The Prodigies War

However, while Lin Xun was eavesdropping, he came to realize that Lei Fengque and the woman in colorful clothes were communicating via voice transmission.

And on the rest of the journey, Lei Fengque and the rest of the group all communicated in such a way.

What are they taking precautions against?

The feeling that something was not right became stronger and stronger.

“Can’t wait any longer.”

His intuition, which he had honed from years of battles, made him decide to take action at this very moment.

Silently, the No-Nonsense Bow that was constructed from white bones appeared in his grip. A blood-red bowstring was stringed through the sinister bow.

And in his left hand, two divine arrows quietly took shape.

One was entirely snow-white, glowing a silvery light, and had a chillingly cold tip. The shaft was around the thickness of a thumb and engraved with a word in frighteningly sharp writing: Jiguang!

The breathing of the two divine arrows resonated with each other and their aura was so cold that it induced chills in anyone.

These two divine arrows were part of Lin Xun’s spoils when he invaded Sunset Current Valley, the lair of the Golden Crow Clan. He had been carrying them with him ever since, but he has never had the chance to properly use them.

Just like the Biluo Arrow and Moli Arrow, these two divine arrows were part of the nine divine arrows of the Great Yi Tribe. They were not only magical but could also unleash terrifying destructive power.

Lin Xun’s mind was as still as ice and his dark eyes were devoid of emotions. In fact, he was ready to go all out.

He had just one goal: to rescue Lu Dubu and Su Muhan before the enemy could react.

It would be bad if the enemy had the chance to use Lu Dubu and Su Muhan as hostages.

……

“Does that mean someone has been following us all this time?” The woman in colorful clothes looked perplexed.

“Yes, Brother Kong Zhao even suspects this person to be Jin Duyi!” Lei Fengque’s expression darkened. “So, this time we must be vigilant and be ready to fight at any time. At the slightest sign of movement, we must attack with full strength right away.”

“Alright!”

The woman in colorful clothes and the others agreed in unison.

They all started to gather strength, ready to unleash their qi at any time.

Swoosh!

Before long, a strange sound came from a green swamp not far away.

“Kill!”

Lei Fengque and others, who were long prepared for battle, launched into attack mode right away, activating all sorts of dao arts and weapons.

Dao light beamed and waves of light danced across the world. The epic scene made the heaven and earth appear dim.

However, the next moment, Lei Fengque’ and the others’ expressions tensed up.

They had launched a barrage of attacks at the green swamp, sending murky water splashing high up and setting plants and trees ablaze. Unfortunately, not only was there no sign of the enemy, but a group of bright green moths were propelled into the air, hissing furiously.

Lei Fengque and the others looked at each other in dismay, realizing that they had made a mistake and their actions were a little too extreme.

They were so paranoid that they had mistaken the swaying of grass as the enemy….

Buzz—

The bright green moths were each as big as a fist. The beating of their wings stirred up clouds of green dust like smoke.

Enraged, they charged at Lei Fengque and his group.

“Run!”

The pupils of Lei Fengque and the others rapidly shrank. They all bolted without any hesitation. The creatures in the Ancient Immortal Forbidden Zone were all extremely terrifying.

Although the moths looked inconspicuous, the aura around them was unquestionably bizarre and eerie, so much so that it instantly made Lei Fengque and the others feel uneasy.

At this moment—Two divine arrows tore through the air like two streams of illusory light that had pierced time and space.

The speed was astonishingly fast!

Most incredibly, the two arrows merged together in mid-air with a sharp ring. The arrow body turned transparent and bright, while their combined power soared dramatically and murderous intent flared around it.

“This is bad!”

Lei Fengque’s face blanched. He sensed deadly danger.

They were all focused on running from a group of green moths. Who would have thought that someone would try to kill them during this time?

Moreover, the attack was too fast, so fast that Lei Fengque had no time to warn the others before a loud explosion boomed out.

A comrade exploded into flesh and blood. The arrow pierced right through his chest.

“Junior Brother Wang!”

Panicked cries rang out.

In the blink of an eye, a core disciple of the Primordial Dao Court dropped dead. The unexpected death chilled everyone to the core.

And this was only the beginning!

After firing the two arrows, Jiguang and Pianyu, Lin Xun had already teleported across the air, ready to launch his next killing move.

Clang!

The Broken Blade slashed across the air like a river of stars, aiming straight for the woman in colorful clothes.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

Countless Taixuan sword qi lashed down like a rainstorm, blocking the sky and the sun, and enveloping Lei Fengque.

Meanwhile, Lin Xun sped straight towards a man in a gray robe, who was holding Lu Dubu and Su Muhan.

Fast!

So fast!

Once he made a move, it was a thunderous blow!

“Do you want to rescue them? You wish!”

