Attacked by the Female Demon at the Beginning-Chapter 246 - Not Leaving Me a Single Penny

Chapter 246: Not Leaving Me a Single Penny

Watching Du Yong cast the spell, Jiang Hao suddenly remembered something.

If someone is taken out and killed, would the Hall of Enforcement investigate?

If not, would they investigate if someone was lured out?

It might be worth asking Liu Xingchen.

At that moment, the surrounding formation activated, and Jiang Hao felt the familiar sensation of teleportation.

This kind of teleportation was similar to the Thousand Li Movement, causing a dizzying sensation.

If the opponent attacked from behind during this time, the success rate would be extremely high. fɾēewebnσveℓ.com

So, the moment the teleportation ended, he suppressed the dizziness and leaped forward.

Because only the front was within his field of vision.

Sure enough, he felt an attack coming from behind.

At least at the Nascent Soul level.

Boom!

The Nine Heavens Battle Armor protected him, blocking the residual waves from behind.

Using the force, Jiang Hao leaped to the edge of a mountain peak.

Now he turned around to look behind.

Apart from the still-dizzy Du Yong, there was a young woman.

She was dressed in a blue fairy dress with a white belt around her waist, her black hair simply tied up, her skin unusually fair.

Her delicate face showed a hint of surprise.

It was actually a woman, which somewhat surprised Jiang Hao.

But he also confirmed that her cultivation was at the mid-stage of Nascent Soul, equal to his own realm.

This suggested that Qu Zhong’s main body was either at the late stage or the complete stage of Nascent Soul.

And this place, with twin peaks side by side, must be the Shuangyun Peak, not too far from the Tianyin Sect.

They were at the top of one of the peaks.

“You actually dodged it? And you have a Nascent Soul level treasure, there really is some problem,” the blue-dressed woman said with a crisp and pleasant voice.

She held her chin, quite surprised.

“May I ask who you are?” Jiang Hao feigned concern.

At this time, he activated his divine appraisal ability.

He quickly received feedback.

【Divine Corpse Liu Yun: Originally an inner disciple of Xueling Sect with a mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivation. She was possessed by Qu Zhong of the Corpse God Sect, becoming one of his three Divine Corpse avatars. Possesses independence, acts separately from the main body, and is unable to share what she sees, hears, or knows with the main body. If she doesn’t merge with the main body for a long time, she will gradually lose her memory and eventually develop an independent personality, but it’s difficult for her to survive for long. Her task is to replace your heart with the Corpse Heart and then head to the Xuantian Sect. She is puzzled by your ability to dodge the attack and, out of caution, has already begun to use charm techniques on you.】

Charm techniques.

Jiang Hao felt a headache upon seeing this.

Because he was caught by Hong Yuye last time, he hadn’t flipped through it for a long time.

Now, he couldn’t detect how she was using the charm technique.

Fortunately, he didn’t need to cooperate.

A Divine Corpse with independence was like another Qu Zhong; there was no need to worry about leaking information.

This was similar to the Great Thousand Spirit Avatar.

Now it was a matter of how much he could learn from her.

“My name is Liu Yun.”

Liu Yun kicked Du Yong aside and flicked her hair lightly.

At this point, Du Yong had lost his spirit, it seemed that all consciousness had transferred to Liu Yun.

“Fairy Liu, you’re not a normal person, are you?”

Jiang Hao didn’t know if the charm technique was still ongoing.

He could only ignore it.

“Am I not beautiful enough?” Liu Yun asked.

She moved forward bit by bit.

“Not at all,” Jiang Hao shook his head.

“Why do you seem to have no interest in me?” Liu Yun had already halved the distance.

A little closer, and she could continue the attack, preventing him from jumping off the cliff and causing more trouble.

“Because I saw two characters.”

“Which two characters?”

Seeing that the other party was absent-minded about the question, Jiang Hao smiled and said, “Qu Zhong.”

Suddenly, Liu Yun, who was originally striding forward, paused.

She looked at Jiang Hao with a face full of astonishment, “What did you say?”

To this, Jiang Hao smiled slightly.

“I’m calling your name.”

“You...” Liu Yun was shocked.

At that moment, Jiang Hao made his move.

