Chapter 709: Chapter 706: Xuu Zhuang

Jiang Jichen’s voice instantly captured everyone’s attention.

Everyone stopped fighting at the same time and turned to look at Jiang Jichen.

"It’s that Young Master Jiang!"

The expressions of everyone present changed.

Back in the main hall of the Wanjue Inn, everyone had seen Jiang Jichen.

So, of course, they all recognized him at a glance.

These people didn’t know Jiang Jichen’s full name; they only knew him as Young Master Jiang.

And so, that’s what everyone called him now.

"Ignore him! Grab the short sword first!"

someone shouted.

Then, the crowd temporarily ignored Jiang Jichen and resumed their fight for the notched Black Short Sword.

But the Elite Holy Dao Fifth Realm cultivator from the Undead Race had just slain the Holy Dao Fourth Realm Human Race Cultivator.

Now closest to the notched Black Short Sword, he struck like lightning, easily snatching it into his grasp.

But the next moment, he was surrounded by the group of Holy Dao Cultivators.

Just then, another figure came rushing over from the distance. Seeing the crowd, this person froze for a moment.

And in that brief moment of hesitation, a woman’s sharp cry rang out: "Xuu the Lecher, where do you think you’re going? If I don’t turn you into a eunuch today, then my name isn’t Qian Zhijing!"

Amidst the cry, a dozen or so figures flickered into view, appearing from all directions and surrounding everyone—Jiang Jichen and the group of cultivators fighting for the notched Black Short Sword included.

Immediately after, a fiery red figure, like a burning cloud, drifted down from the sky and landed before the crowd.

It was a young woman dressed in red. With a gorgeous face and a sultry figure, she was a rare beauty.

But from the sound of her voice just now, it was clear she was also a girl with an incredibly fiery temper.

And she... possessed the cultivation of a Genius Saint Sixth Realm, while her thirteen subordinates were all at the Elite Saint Fifth Realm.

A force like this, appearing at the border between the front and middle sections of the Valley of Ten Thousand Extremes, naturally possessed immense deterrent power.

"Miss Qian Zhijing, you’ve been hunting me for a whole month. I’ve fled into the Valley of Ten Thousand Extremes, and you still won’t give up. Must you be so ruthless?"

The man called Xuu the Lecher, his face haggard, spoke with a miserable expression.

"Hmph! Sneaking into my room, using a Holy-grade Enchanting Fragrance, trying to have your way with me... You dared to tarnish my reputation like that! Even if you flee to the ends of the earth, I swear I will castrate you,"

Qian Zhijing said coldly.

The faces of several people changed.

Qian Zhijing of the Eastern Land was famous. She was known for her immense power and explosive temper, ready to kill at the slightest disagreement.

And now, hearing her words, someone had actually dared to try and have his way with *her*?

Who was this brave warrior? That was just too audacious, wasn’t it?

’To think that a Flower-Picking Thief could reach such a level of daring is truly admirable,’ the crowd marveled.

The haggard-faced man cried out, "Granny Qian, this... this is all a complete misunderstanding! Besides, I didn’t even succeed, did I?"

"Didn’t succeed? Heh heh... Xuu Zhuang, are you saying you still *wanted* to succeed?"

Qian Zhijing asked coldly.

Xuu Zhuang, the infamous Flower-Picking Thief of the Eastern Land, turned deathly pale upon hearing Qian Zhijing’s words.

’I’d rather kill myself today than fall into Qian Zhijing’s hands,’ Xuu Zhuang thought with tragic resolve.

At that moment, Qian Zhijing turned to the Holy Dao Fifth Realm Undead Cultivator holding the notched Black Short Sword and said, "You all can leave, but the Black Short Sword stays!"

Qian Zhijing sounded incredibly domineering, her voice leaving no room for argument.

"What? Qian Zhijing? You’re too tyrannical! You just arrived and you’re already trying to take the short sword!"

The Holy Dao Cultivator holding the Black Short Sword said angrily.

"Supreme Treasures belong to the strong. You are too weak. Those who disobey will die!"

Qian Zhijing’s domineering, powerful voice rang out.

The fiery-tempered woman truly lived up to her reputation, ready to kill at the drop of a hat.

"You... If we join forces against you, Qian Zhijing, you won’t have an easy time either!"

another Holy Dao expert shouted.

The Flower-Picking Thief, Xuu Zhuang, also shouted from the side, "Everyone, I have no designs on the Black Short Sword, but I’m willing to help all of you fight this tyrannical woman, Qian Zhijing, to the bitter end!"

Xuu Zhuang was cunning. He knew there was no escape for him, so his only chance of survival was to unite the crowd against Qian Zhijing.

Jiang Jichen stood watching from the side, completely ignored by the crowd.

By now, Qian Zhijing’s temper had flared. She swept her cold gaze across the crowd and said, "Fine. Since none of you want to live, I’ll just kill you all. At least then I’ll have some peace and quiet!"

"Attack! Kill them all, leave no one alive!"

After Qian Zhijing gave the order, her thirteen subordinates at the Elite Saint Fifth Realm attacked at once.

PFFT!

A few Elite Holy Dao Third Realm cultivators who didn’t react in time were instantly cut down, their bodies turning to ash and dissipating.

"What a waste!"

Seeing this, Jiang Jichen once again felt a pang of regret.

And at that moment, an Elite Saint Fifth Realm cultivator from the Qian Family charged toward him as well.

A murderous glint flashed in Jiang Jichen’s eyes.

’That Black Short Sword is extraordinary. I’ve taken a liking to it.’

’Besides, even Qian Zhijing said it: Supreme Treasures belong to the strong.’

’And I consider myself the strongest one here!’

’Furthermore, Qian Zhijing is already trying to kill me. Why should I be polite?’

Therefore, facing the attack from this Qian Family’s Elite Saint Fifth Realm cultivator, Jiang Jichen certainly wouldn’t hold back.

As the Qian Family cultivator charged, he sneered, "Damn, a mere Saint Second Realm dares to enter this place? Let me take out this trash!"

The opponent attacked ruthlessly, but Jiang Jichen didn’t move an inch.

Only when the attacker was upon him did Jiang Jichen suddenly vanish from his spot.

"This..."

His killing blow having missed, the Qian Family cultivator froze for an instant.

CRACK!

But in the next moment, his body shuddered and then cracked apart, inch by inch. His Spirit Infant shot out in terror.

However, the Azure Heaven Killing Array and the Soul Refining Banner were faster. A sinister wind swept past, and his body and Spirit Infant were instantly turned into a bloody mist, devoured by the Azure Heaven Killing Array.

By now, the Azure Heaven Killing Array and the Soul Refining Banner were working with Jiang Jichen in perfect, unspoken harmony.

No one could escape from Jiang Jichen by means of their Spirit Infant; they were all annihilated by the Soul Refining Banner and the Azure Heaven Killing Array.

This all happened in the blink of an eye.

By the time everyone else could react, Jiang Jichen had already flashed to the side of the Holy Dao Fifth Realm Undead Race cultivator who was holding the Black Short Sword.

"Supreme Treasures belong to the strong. In that case, this Black Short Sword naturally belongs to me."

As he spoke, he swept out with Sinking Mountain.

At the same time, his hand shot out like lightning, and he had already snatched the Black Short Sword.

The turn of events was blindingly fast!

Jiang Jichen had pushed his speed to the absolute limit.

Naturally, the result was absolutely astonishing.
