Chapter 294: Chapter 294: To Me, No One is Unkillable! (Fifth Release)
The words of the man with the black face turned the atmosphere in the room awkward.
But before anyone else could speak, Bian Hua had already angrily said, “Yuanzhou City? Huh, Sister Qingmu, during my trip to collect Spiritual Medicine, I ended up being surrounded by Xuanyuan Sect from Yuanzhou City. I was nearly killed and robbed of my medicine! And now these people from Yuanzhou City dare to come and persuade us to merge?”
Bian Hua’s words caused an uproar.
The man with the black face stood proudly and scoffed, “Bian Hua, you say that people from my Xuanyuan Sect ambushed and tried to kill you. How did you manage to escape then? Are you suggesting that Xuanyuan Sect deliberately surrounded you and then let you go?”
Bian Hua said, “I’ve just said that if it weren’t for this Immortal Master’s intervention to save me, I would have long been dead!”
The man with the black face heard this and his face showed a mocking expression. He clenched his fist towards Bian Qingmu, “Town Master, I think these words are complete nonsense, especially this one. I don’t know where he came from; he could very well be a swindler!”
Bian Qingmu had been watching Xue An all this time and couldn’t help but frown upon hearing this.
This man’s aura doesn’t seem all that remarkable!
The people in the room all looked at Xue An with strange expressions.
Bian Hua’s face turned red with anger, ready to retort against the man with the black face.
Xue An gestured with his hand, signaling him not to speak, then slightly raised his eyebrow, “You’re saying… that I am a swindler?”
The black-faced man sneered, “Whether you are or not, you know best! But if you were in our Yuanzhou City, someone like you, I would have long ordered someone to chop you into minced meat!”
Xue An nodded, then flicked a finger.
Boom!
A streak of sword light pierced towards the chest of the black-faced man.
But this black-faced man was somewhat capable. As the sword light stabbed at him, a golden light suddenly appeared, protecting him.
The black-faced man was a little startled, but then he sneered, “Heh, useless. This is a protective Jade Pendant given by the Sect Master himself. Ordinary people simply cannot break it!”
But his smugness didn’t last long as the golden light on his body flickered a few times, then exploded with a loud bang.
The black-faced man let out a horrified shout as the sword light swept across, cutting him in half.
At this moment, the black-faced man was still not dead, but he looked at Xue An with shock and anger.
“You… you dare to kill someone from Yuanzhou City?”
Xue An spoke indifferently, “To me, no one is unkillable!”
With that, another streak of sword light swept by, and the black-faced man met his end.
At this moment.
The entire Council Hall was silent.
Including Bian Hua who had led Xue An back, everyone’s faces were filled with horror at this moment.
“You… you actually killed the envoy sent by Yuanzhou City?” a commander from Qingmu Town jumped up and roared.
“Yes! Do you realize how much trouble this will bring to Qingmu Town?” another elder said with a face full of despair.
These people began to blame Xue An one after another.
Xue An frowned.
Bian Qingmu said softly, “Stop talking!”
The room quieted down, then Bian Qingmu looked at Xue An and after a while said, “Sword Cultivator?”
Xue An smiled faintly, “Sort of.”
“But the Sword Cultivator Sects are all in the northern Kunlun, why have you come to the east?” Bian Qingmu asked again.
“Do I need to report to you?” Xue An said indifferently.
Bian Qingmu’s face showed a trace of anger, then she calmed down.
“The trial competition is about to commence. No matter what you Sword Cultivators are planning, this is Qingmu Town. You must follow the rules of Qingmu Town!”
Having said this, she stood up to leave.
A few commanders said hastily, “Town Master, about Yuanzhou…”
Bian Qingmu said coldly, “Even if we don’t kill this person, Yuanzhou won’t let us off easily! Surviving by bowing and scraping is not what I, Bian Qingmu, need!”
After speaking, she took her leave with measured steps.
At that moment, Xue An said indifferently, “Thinking of using Spiritual Medicine to repress your injury? That’s too naïve.”
His statement, shocking as a thunderclap, left Bian Qingmu completely frozen.
The fact that her injuries had not yet healed was a top secret in Qingmu Town, not even known to Bian Hua!
“How about we make a deal?” Xue An proposed calmly.
“What kind of deal?”
“I’ll accompany you to the trial competition. I’ll cure your injury.”
Xue An’s words were light and casual, as if discussing a trivial matter.
But everyone in the room was shocked, their eyes wide open.
Bian Qingmu turned sharply, her face showing scorn.
“Take you to the trial competition? Now I see, you must be a hidden Loose Cultivator,” she said.
Xue An replied indifferently, “And what if I am?”
“Hah, the last trial competition saw all those hidden Loose Cultivators who had been isolated for many years completely obliterated. What do you think will happen?”
Bian Qingmu continued, “This trial competition is a matter of survival for various Sects. Those who are sent are the most outstanding individuals from all Sects. You shouldn’t think that having some Cultivation Level means you can look down on everyone in the world!”
However, Xue An nodded, “You’re right. Indeed, in my eyes, the world is nothing more than weeds!”
“You…” Bian Qingmu was so angered that she turned pale, but she quickly regained her composure.
“Fine! I agree to your terms. But I would like to know how you plan to heal me?”
Xue An casually took out a Primordial Essence Elixir. “Eat this. Dare I not say it will cure your injury immediately, but it can at least control it.”
Turning around, Xue An stated lightly, “Remember what you said. I’ll wait for you to join me in the trial competition.”
With that, he left.
The people inside the room exchanged glances, at a loss.
When Bian Qingmu took the Primordial Essence Elixir, she initially didn’t care much, but as she examined it closely, she was stunned.
“This… this is…?”
Bian Hua hastily added, “Sister Qingmu, I forgot to tell you, when the Immortal Master came back, he also gave me a Spirit Pill for healing!”
Bian Qingmu looked skeptically at Xue An’s retreating figure.
What was his background?
To casually present a Spirit Pill and to possess noteworthy Cultivation Level!
But he was too arrogant!
Indeed, within the Kunlun Immortal Realm, there were many hidden Loose Cultivators, but lacking Sect support, they found it difficult to surpass Sect disciples in Cultivation Level.
This man had commendable skills, but still fell far short of those talents carefully nurtured from childhood by the Sects, let alone the true chosen heirs!
In time, he would surely come to realize that there are always greater people in the world, and a higher sky above the sky!
Thinking this, Bian Qingmu said somberly, “Send a message to Yuanzhou City. Tell them Qingmu Town will not yield!”
“Yes!”
When Sha’er, the City Lord of Yuanzhou City and Sect Master of Xuanyuan Sect, received the letter from Qingmu Town, he flew into a rage.
“Bian Qingmu, this woman dares to challenge me with the mere power of a town? She must be killed!” Sha’er declared sternly.
At that moment, someone beside him chuckled, “Sect Master, please calm your anger. This matter is actually quite easy to resolve.”
“Oh? Elder Diao, do you have a clever plan?” Sha’er turned to the speaker.
The one who spoke was Diao Zeng, the strategist of Xuanyuan Sect.
With a slight smile, Diao Zeng said, “Sect Master, this Qingmu Town has little to offer, and few of high Cultivation Level, reliant solely on Bian Qingmu herself. Now, with the trial competition approaching, we can find a way to eliminate her during the competition. Wouldn’t that save us a lot of effort and be justified at the same time?”
