Inside the teahouse, the most talked about was the matter of the Bodhi Fruit s being stolen. Although there were many different opinions and Lee Xun had a rough understanding of the situation, there were some people who accidentally discovered the Bodhi Fruit, but deliberately leaked out the news, causing many experts to come and fight for it. There were six that appeared, of which three were missing, or said to be missing, but from everyone's point of view, they were all dead.
The Bodhi Fruit s, Lee Xun had also heard of this old man Baili Hong before, mature Bodhi Fruit were definitely Ten-thousand-year Spiritual Treasure s. If a Human Rank Ranker ate it, they could directly advance their Earth Rank and their body would also explode in an instant, causing Earth Rank Expert to have a 30% chance of advancing his Heaven Rank. However, the number of Bodhi Fruit that appeared in history could be counted with one hand. Every time they caused a storm of blood and gore, causing a large number of Heaven Rank Rankers s and Earth Rank Expert s to perish, but even so, the number of people participating in the robbery was still increasing. After all, the temptation was too great. It would be extremely difficult for the Earth Rank Expert to enter the Heaven Rank, and it would be even more difficult for the Heaven Rank Rankers to raise its strength.
And from the information gathered so far, the Bodhi Fruit was still at its original position. Actually, the people who took action to snatch the immature Bodhi Fruit all thought that they would not be able to participate in the battle in the end, and wanted to eat it in advance. When the Bodhi Fruit matured, that would truly be a good time to play.
"Jingjing, let's also go to that Qinglian Mountain and take a look. We won't be going to Hongjun Sword Sect first."
"What's the point of going there? It's not like we can't get it."
"Going there is naturally to watch the fun, I also do not intend to snatch the Bodhi Fruit. I just want to see what methods Heaven Rank Rankers has up his sleeve. This is a rare opportunity. "
"Alright, but don't be rash. I know you are also thinking of increasing your strength, but you must not have any ideas about this Bodhi Fruit this time." After all, Lei Jingjing had lived in the Sword Soul Continent for hundreds of years, so she had heard a lot about robbing other treasures.
"Don't worry, if we lose our lives, there's no use in snatching that Bodhi Fruit, no?" Lee Xun naturally wanted to get his hands on the Bodhi Fruit, but he did have that kind of self-awareness. Those who knew that they would die fighting for the Bodhi Fruit were mostly around two to three hundred years old. They did not have any hope of advancing through cultivation or increasing their strength, so they risked their lives to fight for it. Lee Xun was different from them. He was only young, and wasn't even twenty-four yet. When had such a young Earth Rank Peak Ranker appeared before?
Just as Lee Xun and Lei Jingjing had finished their discussion, two young men wearing bright and beautiful clothes sat at Lee Xun's table without even greeting them.
Looking at the two of them who were around twenty-seven or eight years old, one of them having Tenth Rank and the other had Eleventh Rank, Lee Xun wanted to laugh. Amongst his peers, they could be considered not bad, but to think that they would have ideas on Lei Jingjing with such little strength.
"This lady here, I am Zhao Kong, the second son of Prince Zhao Lin. This is my senior brother Lu Xing, the most prized disciple of the Hongjun Sword Sect Earth Rank Expert, Guangde Zi. Could you tell me your name, Miss? "
"Jingjing, let's go." Lee Xun was too lazy to bother with them, so he stood up and left.
Lei Jingjing naturally wanted to follow Lee Xun and leave, but upon seeing that, Zhao Kong grabbed onto Lei Jingjing's hand.
"Whap."
With a resounding slap, Zhao Kong was sent flying and crashed into three tables. This time, all the customers upstairs looked over. After being slapped, Zhao Kong was unable to get up. He spat out a pool of blood from his shattered teeth.
"You bitch, you're giving me face but not taking it." At the same time that Lu Xing was enraged, the Soul Sword entered her hands and pierced towards Lei Jingjing's chest.
Lee Xun reached out and grabbed the incoming Soul Sword and broke it in half. In the next moment, an arm flew up, followed by a miserable scream. The speed at which Lee Xun cut off Lu Xing's arm was truly too fast, no one could see it clearly, and it was only after her own arm had flown up that Lu Xing felt the pain of losing her arm.
"A slap is considered light when it comes to a woman who touches me. If you want to kill my woman, I can cut off one of your arms. "
After Lee Xun said this, he pulled Lei Jingjing and walked towards the stairs, but Lei Jingjing suddenly asked: "Why didn't you kill them?"
"If they don't want to die, then just teach them a lesson." Lee Xun was not a bloodthirsty person, he had wanted to kill Lu Xing just now. However, when he made his move, he still wanted to leave that Lu Xing's life and give him a chance to change his mind.
Before they even reached the stairs, the waiter who called out to Lee Xun ran up. Lee Xun went and threw a large pearl to the waiter and said: "All the losses will belong to me."
