Chapter 150: Drink Till All’s Blue

Translator: Transn Editor: Transn

It was weird!

Junior Leopard felt ill now, extremely ill.

Although he knew that Gao Yulou was a Level Seven expert and owned Sword Gang, because of his Black Hole Fist Intent, he did not believe that he would be threatened unless he met a stronger expert like Lu Shaoyou.

However, when he was really facing off against Gao Yulou who put in all of his efforts, he understood what a stronger expert Gao Yulou was and how great a reputation Gao Yulou had earned.

The Sword Gang of the Three Yin Illusion Divine Sword was not so weak as Junior Leopard had expected.

As a matter of fact, the Sword Gang of the Three Yin Illusion Divine Sword totally smashed Junior Leopard’s former cognitions on Gang Qi.

For Junior Leopard, Gang Qi, now that it was refined by Evil Qi and Internal Qi, naturally revolved around Junior Leopard’s body to protect him like a barrier. The difference between them was just intention and property, like Wang She’s Jade Original Power Gang that he had seen before. But now he understood that Gang Qi changed in variety and was not just a defending strength and Qi wall.

Gao Yulou’s Sword Gang was not the strength, but blade Qi that was like numerous fine needles which were surrounding him. Once he spread it, Gao Yulou looked like a hedgehog. At this moment, he could not only attack but also guard. Junior Leopard, whose cultivation just reached the peak of Level Six, though a Level Eight expert fought with him, he would be fine.

The Sword Gang of the Three Yin Illusion Divine Sword was very grotesque indeed.

The Blade Qi, like fine needles, was pillowy and tough. Without any attacks, Junior Leopard could feel that no matter how hardworking he was, how aggressive he was, he would be unable to attack Gao Yulou, for his attack force would be shed by the dense needle-shaped Sword Gang. On the contrary, when Gao Yulou launched an attack, countless fine needles would fly together and cover the sky. By contrast, his 49 Demon Devil needles were inferior. The Demon Devil needles were nothing in front of Gao Yulou’s Sword Gang.

“Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!” Junior Leopard bawled secretly. The weird force field formed by his fist intent had reached its limit, leaving only that intangible darksome needle-shaped strength that rushed at him like raindrops. Without the force field, he would be pierced to be a sieve by this eccentric Gang Qi. But now, this Sword Gang formed a weird phenomenon around him, as soon as the needle-shaped strength got within 10 feet away from him, it would move sharply at over three times speed. With this extremely fast speed, there was a weird phenomenon in Gao Yulou’s eye, his Sword Gang turned uncontrollable, as if it was trapped in a slippery region. It was as though he ran at a top speed and then his feet stepped on a puddle of oil. It was as though he suddenly slipped and fell down to the ground when running. His Sword Gang seemed to slip into an endless space at a surprisingly fast speed. It seemed as though he would hit Junior Leopard in a blink.

However, this distance was also extremely large. No matter how hard this Sword Gangs went forward, it still did not reach Junior Leopard.

In Gao Yulou’s eye, it was such a weird and eccentric scene where his own Sword Gang rushed in and never came back out. He was one foot away from Junior Leopard, but this short distance seemed to separate the skyline and never reach its end. Therefore, though he wanted to withdraw his Sword Gang, he found it hard to do it.

“No wonder you are so brave that you, a Level Six expert, should dare to challenge me. I never thought that you had practiced such a weird fist intent. But how long can you persist?” Gao Yulou laughed coldly and took a few steps backward. He was, in fact, somewhat fearful of Junior Leopard’s weird spirit.

However, fearful as he was, he had now taken an advantage. Though Junior Leopard’s spirit was weird, the situation had become a war of attrition. He had his own Sword Gang, so what he did not fear was attrition. By contrast, he believed that if Junior Leopard wanted to maintain his spirit, he had to clench his teeth, for his attrition was great. He believed that as long as he stood still and waited for Junior Leopard to consume all of his energy, he would capture Junior Leopard at last.

