Chapter 73: The Power of the Talisman

  Po Jun Hou gave Jiang Shan three talismans: the Vajra Canopy Talisman, the Copper Head Iron Arm Talisman, and the Sharp Edge Talisman. The duration of these three talismans was longest for the Vajra Canopy Talisman, but it only lasted for more than 500 breaths. The latter two talismans had much shorter durations, lasting only 300 breaths.

  This is Jiang Shan's last trump card. Just now, in the chaos of Er Tang, he didn't dare to use it, but now he can't not use it. Third Master can't die, and he hasn't lived enough yet. In order to get rid of Li Wenjun, he can only use up all three precious talismans at once. As for how to complete the task of breaking the Marquis's promise after using up the three talismans, he can only think of another way.

  Jiang Shan slapped the copper-headed iron arm symbol onto himself, and a "Lin" character burst out of his mouth. Immediately after, he slapped the sharp symbol onto Kuo Sword, and in an instant, the two symbols transformed into two thin layers of light film that quickly spread across Jiang Shan's body and the surface of Kuo Sword, enveloping both him and the sword completely in the blink of an eye.

  Jiang Shan patted her own arm, making a loud noise, as if she had struck an iron pillar. Jiang Shan was overjoyed and raised the broadsword, pointing at Li Wenjun, saying: "Those who refuse to surrender to Master Hou will die."

  Li Wenjun was always on his guard, and he had a very limited understanding of the talisman. He only knew that it was powerful, and if Jiang Xue took out an overly powerful talisman, he would have to quickly find an opportunity to slip away. He wouldn't stubbornly insist on fighting Jiang Xue head-on; instead, he would wait until the effects of the talisman wore off before coming back to deal with them, which would be a much more efficient use of his time and energy.

  Jiang Xuan used two more talismans again, and Li Wenjun sneered and said: "I won't accompany you guys anymore, let's go."

  Jiang Shan was about to go crazy, he had used up such a precious talisman, if Li Wenjun were to escape, wouldn't he have lost both his wife and his soldiers, getting nothing in return. If this were the business world, he would be left with only one pair of underwear, it's not right to bully people like this.

  "Want to leave? No way. Li Wenjun, take my sword." Jiang Shan's toes touched the ground, like a shooting star, rapidly rushing towards Li Wenjun. In the martial arts world, he was a famous and renowned master, his lightness skill was top-notch, in terms of speed, not one bit inferior to Li Wenjun.

  However, qinggong can make people run fast, but it doesn't necessarily allow people to fly high enough. Li Wenjun made up his mind not to compete with Jiang Shan head-on, he just wanted to wait for the effect of Fu Miao's medicine to wear off before competing with Jiang Shan again.

  As Jiang Shan rushed over, Li Wenjun employed his light body technique and easily dodged the threat. He took a deep breath and chased after the gunmen, knife-wielding men, and bailiffs who had not yet escaped from the county yamen. These people were either Jiang Shan's or Wu Qi's subordinates, and they had just surrounded and beaten him with great enthusiasm; now it was time for them to return the favor.

  Li Wenjun's speed was extremely fast, but those gunmen and the like had never practiced qinggong before. At this moment, they could only escape from the second hall, and at most, they could circle around the main hall. Just as they were about to rush out of the county yamen, Li Wenjun, the killing god, caught up with them. The dragon-headed goose feather knife flashed a few cold lights in the dark night sky, and several escaping officials were cut down to the ground.

  Jiang Shan was hot on Li Wenjun's heels, seeing how recklessly he was chopping down his subordinates. He was furious and shouted loudly: "Li Wenjun, as a cultivator, you're bullying ordinary people, do you still want to save face? If you have the ability, come and fight me, I'll accompany you in a fierce battle of 800 rounds."

  Li Wenjun pretended not to hear, and then cut down several of Jiang Xuan's subordinates in a row. Just as he was about to chase after the others, he found that San Gongzi had actually crawled out from under the shield, with half his body exposed. Li Wenjun was overjoyed, like a sparrow hawk, and made a swift turn in mid-air, pouncing towards San Gongzi.

  Jiang Shan's face turned green with rage, he was almost suffocated by the Third Young Master's foolishness. What kind of timing is this? How can the Third Young Master still only know how to cause trouble?

  In his heart, he almost hated the Third Master to death, but Jiang Xue still couldn't not save him. He shouted loudly: "Third Master, quickly hide back into the shield! Only inside will you be safe."

  The third master turned his head and saw Li Wenjun pouncing on him like a wolf, scaring him into hastily shrinking back.

  Li Wenjun saw no opportunity to take advantage of, relying on his agile and nimble body, slightly borrowing force, in mid-air a turn, and chased after others to kill.

  At this moment, there are not many people who can be killed by Li Wenjun. Just now in the second hall, it was crowded and he could kill people like chopping vegetables. Now almost everyone has escaped from the second hall and can run in different directions. Li Wenjun let Jiang Shan block for a while, delaying some time. As long as they are clever, they have all run to places relatively far away from the second hall. Unless Li Wenjun is willing to abandon San Gongzi and Jiang Shan, it will be difficult for him to take out time specifically to kill them.

  After a moment, Li Wenjun had no one left to kill and refocused his attention on Jiang Shan who had been eating dust behind him. For such a long time, Jiang Shan hadn't taken out more talismans, which could be inferred that the possibility of Jiang Shan having more talismans was relatively small. Otherwise, Jiang Shan wouldn't have been so anxious to fight him. It seemed that Jiang Shan's plan was to settle everything with one battle, as long as he killed Li Wenjun, nothing else mattered.

  Li Wenjun sneered, thinking that Jiang Shan wanted to kill him, but he also wanted to kill Jiang Shan. Jiang Shan relied on a few talismans and wanted to confront him head-on, but Li Wenjun didn't believe it. He had suffered so much and been wronged so many times, yet he had only reached the second layer of Qi Refining. How could he possibly lose to Jiang Shan?

  Of course, perhaps waiting for the effect of the talisman to expire is the most time-saving and labor-saving method. But what if Jiang Xue still has more Golden Shield Talismans? What should he do then? Should he continue to follow Jiang Xue and exhaust himself?

  Delay breeds variation. As time drags on, who knows what variables will be added. Just like now, he killed Wu Qi and made a huge vendetta with Wu Xue Mei and Wu Yi Ming siblings. Following common sense, they should have been eliminated together with the roots cut off, but earlier when he was searching for them, he didn't find the sister and brother.

  That's the variable. Li Wenjun didn't want any more variables to appear, he had to kill San Gongzi and Jiang Shan, these two people were the real culprits, couldn't let them go.

  Li Wenjun stopped in his tracks and turned around, looking at Jiang Shan with a calm expression.

  Jiang Shan was overjoyed and said: "Li Wenjun, are you willing to face me like a man? Good, I'll behead you right now."

  His broadsword in his hand thrust straight at Li Wenjun with a force that could pierce through the yellow dragon.

  Li Wenjun waved his hand, and a sharp blade flew out of the dragon-headed goose feather knife, chopping towards Jiang Shan.

  Jiang Shan seemed to have not seen the knife's edge at all, and the broadsword didn't even change direction.

  With a "pu" sound, the blade chopped down onto the broad sword's broken tip.

  Li Wenjun's face changed slightly, his eyes narrowing...
