Chapter 252: Chapter 143: Three Divine Light Swords, You Need to Feed Me_2
They never expected that Fang Qingzhu, a woman who heard she never engaged with others, only enjoying the praise of Jianghu’s young heroes while daily presenting a lofty, cold face, would employ such extraordinary tactics.
Nor did they expect that the Azure Dragon Seal was not just a certificate or symbol of authority but could also unleash an invisible water wave that seals the surroundings and stagnates one’s body.
Xiongba and the others looked anxious. Even though they were far away, they were terrified, afraid of retreating too slowly and following in Zheng Yuanchun’s footsteps.
In contrast, Xiao Chengyun’s eyes suddenly turned fierce, and his refined and gentle demeanor instantly turned blood-red.
With a pull of his left hand, he tore off the gray cloth coat he was wearing, and with a flick of his hand, it spun like a cloud, covering the Azure Dragon Seal.
His right hand’s sword was like a wandering dragon, his body was also like a wandering dragon, cutting through a white trace in the shimmering green waves, grabbing the golden seal and retreating swiftly.
This man is indeed worthy of being the East Wood Army’s military advisor, not only strong in power but also quick-witted.
In an instant, he saw where his chance of survival lay.
The dragon seal’s azure light exploded, affecting both friend and foe, even enveloping the guardian and the round-faced little girl, making everyone’s movements sluggish.
The only unaffected person was Fang Qingzhu.
In this situation, with Fang Qingzhu’s Earth List ranking at twenty-three and her cultivation swordsmanship, killing these slow-moving and slow-thinking opponents of the same level was akin to slaughtering chickens.
If a method isn’t devised to stop it and face it head-on, Greed Wolf Claw Zheng Yuanchun serves as a real example.
Even escape becomes difficult.
Therefore, he saw through the issue at a glance and focused on breaking the Azure Dragon Seal first.
Once the coat covered it, sure enough, the stagnant and heavy azure ripples suddenly contracted, no longer affecting everyone.
Xiao Chengyun’s face filled with joy.
He didn’t bother to think too much... with a slight hook of his left hand, he dragged the Azure Dragon Seal along with the coat back.
His figure moved in and out, swiftly, and headed toward the main gate.
"Stop the demoness."
While escaping frantically, he shouted sharply, "If you don’t kill this woman, once targeted, none of you will escape."
Even amidst the chaos, his words seemed genuine and heartfelt, particularly persuasive.
Logically speaking, with the unexpected turn of events, Fang Qingzhu’s strength has become oddly mysterious.
Following his words and collaborating to first slay this woman and remove the greatest threat seems proper.
However, once spoken.
Neither Chen Ping nor Xiongba, nor Ji Xuanwu rushed back at Fang Qingzhu; instead, they retreated even faster.
No one is foolish.
It’s like saying, let us block Fang Qingzhu, and you, Xiao Chengfeng, escape with the seal.
The plan is quite crafty.
It’s a good strategy, but among temporary collaborators, there was no trust at all.
No way would they heed his command now.
Xiao Chengyun’s heart was filled with rage, but before he could open his mouth to curse, his form soaring through the air suddenly descended quickly as he sensed a sharp chill piercing directly toward his back.
[Four Seas Wandering Dragon]
Without turning, his sword light suddenly burst open, shielding his back.
His figure zigzagged in rapid movement, tracing a faint, curved shadow through the courtyard.
Whoosh...
The shadow of the Wandering Dragon suddenly exploded, and Xiao Chengyun’s speeding figure abruptly halted.
He found a layer of silver-white frost had appeared on his sword and right arm.
The next moment, a gentle breeze swept past, and his entire right arm turned into countless ice crystal blood clots, scattering onto the ground, and the Wandering Dragon Treasure Sword fell to the porcelain floor, making a soft clatter.
"My hand?"
Xiao Chengfeng’s face turned pale, and his gaze toward Fang Qingzhu became slightly frightened.
"Sunlight Divine Sword, melts blood and bones; Moonlight Divine Sword, freezes everything..." Fang Qingzhu’s expression remained calm as she flicked her fingers across the green bamboo sword.
"You snatch my Azure Dragon Seal, hurt my maid, and worst of all, you interrupt my meal. Take one more move of my Starlight Divine Sword."
Only a fool would take your Starlight Divine Sword.
Xiao Chengyun took a deep breath, and his form, like a kite, moved automatically, shooting obliquely into the air.
At the same time, he lightly shook his left hand’s coat, and a stream of golden light turned into a shooting star rushing toward Chen Ping.
"Catch the seal, hurry escape."
This sudden change was so swift that there was no time for thought, even Fang Qingzhu didn’t react instantly.
With one sword move, starlight collected its brilliance, ready to lock onto Xiao Chengyun for a thrust, she found that Azure Dragon Seal was already in front of Chen Ping. Her face showed slight hesitation, her gaze shifted, and she adjusted her sword tip, with a swish, it stabbed like lightning.
"Damn."
Reflexively, Chen Ping caught the Azure Dragon Seal in his hand.
Feeling the seal’s warm touch, his blood boiled inside.
Then, seeing Fang Qingzhu abandon the fleeing Xiao Chengyun and target him instead, he cursed inwardly.
Indeed, those capable of being military advisors in a faction all have black hearts; they are no good.
When several people launched a combined assault earlier, nothing was apparent.
Xiao Chengyun didn’t make any comments either.
Clearly, his Earth List ranking was ahead of Greed Wolf Claw Zheng Yuanchun; however, when Zheng Yuanchun was commanding and controlling the situation, he remained silent, obeying orders.
In reality, this approach was correct.
He saw the danger but didn’t say much to stop it.
Then, Zheng Yuanchun barely enjoyed a moment of glory before dying without a head.
Then, the Azure Dragon Seal’s azure light flickered, suppressing everyone, Fang Qingzhu again displayed an extraordinarily powerful sword technique, and under urgent circumstances, Xiao Chengyun’s cunning tactics emerged.
