Whoosh!
With a flow of light, they had dropped onto the island. Qin Wushuang stopped his body and stood steady to better observe his surrounding environment.
He also heard that voice a moment ago. For this ninth island, there were many spiritual beasts at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage. Therefore, at this island, besides the threat from opponents, he must also be vigilant against the threat from those that live on the island.
However, now Qin Wushuang did not have any other choice. At this point, he could only fight with full force and aim to achieve the best result!
He took out the Observant Finger Jade Plate and immediately locked onto the position of the other four people.
Qin Wushuang revealed a seemingly bitter melon expression as he gave an inner sigh. “Indeed the heavens failed to meet my needs. Senior Brother Taichong is so far from me. But it seems each person is rather far from each other. Those three guys will certainly think of ways to move against Senior Brother Taichong.”
He could see this intention through the gaze from those three people on the transportation platform.
Qin Wushuang had an incredibly sensitive grasp on the situation. He knew that under such circumstances, it would not be the most ideal choice to regroup with Senior Brother Taichong.
It was because most likely, those three people would form an alliance through mutual understanding and launch a siege against the Qin disciples even though the rules forbid such an alliance.
However, for this mutual understanding, they could squeeze through a loop in the rules!
“It seems, I must adjust the tactic. There is only one way to seize the top four and allow Senior Brother Taichong to get disqualified later. As long as any of those three are one step later than Senior Brother Taichong, we could lock the top four positions!” Thinking here, Qin Wushuang observed the Observant Finger Jade Plate again and suddenly, he drew back the corner of his mouth. “Lu Qingchuan from the Flying Rainbow Daoist Sect? It’ll be you!”
Going with the screen of the jade plate, the position of this Lu Qingchuan was the closest to Qin Wushuang. He was about three thousand miles away from him.
For Senior Brother Taichong and the other two, they were at least ten thousand miles away from him.
Therefore, Qin Wushuang decided to take this gamble with Lu Qingchuan from the Flying Rainbow Daoist Sect… Qin Wushuang did not feel a good impression from this name.
For your information, the first day when they had entered the Immortal Leaf Flying Boat, they had met with someone named Lu Yixiao that had claimed to be from the Flying Rainbow Daoist Sect. He had tricked them into the immortal leaf flying boat and caused them to suffer greatly.
Up to this point, Qin Wushuang had no clue what was going on. Since this Lu Qingchuan was the closest to him, he would make a move against this Lu Qingchuan!
Upon thinking here, Qin Wushuang urged all the spiritual Qi from his body and circulated it through his body. Since he were to make a move this time, regardless if whether or not the other party had cast a tracking talisman on him, he must get rid of it. Or else, the other party would discover his approach easily.
Qin Wushuang was a person with an extremely keen sense. Of course, he could not make such low mistakes.
Lu Qingchuan was a girl and the only girl in the top five. Only, this Lu Qingchuan had always enjoyed to dress as a man. At this moment, she had appeared to be an elegant young master and slowly opened her eyes under a giant tree!
“Woo!” Lu Qingchuan let out a mouthful of turbid air and a twisted curved line formed from her long shapely eyebrows. She thought, “That Qin Clan is not the head sect of the Xuan Yuan Mound, why are they so devilish? In the top five, they have two people? That Qin Taichong holds mediocre strength, why would he deserve to be in the top five? He must have stepped on unexpected success.”
“And that Qin Wushuang, from his strength, he has not even entered the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage. I Just don’t know what dishonest practice he has been doing that he deserves to rank in the top five with me…”
Lu Qingchuan was a girl that had an unconditional superstitious belief in strength. Having received a traditional education from the Illusion Heavenly Lake, Lu Qingchuan was also brutally harsh to men.
Although her degree of abnormal hatred towards men was less than that Female Celestial Miao Yun of the Emei Daoist Sect, her self-worth was not shallow.
“Ling Tianzhi and Jiang Kui must share the same idea as me. We cannot let the Qin Clan be the ones laughing in the end. It’s time to move.” Lu Qingchuan raised the corner of her mouth and revealed a proud complexion. As if a beautiful peacock, she was incredibly narcissistic.
“Hm?” Suddenly Lu Qingchuan was moved inwardly. “Someone?”
With one thought, she already put her hand onto the handle of her sword. She pulled out a pair of short swords that resembled the limpid autumn water. As terrifying as the trembling forest, they shot out dazzling lights.
“Miss Lu, don’t be nervous.” A figure shot from the sky and it was Ling Tianzhi.
“Nervous?” Lu Qingchuan raised the corner of her mouth. “Ling Tianzhi, do you think you are qualified to make me nervous?”
Ling Tianzhi laughed. “That’s right, Miss Lu you are stronger than me. However, the competition between us should not seem to appear at this ninth island, right?”
Lu Qingchuan moved her imposing brows. “what do you mean? You have not come here to persuade me to form an alliance, right?”
“Ha ha, of course not. Since we are not from the same sect, it’s forbidden to form an alliance.” Ling Tianzhi said with a slight smile, “Of course I know about this. However, my first target this time is not you or Jiang Kui. My exact target, you should know.”
Lu Qingchuan was well aware, yet she said, “I do not know.”
Ling Tianzhi let out a laugh. “Have you locked onto your target, miss Lu?”
Lu Qingchuan said, “Do you want to ask whether my target is you or someone else?”
Ling Tianzhi said proudly, “If you are rather calm, it should never be me. Alright, let’s not talk anymore. It would appear as though we have formed an alliance if we speak too much. Ha ha, let’s mind our own business, how about it?”
Lu Qingchuan gave a slight sneer. “Do as you wish.”
