Chapter 182 Pupils of the Vermillion Bird

“Wait!”

A delicate shout came from behind. But it was fine if this woman didn’t make a sound. Once she did, Zhao Jin, who was searching for the payment, didn’t stop at all. Instead, he sped up! He stuffed the bank notes into the boss’ arms. “Alright, my lord is buying all of it!” Zhao Jin said smugly, “What wait, you can wait for it yourself!”

When the woman entered and saw this scene, her face instantly darkened. The boss held the bank notes in his hand and was momentarily stunned.

How fast…

Su Wen looked at the woman. She was tall and slender, and there was a long sword hanging from her waist. It was obvious that she was dressed like a martial artist.

Cultivation… not too high… 3rd Stage Earth Rank. To Su Wen, it was nothing. The woman looked at the boss unhappily and said angrily, “What are you doing?! Didn’t we agree to put it on hold for me for a week!” The shop owner looked at the lady and smiled bitterly. “Dear customer, I didn’t agree to it. You didn’t even leave any money as a deposit. How could I leave this beast for you? Naturally, it’s for whoever buys it.” The woman turned to Su Wen and said in a deep voice, “I’m a disciple of the Bright God Sect, Xue Qianxun. Brother, can you let me have the cub?”

“Sure… 10 million taels!” Su Wen nodded and casually said. “You!” Qianxun was enraged. Wasn’t this just inflating the price?” She had already gone all out to borrow seven million taels of silver from the sect. After all, the Blue Cloud Tiger was a wind-attributed vicious beast and was compatible with her cultivation technique.

Vicious beasts were by nature closer to heaven and earth than humans. She had a mystic technique that allowed her to use this Blue Cloud Tiger to gain insight into the world. However, Su Wen had raised the price by three million taels. How could she afford it? Gritting her teeth, she said in a deep voice, “Brother, this thing is really useful to me. If you’re willing to transfer it to me, Qianxun will owe you a favor. As long as there’s anything you want, I’ll agree to it!” Su Wen looked at the woman in front of him. Her skin was fair and she had long legs… Although her clothes were loose, Su Wen could tell from her sharp eyes that she was quite well endowed.

“Then accompany me for a night and I’ll transfer it to you!” Su Wen said.

The moment he said that, Qianxun’s jaw dropped. How could he say such a shameless thing in broad daylight! “Dream on!” Su Wen was indignant. “Is there something wrong with you? You can say whatever you want, but I can’t even suggest for us to sleep together Then I cannot expect any sort of d*mned promise from you. Go get lost and find elsewhere else to chill!” After saying that, Su Wen looked at the boss and said with dissatisfaction, “Hurry up and kill the vicious beast. Bring that whatever Blue Cloud Tiger over to Young Master. What are you waiting for?” The boss quickly responded and ordered his men to kill the adult vicious beast and bring the cub over. Xue Qianxun stood rooted on the spot, unable to advance or retreat. She looked at Su Wen and pondered, Why don’t I agree to it first? Once I get the Blue Cloud Tiger, I can find an opportunity to escape!” As her thoughts raced, she leaned closer to Su Wen and whispered, “I promise you.” “Give the money to Zhao Jin first. Come back with me tonight and leave tomorrow morning with the cub,” Su Wen said calmly. He could tell that this woman was not sincere at all. “You! Shameless!”

Upon hearing that, the woman immediately knew that she wouldn’t be able to gain any advantage if she did as Su Wen said. Su Wen rolled his eyes. “Hehe, there are many shameless things in this world. Who do you think you are? You want me to just hand it over to you? Aren’t you the shameless one?” Qianxun stomped her feet and did not say anything more. However, she had another thought. ‘This person doesn’t seem to have any cultivation, if all else fails, I can… but this guard of his, I can’t see what his cultivation is, but he’s definitely above me…’ Xue Qianxun was a proud daughter of heaven, so she never expected that Su Wen, who looked to be a few years younger than her, would have a cultivation level that was more than a level higher than hers.

Just as she was thinking, the boss came out with a huge python corpse. At the same time, there was a small Blue Cloud Tiger cub with a magic seal around its neck. The boss commented, “Although this cub is young, if the magic collar is released, it can also condense wind blades to hurt people. So, you have to find a way to get along with it and tame it before we can release the magic collar.” “Will this corpse and tiger cub will be sent back to your residences?” Su Wen shook his head slightly and said, “There’s no need for that. Zhao Jin, put the Fire Horn Python’s corpse into the spirit artifact. As for this baby, you can carry it!” Living things could not enter spirit artifacts. Zhao Jin walked forward and put away the Fire Horned Python’s corpse. He took the cage containing the Blue Cloud Tiger cub and looked at it.

