Chapter 41 (2/2)
And Yan Wushi+ inside
This was unquestionably a huge surprise Li Yue tried to cal slightly, causing even the torch in his hand to shi+ver The fire flickered back and forth inside the cave, bringing an air of unidentifiable precarity
He knew that Yan Wushi+ ounded and had coht either Otherwise Li Yue wouldn't be able to co
If…if he could kill Yan Wushi+ and display his corpse in front of the public, he would undoubtedly becoht
By then, everyone would know that the person who killed the Dee of the Linchuan Institute, but hion!
With his heart in a frenzy, he didn't even consider the trouble that was sure to follow For example, in the case where he truly killed Yan Wushi+, hoould he fend off theMoon Sect as they pursue and try to kill him? Hoould he ed to kill Yan Wushi+, someone that even Ruyan Kehui could not?
But Li Yue didn't think about it any more The temptation of honor and fa out the sword on his waist…
The tip of the sword advanced inch by inch The Deorous spirits during the day was now right in front of him, unconscious, at the mercy of his hands
Even Li Yue's face became somewhat twisted because of the excitement
Suddenly, his expression froze
Eyes wide open, Li Yue stared at the bamboo stick which had suddenly appeared and blocked the tip of his sword
”Taking advantage of others' misfortunes is not the act of an honest man As you are now, your martial arts will not advance by even an inch in your lifetime,” Shen Qiao said calmly ”You should leave”
Li Yue furiously retorted, ”What would you know!? When I entered the world of reat aptitude; ould have known the growth of my martial arts would've come to a halt at twenty-five?!
Shen Qiao shook his head ”After killing him, will your martial arts be able to i Because you suddenly have the chance to control the life of a strong person, you feel an unbearable excitement Don't let yourself be controlled by the dehout your entire life you will never again advance along the hly infuriated by hi here for! Shen Qiao, don't think that no one recognizes you Who in the martial world doesn't know that you and Yan Wushi+ are colluding with each other! Even Mount Xuandu chased you out of its doors Because of you, Qi Fengge has no reatest? As if! You're just a sweet-talking disciple who's sold out his body in return for the De a slave? Are you scared that if I kill Yan Wushi+, there will be no one left to protect you? If you're aon others!”
Shen Qiao didn't becory because of what he said Ever since his identity was revealed at the Su residence by Duan Wenyang, h they didn't say it out loud, it didn't hts as Li Yue in their hearts Shen Qiao had heard even uglier words than this before
But in reality, those sharp words were still only words; if you paid them no mind, others wouldn't be able to har that he did not speak, felt that his yelled insults had been effective and iet in the way, after killing Yan Wushi+, we can split whatever goods he has on hi out
His sword flashed out at an extreh speed, a th aiht at Yan Wushi+'s heart fro continuously The sword didn't stab Yan Wushi+'s body, instead, it was sent flying, its tip drawing an arc in the air before it fell directly to the ground
Li Yue felt a sharp pain in his wrist and unwittingly cried out His reaction speed was already fast As he saw the baht doards to stabilize his lower body while bending his entire upper body backwards Having escaped froain as he grasped for the bamboo stick and sent a kick towards Shen Qiao's lower body
But his opponent's body drifted back out of reach, then immediately appeared behind him at an unbelievable speed Li Yue hadn't yet been able to react before a pal hiht away
Li Yue's loss was not because he had underestimated Shen Qiao, because even if he hadn't underestimated the other, the result was destined to be the saht at Residence of Su that day was a hushed affair, and Bai Rong and Xiao Se who had already lost quite a few ti around about their defeats Therefore, many people's impression had frozen at the battle on Half-Step Peak In addition to all the rumors and hearsay later, their opinion on Shen Qiao fell drastically The more respectful they were, the le night, Shen Qiao and Yan Wushi+'s nas'
Shen Qiao stopped paying attention to Li Yue and walked up to Yan Wushi+ As soon as he touched hih the skin of his pal to invade and spread to all of his limbs and bones Alarmed, he removed his hand immediately, but it still took quite soradually subsided
He found out that not only was Yan Wushi+'s body as hard as a piece of ice, the person himself looked barely alive He seeh Li Yue was talking and fighting right next to hi
Shen Qiao thought for a rabbed the other person's hand from the sleeve and took his pulse
The heart was still beating There were still breaths co out from his nose But the meridians appeared to be in disorder, as if several different strea inside his body but at the sa with one another because they were in discord
In other words, Yan Wushi+ was showing signs of qi deviation
The more skilled a person was, the farther they could travel on the path of her pursuits they would have As a result, they would be her chance of qi deviation