At this moment, Lu Qingchuan’s complexion had changed all of sudden. At the same time, Ling Tianzhi’s expression also turned slightly cold.
“What’s going on?”
Ao!
With a loud bang, from the lush forest, a giant snake with a dark back scrambled out aggressively. Rolling its horribly ugly body, it spit out that extreme fishy smelling tongue. Just like a giant rope, it seemed to be incredibly horrifying.
“This is a spiritual beast at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage!” Ling Tianzhi shouted.
Clearly Lu Qingchuan had realized this already as she gave a pampered sigh. “Good, it has come. I was worried about having nothing to practice with! Ling Tianzhi, you can get lost!”
At this moment, suddenly dark lights had emitted greatly from the underbrush on the east side. As if appearing out of nowhere, a valiant giant beast scrambled out. Displaying a mane of steel thorns, it appeared abnormally fierce. The scale amour of its entire body also appeared to be incredibly domineering. With one loud roar, it seemed the entire sky was trembling.
“Another one!” Ling Tianzhi gave a low shout.
Whoosh, whoosh!
From the south and north side, two more spiritual beasts scrambled out. One was a golden ox with a giant body and one was a giant tiger beast with red patches all over its body.
Four… Four spiritual beasts!
Although Lu Qingchuan was conceited, she could not but help to withdraw a breath of cold air.
Ling Tianzhi said casually, “Miss Lu, deference is no substitute for obedience, I will get lost first. You should be able to deal with these, right?”
Lu Qingchuan felt the numbness traveling on her scalp. If it were one or two, she had the confidence to deal with it. Yet four spiritual beasts of the Exquisite Mysterious Boundary Stage had appeared all of a sudden, how could Lu Qingchuan still carry that confidence?
Her expression had turned slightly cold as she glared at Ling Tianzhi. “You wanted to escape, however do you think you can get away? Regardless which direction you try to escape, certainly they will try to attack you first!”
Ling Tianzhi let out a bitter smile. “Then what should I do?”
Lu Qingchuan gave a cold sneer, “You can do whatever you want.”
Ling Tianzhi gave a long sigh:.”It seems I can only fight alongside with you. Ah, I am so unlucky, how come four devilish spiritual beasts have appeared all of a sudden?”
Lu Qingchuan said coldly, “Stop with this nonsense, two for each person, get your pick.”
“Roar!” That giant golden ax was the first one to move. It swayed its head to the side and urged its two golden light-like ox horns all of a sudden. Like two sharp blades, it urged with its four hoofs and its entire body emitted red lightning that charged forth. The two gigantic ox horns had formed two surges of air streams to pierce at his enemies!
At the same time, the giant snake with a dark back also followed to twist its body. It flung its tail and lashed out an echoing whip attack that carried the strength to shatter the sky which smashed heavily into Lu Qingchuan’s head!
Boom!
It was like the imposing manner of a mountain bearing down on her!
With a body as light as a swallow, Lu Qingchuan moved her body gracefully. Holding two swords and letting out a tender shout along the wind direction, she criss-crossed her swords and lashed out cross shaped lights to slash at the head of the dark giant snake.
To Lu Qingchuan’s surprise, the instant when she moved her body, the other two spiritual beasts also charged at her mutually!
Especially the spiritual beast with a steel thorn mane, which opened its mouth widely as a surge of tremendous power formed a giant whirlpool with a flint of dark light. The absorption power produced instantly formed into a lump of atmosphere causing Lu Qingchuan’s body to feel a sense of stagnation.
“No!” Inwardly, Lu Qingchuan felt anxious. She didn’t expect that Ling Tianzhi would sit and ignore her. Additionally, this treacherous spiritual beast had accurately attacked her alone!
“Ling Tianzhi!” Lu Qingchuan cried out angrily.
“Miss Lu, watch out!” Ling Tianzhi gave a low shout, “I’m coming!”
When Lu Qingchuan heard him, she immediately said, “Help me deal with that monster with mane on its head! Hurry!”
“Alright!”
Like a gliding giant bird, Ling Tianzhi’s body flew from the side. The instant when he passed Lu Qingchuan by the shoulder, he moved the fingers from both hands at a flying speed and gushed out surges of sword attacks from his fingertips.
For a time, as if stars were falling from the sky, the weaving of the sword Qi had all went to greet Lu Qingchuan.
“You!” Lu Qingchuan had never thought that Ling Tianzhi would make a move against her.
“Ha ha ha, Miss Lu, excuse me!” With this laughter, the voice had changed immediately. As that Ling Tianzhi dropped to the ground, Qin Wushuang’s appearance immediately restored with an instant transformation.
“It’s you!” Lu Qingchuan dropped from the sky with despair. All her fatal Acupoints were locked by Qin Wushuang. Her sea of Dantian was locked by the sword moves. Even for someone as powerful as her, being at the Peak of the Common Mysterious Stage, she was at her wit’s end!
The four spiritual beasts also transformed into lights to enter Qin Wushuang’s sealed scroll, with a sway of their bodies. Qin Wushuang said with a smile, “It’s me, miss Lu. You, Ling Tianzhi, and Jiang Kui had formed a mutual understanding. Weren’t you guys going to deal with the two disciples of the Qin Clan? I am only striking first to seize the upper hand.”
Lu Qingchuan’s face had become red. “You are despicable, shameless!”
Qin Wushuang laughed casually. “It’s you who is too naive. There is the saying of how one cannot have too much deception in war. That being said, even if I am the real Ling Tianzhi, under that situation, he would also attack you. Regardless of who is to disqualify, would it not be getting rid of one opponent?”
Lu Qingchuan was speechless…
She had never thought that she would be disqualified this quickly. They had all just entered the ninth island!
