Six Realms Immortal Emperor

Chapter 19 Turning Defeat into Victory

"Stand further away!" Dongfang Siyu shouted without turning her head.

The three fought fiercely, neither gaining the upper hand. Xu Jingtian stood by, anxiously watching, unable to intervene due to the vast difference in their strength. He could only feel the fierce winds from their battle stinging his face, and the way the three of them flew up and down made him dizzy.

puff!

puff!

Dongfang Siyu's sword moves were fierce, causing her opponents to be somewhat flustered. One of them was caught off guard and was stabbed twice by the sword energy.

"what!"

"what!"

"I'm going to kill you!" The inner disciple was so enraged that he swung his broadsword wildly, trying to fight Dongfang Siyu to the death.

"Hmph! It's too late to retaliate now!" Dongfang Siyu wasn't about to let him hit her so easily and dodged the attack with ease.

With one of the strongest among the three opponents missing, Dongfang Siyu handled the situation with ease. Her voice, like a death knell, lingered in the minds of the two opponents.

puff!

The gray-clad man surnamed Jin was also unfortunately struck by Dongfang Siyu, and blood immediately stained his entire shoulder, indicating that he was also seriously injured.

"Ah! Second Brother! Let's attack together and fight her!" shouted the gray-clad man surnamed Jin, thrusting his long sword fiercely at Dongfang Siyu.

The three fought desperately, but it only benefited Xu Jingtian. It was unclear what Dongfang Siyu's intentions were; several times she could have killed them with a single sword strike, but she didn't, only injuring them lightly. The three men's movements noticeably slowed, becoming extremely cautious, which Xu Jingtian could clearly see.

Most of the three of them still used the Misty Wave Illusionary Movement Technique, so it seems that none of them had practiced any other more powerful martial arts techniques.

Along the way, Xu Jingtian had become very proficient in the Misty Wave Illusionary Movement Technique. With Dongfang Siyu's personal instruction, he had learned a lot. However, most of the moves could not be mastered without combat experience, and the actual battle before him had greatly benefited him.

Xu Jingtian watched carefully and felt reassured when he saw that Dongfang Siyu had taken control of the situation. He then diligently memorized the power, speed, and effect of each move in their fight, as if he were actually there. This greatly helped him cultivate the Illusionary Wave Movement Technique; there was no more practical teaching material than this.

Seeing him intently watching the battle, Dongfang Siyu glanced at him knowingly and said, "I knew I hadn't misjudged you. You actually came back to help me. Watch closely!"

"Divine Light of All Things!"

"Sweep through the enemy ranks!"

"A sage points the way!"

"..."

These moves all came from the Misty Wave Illusionary Movement Technique. Dongfang Siyu demonstrated each of the martial arts techniques in it, actually using real combat as a demonstration to impart her experience to Xu Jingtian, which angered the two gray-clad men so much that they yelled loudly.

"Xu Jingtian! Get the hell out of here!" The man in gray surnamed Jin, unable to do anything about Dongfang Siyu, shouted loudly at Xu Jingtian.

This person actually knew Xu Jingtian. Upon hearing this, Dongfang Siyu responded with an "oh," feeling somewhat surprised, and her attack involuntarily slowed down.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, the gray-clad man surnamed Jin called out to the other man, "Second brother, you hold them off for a bit, I need to take a pill first." With that, he withdrew from the range of the Purple Soft Sword's attack, took out two black pills from his storage bag, and stuffed them into his mouth.

Perhaps due to excessive consumption of spiritual energy, the gray-robed man surnamed Jin took a deep breath after consuming the pill, and his spirit was immediately invigorated.

The man surnamed Jin in gray was relieved, but the other person suddenly felt much more pressured and urged him urgently, "Third brother, you hurry up and take over, I need to take a pill too!"

Upon hearing this, the gray-clad man surnamed Jin immediately joined the battle. With a flick of his longsword, his momentum surged, and he was able to withstand Dongfang Siyu's attacks.

The other man retreated a foot, took out a pill and popped it into his mouth. His eyes remained fixed on the two fighting figures, but his steps continued to recede further and further away. Finally, he chuckled and called out to the gray-clad man surnamed Jin, "Third brother, I'm sorry, second brother, I'll take my leave first! Don't worry, I will definitely avenge you and eldest brother!"

After saying this, the man leaped away without looking back, abandoning the gray-clad man surnamed Jin.

"Second brother, you!" The gray-clad man surnamed Jin was shocked, but his long sword was tightly entangled by Dongfang Siyu, and he could not break free.

"Trying to escape? Not so easy!"

In the blink of an eye, the man had escaped five or six zhang away. With a cold snort from Dongfang Siyu, she first repelled the longsword of the gray-clad man surnamed Jin, and then flung out her purple soft sword, shooting towards the fleeing man.

"The Immortal Points the Way!"

With this move, Dongfang Siyu undoubtedly used martial arts techniques.

If the man in gray surnamed Jin had reminded his second brother at that moment, the man could have easily dodged. But his second brother abandoned him instead, and the man in gray surnamed Jin, enraged and ashamed, withdrew his long sword and fled in the opposite direction.

"Ah!" The man was only thinking about escaping and didn't look back. He couldn't see what was behind him and was stabbed through the heart by the soft sword. He fell to the ground with a thud and died instantly.

