Yuan’s Choice (2/2)

“Neither of them will be able to escape, Young Master Yuan, you should stop fooling yourself…”

“Since the lord has dared to reveal his true identity, he had no intention of leaving either of them alive.”

Lin Jing had naturally thought of this as well.

That’s why he had just tried to inform Zhang Yuan.

But Zhang Wu interrupted him.

After hearing this, Zhang Yuan immediately had a moment of enlightenment, his gaze becoming resolute as he looked at Zhang Wu and said,

“If there’s no intention to leave any survivors, then you might as well kill me too.”

Zhang Wu furrowed his brows and then spoke,

“Young Master Yuan, if you continue to be so stubbornly delusional, then do not blame me for being heartless.”

Following that, Zhang Wu started to close in.

Zhang Yuan, however, positioned himself in front of Lin Jing and the others.

Just then,

“Boom!”

A loud explosion rang out in the sky, a massive wave of force mixed with violent spiritual energy sweeping across the area.

In an instant, the surrounding trees were all uprooted, and even Lin Jing, Huang Qingling, and Zhang Yuan were blown far away by the tremendous blast.

Fortunately, the three were quick to react; in mid-air, they had already circulated their spiritual power to form protective shields, blocking the majority of the explosive force.

After they landed, thankfully, they were not seriously injured.

“Zhang Chenfan, what does it matter that you’ve cultivated demonic techniques.”

“Now that your magical treasure has self-destructed along with my flying sword, you cannot withstand my Five Elements Divine Art without a magical treasure.”

This voice belonged to the Wu Cai Immortal.

No wonder the blast was so powerful, it turned out the magical treasures had self-destructed.

Once they landed, Zhang Yuan hurriedly said to the two,

“Brother Lin, Miss Qing Ling…”

“You two, quickly leave.”

However, Lin Jing could only helplessly shake his head and reply,

“Brother Zhang, it’s too late to leave now…”

Because Lin Jing had already seen Zhang Wu flying towards them; his speed was very fast.

He was quickly above them.

“Young Master Yuan, you have greatly disappointed me…”

“And you have greatly disappointed the lord as well…”

Zhang Yuan turned around and shielded Lin Jing and Huang Qingling behind him.

“Lord Wu, this is my own choice.”

“If you want to harm my friends, then you’ll have to kill me first.”

Facing Zhang Wu, a Golden Core Immortal, the three at the Foundation Establishment level didn’t stand much of a chance.

But they were not going to sit there and await their demise.

This time, Lin Jing had no choice but to reveal his cultivation.

Although it might not be of much use.

By now, Huang Qingling had already adjusted herself and produced her flying sword.

Lin Jing likewise summoned his Flawless Sword.

At the same time, one of Lin Jing’s hands reached towards his Storage Bag, where his last resort lay—the ultimate sword.

Whether they could turn the situation around and escape from Zhang Wu’s clutches depended on the ultimate sword.

Zhang Wu, seeing their determination, couldn’t help but laugh.

“Young Master Yuan, it seems you’ve made up your mind to join them and become an enemy of the lord.”

“Lord Wu, in life, one must have something worth guarding, and today I fight for my friends. Even if I die, I will have no regrets!”

“Good… good… good…”

“In that case, Young Master Yuan, don’t blame me for showing no mercy.”

With those words, the aura emanating from Zhang Wu continued to rise.

And with that, a fiery-red Treasure Pestle was also summoned by Zhang Wu.

At this moment, Huang Qingling stepped forward, standing beside Zhang Yuan.

And so, Zhang Yuan and Huang Qingling, subconsciously protected Lin Jing behind them.

Together, the two of them summoned their magical treasures, confronting Zhang Wu.

At this time, Lin Jing had not yet fully revealed his cultivation level; he still appeared to be at the ninth level of Qi Refinement.

He was not in a hurry to show his true power now.

The situation now seemed more suitable for a surprise attack.
