Chapter 421: Chapter 197: Martial Arts Inheritance, Blood Feud
A Spear Intent Fragment could be used for both defense and attack.
When condensed into a sharp edge, Spear Intent possessed the power to cut through iron as if it were mud. It could not only pierce a six-layered Dharma Aspect with ease but also slice through a Qi Sea Gang Shield. The two men were caught completely off guard by Chu Lingguang. They never expected that after unleashing a triple Potential Energy Superposition, he could still erupt with a terrifying Spear Intent Fluctuation.
Not only did it slow their movements, but the condensed edge of Spear Intent also took their heads.
It all happened in a flash. Eunuch Liu, who had been rushing over, was also stunned by the scene before him. ’Chu Lingguang actually managed to kill two experts at the Qi Sea Perfection realm?’ fгeewebnovёl.com
"What kind of Hidden Weapon did you use?"
He thought Chu Lingguang had used some kind of trick with a Hidden Weapon.
’But what kind of Hidden Weapon could cut through the defense of a six-layered Dharma Aspect and not even be blocked by a Qi Sea Gang Shield?’
"No, that’s not it. Your...?"
But Eunuch Liu quickly noticed something was strange about their wounds.
The cuts were clean and smooth, as if made by a Divine Soldier. While the Lightning Spear in Chu Lingguang’s hand was of a high grade, it was still a far cry from a Divine Soldier.
"Spear Intent."
With a flick of his Long Spear, Chu Lingguang unleashed a wave of Spear Intent Fluctuation.
He realized Eunuch Liu had come to save him. Although he didn’t know why, there was no reason to hide it from someone who had traveled so far on his behalf.
He had, of course, already told Guo Wei about awakening his Spear Intent. In fact, it was Guo Wei who had taught him that a Spear Intent Fluctuation could change its state to form both offense and defense, and even cover the tip of his spear to create an invisible, sharpened edge.
"What?"
"You’ve actually comprehended Spear Intent."
"Hahaha, that’s wonderful! You are truly blessed. I am so happy for you."
Eunuch Liu was dumbfounded. After confirming that the terrifying power was indeed a Spear Intent Fluctuation, he felt a mix of shock and joy, loss and envy. Chu Lingguang was loyal, kind, and valued his relationships above all else. For such a person to receive this kind of blessing, Eunuch Liu was genuinely happy.
’It’s just a pity that a man like him isn’t my disciple,’ Liu Xun thought with a pang of loss, feeling incredibly envious of Guo Wei.
"Eunuch Liu, what brings you to Liu Family Gully all of a sudden?"
Chu Lingguang asked.
"On my way back, I ran into a few Turkic people. From them, I learned..."
Eunuch Liu explained the whole story.
"I, Lin Guang, will never forget this kindness for as long as I live—you came a thousand li to save me!"
Chu Lingguang was deeply moved and hurriedly knelt to kowtow. He and Eunuch Liu were not related, nor were they old friends; the man simply admired him. Yet he had traveled a great distance, tailing several assassins from the Celestial Fragrance Pavilion, all to save him. This was a debt of gratitude he could not ignore.
"Ah, there’s no need for such formality with me. It seems I was overthinking things. With your strength, the average assassin from Celestial Fragrance Pavilion is no match for you. It seems I made this trip for nothing."
Eunuch Liu said, pulling Chu Lingguang up by the arm.
"Your kindness is no different from having saved my life,"
Chu Lingguang said solemnly.
"Let’s not talk about that for now. Your master is still tied up with two True Martial Realm experts."
Eunuch Liu also knew Chu Lingguang wouldn’t forget his kindness.
"What? My master... he..."
Chu Lingguang’s expression changed in alarm, and he started to run toward the Martial Arts Hall.
"Don’t go. You can’t interfere in a battle between True Martial Realm experts. Even with your newly awakened Spear Intent, you’re no match for them. Stay here. I’ll go help your master."
Eunuch Liu said earnestly, holding Chu Lingguang back.
"That’s great! Thank you, Eunuch."
Chu Lingguang was overjoyed. Eunuch Liu’s Soft and Flexible Technique was unfathomably profound. With him going to support Guo Wei, his master should be safe.
"I’m off!"
Eunuch Liu’s figure blurred into motion, shooting toward the Martial Arts Hall. Bounding across the rooftops, he cleared Liu Family Gully in a few leaps and entered the wheat fields, quickly disappearing from sight at a speed Chu Lingguang could only dream of matching.
’My strength might not be much help, but I can’t just stand here and do nothing.’
Chu Lingguang decided to go take a look.
A battle between several True Martial Realm experts was a grand spectacle in itself.
With his Wind-Chasing Step at the Perfection level, Chu Lingguang took off, running out of Liu Family Gully. At his current level, he still couldn’t leap across rooftops like Eunuch Liu or Guo Wei. The Wind-Chasing Step only allowed his running speed to skyrocket in a straight line.
However, his current speed was still somewhat inferior to that of the Little Prince and Yan Zhen from that day. It wasn’t because his Wind-Chasing Step wasn’t high-level enough, but mainly because his own cultivation was weaker. freeweɓnøvel.com
WHOOSH!
But just then, a sharp, whistling sound shot out from the wheat fields.
Having just left Liu Family Gully, Chu Lingguang was caught completely by surprise.
Fortunately, his Spiritual Sense was powerful and his perception was astonishing. With a quick block of his Long Spear, Chu Lingguang deflected the incoming object.
It was a Flying Knife.
Three of them, in fact.
His Spear Technique blocked them all with ease.
"How is that possible?"
A black-clad figure in the wheat field looked on in disbelief. Seeing the ambush had failed, he turned to flee.
"Where do you think you’re going?"
Chu Lingguang had no intention of letting him escape.
His Wind-Chasing Step allowed him to rapidly close the distance with the man in black. Facing an assassin who had been hiding in the shadows to take his life, Chu Lingguang didn’t hold back. He unleashed his Flesh and Blood Divine Abilities, executing a spear thrust from a distance.
The man in black shuddered, feeling a sharp pain in his chest.
He threw another three Flying Knives.
At the same time, he ran toward Zhang Family Gully.
CLANG!
Chu Lingguang blocked them easily once again.
He noticed the man in black’s speed was about the same as his own, but his figure seemed to blend into the shadows. It was as if some special fluctuation emanating from his body could block the probing of his Spiritual Sense.
Otherwise, with his Perception Power, he would have spotted the man the moment he left Liu Family Gully.
So, he released a Spear Intent Fluctuation. With a swing of his Long Spear, an edge of Spear Intent, invisible to the naked eye, shot toward the man’s back like an arrow loosed from its string.