This tiger looked similar to an ordinary tiger, except that it was completely snow-white and had a pair of fleshy wings on its back! At this moment, he roared fiercely at Zhao Jin!

Zhao Jin laughed, “Young master, this thing is quite interesting.” The two of them carried the cage out of the shop. Xue Qianxun gritted her teeth and followed after them. Just as they stepped out of the shop, Su Wen caught sight of someone walking towards him. The other party was Xu Longzun. Su Wen immediately noticed him at first glance. This person’s body was filled with murderous intent and was incompatible with their surroundings. Most importantly, he looked rather similar to Xu Qiao.

Su Wen narrowed his eyes but did not back down.

He walked over step by step. As he walked, his muscles tensed up, ready to strike at any moment.

Finally, when they were two meters apart, they stopped. Each of them had a guard following them.

However, Zhao Jin was carrying a cage. It was inevitable that it would be inconvenient for them to fight. At this moment, Xue Qianxun also sensed an unusual aura surging up. That guy’s cultivation was so high? The capital was indeed filled with crouching tigers and hidden dragons.

“Brat, you’re blocking my way.” Xu Longzun growled. Su Wen smiled. “And then?”

“Then I’ll naturally beat you to death!” Xu Longzun didn’t hesitate at all! He brazenly punched out! Su Wen’s eyes widened! He did not expect this fellow to be so direct! Despite being caught by surprise, Su Wen countered with a punch.

Pa!

Violent True Qi clashed! Su Wen took a few steps back!

With both sides using a Heaven Rank cultivation technique, Su Wen’s advantage was not as obvious. He had fallen into a disadvantage and was being suppressed. Moreover, he could not activate the Holy Flames!

There were only civilians nearby. If Su Wen were to activate his Holy Flames, there would probably be many people who would be burned alive!

Even so, as their True Qi clashed, the scattered Qi forces had already sent the surrounding people flying One of them had his head directly hit a rock by the side and his brain exploded. Su Wen narrowed his eyes and looked at Xu Longzun before speaking in a deep voice, “You’re going too far by attacking me here!” Seeing that a conflict had broken out, the citizens had already scattered in all directions! The originally bustling and noisy street was instantly devoid of people. People hid far away and watched the two of them as they pointed at them.

Xu Longzun said in a deep voice, “You caused my brother’s death, so I’ll kill you on the streets today!”

As he spoke, he moved forward, his aura growing stronger! Su Wen burst into laughter. “Xu Longcheng, that piece of trash! What does his failure to pass the mystic realm have to do with me?” Xu Longzun assumed his stance and sneered. “You think I don’t know? You and that Wu Lie humiliated my younger brother before entering the realm, causing his heart of martial arts to suffer a setback! That’s why he didn’t get through the final heart tempering tribulation. I’ll kill you first, then settle the score with Wu Lie!” Su Wen pursed his lips and said, “If you put it that way, who knows, it might be a psychological trauma caused by your father beating him up when he was young. If I were you, I would kill your father first before settling the score with us!”

“Your sharp tongue won’t save you. Die!”

Pa!

Xu Longcheng stomped on the ground and charged straight at Su Wen. “F*ck your father!”

On the side, Zhao Jin’s right arm bracelet had fallen to the ground, and his thick, white-furred beast arm had appeared once more. He viciously swung it, smashing it towards Xu Longzun! “Accept death obediently!” Xu Longzun’s guard also attacked at the moment Zhao Jin moved. The sword tore through the air, piercing straight towards Zhao Jin’s throat! Zhao Jin released the beast cage in his left hand, grabbing onto the long sword instead! Kacha! The longsword was caught in Zhao Jin’s hand, but there was no blood. There was only the sound of metal clashing. Zhao Jin’s skin was cut open, but beneath his skin was an unknown layer of metal. On the other side, Zhao Jin’s massive fist collided with Xu Longzun’s fist! “Seven Kills Army Shattering Fist!”

Xu Longzun boomed out.

The black killing intent on his body seemed to have gained substance as it soared into the sky! Who knew how many lives this fellow had taken!

He had probably killed countless people in the Northern Borders!

Pa!

The two of them collided! Zhao Jin’s eyes suddenly widened as he discovered that he was actually not a match!

The combat power that Xu Longzun had unleashed in an instant was even stronger than the 9th Grade Earth Rank powerhouse he had encountered before.

