C445 Qi Zhun
Su Jin quietly jumped down the cliff, entered the forest, and flew along the city.
He didn't dare to fly too fast, so he didn't want to be discovered by the owner of the dangerous aura in the palace, so he just flew at a low altitude.
"Ding! Treasure chest found!"
A familiar prompt sounded.
Su Jin's body paused and his eyes lit up. "Another treasure chest."
He immediately unleashed his Divine Sense, and saw a miserable looking young man in the forest. He was at the ninth level of the Martial Ancestor Stage, and there were wounds all over his body. He was fleeing for his life.
His speed was comparable to some Martial Lord Stage warriors, and it was obvious that his speed wasn't normal.
His body was emitting a layer of hazy blood-red light, which allowed Su Jin to see that the young man was using some kind of escaping Secret Technique.
And the treasure chest was on the young man's body.
"I can't die! How can I die here!?"
The young man's face was hideous, and his eyes were fierce. As he ran, he seemed to be comforting himself. "I'm destined to become a bandit. I can't die!"
However, all of a sudden, the young man's expression froze.
A masked figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
"Have you run enough?"
The masked man's voice was sharp and piercing, giving the young man an extremely uncomfortable feeling. He discovered that the berserk aura on his body had slowed down. The young man's expression was ugly to the extreme. This meant that his escape Secret Technique had reached its end.
He stopped in his tracks and saw a few masked figures slowly approaching him from behind. His facial expression became extremely ugly.
"My father, King Fu, is Heavenly Wolf King's most loyal subordinate. You can't do this to me!"
The young man's face turned ashen and he roared furiously.
"King Fu is already dead. He died in the hands of Princess An Lan. You are just an ordinary Martial Ancestor now."
The man with the sharp voice said in a cold tone, "Realize the truth, Qih Zhun. You don't have the right to inherit that small sword. Hand it over, and I will let you die a quick death!"
When he heard the words "Princess An Lan," Qih Zhun's eyes immediately revealed resentment. After that, his expression became extremely ugly. "You bunch of dogs, who sent you here? Heavenly Wolf King, or Little Wolf King?"
"Slandering the two kings, you are courting death."
The masked man snorted coldly and raised his hand to strike.
With a slap, a red palm print appeared on Qih Zhun's face. A trace of blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth as he was sent flying.
A look of humiliation appeared in Qih Zhun's eyes. He stared at the masked man and said, "Even if I die, I will not give the small sword to you. If you want it, go to the residence and get it."
"If you refuse a toast, you will have to drink a forfeit."
The masked man sneered and said, "I will fulfill your wish. After you die, I will search your body!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the masked man disappeared from where he stood. Qih Zhun's facial expression changed dramatically, and a feeling of extreme danger emerged in his heart.
But in the next moment, the masked man suddenly returned to his original position, and his eyes became alert. "Who are you?!"
A figure suddenly appeared in front of Qih Zhun. No one could clearly see how he appeared.
"I'm just passing by."
Su Jin looked at the masked man. He was only at the fourth level of the Martial Lord Stage. He smiled faintly and said, "I don't like to see blood. Can you let this guy go?"
"Second level of the Martial Lord?"
The eyes of the masked man flashed. Immediately, a trace of coldness appeared. "You meddlesome fellow. The internal affairs of our Heavenly Wolf Army are things that you can meddle in. You are courting death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp aura filled the forest, startling countless birds.
The masked man grabbed his hand and pulled out a long saber.
Qih Zhun's expression changed drastically, and he immediately cried out in alarm, "This is the Sky Wolf Poison Flame Blade! Fire is poisonous, dodge it quickly!"
"It's too late!" The masked man shouted out coldly. The blade's body was instantly covered in a raging dark green flame, and it was emitting an extremely dangerous aura.
With a flash of the blade, the long blade of the green flame broke through the sky and arrived in front of Su Jin in an instant.
"This is bad!"
Qih Zhun's face turned pale. It wasn't because he felt sorry for this stranger who was about to die, but because once this stranger died, he was afraid that he would follow in his footsteps.
However, to everyone's surprise, Su Jin didn't even try to dodge the Sky Wolf Poison Flame Blade. Instead, he gently pinched the void with two fingers.
With a bang, Su Jin's fingers grabbed the blade. The flames on the blade were extinguished instantly, but Su Jin wasn't affected at all.
"Who are you?!"
The masked man was shocked. His Sky Wolf Poison Flame Blade... Normal. If Martial Lord Stage Expert touched it, it would poison him immediately. He was seriously injured, but this guy in front of him had actually touched it with his own hands. However, nothing happened to him. Who exactly was this man?
The masked men behind Qih Zhun also became alert. They stared at Su Jin as if they were ready to attack at any moment.
"I've already said that I'm just a passerby."
Su Jin smiled faintly, "Just a passerby who wants to save someone."
"Save people?"
The man with the sharp voice obviously didn't believe him. He coldly harrumphed, "Sir, I advise you not to interfere in today's matter. If you offend Little Wolf King, I'm afraid it won't be good for you."
"As expected, all of you were sent by Little Wolf King!"
