Free Web NovelChapter 294: Chapter 292: Come Out and Greet the Guest
"SHINK SHINK SHINK..."
Lu Beifeng was gaining continuous insight, almost forgetting he was fighting an enemy.
He thought he was merely practicing his Cultivation.
His sword moved faster and faster, thrusting out relentlessly.
And every time Lu Beifeng’s sword thrust out, it left another hole in Meng Kun’s body.
At this moment, Meng Kun could no longer execute a single slash of his saber.
"CLANG!"
With a loud noise, Meng Kun’s saber fell to the ground.
He couldn’t believe it. He could no longer block Lu Beifeng at all.
He had been suppressing Lu Beifeng just moments ago, but in the blink of an eye, he was utterly defeated.
He was surpassed by Lu Beifeng not only in aura but in speed as well.
Lu Beifeng even had a relentless forward momentum; if no one stopped him, he would become lost in his own state of insight.
His obsession, his fervor for the Sword Dao, made Lu Beifeng forget even himself.
"THUD!"
’I... am defeated...’
This was Meng Kun’s final thought.
He fell beneath Lu Beifeng’s sword.
"Brother..."
Meng Xing was stunned. He stood there, dumbfounded, watching his brother suddenly being overwhelmed by Lu Beifeng’s frenzied assault.
He hesitated for just a second.
And his brother had fallen beneath Lu Beifeng’s sword.
"No..."
He charged out frantically, trying to rescue his brother.
But by then, the frenzied Lu Beifeng had already slain Meng Kun.
He was already covered in wounds, bleeding from head to toe.
But he paid it no mind.
Having lost an opponent, he now craved another.
As Meng Xing charged, Lu Beifeng met him head-on, his Sword Intent shaking the heavens.
A faint, nascent Sword Intent was being born.
Lu Beifeng was on the verge of comprehending the Sword Dao.
"You killed my brother! Die!"
Meng Xing never imagined his brother would be slain by Lu Beifeng. Before he even had time to attempt a rescue, his brother had fallen.
The Steel Fork in his hand lashed out violently. ƒreewebηoveℓ.com
It struck Lu Beifeng’s body with immense force.
"Aargh..."
Lu Beifeng cried out in pain. Although he had made great strides on the path of the Sword Dao, his Cultivation was still at the Martial Master Second Realm; he hadn’t broken through.
His Sword Dao hadn’t broken through either.
He was just making progress.
Naturally, he was still no match for Meng Xing.
He was sent flying by Meng Xing’s blow.
He crashed to the ground.
"Beifeng!"
Zhan Yang and the others rushed forward to help Lu Beifeng up.
"COUGH, COUGH..."
Lu Beifeng coughed up blood relentlessly. Only now did he realize how severe his injuries were. After being sent flying by Meng Xing, the connection to that faint Sword Dao he had been on the verge of grasping was instantly severed.
He knew he had missed his chance.
However, at least he now knew the way forward.
Though severely injured and with no Combat Power left, he still smiled, and it was a happy smile.
"I’m fine."
He said, then looked at Jiang Chen.
Then, he slowly passed out.
His injuries were, once again, extremely severe.
Jiang Chen was very satisfied. With his guidance, Lu Beifeng would surely walk much further on the path of the Sword Dao.
It was just a casual pointer from him.
To him, it was nothing special.
But for Lu Beifeng, it was something that would affect the rest of his life.
"Aaargh..."
Clutching his brother’s corpse, Meng Xing let out a blood-curdling roar.
Then, his eyes turned red as he glared fiercely at Jiang Chen and his group.
"You... all of you will die."
"I’ll make you all join my brother in death!"
He stored away his brother Meng Kun’s corpse, his appearance becoming that of a madman, hair flying wildly.
Zhan Yang retorted angrily, "You brought this on yourselves! We were the ones who got the Moyang Flower!"
"You tried to rob us by force, thinking we were easy targets."
He was filled with indignation.
However, looking at the crazed Meng Xing, and with their strongest fighter, Lu Beifeng, now unconscious, they were no longer a match for him.
