C145
The haze descended upon the world as the sharp sword cut through the air!
Zhou Wen stood in front of Qi Xing's room, lost in his thoughts. "With a sigh, my body quivered, and in the blink of an eye, I regained my senses." "Bang, bang, bang!" A single hand knocked on Qi Xing's door, causing it to suddenly open. Qi Xing suddenly stood at the door. Seeing that it was Zhou Wen, he was not surprised. His intuition told him that Zhou Wen's strength had more than doubled compared to before. Qi Xing calmly said, "Let's go!" Zhou Wen naturally followed. Zhou Wen naturally knew where they would go next. Since he had made the decision, he would not go back on his word. This was Zhou Wen's promise. Other than a small bag, the two of them only had some clothes that they changed into. Only the sword in his hand remained!
"Have you thought of a way to capture the leader of Black Cloud Stronghold?" Zhou Wen asked as they walked out of the inn and onto a mountain path.
"Dive in."
"What else?"
Silence. Silence. Zhou Wen looked at Qi Xing in shock. His hands were trembling as he pointed at Qi Xing. After a long while, he finally spoke, "This is your so-called plan to capture the king?!"
In fact, Qi Xing really hadn't thought about it. Just now, when Zhou Wen asked, he had answered without thinking. "How about it?"
"You!" Zhou Wen cried out in grief, but he was rendered speechless. Attack him from the front? Impossible, just by looking at those huge bandits, they would be able to drain you of all your internal energy, and at that time, wouldn't you be killed by a single sword strike? Only when a warrior entered the seventh heaven could his inner strength be considered immortal. However, that amount was also not much. There was no absolute in the world, everything was just relative. The higher the realm, the more consumed inner strength would be. In fact, the consumption rate would be ten times higher. Otherwise, if the two seventh level heaven stage martial artists fought to the death, then there would be no end to it. As for the Upper Sky Realm, Qi Xing didn't know what it was.
Since that was the case, the only way was to sneak in. However, you have to have a way to infiltrate. The two of them are now even more unfamiliar with the terrain of the Black Cloud Stronghold. From the looks of it, he could only capture a lackey and interrogate him. At this moment, Zhou Wen regretted leaving such an important matter to Qi Xing. If he had known earlier, he would have spent some money to buy some information.
If there was demand, there was supply and demand. In this world, there were some hidden powers that would sell information, and there were even some that developed powers that specialized in gathering information from the world. To earn a living by selling these information, there were all sorts of information such as spiritual items, treasures, a person's whereabouts, and so on. Naturally, the prices of these messages weren't low.
"I'll go back and buy some news!" After Zhou Wen's reminder, Qi Xing also thought of this. He immediately stopped and walked back, wondering if he could buy the silver he had left.
Helpless, Zhou Wen could only wander around once more. Shaking his head, Zhou Wen saw that Qi Xing had suddenly stopped. Just as he was about to inquire, Qi Xing's gloomy voice rang out, "Since you're here, come out. Could it be that he wants to launch a sneak attack? "
As Qi Xing was heading back, he suddenly discovered an aura rushing towards the two of them. At first, Qi Xing thought he was just a passing martial artist. However, the breath suddenly stopped not far ahead. Qi Xing immediately felt that something was amiss. He could feel a faint killing intent from this aura.
"I didn't expect that your martial arts would have improved so much." Twenty steps in front of him, a figure slowly appeared.
Zhou Wen's eyebrows jumped. This person was Zhang Ye! He didn't dare to be careless and quickly walked over to Qi Xing's side, watching every single move of Zhang Ye.
"Who exactly are you?" Qi Xing asked coldly, fiercely suppressing the rage in his heart before calmly standing and asking.
"Fine, I will announce my name. I am Zhang Su!" Zhang Ye laughed. Seeing the cautious expressions of Qi Xing and Zhou Wen, he sneered in his heart. Last time at the inn, it was inconvenient for the two of you to escape this calamity. This time, it's the time of your deaths! When he thought of this, he realized that Zhang Zian was not in a hurry and wanted to torture the two of them.
Qi Xing did not say anymore, his body moved, and he rushed out!
"Good job!" Seeing this, Zhang Ye shouted loudly and raised his sword to attack.
Clang! Zhou Wen drew his sword and drew out its support.
