Chapter 181
Zhu Jian was completely ignored by Li Shiyin, but he did not dare to show the slightest dissatisfaction. Because at the moment the sword light flashed, he truly felt that he was infinitely close to death.
At that moment, he felt that he had no secrets in front of Li Shiyin, all his weaknesses were exposed; it was as if Li Shiyin had seen through him completely. When facing Li Shiyin, it was as if he was facing a high-level sword cultivator, not a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
He knew that if that sword had struck, he would have been powerless to resist.
The Cascade Star Sword that fell from the sky was not saving Li Shiyin, but saving him, Zhu Jian.
Although she had not really made a move yet, he had already lost.This chapter was first shared on the Ñøv€lß1n platform.
And not only Zhu Jian himself knew this, even the people behind him knew it too.
When Li Shiyin walked past Zhu Jian to ask them, someone couldn't withstand Li Shiyin's oppressive sword aura and took a step back, and then took another step back.
Some people stepped back, some didn't; some retreated smoothly, some stood firm under the pressure. Eight people remained in place, either capable or stubbornly standing their ground.
Those who retreated had already lost; those who didn't retreat hadn't lost yet.
Under the tremendous pressure, some gritted their teeth, drew their swords, and attacked Li Shiyin.
Li Shiyin didn't underestimate him, linking the Guiding Starlight Technique and Flying Immortal Questioning Dao, there was a flash of starlight, and she disappeared from Chasing The Wind's back. With a flick of her sword she sent his flying, then instantly reappeared on Chasing The Wind's back, as if she hadn't moved at all.
"Such...such powerful strength!" This person looked at his own flying sword, his sword-wielding hand trembling uncontrollably. At the same level of cultivation, he lost in one sword stroke.
No matter what the reason, when a swordsman can no longer hold his own sword steady, he should die. Because the sword is the swordsman's life. When a swordsman cannot grasp his sword, he cannot grasp his own life.
"Next." said Li Shiyin.
Another swordsman came forth...
Sensing that the two mischievous ones had returned, Qin Ran raised his head to glance at them, a vague smile on his face. "Chasing The Wind ran off, didn't he? Went to chase Chasing The Wind, didn't you? Chased him for a whole day, didn't you?!"
Li Shiyin had run off in the morning, and now it was already late afternoon nearing dusk, she had been out playing the entire day... After all, it would take some time to let all the demonic beasts in Dan Peak know that their lord now has a big sister too.
Seeing Qin Ran's expression, Li Shiyin knew that he wasn't truly angry. Hugging her sword, she twisted bashfully as she walked over to him, making a sound through her nose, "Mas...ter..."
How was this the sharp-as-sword-aura female sword immortal? Clearly just a girl who was skilled at acting coquettish.
Listening to it made Qin Ran's hackles rise, but he was actually quite pleased inside. Suppressing the smile at the corners of his mouth, he saw that Chasing The Wind was also rolling around on the ground next to them, exposing his belly to ask for forgiveness.
Trying hard to sound stern, but smiling, he said, "Don't try that with me, useless!"
Everyone knew whether it was actually useless or not.
He pointed at the empty space between Sword Washing Lake and the Research Building, and said, "Starting tomorrow, the two of you will build an awning there for me! And not only that, you two won't get any meals tomorrow either, as punishment!!"
To punish an immortal cultivator by not letting them eat, that truly was an extremely severe punishment... Ah no, one of them wasn't a cultivator, Chasing The Wind was a demonic beast, he truly needed blood and flesh as food, for him it really was an extremely harsh punishment. So it could only be said, the only one getting hurt was silly little Chasing The Wind.
But it didn't matter, this silly guy was stupid enough, he didn't know that actually only he was getting punished.
He had absolutely no idea that he was never supposed to be punished in the first place, he shouldn't have been punished from the start; he also didn't know that in essence, the only one truly being punished by this punishment was him.
This silly one even stopped to roll around, his white fur picking up a lot of mud. He chuckled towards Qin Ran, "Thanks, Dad!"
Qin Ran pointed at him, bitter laughter brimming forth―this silly tiger was fortunate to have followed him, if he had followed someone else, who knows when he might have been sold without even realizing, and would probably still be helping them count the money... if he had learned arithmetic by then, that is.
"It's... Master!" Li Shiyin replied listlessly.
And so starting the next day, Dan Peak's invincible female sword immortal and her Xuanming Spirit Tiger buddy began their glorious labor reform.