Meng Xing stared with bloodshot eyes.
He snarled, "Killing my brother was the biggest mistake you could have ever made."
"Today is the day you die!"
He charged forward, Steel Fork in hand, radiating killing intent.
JinLing, Zhan Yang, and Niu Tuo all paled.
At that moment, Jiang Chen said calmly, "You’re simply courting death. This world, after all, has its rules."
"You and your brother may have held the lives of others in contempt, but I’ll show you that we are not the pushovers you take us for."
"Provoking us was *your* biggest mistake." freёwebnovel.com
Seeing Jiang Chen dare to waste his time with words, Meng Xing’s expression grew even more savage.
"You little brat! I’ll slaughter you first!"
He hadn’t expected Jiang Chen to be so bold and arrogant—even more so than himself.
But Jiang Chen just clapped his hands lightly. "Xiaotian, come out and greet our guest."
As Jiang Chen’s words fell,
"HISSS... ROAR..."
a hiss filled with savage fury echoed from behind them.
The sound shook the canyon, traveling far into the distance.
"What was that sound?"
Hearing this, Meng Xing’s expression changed slightly.
He stopped in his tracks, looking behind Jiang Chen’s group with suspicion and alarm.
"RUMBLE..."
The mountain cliff began to tremble violently.
It was as if an earthquake had struck, accompanied by a constant roar.
After a short while.
"HISSS..."
Another hiss echoed out, and a gigantic brown serpent’s body abruptly emerged from the cave behind Jiang Chen and his companions.
The moment it appeared, it crushed the surrounding vegetation with a series of loud SNAPS.
It was the Celestial Brown Ridge Python.
Having been subdued by Jiang Chen, it was now completely obedient to him.
It hissed, its savage, ferocious head rising high as it slowly revealed itself behind Jiang Chen’s group.
Its massive, twenty-meter-long body was enough to make one’s skin crawl.
At that moment, Zhan Yang, JinLing, and Niu Tuo all breathed a sigh of relief.
Finally, the Celestial Brown Ridge Python had appeared.
After all, Meng Xing was an expert at the Martial Master Third Heaven, making him incredibly powerful.
The Celestial Brown Ridge Python was now also at the Martial Master Third Heaven. But it was common knowledge that at the same level of Cultivation, a Demon Beast was generally much stronger than a Martial Cultivator.
Therefore, if Meng Xing were to face the Celestial Brown Ridge Python, his chances of defeat would be much higher.
"GASP..."
"This... how is this possible?"
"The last time I saw the Celestial Brown Ridge Python, it was only at the Warrior Ninth Heaven. How did it suddenly become a Martial Master Third Heaven?"
He sucked in a sharp breath.
His face had been filled with killing intent just a moment ago.
But now, seeing the Celestial Brown Ridge Python guarding Jiang Chen and his group, he was horrified.
He had a sinking feeling that this Celestial Brown Ridge Python had been tamed.
That would explain its obedience.
After all, the Celestial Brown Ridge Python was known for being ferocious and tyrannical.
His expression changed drastically.
At the sight of the Celestial Brown Ridge Python, he instinctively took several steps back.
He exclaimed, "Impossible! How could this Celestial Brown Ridge Python be so powerful?"
Jiang Chen let out a scornful laugh.
"Nothing is impossible."
"Now you have your chance to slaughter me. Come on, then. Come and do it."
He couldn’t help but smile.
Meng Xing was actually scared now.
He was a classic case of a bully who preys on the weak and fears the strong.
Meng Xing nearly coughed up a mouthful of blood from sheer rage.
Jiang Chen was intentionally provoking him.
He knew that with the Celestial Brown Ridge Python present, there was nothing he could do to them today.
He was filled with indignation, but he was utterly helpless.
He pointed furiously at Jiang Chen and his companions. "You brat! Just you wait! You killed my brother, and I will repay this debt!"
With that said, he immediately backed away, preparing to flee.
He knew he couldn’t possibly defeat the Celestial Brown Ridge Python.
"Heh, did I say you could leave?"
