Chapter 32: Ziwei Tianhuo was subdued by Luo Qingyao, like a beautiful woman suddenly torn apart...
The white jade plate in Luo Qingyao's hand was hit by Nan Sining with all his strength, leaving a clear mark.
Although this magic weapon was not broken, this attack did relieve a lot of pressure, giving Ziwei Tianhuo some chance to breathe and escape.
Luo Qingyao saw that Nan Si Ning was trying to stop her, and her face turned pale with anger: "Nan Si Ning! What are you doing!"
After Nan Si Ning steadied himself, he said, "Can't you see that? You're so stupid! Of course I'm stopping you from contracting the Ziwei Heavenly Fire!"
The bootlickers were all shocked and criticized Nan Sining for not helping Luo Qingyao but helping Yihuo. Who would do that?
Nan Sining just treated them as the buzzing of flies and ignored them completely.
Luo Qingyao was also extremely angry: "Nan Si Ning, although we have a grudge, I thought that in the face of such an opportunity, you would distinguish the importance of things. I didn't expect that you would do something that harms others and does not benefit yourself for your own selfish motives!"
Nan Si Ning snorted coldly, "Luo Qingyao, when we were still in the sect, you wanted to kill me, didn't you? Our expenses at Cijian Peak were so tight, and people thought we were just sitting around collecting the sect's salary without doing anything. That was a rumor you spread, wasn't it? In the Luoshui Secret Realm, you tried to kill me and my senior sister again. In your mind, everyone at Cijian Peak is doomed to die, and you even wanted to use our deaths as a stepping stone!"
"You want us all to die, why should I help you? Every bit of your strength increase means our sect is one step closer to extinction. Am I such a despicable person? Why am I so eager to die at your hands?!"
Luo Qingyao's thoughts were revealed by Nan Si Ning, and her face turned pale and blue, looking very ugly.
When the bootlickers heard what Nan Si Ning said, they still yelled at him to stop talking nonsense.
But looking at the expressions of many people, it was obvious that they believed Nan Sining's words to some extent.
Only Hu Yan remained calm and said in a deep voice, "Focus!"
Hu Yan was angry at Nan Si Ning's behavior, but he was even more angry at Luo Qingyao. Luo Qingyao had plotted against him first, and now, facing a powerful enemy like Ziwei Tianhuo, she was careless and even had time to argue with Nan Si Ning. She was really useless!
Luo Qingyao got Hu Yan's reminder and quickly turned her attention back to the sky fire.
Now that Nan Si Ning has broken off relations with her, she has nothing to worry about!
Nan Si Ning must die, and everyone in Cijian Peak must die!
Luo Qingyao no longer paid attention to Nan Si Ning, but continued to use the sword and white jade plate in her hand to deal with the heavenly fire.
Nan Sining was not surprised. If Luo Qingyao didn't have any brains, she wouldn't be able to be the protagonist.
The Ziwei Heavenly Fire was indeed incredibly powerful, but its mind was like that of a child and it did not understand any rules of battle. In addition, many monks surrounded it and all kinds of attacks were directed at it, making it a little flustered.
Nan Sining shook his head slightly. If the Ziwei Tianhuo was smart, it should have taken the opportunity to escape when Luo Qingyao was distracted just now. A hard fight would be the most unwise.
Perhaps this is why it is so easy to subdue in the book.
It seems I have to do it myself.
Nan Sining picked up his sword again and rushed forward to help Ziwei Tianhuo share the pressure.
Nan Si Ning's swordsmanship is average, so his combat effectiveness is not strong. Among these male cultivators, some are hired sword cultivators, and their cultivation is at the foundation-building stage, so Nan Si Ning has no chance of defeating them.
But Nan Sining didn't want to defeat them, but to delay them and relieve the pressure on Ziwei Tianhuo.
Nan Sining's cultivation has reached the state of great perfection in Qi Refining. In addition, her "Five Elements of Heaven and Earth" can operate on its own, and the expanded Dantian can also obtain more spiritual power. Therefore, she is not good at swordsmanship, but she is difficult to beat and her endurance is really strong.
Those bootlickers hated her, but they didn't dare to kill her. Luo Qingyao was not afraid of offending Cijian Peak, but they were afraid.
Seeing that Nan Si Ning was really stumbling and causing a lot of trouble to others, Luo Qingyao was filled with anger. She could not wait any longer and wanted to kill Nan Si Ning now!
