Chapter 56: Killing the Second Level of True Qi Realm
"Brother, that young man just now was the one who killed the Yang Hu brothers. We are no match for him. Once he finds out, won't we end up with the same fate as Yang Hu and the others?"
"Who said we were going to take action against him? We were just paid to do things and come here to monitor the young man. As long as we don't show any hostility, the young man will definitely not find out that we are secretly monitoring him."
"But, I'm still a little..."
"There are no buts, wealth can be found in danger..."
"Brother, I'm afraid that the other party won't admit it and won't give us the reward we promised."
"Don't think nonsense! I think that person's behavior is unusual, so he shouldn't refuse our commission."
The two of them communicated in low voices while eating, and occasionally glanced at the room where Xu Chen was.
"My intuition is correct. These two people are really spying on me. Entrusted by someone? I wonder who the person in the dark is? The Chen family? Or someone from other forces?"
Xu Chen shook his head.
If you want to determine the identity of the person behind it, it's very simple, just lead him out.
"Crunch~"
Pushing open the door, Xu Chen walked down to the second floor, then walked out of the inn, led the horse, and walked out of the city without any concealment.
Of the two people responsible for monitoring Xu Chen, one continued to follow, while the other ran to report the news.
After leaving the city, Xu Chen mounted his horse and deliberately slowed down.
"Where are the people?"
Tan Long chased him out in a hurry. When he saw the man responsible for following Xu Chen at the city gate, he asked eagerly.
"Going that way."
The man pointed to the road leading to the west.
Tan Long immediately chased after him.
Seeing Tan Long about to leave, the two of them immediately became anxious and stretched out their hands to stop Tan Long, "Wait a minute, where is the reward you promised?"
"roll!"
Tan Long's eyes flashed with a stern look, he moved his wrist, and with two pops, the two of them fell into a pool of blood.
Tan Long didn't even look at the two people who died tragically. He used his spiritual power and ran wildly.
Soon.
Tan Long saw the backs of a man and a horse at the end of the road.
Xu Chen, who deliberately slowed down, felt a strange movement behind him and knew that the person behind the scenes was finally chasing him.
He did not look back and continued to ride his horse forward for a certain distance. When he was in a sparsely populated area, he slowly turned around, looked at Tan Long who was running towards him, and asked, "Who are you? Why are you chasing me?"
Tan Long stopped thirty meters away from Xu Chen and said coldly: "It doesn't matter who I am, what matters is that you will definitely die today."
Xu Chen asked calmly: "Can't you let me die and understand?"
"You'd better go down and be a fool!"
The soil beneath Tan Long's feet exploded, and his figure suddenly rushed out, charging towards Xu Chen.
"Second level of true energy realm?"
After Xu Chen felt the aura emanating from Tan Long's body, a coldness gradually appeared on his face, "In order to kill me, he actually sent a warrior at the second level of the True Qi Realm. You really think highly of me!"
He took a step forward, and several thick cracks opened on the ground. He raised the Qingzhi Sword in his right hand, and after a moment of charging, he slashed down with the sword like lightning.
"The Swift Wind Sword Technique, the First Style: Soft Wind Blows the Face!"
"The worm shakes the tree!"
Tan Long sneered.
A punch.
"boom!"
The thick sword energy that came towards him was directly shaken away by the force of the fist.
"The clouds are calm and the wind is gentle!"
The first sword failed, and the second sword followed.
Before Tan Long could destroy the second sword energy, Xu Chen suddenly raised the Qingzhi sword in his hand and struck out the third sword.
"Autumn leaves fall!"
Tan Long's expression changed slightly.
He originally thought that he already understood Xu Chen's methods very well, but now he realized that Xu Chen did not try his best in the Qingling Sect's inner sect competition. At least now, Xu Chen did not try his best to deal with his sword skills.
Than used.
What a monster!
If this child is not cured, he will become a serious trouble!
Tan Long clenched his big hand, and a sword appeared in his hand. His speed did not slow down, and he slashed out two swords while running, using his absolute strength to resolve the two swords of Yun Dan Feng Qing and Qiu Feng Luo Ye.
"Xu Chen, if you have any other means, use them all before you die!"
Tan Long held a sword in his hand and strode towards Xu Chen.
"as you wish."
Xu Chen took a step forward and slashed out with the sword in his hand.
“Ride the wind and waves!”
This sword seemed to have gone through hardships and cut through layers of waves, possessing an indomitable and powerful momentum.
"Break it for me!"
Tan Long jumped up.
The knife in his hand bloomed with brilliance.
"boom!"
With a loud noise, the sword energy collapsed again, but this time, Tan Long was not relaxed either.
