Chapter 569: Chapter 569 Please Wait, Senior (4th Update)
All the men and women were gaping at the scene before them.
When Xue An had first appeared, they all rejoiced, believing they had been saved.
But upon seeing that he was a Hua Clan man without cultivation, they fell into despair once again.
Yet, to everyone’s surprise, this Hua Clan man ended the life of the leader of the ferocious spirit sect with a single punch!
At this moment, the remaining disciples of the ferocious spirit sect displayed expressions of extreme fear and began to roar angrily.
“Our incense master has been killed! If we don’t take this guy down, we’re all going to die!”
“All in!”
Although these disciples of the ferocious spirit sect were quite weak in cultivation, the death of their incense master meant they had to avenge him or face torture and death upon their return!
So now, with bloodshot eyes, they went all out, unleashing their magical treasures.
Ferocious Spirit Sect.
As the name implies, it’s a sect that manipulates malevolent spirits and evil ghosts.
As these disciples made their move, fierce and towering evil spirits materialized and rushed towards Xue An.
These men and women also took a step back, overwhelmed by the formidable aura of these evil spirits, their faces showing shock.
However, faced with such an assault, Xue An remained calm and simply raised his hand to snap his fingers lightly.
Snap.
With this crisp sound,
The once furious evil spirits let out a miserable howl and shattered in response, vanishing without a trace.
Huh?
The woman who had just spoken was shaken to her core, looking at Xue An in disbelief.
How could this be possible?
Just a snap of his fingers wiped out so many evil spirits?
Those remaining members of the ferocious spirit sect were even more astonished,
for they were bound to these evil spirits, hence the destruction of the spirits dealt them a heavy blow.
At this point, Xue An, somewhat impatiently, reached back with his hand, “Lend me your sword for a moment!”
With these indifferent words, the woman’s sword suddenly flew out, landing in Xue An’s hand.
Xue An flicked the tip of the sword.
The sword, clear as autumn water, emitted a crisp ringing sound.
Xue An nodded in approval, “Nice sword!”
Having said that, he lifted the sword and made a horizontal slash.
A dazzling streak of sword light swept across the sky.
After the sword light passed,
All the members of the ferocious spirit sect froze in place, a line of blood appearing above their throats.
At first, the line was faint, but in the blink of an eye, it turned bright red and then blood fountains spurted out.
Then the heads of these people soared into the air, their bodies collapsing dead.
The momentum of the sword light didn’t stop there; it continued, slicing through dozens of large trees before finally fading away.
As a series of sounds of tree trunks breaking resounded, these large trees slowly fell to the ground.
The woman was utterly astonished.
As someone who practiced the sword, she could clearly see how terrifying Xue An’s seemingly ordinary slash was.
It could even be said to have reached the level of artlessness in its mastery.
With such Sword Dao cultivation, this man was no ordinary person.
At that moment, Xue An said lightly, “The sword is not bad! I’m returning it to you!”
As he spoke, he casually threw the sword behind him, and a streak of sword light shot directly towards the woman.
A cry of alarm came from the people behind the woman.
But the woman didn’t dodge, for she didn’t sense any killing intent from the sword.
Sure enough,
As the sword light approached, it went straight back into its sheath.
Only then did these people breathe a sigh of relief.
So he was just returning the sword!
Xue An took a step to leave.
The woman had recovered from her initial shock and hurriedly stepped forward to bow with hands clasped.
“Senior, please wait!”
Xue An said indifferently, “Is there anything else?”
“Thank you for your rescue. I am Lian Yunting, daughter of the fortress master of Feiyan Fortress!”
Lian Yunting first introduced herself.
At these words, Xue An nodded slightly and said, “And then?”
“Huh?” Lian Yunting was somewhat taken aback.
In her view, although her family’s Feiyan Fortress could not compare to the mighty Wuwang Sect, it was still considered a local sect. Yet, the expression of this man from the Hua Clan seemed as if he had never heard of them.
“If there’s nothing else, I’ll be leaving,” said Xue An as he turned to leave.
“Senior, where might you be heading?” Lian Yunting hesitated for a moment before quickly asking.
“Bafang Mountain!” Xue An replied without turning his head.
“Could Senior also be coming for the True Immortal Relics?” Lian Yunting inquired.
Xue An stopped in his tracks, turned around, and looked at her with a smile that was not quite a smile, “You know of the True Immortal Relics as well?”
Lian Yunting painfully smiled and said, “Now, who doesn’t know that the True Immortal Relics are about to appear? Almost all the cultivators from the Northwest have rushed here!”
“So what if they have?” Xue An spoke indifferently.
Lian Yunting quickly continued, “Senior, I mean no disrespect. It’s just that my family’s Feiyan Fortress holds some power in Bafang City. If Senior doesn’t mind, you could come with me to Feiyan Fortress to wait. It would also allow me to repay you for saving my life. What do you think?”
Xue An pondered for a moment.
Behind Lian Yunting, the several young men and women started whispering to each other.
“What’s gotten into Second Miss?”
“Indeed! This man from the Hua Clan has no cultivation level. What use would he be at our fortress?”
Lian Yunting turned her head and glared fiercely at the group.
They immediately closed their mouths and dared not speak further.
At this point, Xue An nodded, “Very well!”
“Thank you, Senior!” Lian Yunting was overjoyed.
When they reached the main road,
the coachman was still waiting for Xue An.
Seeing Xue An return safely, the coachman let out a sigh of relief, “Young man, you’ve finally come back!”
Xue An slightly smiled.
Although the coachman was a bit timid, he was quite an agreeable person.
“These…” As the coachman noticed Lian Yunting nearby, he saw that everyone was dressed lavishly, and they all exuded a powerful aura, which made him shrink back in fear.
“No worries. These are some people I happened to meet, um… what’s it called? People from Feiyan Fortress!”
Feiyan Fortress!
Upon hearing this name, the coachman turned pale with fright.
His body trembled.
“You should return on your own! There’s no need to proceed any farther,” Xue An said, paying the coachman’s fee for the horse and carriage.
Of course, the coachman was extremely grateful. He did not wish to stay a moment longer in the presence of these “Immortals,” and quickly left after receiving the money.
Lian Yun watched this scene with surprise in her eyes.
If she had not witnessed Xue An slay over a dozen disciples of the Xiongling Sect with a single sword stroke and crush the sect leader’s head with a punch,
it would have been hard for Lian Yunting to imagine that this man, who was amiable with the coachman, could be a merciless killer.
Which aspect really represented him? Lian Yunting felt somewhat puzzled.
Meanwhile, Lian Yunting’s subordinate had already released a Messenger Talisman Bird.
A short while later, the rumbling sound of horse hooves could be heard in the distance.
In the blink of an eye, a large troop of Cornered Horses charged over. Once they drew near, the leading man dismounted, “Second Miss!”
Lian Yunting snorted coldly but ignored him, turning instead to Xue An, “Senior, please follow me!”
As Lian Yunting and Xue An mounted their Cornered Horses and led the way,
the young man trailed behind, his eyes flickering as he periodically gazed at Xue An’s back, clearly deep in thought.
