Chapter 78: One Sword

Gao Xian is not a cunning person, he is able to "remain calm in the face of major events".

The main reason why he could be so calm was due to Sister Lan’s management of the bureau.

With the help of the Great Oupu magic, he can use reason to restrain his body and mind. Negative emotions such as tension, uneasiness, and panic are all well controlled.

On the other hand, he made rapid progress in magic, and overthrowing the Iron Scaled Demonic Tiger further boosted his confidence.

In every aspect, he is indeed completely different from what he was a few months ago.

“Dang, dang, dang…”

The deep sound of the bronze bell telling time entered the room, waking up Gao Xian who was sitting in meditation.

This is the central area of ​​Pegasus, and the sound of the bell can be heard very clearly.

According to the popular saying in Pegasus, the sound of the bell not only tells time, but also has the effect of calming the mind and dispelling evil spirits.

It is obviously not reliable to dispel evil spirits, because the evil spirit that Lao Wang turned into has been causing trouble in Pegasus for a long time.

The function of calming one's mind seems to be real. Although the sound of the bell is deep, it has a melodious feeling.

Every time Gao Xian heard the bell, he would feel peaceful and calm. Even if he was asleep, he would not be awakened by the bell.

Three consecutive bell rings indicated that it was now the third watch.

Gao Xian got out of bed and performed a cleansing technique on himself first, not only for personal hygiene, but also to help himself wake up faster.

I sorted out the magic talismans and elixirs to be used. I checked the Qingmu Armor, Qingyun Robe, Water and Fire Lotus Silk Boots, Stone-cutting Sword, and Qinglian Crown.

This battle is extremely dangerous, so you must bring along all the magical weapons, talismans, and elixirs you can use.

After checking twice, everything was fine. Gao Xian then left the bedroom. Zhu Qiniang was already waiting for him in the living room.

"Have you checked all the magic weapons and talismans?" Gao Xian asked.

Zhu Qinnan nodded. She had rich combat experience and would naturally not make any mistakes in this regard.

Gao Xian hesitated and asked, "Do you want to have a midnight snack first?"

He further explained: "Only when you are full can you have the energy to fight."

Zhu Qiniang glanced at Gao Xian and said calmly, "Are you serious?"

"Haha, I was just worried that you'd be nervous, so I tried to liven up the atmosphere..."

Gao Xian laughed dryly. His joke was obviously not very funny. There was no smile on Zhu Qinnan's face.

Opening the door in the middle of the night was very loud, which would alarm Daniu and possibly outsiders. The two used the wind control technique to climb over the wall, thus avoiding this problem.

On the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, at three o'clock in the morning, the moon in the sky was big and bright.

Gao Xian and Zhu Qinniang both felt that the moon was a bit annoying. To them, the more chaotic the battlefield was, the better.

In a clearly visible environment, it is easier for practitioners to make calm judgments.

"Why don't we wait until five o'clock in the morning?" Gao Xian suggested.

The winter nights in Pegasus are very long. The moon sets at five o'clock in the morning, when the sky is the darkest.

"Not good, some cultivators will get up at five o'clock to breathe."

Zhu Qiniang shook her head: "It's just four o'clock. Even if there's a moon, it won't matter. The key is you."

"good."

Gao Xian didn't dwell on this. With his proficiency in Shadowless Robe, it wouldn't matter whether there was moonlight or not.

Pegasus Village was not big, and Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang arrived there quickly.

It was still early, so neither of them was in a hurry to take action.

Gao Xian used his shadowless clothes and walked around the large yard to make sure there was no one on guard nearby.

He didn't see anyone on duty last night, so he decided to check again out of caution.

Normally, when such a large group of people gather together to do something bad, they should take turns on duty to prevent accidents.

However, this group of people is a motley crowd after all, and they are all cultivators with a casual nature.

In the cold night of winter, even cultivators cannot withstand such low temperatures. It is the most normal state that no one is on duty.

The outskirts of Feimaji are vast and sparsely populated, and there is a certain distance between the courtyards.

Except for the yard where Qingping and her family lived, the surrounding houses were empty and no one lived there.

It must be because of the rampage of monsters and beasts, all the independent cultivators living in the periphery have fled to the central area.

Gao Xian checked around and found no problems, so he took Qiniang for another walk to familiarize themselves with the surroundings.

If you can't win, you know where to run.

The bronze bell of the fourth watch rang, and Gao Xian and Zhu Qiniang took the Qi-restoring pill together. They didn't consume much mana, and taking the Qi-restoring pill in advance was also to prepare for the battle.

It still takes time for the elixir to be transformed into mana. If you want to use the low-level Qi-restoring elixir immediately, it will be too late.

At this time, a few floating clouds came to the sky, blocking the setting full moon, and the world suddenly became dark and silent.

"God help me, I will win this battle!"

Gao Xian was a little excited. When it came time to take action, his wish came true. This was a very good sign.

Zhu Qiniang nodded vigorously: "We will definitely win this battle, go ahead!"

