The elders often said: if a weapon had been stained with too much blood, it would become a lethal weapon As a lethal weapon was used to coeful emotions were bound to accumulate in it

There are thousands of lethal weapons in the world, each of them malicious in their oay But none of the such an indelible impression in people's hearts the way the ‘Sword of Miserable Death' did

TheQian could alh he hadn't reached Concretion, his spine turning numb from the pain At the saendary sword and a wooden sword, the speed at which they drained one's energy also differed greatly As Cheng Qian wielded Shuangren, for the first time in his life, he experienced how it felt for his ability to fall short of his wishes

The masked men never expected a little brat to be so troublesons that outsiders didn't understand and i Qian

Cheng Qian exhaled slowly, feeling as if he'd breathed out a ren seemed to have permeated his entire body, that even his innards had cooled

Seven to eight sword auras ca theaps to avoid the attacks He'd have to thank Zhang Dasen, who kept stirring up trouble with hi ability to this point

While avoiding the attacks, Cheng Qian hadand the others But right when it see, his entire body suddenly staggered, as if he'd received a heavy hit One of the maskedhis left shoulder

But Cheng Qian had no space ofin his head — it was the Puppet Char Just now, he'd sensed clearly that the Qi in the Puppet Charm had dispersed The Puppet Charm was one of the Seven Great Charht strokes, how could the Qi contained within in disperse so easily? Xueqing must have encountered a mortal threat

Then he… was he still alive?

He was just a Daoist child who'd gone out all by hi valuable on his person, and his teentle What kind of person would want to harm hietting in his way?

If it was intentional, what about last year, when the Eldest shi+xiong sent Xiao-Yue'er to deliver a letter back home? There was still no reply until noas the letter not delivered, or…

Also… What about Fuyao Mountain?

For adespite his usual cal his mind in this inopportune tiht went blurry and he lost his balance Before he could figure things out, blood had risen up his throat

“Xiao-Qian!”

Li Yun see Qian abruptly started and struggled to dodge therang in his ears At thisQian's back had been drenched in cold sweat Mind barely present, he turned his eyes to his Eldest shi+xiong in the air With just one glance, Cheng Qian could tell that he was also struggling hard — with enough numbers, even ants could kill an elephant Moreover, none of theseprobably hadn't reached Concretion for long His ability to stand so steadily on his sword right now ht be an exhibition of abnormal ability due to the circu cut down by thereally had his hands full, unable to s at once Each time one of the clones were killed, his face would pale further He also had to constantly keep his shi+di's safety in ain a thousand eyes and li Qian didn't want to distract him, so he steeled himself and sed the metallic taste in his throat

This was a terrible feeling Cheng Qian's face turned ashen instantly, sword alren seemed like it could sense his weakness too, as it quickly showed signs of turning on hi Qian so on an ancient tumultuous sea The waters in front of him seemed like they'd come fro right into his bones, the silence so palpable it was deafening A strange vengeful fury suddenly rose in his chest — Why did a weapon that should've been legendary have to be falsely accused by the people? Why enius with extraordinary talent carry the infamy of the ancestors and successors?

Suddenly, a child's voice rang out from behind him, “Bad people! Stab the bad people! Don't bullyQian's ear With a crisp sound, a Soul-Searching Needle fleard one of the masked men The maskedCheng Qian's chest, but because of the Soul-Searching Needle, theQian's skin was unharasped for breath He realized that his core had been drained because of Shuangren turning on hi was, he couldn't just toss this sword away, because the masked men had no mercy More andQian didn't turn around, but when he reached back, his hand found Shuikeng's head without ht, save up your Soul-Searching Needles”

The boat can't leave, if it really can't be helped… Cheng Qian raised his face to look at Yan Zhenght as well let Eldest shi+xiong bring this little one to break through the siege on his sword

Bringing Shuikeng out was already difficult for Yan Zheng Qian could figure things out, he suddenly heard Li Yun's surprised exclai on his shile keeping up so many clones, and abruptly fell from the air Li Yun hurriedlyan invisible net above the ground At least their Sect Leader got to avoid landing on his face

Yan Zhenghtly For a th to stand

Cheng Qian was forced to act again He leapt into the air with Han Yuan's shoulder as a step, Shuangren cutting a swift and fierce arch With this legendary lethal weapon's chilling Qi, he forced the masked men to retreat His limbs felt like they had been pricked by countless needles, as if his core had been exhausted by char Qian knew, this hly drained

But in this moment, even if he had been drained, could he retreat?

The taste of iron filled Cheng Qian's round, unconcerned with breaking the faren sent hiain, but before he could finish carrying out the sword technique, he could no longer keephis body dispersed Countless weapons pressed down on Shuangren, as if trying to tear him to shreds

It was too late for the others to save hiht then, soe of energy swept forth, powerful yet gentle, effortlessly cancelling out the attacks toward Cheng Qian in one fell shile not har Qian's body suddenly felt light as he fell Yan Zheng had no idea how he'd reached hi Qian, Yan Zheng heavily, as if his insides were about to burst

Cheng Qian lost consciousness for a brief aze finally regained focus, he found that theup the port seee space cleared up in theout in pain not too far away, unable to stand, while others had fallen into the sea

At the sa onto Shuangren tightly, grip not loosening even on the verge of death

Cheng Qian was about to cli no roo Qian could hear Yan Zheng on the ground, hands tre Qian opened his eyes did Yan Zheng in a low voice, “Don'ton the side She probably hadn'tHer face seeht have been wounded too

But even so, when she saw their rescuer, she didn't see even reeted in a low voice, “Island Lord”

Zhou Hanzheng looked at her coldly, probably thinking that he'd ree But when he turned around, his face returned to its pleasant look Hethe Sansi Fan in his hand slowly and cupped his fist with his other hand in greeting toward the Island Lord, as standing on a gigantic rock, “Greetings to the Island Lord”

The Island Lord didn't even spare hi the kids here I'veWith her eyes, she signaled for Yan Zheng to follow her, and went up the stone steps behind the large rock

Cheng Qian clenched his teeth He was about to stand with his Eldest shi+xiong's shoulder for support, but Yan Zhengain

And then he realized that he was hovering inhad picked hiinally muddled mind was instantly shocked awake Like a puppy that had fallen fro's shoulder in panic, worried that his ‘delicate' shi+xiong would drop him He probably wouldn't die from the fall, but there was the question of what he would land on

Yan Zheng had almost been scared to death thanks to hiitated as he said sternly, “Stay still!”

Cheng Qian fell silent and went stiff as a rock, allowing Yan Zheng to move him as he pleased

The Island Lord's stern face softened slightly After looking at Yan Zheng Qian's sword
