Chapter 60: Chapter 47 How about Killing? Kneel Down! (4000 words merged into one)_2
"Six Gates has such a prodigy?"
Chu Zhuo was provoked to True Fire, retreating backwards as Crimson Flames converged in his palm and two strangely-shaped red curved blades appeared out of thin air.
"Having forced me to use my Martial Spirit, you should indeed be proud."
Chu Zhuo’s twin blades sliced diagonally, and a surge of Crimson Flames roared.
Lin Jingzhu attempted to block it with his Black Stick, but his reaction was half a beat too slow, the Crimson Flame curved blade chopped his left arm, melting the Ice Armor and leaving a deep, bone-exposing mark on his fair skin!
The blade strikes were dense like rain, shattered ice flying, Black Ice Armor quickly melting, mist filled the air.
Being a fifth-grade Martial Artist, after using his Martial Spirit, Lin Jingzhu instantly fell into a disadvantage.
Although still struggling hard, defeat was only a matter of time.
...
Amidst the ruins, only the table in front of Chen Mo remained intact.
He poured himself a drink and said, "Brother Shangguan, it seems we are truly going to lose this time."
Shangguan Yunfei nodded and said, "The opponent is, after all, a veteran fifth-grade, to have fought to this extent is already commendable; looks like he can hold out for at most an incense stick’s time."
Chen Mo puzzledly said, "Then why don’t you help?"
Shangguan Yunfei spread his hands and said, "I can’t even defeat Lin Jingzhu, going up would be courting death. Besides, with Mr. Chen here, it’s not my turn to step in." ƒгeewebnovёl.com
Chen Mo frowned, "What does this have to do with me?"
Shangguan Yunfei seriously said, "You also got involved in the street fight, and that old man is from your Sky Scale Guard, how is this unrelated?"
"Mr. Chen, as the host, the case hasn’t been broken yet, and Lin Catcher’s already seriously injured... When Her Majesty the Empress accounts for responsibilities, it could be pushed onto this humble officer."
Chen Mo: "..."
He glanced up and down at Shangguan Yunfei, "You seem quite honest..."
Shangguan Yunfei smiled broadly, "You see people clearly, sir, I am indeed famously honest."
Chen Mo, tired of this animal, drank the wine in his cup in one gulp.
...
Bang!
Chu Zhuo kicked Lin Jingzhu, sending her flying.
Lin Jingzhu’s feet created two ravines on the ground as she barely steadied herself, Black Ice Armor in tatters, her arms and legs showing delicate skin marked with blood.
Her eyes remained calm as a lake.
The Nine Revolutions Ice Soul Technique operated, ensuring absolute calmness even at the brink of life and death.
"Even if I use that move, it’s not necessarily going to turn the situation around, the Martial Spirit of the Pure Yang Realm is too troublesome..."
Chu Zhuo did not plan to give her a chance to breathe, flashing forward as the curved blade descended from midair!
Roar!
A deafening roar!
Chu Zhuo’s spirit trembled, his movements froze involuntarily, a shadow flickering by the corner of his eye, seeming to have antlers, snake scales, eagle claws...
Before he could see clearly what it was, intense pain struck, and he was smashed through a wall flying out into the vast curtain of rain!
Bang!
Chu Zhuo crashed onto the street, a huge gash split open across his waist, revealing ghastly white bones, gushing blood flowing and mingling with the bricks below, quickly diluted by the rain.
He blankly raised his head, only to see Chen Mo standing tall, holding a wine bottle in his left and a long blade in his right, the blade like jade, covered with shattered ice patterns, issuing a series of clanging sounds.
Wind and rain whipped around his black hair, conveying an indescribable wildness!
"What kind of Sword Technique is this?"
Chu Zhuo couldn’t believe it.
The power of that one strike gave him a chilling sensation, as if he would be chopped in half!
A mere Sixth-rank Martial Artist, actually threatened his life!
"Presumptuous!"
Clang—
Clang—
Seeing the situation turn sour, two Purple-clothed Guards coldly glanced at each other, drew their long blades, and swooped in.
"Sleeve Green Dragon compresses True Yuan, burst out with full force, a normal Sixth-rank slicing once could probably drain the True Yuan."
"But my True Yuan is nearly endless, if I blend the Azure Dragon Saber Intent into the Blazing Eight Slashes, stacking the saber force, escalating layer by layer, bringing out the power to its peak... what then?"
Chen Mo maneuvered his steps, intercepting moves while pondering, a faint realization hovering in his mind.
Merging the two Martial Arts was not as simple as imagined.
Different paths of True Yuan circulation clashed like two colliding rivers, tearing his channels instantly, which were then rapidly repaired by Vitality Essence.
Through repeated attempts, he seemed to find a viable path...
The two Purple-clothed Guards found something odd.
His sword techniques chaotic, True Yuan dissipated, as if he had barely handled a blade.
"Probably can only use that one move, once True Yuan is drained, he’d hardly continue."
"End this quickly!"
The two exchanged a glance, one aiming for the head, the other for the waist, as the blade wind fiercely cut deep.
However, what welcomed them was a dazzling blade light!
Roar!
Against the dim sky, a giant azure dragon roared forth, black flames surging between its scales, swallowing the two men in an instant!
...
Not far away, inside a black sedan, two people sat opposite each other.
A small stove was set up on the table between them, the air permeated with a light fragrance of tea.
"Young Master, is a mere Sky Scale Guard Guard Hundred Households worth your elaborate efforts?"
A young master in light blue silk clothing held a White Jade tea pot, pouring tea into a cup.
Chu Heng leaned back on the soft chair, his narrow eyes slightly squinting, "Chu Zhuo’s of little use, aged, lacking capability, probably will retire in a few years... but using him for now is sufficient."
"I cannot show myself, make sure he’s securely detained, and it’s alright to give him some benefits."
Now that the demon murder case had reached the Eastern Royal Palace, the Empress herself appointed Chen Mo as the case handler.
This instilled an inexplicable sense of crisis in Chu Heng’s heart.
To grasp Chen Mo’s movements, it was essential to plant several informants within the Sky Scale Guard, and with Chu Zhuo bearing a poor relationship and lacking background, he was the perfect candidate to win over.
