Chapter 117: Earth Sword

  His hand stretched out, reaching for Jiang Feng, and Jiang Feng's body was instantly unable to move. His entire body slid towards the person sitting there. After grabbing Jiang Feng, the person's gaunt face leaned in close to Jiang Feng's neck, mouth open wide.

  Jiang Feng, who was unable to move, broke out in a cold sweat, with only one thought in his mind: he was done for. Lan Wu appeared beside Jiang Feng at this moment, swinging the yellow spring sharp gold sword in her hand towards the person holding Jiang Feng.

  The sword had not yet fallen, but Lan Wu was already frozen in mid-air. The person holding Jiang Feng's mouth was also close to Jiang Feng's neck. Just as Jiang Feng was certain that he would be bitten by a vampire and have his arteries sucked dry, the person holding Jiang Feng took a long, deep breath.

  The open mouth did not bite Jiang Feng, but took a big breath. After taking several deep breaths, the person holding Jiang Feng had an intoxicated expression. Such an expression was like that of a seasoned smoker who had been in a smoke-free place for hours and suddenly got to smoke a cigarette.

  "The light of the Great Way that was produced before its return, Heaven won't destroy me." The person holding Jiang Feng spoke after being in a daze.

  He held Jiang Feng's hand and slowly let go. The man closed his eyes, taking deep breaths, as if he was still inhaling. At first, Jiang Feng didn't know what scent on his body would make the man so infatuated. After hearing the Great Dao's light, Jiang Feng knew what the man was smelling.

  The lotus dance was fixed in mid-air, and her body could move again. After it fell to the ground, she immediately grabbed Jiang Feng and retreated backwards. When the two of them had withdrawn five or six meters, the seated person stretched out his hand once more and pulled Jiang Feng back over.

  "This Buddha has no interest in harming you, he just needs the light of the Great Way on your body. You need to get a bit closer to me, do you understand?" said the person sitting down.

  Jiang Feng hastily nodded and said: "Understood, understood. If you like that Da Dao's light, then take it all away, I don't mind."

  Jiang Feng thought to himself, since that so-called "Taoist Light" entered his body, he had searched every nook and cranny of his entire body, but couldn't find the Taoist Light anywhere, nor did he know what use it was. Now someone wanted it, just let them take it then. As long as they didn't harm him, that's all that mattered.

  The person sitting down didn't say a word, their head drooping once again. Jiang Feng and Lan Wu stood beside the person, occasionally exchanging glances with each other, both of them looking like they had no idea what to do.

  "Be careful yourself, don't talk nonsense, and don't stir up trouble for no reason. I'll be back first." Lan Wu said, then disappeared without a trace.

  "Don't go, stay with me for a while." Jiang Feng hastily called out. But Lan Wu didn't respond at all. Jiang Feng muttered to himself in the new room, saying: "Still pretending to be a bodyguard, this is too unprofessional. And do I look like someone who looks for trouble?"

  Looking at the person sitting there, Jiang Feng slowly looked away to other places. The surroundings were still pitch black, and it was impossible to see what was here. Nor could he hear any other sounds. Jiang Feng tried very hard to look for a while, but still didn't discover anything.

  After being quiet for nearly twenty minutes, Jiang Feng couldn't bear it anymore. He then said to the man: "Senior, I have a friend who fell down with me, can I go back and let her know that I'm safe?"

  He repeated himself several times, his voice getting softer with each repetition, but the person sitting there still didn't respond to Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng then tentatively said: "If you don't say anything, I'll take it as your consent. I'll go report my safety and come back. I'm a man of my word, no need to worry that I'll run away."

  As he spoke, Jiang Feng slowly backed away. After retreating several steps, he turned around and ran in the direction he came from. After running a few more steps, he stopped again to look back, finding that the seated person had not made any movement, only then did he continue running.

  Jiang Feng was also uncertain about the direction he was heading, whether it was the same as when he came. It was pitch black here, and there was no sound at all, making it impossible to judge. After running for dozens of meters, Jiang Feng saw Huang Shu with his own firelight just two meters away.

  "Are you okay? Is there anything wrong ahead?" Huang Shu asked after seeing Jiang Feng.

  "There's someone, a very formidable person. We're probably in trouble," said Jiang Feng.

  "What can I do? I'm unable to move now and can't help." Huang Shufang said.

  Jiang Feng thought, even if you can move, it's useless, and it's better to be a statue here. But thinking carefully, Huang Shufen being fixed here would indeed be uncomfortable, at least she should be able to move. Otherwise, in case of danger, she wouldn't be able to run away. As Jiang Feng thought about this, his gaze towards Huang Shufen changed slightly. Huang Shufen felt a chill on her back as she looked into Jiang Feng's eyes.

  As Jiang Feng revealed a hint of a sly smile, he suddenly reined it in and his expression turned serious.

  "You wait, I'll go and discuss with that person." Jiang Feng threw down this sentence and turned to run away. After a while, Huang Shu discovered that her body could move again. After moving around for a bit, a flame appeared on her palm, and she was about to head in the direction Jiang Feng had gone.