After going through a struggle, Gao Yulou had calmed down. With his rich experience in fighting, he had found Junior Leopard’s plight, so he directly waited at ease until the enemy was exhausted. His needle-shaped Sword Gang was endless. If an exact number must be given, there would be hundreds of thousands of needles. At the beginning, in order to promptly end the fight, he operated several thousand needles of Sword Gang against Junior Leopard and they were all trapped in Junior Leopard’s spirit. The Sword Gang still existed and owned the lethality, but they did not attack Junior Leopard’s body. But now, Junior Leopard was totally surrounded by Sword Gang. Hence, he went nowhere. Although he was able to control the weird fist intent force field and change the direction of Sword Gang, Junior Leopard could not wipe his Sword Gang out. Being ambushed on all sides by Sword Gang, though he could change one or several directions of Sword Gang, he was still powerless.

Therefore, from the beginning, the war situation had been adverse to him.

In the meantime, Junior Leopard had noticed the mistake that he had committed.

Fron the beginning, he was wrong.

“If I knew that his sword Gang was so weird earlier, I would never use fist intent!” Junior Leopard whined in his heart. What he had practiced before, the Silver Moon Sword Technique and the Emerald Pearl sword was unuseful at present. At the beginning, when he was fighting with Gao Yulou, he could do nothing but trigger his own Internal Qi and tighten his tension like a straightened steel wire. But meanwhile, he also knew that if the steel wire was kept taught all the time, it would break off.

“I must find a way out. His Sword Gang is too insidious. Damn it! The fine needles are more insidious than my Asura Yin Evil Needles. Wait a minute, Asura Yin Evil Needles…”

Junior Leopard’s heart flickered. His Punching Spirit fully opened and with gritted teeth and murderous eyes, the sheath of Emerald Pearl sword was pulled out, “There’s no way out. I must hit it. Damn it. Gao Yulou, that’s a risk you take!”

The surrounding fist intent, which permeated 30 feet, disappeared at once.

When Gao Yulou lost the constraint of Junior Leopard’s fist intent, his Sword Gang shook violently.

“Swish!” Amid the vibration of the whole air, an overwhelming needle rain sprinkled towards Junior Leopard. Now, that there was no fist intent surrounding Junior Leopard to defend him. The Sword Gang lost its greatest constraint and gathered together far and near to seal him off.

“Doesn’t he want to live?” That Junior Leopard suddenly withdrew his fist intent at this point was beyond Gao Yulou’s expectations, at the same time, an alert was raised from his heart.

“Phew! Phew!”

With two abnormal sounds, Junior Leopard parceled by Sword Gang promptly disappeared, as if he never existed. The second sound came from Gao Yulou’s Sword Gang as it bumped against itself.

It was too late to take back his Sword Gang, thus, it collided with itself. Fortunately, it did not give rise to any trouble. But, Gao Yulou got into trouble.

At the moment of Junior Leopard’s disappearance, he realized something bad would happen. With his fighting instinct, he turned around swiftly and operated his sword to attack Junior Leopard again.

“DANG! DANG! DANG!” With three successive hits, his sword bumped into Junior Leopard’s Emerald Pearl.

Three Realms Division!

When Gao Yulou was most careless, Junior Leopard moved behind him through Three Realm Division and brandished his sword to attack Gao Yulou directly.

At the moment when Gao Yulou attacked Junior Leopard, there was a space left behind him at a part of Gao Yulou’s Sword Gang. What’s more, seeing Junior Leopard being trapped, he relaxed his vigilance. Thus, Junior Leopard had an opportunity to approach him. If not, as Junior Leopard grasped Three Realm Division, on condition that he was protected by Sword Gang all the time, by no means was Junior Leopard likely to close in on him.

Due to his carelessness, Junior Leopard assaulted him and won a near success!

