Chapter 72 Murder outside the city
The guards at the city gate are mostly warriors in the body refining realm, and the guard captain among them is only at the third level of Qi Sea.
It is naturally impossible for a guy of this level of strength to stop Luo Xiu.
"Qiang!"
Every time the Shadow Sword cuts through the air and makes a sharp whistle, blood will splash and fly.
He knows very well that if he wants to survive in this world, he must not be merciful. He must be ruthless, ruthless, and decisive in dealing with his enemies!
The remaining shadows in the ten directions of Dacheng Realm did not slow down at all. Luo Xiu's speed increased instead of falling. The two guards who tried to close the city gate had their throats slit by the Shadow Sword before they could react.
"The brave maniac actually killed the city guards!"
There was a sound of wild beasts galloping. Luo Xiu looked back and saw Yan Qiu riding a one-horned horse chasing after him.
This one-horned mane horse is a level three monster with extremely fast feet. The instantaneous acceleration may not be as good as Luo Xiu, but it is extremely durable. It is not like Luo Xiu using his body skills to gallop, which consumes a lot of energy. .
"Mount!"
Seeing that the two heroes of Songshan could not catch up with Luo Xiu, Yan Qiu immediately shouted and asked these two innate masters to ride with him.
The back of the horn-maned horse is wide, so three people can ride together without being crowded, and the speed is not affected in the slightest.
The outline of Zuo Xingcheng became smaller and smaller behind him, becoming increasingly blurry.
Two hours later, Luo Xiu stopped and turned to look at the three people chasing after him on one-horned horses.
After two hours of running, this was a deserted and open grassland. In Luo Xiu's life perception, no other pursuers were found.
If there were just two innate first-level martial arts masters, Luo Xiu would not be afraid at all, so naturally there would be no need to escape.
As for Yan Qiu, who was at the sixth level of Qi Sea, he was ignored by Luo Xiu.
"Matsuyama Erxiong, you guys, please destroy this kid first." A sinister smile appeared on Yan Qiu's face.
Matsuyama Erxiong didn't say a word. Although they were innate martial arts masters, even if they were dealing with a Qi Hai martial artist, they both attacked at the same time.
This is a habit they have developed for more than ten years, and their cooperation in this habit has become more and more tacit, which allowed them to kill several innate third-level and even fourth-level masters in the first-level innate realm with the help of joint attacks.
The swords in the two men's hands were unsheathed. One of them slashed at Luo Xiu's arm, and the other slashed at Luo Xiu's legs. They obviously followed Yan Qiu's order to destroy his limbs first.
Luo Xiu could feel the tacit cooperation between the two heroes of Matsuyama, which almost blocked all his escape routes. No matter how sophisticated his movements were, it would be difficult to dodge this joint attack.
"Deadly Sword!"
Luo Xiu circulated his true energy, and the Netherworld Death Flame rose from the Shadow Sword, and he directly used the second form of the Aurora Sword Technique. Both the power and the speed of the sword were stronger than the first form of the Flash Sword.
There was no expression on the faces of Matsuyama Erxiong. They were very confident in their combined attack skills. Not to mention a Qihai warrior, even an innate martial artist could not escape intact.
But when Luo Xiu waved the sword in his hand, their eyes suddenly widened, and their pupils were full of shock.
"Qiang! Qiang!"
Two sonorous sounds sounded, sparks flew everywhere, and a cold energy containing death was transmitted to the body through the sword, making them feel that their life force was being continuously devoured and eroded.
"What a fast sword, what a weird energy!"
Matsuyama Erxiong's expression changed instantly. The two of them slashed out their swords almost at the same time, but the other party was able to block them at the same time. This shows that his sword-throwing speed was extremely fast, and he almost swung the two swords at the same time.
In the world of martial arts, speed is the only thing that cannot be broken. Although fast swords are scary, it is not difficult for Matsuyama Nixiong who is good at joint attacks.
But what really makes them fearful is the strange energy transmitted to the body through the sword. The arm holding the knife is affected by the energy and is a little numb.
The two of them didn't know that the energy transmitted by the Nether Death Flame through the collision of swords had damaged the life veins of their sword-holding arms. Because Luo Xiu's cultivation was low, the energy transmitted was not strong, otherwise it would only be This one blow can destroy one of their arms.
Compared with martial arts masters in the innate realm, Luo Xiu is even better than many innate martial arts masters in terms of martial arts and body skills.
The advantage of an innate martial artist lies in the powerful innate Qi that contains the power of attributes, and Luo Xiu's Netherworld Death Flame can just make up for this. This is what allows him to compete head-on with an innate martial artist.
Although his cultivation level is at the fifth level of Qi Sea, in all aspects of the whole, he has actually reached the level of around the fourth level of Xiantian.
Matsuyama Erxiong looked at each other, and without any words, they understood each other's meaning. The strange black energy was scary, so they planned to use a joint attack technique to win with one blow.
"Qingyun Shuanglong!"
Both Matsuyama and Erxiong's bodies glowed with cyan light. Their true energy contained the power of the wood attribute, which was the innate wood-based true energy.
They held a knife in one hand and cast seals in the other, and the innate true energy rays on their bodies merged together.
"Roar!"
There seemed to be a vague dragon roar, and the two heroes of Matsuyama slashed at the same time. The light of the two swords converged, forming a phantom-like green dragon, roaring and rushing towards Luo Xiu.
The power of this strike is comparable to a full-strength strike from a fourth-level innate martial artist.
Luo Xiu took out a yellow jade talisman from the storage ring, crushed it with force, and a curtain of light enveloped his body.
