Relying on the divine tree and the life force of many powerful individuals, Jiang Wuya's strength had actually recovered sixty to seventy percent.
With his current strength, Jiang Wuya did not fear Yan Shouyi at all!
No wonder Jiang Wuya dared to set an ambush in the General's Mansion!
He even wanted to use the captured powerhouses around the divine tree as bargaining chips, employing the stratagem of luring the tiger away from its mountain, to draw Yan Shouyi alone to the General's Mansion!
"No matter who it is, anyone who dares to stand in my way and attempt to obstruct my path shall die!!" Jiang Wuya shouted sternly, "Yan Shouyi, you are doomed to die today!!"
Yan Shouyi floated in mid-air, looking at the terrifyingly powerful Jiang Wuya, who seemed like a god and a demon. He felt a slight regret.
If possible, he of course wished to obtain the Town State Sword today and then kill Jiang Wuya.
Unfortunately, his strength was still a little inferior to Jiang Wuya's. In a one-on-one fight, he had no chance of defeating Jiang Wuya.
He sighed softly, then actually smiled faintly at Jiang Wuya.
Jiang Wuya's expression darkened, and he became somewhat worried.
He was worried that Yan Shouyi had prepared some other moves against him, as it was not the first time he had suffered at Yan Shouyi's hands.
"Jiang Wuya, I cannot kill you today," Yan Shouyi said with a smile.
Jiang Wuya snorted, "Since you know that, why not surrender on the spot? I can give you a quick death."
"What are you thinking?" Yan Shouyi said faintly, "I cannot kill you, and you cannot kill me."
"Ridiculous, it is as easy as flipping my hand to kill you today!" Jiang Wuya sneered dismissively.
Yan Shouyi smiled and shook his head.
He took a deep breath and slowly exhaled, his body suddenly enveloped in golden Buddhist light.
Concurrently, Yan Shouyi uttered Sanskrit, his voice solemn and majestic, as if it came from a distant land a thousand years ago, carrying an endless pressure that brooked no argument.
Seeing this, Jiang Wuya's brows furrowed. He felt his body being suppressed by a powerful force, as if he were carrying the entire Great Thunderclap Temple on his back.
It was a Buddhist technique...
Although Jiang Wuya was a descendant of Lu Ban, he might not know all the techniques Yan Shouyi knew. At this moment, Jiang Wuya did not know what technique Yan Shouyi was about to use, but he did not intend to wait passively.
"Do you think I will stand still and wait for your killing blow?"
Jiang Wuya sneered, the malevolent energy behind him transforming into sharp tentacles, stabbing towards Yan Shouyi.
However, Yan Shouyi remained motionless!
Why was he so confident?
Jiang Wuya's heart sank. Although he didn't understand Yan Shouyi particularly well, he understood human nature perfectly.
This was a matter of life and death; Yan Shouyi would not gamble like this!
As expected, Jiang Wuya felt two killing intents, one from the left and one from the right, encircling him!
From both sides, two figures, one black and one white, launched a surprise attack. Their powerful and fierce energy forced even Jiang Wuya to temporarily evade their might!
Retracting all his tentacles, Jiang Wuya almost wrapped himself into a ball. The attack followed immediately, like a torrential storm, repelling Jiang Wuya!
"It's you?"
Jiang Wuya retreated to the side of the Town State Sword again, his expression a mixture of shock and anger.
"You want to kill my son, Yan Chou? Have you asked me first?"
The black figure landed in front of Yan Shouyi, it was the grim-faced Yan Chou!
And the white figure was Jiang Wusheng's disciple, Yan Shouyi's mother, Jiang Qingxue!
The two were not in Rongcheng but had followed Yan Shouyi deep into Daqing Mountain, making their move at the most critical moment!
Jiang Wuya squinted as he sized up the two, and sneered, "Lin Zhitong is nine months pregnant and about to give birth. Would you two be at ease leaving her alone in Rongcheng? Aren't you worried that I would send someone to kill your Yan family's descendants?!"
Yan Chou nodded slightly and sneered, "If you could find Zhitong's whereabouts, you would have acted even if we were both in Rongcheng."
But Jiang Wuya did not.
Because after Yan Shouyi left Rongcheng, Lin Zhitong was transferred to the sacred land of the Lush an Sect – the bottom of the Min River!
The legendary mountain gate of the Lush an Sect was hidden at the bottom of the Min River that flowed through Rongcheng. Only those with kind hearts could see the entrance to the mountain gate, and Jiang Wuya clearly did not possess this qualification.
Hearing this, Jiang Wuya's expression turned grim, as if he had lost a bargaining chip to threaten Yan Shouyi.
Yan Chou, coupled with Jiang Qingxue, although they were not Jiang Wuya's match in his current state, they could delay him for a few minutes.
"Since you are determined to seek death, I shall send you on your way first, and then you shall be Yan Shouyi's escorts on the road to the Yellow Springs!!"
Jiang Wuya raged. He flicked his robe, sending out over a dozen wooden puppet avatars, who took positions around the body of the Town State Sword.
He himself, disregarding all consequences, charged towards Yan Shouyi!
To Yan Chou and Jiang Qingxue, their enemy was Jiang Wuya, but to Jiang Wuya, his sole focus was Yan Shouyi!
No matter what moves Yan Shouyi was using, as long as he was interrupted, all their plans would be ruined!!
Yan Chou and Jiang Qingxue blocked Yan Shouyi's path, and they did not intend to wait passively but to attack in defense.
Jiang Qingxue stomped her foot, and the Art of Qimen Dunjia took effect instantly. The fragments of bluestone slabs that Yan Shouyi had shattered once again transformed into fortresses, but this time they were not guarding the Town State Shrine, but Yan Shouyi!
As the bluestone fortresses appeared, the Buddhist light surrounding Yan Shouyi was obscured.
Meanwhile, a trace of lightning flashed in Yan Chou's eyes.
"Heavenly lightning rumbles, divine lightning booms. Dragon lightning surges, water lightning rolls. The earth commands lightning fire, thunderbolts crisscross. Divine power unleashed, evil spirits annihilated. The Supreme Commander decrees, execute with utmost urgency!"
The Five Thunder True Method!!
BOOM!!!
Thunderclouds gathered in the sky and instantly struck down an incomparably thick bolt of heavenly lightning. The heavenly lightning was filled with five colors, bizarre and magnificent.
Jiang Wuya, who was charging forward, raised his head, sneered, and gathered all his malevolent energy to his head, forming a reversed large umbrella, catching all the lightning!
"You think you can stop me with this!"
Jiang Wuya coldly snorted and flung the absorbed lightning towards Yan Shouyi. On its path, the lightning transformed into a ferocious-looking skull.
"I'll take it!"
Jiang Qingxue stepped forward a few paces, adopted a Tai Chi stance, and actually caught the terrifying power rushing towards her with her bare hands. She used her hands to guide it to circle around her body, and then unleashed it towards Jiang Wuya again!
The golden skull transformed into a golden dragon, instead of rushing directly forward, it "swam" towards Jiang Wuya in an unfathomable manner!
Jiang Wuya felt a hint of pressure. It wasn't that he couldn't block this move, but he had wasted too much time due to Yan Chou and his wife.
Therefore, he did not intend to block this move.
Jiang Wuya subtly took out a small paper effigy from his sleeve, intending to use the paper figure technique of "Golden Cicada Shedding Its Shell."
However, at this very moment, Jiang Wuya was shocked to discover that besides Yan Chou and Jiang Qingxue, there was a third aura present...
And this aura was hostile!
