Chapter 24: 024
"Don't mind me, go kill Ye Xiao!"
Su Shi shouted sternly, slashing his sword towards Chen Qingluan.
Chen Qingluan's eyes were extremely cold as her Autumn Water Longsword met his sword head-on.
Boom!
Green Frost and Autumn Water collided, sword Qi whistled and cold light erupted.
The two figures, one white and one green, were like lightning, and their sword qi was like a biting cold wind, making it impossible for people to approach even half a step closer.
Qiu Ao's pupils contracted slightly.
He knew that Su Shi was a Golden Elixir practitioner, but he did not expect his strength to be so strong.
Afterall, his opponent was a Demon Exterminator Chen Qingluan.
Su Shi frowned slightly.
This woman was truly difficult to deal with.
Chen Qingluan was born with sword intent down to the bone, and her control of the sword dao was already very good. Although the Heavenly Sword Draw Technique was powerful, it could not be used continuously in haste.
It was not easy to determine the winner in a short period of time.
On the other hand Ye Xiao escaped with all his might, going into the crowd like a small fish, and although he was beaten by Wu Mang and the others, his life was not in danger for a while.
"How dare you call me an old bitch."
At this moment, Chen Qingluan didn't care whether Ye Xiao lived or died, and only had Su Shi in her eyes.
Her chest rose and fell, her anger level drawn to the full, one sword faster than the other, one sword crueler than the other.
Su Shi said indifferently, "You tigress, are you not done yet?"
"Tigress?"
Chen Qingluan's eyes spewed flames, and she instantly slashed even harder.
Su Shi retreated, and with a green frost clanging in his hand, he threw it directly at her as a javelin.
"Throwing away your own weapon? Fool!"
Chen Qingluan dodged to the side and was just about to counterattack when she suddenly felt a strange sensation coming from her chest.
The air was instantly silent.
Her body stiffened and she slowly looked down.
Only to see Su Shih's palm pressing against her without resistance.
Chen Qingluan's face quickly turned red, her eyes couldn't believe it, her voice trembled, "Nasty, nasty bastard, how dare you act indecently towards me."
"Sorry, but you're overthinking it."
Su Shi's palm exploded with green light.
Eight Desolate Six Harmonious Palms.
Boom!
An extremely powerful spiritual force instantly erupted, and Chen Qingluan's blood spurted wildly as she was instantly sent flying.
Like a green meteor, it was hitting a home.
Her breath was gone, her life and death unknown.
"Censor[1] Chen!"
The people from the Demon Extermination Division were in a great hurry.
They wanted to come to support Chen Qingluan, but how could Qiu Ao let them go?
Qiu Ao drew a dividing line, kept the crowd in place and said in a loud voice, "Commander Su, you go about your business, leave this side to me."
"Good."
Su Shi's finger twitched slightly and the Green Frost Sword flew back into his palm.
Without caring about Chen Qingluan, he turned his gaze towards Ye Xiao, his dense killing aura undisguised.
"Now it's your turn."
When Ye Xiao realized this scene, his heart and guts split and both his legs became weak for a while.
"I have no grudge with you, why do you keep obsessively chasing me."
He was confused in his heart.
It was as if this man had a blood feud with him.
Su Shi didn't bother to explain, he simply moved.
It was undeniable that this thing called heaven's luck did exist.
Just like Ye Xiao, even if he stepped in dog shit on the street, he could still find some really good medicine in that dog shit.
But then what?
"You are the Son of Destiny, taking all the fortune of heaven, but you are cowardly, timid, and stupid."
"Do you think I should just stand by obediently waiting for you to kill me?
"You're the one who first made the move to kill me, in my eyes it's already unforgivable!"
"Die!"
Sword Qi crossed heaven and earth!
Ye Xiao's eyes were filled with despair.
"Stop!"
The middle-aged cultivator noticed this scene and instantly his eyes widened in anger as he raised his hand and threw the fly whisk.
But he was still a step too slow.
The ruthless sword qi pierced through Ye Xiao's chest like a bolt of lightning.
Su Shi still wanted to slash out a second sword.
But the fly whisk had already flown in, and a blinding light separated the two.
"Don't get distracted while you fight."
Shenxiu slammed his fist into the middle-aged cultivator's chest.
"Buhoo!"
The cultivator spurted blood, his chest was dented and he fell down like a kite with a broken string.
In mid-air, he forcibly endured severe pain, his blood burned like a flame, and instantly appeared behind Ye Xiao.
"Run!"
Pulling the unconscious Ye Xiao, his body disappeared like a bubble.
"Want to run?"
Shenxiu condensed the stone spear in his hand and threw it forcefully, a muffled groan came from the void.
After leaving behind a large pool of blood, the two figures completely disappeared.
As the Righteous path disciples watched, they couldn't help but freeze in place.
"That Nascent Soul cultivator..."
"Escaped?"
The crowd looked distraught.
They had just been What happened to the promise 'we live and die together', 'share hardships together'?
Qiu Ao's smile was fierce as he said in a firm voice, "Fellow commanders, follow me to eliminate those righteous people."
"Kill!"
The people in the Demon Sect looked excited.
Chen Qingluan had fallen, Ye Xiao's life and death was unknown, and the Soul Nascent great power had fled.
Righteous force had completely lost the ability to resist.
What followed was a completely one-sided massacre.
Su Shi had no interest in the others and stood silently, waiting for the system's notification.
About a stick of incense later, a beep sounded.
[The storyline has changed.]
[The host defeated Chen Qingluan, influencing the next plot trend and gaining 10 plot points.]
[The host helped kill Lin Quan, a monk from Tianyi Sect, affecting the next plot trend and earning 10 plot points.]
[The host has severely injured Ye Xiao, affecting the subsequent plot, earning 40 plot points.
[Please continue your good job.]
"Critical injury?"
Su Shi's eyes sank slightly, "Tsk, it's true that he didn't die."
His sword had hit right on the chest, and it was probably Lin Quan who had saved Ye Xiao's life before he died.
This was also in line with his expectations.
If he is really easy to kill, he will not be called the protagonist.
Even if it is well prepared, it will only inflict heavy damage on the other party.
But it made him certain of one thing.
The so-called Son of Heaven's Destiny was not immortal!
"You won't be so lucky next time."
The corner of Su Shi's mouth curved up slightly.
Ye Xiao was still alive, the next plot was still predictable, and he still had more room to play.
"Sixty plot points?"
"That's a big jackpot."
1. Censor, in traditional East Asia, governmental official charged primarily with the responsibility for scrutinizing and criticizing the conduct of officials and rulers.
2. As alluded to in the first chapter, burning blood is equivalent to spending your remaining life-span in exchange for a drastic increase in strength in a short period of time. Therefore, the middle-aged man who saved Ye Xiao was already confirmed dead.