Qih Zhun stared at the masked man with grief and indignation. "Little Wolf King, I, Qih Zhun, cannot live under the same sky as you!"
"A man who is about to die dares to speak nonsense about Little Wolf King."
The masked man with a sharp voice snorted coldly. He looked at Su Jin and said, "Now that you know about our origins, you should know what to do."
Su Jin's eyes sparkled. Little Wolf King was the son of Heavenly Wolf King. He was ranked in the middle of the seventy-two giant bandits, and was at the first level of the Martial King Stage. The reward for this man was five million merit points, which was higher than the reward for the other Second Level Martial King Stage giant bandits. It was precisely because of his identity as the son of Heavenly Wolf King.
"Tsk tsk, five million. Do you want to find a chance to kill that Little Wolf King? However, it was better to forget about it. If he could get rid of Little Wolf King, he was afraid that Heavenly Wolf King would become furious. It's not wise to fight an expert like Heavenly Wolf King now."
Su Jin's eyes sparkled as he thought to himself.
When the masked man saw that Su Jin had been silent the whole time, he couldn't help but reveal a cold smile on his face. Did he know fear? That was good.
He thought that Su Jin was afraid of Little Wolf King. If he knew Su Jin's true thoughts, he would probably be scared to death.
At this moment, Qih Zhun also thought that Su Jin was hesitating. A trace of resentment appeared in his eyes. It was really unreliable to rely on an outsider to save his life!
He quietly took out a pill from his spatial magic tool, not daring to let others discover it.
"What do you think?"
The masked man with the sharp voice said coldly, "Our patience is limited. If you scram now, there's still time."
"I've thought about it."
Su Jin looked up and smiled. "You are right. It is best not to offend Little Wolf King.
The masked man sneered. You know what you are doing.
The hatred in Qih Zhun's eyes became even more intense.
"But..."
At this time, Su Jin changed the topic. "You are not Little Wolf King."
The masked man was stunned. He immediately understood that this kid was playing with him. A trace of cold killing intent appeared in his eyes. He sneered. "Ignorant thing, kill!"
With an angry shout, the sharp voice of the masked man turned into a shadow and lunged at Su Jin. At the same time, the other masked men also attacked Su Jin with a tacit understanding.
The instant the few Martial Lord Stage masked men unleashed their killing moves, their true qi seemed to circulate together, forming a unified area that enveloped Su Jin.
"They even know about battle formations!"
Su Jin's eyes moved. These masked men were using battle formations. However, he had long noticed that he had been talking to the sharp voice of the masked man. The other masked men were quietly moving in their positions, completely sealing off his escape route.
These masked men had no intention of letting Su Jin go. Even if Su Jin agreed to leave, they wouldn't let him go.
"It seems like this useless man is dead for sure. This will buy me some time to escape!"
Seeing Su Jin being surrounded by the masked men, Qih Zhun's eyes revealed a trace of a cold smile. He quickly took out another pill and swallowed it. Then, he poured his true qi into the vermillion pill that he had taken out earlier.
When the vermillion spirit pill came into contact with the true qi, it instantly turned into a wisp of green smoke and spread out.
But at this moment, something unexpected happened.
He only saw a few Martial Lord warriors surrounding him, but Su Jin didn't even move his feet.
It wasn't until the enemy arrived in front of him that Su Jin's eyes darkened. "Black Monarch Water Emperor Fist!"
He threw out a punch. He didn't aim at any target, but a layer of frost spread out from under his feet, instantly freezing the forest within a mile radius into a world of ice and frost.
The few masked men stopped in midair, maintaining the posture of attacking. They had already been frozen, turning into ice sculptures, unable to move at all.
Qih Zhun opened his mouth wide, his eyes revealing a look of disbelief.
How could this be!?
How could this Second Level Martial Lord be so strong?
With just a single move, he had crushed all of Little Wolf King's guards.
Just how strong was he?!
Qih Zhun's expression suddenly changed, but his eyes flickered with a sinister light.
At this time, Su Jin turned around. The insidious expression on Qih Zhun's face disappeared in an instant, and he became flattering, "Thank you for saving me, senior. I, Qih Zhun, am very grateful to senior!"
"My name is Su Jin."2
Su Jin raised his brows and smiled. He asked curiously, "Qih Zhun, why are they chasing you?"
Qih Zhun's expression changed. He pretended to be angry and angry. "It's because these people are too overbearing. I only said a few words of disrespect to Little Wolf King, and they chased after me."
"Oh, so that's how it is."
Su Jin looked at Qih Zhun indifferently.
Qih Zhun's eyes sparkled. He was a little nervous in his heart, but he said, "Senior, these people are Little Wolf King's lackeys. They are used to doing evil things. It is best to kill them now so that they don't report back to Little Wolf King."
Su Jin looked at the ice sculptures and said with a smile, "That's fine."
"Senior, can you let me do it myself? These people have a huge grudge with me. I hope you can help me." Qih Zhun pleaded again.
"Alright, I'll let you do it."
Su Jin nodded.
Joy appeared in Qih Zhun's eyes. He took out a small dagger from his pocket and walked towards the ice sculptures. He took a step at a time and his eyes became ferocious, as if he had a great grudge against the masked men.