So she flew over to Nan Si Ning and said, "Since you want to ruin my good thing, don't blame me for being rude!"
Having said that, he went straight towards Nan Si Ning.
Nan Si Ning suddenly felt the pressure increase. Others did not dare to kill her, but Luo Qingyao used all her killing moves, each one aimed at killing Nan Si Ning.
Nan Si Ning said: "Stop talking nonsense!"
The first time Nan Sining faced off against Luo Qingyao, he felt that Luo Qingyao was indeed very strong. As a swordsman, she was extremely talented and practiced very hard. She was considered a leader among her peers.
It’s a pity that this person doesn’t follow the right path and insists on snatching everything from me. Otherwise, with her talent, there is no doubt that she will achieve something great.
However, Nan Sining did not say these words. Luo Qingyao's ideological education was the responsibility of her master, and there was no need for him to waste his energy on it.
Luo Qingyao attacked fiercely, and several of Nan Sining's magic weapons were broken into pieces.
Luo Qingyao said contemptuously: "With your little ability, you think you can beat me?"
Nan Si Ning smiled and said, "Whether I can defeat you or not is another matter, as long as I can hold you back, that's all! Anyway, the Ziwei Heavenly Fire will not be yours!"
"You——" Luo Qingyao was furious.
At this moment, Luo Qingyao also understood Nan Si Ning's plan: she just wanted to hold her back so that Ziwei Tianhuo would have a chance to escape. If Ziwei Tianhuo had not been a child, and had not been so angry that it was determined to fight to the death, it would have escaped long ago.
No! The longer it takes, the worse it will be for me! Luo Qingyao narrowed her eyes, her murderous intent thickening as she called out, "Brother Zhao! Brother Wang! Come and help me!"
Although Luo Qingyao could suppress Nan Si Ning, she couldn't kill her in a short time, so she simply called two people to help.
Two sword cultivators responded and quickly joined the encirclement and suppression of Nan Si Ning.
Nan Sining was already struggling to deal with Luo Qingyao alone, and now with the arrival of two more sword cultivators in the Foundation Establishment Stage, he was completely unable to resist and began to panic.
With a flash of sword light, Luo Qingyao's sword slashed directly towards Nan Si Ning. Nan Si Ning knew that he could not dodge, so he quickly took out a magic weapon and prepared to escape, but he heard a loud shout: "Luo Qingyao, you bitch! You are looking for death!"
With a "clang", Luo Qingyao's sword was knocked away. Hua Shengqing came angrily and slashed at several people without saying a word.
Hua Shengqing was furious, and his sword was sharp, with every move aimed at the vital points. The three men were immediately forced back several steps.
Zhou Lixing arrived a step late, and from his sweaty face, it was obvious that he was also frightened by the dangerous scene.
"Junior sister, are you okay?" Zhou Lixing asked in shock.
Nan Si Ning shook his head: "I'm fine, luckily you and Seventh Senior Sister arrived in time."
Zhou Lixing snorted coldly: "How dare you kill my junior sister? You must be tired of living!"
As he said that, he swung his big iron spoon and big iron pot and flew towards the people who were fighting with Hua Shengqing.
Nan Si Ning hurriedly shouted, "Brothers and sisters! The most important thing is to stop Luo Qingyao! Don't let her get the Ziwei Heavenly Fire!"
When Zhou Lixing and Hua Shengqing heard this, they were shocked and responded loudly, then immediately went to greet Luo Qingyao.
Whatever Junior Sister asks her to do, she definitely has her reasons! No need to ask why!
Luo Qingyao was so angry that she almost vomited blood. These two bastards came at the perfect time and almost hacked Nan Sining to death, but they saved him in the end!
Although the two men's cultivation was not very high, Hua Shengqing loved to fight with others and his swordsmanship was very good. Zhou Lixing not only danced with a big iron spoon and a big iron pot with great vigor, but also coordinated the two magic weapons very closely, leaving people with almost nowhere to escape and they could only bite the bullet and fight.
Furthermore, the two were still furious and needed to vent, so they were both exceptionally brave. They faced three opponents, and they were not at all at a disadvantage.
Luo Qingyao felt the pressure doubled. The people of Cijian Peak were really crazy. They didn't care about anything when they went crazy.
When Hua Shengqing and Zhou Lixing appeared, Hu Yan's face also turned dark. Luo Qingyao, that idiot!
