There are only these three people left, and Jiang Deng would not be surprised no matter which one he meets.
However, Jiang Deng hoped that she would meet Bai Sitang, because if she could get rid of him as soon as possible and get the sword tassel, it would also be considered as putting her mind at ease.
After the breathing time was over, the results of the fourth round of battle were announced—
Jiang Deng of Taichu Sword Sect battles against Eagle Old of Xuantian Demon Realm.
"It's a shady deal! It's absolutely a shady deal!"
Jiang Deng said indignantly.
Otherwise, why wouldn't she be matched with whoever she wants to meet?
She seriously doubted the fairness of the sword disk matching mechanism!
"Sister, don't be unhappy. It's your turn to play in the game. Come on, pluck all the feathers of that eagle monster!" Jiang Zhiling encouraged with a clenched fist.
Shi Zihang also said, "Sect Master Jiang, you are the only one from our Taichu Sword Sect who has made it to the semi-finals. You must win, otherwise our Taichu Sword Sect will be ridiculed by the sword cultivators of the Ten Realms!"
Xia Chenqing smiled and said, "Master Jiang, don't pay attention to what Junior Brother Shi said. If the Taichu Sword Sect's performance is really not good, it's all my fault. You just need to do your best."
Baili Chengfeng also cast an expectant look at Jiang Deng, "Jiang Deng, I believe in you."
"That's right! I believe in myself too."
Jiang Deng stepped onto the center platform with full confidence.
Old Eagle was a bit of a loner. He went straight onto the stage without communicating with the other demon cultivators, so he arrived earlier than Jiang Deng.
At this moment, seeing Jiang Deng's unusually relaxed expression, Old Eagle immediately said with an unhappy look on his face: "You are about to die, yet you are so happy. Humans are really foolish."
Jiang Deng blinked, "Huh? Are you talking about yourself?"
Old Eagle's breathing stagnated, and he said frantically, "Of course I'm talking about you!"
Jiang Deng glanced at Old Ying, who looked as old as a man in his sixties or seventies, then looked at his youthful self. He immediately questioned, "Are you sure? You're old and outdated, and I'm still a young, fresh-faced girl. It's obvious that you're the one who should die early."
"Hmph," Old Eagle snorted coldly, "The lifespans of us demon cultivators are inherently longer than humans. Don't be fooled by my appearance now that I've transformed into a human. In fact, I only lived for three hundred years in my previous beast form, and only a handful of thirty years in human form. So, I'm actually the equivalent of thirty years old among you humans."
Jiang Deng: “…”
Listening to Old Eagle's nonsense, Jiang Deng's expression was slightly distorted.
Is this okay?
Old Eagle is so old that his teeth are almost falling apart. How can he still come to participate in the sword-fighting competition?
Having lived so many years longer than them, she was able to come to participate in the sword-fighting conference. It felt very unfair to them, the human monks!
It can't be that just because the demon cultivator's bone age after transforming into a human form is less than 30 years old, it can be counted as 30 years old as a human, right?
“What a pity…”
Old Eagle closed his eyes and felt his current level of cultivation. His cultivation, which was originally at the peak of the Nascent Soul Realm, was suppressed to the same early stage of the Nascent Soul Realm as Jiang Deng.
"If it weren't for this sword disc suppressing my cultivation, human, you would have died miserably!"
Old Eagle said with a bad look on his face.
Jiang Deng relaxed his neck and couldn't help laughing, "Old man, are you blind and your vision is not working well?"
In her previous match with Song Yuanze, she showed considerable strength. If her Dharma body was included, she had already surpassed the Spirit Transformation Realm. Why was Old Eagle still so arrogant?
"My original form is an eagle. Even from thousands of miles up in the sky, I can spot rabbits on the ground. Naturally, my eyesight is impeccable!"
Old Eagle said this with a serious face, and then his hands turned into two sharp daggers. He took a step forward, and the two sharp daggers immediately stabbed towards Jiang Deng!
"Human, die!"
Old Eagle's movements were indeed very fast, leaving behind a series of afterimages on the center stage.
With a thought, the heavy light sword appeared in his hand.
After being tempered by the "Eight Gates Kung Fu", Jiang Deng's physical abilities have been significantly improved, and his eyes can easily see through Eagle Old's movements.
Bang!
Jiang Deng gripped the heavy sword tightly and blocked it to the right of his waist, successfully preventing the attack from Old Eagle.
Seeing that his first attack missed, Old Eagle became faster and his attacks became more sophisticated.
Although Jiang Deng was able to defend herself every time, Old Eagle's attacks came too fast and he showed no sign of stopping. She could not find any opportunity to use sword moves for the time being and could only passively fight Old Eagle in close combat.
For a moment, the buzzing sound of swords colliding continued for a long time.
Because Jiang Deng is not only a sword cultivator, but also a physical cultivator, her speed, strength and reaction are not inferior to that of the demon cultivator Ying Lao, and the duel between the two seems to be evenly matched.
For a moment, neither the man nor the demon could hurt the other.
"It seems that this old slave has no choice but to use his ultimate move."
The old eagle took a few steps back, and his body made a "crackling" sound of bones colliding. Then his back muscles moved a few times, and a pair of large brown wings grew out!
Flutter flutter——
The old eagle flapped its wings and hovered in the air.
In addition to the body feathers similar to those of ordinary birds, the ten largest wing feathers on each of his wings are all in the shape of long swords, reflecting a cold light under the sunlight!
Jiang Deng: “…”
No way!
This will make a hole in people!
No wonder Ji Shi was injured so seriously in the last game.
"Human, you will definitely die this time!"
Old Eagle said with a firm tone.
Jiang Deng asked in confusion, "What deep hatred do you have against me that you must kill me?"
As early as in the sword-recalling area, as soon as she saw Old Eagle, the demon gave her a bad look and even didn't let her get close to Leng Baige.
Now you have to kill her?
She had never seen Old Eagle before, let alone plucked his feathers, so why did he hate her so much?
The old eagle looked down from above, his eagle eyes sharp as swords. "This time, this old servant came to the sword competition, not only to protect the young master, but also to kill the young master's only human friend on the orders of the Demon King. Since you have a good relationship with the young master, it means that this servant did not kill the wrong person."
"...No way? Why would your demon king want to kill me?"
Jiang Deng was very sure that the Sixth Disciple did not recognize her when they met last time in the Soul Locking Tower, so why did he send someone to kill her?
"Well, since you're going to die, I'll just let you be a ghost."
Old Eagle explained, "Because the Demon King believes that you have led the young master astray."
“…”
Hearing this, Jiang Deng's mouth twitched.
Does Leng Baige, that damn rabbit, need to be led astray by her?
It wasn't a good thing in the first place!
When they first met, he threatened her with Zhiling's life and death. Now, he is just a little more obedient in front of her simply because she beat him into submission.
How could this mean that she led Leng Baige astray?
It was obvious that Leng Baige had turned over a new leaf under her leadership and was now a demon again!
"Human, stop stalling for time and die!"
A cold glint flashed across Old Eagle's eyes.
He closed his wings and then suddenly opened them. The long swords formed by the twenty wing feathers immediately left his body and stabbed towards Jiang Deng all at once!
