Chapter 251: Chapter 221: Showing Their Skills, The Master Returns

"Damn."

"Does this guy have a problem with his brain, coming to the Cloud Water Heavenly Sect to cause trouble and steal things? And he’s not even trying to hide it, blatantly attacking..."

Even with Lin Huaiyu’s mild temperament, he couldn’t help but speak out to criticize at this moment.

He had been shocked by that burly man named Ran Sifei.

"Everyone has their own style of conduct and their demands, maybe that guy isn’t here to steal, but has other motives?"

Zhou Ping’an had dealt with many cases, and his perspective on things often differed from others.

The woman in the black veil kept hinting before, telling him that they came to the mountain to steal something "Divine Intent Crystal Stone".

If he truly believed her, that would be rather naive.

Stealing the "Divine Intent Crystal Stone" might be their purpose, or perhaps not entirely a lie.

However, that certainly isn’t their true motive.

The Jianghu of this world, the environment for survival, is clearly much more perilous than the modern world.

Emerging from the Demonic path, to survive to such an age without being killed.

And to brazenly stir up trouble within the Cloud Water Heavenly Sect, which is one of the Four Great Immortal Sects, regardless of the perspective, both people are considered prominent figures within the Demonic path.

Anyone who thinks they are brainless is definitely the one who is brainless.

What is the real purpose of the opponent?

Zhou Ping’an didn’t actually care much.

What he cared about was, continuing like this, whether he should advance or retreat.

If he ran down the mountain now, and if by chance he bumped into a master of the Cloud Water Sect, wouldn’t that be "exposing oneself without silver three hundred taels"?

Continuing to search for the treasure and secret manual would seem a bit too greedy.

His thoughts raced in an instant.

Sensing the giant man, who was two meters thirty-four, rush in like a demolition machine, roaring thunderously.

Zhou Ping’an made up his mind.

"Stop searching, return to Xinyuan, let’s go to the courtyard we were staying at before."

Zhou Ping’an, in what was likely the most probable room to contain valuable items, the study, searched but found no valuable scrolls, started to feel impatient.

Knowing that the situation might be urgent.

It wasn’t good to delay.

"Okay."

Upon hearing this, Lin Huaiyu did not hesitate.

He put down the brocade box he had just been holding, carefully placed it down, and turned to leave.

A breeze blew past, the curtain at the window was blown up, causing two scrolls to fall.

Bang...

One scroll emitted a wooden clattering sound, and at the same time, from the hollow wooden scroll case, seven or eight transparent beads the size of fingertips rolled out.

Once these beads touched the ground, they scattered about, reflecting the firelight from outside, and unexpectedly emitted a burst of five-colored light.

At the same time, within Zhou Ping’an’s mental induction, he could faintly sense the sharp and grand presence emanating from within the beads.

"This is..."

The footsteps of the two, who were about to leave, paused simultaneously.

"Divine Intent Crystal Stones..."

"What Divine Intent Crystal Stones? They are treasures infused with Martial Intent."

Lin Huaiyu had also realized this.

The aura of these items clearly wasn’t naturally emitted by the stones, and looking directly at them gave one a bizarre feeling of being split in two or smashed into powder.

Thinking of the location of this study.

He immediately understood.

This might be a collection of valuable items gathered from everywhere by the Master of Emerald Peak, intended for his own son to comprehend the Sword Intent, Fist Intent, and Palm Intent.

He didn’t know how the woman in the black veil knew that such rare treasures existed in the Emerald Peak and had specifically pointed it out, coming here to steal them.

The moment the Five-Colored Crystal Stones fell to the ground, both of them, without a prior agreement, swiftly moved, their sleeves fluttering, grabbing the beads from the ground.

What heaven bestows, one should not refuse, lest they suffer the consequences.

The two, who had no mentoring relationship, knew that each object capable of aiding their own cultivation was a rare treasure.

It was natural not to let them go.

"Thinking of monopolizing it? Go to hell."

A loud shout came from outside, and amidst the sound of "booming" like thunder, a Black Halberd stirred up a fierce storm, broke through the wall, and slammed in front of Zhou Ping’an and Lin Huaiyu.

The Black Halberd like a dragon, vibrated the air, turning the inside of the room into a vacuum...

Zhou Ping’an had just grabbed three beads when he felt his breath halt, the blade of the halberd already before his eyes.

"Seeking death."

Anger surged from his heart, and evil rose by his gall.

He thought this guy was truly a madman, striking recklessly without any concern.

At the thought, he moved, securing the three beads into space, and suddenly, a Treasure Sword emitting a pale blue light appeared in his hand.

Under the interplay of light and dark, the skin covered by his clothes, where no one could see, was likewise covered with faint veins.

Fourth Level "Purifying Lotus Body", partially erupting ninefold.

The light of the blade turned into a bright shining arc, coming later but arriving first, counter-lifted to slash diagonally.

Clang...

Amidst the loud noise, Zhou Ping’an moved with the sword.

He had already approached three feet in front of the giant...

The Sword Light slightly expanded, transforming into surging green waves, entwining the opponent within.

"Good Sword Technique."

The giant, with a strike of over two hundred thousand jin of force transforming into a dragon, thought that this one halberd would have turned the two, man and woman, into minced meat.

However, unexpectedly, when the halberd fell, it felt like it had struck a steel wall thick by about ten meters.

The blade of the halberd not only failed to swing down but was also shaken by a strong repelling force that made the shaft of the halberd vibrate as if it had indeed turned into an uncontrollable evil dragon, almost impossible to grasp.

