Quite difficult?
Hearing what Chu Liang said, black question marks appeared on the heads of Luo Yao and Pu Shan.
Logically speaking, there is nothing wrong with this statement. The Earth Demon Envoys in the fifth realm have high cultivation and many methods. They have just experienced a short and dangerous battle.
But it felt inappropriate to say these words from Chu Liang's mouth...especially after he killed the Earth Demon instantly with one sword.
From the first time they met, Luo Yao and Pushan did not really regard Chu Liang as a person of the same level as them. No matter how polite he is to others, such a talented person must be proud in his heart.
Chu Liang is still in the third realm no matter how you say it. He is indeed outstanding at his age, but he cannot be compared with them.
Therefore, when the battle began, both of them subconsciously ignored the existence of Chu Liang and did not expect much help from this Shushan disciple.
When the two tried their best to allow the Earth Demon to escape, they thought the operation was about to fail. They didn't complain at all about Chu Liang's lack of contribution, because they knew from the beginning that he was a divine being. What could you expect him to do?
How natural this kind of neglect is, how strong the shock that Chu Liang brought to them after taking action!
Different from the previous Yun Chaoxian, when Yun Chaoxian saw Chu Liang kill the Tiger King instantly with Wanjian Jue, he had not seen Chu Liang before and only thought that he was a great master. But at this moment, they already have a relatively weak impression in their hearts, and if they are crushed again, the impact will be super doubled.
As a result, after you used such an earth-shattering sword technique to instantly kill the evil messenger, you said calmly, "It's quite difficult." This... what if it wasn't difficult? Will a sneeze scare him to death?
Chu Liang's action and this faint complaint made Pu Shan, the most talkative person, speechless for a long time.
But Chu Liang's words really came from his heart.
Because in his original idea, he didn't really want to take action himself. Although the famous red-cutting sword was already hot with shock, there was no reward for killing people. As long as the Disha envoy could die, he would happily give the credit to Luo Yao and Pushan.
With the two of them's cultivation and magical power, coupled with calculated and unintentional tactical sneak attacks, they are indeed enough to kill a fifth level person. It's a pity that this evil envoy had many tricks, but he still managed to escape, forcing Chu Liang to take action as a last resort.
That's why he finds it difficult.
The reason why he was reluctant to take action was because the other two people had already figured out his cultivation level before. The explosion of such a powerful force at this time can only mean that he has either hidden his cultivation before, or he is carrying a valuable treasure!
Even though Luo Yao and Monk Pushan were not people who would covet other people's treasures, Chu Liang had to be cautious even though others had no intention of doing so. Things in the world are ever-changing, and even if the news spreads, it may bring unnecessary danger to him.
But now that he has taken action, there is no point in thinking about it anymore.
Touching the corpse is important.
He lit a bone torch and flew towards the direction where the Earthshaman died, searching for it based on some vague impressions. It's a pity that in the fog, the Earth Demon exploded completely again. Even if the items on the body were not damaged, they didn't know where they were scattered. He walked around in circles several times without giving up, but only found a black jade slip, which seemed to record some kind of inheritance.
"Alas..." Chu Liang sighed sincerely again.
A fifth-level demon cultivator who has been operating in the Pluto Sect for many years is definitely a small mobile treasure. It would be a pity to lose everything like this.
Just when he was still looking for it, he heard a gust of wind behind him.
"Be careful!" Pushan's reminder sounded.
Chu Liang also turned around with his sword, but this time he raised not the famous red-cutting sword, but the Wuchen sword!
As expected, there was a sickling ghost behind him. While Chu Liang was looking for scattered items, he jumped out and wanted to make a shameless sneak attack.
Holding the Wuchen Sword in his hand, he slashed back the skeletal body of the sickling ghost with one sword movement, making a clanging sound!
"Ah——" Kamaki was slashed with a deep cut on his body, jumped far away, and roared.
And Chu Liang was surprised that this sickle ghost was so hard that even the Wuchen Sword couldn't cut through it. Of course, it might not be entirely Wuchen Sword’s problem…
With a flick of his wrist, he drew a double-talisman sword of ice and fire in an instant. He made a gesture with his left hand and pushed with his right hand, and the Wuchen Sword flew out in the air, and boom——
One sword finally shattered the sickle ghost.
A whole body of bones were scattered on the ground. Thanks to the sword not being so powerful, these bones were still easy to pick up.
The two people behind him saw each other and felt very strange.
Because this Wuchen Sword's blow is indeed powerful, but compared with the blow that instantly killed the Earth Demon just now, it is really much weaker.
Luo Yao could still remain aloof, but Pushan could no longer bear it and asked curiously: "Young Master Chu, why does the power of your sword energy fluctuate so high and low?"
