Celestial Master: I Have an Otherworld-Chapter 111 - 47: Brutal Fight
So ruthless!
Fang Zheng was watching everything unfold from behind, his heart filled with mixed emotions.
In modern society, people also scheme against each other in the workplace, but rarely does it lead to life-and-death matters or involve one's family.
Here,
it's completely different.
To achieve one's goals, no means is too extreme, and even eliminating threats at the root is standard practice.
Without Linghu An's assistance, Zhang Kao would not have been a match for the Mountain-Turning Tiger, and after a brief struggle, he was torn apart by a flurry of blades.
Upon his death,
his face still showed unwillingness.
"Tan Dong."
Only at this moment did Linghu An step forward:
"The grievances from many years ago, let's settle them here today between you and me!"
His voice was calm and steady, but it carried an invisible aura of killing intent, causing the bonfire inside the broken temple to flicker wildly.
Fang Zheng, carrying the Magic Altar on his back, licked his somewhat parched lips, his body already tensed.
There's a chance!
'Linghu An managed to raise the Ling Family from obscurity to one of the two top families in Gu'an County, and his fame even reached the Prefecture City. He definitely isn't reckless.'
'He could withdraw the Mountain-Turning Tiger's henchmen and find his way here, he must have a strong assurance of taking down his opponent.'
'But...'
'I don't know when the people behind can catch up. As long as we withstand the counterattack of the Mountain-Turning Tiger and his men, we should have this in the bag.'
"Good!"
The Mountain-Turning Tiger roared angrily, swinging his Mountain-opening Saber forcefully, and a formless Sword Qi whistled out, instantly cutting down the supporting pillar of the broken temple.
Sword Qi?
Although Fang Zheng hadn't clearly seen when Linghu An took action earlier, this time he saw it clearly.
There really was Sword Qi!
However, it's nearly indistinguishable to the naked eye. Instead, the body is more sensitive to it, able to feel the fierce qi even at a distance of several dozen meters.
Martial Artists who have trained in True Qi have indeed surpassed the ordinary realm.
"Boom!"
With the supporting beam lost, the already unstable broken temple collapsed with a loud crash, bricks and stone debris flying through the air, and one person leaped out from the rubble.
The Mountain-Turning Tiger, Tan Dong!
But in contrast to his fierce declaration, his actions were quite the opposite. He retreated several meters with a leap, abandoning others and fleeing toward the dense forest behind.
"Escaping?"
Linghu An's expression was icy:
"Do you think you can escape?"
Before his words had fully landed, he vanished from his spot, his speed astonishing, making Fang Zheng's heart skip a beat.
This speed...
Within seven steps, even a gun might be useless!
Unless the person holding the gun is a Three Blood Martial Artist, they wouldn't even have a chance to react.
"Swoosh!"
"Swoosh swoosh!"
The two figures weaved through the forest one after another.
The Mountain-Turning Tiger, nicknamed Mountain-Turning, had been climbing and roaming the forests since he was young, and was naturally skilled at navigating mountain paths at night. But now, he was injured.
The injuries weren't light.
Moreover, Linghu An's Body Technique was equally impressive, and the distance between the two was rapidly closing.
"Ha!"
The Mountain-Turning Tiger leapt high, stepping onto a tree trunk, but this time, instead of using the momentum to move forward, he reversed his body and swung his sword fiercely at his pursuer.
Tiger Slayer Saber!
"Wu..."
The saber light flashed, a tiger's roar emerged, like the king of a hundred beasts breaking free. A fierce and ominous aura rushed forth, causing Linghu An to pause in his tracks. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
"Zheng!"
A sword was drawn!
The sword flowed like a gentle stream, seemingly fragile, but in reality incredibly resilient. The ferocity of the Tiger Slayer Saber fell short, stopping mere inches short of success.
The next moment.
The Sword Form surged.
Like raging waves, rolling and crashing in all directions.
Not only did it envelop the Mountain-Turning Tiger, Tan Dong, but also shrouded two shadows that appeared, attempting to launch a surprise attack from the side, within the range of the Sword Momentum.
"Ding ding dang dang..."
The sound of successive clashes rang out.
"Puff!"
Blood splattered, and someone staggered backward.
"Grand Circulation!"
The Mountain-Turning Tiger's eyes widened, his voice filled with disbelief:
"How is this possible?"
"There's nothing impossible about it." Linghu An stood with his sword, a man in mourning white, overpowering the three until they couldn't catch their breaths:
"I've been practicing for over a decade, progressing from Minor Circulation to Grand Circulation, and it's already considered slow."
"Of course..."
"For you, achieving Minor Circulation in a lifetime is the best you can hope for."
"Tan Dong." Among the two people who appeared later, one person shouted angrily:
"Didn't you say he was just a Minor Circulation Martial Artist? He's a Grand Circulation! Now both my sibling and I have to suffer the consequences."
"Don't worry."
The Mountain-Turning Tiger gritted his teeth:
"There's only one of him, and three of us. Victory is assured."
"Linghu An!"
"Do you think I dared to provoke the Ling Family at this moment for no reason? Do you think I'm foolish, thinking I could challenge you alone?"
"Since you've come today, don't think about leaving!"
"Humph!" Linghu An snorted lightly. Even though there were now two opponents who had cultivated True Qi, his expression remained unchanged, his gaze indifferent:
"I didn't expect you'd dare to conspire with demon people to ambush an official of the Imperial Court, and nearly succeed at that."
?
Suddenly, the field fell silent.
The Mountain-Turning Tiger's eyes narrowed:
"You know?"
"Indeed." Linghu An's voice was calm:
"The County Magistrate of Gu'an County is about to be promoted, and the new County Captain is on the way. Once the Magistrate is promoted, the new Captain will take over the duties."
"The new County Captain's identity is extraordinary, yet you dared to plot a halfway assassination. How bold!"
The hearts of the three sank.
This matter was extremely secretive, even the closest people around the Mountain-Turning Tiger didn't know about it. Where did Linghu An get the information?
"I should thank you all."
Linghu An spoke again:
"Bringing your heads to meet the new County Captain will surely win his favor. When the County Captain gets promoted, it will also be the time for the Ling Family to step out of Gu'an County."
"Therefore..."
The long sword trembled lightly:
"I ask the three of you to offer your heads!"
Of course, he knew what the Mountain-Turning Tiger was doing, but so what? He was confident in himself, with the only concern being what lay behind.
