Chapter 28: Let's Negotiate

"Junior sister!"

Cao Zhangqing's eyes widened at the sight, yet he dared not move, watching helplessly as Long Qingxin collapsed to the ground with a thud, falling silent.

"If you stop now and let them go, I can still spare your life."

Jiang Xun looked at Jun Tianling and said.

He truly could not bear to strike this beauty, even though this was merely a remnant soul.

At the same time, he could use these words to gain some favor.

Sure enough, as Jiang Xun spoke, the favorability of Lin Feng, Hua Bairui, and Tu Wan all increased.

"Stop? And then have you all gang up on me?"

Jun Tianling sneered.

"Delusional!"

Having said that, Jun Tianling rushed toward Gu Qing.

In her view, Gu Qing was brought by him; if she captured her, she could force this old man to surrender.

It must be said, Jun Tianling's speed was indeed fast.

Jiang Xun could not catch up at all.

In the blink of an eye, Jun Tianling was already in front of Gu Qing.

"Bang!"

The anticipated capture of Gu Qing did not happen.

Lin Feng used all his strength to lunge in front of Gu Qing, using his shoulder to knock Jun Tianling away.

After steadying himself, he immediately sat down to regulate his breathing, but in that instant, his soul had already suffered some fragmentation, and Lin Feng's cultivation realm directly fell.

He dropped directly from Nascent Soul Mid-Stage Peak back to Nascent Soul Early Stage.

"Young friend Lin?"

Jiang Xun was also surprised; he had not expected him to do this.

"Senior has saved me and my junior sister repeatedly; I should repay you."

Lin Feng gritted his teeth and said, finding it even harder to resist the Divine Soul Attack at this moment.

Ordinary Divine Soul Attacks would end in an instant and would not persist.

But this Divine Soul Attack from Jun Tianling was not right.

It was like a parasitic bloodsucker, as if it would not stop until it had drained the host dry.

Gu Qing and Liu Ruoyun did not dare to move, nor did they dare to open their eyes, not daring to be distracted in the slightest.

They had completely cut off their perception of the outside world.

They knew nothing of what had just happened.

Because they were disciples of the Lingerie-Sect, using Dual Cultivation as their primary means of training, although their realms improved quickly, they were unstable in every aspect.

Especially Gu Qing, who had just broken through and had not yet had time to stabilize.

Liu Ruoyun relied entirely on plucking and supplementing, so her soul was already fragile; though she looked fine now, she had actually suffered internal injuries.

Her internal organs felt as painful as if they were burning.

It was not that Jiang Xun did not want to finish her off quickly, nor was it that he could not bear to kill her.

It was truly that Jiang Xun only had a Golden Core and relied entirely on Dharma Artifacts; in terms of speed, he was far slower than Jun Tianling.

As long as Jun Tianling did not attack him, but instead attacked the others one by one, everyone except Jiang Xun would die.

Although only Jiang Xun and Jun Tianling would remain in the end, and Jun Tianling might be killed or exhausted to death by Jiang Xun.

But Jiang Xun did not want Gu Qing and Liu Ruoyun to die either.

Jiang Xun did not make a move, and Jun Tianling, who had been knocked away by Lin Feng and landed on the throne after a backflip in the air, did not move either.

Clearly, both of them were very aware of this point.

"Let's negotiate."

Jiang Xun looked at Jun Tianling and said.

"I can let you take your people away."

Jun Tianling said directly, seeing through Jiang Xun's thoughts.

As long as Jun Tianling agreed to let them out, the Space Lockdown could open a gap for the three of them to leave, but it would immediately recover afterward, and Jiang Xun would no longer be able to enter.

The people inside would naturally be dead.

Jun Tianling also did not want her own soul to vanish, so she proposed this deal to Jiang Xun.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Xun looked back at Gu Qing and Liu Ruoyun, and felt reluctant to part with the Child of Luck Hua Bairui and the child of luck Lin Feng.

And there was also Long Qingxin, who had died on the ground.