"Hmph! A bunch of selfish bastards!"

Dongfang Siyu sneered, sat down on the ground, and watched the departing figure of the gray-clad man surnamed Jin, knowing that the hope of catching up was slim. It was the same last time; the gray-clad man surnamed Jin fought and fled, and in the end, he even used a speed-traveling talisman to escape.

In today's battle, she fought against three opponents single-handedly until the very end, expending a tremendous amount of spiritual energy, almost to the point of exhaustion, relying entirely on her willpower and resilience. If the other two had been able to work together, she certainly wouldn't have been the one to emerge victorious.

Xu Jingtian, who was watching from the sidelines, disregarded his own injuries and rushed forward, asking with concern, "Young Miss, are you alright?"

Dongfang Siyu stared at him coldly for a long while before pointing to the gray-clad man's corpse in the distance and saying, "Go and get the storage bags from their waists."

Xu Jingtian didn't dare ask any more questions and hurriedly ran to the gray-robed men's corpses, taking a bag from each of their waists. He didn't actually know what a storage bag was, but he figured it was probably a bag cultivators used to store things. He also saw the gray-robed men take out pills from them, so it must be those pills.

He presented the storage bags with both hands, but from the outside, the two storage bags were ordinary and no different from ordinary bags.

Dongfang Siyu took the bag, and with a slight circulation of her spiritual power, she was able to see everything inside.

"Hmph! They have quite a lot in stock; I wonder where they plundered it from."

Xu Jingtian had no spiritual energy and was eager to know what treasures were inside, but he couldn't see anything.

Dongfang Siyu then examined the other storage bag as well, tossed one to Xu Jingtian, and said coldly, "Here! You helped me today, this is yours. From now on, we're even."

Startled, Xu Jingtian quickly took it and hurriedly said, "Miss, actually..."

Dongfang Siyu turned her face away, stopping him, and said, "You don't need to explain to me. I'll take care of bringing you to the Brahma Sect. From now on, we'll each go our own way in cultivation. Don't bother me again!"

Xu Jingtian was so frightened that he dared not reply, and could only nod vigorously. He knew in his heart that the gray-clad man surnamed Jin's address of "Xu Jingtian," coupled with his illusory movement technique, must have aroused her suspicion. Dongfang Siyu was no ordinary person; the fact that she hadn't attacked him yet was already showing him the utmost respect.

After a while, Dongfang Siyu stood up, took something out of the storage bag that had just been confiscated, and handed it to Xu Jingtian.

"Go and sprinkle this stuff on their corpses."

Xu Jingtian took it and saw that it was a packet of brown powder that emitted a pungent smell.

He carefully sprinkled the powder on the dark-faced man, and immediately a cloud of black smoke drifted out, followed by a crackling sound. The man's body rapidly dried up at a visible speed and disappeared in a moment, leaving only a pile of bones.

"Ah! What is this?" Xu Jingtian was so frightened that he collapsed to the ground, his face filled with terror. Could this brown powder be poison? It was so potent that it could turn flesh into nothingness; it was terrifying.

Dongfang Siyu looked at him coldly and said, word by word, "Haven't you heard of the Demonic Sect's Hundred Poisons Corpse-Dissolving Powder?"

Xu Jingtian shook his head, staring at the skeleton as if he were about to vomit. He knew that Dongfang Siyu's misunderstanding of him was deepening, but the matter was difficult to explain clearly.

"There's still one more body, let's deal with it together." Dongfang Siyu turned her head to the side.

"Ah, do we still have to do it like this?" Xu Jingtian was a little embarrassed. It was too bloody and made people's hair stand on end.

"What, you're being merciful to them now? If I were dead, I probably would have suffered the same fate!" Dongfang Siyu said coldly.

"Ah!" Although Xu Jingtian was unwilling to believe it, he knew that what Dongfang Siyu said might be close to the truth. If the two of them were killed, they would most likely turn into a pile of bones.

Xu Jingtian had no choice but to do as he was told. He sprinkled the powder on another man, then turned his head to the side. A crackling sound came from behind, and then there was no more movement.

"Let's go!" Dongfang Siyu said calmly, and then left without looking back.

Xu Jingtian hurriedly followed behind her. The two remained silent the whole way. Dongfang Siyu was still sullen and had returned to her usual indifference.

"Young Miss! You're finally back! Sile, he..."

When Dongfang Sixing heard that the two had returned together, he looked up, but his expression was dazed, indicating that he had suffered a great blow.

"Bury him on the spot, I have avenged him!"

Seeing the situation, Dongfang Siyu understood the general idea, but she remained expressionless and her words were devoid of any emotion.

"Buried?"

Dongfang Sixing was slightly taken aback before wiping away his tears. Could it be that Dongfang Siyu had cultivated to the point of being devoid of any emotion?

"What else can we do? Are you going to carry it with you the whole way?" Dongfang Siyu glared coldly at Dongfang Sixing, then turned and left.

Dongfang Sixing stood there awkwardly, glancing at Xu Jingtian on the other side.

It seems Dongfang Siyu is really angry, and even Dongfang Sixing is suffering because of him. Xu Jingtian remained silent, gave him a wink, and then pulled Dongfang Sixing along to bury Dongfang Sile's body.
