Chapter 28 - You Would Not Be Able To Leave Today
Upon exiting Sky Treasure Pavilion, Song Qi took out a flying sword from his storage bag. He touched it lightly with his fingertips, infusing it with spirit qi, and the flying sword floated in front of the two of them.
Song Qi could tell that Su Zimo had no spirit qi. Since he had a bow and saber with him, he must know martial arts. It should not be a problem to get onto the flying sword.
Song Qi said, “Young Master Su, get on the flying sword. Don’t be afraid. I will protect you while on the sword. I won’t let you fall down from the sword. We will reach Ping Yang Town in no time.”
Su Zimo’s eyes swept over Song Qi’s flying sword, shaking his head. “Let’s walk, we will see how it goes when we exit the city.”
There was no spirit pattern on Song Qi’s flying sword. It was a pseudo spirit weapon.
Su Zimo himself, with the Sanguine Crystal Bow and Cold Moon Saber would weigh an entire ton. Given Song Qi’s Level 7 Qi Condensation realm, he would not be able to carry all of them.
Su Zimo did not point out the truth. They walked out of the city with long strides.
Su Zimo smiled but did not say anything.
Song Qi was helpless, saying through clenched teeth, “I am not his opponent. Young Master Su, you should leave as soon as possible, or it will be too late!”
“No one will be able to leave today!”
The black-robed Qi Refinement Warrior hollered, and the flying sword sped up, hitting Song Qi’s defense. Sound of metal clashing against one another could be heard.
Right then, the two of them who were in a fierce fight heard a long sigh.
“Yes, you would not be able to leave today…”
Both Song Qi and the black-robed Qi Refinement Warrior were shocked. Before they could figure out what Su Zimo meant by that, they saw a terrifying sight from the corner of their eyes!
Su Zimo was standing forty feet apart from them.
But Su Zimo reached them within two to three strides. There was a murderous glint in his eyes. He was like a human-devouring beast that had the single intent of killing the person in front of him!
Song Qi who was by the side felt a sense of fear, let alone the black-robe Qi Refinement Warrior who had been targeted by Su Zimo.
“It’s not good!”
The black-robed Qi Refinement Warrior’s heart jumped a beat. He retreated while he maneuvered the flying sword, thinking of changing its direction to kill Su Zimo.
However the black-robed Qi Refinement Warrior was too slow and in Su Zimo’s eyes, he had too many weaknesses.
Su Zimo had a cold glint in his eyes. He had a backhand grip on Cold Moon Saber, swinging it in front of him.
There was a flash of light from the saber, it was blinding.
Poof!
A large head was hurled off and it was cut neatly at the neck area. Fresh blood splattered everywhere.
Song Qi opened his mouth slightly. He was confused. He stared at the scene, dumbstruck, unable to recover himself.
Dead.
A Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior was dead from one single slash of the saber!
By luck? Down on his luck? Careless?
“Good saber!”
Su Zimo looked at the Cold Moon Saber. It did not have the slightest drop of blood on it. He praised the saber and put it back into its scabbard with a backhand motion.
Song Qi could not help but swallow his saliva.
What kind of man would be so calm after killing a Level 8 Qi Refinement Warrior?
In Song Qi’s eyes, Su Zimo had turned out to be a mysterious man. He was a different person from the frail scholar that he knew previously.
Song Qi could not help but think of the scene just now. The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it was. He broke out in cold sweats thinking of it.
He realized to his horror, that if Su Zimo used the saber on him, he would have no way to dodge it!
Su Zimo took the storage bag that was tied at the waist of the black-robed Qi Refinement Warrior. He did not take another look before he threw it to Song Qi, “Take it.”
“I-I cannot take it.” For some unknown reason, Song Qi seemed to be nervous around Su Zimo.
Su Zimo smiled. “Keep it and cultivate to Level 8 Qi Condensation as soon as possible.”
When Su Zimo smiled, he seemed to look like the frail scholar again. Song Qi relaxed slightly, no longer feeling as stressed, accepting the storage bag from him.
Su Zimo continued, “You can concentrate on maneuvering the flying sword to reach Ping Yang Town as soon as possible.”
Song Qi agreed and was about to ask where was Su Zimo going when he realized that he was no longer in the same position. He strode forward, covering twenty feet at one time. His speed was amazing!
It was not until now that Song Qi realized that his employer was no simple man…
Song Qi hurried to maneuver the sword to keep up with Su Zimo.
