Chapter 40: A Stunning Revelation

  But just as the flying bird was half-cooked, Wang Fei felt a faint whistling sound coming from behind him.

  He changed color, waved his sleeve, the cold wind blew out the fire, and then covered up the traces of burning with mud and dry branches, disguising it as if no one had been there.

  King Fei's toes touched the ground, and he unfolded his light step technique, easily rising more than ten meters high. He flipped over and jumped onto a branch that protruded horizontally from a stone wall on the side of the mountain path, retracted his spiritual energy, and assumed a turtle-like stance.

  Just after doing all this, three escaping lights appeared in the depths of the small path, rushing over, and behind the escaping light, there were two white escaping lights, chasing closely.

  Suddenly, one of the two white lights on the left suddenly shot out a blue light, which instantly attacked the three lights in front.

  A loud rumble, blue light enveloped the three escaping lights, emitting a dull hum, and the three escaping lights exploded with a bang, revealing the three figures inside.

  Three people appeared, except for the old man in the middle whose face was somewhat pale, the other two spat out a mouthful of blood, severely injured and seemingly seriously hurt.

  At this moment, two flashes of light also chased after him from behind, and with a rustling sound, the two people inside appeared, who were none other than the Xu brothers.

  Hiding on the branches of the stone wall, Wang Fei's eyes scanned and was shocked. Among the five of them, the two who came later were Ling Yu 12th layer and Ling Yu 9th layer, both late-stage cultivators. In contrast, the three people opposite, except for the old man who was Ling Yu 11th layer, the others were only mid-stage cultivators of the 5th or 6th layer. This comparison revealed the advantage and disadvantage.

  These people Wang Fei did not know, can naturally leave directly, but unfortunately, at present cannot leave, only can quietly observe the changes.

  On the small path, three injured old men and the Xu brothers stood facing each other.

  "Your Xianmeng Sect is a prestigious sect, why are you pursuing us relentlessly?"

  The young woman in her early twenties beside the old man slightly adjusted her breath and restored some color to her face, and said to the Xu brothers in front of her with a cold expression.

  Her words were tinged with a hint of pleading.

  "Jokes, you've already torn your face off, how can you bear to let us go?" Xu Cong was a garrulous person, seeing that they were seriously injured, he knew that victory was within his grasp, and slowly said, "If it weren't for the next East Bank Wilderness quota, we would be so bored as to provide you with cultivation resources, and even give out spiritual instruments and high-level foundation-building techniques?"

  "Hmph, the eastern suburbs are desolate and barren, with the protection of the primordial spirit's intention of the old ancestor Huashen. Only cultivators from the State of Yan have ever been able to enter, and even then, only those who have reached the foundation-building stage. You'd better not harbor any illusions!" The young man heard Xu Cong's words, his eyes flashing with a cold smile despite the danger in front of him.

  Dongtan wilderness, Huashen old ancestor?

  Wang Fei was shocked upon hearing this, never expecting that a small country like Yan would have an alchemist.

  At the same time Wang Fei was shocked, Xu Cong and Xu Ming exchanged a glance, calmly saying: "This is not for you to worry about, just obediently go on your way!"

  As soon as the voice fell, Xu Ming raised one hand, and with a flick of his wrist, a golden light appeared in his palm. In an instant, countless tiny flying needles emerged. Next, Xu Ming let out a low shout, and those golden small needles shot out immediately, like a rain of arrows, falling towards the three old men opposite him.

  "You scoundrel, do you really think that Jingxian Valley is a weak and vulnerable sect that can be bullied by anyone?"

  The old man saw that his opponent was unscrupulous and uncontrollable, so he couldn't help but get angry. He turned his hand over and grabbed it, producing a white talisman, from which he sprayed out a mouthful of cloud energy.

  The talisman quickly changed, turning into a white light shield that blocked in front of him. At the same time, the small needle was approaching and hit the white light shield, making a "ding ding ding" sound.

  "Mid-to-high-level talisman?"

  Xu Cong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he whispered, "No need to say more." He drew out the top-grade flying sword Snowlight Sword from the Lingzhu and infused it with a thread of spiritual energy.

  In an instant, the flying sword's spiritual light burst forth, emitting a cold and eerie aura. Following Xu Cong's pointing finger, the flying sword rotated in a circle before rapidly shooting towards the white light shield.

  So fast that it makes one's tongue stumble.

  Wang Fei hid among the branches, seeing that flying sword was so fast, and he was secretly shocked. The top-grade artifact was indeed extraordinary.

  Bang! The flying sword struck the light shield, and the light shield immediately showed cracks, making a hissing sound. The three old men behind him, who had just recovered their complexion, changed color in an instant.

  The only talisman they had used to escape was gone, and now it was impossible to get out of the Xu brothers' sight. What to do?

  Unwilling to give up, the old man gave a signal with his eyes to the man and woman behind him. The two immediately mobilized half of their spiritual power, took out their respective magical instruments, a bracelet and a flying sword.

  The two people's magic tools were both low-grade magic tools, and it was clear that they couldn't compare to Xu Cong's top-grade magic tool. They could only control their magic tools and barely hold on.

  "Hmph, a cornered beast will still fight back. I originally wanted you all to die in peace, but it seems you yourselves want to miss this opportunity."

  Even Xu Ming, who didn't like to talk, couldn't help but sneer at the three old men who still wanted to fight him. Hadn't they already thoroughly lost?

  Then, Xu Ming also added his strength, pouring spiritual energy into the Snowlight Sword.

  In an instant, Snowlight Sword emitted a clear hum, its light bursting forth, and the sword tip revealed a hint of chill. It stabbed towards the white light shield.

  "Crack!"

  A huge crack appeared on the white light shield. A faint spiritual energy drifted out.

  Immediately afterwards, there were several more sounds, and on the light shield, cracks like turtle shells appeared, and they kept increasing in number.

  Finally, the light shield could no longer withstand the flying sword's penetration and exploded with a loud bang, sending out a ripple that sent the three elderly men behind it flying.

  Xu Cong coldly smiled and took this opportunity to point at the flying sword once again. The Snowy Light Sword shone with a million rays of light, chasing after it in pursuit.

  The three old men saw this, their faces changed greatly, and they were extremely terrified in their hearts. The three of them joined forces, hastily releasing all their spiritual power, casting their respective spells to try to block the flying sword's approach.

  In an instant, flames and lightning flashed, rendering the night sky exceptionally bright. The two intertwined into a web-like pattern, attempting to ensnare Snowlight Sword within. However, that flying sword was razor-sharp, and with a "whoosh" sound, it pierced through the spell-woven net, passing straight through.

  "Ah!"

  Suddenly, a mournful cry rang out. The young man on the left was immediately pierced by a flying sword, and his intense pain caused his pupils to dilate in an unbearable sight. The woman beside him trembled all over, her face gloomy.

  Easily and effortlessly, he killed a mid-term cultivator of the Lingyue Sect!

  Such means make people feel chilled.

  Wang Fei hid on the branch, thinking secretly in his heart, if he were to fight against the Xu brothers, how much chance of winning would he have.

  Of course, he wouldn't foolishly do good deeds without a plan, but if something unexpected happens and the other party discovers him unprepared, wouldn't that be a tragic death?

  Just as Wang Fei was pondering, the battle below had already ended. With Ling Yu's 12th layer plus a Ling Yu 9th layer, and an extreme-quality magic artifact, the three old men were bound to lose without a doubt.

  The old man defeated them in battle. Xu Cong took out a golden rope and tied them up, looking like he didn't want to take their lives directly.
