Lie Yun screamed and leaped into the air to avoid touching Xuanyuan. A spiritual fighter could not fly, so he only felt safe in the air.
When looking at the terrified faces of the Lie Family’s guard, Xuanyuan showed no sympathy. He activated his Dragon Boots and Dustless Helmet. They started consuming his Qi at a rapid pace, he only had 10 seconds worth of Qi, but he was willing to fight!
With his Qi quickly depleting, Xuanyuan used the devouring technique and consumed the energy around him for a brief moment. He quickly covered up the disturbance that the technique created and surged to the sky like a heavenly dragon. He was holding his mysterious dagger and before Lie Yun had a chance to realise what happened, he thrust the dagger and pierced it into Lie Yun’s head. At that moment, he reappeared so everyone could see what happened. Lie Yun and Xuanyuan were connected by a black dagger which impaled Lie Yun.
Lie Yun’s enormous Qi was absorbed by Xuanyuan which quickly replenished his tired body. Of course, Greed also absorbed his fair share of the powerful Qi.
After seeing Xuanyuan’s reappearance, Nuhu’s young master, Nu Qian, yelled, “This is our chance, kill him!”
Using the axe in his hand, Nuhu released his overwhelming Qi which merged with his axe to form a giant axe which was sent flying at Xuanyuan. At the same time, Fang Wujian jumped out and stopped the Qi-imbued axe with his sword and the axe was shattered immediately. A wave of shattered Qi crushed the trees nearby before dispersing.
“Fang Wujian!” Nuhu screamed, “What are you doing? You think you can get pass the forest without the help from the Nu and the Lie family? Don’t forget we are in the same boat!”
Fang Wujian smiled coldly, “I only know that the fewer people we have to worry about, the fewer the beasts that will encounter. We can fight if you’re not happy.”
“You…” Nuhu was flushed with anger. He would never win against Fang Wujian if they fought.
When the two were talking, Xuanyuan landed lightly on the ground and covered himself with the Dustless Helmet again.
The Lie family guards were all panicking, when Xuanyuan suddenly appeared and thrust his dagger through a guard’s back. The man’s body started to wilt and rot immediately. Xuanyuan was like a ghost in the dark. A second later, another guard fell lifelessly to the ground.
