Hearing his second brother's angry words, Lu Jianxing couldn't help but laugh and shook his head.
"You kid, you have changed since you went to the alien world with Master Pan last time. Not only do you hold your phone every day to watch movies and TV series, but you also keep saying things that I can't understand."
"... Let's be careful. After all, we brothers are working for His Majesty. Although His Majesty values friendship, we brothers cannot live on friendship alone. Friendship will eventually run out. Ability is what you and I can truly rely on!"
Hearing Lu Jianxing's old-fashioned sermon, Shen Lian straightened his face and nodded, "Don't worry, big brother. I know my limits."
Lu Jianxing nodded with satisfaction, then looked at Xiahou, whose body was charred black, in front of him, and raised his voice slightly.
"Second brother, what should we do with him?"
Shen Lian understood and raised his voice, "Put it here. Won't the bearded man from Lanruo Temple come here soon? They have been fighting for seven years and are both enemies and friends. He shouldn't kill him."
"Second brother, what you said makes sense."
Lu Jianxing nodded, stood up, and turned around and left with Shen Lian.
As the two people's breath gradually faded away, a slight noise suddenly came from the trees beside the pond.
The next second, an old face emerged on the strangely twisted tree trunk. The eyeballs that looked like carved wooden beads looked in the direction where Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian left in doubt, and then were quickly attracted by Xiahou on the ground.
After all, Xiahou is a peerless swordsman who was able to fight with Yan Chixia for seven years. His energy and blood are far more vigorous than that of ordinary people.
In the eyes of the tree demon, Xiahou's body was like a human-shaped cake with candles lit in the dark night. It was not only bright and dazzling, but also exuded an extremely sweet and delicious smell of blood.
Sucking his blood and energy is better than sucking it from a hundred people!
A look of joy appeared on the tree demon's face, and he immediately controlled the roots to break through the soil and quickly spread towards the unconscious Xiahou.
Just as the hideous tree root that looked like a ghost hand was about to touch Xiahou, a whistling sound suddenly came from the forest ahead.
Golden light broke through the air, and an embroidered spring sword covered with golden light tore through the darkness, instantly nailing the ghost-hand-like roots to the ground.
The roots were cut off by the knife light, and the tree demon was suddenly shocked and looked up quickly.
Lu Jianxing and Shen Lian, who had left, appeared again.
The former was diffused with blue light, while the latter was covered with golden light. They looked at the old face on the tree trunk with a sneer.
Lu Jianxing shouted, "You daring monster, how dare you commit a crime in broad daylight? Why don't you surrender immediately and apologize to me!"
……broad daylight?
The tree demon grandma silently looked at the dark clouded sky and didn't know how to answer for a moment.
"It seems that you are planning to fight to the bitter end..."
Lu Jianxing slowly drew out the goose-feather knife from his waist, his eyes were cold and fierce.
The next second, Lu Jianxing leaped up, cracked the ground, and turned into a shadow as he rushed towards the tree monster.
Hey, I haven't answered yet!
The tree demon grandma widened her eyes, and then suddenly a fierce look appeared on her face. She opened her lips full of wood grain and let out a howl that sounded half male and half female.
The howling sounded like a devil's sound filling Lu Jianxing's ears, making him upset and unable to concentrate.
But this interference only lasted for less than half a second and quickly disappeared as Lu Jianxing's skin color changed.
“Puff——”
The next moment, Lu Jianxing had crossed a distance of dozens of meters and came to the ancient tree with an old face. The goose feather knife in his hand pierced directly into the forehead of the tree monster, splashing dark green sticky blood.
The tree demon howled in pain and waved its branches and roots wildly, stirring up a fierce wind.
A fierce wind blew, bringing with it the sound of branches breaking through the air. Lu Jianxing immediately gripped the hilt of his knife and retreated.
During the retreat, his brocade clothes were torn by branches as hard as gold and iron, revealing his brass-colored skin with a metallic luster.
Seeing this scene, the tree demon grandma couldn't help but be shocked.
"The Indestructible Golden Light Divine Art?!"
"Just a demon, but you have some knowledge..."
Lu Jianxing had a cold expression on his face. He swung the Yanling knife in his hand with force, leaving a dark green line of blood on the ground.
As the eldest of three brothers, Lu Jianxing's main skills are the Taoist "Tian Gang Qi" and the Buddhist "Vajra Indestructible Divine Art".
He practices both Buddhism and Taoism, and both of them are extremely strong and masculine skills. He can be said to be the best horizontal training in Daxia, and is most suitable for dealing with evil spirits!
At the same time, Shen Lian also walked slowly from behind to Xiahou's side, pulled out the Embroidered Spring Knife on the ground, and then blue and white arcs of electricity burst out from his body, flowing along his arms and lingering around the blade of the Embroidered Spring Knife.
“Crackle!”
The electric arc crackled, tearing through the darkness and illuminating the two cold faces of Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing.
The tree demon granny showed fear on her face. This idea was difficult to handle. It would be difficult to defeat them in a short time. Maybe they would even lure the stinky Taoist priest from Lanruo Temple over...
After a little thought, the tree demon made up her mind and opened her mouth again to let out a half-male, half-female scream.
The ground trembled with the shrieking sound, and countless thick roots suddenly broke out of the ground, like countless spears made of gold and iron, shooting towards Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing.
"How brave!"