  Jiang Feng ran back at this time and saw Huang Shu female walking over, so he quickly said: "Don't move, whatever you do don't move. Just stay here."

  "Then you're alone, isn't it very dangerous? Let me go with you." Huang Shu said.

  "If you were with me and could be of use, would I have brought you along? You just stay here and rest." Jiang Feng said as he was about to leave.

  "Wait a minute. What was that look you just gave me?" Huang Shu asked.

  Jiang Feng, who had just turned around, was standing somewhere. After slowly turning his head and revealing a silly smile, he said: "I'll teach you a lesson, next time you see someone looking at you with the same gaze as I did just now, beat him up. Because that person has ulterior motives." After finishing speaking, he quickly ran away.

  Huang Shu Nu was both angry and anxious, she wasn't stupid, so naturally she knew what Jiang Feng meant. But now wasn't the time to think too much. After thinking for a moment, she still decided to follow Jiang Feng. However, just as they took three steps forward, they bumped into an invisible wall. Reaching out to touch it, there was something blocking their way. After circling around the original spot in a small circle, Huang Shu Nu gave up because her available space for movement was only six paces in diameter.

  "Is the master a high-ranking monk in Buddhism?"

  "How long has the master been here?"

  "Is anyone else here?"

  "Should I give you an old shoulder massage?"

  "Would you like me to tell you an old joke?"

  "Shall I have my personal bodyguard sing a little tune for the master?"

  "Give some reaction."

  "Don't ignore me..."

  Chattered on and on, but the person sitting there didn't pay any attention to Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng's mouth was dry and his tongue was parched, so he could only give up.

  "Either kill or skin, at least give a word, saying nothing makes people very scared." Jiang Feng muttered to himself while taking out his wine pouch and drinking a mouthful of wine to moisten his throat.

  As Jiang Feng took a sip, the person sitting suddenly lifted their head and looked at Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng, who was about to take a second sip, froze in place. His eyes glanced down at his wine pouch, realizing he had gotten himself into trouble.

  "Would you like a sip?" Jiang Feng said, handing over the wine pouch. But that person didn't take Jiang Feng's wine pouch and was still staring at him, making Jiang Feng feel uneasy.

  After a moment of silence, the man stretched out his left hand and pulled open some of the clothes on his chest. On his chest, a hilt was exposed. Jiang Feng looked over and found that there was only one sword guard on the man's chest - the part at the top of the hilt where the sword tassel was strung.

  He leaned back and looked at the man's back, but Jiang Feng didn't see any other part of the sword on his back, not even a bulge in his clothes.

  As Jiang Feng straightened his body and looked at the person's chest again, the person spoke up: "Trade your Ice Fire Wine."

  Jiang Feng thought, never mind the exchange, you just want it for free, I'll give it to you anyway. With a stiff smile on his face, as he handed over the wine pouch, that person didn't even take the wine pouch from Jiang Feng's hand, but was staring at him instead.

  "Gourd." The man spat out two words.

  "What's going on?" Jiang Feng had a look of confusion on his face. But his acting skills were really bad, not convincing at all.

  That person didn't say a word, just staring at Jiang Feng. Jiang Feng's hand holding the wine pouch slowly withdrew. His eyes avoided that person's gaze. But even without looking at that person, Jiang Feng could still clearly feel that he was being stared at.

  After two or three minutes of silence, Jiang Feng took out the Ice and Fire Gourd with a sorrowful face. He handed it over reluctantly while looking at that person with a pitiful expression.

  The ice and fire calabaza had been handed over, but that person didn't take it at all, still staring at Jiang Feng. Seeing that the other party didn't accept it, Jiang Feng smiled and withdrew his hand. But as soon as he withdrew his hand, Jiang Feng's face turned into a crying expression. Because he thought of something.

  "Save some, there's not much left." Jiang Feng said after removing the stopper. In fact, he had no idea how much was left in the gourd and only said so because he couldn't bear to part with it.

  This time, the man took the gourd and tilted his head to drink. Watching the man's Adam's apple move up and down, Jiang Feng felt a pang in her heart. Inwardly, she was silently cursing him, wishing he would choke to death.

  This person drank for a longer time than the one they met at Zei Wang Mu. After he put down the gourd, Jiang Feng anxiously watched him. When the other person threw the gourd over, Jiang Feng hastily shook it to see if there was still any water sound.

  When he heard the sound, Jiang Feng let out a breath of relief. At this time, the person in front of him grabbed something from his chest and threw it over. Jiang Feng stretched out his hand to catch it. As soon as he caught the thing that was thrown over, Jiang Feng's entire body flew backward. Until he flew into the darkness and hit an invisible wall, he finally stopped.

  What he grasped in his hand was a small hilt of a sword. The hilt emitted a powerful sword energy, and Jiang Feng's entire hand became blood-soaked. Lan Wu appeared beside Jiang Feng, stretched out her hands and pressed them against Jiang Feng's hand holding the hilt. But before she could use any force, Lan Wu was blown away by a strong sword energy.

  "Quickly use the Ghost Sword." Lan Wu shouted as she was blown away.