Before he could retreat using his momentum,

the extremely fierce and sharp force suddenly transformed into a deep quagmire, as if it intended to drag him deep into it.

At the same time, a sharp wind had already reached his neck.

It was indescribably fast...

"River Overturning Sea..."

The arrogance in the giant’s eyes had disappeared. His body twisted, and the Black Halberd in his hand twisted as well, turning instantly into an enraged, roaring dragon, lighting up the air in front of him with a dusky blood-red flame.

Clang, clang, clang...

The halberd clashed with the blade light three times.

Bl blood splattered from the giant’s chest, gushing out like cannonballs.

He staggered back seven or eight steps before finally planting his feet, lowering his elbow, and holding the halberd across his chest in shock.

Zhou Ping’an deeply resented the opponent’s sudden lethal attack and showed no mercy in his counterattack.

Using the Ninth Level Layered Waves transformed into Nine Turns Soft Strength, his blade light was dense and overlapping, like the fierce tides of the ocean.

He intended to completely behead his opponent in one go.

However, unexpectedly, the giant was quite skilled as well.

Not only did his strength reach over 200,000 pounds, but it was also slightly stronger than his own localized burst force by tens of thousands of pounds, and his halberd technique was incredibly precise.

When performed, it truly transformed into a fierce, River Overturning Sea dragon, turning the air in front of him into wildly vibrating Gang Qi.

Moreover, that blood-red Gang Flame on his opponent’s body, which intensely tormented the spirit and dissipated incoming force, clearly was a formidable defensive technique...

In the clash, only a bloody gash was carved on the giant’s chest.

He was then blown back by the force of the halberd wind and recoiled.

Zhou Ping’an landed and halted his retreat, stomping his foot, almost unable to contain the murderous intent in his heart, wanting to fully unleash "Purifying World Lotus Body" and completely behead the opponent on the spot.

In a flash of thought, he stopped moving, his figure flickered, and he appeared right in front of Lin Huaiyu, his blade light flowing like water as he slashed towards a pitch-black figure.

There, flashes of blade and sword light were seen, and both black and white figures stumbled back.

In a flash, the black figure had already retreated thirty feet, hanging mid-air with a giggle: "Consider you two fierce, I won’t fight you."

It was while Zhou Ping’an and the giant with the halberd were fiercely battling that the black-clothed, masked woman also moved like smoke, reaching for the Five-Colored Crystal Beads.

Her movements were extremely covert, her movement technique incredibly strange, and it was not until she was about to grab the beads that Lin Huaiyu noticed her.

After exchanging a move, they both retreated.

Zhou Ping’an, with his sharp eyes, saw that the black-clothed masked woman had grabbed two beads, while Lin Huaiyu had grabbed three.

"Give them to me."

He reached out his hand, "Return to Xinyuan."

Lin Huaiyu immediately came to his senses and stuffed the beads into Zhou Ping’an’s hand.

Without a word, they followed Zhou Ping’an as he dashed close to the ground, flashing out of the mountain-top pavilion and into the forest path.

Looking back, they saw a white figure burst out.

He shouted loudly: "Who dares cause trouble on my Emerald Peak?"

When the person appeared, his clothes fluttered in the wind, his presence dignified and handsome, the long sword in his hand reflecting the firelight, imposing and formidable.

If not Young Master Gu, Gu Ning, then who?

"Don’t even recognize your own granny anymore."

The white-clothed Young Master Gu, Gu Ning, didn’t act arrogantly for more than two seconds.

In front of him, a sword cry sounded, and the sword light carved an arc, faintly creating a ghostly disc in mid-air.

He only had time to use his sword to block before he was cut and sent flying, even his right hand holding the sword was severed.

In pain, he howled loudly, rolling on the ground twice, then scrammed.

"Dirty molester, I let you escape last time, and you think you can escape again?"

The black-clothed woman who was giggling a moment ago became fiercely wicked the next, like an old witch.

With a sweep of her sword light, her figure turned into smoke and she chased after him.

Lin Huaiyu felt greatly relieved by the sight.

He wanted to watch more, but suddenly felt the force on his wrist increase greatly, his body was already lifted up, being swiftly dragged along the ground by Zhou Ping’an.

"What are you looking at? The big guy is here."

Zhou Ping’an’s mental induction was extremely powerful, and his vision was exceptionally good...

Under the faint moonlit land, in his eyes, it was almost as bright as day.

He had already noticed a powerful presence speeding over from a distance.

At the same time, from the corner of his eye, he glimpsed a faint light shadow, moving as fast as a shooting star, flashing by above the side forest buildings.

It was already close.

That presence, touched only slightly by his spiritual power, made him feel his pores tightening.

He could not see clearly who the rapidly approaching figure was.

But whoever it was, they had to be stronger than those present.

...

Only a moment later than Zhou Ping’an’s realization,

the black-clothed masked woman had also sensed something amiss.

Just as she reached Gu Ning, not even bothering to strike again, she turned her body and with a swish of her feet, took off at breakneck speed without a sound.

Half a beat slower,

the burly giant, still bleeding from his chest, also spread his feet and, dragging the large halberd, thundered downwards toward the base of the mountain.

"Ye Xiaoqian, you dare to harm my son, where do you think you’re escaping to?"

The purple-robed figure flying through the air shouted harshly, suddenly increasing his speed a notch.

In the blink of an eye, he landed on a tree branch, flashing past fifty feet with a series of sonic booms.

As he passed by, the gusts roared, bending the branches and leaves of the forest downwards.

...