If those talented grand to live the rest of their lives in peace, they could live for at least a few more decades with no proble martial arts would be a punishment worse than death And when people reached the state where they stood, a step further was as difficult as cli up to the sky Any little slip-up could easily lead to a qi deviation and even threaten their lives
Actually, Shen Qiao had discovered the probleo
The difference between the Demonic Core and the Daoist Core was rooted in the different path each of them took Like black and white, sky and earth, their ways never crossed each other In thousands of years, no one ever tried to reatest martial artist of the Demonic Sects had never done it However, Yan Wushi+'s personality had decided that he would never stop pursuing the Way of martial arts What he wanted to do was deemed unachievable by others, but he just had to do it Therefore, after ten years of Closed Door Meditation, not only did he finish studying all , he even tried to use this inner qi to build a new foundation for himself——the Daoist Core However, no matter hoerful a person was, they could have one and only one set of foundation within them But Yan Wushi+ wanted to incorporate both the De a new Daoist Core while still retaining the Demonic one
Of course, this was impossible How could a person have the Daoist Core and the Demonic Core coexist within them at the same time? Therefore, in those ten years, Yan Wushi+ did not succeed Hishie, but he still couldn't conquer this probleer inside hiainst Ruyan Kehui today, both of theer was triggered all of a sudden
Shen Qiao frowned deeply He tried to push his inner qi into Yan Wushi+'s body, but there see it Not only did it refuse to accept Shen Qiao's inner qi, it even bit back with a flux of icy coldness which coursed its way recklessly through Shen Qiao's body and soon traveled through all of Shen Qiao's htly He had no choice but to let go of the other person's hand and turn to hih meditation in an attempt to melt the cold
The moon was cold and deserted Deep inside theof owls made the space appear even more empty and quiet A sense of desolation pierced deeply into people's bones Not even a trace of the pleasant cool of early summer could be found
Li Yue's torch had already burnt out Shen Qiao stood up and walked towards him He wanted to see if he could find , I've been waiting outside for so long, yet you didn't even invite irl at all!” He heard sory, half-pleased face appeared outside the cave
Shen Qiao was not surprised by it, and neither did he answer
Bai Rong strolled in unabashed and said s that Sect Master Yan would wake up Shen-Lang, let's ly, so you didn't want to let hiive me the chance instead?”
Shen Qiao said, ”No”
Bai Rong was slightly surprised and at the sa, ”I haven't even finished yet, why are you already rejecting me?”
Shen Qiao fumbled around Li Yue's body and found two low of the fire iure htly The next second, she was already next to Yan Wushi+ She raised her hand and struck out a palht at the top of Yan Wushi+'s head However, it was blocked by Shen Qiao who had appeared without any notice The two of theh the Harmony Sect was famed mainly for its Enchantment and dual cultivation, it didn't mean that their martial arts were any inferior co was still young, yet she already had a good grasp of—— the ”Sixteen Steps to Heaven” —— when used together with her hand positions, becaes seemed almost impossible for anyone to defend
She knew Shen Qiao was not someone she could easily handle, therefore she intentionally launched a preemptive attack in hopes of a quick battle In the blink of an eye, her palm had already struck more than ten times On top of her her sly, erratic movements, it was almost as if she had attacked Shen Qiao froled as she attacked, ”Shen-lang, you sure are a crafty person The last tiering on purpose and that really scared h, you won't be able to trickThe ht noas but approxi's In other words, under nor to the other, or perhaps Bai Rong was even stronger than hi Water Fingering last tiht into his hands The sa was a sht have appeared to be gentle and all s to Shen Qiao, but when she actually needed tohad been observing the time from outside because she wasn't sure if Yan Wushi+ was actually suffering from a qi deviation However, thanks to the noises Li Yue stirred up, she was able to confiruess
If she wanted to kill Yan Wushi+, Shen Qiao would be her biggest obstacle
”Shen-Lang, weren't you feeling sorry for my situation in the Harmony Sect? If I can just kill Yan Wushi+, I'd be elie enemy for the Harmony Sect From then on, no one else in the Har you to do anything other than to stand back and watch Are you not willing to help 's watery eyes revealed an earnest and beseeching expression, yet the movement of her hands didn't slohatsoever
”Shen-Lang, do you really think that Yan Wushi+ has been kind to you? He saved you, but only because he considers you as a plaything to satisfy his sick hobby of toying around with people You are gentle and kind in nature; If so to repay them with ten But if he truly treats you well, why does he leave you alone, trapped in danger tirow feelings for the De to let me kill Yan Wushi+, I will also try my utmost to help you recover your martial arts and cli power in your own hands feels infinitely better than depending solely on someone else, don't you think so?”
