Chapter 11

Tap, tap, tap! Qin Jiang's figure moved like lightning, retreating ten zhang in a single breath, while simultaneously drawing the Black Water from his waist. The blade flashed with a cold light, and the surrounding air seemed to drop by several degrees.

Thin mist dispersed, and a faint, delicate laughter sounded like the most enchanting woman in the world dancing lightly.

A faint fragrance wafted over, the vision before his eyes suddenly blurred, and a feeling of dizziness surged from the back of his neck into his mind.

When he opened his eyes again, the thin mist was almost gone, and the dim sky had become much clearer.

He looked at his hand; the Black Water was still gripped tightly, but he looked around with some caution.

"Young Master, this humble one is Yu'er, greetings."

A soft, seductive female voice rang out, and a figure in a pink dress walked gracefully from ahead, her waist swaying lightly, so slender it seemed it could be snapped with one hand.

Qin Jiang fixed his gaze, astonishment appearing in his eyes; in this life or the last, he had never seen such a beauty.

Willow-leaf brows and a swan-like neck, dark hair slightly lifted to reveal half a shoulder, a pair of eyes flowing with charm, and a delicate face like white jade and congealed fat.

A charming smile and captivating eyes—so-called peerless beauty was nothing more than this.

"Miss, if there is nothing else, may I take my leave?" he said softly.

"Young Master~ you just arrived, why are you leaving so soon?"

Another voice sounded, equally melodious but carrying a fiery, bewitching quality.

A woman in a red dress appeared from behind Yu'er; the bright red dress represented her personality.

"This humble one is Xian'er, greetings, Young Master. You are so handsome, it truly makes this humble one's heart thump with excitement~"

Qin Jiang retreated slightly, keeping his distance from the two women. The woman in red who appeared later was no less beautiful than Yu'er, only more aggressive.

"Two ladies, I came here with no intention of disturbing you, please let me leave."

"Hee hee hee, Young Master, do you really not want to be with me..."

Xian'er looked at Qin Jiang and reached out to lift her skirt, revealing her smooth, fair calves.

"Even if Young Master wants us to serve you together, it is possible, you know~"

As she spoke, her eyes curved slightly, full of temptation.

Qin Jiang took another half-step back, his figure blocked by a locust tree that had appeared out of nowhere.

He looked at the two women in front of him; faced with this scene, any man would likely be unable to hold back.

It was no wonder that even knowing they were spirits, one would still fall for their trap.

He took a few peeled garlic cloves from his bosom, squeezed out the juice, and smeared it on his face; the pungent scent made him a bit clearer-headed.

Opposite him, Xian'er's eyes flickered, and she moved with lotus steps toward Qin Jiang, her gait graceful and swaying.

Qin Jiang watched the approaching Xian'er cautiously, gripping the Black Water blade tightly.

"Young Master, no need to be nervous. My sister and I only wish to share the joys of fish and water with you; what is there to worry about?"

Xian'er walked up close, a faint fragrance entering his nostrils, and Qin Jiang's blood flow accelerated.

Pfft~ A silver light flashed, and the Black Water blade pierced Xian'er's heart, warm blood splattering out.

Xian'er lowered her head, looking at the blade in her chest, the corners of her mouth curling up slightly, "Young Master, you are truly decisive~ It is a pity I cannot spend a wonderful night with you~"

Ssh—! The blade sliced from her chest through her throat, and Xian'er died instantly.

Looking ahead again, Yu'er's figure had also disappeared.

Crack, crack, crack! Bang! The sound of a mirror shattering rang out, the surrounding scenery crumbled, everything dissipated, and the sky turned dim once more.

Qin Jiang slowly opened his eyes, his fingertips lightly brushing the blade, and his figure suddenly charged toward the two humanoid foxes opposite him.

Seeing that Qin Jiang had not been lost in the illusion, the two fox spirits showed no emotional fluctuation, leaning down and leaping left and right, advancing toward Qin Jiang at high speed.

Ding, ding, ding!!

The blade and sharp claws collided, sparking and emitting the sound of metal clashing. The three figures moved rapidly through the forest, Qin Jiang struggling to defend himself by utilizing the complex, crisscrossing tree trunks.

