nEveryone was watching to see Wu Ji kill Jiang Lan.
n
n
nWu Ji felt the same as well. She believed that there was no need to stab the other party a second time.
n
n
nShe would seal his fate with just one strike.
n
n
nHowever, just when Wu Ji thought that she was about to kill Jiang Lan with the sword…
n
n
nJiang Lan, who had been standing where he was, suddenly disappeared.
n
n
nThe sword sliced through the air.
n
n
n“Where is he?”
n
n
nWu Ji was flabbergasted.
n
n
nShe looked at her three companions.
n
n
nHowever, she was stunned by what she saw. Her three companions seemed to be covered in blood, and their faces were filled with terror.
n
n
nWhat… What happened?
n
n
nThe moment Wu Ji thought of this, she felt her perspective change.
n
n
nIt was as if she had suddenly gone to a faraway place and then suddenly fell flat.
n
n
nDid the world become lopsided?
n
n
nBut the next moment, a sharp pain spread across her entire body.
n
n
nShe wanted to move, but realized that she couldn’t. In the next instant, she realized that half of her body was gone.
n
n
n“Were you looking for me just now?”
n
n
nJiang Lan’s voice entered Wu Ji’s ears.
n
n
nOnly then did Wu Ji realize that she was about to die.
n
n
nShe had been killed instantly by the other party.
n
n
n“How… how is this possible?”
n
n
nThis question flashed through Wu Ji’s mind.
n
n
nThen, she completely lost consciousness.
n
n
nShe did not feel too much pain.
n
n
nJiang Lan retracted his gaze.
n
n
nThen, he turned to look at the other three people. He wanted to ask how many people were there.
n
n
nIf the situation wasn’t bad enough to affect him, then it was fine.
n
n
nHe would just head back and crouch.
n
n
nIf it would affect him, he had to think of a way to deal with it quickly.
n
n
nOtherwise, if Senior Sister Ao and the others return, he would have no choice but to take action, which would be troublesome.
n
n
nIf he was the only one left alive, there was no way he could answer to Kunlun.
n
n
nHe couldn’t possibly say that all those people sacrificed themselves to save him, right?
n
n
nMoreover, if he was the only one alive, he would be too big of a target and would be noticed by many people.
n
n
nIt would not benefit him in the future.
n
n
nWhen Jiang Lan looked at the three people, they finally regained their senses.
n
n
nOne of the men immediately said,
n
n
n“Stop him, I’ll report this back.”
n
n
nAfter saying that, he ran away.
n
n
nJiang Lan didn’t care about the person who ran away. Instead, he walked towards the other two.
n
n
n“You’re not escaping?”
n
n
nJiang Lan looked at them and asked.
n
n
nHe could tell that they were afraid.
n
n
nAt this moment, the two of them exchanged glances before charging towards Jiang Lan.
n
n
n“I don’t believe you’re really that strong.”
n
n
nIt was impossible. The person before them was clearly only at the perfected stage of Qi Refinement.
n
n
nHow did he manage to kill one of them in a second?
n
n
nIt was just a moment. Just a short moment.
n
n
nIt was definitely not a matter of cultivation.
n
n
nIt was not impossible for it to be due to a Dharma treasure.
n
n
nThey’ll take their chances.
n
n
nJiang Lan looked at the two people who were rushing over and immediately appeared in front of them in a flash.
n
n
nBoom!
n
n
nWith a punch, the one that was closer to him was directly blasted into a bloody mist.
n
n
nWhen the other saw this scene, he immediately ran back in fear.
n
n
nHe was too powerful. He was too terrifying.
n
n
nIt was just a simple punch.
n
n
nThey had clearly used all their strength.
n
n
nBut they were still so weak in front of him.
n
n
nHe could not win against him.
n
n
nJiang Lan looked at him and took a step forward.
n
n
nHe activated the Nine Steps of Heavenly Travel.
n
n
nIn the next moment, Jiang Lan appeared beside the man. When the man saw the sudden appearance of the killer, he screamed.
n
n
nThen, he tried to escape in another direction.
n
n
nHowever…
n
n
nBoom!
n
n
nJiang Lan ended his fear.
n
n
nThe blood mist lingered in the air.
n
n
nThen, he walked forward, following the fleeing man without haste.
n
n
nThe other party’s words clearly told him that they had other accomplices.
n
n
nTherefore, Jiang Lan decided to take a look.
n
n
nIn order to not have to search for them himself, he let the other party lead the way.
n
n
nOf course, Jiang Lan would kill him before he reached them.
n
n
nIt would be troublesome to keep those who had witnessed his attack alive.
n
n
nAt this moment, a ball of mist appeared on Jiang Lan’s body.
n
n
nThe mist covered his face, figure, and his secrets.
n
n
nTwo different people would see two different situations.
n
n
nBut none of them would be able to see Jiang Lan’s face clearly.
n
n
nEven heavenly reading techniques couldn’t see into Jiang Lan’s past.
n
n
nThis was the divine power of the One Leaf Vision.
n
n
nAfter learning this, there was basically no one who could guess that it was him through other things.
n
n
nWhat they could find out was only the normal him.
n
n
nAs long as the One Leaf Vision was not broken apart, they would not be able to see his secrets.
n
n
nCurrently, Jiang Lan could only conceal his own heavenly secrets. He was unable to sense if anyone was trying to read into him.
n
n
nHowever, as his cultivation level increased, his One Leaf Vision would also become a divine power of a higher level.
n
n
nAt that time, as long as someone was reading him, he would notice it.
n
n
nJiang Lan walked in the mist. He didn’t use that small trick like earlier. It was as if he had merged into the mist, making it difficult for others to detect.
n
n
nNot long after, Jiang Lan felt a storm of power around him.
n
n
nThere were also countless growls.
n
n
n“I’ve reached?”
n
n
nJiang Lan didn’t feel like it was too far away.
n
n
n…
n
n
nIn the mountains, in an area where there was no fog, a group of demonic beasts attacked a defensive circle.
n
n
nThere were more than ten Kunlun disciples in the defensive circle.
n
n
nThey were covered in injuries.
n
n
nLeading them were two women, both at the Golden Core realm.
n
n
nAo Longyu was one of them.
n
n
nScales had appeared on Ao Longyu’s hands.
n
n
nDragon horns sprouted from her head.
n
n
nIt was just that her body was covered in blood. Some belonged to others and some were her own.
n
n
n“Someone is controlling the beasts.” As a dragon, Ao Longyu immediately discovered this.
n
n
n“If Senior Sister didn’t have a spell that could expel the fog, we wouldn’t have lasted until now.
n
n
nThose people are trying to use the mist and the beast tide to kill us, “said the woman beside Ao Longyu.
n
n
nShe was Lin Siya, a disciple from the Third Summit, and Ao Longyu’s junior sister.
n
n
nAs a Golden Core cultivator, she felt powerless as she looked at the beasts.
n
n
nShe wasn’t the only one. The Kunlun disciples behind her were completely helpless against the beast tide as well.
n
n
nThere was no escape.
n
n
n
