Because her immortal energy had not yet recovered, the Ben Lei Sword in her hand felt heavy and substantial.
Looking at the Ben Lei Sword, Lei Qianjiao’s eyes grew unfocused.
But her feet began to move involuntarily, and she stopped in front of Liu Qingbo.
Liu Qingbo trembled all over, looking at Lei Qianjiao with great fear, and said,
“Miss Lei, please spare me. I know I shouldn’t have offended you. It’s my fault, all my fault.”
“You are a woman, your hands shouldn’t be stained with blood. So please stop, please stop…”
Lei Qianjiao shifted her gaze to Liu Qingbo, but her beautiful eyes seemed to lack brilliance.
She said softly, “Do you truly know your mistake?”
Upon hearing this, Liu Qingbo immediately felt he had a chance and quickly nodded, saying,
“I know, I know. I was wrong, I made a grave mistake…”
He was about to deliver a profound self-criticism to Lei Qianjiao.
But at that moment, his body trembled violently, and his eyes widened in shock.
Right at his left chest, the Ben Lei Sword had been thrust in resolutely.
As the blade twisted violently, it completely destroyed his heart!
Lei Qianjiao said indifferently, “It’s good that you know you were wrong. Then be careful in your next life.”
As her words fell, Lei Qianjiao pulled out the Ben Lei Sword, and a stream of blood immediately spurted from Liu Qingbo’s chest.
Liu Qingbo looked at Lei Qianjiao in disbelief, then his neck snapped, and he breathed his last.
Seeing this, Wu Tian also quietly breathed a sigh of relief, then casually dispersed a wisp of lightning he had gathered in his hand.
“Here you go.” Lei Qianjiao handed the Ben Lei Sword to Wu Tian.
Wu Tian took it, then stored it in his spatial ring, and said to Lei Qianjiao with a smile,
“You acted so decisively. To be honest, I was quite worried you might let him go!”
“Someone like him, if released, would be like letting a tiger return to the mountains.”
“He would definitely find ways to deal with us.”
Lei Qianjiao shook her head and said with a smile, “How could that be? I’m not such a weak woman.”
“I’ve killed people before, so there’s no need to worry that I would let him go in this matter.”
“So that’s how it is,” Wu Tian nodded with a smile.
He then looked at Liu Qingbo’s remaining accomplices and said with a smile,
“You guys like watching the show, don’t you? What, do you want to try it too?”
Those few people were already scared stiff by the scene.
Upon hearing Wu Tian’s words, they immediately understood that Wu Tian had no intention of killing them all.
So they quickly expressed their thanks to Wu Tian and fled in a hurry.
Thus, this battle came to an end.
Wu Tian said to Lei Qianjiao, “Tell me what happened. What exactly is going on?”
“It’s so sudden, how did you end up fighting?”
Lei Qianjiao replied, “It’s simple. After being teleported here, you and I were separated, but these people gathered together.”
“While I was looking for you, I happened to run into them here, and that’s when the conflict started.”
“So that’s how it is,” Wu Tian said sheepishly, “It’s my fault, my fault. I should have come to find you earlier, but I was delayed by some matters.”
“If anything had happened to you, I would probably regret it for the rest of my life.”
Wu Tian’s words sent a trace of warmth flowing through Lei Qianjiao’s heart.
She smiled slightly, “It’s okay, you arrived in the end, didn’t you?”
“Besides, the matters that delayed you should have been a great opportunity for you, right?”
“Otherwise, you wouldn’t have such strength right after stepping into the High-Grade Immortal realm.”
Lei Qianjiao’s keen perception made Wu Tian chuckle.
However, he didn’t explain much more and instead looked at Liu Qingbo’s finger, saying,
“Compared to this, let’s first see what treasures he has.”
As he spoke, Wu Tian extended his hand, and the ring on Liu Qingbo’s finger immediately flew out and landed in his palm.
This action made Lei Qianjiao curiously ask, “What do you mean? Do you think he has anything good?”
Wu Tian smiled and said, “Perhaps. After all, he was willing to give a Qi Restoration Pill to Sun Yu. He doesn’t look like a pauper, does he?”
After speaking, Wu Tian extended his immortal energy into the spatial ring and began to search its interior.
As the search progressed, his eyes gradually became surprised, and he couldn’t help but say,
“Yo? Looks like this guy is quite a rich man.”
Lei Qianjiao immediately asked, “What is it? Did you find something?”
Wu Tian nodded, then released everything from the ring.
Instantly, a beam of light shot out from the ring and transformed into a mist of light, appearing before their eyes.
Various items floated within the mist, all of them valuable.
But Wu Tian and Lei Qianjiao’s gazes lingered only on the dozen or so pills.
“This is…” Lei Qianjiao’s pupils widened slightly.
Wu Tian glanced at the pills, then a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and he said,
“Five Qi Restoration Pills, three Qi Augmentation Pills, three Wound Restoration Pills…”
“Any one of these things is solid hard currency!”
“This guy really collected quite a lot!”
Lei Qianjiao was also very surprised by this, but what followed was doubt, and she couldn’t help but ask,
“But that’s not right. How could he have so many good things?”
“He’s just a High-Grade Immortal. If it were just him, I don’t think he would have the ability to get so many pills.”
“So I’m sure his identity must be quite extraordinary, right?”
Wu Tian also nodded and said, “You are right. Treasures like these, even if I were to look for them now, it would be difficult to obtain them without spending three to five years.”
“It seems we’ve killed someone of noble status this time.”
Hearing Wu Tian’s teasing tone, Lei Qianjiao immediately became a little displeased and said,
“So what? He attacked first, so this is his just deserts!”
“Besides, I don’t care what his identity is. I am the Saintess of the Holy Thunder Sect!”
“And your status is on par with the Sect Master. No matter what, we don’t need to be afraid of him, right?”
Seeing Lei Qianjiao’s defiant look, Wu Tian laughed heartily and said,
“You’re right. No matter who he is, don’t we have a background?”
“We killed him today, so be it. Consider him a scourge removed.”
After speaking, Wu Tian threw a Qi Restoration Pill to Lei Qianjiao:
“Eat this. Recover your immortal energy as soon as possible.”
“Ah?” This sudden action stunned Lei Qianjiao.