The most important thing right now was to subdue the Ziwei Heavenly Fire! She was actually thinking about killing Nan Si Ning and even called two people to help! This put even more pressure on the remaining people!
If it weren't for the oath to heaven, he would have quit long ago!
"Luo Qingyao! If you don't come over, Ziwei Tianhuo will escape!" Hu Yan shouted with gritted teeth.
This is not only a threat, but also a reminder.
Luo Qingyao's heart trembled. She turned her head and looked over. She saw that the trapping formation that had been firmly holding the Ziwei Skyfire was actually shaking violently! If this continued, the formation would definitely not hold, and the Ziwei Skyfire would escape!
Now, Luo Qingyao didn't care about advancing or retreating with the other two people. She just dodged and used the hands of the other two people to avoid the joint attack of Hua Shengqing and Zhou Lixing.
Because of her dodge, there was a gap in the defense of the three people. Hua Shengqing took the opportunity to stab one of them in the shoulder with a sword, while Zhou Lixing smashed another person on the head with a pot, knocking him unconscious.
At this point, the anger in the hearts of the two brothers and sisters finally subsided a little.
"Third senior brother, your pot is really powerful!" Hua Shengqing said with shining eyes.
It feels so good to knock someone out with a "bang"!
Zhou Lixing finally revealed a smile: "This is what Junior Sister found for me. It's a bit heavy, so it can hit people with great force!"
On the other side, Luo Qingyao rejoined the trapping formation and strengthened it a little. Ziwei Tianhuo's struggle was suppressed a little, but the formation already had cracks and could not hold on for long.
Luo Qingyao was anxious and wanted to subdue the Ziwei Skyfire as soon as possible.
She hadn't intended to use such a sinister method. It was all Nan Sining's fault. She had completely ruined her plans!
Luo Qingyao was furious and said to the people around her, "I'm sorry, if you want to blame someone, blame Nan Si Ning!"
Before the other party could react, Luo Qingyao raised her hand, and the sword in her hand flashed with a cold light, directly cutting his throat!
Everyone was shocked to see the gentle and kind Junior Sister Luo suddenly draw her sword and attack her own people. Even Hu Yan was so shocked by this sudden change that he couldn't react.
Just as everyone's eyes widened, Luo Qingyao had already killed three people in a row, and then threw out a white jade plate to catch the blood of the three people!
After the white jade plate came into contact with blood, it quickly began to absorb the blood on its own. The entire plate quickly changed from clean and pure white to pink, red, and deep red...
Finally, someone reacted and cried out in frustration, "Junior Sister Luo! What are you doing!"
Luo Qingyao stared at the white jade plate that was greedily absorbing blood. Oh, maybe it should be called a blood plate. She was unaware of the blood splattered on her face. When someone asked her this, she suddenly smiled. It was completely different from her usual gentle and warm self. Instead, it was chilling, making people feel cold in this place with abundant fire spiritual energy.
"Of course, they're trying to subdue the strange fire. There's a forbidden spell on this jade plate that requires a blood sacrifice to activate. These three brothers have told me before that they're willing to serve me and do anything for me. So, they're willing to die for me, right?"
Hearing her words, everyone was shocked. Hu Yan couldn't help but be shocked: "Luo Qingyao, did you get this magic weapon from an evil cultivator?!"
Luo Qingyao snorted coldly: "Why does anything that uses blood have to be an evil cultivator's magic weapon?"
This statement shut up many people, because many magical instruments and spiritual treasures require blood when they recognize their master, but... but no righteous magical instrument requires the sacrifice of three human lives!
Nan Sining didn't feel anything at first, but when the white jade plate started to absorb blood, a strong sense of uneasiness surged in his heart.
She hurried towards Luo Qingyao, shouting, "Stop her! Stop that magic weapon from sucking blood!"
Before anyone else could move, Hua Shengqing was the first to pounce, the sword in his hand pointing directly at Luo Qingyao.
Zhou Lixing followed closely behind.
However, just when Hua Shengqing's sword was about to pierce Luo Qingyao, it was stopped by Hu Yan.
Hua Shengqing was shocked and angry: "Brother Hu, what do you mean by this?! Are you in cahoots with her? Are you colluding with the evil cultivators?!"
Hu Yan revealed a bitter expression: "Of course not! She and I are just partners! I must protect her!"
This is the content of the Heavenly Oath. One is to help Luo Qingyao obtain the strange fire she wants, and the other is to protect her life.
