Chapter 0009 124756414

Great! Wonderful! Today is truly a lucky day for us. Not only will we obtain ancient relics, but we will also acquire biological weapons from the East. My brothers and I will make a significant impact in the southern frontier. After today, the reputation of Chiri Manor and Tunyue Stronghold will soar, and nearby factions will no longer dare to underestimate us

The sound of maniacal laughter came from Tang Jun Gu's mouth, "If you were riding on a crane, commanding it, the true combat power of this battle crane could be unleashed, and we might not be able to suppress you. But you actually let it charge down to its death in a situation where there could be enemies lying in ambush. That means today both you and your beast are destined to die! Young lady, do you really think the outside world is still like your family's training ground, where everyone will play along with your combat games?"

Just a second ago, the imposing crane was suddenly struck down by a sword, leaving Meng Yan completely dumbfounded. However, looking at Jie Lin beside him, she was utterly lost, her shock far exceeding his own, making it impossible for her to respond to his question

... ... you ... ... don't cry ... ...

Meng Yan, who created miracles with a single move, did not fare much better. In his first battle of life, the gap between imagination and reality exacted a considerable toll on him. Although he managed to defeat two enemies with a single strike, the sword energy he unleashed was as dark as ink, unlike the golden sword energy described in the secret manual. When it was released, his fingers experienced an unusual pain, as if the bones could shatter or explode at any moment. A tremendous force rebounded, causing him to lose his balance and uncontrollably tumble backward, rolling away.

Under the suppression of rank, the disciples of these sects were unable to exert their expected combat power, watching helplessly as the great crane soared in, its claws outstretched, flying towards its master, ready to directly seize Ye Jielin and take her away. However, at that moment, a dark green beam of light, several meters long, shot up into the sky.

It resembled the action of launching a hidden weapon, but what was ejected was not a concealed weapon; instead, it was two streaks of ink-like black light emanating from Meng Yan's thumb, directed at the two disciples of the Red Sun Manor. Their Red Sun Flame Sabers met the black light, resulting in two crisp sounds. First, the red flames were extinguished by the black light, followed by the shattering of their weapons. Ultimately, the two wielders of the sabers were pierced through by the black light, leaving two blood holes where they were struck, and they perished in an instant.

Ye Jielin's astonishment was no less than that of the disciples from both factions. She had encountered many strange and peculiar weapons, but the black light she had just witnessed was unprecedented. She was very curious about what exactly this young man had done and how he had acquired such technology or ability

The young boy sought a few words of comfort, but the booming laughter outside quickly drowned out his voice

What is it? Why can't anyone understand?

However, I am still very grateful to you, the young lady of the Ye family, for going out of your way to send us such valuable items. Ancient relics are not easily encountered. Since you will only waste it, once it is in your possession, that shield will belong to me. As for you...

The boy who had always been overlooked suddenly jumped out and shouted: "Taking advantage of someone, don't really think you're a god. Bullying a girl like this, what does that count for? If you have the guts, come out and defeat me first!"

It was precisely because of my father's words that I took the time to practice the Undying Phoenix Sword technique. However, it has only been for practice, and I have not yet had the opportunity to use it. Perhaps today will be the chance to put it into practical use. I just wonder how much power this technique possesses... Can it enable someone like me, with no combat experience, to break through...

The disciples of both factions shouted in unison, unable to remain calm. They were even more astonished than when they had just seen Jie Zhi take out the ancient relic, for the ancient relic was something they could comprehend. However, this young man before them had not used any weapon; with just a flick of his hand, he emitted a black light and killed two of their members. What was going on? It was more unbelievable than seeing a ghost, completely beyond their understanding, leaving them in utter astonishment.

Hahaha, indeed, it is an inexperienced and foolish heiress. A weapon must be integrated with its wielder to unleash its maximum combat power, and this is especially true for higher-level weapons. This crane should be a biological weapon newly developed by the Ye family, yet you actually let it charge down like this

Everyone believed that the inevitable result of those two strikes would be the boy being cleaved in two, instantly meeting his demise in flames. However, no one expected that as the two strikes approached, the boy appeared to be stunned with fear, not moving an inch. Then, suddenly, his two thumbs, which had been pressed down, sprang up.

What weapon? What weapon did he use? Or ... ...

Unfortunately, the boy who is in so much pain that everything before his eyes has turned black is unable to respond

Ye Jielin's explanation left Meng Yan utterly confused. "The suppression of the rank of battle weapons? But that doesn't make sense. The swords and blades they are holding are battle weapons; what battle weapon is suppressing them? Is your great crane a battle weapon?"

A mere large crane, theoretically posing a limited threat, yet Meng Yan observed the expressions of the disciples from various sects, and it was not the case. When the crane swooped down from above, it seemed to release something; Meng Yan could only vaguely sense a hint of it, akin to a few drops of icy water splashed on someone's head. However, the disciples from the sects fared much worse, their faces turning pale as if they had fallen into an ice cellar. The swords and weapons in their hands were actually emanating white frost, and some even began to freeze, causing their wrist guards to suffer frostbite.

