My Wife Is The Leader Of A Demonic Cult

98  Chapter 98: The Siege of Black Robes Leads to Chaos

"Xuanyi Guard!?"

Li Fuzhou's sleeve swept through the air, gathering all the arrows flying within three zhang around him, and then his brow furrowed.

The Xuanyi Guard was a knife that the Great Yan Emperor hung over the Great Yan Martial World, their fame so immense, it could not be disregarded or unheard of.

These were the characteristic Breaking Strength Flying Crossbows of the Xuanyi Guard, the arrowheads not only had deadly poison but also child-mother mysterious sun iron, specially designed to counteract the Qi Force of those within Jianghu.

The sight of those arrows shooting through the air and forcefully nailing halfway into the ground where they missed showed just how powerful their momentum was.

The arrows fell like rain, dense and without leaving the slightest gap.

"Whiz whiz whiz!" "Whiz whiz whiz!"

The arrow rain pouring down from the sky trembled the air itself; the experts present either dodged or used their Martial Arts, not a single one was injured in the slightest.

These arrows were naturally more than enough for ordinary martial artists, but for these First Grade Cultivation experts, they were slightly less effective.

Xi Jikui wasn't trying to kill these experts with the arrow rain but rather wanted to deplete the limited Inner Strength within their bodies.

"Since when did the Xuanyi Guard only resort to these petty tricks?"

Li Fuzhou crushed the approaching arrow rain and a cold smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"To deal with a bunch of rats that hide their heads and show their tails, indeed, extraordinary measures must be used."

As a voice rang out, the arrow rain suddenly ceased.

Xi Jikui slowly walked forward from the distance, followed closely by Zhang Shuang and Gan Yue, with dozens of Xuanyi Guard experts behind them, each holding a strong crossbow.

"Heavenly Kill Star! Xi Jikui!?"

Tian Cansou's brows tightened.

In Jianghu, Xi Jikui was infamous, not because of his father Xi Yuanjun, but his own ruthless methods and formidable strength. He destroyed not less than three or five Sects.

This person's temperament was gloomy and his methods vicious; among the Thirty-Six Heavenly Gang, he was particularly troublesome.

Not only that, but behind Xi Jikui were two other Great Heavenly Gang members, the lowest Cultivation of the Great Heavenly Gang being First Grade, a well-known fact in Jianghu. However, as Great Yan's national strength continued to rise steadily, the power of the Great Heavenly Gang was also quietly improving.

The Great Heavenly Gang seen now was not only at the First Grade Cultivation level; most had condensed the Human Flower, a few had the Earth Flower, and the top members of the Great Heavenly Gang had even reached the Heavenly Flower Realm.

Moreover, should any of the Great Heavenly Gang members fall, the Xuanyi Guard would immediately have new members of the Great Heavenly Gang to replace them. What did this imply?

It signified the Xuanyi Guard's terrifyingly strong reserves and unfathomable foundations.

"Didn't expect the Xuanyi Guard's Xi Jikui to come as well."

Ling Yuhua spoke softly, "This adds another variable."

Li Yue took a deep breath and nodded without speaking.

Theoretically, it was normal for the Xuanyi Guard experts to appear, but as the seal had already broken and was irreparable, the Xuanyi Guard still dispatched a top First Grade expert like Xi Jikui, which clearly indicated deeper plotting. n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

With more and more great masters appearing today, no one was assured of who could take the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence.

An Jing watched the three people who appeared. Although he did not recognize them, he knew from the aura they radiated that all three were First Grade experts, likely the Great Heavenly Gang of the Xuanyi Guard.

"So it's you."

Li Fuzhou glanced at Xi Jikui, "It would only be you who plays these despicable tricks. This is different from your father. He is quite the iron man."

"Speaking of my father, it reminded me,"

Xi Jikui, looking to be in his forties, was called a youngster by Li Fuzhou but didn't get angry. Instead, he smiled and said, "My father's birthday is coming up, and I have yet to prepare a birthday gift. I would like to ask Sect Master Li to do me a great favor."