Although the attack power of these two beasts was not strong, their speed was too fast! It was fortunate they hadn't acted while he was trapped in the illusion, otherwise he would have been dead long ago! The crisis of death chased behind him, causing his heartbeat to accelerate sharply, and the sound of blood flowing in his veins appeared clearly in his ears.

Surging internal Qi poured into his arms, his muscles instantly bulged, and blue veins stood out like crawling earthworms! Ssh! In an instant, a white light shone, illuminating the dense forest for a moment.

The Black Water blade sliced through the air, making a sound like tearing silk, and slashed horizontally toward one of the fox spirits!

Clang! The sound of metal colliding rang out; the fox spirit crossed its claws in front of its chest and held them high, the sharp claws being slashed into by nearly half, barely blocking the blow.

The next moment, before it could react, it felt its arms lighten; the blade that had slashed into its claws had already been retracted by Qin Jiang.

Tiger Form! Fierce Tiger Descends the Mountain! Qin Jiang stepped on a tree trunk, simultaneously dropping his body and delivering a powerful downward slash.

The air around him vibrated violently, emitting a sound like a tiger's roar.

Ssh! Ssh! Two sounds of flesh being torn rang out almost simultaneously, and Qin Jiang stepped on the fox spirit's shoulder to gain leverage and retreat.

Drip! Drip! Blood dripped; he glanced at his scratched forearm, where three claw marks deep enough to see bone were bleeding.

Without hesitation, he took the Cloud Pattern Fruit directly from his bosom.

At this point, he couldn't care about selling it for money; he squeezed out the juice with two fingers and smeared it on the claw marks.

Immediately, a warm current flowed through the wound, and the claw marks scabbed over at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Although it hadn't fully recovered, at least he could no longer feel the pain.

Opposite him, the two fox spirits were one in front and one behind; the one in the back had one claw severed, blood staining its fur, and could be said to have lost half its threat.

But even so, Qin Jiang was already injured, while the other fox spirit was still in its prime state.

Especially since Qin Jiang had just realized that these two fox spirits seemed to have no sense of pain!

No matter the situation, there was always a smile on their lips, which made him feel somewhat horrified.

"Giggle, giggle, giggle~"

The delicate laughter echoed in the forest, and the intact fox spirit opposite walked forward slowly, its posture bewitching.

Whoosh! The white-furred fox spirit's figure suddenly accelerated, reaching Qin Jiang in an instant.

Its right arm swung, and the claw blade sliced through the air, releasing a faint pink glow.

Clang——! Qin Jiang raised his blade to block it at his shoulder; the immense force shook his body, and he knelt on one knee during the struggle, barely blocking the claw.

This beast's strength had increased! He knew that at this moment, he had no advantage against this fox spirit.

While he was thinking about how to break the deadlock, a white shadow suddenly appeared before his eyes—it was a fox spirit!

A huge fox leg grew rapidly in his vision; in an instant, his elbow pressed down at high speed! Bear Form! Bear Bows to the Mountain! Bang! His elbow collided with the fox spirit's lower leg, and the immense force sent him flying, crashing heavily into a tree trunk.

Pfft! A mouthful of blood sprayed out, scattering onto the weeds on the ground.

Woo——! Before he could react, the two foxes followed one after another, kicking him simultaneously! Two white-furred fox legs enlarged rapidly before his eyes; in the blink of an eye, Qin Jiang exerted force with his legs, rolled forward violently, and simultaneously thrust his blade into the lower abdomen of the fox spirit that had already lost a claw.

The blade, driven by inertia, moved diagonally upward from the abdomen, directly piercing the heart.

Ssh! He pulled out the blade using the momentum of the forward charge, bringing with it a string of black blood beads that splattered on the ground, corroding the grass and rising in black smoke.

This was the heart blood of this fox spirit.

Boom——! Crack, crack, crack~ The black locust tree was kicked down by the fox spirit and crashed slowly to the ground.

Qin Jiang stood firm and looked at the Black Water in his hand; it was stained with black blood but showed no change at all.

If it weren't for this Black Water, he probably wouldn't have been able to cause any damage to these two fox spirits.

Too strong! These two guys were definitely existences comparable to true martial artists!
