Tian Youpeng was about to sweep his spear horizontally, severing Ning Qingman's body directly from the heart!
In the blink of life and death, Ning Qingman chose not to defend.
This Sword Immortal, who only attacked without defending, didn't turn around, didn't make any unnecessary moves, just redirected the sword aid at the River Guardian Heavenly King.
She wielded no sword, thus everywhere beca a sword!
The sharp sword light carried the power of [Sword Dissolving], slashing directly at Tian Youpeng.
Ning Qingman's response was very fierce—
Die together!
With the Martial Saint Body's abundance of Life Force, even without a heart, she wouldn't die instantly, and might even be saved.
If Tian Youpeng chose to continue attacking, not being able to ensure Ning Qingman's imdiate death, he would have to endure Ning Qingman's sword.
He, like Ning Qingman, was also strong in attack but weak in defense.
Hence he wasn't confident in taking the sword head-on.
He was a killer, not an assassin.
He acted only for himself, not for the Buddhists.
Tian Youpeng retracted his spear and retreated, gathering spear flas to defend.
Ning Qingman barely caught her breath when the Martial Arts River surged in!
Ka—
Before the rushing river reached Ning Qingman, it froze prematurely, halting its montum.
The Demon Spear appeared too suddenly, and the Green Frost Army couldn't react in ti, but finally managed to activate [Green God Cold Prison] to block the strike for Ning Qingman.
The river was frozen for less than an instant before breaking free, but it was enough ti for Ning Qingman to recover.
She swept her sword horizontally, breaking the surrounding colorful radiance, repelling the reattacking Demon Spear, moving like lightning towards the side.
Tian Youpeng stepped into the void, then instantly erged from it, thrusting his spear at Ning Qingman.
Two Martial Saints engaged in close combat, every move was a fight for life, every move was thrilling!
Ning Qingman, already not fully recovered, rushed all the way without regard, consuming greatly.
Under such circumstances, Tian Youpeng's surprise attack with his spear succeeded, causing serious injury.
Tian Youpeng had already completed his Taoism, and his combat power had left the 'Evil Demon' rank, reaching a new height.
With such changing tides, Ning Qingman fell completely into disadvantage, her situation even more perilous than Li Fei!
The River Guardian Heavenly King glanced at Tian Youpeng and Ning Qingman's battle with so regret for not being able to kill them earlier.
The Buddhists of course anticipated Ning Qingman might co to rescue Li Fei and had thus prepared—
By contacting 'Demon Spear' Tian Youpeng in advance.
For Peak Strong Persons to grow stronger, they need resources for sustenance.
'Three Demons' like such loose cultivators, although not backed by great powers, have many channels among the populace to acquire resources.
Through these channels, one can contact them.
Therefore, it's hard to lock onto their whereabouts, but leaving them ssages isn't difficult.
As in the past when Qilian Guanshi set up a plot in Cuiqing City, he managed to contact two great demons using this principle.
Contacting 'Demon Spear' Tian Youpeng was of the sa nature.
They didn't intend to 'hire' him to kill for them.
After becoming a Martial Saint, Tian Youpeng never accepted any more contracts.
Only the life of a Peak Strong Person could move him, and such 'paynt' no one could afford!
The Buddhists didn't expect to persuade Tian Youpeng either.
They rely told him:
"At this ti today, outside Vajra City, you have a chance to assassinate a Peak Strong Person and continue enhancing your Tao!"
Thus, Tian Youpeng ca.
The battle above the Sky Do was enveloped by the Great Sun Buddha Vajra Nirvana Array, and since he wasn't hiding in the sky from the start, it was hard to intervene later.
Later, when the Profound Heart True Monarch deployed the Qiankun Inverted Five Elents Array towards Li Fei, Tian Youpeng realized his opportunity ca and followed suit, sneaking in.
But within the big array, Tian Youpeng's choice of targets was quite limited.
The Profound Heart True Monarch never appeared, leaving only two Imperial Camp Armies, Li Fei, River Guardian Heavenly King, and Ming Qi.
The Imperial Camp Army and Li Fei were not Peak Strong Persons, killing them offered no benefits to his Tao, so no consideration was needed.
The remaining River Guardian Heavenly King was too strong, with no chance of one-hit kill, so no consideration was needed.
There was only Ming Qi, a newly promoted Martial Saint, quite suitable for assassination.
But the other's Taoism was most countering Tian Youpeng's [No Self]...
So Tian Youpeng continued to wait.
He didn't care about the Da Lan Dynasty and the West Pole Country's win or loss, he only wanted to find a suitable assassination target and continue pursuing his Tao.
preferably without any aftereffects.
For instance, killing Qilian Guanshi resulted in no one seeking revenge.
After Ming Qi died, a new Buddha Eye Heavenly King ca into the array.
It's just that this oldest living Martial Saint was exceptionally stable!
The opponent knew beforehand that Tian Youpeng would co and always kept precautions, showing no weaknesses.
Besides, he possessed [Sacrifice], Tian Youpeng feared he couldn't kill the Buddha Eye Heavenly King in one strike, and if forced like Ming Qi, might recklessly use [Sacrifice], which would lead to severe consequences.
It wasn't until Ning Qingman charged into the array that Tian Youpeng finally saw his opportunity!
In the past decades, he couldn't act against Da Lan Dynasty's peaks, nor dare to act against Buddhists and Taoist peaks.
The only targets remained were the other two demons and Ning Qingman, this loose cultivator.
Just before his Taoism wasn't complete, Tian Youpeng had no confidence to assassinate Ning Qingman, so he hadn't acted.
Later, the relationship between Ning Qingman and Li Fei beca known worldwide, so Tian Youpeng silently removed Ning Qingman from his assassination list.
The reason was simple, Tian Youpeng feared Li Fei's future revenge.
Li Fei himself already held infinite potential, likely to beco the new number one globally!
Moreover, he held high positions in the Da Lan Dynasty, commanding astonishing forces and resources!
Tian Youpeng didn't wish to endure retaliation from Li Fei.
But today's situation made him couldn't help but feel tempted.
Buddhists and Taoists jointly set a sche to kill Li Fei!
Li Fei seed destined to die.
If Ning Qingman ca to save, and he seized the chance to kill Ning Qingman, Li Fei's last hope would vanish.
Once Li Fei was dead, in the future Da Lan Dynasty wouldn't have anyone irrelevant to Ning Qingman seeking revenge.
By then Da Lan Dynasty would be busy dealing with Buddhists and Taoists, unable to spare efforts to handle him.
For demons like Tian Youpeng, a tripartite confrontation is similarly better than a singular dominance!
Besides, Ning Qingman's condition wasn't at her Peak, she distractedly took action, perhaps with the River Guardian Heavenly King and Profound Heart True Monarch inclined to help him.
A perfect assassination target incomparable!
This battle had nurous variables, erging endlessly.
But once Ning Qingman arrived, everything unfolded just as Jing Heng predicted from the start, 'Demon Spear' Tian Youpeng executed an attack on her, achieving a critical strike!
"I want you to watch her die with your own eyes—"
The River Guardian Heavenly King's eyes burned with fury, addressing Li Fei.