Gao Yulou was shamed into anger. For years, except for his lost to Lu Shaoyou, he had never suffered such losses. His mind twirled and his surrounding Sword Gang swarmed. A tight dragnet was once more formed around him. At the same time, Junior Leopard jumped out, slightly shaking his wide dark sleeves, as if his sleeves were blown by a wind. His figure flew out and disappeared away swiftly, “Hehe, chivalrous man Gao, your Sword Gang is so awesome that I won’t accompany you!”

As his figure disappeared, a faintly joking voice came into Gao Yulou’s ears.

“F**k!” When Junior Leopard suddenly disappeared, his spirits also disappeared. The cooked duck flew away. How couldn’t he be furious and wrathful? Gao Yulou was arduous to lead Junior Leopard to this place and was about to seize him. However, Junior Leopard ran away. Besides, he ran away when Gao Yulou had the absolute advantage, which irritated him. He waved his hands fiercely and his Sword Gang fell down around him. Only leaving a string of crackling sounds. The surrounding trees, rocks, and houses broke into pieces lifelessly, as though they were bananas blown by rain.

“Hum, you’d better meet me next time, Otherwise, er…” Gao Yulou burst into rage. When scolding Junior Leopard, he halted suddenly with a fury. His eyes were extremely startled and his mouth open. Scattered Sword Gang curled violently and rushed to him wildly. They drilled into his body from his eyes, mouth, and ears. His expression changed acutely. His surface skin sometimes concaved and sometimes convexed, as if there were numerous worms walking under his skin. It looked gruesome.

Gradually, his body froze, his shocked eyes turned terrified and then, at last, they turned hopeless.

“Phew!” When a hint of slight sound rang out, a fine needle as thin as cow-hair drilled out of his eyebrows with faint blood. Gao Yulou’s eyes became vacant.

“PENG!” There was one more thud. The Sword Gang he had absorbed broke out from his body and turned a clump of blood fog. Gao Yulou fell against the ground and lost his spirit.

“Alas, my sin, my sin!” Junior Leopard appeared from behind an abandoned wall that Gao Yulou destroyed. He rolled back his dark sleeve and 49 Demon Devil needles flew in from out Gao Yulou’s body.

Junior Leopard walked before Gao Yulou’s corpse. From behind his thick mask, he uttered a heavy sigh. He looked at Gao Yulou’s corpse and said, “Don’t blame me. Only blame that you met me! Hum!”

Shaking his head, Junior Leopard did not examine Gao Yulou’s corpse. When he raised his hand, a fiery stripe slipped out of his hand and fell upon Gao Yulou’s corpse. After several breaths, his corpse had burned to ashes. Junior Leopard turned away.

After an hour, Wang She appeared. Like Junior Leopard, he walked before the corpse and began to sigh.

“This little maniac, that he should kill him?! I underestimate him. In assorted Gang Qi, the sword Gang of Three Yin Illusion Divine Sword was known for its fantastic power. To my surprise, he managed to break such an awesome Gang Qi!” Snake King said to himself. Wang She took a few steps back and forth, with his hand gesticulating, said, “I’m guessing that he used his strange fist intent so that Sword Gang couldn’t approach him. He attacked Zhou Bao with his Sword Gang and then relaxed his surrounding protection, so Zhou Bao had an opportunity to draw near him and he was unprepared to respond. However, even so, with cultivation and sword techniques, Gao Yulou was unlikely to be killed. Otherwise, Gao Yulou couldn’t be alive, that bloke must have used other methods that I don’t know of.”

He quietly guessed what happened here and listed the whole process. But he couldn’t infer how Junior Leopard managed to kill Gao Yulou.

“Did he use the strength of Fiery Eyes to kill Gao Yulou?” Wang She narrowed his eyes, “This is quite possible. It’s the only possible method. The strength of Fiery Eyes is enigmatic. If he really used Fiery Eyes, he would be likely to kill Gao Yulou. But why do I think this event is not so simple?”