He possessed a Soul Returning Pill; as long as he saved Long Qingxin, he could obtain things better than the Soul Returning Pill and also gain the favor of a beauty.

"You lecherous old man! If you save me, I will repay you!"

Upon hearing this, Tu Wan hurriedly shouted at Jiang Xun.

"Oh? With what will you repay me?"

Jiang Xun smiled upon hearing this.

"Anything you want!... Except for me, I can promise you anything else!"

Tu Wan heard there was hope and continued.

"She is not allowed."

Before Jiang Xun could speak, Jun Tianling shattered her fantasy.

"Ah? Why!"

Tu Wan looked at Jun Tianling with a blank expression upon hearing this.

"I want to leave this place and need a physical body; I find you quite suitable."

Jun Tianling lightly licked the corner of her mouth and smiled as she looked at Tu Wan.

Tu Wan was not bad-looking, her physical age was also very young, and at such a young age she was already at the Nascent Soul Early Stage, plus she practiced a Demon Art, making her extremely suitable for Jun Tianling to perform soul possession.

"Big sister! Big sister, I beg you!"

Tu Wan was nearly moved to tears upon hearing this: "After I get out, I will bring you as many women as you want! Just don't stare at me!"

"You, you, you, look at that one, that flower girl, she is also stunningly beautiful, and also, also..."

Tu Wan looked toward Gu Qing and Liu Ruoyun and was just about to speak, but seeing Jiang Xun's threatening gaze, she hurriedly shut her mouth.

She was terrified that Jiang Xun would stop caring about her.

Hearing Tu Wan call her name, Hua Bairui was also stunned, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

What does this have to do with me?

However, upon hearing Jun Tianling's goal, Jiang Xun subconsciously thought of the Wall Mirror Jade Pendant in his embrace.

Divine souls can enter and exit that place; perhaps Jun Tianling could also enter the Wall Mirror Jade Pendant.

But wouldn't it be a bit dangerous to keep this woman, Jun Tianling, by his side?

Furthermore, he did not know if it would harm that girl, Qin Miaoyin.

Although Jiang Xun thought this way, he could not have imagined that Jun Tianling's goal was not Tu Wan at all.

She said that only to make Jiang Xun lower his guard.

What she truly wanted to possess was Jiang Xun's body, which possessed the Natural Charm Bone!

Saying just now that she could let Jiang Xun take his people out was also to make Jiang Xun and the others lower their guard.

As long as Jiang Xun wanted to take people out, she would instantly seize Gu Qing or Liu Ruoyun to force Jiang Xun to let her perform soul possession.

"Make your choice quickly."

Jun Tianling ignored Tu Wan and looked at Jiang Xun, speaking coldly.

Just at this moment, a sudden change occurred.

A black-robed person behind Tu Wan lunged toward Jun Tianling, holding a sword in their hand.

The long sword transformed into a ten-meter giant sword and slashed directly down toward Jun Tianling!

Jun Tianling was unhurried, dodging to the side; she was blown away by the sword wind, used the force to fly into the air, and was just about to attack when another black-robed person flashed in front of her.

This was Tu Wan's other guard.

Holding a Black Blade, they slashed toward Jun Tianling's neck.

Both of these people were at the Nascent Soul Great Perfection.

In fact, they had long since stabilized their divine souls, but had not made a move until now.

It was only when they heard that Jun Tianling's goal was Tu Wan that they felt they could no longer endure it.

"Bang!"

A black long blade condensed in Jun Tianling's hand, identical to the black-robed person's weapon, and blocked their attack.

At the same time, she kicked out with her fair and slender long leg, sending the black-robed person flying.

Jun Tianling and the blade-wielding black-robed person landed at the same time.

"That old man! Hurry and attack! If you join forces with us, we can finish off this remnant soul!"

The black-robed person who had used the sword just now shouted at Jiang Xun.

"Miss Tu Wan is the Saintess of our Tianwu Sect; if you can help us rescue the Saintess, the Sect Master will not treat you unfairly!"

The blade-wielding black-robed person also looked at Jiang Xun and shouted.
