Chen Ping's Sword

Chapter 292: Chapter 155: Luring the Enemy into the Trap, Hidden Moves Unveiled (Part 3)

The ability to adapt to change quickly is ingrained in one’s bones.

Tao Fang wore a bitter smile: "Chief Clerk, even if I’m a petty person, I have family and relatives, a wife and children...

General Chen acts unconventionally. He said if I don’t join him, he’ll kill my whole family. What should I do?"

"Uh..."

Pei Zixing was speechless.

Previously, he thought that Chen was "a solitary king with ailments", and intended to give him a fatal blow by exploiting his soft heart and adherence to rules.

However, they completely miscalculated about these people.

The opponent not only walks the path of kingship and righteousness.

He can also be domineering and tread the path of wickedness.

How do you deal with such a person?

No ingenious strategies, no tricks, overt or covert, would work.

The only way is to defeat him by force...

Pei Zixing could think of this, and naturally, Brocade Guard’s Right Deputy Commander Liang Qi had thought of it even earlier.

The thirty-five Brocade Guard experts under him perished in the sea of fire, but this only regretted him for a breath’s time before he suppressed all negative emotions, coldly snorting: "Despicable, shameless..."

The Cyan Steel Long Spear was like a divine dragon soaring through the sky, roaring fiercely, stirring up a gale as it thrust toward the slowly approaching Chen Ping.

Without much probing, Liang Qi struck with his signature move "Cyan Dragon Making Waves." freeωebnovēl.c૦m

Man and spear became one, spear and Qi became one, Qi and spirit became one.

At this moment, he abandoned his usual sinister and secretive ways, instead, combining man and spear to become the Cyan Dragon Making Waves.

Waves of light arose on all sides, the spearhead resonating and spinning.

Transforming into a raging dragon, set to destroy everything, to tear everything apart.

The most amazing thing about this spear was that although it pierced through the air, it turned the air into water ripples, causing Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi to emerge, refracting wave light, making it impossible to see where the spear tip was.

Once clearly seen.

It could likely have already pierced through the heart.

"Cyan Dragon Making Waves" followed by "Blood Dragon Heart Devouring", both fierce and skillful, truly worthy of being ranked nineteenth on the Earth List and a top expert of the Brocade Guard renowned in the Jianghu for his ferocity.

Even Pei Ziwen, watching from the side and not thinking highly of his character, couldn’t help but secretly shout a cheer.

Chen Ping couldn’t help but laugh.

"You, a Brocade Guard, calling me despicable and shameless?"

He stopped in his tracks, advancing no further.

Speaking slowly and methodically, as if in banter with a friend.

The Black Sword in his hand had unknowingly pointed out, silently and stealthily, one moment here, the next moment there.

The sword tip touched the spear tip just in time.

Boom...

The green waves exploded, the air roared.

Rubble flew, the airflow impact causing the houses on both sides of the street to collapse one after another.

You could hear small exclamations coming from all directions.

Chen Ping’s hand was steady, and even more so was the sword.

His figure unmoving, his green robe settled neatly...

However, Liang Qi, charging madly in front of him, was different.

The Cyan Steel Long Spear in Liang Qi’s hand was like a bent bow, his force pushed to the extreme, the power having nowhere to vent, all rebounding onto the spear shaft.

The spear blade was blocked, and as the edge shattered, the spear shaft bent and the tremendous force rebounded backward...

He wanted to retreat, but it was too late.

His arms fractured with a crack at the first moment, the bow-shaped long spear’s unmatched power rebounding, and the spear’s butt fiercely struck his chest.

Poof...

Liang Qi only managed to spit out a mouthful of blood, his chest already collapsed, his whole body flying back over ten yards, crashing heavily into the inferno ruins.

"Knowing full well the True Dragon Blood is with me, yet you dare to confront me head-on? I wonder how a Brocade Guard Deputy Commander like you rose in rank, are you really that brainless?"

Chen Ping shook his head, amused.

A faint golden light rose from his body, forming thick, solid dark golden patterns on his exposed skin.

