Chapter 82: Seeing Lin Qingwan Again

"You're quite ruthless with your strikes."

Jiang Xun looked at Tu Wan, who was covered in blood from head to toe, her face twisted in pain as blood streamed down, and said to Jun Tianling in his heart.

"If I weren't ruthless, you would have already become a hedgehog."

Jun Tianling said coldly.

"Withdraw your Domain and Dharma Image." Jiang Xun turned his head and shouted at Tu Nan.

Tu Nan immediately complied, and the surroundings returned to their original clear state.

Zhong Lingqing also withdrew her Dharma Image, but she kept a part of it, using vines to bind Tu Nan tightly, not daring to loosen them at all.

At the same time, the vines were continuously absorbing Tu Nan's internal energy; no matter how powerful a person is, they are nothing to fear once they lose their internal energy.

As the Domain vanished, Tu Wan clutched her own neck, grabbing onto Jiang Xun's blade as she knelt on the ground, blood flowing down her neck onto the ground and then trailing into the lake.

She opened her mouth as if to say something, but could not get the words out.

"Damn you, pull the sword out and let me eat a pill to recover, otherwise I'm really going to die! Will you be able to run away then?"

Tu Wan had no choice but to use telepathic transmission to Jiang Xun.

Hearing this, Jiang Xun pulled the Liu Hong Sword out from Tu Wan's neck.

Although this made the pain worse, Tu Wan hurriedly took out a pill and swallowed it, then began to circulate her energy, and the blood that had been gushing from her neck began to gradually stop.

"Go bring Lin Qingwan here, otherwise we'll go down together."

Jiang Xun said as he placed the Liu Hong Sword back against Tu Wan's neck.

Tu Wan was now completely powerless to resist and could only focus entirely on recovering from her injuries; if she delayed even a little, she would bleed to death.

Tu Nan looked at Zhong Lingqing upon hearing this.

Zhong Lingqing's vines were restricting her Spirit Power, and she was unable to move at this moment.

"Let her go."

Jiang Xun said, looking at Zhong Lingqing.

"Are you sure? I think now is a good opportunity to kill her."

Zhong Lingqing frowned and said.

"If we kill her, there's still Tu Mo. My goal is only to take Lin Qingwan away. If she dies, the chances of taking Lin Qingwan away won't be high anymore. Let her go."

Jiang Xun shook his head and said.

"..." Zhong Lingqing could only nod and release Tu Nan.

Tu Nan did not waste any time and immediately used Shift Position to disappear in front of them.

"Open your mouth." After Tu Nan left, Jiang Xun took out a pill and held it up to Tu Wan's mouth.

"What is this?" Tu Wan frowned and asked via telepathic transmission.

"Superior Dahuan Pill." After Jiang Xun finished speaking, he did not give Tu Wan a chance to ask further, and forcibly shoved the Superior Dahuan Pill into her mouth.

Under Tu Wan's stimulation, the Superior Dahuan Pill immediately took effect; the wound on her neck began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye, quickly stopping the bleeding, and the wound on her neck healed completely.

The face that had turned pale from excessive blood loss also began to regain its color.

【Ding, Superior Dahuan Pill gifted successfully!】

【Obtained: Superior Dahuan Pill x10!】

"You want to kill me one moment and save me the next, you really are speechless."

Feeling her injuries recover, Tu Wan spoke up.

"I never intended to kill you in the first place, I just came to ask you for someone. After all, I saved your life back at the Void Sect. I thought you would agree, who knew you were so ungrateful."

Jiang Xun said this, but the Liu Hong Sword remained at Tu Wan's neck and was not taken down.

Heaven knows when Tu Nan will return.

"..." Tu Wan did not speak.

"Besides, the Soul Returning Pill really could have saved your A Bao, I wasn't lying to you. The reason I didn't save your A Bao back then was because you are from the Tianwu Sect. If I had saved A Bao, what would those sect disciples think? And just now, you suddenly had your aunt make a move, so what could I do?"

