Misery: There is a pawn shop here

Chapter 41: Jian Xie is ambushed and suddenly changes
Dusk fell, the setting sun a blood-red. Jian Xue Wuming, sword strapped to his shoulder, trotted forward, intent on completing his task. Beichen Yin called for retreat, and the scabbard of Zhu Yanxie clanged incessantly at his waist. His cloak swept through withered branches and fallen leaves, startling a few jackdaws. Suddenly, the ancient trees beside the road stirred without wind, and in an instant, the sound of arrows piercing the air ripped through silk!

"Hmm?" Jian Xue Wuming tapped the ground with his toes, and the bluestone cracked in response. The moment Zhu Yanxie's sword was unsheathed, a cold light like the Milky Way hung inverted, shattering countless poisoned iron arrows into dust. Wherever the Frost and Snow Sword's energy swept, three-foot ice crystals spread along the tree roots, dyeing the entire pine forest like a world of glazed glass.

Suddenly, the roiling earth was heard, and a foul wind blew in my face. A vast army of evil spirits emerged from the earth, their bones shrouded in rotting flesh, and a faint fire flickered in their eye sockets. The two guardians of the Septic Evil Spirit: Fu Tiantang waved his folding fan, a venomous glint in his eyes; Gui Zuoshi stood with his hands behind his back, his murderous intent fixed on the incoming enemy. In a flash, he had Jian Xue Wuming completely surrounded. Behind the army, the curtains of a black sedan swirled gently, revealing the outline of a six-armed demonic figure, its features indistinguishable. Only mercury-like slime slithered from its base. It was the leader of the Septic Evil Spirit, Tian Can Shi Yue: Night Reborn.

"Who are you? Why are you blocking the way?" Jian Xue Wuming held Zhu Yan in his hand and frowned as he looked at the evil army in front of him. What a strange thing, he had never seen before.

"No need to waste time talking nonsense. Judging from your clothes, you must be Jianxue Wuming. Now that you are here, prepare to die!"

As Master Gui Zuo finished his words, a dark voice was heard. Ye Chongsheng mobilized all six of his hands, and the evil seals coiled around the swordsman's feet like poisonous vines. Jian Xue Wuming felt his zhenqi stagnate, and Zhu Yan's sword light dimmed by three points. Meanwhile, ghostly figures loomed, and the two guardians led the army to surround them, and a bloodbath ensued.

"you!"

The visitor had ill intentions. A cold light flashed in Jian Xue Wuming's eyes. The sword energy moved, the temperature dropped sharply, and the icy air led the way. Then, the sword energy as dense as snow came, and the frozen evil army was completely shattered.

"It has a background, but it's not enough!" Master Gui Zuo waved his palm and actually absorbed the power of Jianxue Hanshuang from the evil one, and counterattacked. Jianxie swung his sword to meet the attack, but Zhu Yan showed a cold edge, and his palm energy was not inferior to the edge. The wilderness and forest were surrounded by a snowy light, sweeping out layers of murderous aura.

"Blood spider silk!" Futiantang joined the battle, and his true energy turned into strange spider silk into a net, trapping Jianxue Wuming layer by layer. Jianxie just threw Zhuyan in his hand into the air, and countless sword energies came down, breaking the spider web siege. He fought against Gui Zuoshi with his bare hands, and was no less inferior, hitting his vital points everywhere. Unfortunately, the blood-sickening evil was immortal, and even if he suffered injuries, he could recover quickly. As the battle time passed, Feng gradually retreated, and the broken evil began to merge again, attacking Jianxie. The enemy was numerous and he was few, and he wanted to escape. Anger gradually rose in Jianxie's heart.

"Snow feathers flying rain!"

With an angry roar, sword energy poured out like rain, instantly tearing a hole in the siege of the evil spirits. However, at this moment, Ye Chongsheng, who had been watching the battle from the sidelines, suddenly saw the action and used his ultimate move to explode the Yellow Springs, sweeping Fengdu with anger, and with a terrifying force, he attacked Jian Xue Wuming, who was trying to escape from the siege.

Jian Xue Wuming had just used his old move when he ran out of energy. Just as his fatal move was about to come, a sudden gust of inexplicable breeze came and blocked Ye Chongsheng's fatal move.