In the blink of an eye, the three of them made contact, and the White Spirit Sword was unsheathed! In the blink of an eye, a stream of light flashed as the Flowing Cloud Sword Art was easily executed. Suddenly, a floating cloud appeared between the three of them. The White Spirit Sword pointed forward and the cloud shot towards Zhang Su's face like lightning. Zhang Gu was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that Qi Xing's swordsmanship had improved after not seeing him for a few days. Isn't it too laughable for you to try to stop me with just this third-rate sword technique? With a flick of his right hand, a sword chime sounded out, causing Qi Xing to feel pain in his eardrums.
The short sword thrust out like a bolt of lightning, and a sneer flashed across Zhang Ye's face. The moment Liu Yun and the short sword made contact, they instantly vanished from the world, and it was as if Qi Xing had already predicted that the situation before this would happen. With a calm mind, he raised the sword with his right hand and gently swung it forward. Just as he was about to do so, Zhou Wen's sword move also arrived! Ling Li's sharpness was completely different from the Sword of Qi.
"How ignorant!" The mocking expression on Zhang Gu's face became even stronger. With a raise of his hand, he slashed out with his sword. Clang! Clang! Qi Xing and Zhou Wen's swords were pushed back by his sword. The dagger struck straight at Qi Xing's vitals. Qi Xing shuddered in his heart as he thought to himself. The power of the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique could not be unleashed at all. Facing Zhang Gu, he had no idea how to start, and the speed of his Flowing Cloud Sword Art was not fast. This made it so that the flaw in the Flowing Cloud Sword Technique could be easily found by Zhang Gu. Qi Xingchen instantly snapped back to reality. With a 'shua shua' sound, he shook his hand and three clouds flew towards Zhang Su.
When Zhang Ye saw this, he was shocked by the speed at which Qi Xing had used her sword. In his heart, he was slightly anxious. He would kill him first. A violent aura suddenly exploded out. Zhang Gu's confidence was boosted by the peerless aura.
"Ha, go to hell!" Cloud Piercing Sword Art! The dagger in Zhang Gu's hand seemed to have turned into the sharpest spear in the world, about to pierce through the clouds! Slash! A stream of light instantly struck the three incoming cloud with the force of a thunderbolt, and the cloud immediately disintegrated upon contact! Just as Zhang Su was about to use this opportunity to give chase, Zhou Wen's attack arrived, and the long sword flew towards him! Sharp edge! Sharp edge! Endless sharpness, extremely pure sharpness, it seemed as if it would cut everything in the world!
Clang! As the short sword and sword clashed, sparks flew out, captivating the eyes of the crowd. Zhang Gu held his short sword in his right hand and blocked Zhou Wen's incoming attack. He was shocked. The young man in front of him had pretty good swordsmanship, and the sharpness mixed in with it made Zhang Su feel slightly apprehensive. In this way, Zhang Gu's determination to kill Qi Xing and Zhou Wen became even stronger.
Qi Xing was startled. Zhang Ye's reaction was fast, but he actually remained calm in the face of the two men's attacks. On the contrary, the two of them had no way of dealing with him. In the blink of an eye, more than ten moves had been exchanged.
"Brat, I'll kill you first!" Zhang Gu glared at him in fury. He changed his short sword and unleashed a terrifying sword attack! It tore through the sky and ruthlessly slashed at Zhou Wen.
Before he could finish his words, he saw Qi Xing rubbing his body once more. Shua! The White Spirit Sword appeared! A sword image appeared on the blade of the White Spirit Sword. The sword shadow instantly flew out. Whoosh! Zhang Shou Xin felt something, and his expression became extremely serious. This sword stroke was too fast. It was decisive in dropping Zhou Wen and raising the sword to counter this attack!
"Ding!" Zhang Gu's face relaxed, but in the next moment, his face changed drastically. Several sword shadows appeared in front of him, heading straight for his heart! "Damn it!" Gritting his teeth, he held the sword in his hand. As he swung his sword, the Cloud Piercing Sword Technique was constantly being translated! Ding ding ding! The two swords clashed, and the clear sound of collision was like music. However, this sound was extremely disturbing.
Zhou Wen's face turned pale. That strike had consumed too much of his internal energy. Seeing the peerless speed of Qi Xing's attack, he was overjoyed. In an instant, his face flushed red from excitement!
Zhang Gu finally knew that he was in a bad situation. Qi Xing's sword fell like a storm, but Zhang Gu had no choice but to dodge with all his might. If this scene were to fall into the eyes of those in the martial world, they would be stunned!