When some sharp-eyed people saw the pearl that Lee Xun threw out, they all took a deep breath. That pearl would probably be enough to house the Green Ming Tea House for a month.
Ignoring everyone's gaze, Lee Xun held Lei Jingjing's small hand and walked out of the green tea house, towards the empty teleportation circle.
However, as soon as they had walked past two streets, Lee Xun could sense that more than twenty people were chasing after him. One of them was at the twelfth stage, the other two were at the Eleventh Rank of the ninth stage.
"Two people in front, stop." A middle-aged man called out.
Lee Xun did not want to pretend to be confused, so he stopped and turned to look at the twenty odd people. The one who called him to halt was the one who was at the twelfth step, and one of them was the one whose face was only half swollen.
"Senior Brother Ye Ping, it was that man that cut off Lu Xing's arm." Clutching the side of her face, Zhao Kong said in a slurred voice.
"Little brother, you must have acted a bit more ruthlessly. Leave an arm for each of you, and I'll let the two of you go."
"Senior brother Ye Ping, it's too easy for them to take care of that woman. We'll leave her behind to serve Senior brother Lu Xing." Zhao Kong suggested.
The middle-aged man glared at Zhao Kong, and then said to Lee Xun: "Little brother, leave your two arms behind. She stayed behind to serve my junior brother, Lu Xing. When my junior brother recovered, I'll let her go. If you don't agree, then don't blame us for being impolite. "
Lee Xun clapped his hands while smiling, and said: "You are really courteous. "Seems like I've truly given in. Whoever dares to touch my woman today, die." Lee Xun's words seemed like he was joking, but the last word of his, 'dead', was filled with killing intent.
"Hmph, anyone would know how to scare people. Kill them. " Ye Ping had summoned his Soul Sword and rushed towards Lee Xun, while the rest of the people had also summoned their Soul Sword and attacked Lee Xun and Lei Jingjing.
Miserable screams sounded continuously. Ye Ping and the other three who were attacking Lee Xun had one of their arms chopped off by Lee Xun, while the five who were attacking Lei Jingjing had their heads cut off.
The remaining people were all dumbstruck, they did not even manage to see how Lee Xun did it. Ye Ping was a Ranker of the twelfth step, with him leading the charge, everyone went up together, but in the blink of an eye, it turned into a miserable state. One of them was actually scared to the point of wetting his pants, his legs trembling.
Seeing that no one dared to make a move, Lee Xun pulled Lei Jingjing and turned to leave.
"If you have the ability to leave your name, then my Hongjun Sword Sect will not stop with this matter." Suppressing the pain of losing his arm, Ye Ping said fiercely.
"Lee Xun. I will personally take care of your Hongjun Sword Sect. I hope your master won't be as' courteous' as you, if not, I will still be able to kill you one way or another. " Lee Xun was filled with anger, he did not want to cause trouble, why did this Hongjun Sword Sect disciple look more and more like one of the underworld. Zhao Kong took advantage of Lei Jingjing and received a slap on the face. Although Lei Jingjing's attack was a bit heavy, Zhao Kong deserved it. As for Lu Xing wanting to kill Lei Jingjing at that time, Lee Xun had already shown mercy. Right now, Ye Ping was even better, without asking questions, he just wanted to leave an arm behind when he sees Lee Xun, and even said that he was being polite. If he didn't agree, then Ye Ping would send people to kill the two of them. This was the streets of the imperial city. There was no law here anymore. For a moment, Lee Xun was also thinking how Hongjun Sword Sect educate disciples, and how they all became like this. But Mo Qian had said it before, the current Guang Cheng Zi was someone who was very virtuous, and Lee Xun was now somewhat suspicious.
After they passed through two streets, Lee Xun felt a large group of people chasing after them. This time, they seemed to be an army with around 400 people, one of them had the strength of Tenth Rank, while the others were only at the fifth stage.
Lee Xun was so angry, what kind of person was this? Are they all idiots? Ye Ping's group of people were not even a match for Lee Xun just now, what's the use of coming here now.
Among the people, the leader was riding on a black horse, holding a Soul Sword, he pointed at Lee Xun and said: "Under the orders of Zhao Ling's own king, we caught the evil person Lee Xun, and you still haven't kneeled down and surrendered?"
"You must have been kicked in the head by a donkey. I'll stand here and catch it for you, do you dare to come over? " Lee Xun was so angry that he did not know whether to laugh or cry.
The leader's face turned ashen. How could he not know that if he went up, he would definitely be courting death? It was only because he recently offended his superior that he was assigned such an unlucky task.
"If you don't dare to come over, then I'll leave." Lee Xun pulled Lei Jingjing along as he turned around to leave.
Just at this moment, two elders of the Human Rank stood in front of Lee Xun.