Hua Shengqing didn't quite believe it. Hu Yan stopped her, which made her angry, so she attacked Hu Yan directly.
Luo Qingyao saw Hua Shengqing and Hu Yan fighting and smiled happily. Let them fight. It would be best if one of them were killed, so that Yaowang City and Cijian Peak would become mortal enemies!
Zhou Lixing attacked Luo Qingyao directly, but was stopped by the magical weapon on her body. Zhou Lixing was secretly surprised. He and his junior sister had clearly robbed Luo Qingyao of all her wealth, but she still had such a protective treasure? What his junior sister said was indeed right. Luo Qingyao was a person with many tricks and should not be underestimated.
Just when Zhou Lixing was about to attack Luo Qingyao, the jade plate had already absorbed enough blood and turned dark red, exuding a strange and disgusting aura.
Luo Qingyao waved her hand and the jade plate flew towards her. Zhou Lixing immediately waved his pot to stop it, but the jade plate knocked Zhou Lixing's iron pot away and even dented it, and flew into Luo Qingyao's hands.
Seeing this, Luo Qingyao just smiled contemptuously, not even bothering to talk to Zhou Lixing, and directly flashed into the defensive formation.
Zhou Lixing was so angry that he stamped his feet and couldn't help but scold those male cultivators: "Why didn't you stop her!"
The male cultivators had still to recover from Luo Qingyao's drastic reversal. It was a bit like a beautiful woman suddenly tearing off her painted skin in front of them and turning into an evil ghost. Everyone felt that their cognition and emotions had been greatly impacted, and they were unable to recover for a long time.
Some people also said with a bitter face: "How can we stop her?"
Luo Qingyao is a sword cultivator and has many magical weapons on her. If you try to stop her, the three people lying on the ground will serve as a warning.
Zhou Lixing was so angry at their cowardly appearance that he felt dizzy.
At this time, Nan Si Ning suddenly said, "Do you think she will let you go after she gets the strange fire?"
"What...what do you mean?" someone asked in a trembling voice.
Luo Qingyao was in the defensive formation at this time, using the blood-colored jade plate to fight against the Ziwei Sky Fire.
After the jade plate absorbed the blood, it seemed as if it had released some evil seal and its strength skyrocketed. The Ziwei Sky Fire, which originally required everyone working together to suppress, could now be easily dealt with by Luo Qingyao alone.
No, or rather, the jade plate can suppress it.
As the Ziwei Heavenly Fire is at the top of the list of strange fires, its strength should not be so weak. That only means that the blood-colored jade plate can just suppress it.
Nan Si Ning's gaze remained fixed on Luo Qingyao, his tone calm and composed. "She suddenly murdered someone, sacrificing their lives and blood to activate the jade plate's power. It's obvious that this is the method of an evil cultivator. Wouldn't she be afraid of you telling others about this?"
"this……"
"We won't tell!"
"That's right! Junior Sister Luo will definitely not attack us! We've helped her so much!"
Nan Si Ning laughed sarcastically and pointed at the three bodies on the ground: "Didn't they help Luo Qingyao? Didn't they help enough?"
The three corpses on the ground make it impossible for the bootlickers to deceive themselves.
"So what should we do?"
"Yes, Junior Sister Nan, please show me the way!"
"Junior Sister Nan, you can't just stand by and watch someone die!"
…
Nan Sining felt a little disgusted by the speed at which these people changed their expressions. Perhaps only people like this would be attracted to Luo Qingyao?
Zhou Lixing also hated them and said directly: "Shut up, everyone!"
Nan Si Ning looked at his third senior brother with some surprise. He didn't expect that his third senior brother, who was such a good-tempered and honest man, would also lose his temper?
Zhou Lixing felt a little embarrassed when Nan Sining looked at him.
However, he also had to protect his junior sister and support her, so he didn't show it at all.
Nan Si Ning smiled and said, "What are you afraid of? When she comes out later, the first thing she will do is definitely to kill me. I will die before you, so how can I save you?"
When everyone heard this, their expressions suddenly became ugly, and they had forgotten about it.
Nan Sining can hardly protect himself right now!
When Zhou Lixing heard this, he immediately became nervous. Judging from Luo Qingyao's aggressive attitude just now, it seemed that she was determined to fight to the death with her junior sister.
So Zhou Lixing hurriedly said, "Junior Sister, let's run away before she comes out!"
