Chapter 423
The one who spoke was Song Qingming, who had been standing on the side without saying a word.
After the purple-clothed woman and the others stopped Song Qingming and the others, their attention was focused on the main target, Xu Ziyan and her sister, at first, and they didn't pay much attention to Song Qingming, who was traveling with them.
At this moment, after hearing Song Qingming say this, everyone who was still in a stalemate turned their eyes to him, especially the purple-clothed woman. When she discovered that Song Qingming was also a ninth-layer Foundation Establishment cultivator, her face suddenly became a bit ugly.
Seeing that the other party was indeed aiming at the spiritual objects on Xu Ziyan and the two, Song Qingming, although he also knew that it would be difficult for these people to give up without reaching their goal today, still persuaded them earnestly, and by the way, displayed his cultivation to see if he could make the other party retreat in the face of difficulties.
Although the other party has five people, there are only two late Foundation Establishment cultivators. Song Qingming and Xu Ziyan's cultivation has reached the peak of Foundation Establishment. If they really fight, they may not necessarily take much advantage.
"This fellow Daoist, you shouldn't have come with them, right? We are only aiming at the two of them today, and it has nothing to do with others. As long as you don't meddle in other people's business, we can make friends. You can leave now, what do you think!"
Facing the purple-clothed woman's inducement, Song Qingming waved his hand calmly and said softly:
"What you said is right. I really don't want to meddle in other people's business. As long as you let go and let us pass, everyone will be safe. What business do I have to meddle in?"
"I'm afraid that you won't listen to persuasion and insist on blocking the way, which makes me a bit embarrassed. Although I didn't come with them, I am indeed an acquaintance, so it's really not easy to stand by and watch!"
Seeing Song Qingming holding a black-backed silver knife in his hand while speaking, intending to advance and retreat with them, Xu Ziyan and the blue-clothed woman, whose faces had been a bit nervous, instantly relaxed.
Before they left from the teleportation array, they had already felt that they seemed to be being watched.
When Xu Ziyan saw Song Qingming who was teleported with them, she immediately took the initiative to find him and invited him to travel together. I didn't expect that this intentional move would play a key role now.
Although Xu Ziyan had some kindness to Song Qingming back then, this was many years ago. Although the cultivation world also advocates chivalry, many times for the sake of some important cultivation resources and their own lives, there are many villains who betray friends and brothers.
At this moment, facing this critical situation, if Song Qingming really chose to ignore them and leave directly, Xu Ziyan would actually have nothing to say.
After all, Song Qingming is now a cultivator whose cultivation is not inferior to her own. It is indeed not an easy thing for him to risk his own life to repay his kindness for a Foundation Establishment cultivator.
"Good, good, good! You are looking for death yourself, so don't blame us."
After the purple-clothed woman made a gesture, she shook a black flag in her hand and rushed towards Xu Ziyan, and the other four also followed, each using their supernatural powers, and immediately killed Song Qingming and the blue-clothed woman.
Seeing this, Song Qingming didn't keep as low-key as before, and directly controlled the black-backed silver knife in his hand to stop three of them, leaving only a middle-aged man with the lowest cultivation to Xu Ziyan's junior sister.
Except for the purple-clothed woman who was about the same cultivation as Xu Ziyan, among the other four, the one with the highest cultivation was a withered old man at the seventh layer of Foundation Establishment.
Although this person didn't have any powerful attack magic tools on him, he was very good at driving a strange kind of golden spirit insect. Although this kind of spirit insect is not big, it is numerous, and each one is extremely cruel and fearless of death. No matter how many Song Qingming killed, a large wave would soon rush towards him again.
Song Qingming didn't expect that this old man, who didn't look very impressive, would have the insect-driving technique, which is very rare in the cultivation world.
The other two who assisted the old man in attacking Song Qingming were both sixth-layer Foundation Establishment cultivators. These two people's supernatural powers were relatively ordinary, and together they barely had the ability to deal with a late Foundation Establishment cultivator.
After Song Qingming fought them for dozens of rounds alone, except for the old man's spirit insects which were a bit threatening to him, he hadn't felt any other danger for the time being, and gradually gained some upper hand.
Besides Song Qingming's battlefield, the opponent fighting Xu Ziyan's junior sister also had very ordinary supernatural powers. Although her junior sister couldn't win in a short time, she would definitely gain the upper hand if they continued to fight.
Only on Xu Ziyan's side, facing the strong attack of the purple-clothed woman, she soon felt great pressure. Although Xu Ziyan's cultivation and supernatural powers were not as good as core disciples of the Xiaoyao Sect like Li Yungong, she was indeed much more powerful than ordinary cultivators of the same level.
However, she didn't expect that the purple-clothed woman she was fighting against had stronger methods and supernatural powers than her, and soon she was suppressed by the other party's attack.
It is very difficult to encounter cultivators with such strength among loose cultivators. This time, Xu Ziyan also met an expert, and she couldn't help but secretly call out in her heart, so she could only bite her teeth and hold on while fighting and retreating.
The strategy of the purple-clothed woman's side is very simple, which is that the others first drag Song Qingming and the two, and she, who is the strongest, first solves Xu Ziyan alone. As long as she takes down her opponent first, and then turns back to deal with Song Qingming and the two together, it will be much simpler.
However, what the purple-clothed woman didn't expect was that before she won on her side, a change that surprised her soon appeared on the battlefield where Song Qingming was besieged.
Seeing that the withered old man's spirit insects were indeed difficult to deal with, Song Qingming took advantage of the gap when the other party was driving the spirit insects, used his wind-controlling boots to quickly increase his speed to approach him, and used the Bi Shui Bell hidden on his body to cover him directly inside.
After trapping the old man who drove the spirit insects with the Bi Shui Bell, Song Qingming finally freed his hand to deal with the two opponents who had been pestering him.
Whether it was the magic tools or the cultivation supernatural powers of these two people, they were very ordinary. Under Song Qingming's sharp attack, one of them soon lost and died under his black-backed silver knife.
The other person saw that the situation was not good and ran towards the purple-clothed woman to seek help. However, Song Qingming didn't give him this opportunity. Just when he thought he was about to get out of danger, a transparent thorn pierced directly through his chest from behind.
After solving these two people, Song Qingming raised his hand again and took the initiative to open the Bi Shui Bell, releasing the withered old man from inside.
This time, without the assistance of the two helpers, the spirit insects alone could no longer completely contain Song Qingming. Not long after, the withered old man was beheaded by Song Qingming, and the spirit insects he had cultivated for many years suddenly became masterless and flew around in the air.