A cold light flashed in Shen Lian's eyes, and his whole body glowed with amber-like golden light. The Embroidered Spring Knife in his hand was surrounded by blue and white arcs of electricity, and he suddenly slashed at the attacking tree roots.
The same was true for Lu Jianxing next to him. The two brothers had been working together for a long time and had a tacit understanding.
As the sword danced, it was like a large net that was impenetrable and water could not penetrate, cutting off all the attacking tree roots.
“Puff——”
The Embroidered Spring Knife in Shen Lian's hand drew a semicircular arc, cutting off dozens of tree roots in front of him that were as thick as a child's arm.
The blue-white electric arc quickly spread along the tree roots, instantly tearing the entire root apart and igniting a raging fire.
But no matter how many tree roots they cut off, more and thicker roots would break out of the ground and attack the two from tricky and vicious angles.
Shen Lian was annoyed by the tree roots. Finally, after cutting off a root that emerged from under his feet, he suddenly raised his palm and slapped the ground.
"Five Thunders Method - Palm Thunder!"
In an instant, blue and white arcs of electricity burst out continuously, tearing the earth into spider-web-like cracks.
Countless blue and white arcs flashed in the cracks, emitting burnt black smoke.
The tree demon roared in pain, and its huge crown danced wildly.
The next second, the ground was blown away and a huge meat vine flipped out of the ground.
Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing were slightly surprised, and immediately jumped up and retreated to the side.
Countless tree roots followed closely behind, like arrows with an automatic tracking system, shooting and spreading after the two people.
Lu Jianxing shouted loudly, and a blue light appeared on his bronze skin, and penetrated his body as he swung the knife.
"Tian Gang Qi!"
The blue Qi light turned into a streak of light and instantly rushed towards the tree roots, blasting large areas of the roots into pieces.
Smoke and wood chips fell down, obscuring the two people's vision.
The next second, thick fleshy vines emerged from it and rolled towards the bodies of Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing.
The surface of the vine was blood red, with black gas coming out from the inside, and green sticky liquid secreted from its uneven surface.
Shen Lian felt nauseous at what he saw, and blue and white arcs of electricity immediately swelled all over his body, trying to chop it into ashes.
"Bold monster!"
Suddenly, an angry shout came from the woods next to us.
Immediately afterwards, seven golden lights broke through the air and formed a seven-star formation, piercing through the air and nailing on the meat vines.
"BOOM! BOOM! BOOM!"
Seven explosions sounded at the same time, and the meat vines were blown into pieces, splashing large amounts of disgusting and smelly liquid.
...Is it Yan Chixia?
Shen Lian frowned slightly, and the blue-white electric arcs on his body faded away.
The two landed lightly. Lu Jianxing winked at Shen Lian, then tightly grasped the steel knife and shouted, "Master Yan, you've come just in time. Help us brothers take down this monster!"
Yan Chixia strode out of the forest. He first glanced in surprise at the brothers Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing, who were shining with golden light all over their bodies. Then he bit his finger, drew a blood talisman on his palm, and shouted loudly.
"The sky and the earth are boundless, the universe borrows the law!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yan Chixia's magic power surged.
He took off the sword case on his back, raised his palm and clapped it, and the sword case opened and closed, revealing the hilt of the magic sword inlaid with gold and jade.
"The heavenly net, the earthly Yama!"
"The magic sword is unsheathed, slaying demons and monsters!"
With a loud shout from Yan Chixia, the magic sword hidden in the sword box was immediately unsheathed, shining brightly in the air.
The magic sword turned into thousands of sword lights, which connected into pieces in the air, condensing into a majestic, magnificent and righteous sword force.
Yan Chixia's eyes widened with anger, and he pointed his fingers like a sword, pointing fiercely at the ancient tree in the distance that had an old face emerging from it.
"Taiyi Tianzun, hurry up and obey the command!"
As soon as the words fell, thousands of sword lights cut through the sky and madly bombarded the center of the tree trunk with the force of thunder.
Explosions continued to sound, the air was buzzing, and the sound of swords was endless.
All the tree roots that tried to block the sword light were shattered like a mantis trying to stop a chariot.
Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing's pupils shrank slightly, and they couldn't help but look at each other, as if they were shocked by the true strength displayed by Yan Chixia.
With the continuous bombardment of the sword light, the ancient tree with an old face finally couldn't hold on and let out a scream full of pain.
The next second, the sword flashed like a sharp sword, instantly breaking through the obstruction of the tree roots and completely crushing the ancient tree with a crown like a bush.
The sword light continued to hit the ground, making a tinkling sound, and then it shot in all directions as if it was bounced off the ground, instantly crushing all the other trees within a hundred meters into powder.
The air was filled with smoke and sawdust.
Yan Chixia retracted his sword, and thousands of sword lights gathered together and returned to the sword box.
Shen Lian and Lu Jianxing were astonished by her beauty and immediately stepped forward to bow.
"Master Yan has great magical powers and unparalleled skills. Shen/Lu admires him!"
"...You are not bad either!" Yan Chixia put away his sword case, glanced at the golden light on Shen Lian's body and chuckled, "Brother Shen, this golden light on you doesn't look like an ordinary martial art, it should be the Golden Light Curse of Longhu Mountain!"
"Brother Yan has a keen eye!"
Shen Lian showed admiration on his face and was about to continue praising Yan Chixia when the other party stopped him with his hand.
"Brother Shen, Brother Lu, don't rush to compliment each other."
"This tree demon is not dead yet!"
