143 Chapter 143 The River Styx means Death (1/2)

The dust slowly dissipated and Mingjue and the other Mythic Masters were finally able to see the two people within.

Dou Lingzhen frowned right away; as a Martial Ancestor his eyes were as sharp as a hawk. When he gathered true qi within his eyes, he could see many miles away, just some dust wasn't able to block his vision.

First he was filled with doubt, and then in the next moment he swept across Zong Shou's face, as well as Chuxue's cat ears. His expression was one of loss. ”You are the Gantian Mountain Prince?”

That face was really similar, not long ago he had seen it in the drawings sent by Yunxia Mountain. A few breaths ago he was even planning to rob this person of his riches!

Who knew that just a short while later that person would be in front of him! He couldn't help but feel delight; wasn't this mine the best place to kill someone?

He was filled with many questions. The teen in front of him didn't have any internal energy or soul power, and as expected from the rumors, he had dual meridians and couldn't cultivate.

However, the spiritual sword that cut off Mingjue's arm had to be the workings of a spirit master who could at least control weapons from afar. Three stone puppets whose strength was comparable to nine-meridian Mythic Masters also needed one to be at least Out of Body Realm to activate.

He instinctively thought that it was controlled by the Tiger Cat race girl beside him. But observing closely, he noticed that she was just a Mythic Master at peak 9th rank. The soul power she gave out was really normal and shouldn't be at the Spirit Cultivation Realm.

So who was controlling that spiritual sword and the three puppets? A whole bunch of questions filled his mind.

Mingjue was also startled as he looked carefully at Zong Shou, his eyes burning like fire. When his line of sight swept past Chuxue, it lit up. Touching the wound at his left hand, his face couldn't help but twist, laughing evilly, ”Who cares who he is! Capture that man alive; I want to light him up and burn him for ten days to avenge the hatred of my broken hand. I also want that girl, coincidentally my Demon Spirit Flag lacks one blood slave!”

Dou Lingzhen came to his senses when he heard that, and couldn't help but laugh. Who cares who the ones controlling the spiritual sword and three stone puppets were, or what was going on, as long as they captured them?

A bright glow shining in his eyes, he casually threw out a hand sign. The twenty strong bows behind him instantly thrummed, twenty finger-sized arrows shot through the air. In just a breath, numerous sharp arrows filled with internal energy shot out.

Following closely behind were the two Xiantian Masters wearing heavy armor. Their movements were like spiritual cats roaming the mountains, swift and light, defending against the Black Wave Sword floating in mid air while also quickly getting close.

The arrows only hit the three stone puppets, and instantly stone shrapnel flew in all directions, ringing constantly from the impacts. The arrows brought with them huge power and forced the huge bodies of the puppets back.

Anxiety rose in Chuxue's eyes. However Zong Shou was still not reacting, his mind wandering off.

Seeing the score of arrows fly over, and the three puppets were riddled with holes, unable to block them all, only that stone piece was strong enough, but could only deflect less then half of the arrows. Chuxue immediately wanted to block in front of Zong Shou.

However just as she was about to move, a powerful hand grabbed onto her. Turning around her head, she saw Zong Shou smiling as he looked forwards. The hesitation in his eyes had disappeared and all that remained was helplessness, coldness, and determination.

Chuxue heaved a sigh of relief, but was also shocked. The feeling Zong Shou gave her now was really different. Before this, no matter when he scolded her or played with her, she would feel really close to him. Although he was smiling now, in her eyes he didn't seem human, like he was devoid of emotions and completely cold.

She felt a chill down her spine, the nearby temperature suddenly dropped. The wind in here was already cold, but nowhere near as what was sweeping into their bones, freezing the blood.

In the next moment she only heard Zong Shou say expressionlessly, ”Xue'er close your eyes!”

Chuxue was startled. At such a time she could die at any instant, how could she close her eyes? She didn't have the ability to fight blind!

Hesitating for a moment before doing so. Zong Shou's voice was exceptionally serious and solemn. No matter what, she would listen to his instructions, whether she lived or died.

Everything in front of her was dark, in her ears she only heard ”Keng” sounds. Chuxue tried to use her mind to deduce and differentiate and it was actually the sound of the Lightning Tooth Sword being pulled out of its sheath. This incomplete Spiritual Weapon was now wrapped by Little Gold, flying up in mid air and suspended in front of him.

Zong Shou's voice broke out once more, ”Remember, without me instructing you, definitely don't open your eyes...”

Chuxue was startled once more. What is happening, why can't she watch? Her heart sinking and some bad thoughts rose in her heart. If Young Master knew he had no chance of winning and decided to go all out, asking her not to see was to protect herself...

All of a sudden her heart was in a mess. Her eyelids twitched as she struggled.

At this moment, Zong Shou didn't have anything in his mind.

This sword that he sealed up was something he really didn't want to use. However, in today's circumstances he had no choice but to use it.

Sighing slightly, the yin cold energy around him became much thicker.

The moss around the two streams was withering quickly. A deathly aura wrapped his right hand.