Li Fuzhou sneered, "You want me to do you a great favor?"

The Xuanyi Guard and the Demon Sect had considerable enmity, especially Demon Sect Sect Master Li Fuzhou, who had deep-seated hatred towards the Xuanyi Guard.

Xi Jikui nodded, then with a serious expression said, "That's right, I would like to use Sect Master Li's head as a gift."

Xi Jikui's words were very calm, but they sent chills down one's spine, a coldness that seemed to rush from the soles of the feet straight to the heavens.

An Jing felt coldness overflowing all around him, his eyebrows unconsciously furrowing.

"Hahahaha."

Li Fuzhou, upon hearing this, laughed as if it were the funniest joke in the world.

Xi Jikui turned his head to look at Liu Qingshan, who was holding the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence, and said, "Before that, I would like to ask for Gang Leader Liu's help with a matter."

"Liu might not be able to help with that, Master Xi."

Liu Qingshan coughed lightly twice and smiled, "Helping others might earn me a meal, but helping Master Xi could cost me my head."

"Seems like Gang Leader Liu is not willing to hand over the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence?" asked Xi Jikui.

Liu Qingshan smiled without answering, remaining silent.

It was well-known in Jianghu that Xi Jikui was at the Heavenly Flower Realm, and if nothing unexpected happened, it would be difficult for him to surpass his father, Xi Yuanjun, in this lifetime. The Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence in front of him was a chance.

It is extremely rare for the student to surpass the master.

Most of the time, if the previous generation is powerful, the next generation would do well just to maintain that strength, let alone surpass it. Such is the cruel reality.

Xi Jikui nodded slightly, "Then there's nothing more to say."

Having said that, Xi Jikui stretched out both hands.

Under the moonlight, a cold light appeared in each hand. Upon closer inspection, they were two rings – in the night, they resembled moons hanging on his hands.

The Dragon and Phoenix Double Rings, Xi Yuanjun's famed weapon.

"Whoosh, whoosh!"

Xi Jikui's body leaped forward like a brisk wind sweeping across the land, and in an instant, he was right in front of Liu Qingshan.

So fast!

Liu Qingshan's eyebrows rose abruptly, and he quickly moved to dodge to the side.

The Dragon and Phoenix Double Rings were bizarre and domineering; they were a highly unusual type of weapon. In Jianghu, there were not many experts who practiced with ring weapons, which were not as common as knives, spears, swords, and clubs. But if one encountered a person who practiced with rings, they must be extremely cautious, for such a person was likely a master.

Xi Jikui's momentum was soaring, and his attacks were like tidal waves. Liu Qingshan, having already been in a tough fight and with much of his Inner Strength depleted, did not dare to clash head-on and naturally, could not match Xi Jikui.

Xikui's hands danced continuously with the Double Rings, as if untamed beasts were howling, with an astonishing momentum.

The Double Rings danced!

It seemed like a single move, yet it contained eighteen variations, each more deadly than the last.

Qingshan Palm Seal! Beng Mountain!

Liu Qingshan concentrated his Inner Strength in his left palm and struck out fiercely.

The Double Rings cut through the air like knives, effortlessly tearing through the handprint, and then relentlessly continued forward, slashing a bloody mark across Liu Qingshan's waist.

Then the Phoenix Ring turned, aiming for Liu Qingshan's right hand that held the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence.

"Since you want it so much, I might as well give it to you," Liu Qingshan said.

"Swoosh!"

No sooner had he spoken than done, Liu Qingshan tossed the object from his palm and quickly retreated backwards.

He knew very well that with so many masters around, holding the Heaven and Earth Spirit Essence was like holding a hot potato.

To be a man, the most important thing is rationality.

"A good opportunity!"

An Jing, who had been waiting for the right moment, had a glint of light in his eyes.
