Chapter 429: 429, [Sir Borrowing Sword] (Asking for double monthly tickets!)
The Second Priest grunted, extending his hand to seal a scarlet insignia, stopping his own bleeding.
He couldn’t believe that the slender Taoist nun in front of him hadn’t used her full strength just yet!
It had been said before that Gu Xiaoman was like a deep pond.
The ripples in the deep pond could be caused by external or internal forces.
If it is an external force, it would be relatively easy.
A fallen leaf landing on the water can cause ripples.
But what if it is from the bottom of the pond?
Even though the surface only shows gentle waves, beneath it is a terrifying sight.
The loose Daoist robe of the slender nun fluttered in the wind, and the surrounding temperature dropped drastically in an instant.
The sky seemed to have darkened a bit.
It was a hot summer day, yet it felt like an overcast day.
The Taoist nun’s aura is inherently cold, now it had an even colder intent.
The Second Priest gritted his teeth and quickly made his decision.
His figure rapidly moved backward, and with his remaining left hand waiving in the air, chanting, an array was drawn in the air.
The next moment, his figure vanished.
The Fire Man, who was standing in front of Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei, also disappeared at this instant.
The Second Priest was reusing his old trick in an attempt to switch places with the Fire Man by using the secret technique of instantaneous exchange.
Once he exchanges places with the Fire Man, he could easily kill the Cat Demon, abduct Lu Xun, and then try to escape from this place.
To be precise, for Lu Xun and the others, the current situation seems to have not changed at all.
The Fire Man is still there, and so is the Second Priest.
Because this secret technique is just too fast, it is almost as if nothing has happened, as swift as teleporting.
But in the eyes of Gu Xiaoman, everything has a trace.
Her wooden sword flew straight toward the distance.
Just like its owner, the sword is extremely reserved. However, it directly interrupted the secret technique.
—She found the intersecting point at which the clone and the original body were about to swap!
With one stab of the wooden sword, a loud bang was heard, and two figures suddenly flew out of the air!
It was the Second Priest and the Fire Man who were in the process of swapping.
To Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei, the scene was extremely bizarre.
One moment the Fire Man was still here, and the next moment it was flying out into the sky with the Second Priest!
The Second Priest himself was powerful, his realm was not inferior to Gu Xiaoman’s, so this sword couldn’t kill him directly.
But it was different for the Fire Man.
He was just an incomplete clone, in front of Gu Xiaoman’s wooden sword, he was so weak.
With just one sword, the Fire Man instantly dispersed into red light spots, broken by the Second Sister herself.
The wooden sword spun in the air, another Sword Qi was generated, and completely annihilated the dark red light spots!
Blood dripped from the corner of the Second Priest’s mouth, who lost an arm, and looked extremely in a state of disarray.
He had previously mocked “The Sword Qi is Near”, saying that a sword is just a sword, lacking some techniques.
But now, he was facing a female Sword Cultivator.
When she used her sword, she had her own techniques, and they were pretty impressive!
The Second Priest looked into the cold eyes of the Taoist nun from a distance and felt that her calm eyes seemed to see through all falsehoods!
At this point, the Second Priest was almost giving up on catching Lu Xun alive, knowing that if he didn’t flee now, he might be forced to stay here, to die!
But he was not reconciled, he really wasn’t!
In his view, Lu Xun was just a low order cultivator.
He didn’t expect to keep stumbling on Lu Xun and end up in this situation.
Speaking of which, even if he managed to escape now, his status and position among the foreign races would be greatly reduced.
Having lost his treasure and clone, having lost an arm, his power must have dropped a lot.
Plus repeatedly failing, his reputation would certainly hit rock bottom.
He needed the secret that Lu Xun held, he needed an answer!
The Second Priest’s body kept receding, avoiding the wooden sword.
He raised his finger from the remaining left arm, the fingertip was cut open by Qi, oozing a dark red blood.
He used his own blood to paint one character after another in the air.
“Whiz——” Gu Xiaoman looked as calm as water, controlling the wooden sword, slashing at the Second Priest again.
This time, it left the Second Priest only with his left arm.
Having lost both arms, the Second Priest floated in the air on a flame, the bloody characters at this moment were all completed.
A smile emerged on his face as if freed of heavy burden, but deep in his eyes, there was endless reverence.
“I invite my god to possess me!” he yelled out loud.
In an instant, these bloody characters began to burn.
On the Second Priest’s forehead, a crack that emitted a black light appeared.
This crack was not vertical, but horizontal.
And his pupils were also changing color, turning into deep black in a moment!
The three horizontal eyes were reminiscent of the three-eyed statue in the sanctuary!
The light in the sky disappeared all at once, and this area plunged into eerie darkness.
The sun was still hanging in the sky, recklessly shedding the light of summer, but within a radius of some tens of miles from the Second Priest as the center, it darkened in an instant.
—The light could not get in.
And in this darkness, three slender eyes appeared in the sky.
These eyes looked down on everything from above.
No matter what angle you look from, these three slender eyes seem to be watching you, paying attention to your every move.
Everyone present felt chills and fear for an unknown reason.
This was not just a dimensional power.
Gu Xiaoman floated to Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei’s side. The wooden sword returned to her hand, guarding in front of Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei.
“Stand … stand behind me.” The second sister spoke.
Her expression remained calm, but she was on full alert.
The three eyes in the sky gave her a strong sense of crisis, even oppression!
As she was a half-step into the Nine Realms, let alone Lu Xun and others.
Lu Xun looked at the Second Priest in the distance, horrified.
“Is this a possession by a ghost?” He didn’t expect the Second Priest to play this game.
According to his past life memory, he hadn’t seen any priest do this.
He glanced at the second sister’s thin silhouette standing in front of him, and his heart quickly calmed down.
She seemed to have been born with this kind of charm.
The second sister turned around, looked at Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei, and said calmly,
“Don’t … don’t panic, we have … have Sir with us …”
The feeling these three slender eyes gave people was: everything was under their gaze.
In fact, for the Heavenly Dust Continent, everything was also under Sir’s gaze.
…
…
In the back mountain of the Demon Sect, Sir was giving Lin Chan and Ji Li special training just like a few days ago.
The content of today’s special training was still calligraphy.
Sir held a cheap brush in his right hand and was writing on a piece of low-quality rice paper whose surface was not even flat.
Since both Lin Chan and Ji Li were sword cultivators, he wrote the Chinese character for “sword”.
After writing, he turned to the two girls and said, “Begin to copy.”
As soon as he finished speaking, wrinkles appeared on his ordinary face.
He looked at Ji Li and Lin Chan, then looked at the “sword” character he had written on the rice paper, and said, “Forget it, don’t copy for now. I’ll write another one for you later.”
After saying that, he lifted his right hand with his thumb and forefinger placed together and flicked on the “sword” character on the parchment.
The next moment, the “sword” character on the rice paper actually disappeared!
The paper returned to its original state, as if the character had never appeared on it.
The “sword” character was sent to another place.
“Xiao Man, I need to borrow your sword,” Sir said softly.

(PS: Second update. There are a lot of messy news about Yuewen out there, and many readers are asking about it. I can only say that it will not affect me or this book. Also, the next book will definitely still be posted on Qidian. Many things are being over-interpreted, with black pots being thrown all over the place. Anyway, everyone, don’t panic, I’m not panicking either. My only job is to strive to write the book well, and you just need to support me. Double monthly tickets as usual~)
