Chapter 36 – Had to fight back
As soon as Lin Jichen's words fell, he launched a sudden attack on Kuang Xiaoyan and his men, arriving in an instant.
Kuang Xiaoyan was once again shocked by his opponent's speed.
Feng Shang had said this guy was also at the middle stage of Qi Refining, but his speed was at least three to four times faster than his own!
Before he could process this information, Lin Jichen's sword was already coming for his life!
Kuang Xiaoyan raised his spear to block. He was a spear cultivator, and the attack range of his spear far exceeded that of a sword.
The spear shot out like a dragon!
The spear in Kuang Xiaoyan's hand transformed into a silver dragon, roaring towards Lin Jichen.
He was confident that Lin Jichen would be forced to retreat.
Otherwise, he would take this spear head-on.
Unexpectedly, Lin Jichen not only didn't retreat but charged forward to meet the spear!
Just before the spear was about to pierce him, Lin Jichen lifted his Crimson Cloud Sword and performed a precise upward flick, deflecting the spear tip!
Fuck! What kind of move is that?
Kuang Xiaoyan was stunned.
After deflecting the spear, Lin Jichen didn't slow down, charging forward like a fierce tiger descending the mountain.
With an imposing aura, he closed the distance to within sword range and struck fiercely!
Kuang Xiaoyan quickly retracted his spear, trying to mimic Lin Jichen's move, raising his spear to flick away the sword.
He wanted to deflect Lin Jichen's sword in the same manner.
However, Lin Jichen's sword speed was astonishingly fast, and his movements were unpredictable.all new stories at n0ve/lbi/n(.)com
Not only did Kuang Xiaoyan fail to deflect the sword, but he also exposed his body to Lin Jichen's blade.
As the sword flashed, a shocking wound appeared on Kuang Xiaoyan's shoulder.
"-300!"
Fuck!
Kuang Xiaoyan cursed in fear. What kind of insane damage is this?
He was at the middle stage of Qi Refining, with a base defense of 20 points. He had also taken a mid-grade Gathering Qi Pill, which gave him 15 free attribute points, of which he allocated 5 to defense.
Combined with his sect's attire and a Spirit Grade defensive belt, his defense totaled 40 points!
The belt's attributes were inferior to his Rhinoceros Belt, so Lin Jichen lost interest after a glance.
It was only then that Kuang Xiaoyan realized his belt had been looted.
He cursed loudly at the sect's resurrection point. That was his only piece of Spirit Grade equipment, and it was the guild's first Spirit Grade item!
Now, not only did they fail to snatch the boss, but they also lost a piece of Spirit Grade equipment and so many brothers.
Since they were the aggressors, they all had red names, and the death penalty was severe, causing a significant drop in their cultivation.
On the other hand, the Moon Shadow Guild, although they lost many members, only suffered minor cultivation experience loss as they had white names.
Moreover, the Blood Fiend Guild members fled in such a hurry that they didn't have time to loot the Moon Shadow Guild's equipment. None of the Moon Shadow Guild members lost any gear.
In contrast, the Soul Burial Mounds of the Blood Fiend Guild members they killed contained quite a few pieces of Ordinary Grade equipment.
In summary, the Blood Fiend Guild's operation this time was a complete failure, losing both their men and their equipment, a total disaster.
"Master Lin, thank you so much this time."
After the battle, Su Wanling and a female mage walked up to Lin Jichen to express their gratitude.
Lin Jichen waved his hand and replied earnestly, "No need to thank me. I didn't intend to help you. They came looking for trouble first, so I had to fight back."
Su Wanling smiled wryly. Listen to this, does it even sound like human speech?
The female mage beside her also spoke up, "Regardless, thank you, Mr. Lin, for your help. Without you, we would have been wiped out today."
Up close, Lin Jichen finally saw the female mage's appearance clearly. She was even more beautiful than Su Wanling.
The woman wore a light green robe, her skin fairer than snow, eyes like stars, with an elegant and refined demeanor, exuding an extraordinary grace.
Her tall and slender figure stood upright, her stunning face carrying a reserved and noble aura that kept people at a distance, making her unforgettable at first sight.
Looking closely at the staff in her hand, Lin Jichen remembered it was the Illuminating Staff he had sold to Su Wanling. No wonder it looked familiar.
"It's no big deal."
Facing the woman's gratitude, Lin Jichen seemed indifferent.
He remembered something and said, "By the way, I've already dealt with the Medicine Spirit Falcon, and here's the equipment it dropped."
As he spoke, Lin Jichen laid out the equipment he had just picked up from the falcon. Su Wanling and the female mage couldn't help but be curious about what good items the falcon had dropped.
When they saw the number of items Lin Jichen laid out, both women were stunned, their eyes wide open.
Lin Jichen had laid out six items in total. What kind of drop rate was this?
They had never seen a monster so generous. Could the falcon's drop rate be this high?
