"The young city lord of Lingwu City?"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wang paused slightly, a look of confusion on his face.

Clearly, they were not familiar with Lingwu City.

Upon seeing this, a strange light flashed in the young man's eyes.

He originally thought that with Jiang Wang's qualifications and cultivation, he must have heard of Lingwu City.

"What brings you to Azure Dragon Valley?"

After a moment of silence, the young man spoke again.

Azure Dragon Valley is a forbidden area, and even he dared not trespass on it, so he was very curious about Jiang Wang's origins.

"To be honest, I came to Azure Dragon Valley in search of treasures."

Jiang Wang hesitated for a moment before telling the truth.

"I see."

Upon hearing this, the young man suddenly realized what was happening, then shook his head and said, "I advise you to give up."

"My goal in coming to Azure Dragon Valley is to find a century-old snow lotus. I hope you can lend me a hand."

Hearing this, Jiang Wang breathed a sigh of relief.

Originally, he was worried that the other party coveted the secrets of Azure Dragon Valley and therefore set a trap to harm him.

Now that he heard it, he was completely relieved.

"The century-old snow lotus will also be of great use to me."

"If you tell me where the century-old snow lotus is, I will spare your life."

The young man said proudly.

"good!"

Jiang Wang agreed without hesitation.

The century-old snow lotus is rare and valuable, and it is even effective for peak-level experts.

Therefore, he had no doubt about what the other person said and directly stated the area where the century-old snow lotus was located.

"Walk!"

After listening, the young man flashed and transformed into a streak of light, shooting out.

In the blink of an eye, they caught up and intercepted Jiang Wang.

"Hmph! You may be strong, but you won't be able to stop me."

Upon seeing this, Jiang Wang's expression changed slightly. He let out a low shout, stomped his foot on the ground, and leaped into the air.

Splash!

At the same time, a wisp of blood flame rose up, transforming into a blood python that coiled around the youth.

"A mere trick, yet you dare to show it off?"

Seeing this, the young man remained expressionless and flicked out a few fine needles with his fingers.

*Sizzle!*

The fine needle pierced through the blood python as if it were in an empty field, and attacked Jiang Wang.

"What!"

Sensing the impending crisis, Jiang Wang's expression changed drastically.

He never expected that there was a formidable enemy hidden among them.

"Let's give it our all!"

A cold glint flashed in Jiang Wang's eyes as he unleashed his full power, channeling his bloodline energy and employing a secret technique to launch an attack.

This move was incredibly powerful; it was clearly an innate martial art.

Puff! Puff! Puff!

Three blood needles were knocked back, while the remaining two pierced Jiang Wang's throat and chest.

Sizzle!

A burst of blood blossoms erupted as the Blood Fiend Blade was cleaved in two and fell to the ground.

"Cough cough... You actually managed to kill me."

Jiang Wang struggled to stand up, his face extremely dejected.

He never imagined that he would perish on the spot in just one encounter.

"You shouldn't have followed me."

The young man shook his head and sighed.

“You are the young city lord of Lingwu City, how dare I, Jiang Wang, offend you?”

Jiang Wang chuckled bitterly and murmured, "I thought that with this magical artifact, I could take over Lingwu City, but in the end, I failed at the last minute."

With the Blood Raven King slain and the Bloodline Pill destroyed, he was at his last gasp.

Not even a Grandmaster of the Innate Realm, he couldn't withstand the ferocity of the Blood Fiend Blade.

"You deserve to die."

"However, before that, I have a question I'd like to clarify."

Do you know Qin Muye?

The young man stared at Jiang Wang and asked.

Buzz!

Jiang Wang's expression changed drastically, as if he had thought of something. His pupils shrank, and his face was filled with horror and fear.

"you……"

Jiang Wang was about to refuse, but when he met the young man's cold gaze, he was so frightened that he trembled all over.

"I...I don't know who Qin Muye is."

Jiang Wang lowered his head and spoke tremblingly.

At this moment, under the pressure from the young man, he dared not harbor any illusions.

"Just as I expected."

After hearing this, the young man's eyes dimmed.

Qin Muye had saved him and taught him martial arts, transforming him completely.

He will always remember this kindness.

But Qin Muyi was too strange and mysterious; he didn't even know the other party's real name.

Today, he happened to see some martial artists lingering at the mountain gate, so he immediately followed them.

But an unexpected thing happened.

"You are not Jiang Wang."

Who exactly are you?

Jiang Wang's expression changed drastically, and he couldn't help but roar.

"Yes, you recognize me?"

The young man narrowed his eyes, slowly drew the long sword from his waist, and a playful smile appeared on his lips.

Boom!

Jiang Wang's face turned ashen, his heart pounding wildly, as if he had encountered a ghost.

"Were you sent by that person?"

Jiang Wang stared wide-eyed and asked in a hoarse voice.

"That person?"

The young man raised an eyebrow, showing surprise.

"I……"

Upon hearing this, Jiang Wang took several deep breaths to suppress his panic and said in a deep voice, "That's right, it was that person who sent me. I know his plan."

"Oh? Who is that person?"

The young man became interested.

"Just kill me!"

Jiang Wang remained silent, preferring death to speaking.

"In that case, I'll send you on your way."

The young man chuckled, his figure flashed, and his speed increased, crushing the surrounding trees and bushes.

Thump thump thump~

The next moment, the two afterimages collided.

Jiang Wang's physical body was incredibly strong, but he was still forced to retreat steadily in the face of the youth's powerful attacks and could not hold on.

Before long, he was covered in wounds, his skin and flesh torn apart.

"No! I absolutely cannot sit idly by and wait to die."

Jiang Wang gritted his teeth, his eyes gleaming.

call out!

The next second, a piercing sword cry rang out.

The young man, wielding a long sword, darted out like a snake.

Swish! Swish! Swish!

The sword moved like a shooting star, swift and ruthless, sealing Jiang Wang's throat.

clang!

In a flash, Jiang Wang reached out and took out the Blood-Patterned Dagger, desperately trying to defend against the young man's attacks.

Click!

The blood-patterned dagger could not withstand the terrifying power and split in two, shattering into pieces.

"No!"

Jiang Wang was filled with fear and terror, and let out a hysterical scream.

call out!

The young man's sword tip slashed diagonally, piercing Jiang Wang's neck, and blood gushed out.

"As expected of a body-refining martial artist, the power of your bloodline is indeed formidable; it almost wore down my sword."

The young man sheathed his sword and shook his head.

Although the Blood Fiend Blade is extraordinary, its internal formation is incomplete, so it can only unleash the power of the first level of the Innate Realm.

"Whatever your purpose, you must pay the price."

The young man's eyes were cold as he spoke in a chilling voice.

"Who...are you?"

Jiang Wang clutched his neck, his eyes filled with deep regret.

Knowing how capable the other party was, even if he had a hundred more lives, he wouldn't have dared to follow them.

Unfortunately, it was all too late.

"I am ordered to capture the traitor. Please cooperate."

The young man said expressionlessly.

Jiang Wang was overjoyed upon hearing this.

"I'm willing to be an inside man."

Jiang Wang said excitedly.

That way, he wouldn't have to die.

Whoosh!

The young man flicked his hand, and Jiang Wang's clothes ripped open, revealing an ancient-looking token.

"Um?"

Upon seeing the token, Jiang Wang's face froze, and his heart sank into an ice cave.

"This is the token of the Blood Fiend Blade."

How did you come to own it?

The young man looked surprised as he looked at the token.
