Chapter 542 - Impending Death

Chapter 542 Impending Death
A hint of joy came into Tang Folei’s eyes, and he said,
That’s great, but I need your help.


How do we help you?
Han Yangjian still maintained a keen vigilance.
Tang Folei analyzed very carefully,
Qi Qingshan is so formidable that I have no opportunity to kill him. Therefore, I need a poison that can fatally undermine the experts at the Martial Emperor Realm and mix it with Qi Qingshan’s wine to markedly damage his strength. This way, either I or any of you can deal with him easily. As for Li Jianyi, I can kill him if I catch him unprepared. However, various masters of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect who are loyal to Li Jianyi need to be eliminated as soon as possible.

His words dispelled Han Yangjian’s last doubts.
He was certain that the man in front of him was indeed ambitious and a careerist who would betray his sect for his own benefit.
Such a person could be made use of.
Han Yangjian took out an aquamarine jade bottle and threw it to Tang Folei. He said,
It contains Dark Meridian-cutting Elixirs. As long as an expert at the Martial Emperor Realm drinks the wine with one pill mixed in it, he’ll lose all his strength in fifteen minutes… You know what to do next, right?

Tang Folei nodded and put the jade bottle away. Then, he turned around and left.

I’ll come to see you with Li Jianyi’s and Qi Qingshan’s heads tonight at midnight, in front of the Mountain-protecting Formation. I hope you cooperate with me to break through the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect’s defenses, Brother Han. From then on, I’ll be willing to be your dog and be at your disposal…

Tang Folei moved as fast as lightning and disappeared into the darkness in the distance.
There was a moment of silence in the tent.
Fang Xiao’an said with unwillingness,
Brother Han, do you really believe in this person?

Han Yangjian sneered and said,
Whether his words are true or not, we will figure out at midnight.


If it is a trap…


Humph, although Qi Qingshan is powerful, he won’t be able to catch up if we four brothers escape. Why should we be afraid of him?
Han Yangjian burst out laughing,
Well, Director Fang, don’t be suspicious. Do you have other ideas? Don’t you want me to take control of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect?


Of… Of course I do.
Fang Xiao’an could only stop talking.
He did want to see Han Yangjian conquering the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect.
In addition, he hoped that Han Yangjian could kill all the disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect at one go, rather than only kill Qi Qingshan and Li Jianyi as Tang Folei said. It would be unwise of him to let the other 10,000 people off and force them to act as slaves, for Fang Xiao’an clearly knew about the tenacity and potential of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect members. As long as they were alive, they would rise sooner or later.
Unfortunately, Han Yangjian had been completely convinced by Tang Folei, and he wouldn’t listen no matter how eagerly they tried to persuade him.
He hoped that the appointment that night would not be a trap.
To say the least, once Qi Qingshan, Li Jianyi, and some of their trusted subordinates were killed, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect would be basically destroyed. Provided that he managed the Tranquility Academy well, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect would definitely be unable to oppose the Tranquility Academy after going through such a catastrophe. In the future, he could take an opportunity to erase it completely from the Northern Region.
Once he thought of this, Fang Xiao’an felt relieved again.
He ordered people to gather information in secret, preparing to draw up a list of the core members of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. By then, they could kill them all together with Li Jianyi and Qi Qingshan, which could weaken the strength and potential of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect to a certain extent, directly strangling the hope of its rise in the future.

Phew, phew…
Ding Hao gasped fiercely.
He was covered with scars.
Of course, what was even more critical was the saber plunged in his chest.
It was the devil saber.
In the past half a day, Ding Hao almost exerted all his strength to fight against his illusion, but they eventually broke even, ending covered in blood. Ding Hao had tried countless times to find and take advantage of his own weaknesses, but each time he flogged a dead horse.
At the last moment of the battle, both of them were like spent arrows.
At the most critical moment, Ding Hao had suddenly exposed a weakness carelessly, while the illusory Ding Hao seized the opportunity and stabbed him in the chest.
The wound had pierced the heart.
Generally speaking, his heart would have been shattered by the saber and he couldn’t survive.
Even the illusory Ding Hao was stunned at this moment. It seemed that he didn’t expect that he would succeed this way at the end of such an arduous struggle.
Ding Hao looked down at the long saber inserted in his chest with heavy-laden eyes and immediately fell to the ground.
Thump!
The slender body produced a huge cloud of smoke and dust with its fall.
Then, his blood silently flowed out of the wound.
In the next moment, Ding Hao’s body temperature began to plummet. After his limbs twitched a few times, he stopped breathing and became stiff.
Was he dead?
In the distance, Evil Moon, Ji Yingqi, and Adorable were all stunned.
How… did he suddenly… get stabbed?