Gao Xian used the flying feather technique and wind control technique to activate the shadowless clothes. He flew over the gate of the courtyard as light as a bird and landed in the courtyard like a feather.

To prevent water from leaking, a passageway was paved with stone slabs in the yard. Gao Xian landed on the largest stone slab.

Only in this way can the sound be reduced as much as possible.

Black Snake was at the ninth level of Qi training, and his senses were sharp. Even if he was sleeping soundly, the slightest noise would startle him.

Even though he was as light as a feather, there was still a sound when he landed. Fortunately, under the cover of the shadowless robe, this slight sound would be covered by the shadowless robe.

Gao Xian took every step carefully until he came to the door of the main room and chose a position to stand.

Please...collect 6...9...books...!

Zhu Qinnan outside the gate silently counted to a hundred, then raised the dozens of pounds of stone in her hand and threw it out.

The stone rolled and flew several feet before hitting the gate, making a big hole in it. The huge roar woke up all the cultivators in the yard.

Although the cultivators of the Red Snake Gang are lazy, they are very alert.

Several cultivators ran out from the east and west wing rooms, holding swords and talismans, and looked towards the gate together.

The hole on the gate and the stones in the yard made everyone shocked and angry. Who came from here to smash the door in the middle of the night? After a cultivator activated the Yi Wood Shield, he ran over to open the gate and looked outside, but found nothing.

The other cultivators also ran out, and they all gathered around the stone, cursing and swearing, all of them very angry.

The lights in the main room came on, and Black Snake's deep voice came out from inside: "What happened?"

"Second Master, I don't know which son of a bitch came and broke the door, making a big hole in it..." A cultivator answered loudly and obediently.

"Fuck him."

Black Snake cursed. He was sleeping comfortably in the warm bed with his beauty in his arms when suddenly this bad thing happened.

The door was broken, it was nothing, it was not worth much, but they were all a little bit guilty about the bad things they did in Pegasus.

Suddenly someone came up and banged on the door. Could it be that he had discovered something? Heishe felt that he should not be careless. He got up and put on his robe. Qingping, who was beside him, did not want to get up, but since Heishe had already gotten up, she could not stay still.

Qingping helped Heishe put on his shoes and socks, and the two of them pushed the door open one after the other and went out.

There was a big gap in their identities and status, so naturally Black Snake walked in front, and Qingping followed a few steps behind.

Qingping had just arrived at the door and hadn't even left the house when she saw a cold, snow-white sword light flash out from the void and cut straight at the back of the black snake's neck.

The sword came suddenly and mysteriously, as fast as lightning, yet as smooth and natural as the breeze blowing on willows.

She was so frightened that her mind went blank and she screamed instinctively.

The many Red Snake Clan cultivators facing the Black Snake also saw the sword light flashing across the sky. They were all horrified.

The black snake, with its back to the sword light, could not see the sword light, but could hear the low and sharp whistle of the sword breaking through the air.

His sharp eyes even saw the dazzling snow-white sword light in the eyes of the cultivator opposite him.

Black Snake was horrified. Where did the sword come from?! He was experienced in combat, and in his fear, he instinctively activated the Mysterious Water Shield on his robe.

At the same time, he mobilized his magic power and leaped forward, trying to avoid the sword.

The magic power on the black cloud robe was flowing, and when it was about to form a shield, the flashing sword light swept across the back of the black snake's neck.

Even the strong body of a ninth-level Qi practitioner could not withstand the stone-cutting sword blessed with the sharp gold rune, nor could it withstand the extremely fast sword blessed with the electric light dragon hand.

The sword passed, the neck was broken, and the head flew off! Black Snake, the master of Tengshe Mountain, was killed by a single sword. His headless body suddenly leaped forward several feet before he fell to the ground.

Gao Xian swung his sword to kill the black snake. The shadowless clothes on his body turned into a transparent water-light robe that covered him, making his figure completely visible.

Gao Xian had already activated the Green Lotus Crown, and a clear light like a veil was hanging down from the Green Lotus Crown, completely covering his face.

Many cultivators of the Red Snake Gang looked at Gao Xian in amazement. They could only see the blurry features of the man after the light cleared. They could not see anything more specific.

Qingping, who was standing in the house, recognized Gao Xian from his back, recognized the green lotus crown on his head, and recognized the green robe he was wearing.

Qing Ping was absolutely certain that this person was Gao Xian! But she couldn't believe that Gao Xian, who was as timid as a rabbit, could actually kill the ferocious black snake with one sword!

Even though she saw it with her own eyes, she still felt that it was all like a dream, so unreal! She didn't know why she thought of a saying: It is as hard to know as the shadow, and as powerful as thunder.

When Qingping was daydreaming, she suddenly felt a sharp pain in the center of her eyebrows, as if she had been pierced by an invisible spear.

Qingping's eyes went dark and she fainted immediately.

Before she fainted, she vaguely saw a few flashes of red light breaking through the air and falling among the crowd.