"Haha." Chu Liang smiled and said, "I hate evil very much. I can't hold back my anger when I see bad people, and I will burst out with a little more power."
"I see." Pu Shan smiled and nodded: "I understand."
Naturally, what he understood was not the reason for the change in the power of Chu Liang's sword energy.
Rather, when a person makes up an obvious lie to prevaricate you, you should stop asking.
…
In the waiting circle.
Nan Lu Jie Yin looked at the bone torch in his hand. The second one was already partially burned. It stands to reason that the three teams that went out for hunting should all be back.
But now only two have returned.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw a figure flash out of the mist, and a soul-binding user with a "fifty-eight" sign hanging on his waist staggered back, seemingly out of breath.
"What's wrong?" Nan Lu led Huo Ran to stand up and asked aloud.
"Receive the envoy!" Fifty-eight bowed his head and said: "The Disha envoy... The Disha envoy has been killed!"
"What?" Nan Lu Jieyin frowned.
"We were hunting Kamaki, and suddenly a figure also wearing black robes appeared in the mist. The man was extremely cultivated, and he severely injured the Earth Demon with a single sword technique! We ran away, and my subordinates searched for a long time before finally finding us. Come back!" Fifty-Eight shouted loudly.
"You came back by yourself?" Nan Lu asked in a deep voice.
"Yes!" Fifty-eight responded.
"You're lying!" Nanlu Jieyin shouted, "This fog is full of ghosts. As long as you are alone, you will still be entangled even if you have a bone torch! How can you walk back by yourself?!"
"I don't dare!" Fifty-eight was trembling and immediately defended: "There are indeed many ghosts in the fog, but my subordinates relied on their enthusiasm and will to serve the sect to withstand the temptation of all the ghosts and persist. Come back!"
Nan Lu Jie Yin fell into deep thought.
In fact, he didn't conclude that Fifty-eight was lying just now, but that he was deceiving him. After all, the whole team died and he was the only one to come back, which was really suspicious. If he really has something up his sleeve, this scare might reveal something about him.
But Fifty-Eight immediately defended loudly, which alleviated some of the suspicions of the southern route. After all, he also knew in his heart that this was only the beginning of the Misty Valley. The ghost was not strong enough and it was possible to return to the Golden Core realm.
Just as he was thinking about it, he saw another figure walking back from the mist, this time it was sixty.
"Sir, the Envoy!" Sixty glanced at Fifty-eight before saying, "Someone attacked and killed the Earthly Envoy in the mist. His subordinates got separated from the same team, and then they managed to find him back..."
"Huh?" Nanlu Jieyin stared at Liu Shi, "Did you see the Earthly Demon Lord die?"
"Yes... my subordinates fled slowly. In the end, they turned around and fled after seeing the Earth Demon envoy die from a sword technique." Sixty responded.
Nanlu Jingyin's eyes wandered between "fifty-eight" and "sixty". What these two people said seemed to be confirmed.
However, the possibility of collusion cannot be ruled out.
Just as he was thinking about it, he heard a burst of shouting coming from outside the fog. The shouting came first, and then a figure came out. The person who came had a "fifty-nine" sign hanging on his body.
"Your Majesty the Envoy..." As soon as Wujiu came back, he threw himself on the ground, with a cry in his voice, "My subordinates almost lost sight of you! Just now, a man in black suddenly came out and killed the evil spirit. Envoy, we are all running away! There are ghosts and ghosts in the mist along the way, so this journey is really difficult!"
again……
Nanlu Jieying looked at the three of them, and the doubts in his heart were completely dispelled. One person lies, two people lie, how can three people lie together?
It seems that someone probably ambushed and killed the earthly evil envoy in the fog, but who is this person and what is his purpose...
The peak of his eyebrows lingered for a long time.
But the journey still had to continue. After a long time, Nanlu received an order: "The three of you return to the team first, and we will continue to set off. We will go out hunting later, and you will follow the other Disha envoy teams."
The three Soul Holders who had "luckily escaped" and were "still in shock" returned to the end of the team.
Luo Yao and Pu Shan looked at Chu Liang with a hint of approval in their eyes.
Because it was Chu Liang who had just stopped them and said that if the three of them went back like this and said that only one of the Earth Demons with the highest level of cultivation died in the team, it would inevitably arouse suspicion and it might be inconvenient for them to do things later.
It's better to return to the team separately.
In this way, it is equivalent to dividing a testimony into three parts. The speeches of the three people can confirm each other again and again, making it easier to win people's trust.
This set of mutually confirming operations really dispelled Nanlu Jieyin's doubts about them and allowed them to continue to participate in the follow-up actions.
Exchange gold and water!
And the way he looked exhausted and weak was not an act at all, but he really took the risk and walked back out of the fog alone!