Jiang Xun shrugged helplessly and said.

"A Bao's severed arm has already been burned by me... now there's nothing left." Tu Wan curled her lips.

"Oh, so you felt that since you no longer have a use for the Soul Returning Pill, you had to kill me?"

"Who told you to make me fly so far..."

"Just because of that?"

Jiang Xun was speechless upon hearing this.

"She even threatened me, not letting me leave."

Tu Wan pointed at Zhong Lingqing and said.

"Are you stupid? Even if A Bao doesn't need the Soul Returning Pill, you're trading a Foundation Establishment cultivator for a Soul Returning Pill, how could that be a bad deal?"

"Furthermore, the person and the pill were both mine to begin with."

Jiang Xun slapped Tu Wan on the forehead.

"Alright, alright, alright!" Tu Wan glared at Jiang Xun: "You're so long-winded. Neither of you is hurt, and my aunt will bring Lin Qingwan here soon. You already slashed me with a sword, and I almost died, can't we just call it even?"

"When my aunt comes later, you take the person, leave the Soul Returning Pill, and get out!"

"Still want the Soul Returning Pill? It's long gone."

Jiang Xun spread his hands, revealing the sticky, crushed Soul Returning Pill in his palm.

Tu Wan's eyes widened at the sight.

"Your aunt suddenly rushed up just now, I was startled, and my hand exerted force involuntarily. This is all your fault."

Jiang Xun rinsed his hand in the lake and laughed.

"Hey!"

Tu Wan and Zhong Lingqing both hurriedly tried to stop Jiang Xun, but it was already too late.

"What for?"

Jiang Xun looked at the two of them and asked in confusion.

"That is a Soul Returning Pill! Even if it's crushed into dregs, its other effects are still immense!" Zhong Lingqing said with a look of regret, watching the Soul Returning Pill as it flowed into the distance, mixed with Tu Wan's blood along the lake.

"A Superior Dahuan Pill, that settles it for Lin Qingwan."

Jiang Xun waved his hand and smiled.

Upon hearing this, Tu Wan wished she could bite Jiang Xun to death; who was it that inflicted these wounds? Wasn't it you!

"Don't just focus on teasing women; watch out for that Tu Nan's spider. Once the spider crawls onto your body, Tu Nan will take your life in an instant."

Jun Tianling reminded him.

"What's up with you today, helping me at every turn? Don't tell me you've taken a fancy to this young master?" Jiang Xun continued to tease Jun Tianling with his words, while releasing his Spirit Power to carefully scan the five-meter radius around him.

"Don't flatter yourself." Jun Tianling gave a cold snort: "Although you are glib-tongued and love to take advantage of others, you have truly taken many risks to help me find Tang Ying, so consider this my thanks to you."

"The Demon Venerable is wise," Jiang Xun laughed.

"Tch."

Jun Tianling then stopped speaking.

But she was very puzzled in her heart; she was clearly acting as an Artifact Spirit for the first time, using an Artifact Spirit's identity to control a sword for the first time, so how could she be so handy at it?

It felt... as if the entire sword were her own hands and feet; this feeling was truly strange.

A moment later, Tu Nan appeared once again before Jiang Xun and Zhong Lingqing, holding a woman by the collar; it was none other than Lin Qingwan.

Jiang Xun also pressed the Liu Hong Sword against Tu Wan's neck once more.

"Qingwan, long time no see."

Jiang Xun looked at Lin Qingwan and smiled.

"Grand... Grandmaster..."

Lin Qingwan looked at Jiang Xun, feeling very guilty as well.

She never imagined that even after she had hidden away at the Tianwu Sect, Jiang Xun would still be able to track her down...

"Can you give the Saintess to me now?"

Tu Nan gripped Lin Qingwan's collar tightly and looked at Jiang Xun; she wanted to use Lin Qingwan as leverage.

In her view, since Jiang Xun dared to take risks for this woman, this woman must be very important to him, right?