One of them said, "You've killed someone in the imperial city. Do you want to leave so easily?"
Lee Xun had long since noticed the two approaching, it was just that they did not reveal themselves, and Lee Xun did not know the purpose of their visit.
"What do you want?"
"If you obediently follow us back to the imperial prison, we might be able to leave you with an intact corpse." Another person said coldly.
Lee Xun was speechless, he pulled Lei Jingjing and walked towards the two old men.
Seeing how Lee Xun ignored the two of them, the two old Soul Sword s raised their hands and rushed towards Lee Xun, causing the spectators to be stunned, the two old men's Soul Sword pierced each other's heart, while Lee Xun and Lei Jingjing somehow passed through the two old men, continuing to walk leisurely.
The high-ranking officer on top of the dark horse wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. He was secretly glad that if he had been a little bit rash just now, he would not have known how he would have died.
"Jingjing, did you encounter this kind of thing often in the past?" Lee Xun did not quickly leave with Lei Jingjing, as usual he was walking.
"Yeah, it's really annoying. They always hit the small ones and the old ones came. "Later on, when I met those people that did not follow the rules, I directly used force. The smarter ones wouldn't come looking for trouble with me."
Lee Xun nodded and smiled, in terms of Sword Soul Continent, being merciful would only bring him more trouble.
They had finally reached the teleportation circle but Lee Xun felt two more people had caught up. This time, they were from Earth Rank Expert, and only at the first level of Earth Rank.
Frowning, Lee Xun thought to himself that there was no end to it.
The two of them came closer, and upon seeing Lee Xun, they revealed troubled expressions. After they looked at each other for a moment, one of the elderly men in grey said while cupping his hands: "I wonder if the strong are willing to make a trip to Hongjun Sword Sect with us to explain everything that has happened today."
"I will definitely go to the Hongjun Sword Sect, but not today. I still have something to take care of." Lee Xun said with a cold face.
"This, if we just let you leave like this, the two of us won't be able to explain ourselves when we go back."
"How you explain it is your business. If you think you can stop me, then go ahead and try."
The old man frowned and clasped his hands. "Can you give me a deadline?"
"I don't know when the things I need to do will end. I can't give you the time limit either."
He exchanged glances with the elder who had remained silent all this while, and said: "The two of us know that we don't know your opponent, so we hope that you can keep your promise. If you don't go to the Hongjun Sword Sect to explain within these three months, the two of us will look for you from the ends of the earth, until we die. " After speaking, the two elders left.
Lee Xun felt that these two old men could still be considered to have some brains. If he had done this earlier, he wouldn't have needed to kill them.
They went onto the teleportation formation with Lei Jingjing and arrived at the valley city. On the other hand, Qing Lianshan was seventy Li northwest of the valley city. It was already near evening, so Lee Xun decided to find a place to stay. After all, the Bodhi Fruit s would not have any results in the next two days. What Lee Xun really wanted to see was the final battle, and there was no harm in delaying it by a day.
During the meal, Lee Xun brought Lei Jingjing and chose a bustling restaurant, but instead of a private room, they chose the main hall. However, with Lei Jingjing here, they would naturally not fight at a table with others.
Lee Xun also obtained some relatively important information. Currently, there were more than a thousand forces and large forces in Qing Lianshan and among the five great peak levels of strength, the people from the Feng Yun Sect and the Sacred Sword Villa had also arrived. Lee Xun secretly guessed that the Jiuyou Profound Sect would also send people over. When the surrounding tables of people, Lee Xun, thought of Jiuyou Profound Sect, they immediately started talking about it.
"Boss, do you think the remaining three top powers will come, especially the Jiuyou Profound Sect?"
"I'm afraid that the Jiuyou Profound Sect will not send anyone over this time."
"Boss, quickly tell me, you definitely have a point."
"Before we came, Master told me a few things. Although Jiuyou Profound Sect were powerful, they still followed the rules. The Bodhi Fruit s had appeared a total of five times before. The Jiuyou Profound Sect had participated in the first time, the third and most recent times, and in the end, were obtained by them. As for the second and fourth times, none of them had participated in the Jiuyou Profound Sect. When the other Heavenly Treasures were born, the Jiuyou Profound Sect was also the same. It was not every single time they participated, but they had their own choices. On this point, they were slightly better than the other four top-notch powers. It was also because of this that once Jiuyou Profound Sect participated, the other four top levels of strength would normally be somewhat apologetic. However, even if they were to clash head on, Jiuyou Profound Sect would rarely cause them to suffer. Unfortunately, this time, the powerhouses who couldn't see the Jiuyou Profound Sect made their move. Tomorrow, we will set off for Qing Lian Mountain. You all must remember, we are just here to watch the fun. Stay far away and don't talk too much. "