Zhao Jin’s fist was knocked aside!

Right at this moment, Xu Longzun suddenly discovered that Su Wen had already rushed to his side.

Su Wen pointed out with a finger! “Sunburst Spirit Finger!” Golden flames gathered at Su Wen’s fingertips and turned into a gold beam of light. Xu Longzun could already tell that this was an extraordinary move, and he hurriedly raised his other hand to meet it! Bang! As Su Wen’s finger tapped Xu Longzun’s palm, a conflagration of Holy Flames suddenly erupted. With no civilians around, how could Su Wen hold back?

The violent holy flames and black killing intent clashed! In terms of cultivation base, Su Wen was indeed slightly weaker, but Su Wen had timed this attack precisely when Xu Longzun and Zhao Jin exchanged a punch. Xu Longzun was unable to defend in time, but Su Wen was attacking with full force.

Furthermore, Su Wen’s energy was even more condensed since he used his finger to tap on the other’s palm! With this, even though the difference in cultivation was still there, he did not suffer a loss.

The Holy Flames and killing intent intertwined!

The effects of a Heaven Rank martial technique was fully displayed here. Unlike his previous opponent, Xu Longzun was protected by a cold killing intent and was completely unharmed by the Holy Flames. “Haha! Brat, you have some strength! No wonder Longcheng wasn’t your match! However, I, Xu Longzun, will definitely kill you here today!” Xu Longzun let out a long laugh as his energy swept out, extinguishing the flames. On the other side, Zhao Jin was also being held back by that guard!

This time, Xu Longzun came prepared, and his guard was at the peak of 8th Grade. Zhao Jin was unable to extricate himself in a short moment!

Su Wen frowned. There was still a gap between his cultivation base and Xu Longzun’s.

Both of them were using Heaven Rank techniques.

Even with the Holy Flames on him, he still wouldn’t be able to gain an advantage if they really fought.

It was not so easy to make up for a disparity of three Grades in their cultivation bases.

At this time, a spear appeared in Xu Longzun’s hand!

These General based families mostly specialized in such battle array weapons which could show its full might in the battlefield!

In the next second, Xu Longcheng’s murderous aura slowly gathered on the spear. It was exactly the same as the Seven Kills Army Shattering Fist!

It was obvious that his family’s spearmanship came from the same source.

Holy flames rose from Su Wen’s right eye! Pupils of the Vermillion Bird! In the face of Xu Longzun’s powerful aura, Su Wen knew that he had to find an alternative method to go against him! Xue Qianxun, who was watching the battle from afar, could not help but gulp. Their standard of strength was way too high. The younger generation of the martial world were simply a joke in front of them. Xu Longzun naturally also noticed Su Wen’s change. He frowned. What did that mean? Flames rose up in his eyes?

What cultivation technique was it? Why had he never seen it before?

Whoosh!

Xu Longzun still thrust out his long spear. But Su Wen remained unarmed! His movements were extremely fast as he stepped onto the Star Position and activated Stellar Transposition. Xu Longzun’s long spear only pierced through the air! After Su Wen entered the Earth Rank, his movement technique became even faster. Xu Longzun’s spear technique wasn’t slow, but Su Wen still dodged it. Bang! The violent spear force shot out, creating a huge hole in the surrounding shops! The battle between the two made the citizens on this street suffer. Xu Longzun’s spear stabbed repeatedly, but Su Wen dodged it every time. The surrounding houses were severely damaged in the aftermath of their battle! Su Wen discovered that he could clearly see Xu Longzun’s Qi force movements under the enhancement of the Vermilion Bird’s Pupils. He could even vaguely predict the trajectory of Xu Longzun’s spear. As he carefully recalled the fight between Heaven Rank experts, Su Wen realized that such a prediction did not exist. But now was not the time to consider the difference between the two. No matter how powerful Xu Longzun’s spear technique was, it was useless if he couldn’t hit Su Wen!

Both sides exchanged dozens of blows! Xu Longzun thrust out his spear again. And Su Wen suddenly charged forward! The cold body of the spear brushed past Su Wen’s face!

The force around the spear clashed with Su Wen’s protective true qi, gorging out a deep wound on Su Wen’s face!

Xu Longzun’s eyes went wide. How was this possible!?

One had to know that if Su Wen was a little further away, his move could be extended into a follow-up. But Su Wen had moved so close that even though he was injured by the force, he himself also lost the space to exert more force.

Right at this moment, Su Wen took one more step forward.

