455 Scheming
The black sword seemed to have taken some kind of stimulant and became more and more excited. It did not even slash out sword Qi. It just relied on its blade and continuously slashed out bloody marks on the lizard’s body.
The entire place was deathly silent.
Everyone could not help but gasp.
At this moment, even Jiang Ming could not help but gasp a few times.
Ruthless!
It was too ruthless!
Even further away, Gu Chi, Rao Wuqing, and the others were dumbstruck.
Of course, they definitely did not know that a weapon spirit was born in the black sword, and this weapon spirit was extremely powerful. They subconsciously thought that all of this was Jiang Ming’s doing.
Was this kid that ruthless?
Even Rao Wuqing could not help but feel a chill run down his spine.
Gu Chi felt even more fortunate.
Fortunately, he did not offend this kid too much back then. Otherwise, just based on their actions, they would be dead meat.
Jiang Ming naturally noticed the change in everyone’s moods and knew that these people were afraid of him. He immediately held his forehead and did not know how to explain.
At the same time, people started whispering in the crowd.
“Isn’t this guy too ruthless? The strange lizard was about to escape. Why not just let it go? Don’t beat it to death like this!”
“As the saying goes, don’t chase a cornered enemy. It’s best to let it escape. Don’t force that strange lizard into a desperate situation and make it directly attack us ruthlessly.”
Huai Mei frowned as she pondered.
At this moment, Wu Hen said, “Master said that there is no such thing as not chasing a desperate enemy in this world. There are plenty of people who try to take advantage of his soft heart and kill him!”
Huai Mei was instantly speechless.
The corners of Ying Sha’s mouth twitched involuntarily. After a long while, he took a deep breath and slowly said, “I really hope that Master can kill this strange lizard. This thing is too terrifying. Even Rao Wuqing can’t deal with it. If it continues to stay and attack us, it will be impossible to defend ourselves against it!”
Ying Sha was very clear that if he did not kill such a powerful enemy in one blow, it would definitely have a strong desire for revenge after being angered. Once it hid in the dark and killed them, it would not be a joke.
Fortunately, they were still in the open.
Perhaps Zhang Shan was right.
Only Zhu An’an realized that there was a problem.
Was this man Ning Caichen, Zhang Shan, or Yan Chixia?
Was it possible that he was someone else entirely?
Jiang Ming did not know what everyone was thinking. He stared at the black sword at the moment and watched the latter chop the strange lizard into pieces. Then, he slowly exhaled.
However, thinking about it carefully, letting the black sword do what it liked did not seem like a bad idea.
Jiang Ming knew very well that what the black sword urgently needed now was to recover and replenish its power.
Therefore, was the reason why the black sword was so furious simply because he had lost his temper?
Definitely not!
The next moment, Jiang Ming observed the situation and finally confirmed his inner thoughts.
While the black sword slashed at the strange lizard, it also continuously absorbed its power. In the end, it turned into a pile of bones, and its flesh and blood were all devoured by the black sword.
That was great!
Jiang Ming’s eyes lit up. He could sense that the black sword’s power was constantly increasing at this moment. It was very likely that it would recover some of its power and memories in a short period of time.
This was a great thing!
One had to know that the black sword had been passed down from countless eras ago.
Perhaps that era was not good in other aspects, such as technology, but in terms of cultivation, it was definitely far superior to the present.
“Which of the experts I met back then did not possess terrifying power? Even in this era, it was definitely a top-notch existence. If the black sword recovered more of its memories, it would be of great benefit to my cultivation!”
The black sword quickly returned with a leisurely look on its face. Jiang Ming could not help but smile.
The black sword was shocked.
“Bro, what’s with your smile? Why do I feel numb all over when you look at me like that?”
The black sword was a little worried now. Was there something wrong with Jiang Ming?
“Let’s talk when we get back.”
Jiang Ming did not want to talk about this at this time. Therefore, he hid the black sword.
Then, Jiang Ming looked behind him and asked, “What are your plans now?”
Everyone looked at each other and did not make a sound. They just looked at Jiang Ming quietly.
This time, it was Jiang Ming’s turn to be a little scared.
“What are you looking at? Did I do something wrong?”
“No, Ning Caichen, you did not do anything wrong. It’s just that the way you controlled the flying sword to kill the strange lizard was too heroic.” Gu Chi spoke slowly, thinking that Zhang Shan seemed to be a ruthless person.
Could it be that the Flowerfruit Mountain was the place where these barbarians were born?
The corner of Jiang Ming’s mouth twitched slightly. He could not be bothered to dwell on this matter and said bluntly, “Alright, I plan to go deeper now. Holy Son Gu Chi, do you plan to go with me?”
Gu Chi was silent for a while, then shook his head and said, “Ning Caichen, I plan to choose another path! There are two paths here. One of them is a dead end, and the other is a way out. However, I don’t know which one is the way out. Therefore, I hope that you and I can each explore a path. No matter who survives in the end, there’s no need to care. After all, we’re comrades, aren’t we?”
Holy Son Gu Chi’s words were extremely poetic.
It was as if he did not care about his life.
If it were any other hothead, they would probably be extremely touched.
Unfortunately, Jiang Ming was not a fool.
He glanced at Holy Son Gu Chi and chuckled. “Since you’ve said so, then fine, go ahead.”
“Idiot! He has brute force. However, his brain is extremely simple! If he dies here, it will be a great thing for me. After all, if enough geniuses and strong people die, the pressure on me will naturally be reduced!”
Gu Chi’s expression did not change on the surface. However, he was actually sneering in his heart, as if he was mocking the guy in front of him.
Unbeknownst to him, Jiang Ming was also sneering in his heart.
He knew that Gu Chi must have chosen the path of survival and was deliberately trying to kill him.
How ridiculous!