The gray-robed man roared and his body erupted in a blaze of light. He channeled power to his hands, disregarding his own safety. He only wanted to kill Lu Dubu and Su Muhan before Lin Xun could rescue them.

However, his movements were not as fast as Lin Xun’s finger.

Chi!

A blinding ray of light flashed out from his fingertips—condensed, powerful, and fierce.

Thorn of Sharpness!

It was the innate power of the White Metal Dao Body.

Pu!

The gray-robed man had a hole pierced through the space between his eyebrows, and his spirit was wiped out in an instant!

The power that he had gathered to his hands and about to unleash to kill Lu Dubu and Su Muhan also dissipated at this very moment.

With a bang, the gray-robed man collapsed to the ground, his eyes wide with anger and bewilderment even at death.

It seemed as if he had never imagined that there could be such terrifying power in this world.

Lin Xun had already rescued Lu Dubu and Su Muhan.

Rumble—

The void quaked endlessly. The group of green moths wailed terribly as they dropped to the ground from the impact and turned into ashes.

The woman in colorful clothes staggered back after being struck by the Broken Blade. She looked to be in a terrible state.

Lei Fengque roared and strained himself to blast away the countless Taixuan sword qi coming from every direction, but he was still left with many sword slashes on his body.

There was one person who hadn’t reacted yet, and it was only at this moment did he let out a loud and furious bellow, “Evil creature—!”

The voice shook the clouds.

Everything unbelievably happened and ended in a twinkling.

In such a short time, Lin Xun not only killed two enemies but also rescued Lu Dubu and Su Muhan.

His fierceness, swiftness, and domineering and superior power turned the world upside down!

It should be noted that everyone in the Ancient Immortal Forbidden Zone were extraordinary characters, but they were still killed by Lin Xun without even a chance to fight back.

Firstly, it was because the timing of his attack was extremely perfect and skillful, striking when the enemy was least prepared.

Secondly, with his current strength, in this world, not many people at the same cultivation stage as him could likely survive a full-power attack of his.

“Jin Duyi, it is indeed you!”

Lei Fengque, the woman in colorful clothes, and another man in brocade robes gathered together, their faces livid with rage.

They gnashed their teeth with hatred. They had been guarded and on constant alert, but the enemy grasped a chance because of the sudden appearance of the group of damn green moths!

“Brother Jin, you really came…”

Having escaped the jaws of death, Lu Dubu and Su Muhan felt like everything was a dream.

Especially when they saw that it was Lin Xun who saved them. They didn’t know how to express the gratitude and shame they felt, and they even thought they were a burden to Lin Xun and had caused him to risk his life for them again and again.

“I am the one who should be ashamed. If it weren’t for me, you two would not have to suffer like this.” Lin Xun let out a sigh.

“Well said!”

Suddenly, a round of applause sounded from the distance, then Kong Zhao, followed by six Primordial Dao Court disciples, teleported across the air.

His eyes scanned Lin Xun like a lightning as he complimented, “Look everyone, in order to save the two pieces of trash, he did not hesitate to expose his whereabouts. This is loyalty, courage and unrivaled bravery.”

The voice was full of sarcasm.

The arrival of Kong Zhao and his group allowed Lei Fengque and others to breathe a sigh of relief. Lin Xun’s sudden attack had scared them witless. If Kong Zhao had not come, they would not have the guts to face off against Lin Xun again.

“It seems like you already knew my whereabouts.”

Lin Xun realized that Kong Zhao might have already discovered his whereabouts as early as when he was on Red Snow Mountain.

Lei Fengque and the others were nothing but bait for him.

“Smart!”

Kong Zhao snapped his fingers, lips twisting into a playful and ruthless smile. “Unfortunately, Jin Duyi, forget about rescuing other people, you might not be able to even protect your own life.”

“What? From you?” Lin Xun snorted, his dark eyes as calm as ever.

Despite being surrounded from all sides, he showed not a hint of fear.

Kong Zhao stroked his chin, uttering leisurely, “Do you not believe it? Then I will tell you now why you can’t save those two.”

A strange and obscure sound came from his mouth.

Bang!

Without any movement from him, Su Muhan’s body ruptured, blood rained and dyed the sky and the ground a horrifying red.

Lin Xun’s pupils shrank, and it felt as if a huge hammer had slammed his heart.

An indescribable feeling of rage gushed up from the depths of his heart like lava, causing his body to shake uncontrollably.

He died?!

He was killed by the enemy before my eyes?

At that moment, Lin Xun thought back to the scene in the Mythical Huang Secret Realm when Teng Yichen and Gui Shanxing were suddenly attacked by Zu Feiyu and eliminated in front of him.

He was also aggrieved at the time, but he knew that Teng Yichen and Gui Shanxing were only eliminated and their lives were not in danger.

But now…Su Muhan was killed right in front of him!
