Chapter 1736: Chapter 57: Do Not Linger in Battle
Fan Wushu, unsure if he believed it or not, simply fud, “Outrageous, in a place like the Mountain and Sea Realm where everyone relies on their own abilities, they even form cliques and bring in connections, it’s simply shaless! The epito of shaless!”
He then turned to Zhongli Yan: “Brother Zhongli, if you have any friends, why not contact them. Let’s join forces too, and then turn back to deal with them! We must let them know they aren’t the only ones with people!”
Zhongli Yan coldly snorted, his aura imposing as he said, “I, Zhongli Yan, a seven-foot man, do not believe in the heavens or fate, relying only on these iron fists and a sword!”
“…” Fan Wushu glanced at him and said in a lancholy tone, “You have no friends in Chuguo, is that what you an?”
Zhongli Yan snorted again: “It’s not that I can’t, I simply disdain it!”
Fan Wushu pressed his forehead in frustration and asked, “What about the people entering the Mountain and Sea Realm this ti, do you have any with whom your relations are sowhat normal, with whom you can discuss cooperation?”
Seeing Zhongli Yan silent for a long ti, he couldn’t help but ask, “Do you have conflicts with all of them?”
Zhongli Yan angrily said, “I should have just put you in front earlier to take the lightning!”
At the mont when that terrifying lightning spread rapidly, it was indeed Zhongli Yan alone holding the line, bearing all the damage in front.
Fan Wushu was actually hiding behind him and thus remained unscathed.
At this mont, he couldn’t help feeling a bit guilty and softened his tone on his own accord: “Since we can’t find people to ally with, tell , what are your plans moving forward?”
Zhongli Yan, clearly having thought about it, confidently stated, “First to cut down Dou Zhao, then Jiang Wang, followed by Wu Ling, and then Zuo Guangshu, and imdiately after, Xiang Bei…”
“Wait, wait, wait.” Fan Wushu hurriedly stopped him, asking in a nearly explicit tone: “I’m asking about your plans! aning your strategy! Understand? What was your original plan?”
The implication was to stop these plans imdiately and turn their focus and thoughts on the mystery of Huang Weizhen’s God Arrives.
Unfortunately, Zhongli Yan couldn’t grasp the aning, honestly stating: “First to cut down Dou Zhao, then Wu Ling, then Xiang Bei, and then Zuo Guangshu, imdiately followed by Qu Shunhua…”
“Wait a minute, wait a minute!”
Fan Wushu frowned so deeply it ford a ‘川’ on his forehead, pondering whether this Zhongli guy ca to the Mountain and Sea Realm rely to recklessly chop people?
“I’m rather curious.” Fan Wushu was amused, producing a chilling calm, like an outsider watching from the sidelines: “Why does Jiang Wang rank so high on your chopping list? He didn’t even have a chance to make a move earlier.”
Zhongli Yan roared, “If it wasn’t for that Jiang being there earlier, would I even need to run?”
He did have a knack for distinguishing priorities!
Fan Wushu covered his face with his hands, remaining speechless for a long ti.
Until…
Suddenly, Zhongli Yan hauled him behind.
Clang!
The heavy sword swung out, blocking an incoming sharp claw.
During this mont of sword-and-claw confrontation, Zhongli Yan and Fan Wushu managed to glimpse the target’s image fleetingly.
It was a bizarre bird, shaped like a crow, with green eyes and a red beak.
Its wings flapped once, disappearing from sight again.
Then there was a cacophony of frantic tallic clashes, like the rapid strings of a pipa echoing around Fan Wushu!
“What kind of rotten luck is this?”
Such a thought flashed through Fan Wushu’s mind; he decided to surround himself with ice, instantly turning into an ice sculpture.
To alleviate the defensive burden on Zhongli Yan.
Outside the ice sculpture, more frost descended to slow that bizarre bird’s speed.
…
In the heavenly ons, there is a bird, nad the Eater Crow, with green eyes and a red beak, disappearing in a blink, fond of human skulls. ——”Mountain and Sea Strange Beasts Chronicles”
…
…
Over the sea ravaged by thunder light, two geniuses were on the verge of a standoff, both refusing to give way, with a clash looming.
The Young Master of Great Chu appeared in such a scenario, draped in light blue mist armor, with luxurious robes fluttering, walking on water waves. From afar, he raised his hand, and a majestic water dragon rose proudly from the sea, frightening Zhongli Yan and Fan Wushu into scattering with heads bowed and fleeing…
A true hero indeed! Exhibiting quite the heroic posture of rescuing the beauty!
The only thing a bit off was…
Qu Shunhua, the “beauty” being rescued, not only wasn’t timidly waiting there to bat her eyelashes at the hero but was also furiously chasing Zhongli Yan for tens of miles in rage.
Seeing that Zhongli Yan was fleeing as if oil was spilled under his feet, running impossibly fast, and unable to catch up, she gave up reluctantly.
Zuo Guangshu suddenly felt that he might have rescued Zhongli Yan.
On the other side, Qu Shunhua returned, dark blue mist rising around her, exhibiting an increasingly exquisite deanor. She also donned the No Obstructing Smoke Armor, heading towards Zuo Guangshu and Jiang Wang.
Such a creative Dao Technique like the No Obstructing Smoke Armor, Zuo Guangshu had certainly shown it off to Qu Shunhua before.
Of course, the Marquis of Yuguo’s residence wouldn’t lack Pri Stones.
However, Qu Shunhua had other thods to counter the Chongxuan environnt, not needing to use the No Obstructing Smoke Armor all the ti, so she had almost never used it…
But now that Zuo Guangshu appeared, the situation was naturally different.
No Obstructing Smoke Armor was very useful and must be used all the ti!
“Brother Jiang, thanks to you all coming to help!” Qu Shunhua flew forward, her smile bright and decorous manners in place.
Following just behind Zuo Guangshu, Jiang Wang indeed felt the boiling battle intent emanating from this younger sister-in-law. He couldn’t help but grow curious… What was the Divine Skill Zuo Guangshu ntioned she was hiding? How could it lead her, despite the obvious gap in cultivation levels, to still have the confidence to confront Zhongli Yan head-on?
As for the Zen Master in the gray robe next to Qu Shunhua, he stood silent like a sculpture, revealing no traceable emotions to anyone.
“I reckon if we had been a little later, Zhongli Yan and his group might have already been accounted for!” Jiang Wang laughed.
