Chapter 800 - Eccentric
With this saber move of Di Jiu, he felt that every inch of his domain had shattered and the void that had originally been under his control no longer belonged to him.
Duan Shen grabbed the gourd at his waist, which turned into a bloody lake.
Boom! When the Heavenly Aqua Saber clashed with the bloody lake, a ruthless murderous aura exploded everywhere along with the smell of blood. Duan Shen retreated to a corner of the hall before stopping. He already knew in his heart that it made sense that Gou Wansheng had been so afraid of Di Jiu. Di Jiu was definitely stronger than him and not by just a bit.
“Daoist Di, I have no intention of becoming enemies with you. If we must fight, I will not fear you. I also know a little about the place Brother Gou mentioned. It will be disadvantageous to everyone if I die,” Duan Shen said coldly, clutching onto his gourd.
Gou Wansheng knew Duan Shen very well and he knew that Duan Shen was afraid. At the same time, he also felt sad for himself. Usually, a person like Duan Shen was not qualified to be on equal footing with him, but Duan Shen was obviously stronger than him now.
Di Jiu did not step forward to make a move, as the goal of this saber move had been achieved.
Duan Shen had come forward to associate with him. He had ignored Duan Shen and had slashed at him. One of his goals was to let Duan Shen know that he was eccentric and he therefore shouldn’t challenge his bottom line. His second goal was to tell Duan Shen not to think about joining forces with Gou Wansheng to sneak an attack on him. He would sneak an attack in vain given his strength. When that happened, given Di Jiu’s temperament, he would have to kill Duan Shen even if it meant going to the end of the world.
“Since you’ve given me guidance, I’ll let you off this time.” While he said that, Di Jiu hung the Heavenly Aqua Saber on his back.
Upon seeing that Di Jiu hadn’t taken any more action, Duan Shen was relieved and was secretly shocked by Di Jiu’s strength. Although he had taken the initiative to greet Di Jiu, in fact, he had already planned to kill Di Jiu by sneaking an attack on him.
Duan Shen had a nickname that many people didn’t know about. He was called Invisible and many cultivators with a higher cultivation level had died in his hands. Just like the yellow-haired Grand Elder of the Xian Family, he would not necessarily be a match for him if they truly fought. However, he had relied on Gou Wansheng’s reputation and successfully launched a sneak attack, thus bringing him to the ground.
Xian Yu and Xian Bainan were both experts. Therefore, they naturally believed that this situation was evitable.
After Xian Bainan opened the jade box that Di Jiu had thrown back and took a look, he said with a sigh, “It’s indeed the Spiritual Force imprint that I left on him. This Spiritual Force imprint is bound in this jade box. If I don’t open it, I will not detect it myself. It’s formidable. Truly formidable.”
How could it not be formidable since he could not even detect his own Spiritual Force imprint?
“Eldest Elder, did you really leave a Spiritual Force imprint on Di Jiu?” Xian Wuxun asked in surprise.
Xian Bainan nodded. “Yes, I did. Fortunately, for the sake of Xian Cang, he did not care about our recklessness.”
Xian Cang also felt lingering fear and was glad that he had not misjudged Di Jiu, who was a true expert.
Yellow-haired Xian Yu shook his head. “Di Jiu indeed did this partly for the sake of Xian Cang, but most importantly, the Xian Family never went overboard.”
Xian Bainan agreed with that. “Yes, I’m sure that is one of the reasons. The Xian Family has always tried not to bully others. Today, our efforts were reciprocated.”
“However, Di Jiu seems a bit eccentric,” Xian Wuxun said. Even though he could not move, he knew that Di Jiu had slashed at Xian Yu, who had greeted him.
Xian Bainan mumbled, “Hence, he became a terrifying expert with an eccentric character. Don’t you find him eccentric? Even though he wanted the jade talisman, he managed to exchange it in an orderly manner.”
“Eldest Elder, did he deliberately use that saber move?” Xian Wuxun had just been enlightened.
Xian Bainan replied affirmatively, “That’s right, he did that on purpose. Unfortunately, the Xian Family can’t be associated with such an expert.”