To defeat this sword, he used 80% of his strength.
"Wind and lingering clouds!"
Xu Chen's attacks continued.
"The storm is rising!"
"Flying like lightning!"
At this moment, the relaxed look on Tan Long's face had long since disappeared. He did not dare to hold back anymore and waved his sword to resist Xu Chen's attack.
"Boom boom boom!!!"
Three loud noises in a row.
After the last loud noise, Tan Long grunted and staggered back a step.
He, who was at the second level of the True Qi Realm, was actually shocked and took a step back during the fight with Xu Chen.
Although he was not injured, it was a great shame and humiliation.
He raised his head suddenly and looked at Xu Chen with ferocious eyes.
His expression became startled.
"Why did these monsters suddenly appear?"
In his sight, he was surrounded by giant wolves with scarlet eyes.
"Roar~"
As the alpha wolf gave the order, the wolves started to kill Tan Long one after another like a tide.
Tan Long's heart froze, and before he had time to think about it, he swung his knife to kill the giant wolves that were charging towards him one after another.
One wave after another.
Never ending.
After he killed countless giant wolves, he suddenly realized something, and his expression changed drastically: "No, where is Xu Chen? Where are the others? And where is this place?"
"break!"
He roared and began to struggle to escape from the dream.
"Isn't the dream-eating wolf's injury completely healed yet? But it's enough!"
Tan Long suddenly remembered a familiar voice in his ears.
Immediately afterwards.
The world is broken.
He returned to reality.
But then a sword light in his pupils expanded rapidly.
"No~"
His pupils contracted sharply.
"Pfft!"
Blood spurts.
Tan Long covered his neck in fear, and a large amount of blood seeped out between his fingers.
Only then did he see that a giant wolf with blood-red fur appeared beside Xu Chen. That giant wolf was, yes, the Dream Devouring Wolf?!
Was he just pulled into a dream by the Dream-eating Wolf?
Tan Long realized this but it was too late because he had already suffered fatal injuries.
"Kill, kill, I, will, will... there will be more powerful people coming to kill you, cough cough... cough, the protectors... they will not let you go..."
Tan Long's words stretched the aorta in his neck, and with every word he spoke, a large amount of blood seeped out from between his fingers.
Soon, his clothes and the soil under his feet were soaked with blood.
"Dharma protector?"
Xu Chen narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you a remnant of the Blood God Sect?"
Tan Long didn't speak, but his expression already told Xu Chen the answer he wanted.
Xu Chen's heart sank.
Unexpectedly, the opponent was not a warrior sent by the Chen family, but a remnant of the Blood God Sect.
Compared to the Blood God Sect that once swept Qingzhou, the Chen family, one of the eight major families in the Taishang Kingdom, is not worth mentioning.
He was targeted by the Blood God Cult and sent people to assassinate him. It seems that he has been put on the Blood God Cult's must-kill list.
"The Blood God Sect that once ravaged Qingzhou has been destroyed. Now there are only the remnants of the Blood God Sect. Everyone shouts to beat me. If they want to kill me, they can only do it secretly..."
"As long as my strength grows fast enough, what does the Blood God Sect have to fear?"
Xu Chen's eyes were firm.
Instead of scaring him, the Blood God Cult aroused his fighting spirit.
"Plop!"
Tan Long couldn't hold on anymore, his head tilted and rolled down from his body, a large amount of blood spurted out from the headless neck cavity.
"Roar~"
The Dream Devouring Wolf roared, swooped over, and bit Tan Long's head. With a click, Tan Long's head shattered like a watermelon...
Xu Chen frowned.
If the Dream Devouring Wolf wants to grow rapidly, in addition to taking soul-like elixirs of heaven and earth, it also needs to continuously eat human brains.
The stronger the person is, the greater the help his brain will be to the Dream Devouring Wolf.
Xu Chen felt disgusted in his heart, but he didn't stop him. On the one hand, it was because Tan Long was his enemy and there was no need for him to be merciful. On the other hand, he needed the Dream Eater Wolf to grow up quickly.
After waiting for the Dream Eater Wolf to finish eating, Xu Chen put it into the beast's bag, took away Tan Long's storage ring, then jumped on the horse, flicked his whip, and galloped away like lightning.
…
Return to the sect.
Xu Chen rushed directly to the mission hall.
"Elder, I will hand over the task."
There was a counter in the task hall. Behind the counter sat an elder who was responsible for handing over tasks. Xu Chen walked into the hall and ran straight over.
The elder sitting behind the counter said without raising his head: "Task list, task credentials."
Xu Chen took out the task list as instructed.
The elder stretched out his hand to take it, and when he saw it, he was stunned.