Rank suppression! High-level weapons can exert suppression on low-level weapons

Previously, my work was merely to conceal; the ones committing murder were the villagers of Little Corner. The process had nothing to do with me. Aside from occasional hunting and having experience in fighting wild beasts, I had never engaged in combat with people, let alone had any experience in fighting. However, that does not mean I lack combat ability. Ever since I took on this job, my father has been advising me earnestly.

The other disciples present from various sects also burst into loud laughter, creating a deafening noise. Meng Yan, holding a short knife, looked at the girl beside him and said, "At a time like this, don't just stand there in a daze; quickly think about what we should do next. Otherwise, we will be swept away by others..."

This matter involves the secrets of the Aoki family. Ye Jielin cannot explain it; she herself was equally unaware of it until now. Upon witnessing her crane's sudden transformation, her shock was greater than anyone else's. She could only stand there in a daze and say: "... I have heard of this matter, but I never expected that they would actually do it, truly... for my sake..."

Meng Yan seemed to understand yet not fully grasp the situation. Raising his head to take a closer look, he discovered that the crane's claws, long beak, and wings all emitted a peculiar radiant energy, similar to the weapons held by the disciples of various sects. Perhaps this was how the suppression of weapon ranks occurred. However, how could a poultry creature also possess weapons? This world is truly insane

The boy's furious roar resembled that of a young lion, yet it failed to attract much attention from the crowd. Tang Jun Gu did not even glance in his direction, as two disciples from the Chiri Manor, armed with weapons, unleashed their blades, igniting red flames as they struck forward.

What does this ... ... mean? What is the situation?

It is not a weapon, hetushu.com, he has always been empty-handed, there are other reasons

Surrounded by so many people, not only was Ye Jielin's expression grave, but even Meng Yan felt a sense of unease in his heart. Anyone who is not a fool would understand that this time it would be very difficult for him to remain uninvolved.

Work that pertains to life and death is inherently high-risk. Although we often begin to tidy up only after events have concluded, one can never be certain when they might become embroiled in such matters. To ensure that, after that day, you can continue to collect the dead rather than have no one to collect your own remains, you must possess strength

Before he could finish speaking, Meng Yan noticed that Jie Lin was staring blankly at the large crane lying on the ground, her eyes revealing an expression of profound sorrow, as if the creature bleeding over there was not merely livestock, but rather her long-time friend or a family member... Her pale face showed not a trace of color, with only her eyes turning red...

Entirely ice blue, standing approximately two and a half meters tall, its size and color are entirely different compared to before. Not only is it a size larger, but with its wings spread, it drags a blue light through the air, leaving a long blue trail behind. Its long claws and beak give the crane a raptor-like majesty. Upon its appearance, it swiftly dives downwards at high speed, heading straight towards its master.

The azure sword light slashed down, and the blue radiance on the great crane's wings appeared almost tangible, resembling a thin shield. It momentarily hindered the attack, but ultimately could not stop it. The azure sword light surged forward, forcefully severing the great crane's left wing, causing blood to spurt out in a crimson spray. Following this, the great crane crashed heavily to the ground, and Tang Jun Gu stomped down hard on the great crane, laughing maniacally.

Tang Jun's faction was in a state of triumphant exuberance, with his fellow disciples following suit, howling and shouting, reaching the peak of excitement

Meng Yan was lost in thought when a sharp screech pierced the air; it was the great crane of the Ye family! It had come soaring directly without being summoned by the owner of the library, but it was different from its earlier form

What is going on? What did that guy do?

Tang Jun Gu stepped on the great crane, pointing at Ye Jielin and laughing heartily, "Such a delicate little girl, we will certainly not waste you. After all our junior brothers have enjoyed you, we will definitely capture your radiant appearance in images, spreading it across the eastern lands and southern regions, allowing the Ye family to gain great honor"

In the moment he was thrown away, besides the excruciating pain in his fingers as if they were shattered bones, a severe headache began to throb in the boy's mind, as if some foreign object had started to move within his head. Activated by his first battle, that foreign object in his brain continuously released energy fluctuations, affecting everything within. Meng Yan felt a pain that penetrated to the marrow, and the world spun around him, plunging him into intense dizziness, rendering him completely unable to think. If it weren't for Ye Jielin being right behind him, seeing him hurtling forward like a cannonball, she quickly reached out to block and pull him back, staggering back seven or eight steps to stabilize him. At that moment, it was uncertain how far he would fly or how many things he would crash into.

Wow, what is this...

What is going on with you? Also, what was it that you just did? I didn't see your weapon, what exactly are you...

You all! Don't go too far!

Once again, a burst of wild laughter erupted, as the disciples from the two nearby factions laughed together, rendering a small voice nearly inaudible.

The source of the green beam emanated from a dark green longsword, held in the hands of Tang Jun Gu. With the sword in hand, he exuded an imposing presence, a stark contrast to his earlier demeanor. The weapon coalesced into armor, enveloping his hand and extending to his right shoulder, drawing upon the wielder's vital energy and transforming it into unparalleled strength, invincible and unyielding. In a single leap, he brandished the sword, timing it perfectly for the moment the great crane's claws were about to strike Ye Jielin. Although Ye Jielin saw it and her gaze was filled with horror, it was already too late for her to cry out.