Nan Si Ning curled his lips and said, "Escape? This secret realm is so big, where can I escape to? Besides, if I escape now, we will have to go back to the sect for the competition. Then, it will be even easier for Luo Qingyao to kill me in the sect. Not only will the sect master not punish her, he will also help cover up for her. If I die here, at least there will be outsiders to bear witness. If I die in the sect, it will be much easier for Luo Qingyao to escape punishment."
Hearing this, many people frowned. How could this be the way the Canglan Sect operated? Would the Sect Master actually protect and harm a fellow disciple?
Zhou Lixing asked worriedly, "Junior Sister, what you said makes sense. So what should we do?"
Nan Si Ning said: "Right now, we have no choice but to unite and see if we can help the Zi Wei Tian Huo escape. Without the Zi Wei Tian Huo, Luo Qing Yao is nothing to be feared."
This is indeed the truth, and many people nodded in agreement.
Luo Qingyao herself is just a swordsman who has reached the perfection of Qi training. In terms of her swordsmanship and cultivation, she is actually not that great. What everyone fears is the Ziwei Heavenly Fire. After all, that strange fire can not only burn a person to ashes, but also directly burn the soul.
At this time, many people also realized that if they were to help Ziwei Tianhuo escape from Luo Qingyao, then why did they go to such great lengths to help Luo Qingyao subdue Ziwei Tianhuo just now? If it weren't for their help, Ziwei Tianhuo would have escaped long ago.
Nan Sining was not surprised at all to see the look of regret on everyone's faces.
"Then you should take a rest and recover first."
After hearing Nan Sining's words, everyone sat down and began to recover their spiritual power.
After a while, Hu Yan and Hua Shengqing also came over, and it seemed like neither of them was able to win the fight.
As expected, Hua Shengqing said unconvincedly, "If I didn't have to save my strength to hit Luo Qingyao, I would have beaten you to your knees and begged for mercy today!"
Hu Yan didn't want to compete with Hua Shengqing, who was in the Qi Refining Stage. Although he was an alchemy cultivator, he was also good at fighting. He took into consideration that Hua Shengqing was from Cijian Peak. If he hurt her, he would also be punished, so he left her some leeway.
"Senior Brother Hu, do you want to join us in dealing with Luo Qingyao later?" Nan Sining asked straight to the point.
Hu Yan's expression was a little unnatural. If he had known Luo Qingyao was that kind of person...
Thinking of the word "had known earlier", Hu Yan felt even more upset. He didn't know how many times he had thought about the word "had known earlier".
"I'm sorry, I can't." Hu Yan said honestly.
Hearing that the only Jindan stage cultivator could not stand on their side, many lickspittles began to wail, wishing they could hug Hu Yan's legs and beg for mercy.
Hua Shengqing immediately scolded, "All of you, be quiet! Listen to Senior Brother Hu's explanation!"
A bunch of cowardly bastards who helped Luo Qingyao deal with their own junior sister before, and now they regret it? What were they doing before? Pah!
Hua Shengqing really couldn't stand them and despised them very much.
How could we be so spineless when we're all cultivators? How could we go further on the path to immortality?
After the group of people quieted down a bit, Hu Yan smiled bitterly and said, "I made a Heavenly Oath with her. I must help her obtain the strange fire and ensure her safe departure from the secret realm."
Everyone understood the power of the Heavenly Dao Oath, and some couldn't help but exclaim, "Second Brother, what kind of benefits did she give you to make you work so hard for her?!"
The people around that person hurriedly pulled him aside. Can others just ask about the Second Brother's affairs?
Nan Sining was also curious, but she knew that there were not many things that could impress an alchemist like Hu Yan, and it would definitely not be convenient for him to say it out loud.
It is wise not to ask any further questions.
Nan Si Ning then said, "I see. This is indeed putting Senior Brother Hu in a difficult position."
Hu Yan nodded slightly, feeling somewhat hopeless. In his fifty-year-old life, he had never encountered such a difficult obstacle, and this time he actually failed.
"In that case, we can't embarrass Senior Brother Hu. However, besides us, the people Luo Qingyao wants to deal with also include several of Senior Brother Hu's fellow disciples. For their sake, Senior Brother Hu, could you please not help Luo Qingyao deal with us?"
As soon as Nan Sining finished speaking, he heard the sound of the defensive formation breaking.
Luo Qingyao successfully obtained the Ziwei Heavenly Fire!