Brother Ding…
Ji Yingqi could not help exclaiming.
However, right after Ding Hao fell to the ground, something in the illusion seemed to have been all of a sudden. The strange space was twisted by a magical force and some weird changes were manifested. The illusory Ding Hao, the illusory Evil Moon, the illusory Adorable and the illusory Ji Yingqi broke apart and disappeared like bubbles.
The devil saber that was inserted in Ding Hao’s chest also disappeared, dissipating in the air like a puff of smoke.
However, the startling wound was still bleeding.

Meow?
Evil Moon was fighting fiercely moments before, but then he looked around since his opponent disappeared in a flash. He was taken aback after seeing Ding Hao lying on the ground. He rushed over to take a look at Ding Hao and seemingly found something after sniffing for a while. He burst into laughter as he caught sight of Ding Hao’s flowing blood,
Meow, hahaha. Finally, I have a chance to drink Little Chap Ding’s blood. It a great tonic. I’ve been thinking about it for so long. Meow, haha…

After he finished speaking, he stuck out his tongue and started lapping, regardless of the blood attached to his nose and beard.

Hey, little dolphin, come here. Don’t waste it. Ding Hao’s blood is absolutely beneficial. You cannot imagine how many magic medicines and elixirs he has taken and how many adventures he has experienced…
While gobbling up Ding Hao’s blood, he didn’t forget to call the little dolphin, his friend.

Hey ga-ga!
Fortunately, the little dolphin, adhering to moral principles, raised its front fin to show disdain to the fat cat.

How can you do this? Brother Ding treats you so well. You actually…
Ji Yingqi struggled madly but failed to rush out of the inscription array. Although she was usually calm, she panicked when she saw the blood pool that was expanding on the ground. She said with tears running all over her pretty little face,
Brother Ding, Brother Ding, you…


Hey, beautiful girl, did you fall in love with Ding Hao? Why are you so worried…?
The fat cat looked more and more like Wang Juefeng, the cynical man, and said with a chuckle,
If that’s the case, you have to be ready for competition. You may be unaware that this guy is a playboy, who has countless girlfriends, including Li Yiruo, the top beauty of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, Xie Jieyu, the Phoenix who is famous in Snow Province, Ximen Qianxue, Zhuo Ziyan and Murong Shengnan who are gentle and lovely.

All of a sudden, someone reached out a hand and grabbed the cat’s neck.

Hey? Let me finish what I have to say!
Evil Moon struggled with his tail wagging.
Ding Hao, who was already dead, suddenly stood up from the blood pool. He grabbed a piece of fur behind the fat cat’s head and directly plucked it off. He put on a long face and flicked the cat with his finger a few times,
You’re talking nonsense. What a heartless cat you are…


Meow, ah, my head hurts…
Evil Moon was struggling with his four feet wildly and said aggrievedly,
I knew you were playing dead. I just took the opportunity to drink your blood, why make such a fuss? Ah, I see. Did you also take a fancy to this little girl? That’s why you don’t want me to tell her about your romances for fear that you’ll lose it all.


You’re talking nonsense!
Ding Hao was so angry that he raised his hand to flick the cat with his finger.
After throwing that heartless fat cat aside, Ding Hao looked down at the scar on his chest and could not help sucking in a breath.
It was a terrifying wound that had almost pierced through his body.
He showed his teeth, then he slowly ran his Qi and regulated his breath to heal the wound.
Thanks to his amazing physical resilience, Ding Hao healed all the scars left by the previous battle in just a moment, including the shocking wound on his chest. He looked just like before.

Brother Ding…
Ji Yingqi cried out in surprise.

Don’t worry, Yingqi. I’m fine.
Ding Hao removed the small inscription array and helped the girl up; she was crying with joy.
After those days of treatment, Ji Yingqi had recovered a lot. Her thin and weak body gradually gained mass. Moreover, her face was ruddy and looked more and more delicate. She seemed to have changed completely, becoming extremely beautiful. Since she was born in the first well-known family from the Jade province, she had developed a noble temperament form a young age, which made her look like a cold goddess with a unique disposition and a striking appearance.

Brother Ding, I thought you indeed had…

Ji Yingqi couldn’t help but throw herself into Ding Hao’s arms, hardly recovering from the recent shock.

Meow, haha, little girl, you truly fell in love with Ding Hao. But it’s not surprising since this guy is handsome and is good at martial arts. That is why he could confuse those naive girls easily…
What Evil Moon said displeased Ding Hao even more. He spoke while he lapped the blood on the ground in secret.
Being a Saintly Being of Saber and Sword, he had experienced many adventures and already reached the Primordial Realm, so that his physical condition had changed. His blood, containing unimaginable energy, was red with faint gold, which was comparable to some magic treasures and precious herbs. How could Evil Moon, such a greedy cat, be willing to give it up?

You fat cat…

Ding Hao felt amused, although he was angry at the same time.