"Oh, oh, oh, hands, why can't you control yourself? Have you forgotten that you are just a man from the mountains now?" He sighed repeatedly, as if the person who made the move was quite helpless.

"Who is messing with this?! Looking for death!" Ye Chongsheng's figure turned into a mercury shadow in an instant and followed the direction of the attack, leaving only one order: "Continue to chase!"

After the mysterious person blocked Ye Chongsheng's killing move for Jian Xie, Jian Xue Wuming also took this opportunity to leave the battle circle and head towards Huo Ran's realm.

Behind him, the two guardians of the Septic Blood and the Evil Monster led the army and continued to pursue him, and the roars of the Evil Monster continued.

……

……

In the vast realm, Jianzi Xianji looked up at the sky with a frown.

He had learned of the fate of the Three Mysterious Sounds of the Northern Wulin from Linghu Shenyi. After Qin Juexian's resurrection, he had secluded himself in Jufengli and taken on the responsibility of caring for Feng Ma. Linghu Shenyi, a master of casting, had now lost his forging abilities and his character had changed, which inevitably made Jianzi Xianji even more wary of the mysterious Youjian Pawnshop. While the apparent crisis facing the martial arts world was undoubtedly Deng Jiuwu and his gang, he had a hunch that the pawnshop's existence was the true source of instability.

"Jianzi, Jianzi, something's wrong!"

At this moment, outside the realm of sudden change, Qin Jiaxian, the number one intelligence dealer of the righteous path and the most unlucky person in the martial arts world (lucky star), ran into the Glazed Fairyland shouting, his straw raincoat stained with mud and his face full of panic.

"Qin Jiaxian?" Jian Zixianji looked at the person who came, and raised his eyebrows slightly. "What happened? Why are you so panicked?"

Qin Jiaxian ran out of breath and took several deep breaths before looking at Jian Zixianji and saying, "Yes, it's Beiyu Imperial City..."

"Beiyu?" Hearing Qin Jiaxian mention the Beichen Dynasty, Jian Zixianji was also shocked. He stepped forward and asked hurriedly: "Beichen Dynasty, was..."

Before he finished speaking, murderous intent suddenly appeared. A fierce look flashed in Qin Jiaxian's eyes. He slammed his palm directly at Jianzi Xianji. However, Jianzi Xianji was prepared. He raised his palm to meet his opponent's. Immediately, the remaining power swept across the area, and a shocking wave of energy appeared!

"What a Sword Immortal!" Ruyi's magic was broken, and Qin Jiaxian instantly restored his appearance as a geomancer. He looked at Jianzi Xianji and exclaimed, "How did you find out the flaw?"

Jian Zixianji swept his whisk and said with a smile, "It's true that the transformations of the Nirvana Pure Body Ruyi Method are flawless, and even the performance is very lifelike. However, your understanding of Qin Jiaxian is still a little inadequate. Given Qin Jiaxian's personality, how could he possibly operate alone in the Jianghu? Next time you want to disguise yourself, remember to at least find someone to pretend to be the Yetu Spirit and the Yinshi Man."

Upon hearing this, the Geography Department laughed heartily, dragon energy surging around him, and the bricks beneath his feet turned to dust. "Well, well, well, your observation is so meticulous. You are indeed worthy of being called the Sword Son Immortal, the pinnacle of Taoism!"

Jian Zi Xian Ji took in the energy and said solemnly, "However, since you can personally deal with Jian Zi, it seems that the Beichen Dynasty has really... It is as swift as the wind and as aggressive as fire. Even the Central Plains has not received any news. Your Excellency is really a good hand."

"Thank you for the compliment! After today, I will send another great gift to the Glazed Wonderland!"

"I think this gift will not cost me my life."

"Ha, so, as expected of Jian Zi Xian Ji, he is indeed extremely wise."

"In that case——"

Jian Zixianji flicked his whisk, and the ancient sword behind him shone brightly in the sky.

"I'll let you experience the sword for yourself. It's unparalleled in the world!"

"I can ask for advice on the highest level of cultivation in the Dao sect!"

Facing the pinnacle of Taoism, even with the dragon energy and magic power at his disposal, the Geography Bureau did not dare to be careless at all, and exerted all his strength, ready to strike!
