Starting My Cultivation With Time Management
Chapter 1055: 42: After completing the sky, go on a honeymoonChapter 1055: Chapter 42: After completing the sky, go on a honeymoon
Jiang Lian exercised her demonic techniques, slowly descending onto the surface of the Southern Sea, her gaze sweeping over the three female immortals.
The playful intent in her eyes seemed as if a cultivation powerhouse was scrutinizing children.
Yet, just by being glanced at by her, the three nearly simultaneously felt their hairs stand on end.
Deputy Sect Master of Mortal Life Path, Jiang Lian, although not well-known outside, has secretly become recognized among the high ranks of the Three Pure Orthodox Sect for her cultivation power, comparable to the mysterious Sect Master Wei Dongliu.
Sect Master Wei Dongliu’s power has been highly inconsistent throughout his battles. Whenever people have estimated his strength, he would suddenly pull out a hidden card at some point to quickly refresh everyone’s perception… To the point that now no one dares to estimate Wei Dongliu’s power, because they can’t be sure if he’s deliberately pretending to be weak.
However, Deputy Sect Master Jiang Lian follows another route. In the limited intelligence records, she rarely engages in conflict with others, and during several Demon Cult attacks on the Orthodox Sect, she did not appear. However, those records in which she did appear are laden with evident quirky and distorted speculations.
For example, the Free Patriarch of Heavenly Demon Path has been highly suspected of being replaced by an imposter, not only has their behavior in recent years been drastically different from before, but their actions severely favor Mortal Life Path’s interests, ignoring other affairs entirely, without even commenting on the fall of the sect leader and two seasoned elders. As a result, the internal forces of the Heavenly Demon Path have become extraordinarily divided, lacking their previous ability to compete with the Nether Ghost Path.
Considering Jiang Lian’s independence from Li Sect and subsequent appointment as the Deputy Sect Master of Mortal Life Path, a reasonable speculation arises: whether or not the Free Patriarch was replaced, this event is undoubtedly tied to Jiang Lian, the major benefactor.
What level of power does it take to manipulate immortals within one’s grasp?
Because of this, even the most fearless An Zhisu dared not impulsively attack Jiang Lian but rather assumed a stance of fighting to the death.
Shi Liuli backed half a step; her hand was already gripping the copper coin within her sleeve. Xu Yinglian remained unfazed but began consulting Feng Lan in her heart.
“This person is tricky to deal with.” Even though it was impossible to probe with spells, Feng Lan instinctively felt the danger, “I suggest we retreat first.”
“Probably hard to retreat.” Xu Yinglian glanced at An Zhisu, thinking if she could let this brute rush in and hold the line, she might seize the chance to retreat.
Then she noticed Shi Liuli was also staring at An Zhisu, seemingly with the same intention.
An Zhisu remained silent, although in an aggressive stance, her flying sword had yet to launch forward, which was indeed rare for her, who was accustomed to taking the offensive. It could only be said that her Innate Sword Heart seemed to have also sensed the slim chance of victory.
“Don’t be so tense.” Jiang Lian smiled gently, “Old Slave, is it here?”
“In reply to Sect Master.” The Flying Asura scurried over, sniffed the air a few times, and said, “Here, indeed, carries Sect Master’s presence, although the scent is faint, suggesting they didn’t linger long here, flew northeast, departing quickly, making it relatively difficult to track. Perhaps asking these few passersby?”
“Have you seen our Mortal Life Path’s sect master?” Jiang Lian asked with a smile.
No one answered her question.
An Zhisu purely entered a reactive state, staring at the opponent as if facing a formidable foe, completely unthinking of communication.
Xu Yinglian thought one step further, knowing that the opponent still wanted to extract answers from here, hence temporarily wouldn’t easily take action… But if a response was given, that “temporary not” might need removing.
Shi Liuli’s face twitched, as if considering a possibility, her sleeve subtly moved as she secretly cast lots but couldn’t lift her sleeve to look, only using her finger to feel the patterns, discerning right from wrong.
But Jiang Lian gave her no chance, casually explaining:
“Since there’s no answer, then kill them.”
The three felt as if plunged into an ice cave instantly, the next second only to see Jiang Lian morph into a black mist again, flying swiftly toward the East Sea, disappearing at the horizon in an instant.
The Flying Asura then menacingly approached, its malicious gaze sweeping over them, chuckling:
“Which one to eat first?”
As soon as the words fell, An Zhisu could no longer bear it and directly launched an attack on the Flying Asura.
Against Jiang Lian, she wasn’t confident, but against such ugly zombies, there was no holding back!
Flying Smoke Sword darted out, aiming right between the Flying Asura’s brows.
The opponent chuckled and reached out to grab the flying sword, as if entirely unafraid of the Divine Sword’s sharpness.
An Zhisu’s expression became frosty upon seeing this, her hand swiftly changing sword technique. Flying Smoke Sword rapidly changed direction, circling behind, while Harsh Cold Sword was launched once more from the front.
Dual sword strike!
Shushan’s Two-Handed Sword Control Technique is far from simple addition. Indeed, the Flying Asura could not withstand it, with the Flying Smoke Sword hitting its back, yet it remained unharmed.
“Annoying little insect…” It irritably reached to pull the sword from its back, but An Zhisu was quicker, the Flying Smoke Sword swiftly separating from its body, leaving only a dark wound, yet without any blood.
Seeing this, Xu Yinglian knew this creature was unaffected by sword injuries, quickly stimulated her entire True Yuan, unleashing the Great Bright Fire.
The Great Bright Fire has its own effect of warding off evil spirits, yet compared to Thunder Method it falls short. With the Flying Asura retreating continuously from the fire sea, yet it said:
