San Tian Liang Jue
Chapter 729 Harem Episode (21)
Aside from the fact that Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Que were wholeheartedly loyal to Ji Fenglong and would follow her in life and death, their own temperaments would not allow Yin Loulan to be so arrogant.
Therefore, they attacked without hesitation...
The two women, with Nine Revolutions of Saint-Origin Limitless and Eight Revolutions of Saint-Origin Limitless respectively, were undoubtedly first-rate experts in the Saint-Origin World, and their attacks were naturally extraordinary.
Lin Que's fingers bloomed like lotus flowers, and with a sudden movement of her palm, she blasted out a yellow magpie-shaped phantom towards the front; while Su Xiaoxiao summoned a long spear, channeled power into it, and thrust forward, releasing a giant beast-shaped shadow.
On the surface, the momentum of these two moves seemed less grand than Huo Wei's "Blazing Fire Cloud-Chasing Sword," but in reality, this was the result of refining power into a unified whole to create superior techniques... Compared to those scattered sword energies, these were truly terrifying killing moves.
However... faced with such attacks, Yin Loulan simply responded with a sneer: "Heh... petty tricks..." As he spoke, he flipped his hand...
In the next second, the golden light surrounding him suddenly contracted, forming a dazzling beam of light with a radius of about one meter.
When the two surging streams of Saint-Origin Power touched this beam of light, they vanished like a clay ox entering the sea... disappearing in an instant.
"How is that possible!" Lin Que exclaimed in shock.
Su Xiaoxiao also said with an unbelievable expression: "What exactly did you do?"
"Didn't do anything..." Yin Loulan replied in a relaxed tone, and raised a finger to point at the sky, "I just let my magic treasure... reveal a portion of its 'true form'."
Hearing this, Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Que both changed their expressions. They both knew that the magic treasure Yin Loulan was talking about should be the "Yiyuan Golden Seal" (seal suppressing origin energy). But... this object was already a top-grade magic treasure in itself, if it was still hiding a so-called "true form," wouldn't that be an ultimate treasure?
"You guessed right." Before the two could speak, Yin Loulan perceived their doubts through observing their expressions and preemptively said, "This is an 'ultimate treasure'."
Now, Yin Loulan no longer needed to conceal his various abilities, he didn't mind showing his strength to the world.
"This thing is called... the Kongtong Seal!" Yin Loulan said at this point, looked up at the sky, and shouted.
Before the shout faded, the golden seal in the air burst out with colorful and dazzling precious light.
When the light dissipated, the "Yiyuan Golden Seal" had completely changed, becoming a golden-red seal: on the seal were nine dragons intertwined, the four sides of the seal base had the sacred visages of the Five Heavenly Emperors (Eastern Heavenly Emperor Taihao Fuxi, Southern Heavenly Emperor Yan Emperor Shennong, Western Heavenly Emperor Shaohao Xuanxiao, Northern Heavenly Emperor Zhuanxu Gaoyang, Central Heavenly Emperor Huangdi Xuanyuan), and the bottom of the seal was also engraved with Great Dao Talismans—the two characters "Kongtong."
"With Kongtong in hand, I have the world!" Yin Loulan nodded and sneered, glaring at Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Que, "Hmph... with your cultivation, you can't shake the defense of the divine seal at all." He put his hands behind his back, posing as if he would take any beating, "I think... you should obediently surrender and wait to enter Lianxian Palace."
"Daydreaming!" How could Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Que give up the fight? They would rather die in battle than be captured by the other side to be used as tools for venting lust.
Two seconds later, the two women used their ultimate moves again, launching a fierce attack. However... just as Yin Loulan had said, such attacks could not break through the defensive field of the Kongtong Seal. As long as the beam of light from the divine seal still shrouded Yin Loulan, attacks below a certain level of power would be futile.
"Little sister, what are you still waiting for?" On the other side, Ji Xianzong spoke again, "Could it be that you are expecting... your two subordinates to defeat Brother Yin, and then join you to deal with me?" A charming smile bloomed on his face, "Hmph... then I can tell you clearly, even if I fight three of you alone, you will have no chance of winning." He paused for a moment, and then asked, "Or... are you hesitating whether to go up and help them?" He shook his head, "Then I, as your elder brother, must remind you..." His eyes changed slightly, and he continued, "Brother Yin's cultivation... is above mine."
"What..." Ji Fenglong was shocked again, "Impossible... after his battle with the Demonic Sword Master..."
"Demonic Sword Master?" Ji Xianzong interrupted her, and laughed loudly, "Ha! That was just a clown, he was just a link in the plan between me and Brother Yin... Back then, Brother Yin was too young and his edge was too sharp, which attracted a lot of trouble, and we felt that... this situation would be detrimental to future plans. So I proposed that he make an appointment to fight the Demonic Sword Master, and stage a good show of 'being ambushed and damaging his foundation'... Hehe... anyway, the Demonic Sword Master was destroyed in both body and spirit afterwards, and there was no evidence against him, so Brother Yin could say whatever he wanted."
"You... how long ago did you start planning these conspiracies..." At this time, Ji Fenglong could no longer speculate what kind of person her brother was... Ji Xianzong's depth of planning was truly beyond the reach of ordinary people.
"'Conspiracy'? Hehe... call it whatever you want..." Ji Xianzong replied with a smile, "If you want to ask when we started planning... it should be when we were twelve years old." He raised his eyebrows and looked at Yin Loulan's side, "Actually, since adulthood, the cultivation of me and Brother Yin has always been on par. It's just... I am from a famous family, so I don't have to worry about the problem of 'too much edge'; but Brother Yin... is the son of an ordinary villager, this kind of background made his path in the martial world a lot more bumpy." He stroked his hair and turned around, speaking slowly, "Hmph... everyone says I am a genius, but to me... I am just a little smarter and more hardworking than those fools in the world. In my eyes, the only one in this world who can be called a genius... is Yin Loulan." He patted his chest, "I have lived in an environment of carefree food and clothing since I was a child, I learned the Six Arts of a Gentleman, I practiced superior cultivation methods, and I took spirit pills and magic medicines..." He raised his hand and pointed at Yin Loulan, his tone showing a hint of excitement, "And Brother Yin? Since he was five years old, he had to work in the fields, never had a day when he ate his fill and went to sleep, and never had a day when he got up after sleeping enough. He didn't even know a single character before he was twelve years old, let alone cultivation."
Speaking of this, Ji Xianzong sighed lightly: "Fortunately... God has eyes, when we were twelve years old, we both fell off a cliff together due to a chance encounter, and met a master." A look of joy flashed in his eyes, "It was that adventure that allowed us to obtain the Heavenly Book and the Kongtong Seal. It was also from that time that we agreed... in the future, we would rule the world together and change this world that is unequal from birth."
Boom—
Just as they were talking, the battle on Yin Loulan's side had ended.
At this moment, the widest and flattest avenue in the entire Harem City... had been blasted into a giant palm-shaped pit by Yin Loulan's palm.
The forty guards who were originally forming a formation in front of the carriage... had all died. This group of handsome men with an average cultivation of the Third Revolution of Saint-Origin Limitless could not withstand a single move in front of Yin Loulan.
In the end, on the rubble and debris... only Su Xiaoxiao and Lin Que, whose Saint-Origin was severely damaged and who were seriously injured, remained; and they could only rely on each other... to barely stand.
"Look, the expected result. You are destined to lose today, this is what I calculated as early as twenty... no, two hundred years ago." Ji Xianzong said, "By the way, the scene that happened here, and some of the 'sounds' (of course, Ji Xianzong selectively shielded some content, such as his and Yin Loulan's past), have been spread out by me using the Floating Shadow Sound Transmission Technique; and... my cultivation method can penetrate barriers and space." He spread his arms, "That is to say... at this moment, the entire Harem City, including all your wives in the Lianxian Palace... are watching here." He suddenly laughed, "Hehe... since they love you so much... seeing you so pitiful... I think, even if you run away, they will forgive you, right..."
"I'll fight you!" Ji Fenglong finally couldn't bear it anymore, the emotions in her heart burst out in an instant like Mount Tai collapsing.
She roared angrily, summoned her strongest magic treasure—the Heavenly Book Bamboo Slips, and channeled the strongest power that a Yuan Saint could exert, betting everything on one strike.
Ji Fenglong knew how terrifying the man in front of her was, so she understood... she had, and only had, this one chance to win.
Unfortunately...
"Little sister, you really don't learn your lesson." Ji Xianzong's gentle and relaxed voice rang out again, "Have you forgotten who gave you this Heavenly Book?" As the second half of his sentence came out, the Heavenly Book Bamboo Slips had already appeared in Ji Xianzong's hands.
Ji Fenglong's attack had not yet been launched, but had already vanished like a bubble... only her frozen figure remained, standing stiffly on the carriage, trembling...
"Give up, you can't beat me." Ji Xianzong said in a cold tone, "We are not the same kind of people... I pursue imperial dominance, but you only think about romance. When I gave you the Heavenly Book, I knew... even if you held this treasure, you would only use it to do things you like, and you would never think about maximizing its effectiveness." He flicked his sleeve, "You haven't discovered the 'Master Recognition Rune' I hid in the Heavenly Book for so many years, which is the best evidence. How could someone like you... win against me?"
"Even without the Heavenly Book..." Ji Fenglong gritted her teeth and muttered, "I will also..."
Chih—
A sharp sound interrupted her words, it was the sound of Ji Xianzong's flying sword cutting through the air.
When Ji Fenglong came back to her senses, the flying sword had already been inserted into her side three inches from her navel, just enough to seal her death gate.
"If you weren't my own sister, you would be dead now." Ji Xianzong said in a deep voice, "While I haven't changed my mind, leave quickly..." He looked into the distance and exhaled, "Go back to the Ji family, that... will always be your haven."
"I won't leave!" Ji Fenglong's voice was already tearful, "Unless you release..."
"How many times do I have to say it before you understand?" Ji Xianzong didn't even let her finish, "I won't change my plans because of your few words, and I won't fulfill any of your requests because of family affection or sympathy." He snorted coldly, "Do you think that if you stay here and force me with your life, I will listen to you? Hmph... we are no longer children, little sister, your trick doesn't work anymore." He raised the Heavenly Book Bamboo Slips and continued, "If you don't leave, then I will put you into the Heavenly Book to prevent you from causing trouble."
Before he finished speaking, he had already activated the Heavenly Book, preparing to attack.
However... what happened next was beyond Ji Xianzong's expectations.
Suddenly, four rays of light burst out from the Heavenly Book... in the blink of an eye, they turned into four figures, one man and three women, standing around Ji Fenglong.
"Hmm?" Ji Xianzong's expression changed slightly, "You still imprisoned people in the Heavenly Book?"
"Not 'imprisoned'~ but 'invited'~" Feng Bujue swayed to Ji Xianzong's front with his signature gait, correcting with a smile, "Saying 'imprisoned' is too harsh, as if I was captured."
"Hmph..." Ji Xianzong sneered, looking at Brother Jue with disdain, "Who are you?"
"Easy to say." Feng Bujue put his hands behind his back and said with his head held high and proudly, "This Great Lord is the Master of the Broken Sword Teahouse, Feng Bujue."
"This... Great Lord?" Ji Xianzong was dumbfounded when he heard this, his gaze swept over Brother Jue, "A mortal who doesn't even have internal strength, but his tone is not small..." He sneered, "Heh... do you know who I am?"
"I know." Feng Bujue replied, while raising his right hand, waving his index finger and pointing at Ji Xianzong's face, "You are a homosexual." Saying that, he turned his upper body and pointed at Yin Loulan in the distance, "He is your good buddy."
After saying that, he paused for two seconds, turned his head to look at Ji Xianzong, and continued: "I saw and heard what happened just now in the Heavenly Book world." He spread his hands, "To be honest, I agree with your sexual orientation and 90% of your actions..." He shook his head, "However... there is a part of your plan that makes me and my companions feel disgusted. Although I am not a feminist, I cannot allow you two to force good women into prostitution." He shrugged, "Of course... the most important point is that just a minute ago, I received a very clear system prompt."
He was telling the truth. The moment he came out of the Heavenly Book, the system voice of [Main Mission Triggered] sounded, and the main mission in the mission bar was—[Stop Yin Loulan and Ji Xianzong's plan].
Moreover, a hidden mission was also triggered at the same time: [Kill Yin Loulan and Ji Xianzong].
"In short..." Feng Bujue showed a cheap smile, looking at Ji Xianzong and said, "You are doomed today."
"Ha... hahahaha..." Ji Xianzong laughed loudly, stopping after laughing for nearly ten seconds, "Heh... this... Master Feng..." He looked at Brother Jue, and muttered with a mocking tone, "There should be a limit to overestimating yourself, do you even understand what you are talking about with your crazy words?"
"What? You don't seem to believe it?" Feng Bujue responded, "Well... maybe your comprehension ability is relatively poor, don't worry, I won't discriminate against your IQ." He raised his right hand, extended three fingers, and said, "Then I'll explain it to you..." He paused for half a second, and smiled, "...to kill you, only three steps are needed."