This was evidently the Golden Body Gang Force lurking within his muscles and bones, connected into one, forming an armor.

It gave him infinite strength and a solid defense.

Those weaker than him couldn’t even break his defense, let alone harm his body.

A victory with a single sword strike.

Chen Ping was greatly disappointed in his heart.

’Is this it? Such petty tribulations are insufficient... Without strong tribulation, there’s little fortune to be had, what a pity.’

The nineteenth on the Earth List couldn’t pose a significant threat to him.

Indeed, I am too strong.

...

From afar, several people lying on a high-rise window sill collectively gasped.

"Fifty thousand pounds, at least, a massive force of fifty thousand pounds, more than a human could withstand. freeωebnovēl.c૦m

This Liang Qi is a fool too. He’s served as the Brocade Guard’s Right Deputy Commander for so long, his brain is probably rotten.

Anyone who’s seen Chen Ping in action wouldn’t be foolish enough to challenge him head-on, yet he..."

Xiongba was both amused and annoyed.

He almost couldn’t control his voice.

In the depths of his eyes, however, flashed a trace of disappointment.

"The tide has turned against us. If only the Pei Family and the Brocade Guard had succeeded with their scheming, we might have stood a chance.

Now, with Chen Ping having taken the advantage, severing their wings and nobly standing in the street center, there is no turning back." General Huwei, Xu Yanzong, standing a bit further away, sighed.

He glanced at Ji Xuanwu, whose face still showed signs of shock, and cautiously said: "Crown Prince, after this battle, Xingqing Prefecture is no longer a good place. We shouldn’t think too much about the Azure Dragon Seal, let’s return to the Vice Capital. Prepare the army and wait for the right opportunity.

On the positive side, it’s fortunate that at the time when the Beizhou Hu Cavalry is invading south, we have such a strong ally to distract them, sparing us from facing the Wolf Riders directly."

Ji Xuanwu’s eyes showed a hint of dimness, he took a long breath and said softly: "It has to be this way."

Just that sword strike just now, they all saw it clearly and were shocked internally. How could they not see the true value of it?

Brocade Guard Liang Qi was not someone of false fame; his nineteenth ranking on the Earth List was earned from the battlefield and the Jianghu.

It could be said that in a one-on-one, none of those present could boast of retreating unscathed under Liang Qi’s Dragon Roar Spear.

Especially the Cyan Dragon Making Waves. If encountered, at most, it would result in mutual destruction.

Whether one could withstand it was uncertain.

Surviving would be half a chance, dying would be half a chance.

Yet such a formidable expert, his spear clash against Chen Ping’s sword edge ended like an egg against a rock, shattered directly.

Now gravely injured, if not dead, he was half-crippled.

With such strength, lurking in Xingqing Prefecture City, scheming for the Azure Dragon Seal, wouldn’t that be courting death?

Even if they found a chance when Chen Ping was alone and attacked together, they’d likely be sent to their deaths.

It would be better while they haven’t completely fallen out, to retain some incense sentiments.

Building a relationship later and becoming allies would be more appropriate.

Otherwise, they feared they couldn’t return to Youjing City.

"There might still be a chance after all."

With Ji Xuanwu disheartened, a low contradictory voice was heard near him, it was Xiao Chengyun.

This military advisor of the East Wood Army, now with a broken right arm, had lost much of his strength and fighting spirit.

Especially since the East Wood Army’s young master, Jiang Ziyang, who came with him, was slain by Chen Ping in battle, he became even more sullen, now utterly pale, his gaze icy.

"Liang Qi’s actions throughout his life have often been peculiar. He appears rash and impulsive, but truly following his exploits would reveal...

His rashness is mostly a façade, often reversing situations against the odds, with layered schemes and hidden aces.

This time, he seems utterly defeated, yet it’s precisely the moment for his hidden moves; it’s just not clear where they are?"

Xiao Chengyun’s gaze swept over the Pei family’s uncle and nephew, then over the chaotic street, although he couldn’t pinpoint the opponent’s hidden killing moves, he was certain they existed.

The true owner of the Azure Dragon Seal remains unknown.