Xu Longzun switched his spear to one hand and punched out with the other! “It’s useless! The difference in our cultivation levels is so great, you can’t break through my defense!”

However, Su Wen didn’t try to dodge. Instead, he pointed a finger at Xu Longzun’s ribs. However, Xu Longzun’s fist also struck Su Wen’s head at the same time!

“Victory has been decided!” Xue Qianxun, who was watching the battle from afar, suddenly had this thought. Even though she felt that Su Wen’s move was extremely courageous… … But it was extremely unwise! A head injury would definitely affect the circulation of one’s True Qi. On the other hand, if he were to touch Xu Longzun now, it would not be worth it even if he were to exchange injuries for injuries!

Pa!

Su Wen was ruthlessly thrown out. Xu Longzun wanted to give chase again, but he suddenly discovered a violent flame Qi residing inside his body. Normally, when the enemy’s True Qi entered the body, it would at most cause damage. But for some reason, this force actually directly disrupted the circulation of the True Qi in his body!

“Pfft!”

Xu Longzun spat out a mouthful of blood. In the distance, Su Wen had already gotten up. There was actually a dent in his skull! Blood flowed down his forehead, making him look extremely miserable.

Xu Longzun began to laugh. His opponent’s injuries far worse than his!

However, what happened next left Xu Longzun flabbergasted. Su Wen’s skull actually recovered at a visible rate.

The wound on his face healed rapidly! He ended up looking completely unharmed! Su Wen asked curiously, “Young Master Xu, how do you feel?” In fact, while he was fighting with Xu Longcheng, a red dot suddenly appeared under his ribs.

Su Wen didn’t know what this thing meant, but he instinctively had the urge to attack that exact spot.

Hence, Su Wen took the risk and went forward! He focused his attack on that one point! When Xu Longzun saw that Su Wen’s injuries had recovered, he was greatly alarmed and shouted, “Die!” He wanted to brandish his spear in anger, but the True Qi in his body was still out of control. He tried to forcefully activate it, but only got himself more injured! “Pfft!”

He spat out another mouthful of blood. Xu Longzun dropped to one knee, his face filled with astonishment! What was going on? However, no matter what he thought, Su Wen didn’t care. He immediately rushed forward and punched Xu Longzun’s head! Take his life while he’s sick! Su Wen punched again and again. ‘Kill this bastard!’ This thought appeared in Su Wen’s mind.

‘No! I can’t kill him! If I kill him, it’ll only make it worse… but I have to think of a way to get rid of the Xu family…’ Su Wen knew that after today, the enmity between the Xu family and him would deepen.

He had to think of a way to sentence the other party to death!

Including Xu Qiao! Su Wen roared, “Xu Longzun, you killed the citizens on the streets and attacked the government officials! According to the law, you should be executed. Today, I will arrest you as the commander of the Secret Shadow Guard!”

“What a good brat, you actually refused arrest!”

Pa!

Su Wen punched straight towards Xu Longzun’s dantian! He couldn’t kill him, but destroying his Qi sea was still something he dared to do.

However, right at this moment, Xu Longzun, who had his Qi Sea destroyed, discovered that Su Wen was also sent flying as blood spewed from his mouth. He landed on the ground and struggled to get up. “How dare you… do such a vicious attack…” In the chaos, no one could see what was going on.

Everyone present only saw Su Wen rushing forward to attack Xu Longzun, but in the end, he was also sent flying. But Xu Longzun knew in his heart that Su Wen wasn’t hit by him. On the other hand, his Qi Sea had been destroyed by Su Wen, and his cultivation base had been completely wasted. “Young Master!” “Young Master!” Both guards stopped their fight.

Zhao Jin quickly landed beside Su Wen. Su Wen’s face was pale and his breathing was weak.

The other guard also landed in front of Xu Longzun. One look at his face and they knew that his Qi Sea had been destroyed and his cultivation base crippled!

“If anything happens to my young master, I won’t let you off!”

Zhao Jin and the other guard roared at the same time.

All of them carried their young master and ran away.

However, the anxious Zhao Jin had forgotten to take the cage in his haste. Xue Qianxun’s eyes lit up, and she quickly grabbed and ran away with the cage.

Su Wen opened his eyes in Zhao Jin’s arms and gritted his teeth with all his might. “You f*cking idiot! My Blue Cloud Tiger was taken away by that woman!” “Huh?”

Only after Su Wen spoke did Zhao Jin recall the Blue Cloud Tiger cub they had purchased. But when he turned around, he realized that the cage was gone… “Don’t look for it anymore. Take me home! Go find my father!”