Half-Moon was unsheathed, and Merge with Light and Blend with Dust was activated.

Heavenly Saber’s first move, Moon Slash.

Simultaneously, Liu Yun also made her move.

Ice spikes surged beneath her feet, heading straight for Jiang Hao.

Both took advantage of the conversation to launch their attacks.

Whoosh!

After attacking, both began to dodge the other’s assaults.

Jiang Hao leaped up, and Merge with Light and Blend with Dust was activated once again.

Purple Qi began to cover Half-Moon, and Heavenly Saber’s second move, Mountain Suppressor, was unleashed.

A force of a hundred thousand pounds manifested in an instant, pressing down.

This was the Mountain Suppressor within the wrist.

Around Liu Yun, cold ice appeared, enveloping her, and a portion began to attack.

Boom!

Crack!

The overwhelming force crushed all the ice into shards.

Both the offensive and defensive moves were shattered.

Boom!

The blade’s edge cut through everything, striking Liu Yun and inflicting heavy damage.

Biting her teeth, Liu Yun once again cast her spell.

At this moment, moonlight shone in her eyes.

Pfft!

The moonlight circulated, and her arm soared into the sky.

Purple Qi appeared before her eyes once again.

Thump.

A silver long saber pierced her body, and a strong, unique force began to wreak havoc.

It dissolved the spiritual energy she had gathered.

Liu Yun, with only one hand left, looked up at the man who had suddenly appeared before her.

The man held the hilt of the saber, and the power from his hand took everything from her.

She opened her mouth, struggling to say,

“My name is Liu Yun, not Qu Zhong.”

Hearing this, Jiang Hao was taken aback.

At that moment, Liu Yun’s power surged violently.

Without any hesitation, Jiang Hao drew his saber and made another slash.

The shadow of the saber was powerful, piercing through Liu Yun’s body, and finally landed on a huge rock behind her, causing a loud rumble as countless fragments fell.

This strike shattered the violent power and also extinguished her life.

The shattered body of Liu Yun fell, devoid of any life force.

“Liu Yun, huh?”

Jiang Hao had thought it was merely Qu Zhong, but it turned out to be Liu Yun.

Could it be that having independence would lean towards the original character and memories of the body?

Facing the now deceased Liu Yun, he could not know.

His original intention was to inquire about Corpse Heart and Zhuang Yuzhen to understand more.

But the other party did not give him any chance.

Picking up the fallen storage treasure, Jiang Hao found only a box inside.

“Not even a single spirit stone for me?”

He then picked up Du Yong’s storage treasure.

It was completely empty.

This Qu Zhong is somewhat stingy.

He gave two Divine Corpses a couple more slashes.

Jiang Hao left a fire behind. After it burned out, he turned and left.

He was not in a hurry to return but wanted to find a place to examine the Corpse Heart.

Arriving at another mountain peak, he placed the box on the ground.

He then retreated some distance and opened the box from afar.

In an instant, a strong scent of blood extended from the box.

Jiang Hao became alert, unsheathing Half-Moon to prevent any accidents.

Following that, a vivid red heart appeared before his eyes. Although it had no body, it was still beating non-stop.

Thump!

Thump!

Thump!

Forceful and powerful, the sound was extraordinarily loud.

It was like a living being, pulsating with life.

After observing for a moment and deeming there was no significant danger, Jiang Hao stretched out his hand to cast a spell, Universe in the Palm.

Purple Qi enveloped the heart in an instant, and then it transformed into a purple bead appearing in his palm.

At that moment, the heartbeat and the blood qi both disappeared.

“I wonder if such a seal can prevent it from absorbing the aura of the Heavenly Fragrance Dao Flower.”

After putting away the bead, Jiang Hao casually destroyed the box.

The box had a special aura, and he was worried about being tracked.

It was better to just destroy it.

Having done all this, he connected with the golden ring in the courtyard and vanished from the spot.

Back in the courtyard, he went to the Spiritual Medicine Garden to prepare for any questioning.

If Du Yong’s death were to be investigated by the Hall of Enforcement, he, as a person who had contact, would definitely be implicated.

If people in the Spiritual Medicine Garden saw him, he could just pretend to be unaware later on.

He also had to be cautious with the Corpse Heart to prevent inviting trouble into his home.