The jade talisman is a treasure refined by the array master. Luo Xiu used a third-level defensive jade talisman made of topaz.
"Aurora Sword!"
At the same time, Luo Xiu also performed the third and strongest form of the Aurora Sword Technique.
Luo Xiu has not yet reached a perfect level in the fifth-grade martial art of Aurora Sword Technique, so the Aurora Sword Technique cannot exert its full power.
Despite this, the power of the Aurora Sword is far more powerful than the Flash Sword and the Death Sword.
With a puff, the azure dragon phantom formed by the condensed innate true energy was split open by the Shadow Sword. The violent azure light surged, all of which was blocked by the defensive light curtain on Luo Xiu's body.
Matsuyama Erxiong was stunned and dumbfounded. He never expected that a Qihai warrior could actually block the secret technique of combined attack?
Luo Xiu naturally couldn't give Matsuyama Erxiong a chance to continue to use the secret technique of joint attack. With a flash of his body, he appeared directly in front of one of them, and the shadow sword flashed across the sky like black lightning.
Without the help of the secret technique of combined attack, Matsuyama Erxiong's strength is not much different from that of ordinary innate first-level martial arts masters.
So facing Luo Xiu's extremely fast sword, they couldn't defend themselves at all.
"Puff! Puff!..."
Two streaks of blood spurted out, and Matsuyama Erxiong's body fell to the ground.
Yan Qiu, who was riding a one-horned horse not far away, stared at this scene in a daze. Together, Matsuyama Erxiong, who could compete with a fourth-level innate martial artist, was actually killed by a Qi Hai warrior?
"You...who are you?" Even though he saw it with his own eyes, Yan Qiu still looked at Luo Xiu in disbelief. How could a Qihai warrior have such a powerful strength? This was simply against common sense.
"Go to the underworld and ask the King of Hell!"
Luo Xiu snorted coldly, murderous intent surged in his body, and he unfolded his shadow body skills from all directions. The shadow sword shook, and the sword light was as black as a rainbow.
Yanqiu's first reaction was to escape on a horned horse, but before he could make a move, the Shadow Sword pierced his neck directly.
Yanqiu opened his mouth, his eyes widened, and blood was pouring from his mouth. His heart was full of unwillingness. He was the young master of the Yan family in Zuoxing City, and he died like this?
Whether outside Yunlong County or in the Guanlei Mountains, Lu Mengyao had seen Luo Xiu kill people before, so he didn't have much feeling about Luo Xiu killing Yan Qiu and the others.
When Luo Xiu put her down from his back, she suddenly realized that Luo Xiu had been carrying her on his back when he killed two innate martial masters.
Suddenly being put down, Lu Mengyao felt a faint feeling of loss in her heart.
Luo Xiu didn't say anything, and he didn't know what Lu Mengyao was thinking. He skillfully put away the treasures stored in the three corpses, and then said to Lu Mengyao: "With this one-horned mane horse, we need to do it as soon as possible." leave here."
Yanqiu dared to bully men and women in Zuoxing City, so he must have some background. It is conceivable that the forces behind him would definitely launch a pursuit order.
"Where are we going?" Along the way from Yunlong County, Lu Mengyao had no idea. Luo Xiu had always decided which way to go and which direction to go.
"Guan Lei Mountain Range." Luo Xiu pointed to the looming mountains and forests in the hazy mist in the distance.
Having just come out of the Guanlei Mountains, but having to go back again, Luo Xiu felt helpless.
Jumping up and riding on the back of the one-horned horse, Luo Xiu stretched out his hand to Lu Mengyao and pulled her up.
"drive!"
The one-horned mane horse had a gentle temperament. As Luo Xiu clamped his legs on the horse's belly, it galloped towards the Guanlei Mountains.
Not long after, Mr. Liu, a white-bearded old man, appeared and saw three corpses lying on the ground in a pool of blood.
"What a sharp swordsmanship."
Mr. Liu looked at the traces of battle at the scene and the wounds on the three corpses, and his expression suddenly became solemn.
He is an innate fourth-level martial artist, and if he were to face the two heroes of Matsuyama, he would not be completely sure of winning.
According to Mr. Liu's original plan, he was preparing to ambush on the only way back to Zuoxing City, attack Yanqiu and Songshan Erxiong on their way back from grabbing the Leiwu Token, and then seize the Leiwu Token.
But he didn't expect that Yan Qiu and Songshan Erxiong not only failed to grab the Lei Wu Token, but also lost their lives.
"Did a master appear and rescue them? Or was there a hidden master protecting the young man and woman?" Mr. Liu frowned and speculated, not thinking that this was done by a Qihai warrior.
"Escaped into the Guanlei Mountains?" Mr. Liu saw the hoof prints of the one-horned horse on the ground and looked in the direction of the Guanlei Mountains.
Taking out the sound transmission box, Liu Laodang informed the Duan family of Zuo Xingcheng about what happened here.
Yan Qiu is the only biological son of the head of the Yan family. If something like this happened, it would undoubtedly cause an uproar in Zuoxing City.
Soon, the Yan family also learned the news. The head of the family, Yan Yuanzhi, was furious and issued a wanted order throughout the city. At the same time, a large number of experts were sent into the Guanlei Mountains to capture the murderer.
In addition to the Yan family, the Duan family also sent troops, because the two families knew very well that the other family had a Leiwu Token in their hands.
No matter which family can get this Leiwu Token, they can get endless benefits.
If it cannot be snatched, then once the person holding the Leiwu Token becomes the core disciple of Leiwu Sect, or uses the token to ask Leiwu Sect to destroy the Yan family and the Duan family, it will be even more catastrophic. !
So, no matter what, they must catch the two young men and women.