Wang She’s cultivation was so high that people would think he possessed a mysterious telepathic connection. Many things did not need eyes to see and ears to hear. Only using the spiritual mind, would things be certain.

It was not a big deal to him that Junior Leopard killed Gao Yulou. With his present Level Nine identity, though he really rushed to Mingyi School and killed several Level Seven experts, Mingyi School would not utter a single word. What he worried about was the way Junior Leopard killed Gao Yulou. After killing Gao Yulou, Junior Leopard burned the corpse. Although Wang She intended to figure it out, it was useless. Therefore, Wang She valued Junior Leopard more. In the world, not every Level Six expert was able to kill a Level Seven expert, not everyone had Fiery Eyes, and not everyone could spend one year practicing External Elixir to reach the peak of Level Six. All this indicated that Junior Leopard had dramatic value. The more he was familiarised with Junior Leopard, the more he treasured Junior Leopard.

“Hoho, this bloke, always brings all kinds of surprises to me!” AfterWang She thought for a long time but was unable to arrive at a specific conclusion, he finally shook his head and gave up, “When I see him next time, I will ask him about it. This time we ruined Lu Shaoyou’s Wedding and killed Gao Yulou. Mingyi School won’t let it go. Although Mingyi School is unable to strike back, there must be a verbal battle for a long time. Something troublesome will come later.”

But that something troublesome would happen later had nothing to do with Junior Leopard.

After killing Gao Yulou, he got into an alley at once. In an abandoned house, he burnt his dark robe and mask and put the External Elixir on the ear, then he employed several Three Realm Division in succession and returned to Zhenyang Door Street.

It had been two hours since Wang She had kidnapped the bride. At this moment, the whole Qinlingjun City was immersed in incomparable shock, including the Wu Family. In such days, of course, there was no one looking into the fact that Junior Leopard had missed four hours, so Junior Leopard naturally snuck into the Wu Family, then openly went out of that yard and integrated into the Wu’s discussion tide.

But soon, he did not laugh out.

“Level Nine? Wang She is a Level Nine expert who overwhelms Lu Shaoyou in Lu Mansion, that disgraces the whole Lu Mansion and even Mingyi School. What does he find us for?”

Although it was somewhat difficult that a Level Nine expert directly rushed in Lu Mansion to kidnap the bride, it was not too difficult. The fact had proved that as long as he revealed that he was a Level Nine expert, no matter who it was, they didn’t dare to wildly move!

Unexpectedly, Wang She should draw Gao Yulou away in person, Peng Gongliang and the others should entangle those experts of Lu Mansion and finally, Nian Wushuang should kidnap Ma Linglong. Nobody knew his true purpose.

“Junior Zhou, you have come back! I didn’t see you so long that I thought that you were not here!”

As Junior Leopard was thinking, he heard a sound. Then Junior Leopard turned round and saw that the incomer was Lou. He couldn’t help laughing, “Senior brother Lou, I ‘ve been to the street to seek the fun!”

“Oh, all of the people went there, so it deserves a look!” Lou laughed and said, “But it’s our turn to get busy!”

Junior Leopard was confused for a moment and promptly understood, “Right! Right! Tomorrow senior brother Jin will get married. We’ll be responsible for welcoming the bride and other issues. What a busy day!”

“Of course! The Family Head has ordered us to perform it in a simple way, however, it’s a most important event in their life after all, so it’s unlikely to be too simple!”

“Sure, it’s the most important event of their life. By the way, tomorrow senior brother Jin will also draw near this street?”

“Yeah, it’s the street ahead. Senior brother Jin also purchased a courtyard in Qinlingjun City which is a bridal chamber. However, since such a bad accident has happened to Lu Mansion, I fear that there will be trouble when welcoming the bride tomorrow!”

When Junior Leopard saw soldiers on horses come and go, he couldn’t help nodding his head. Governor Ma’s daughter had been kidnapped at the wedding. The Governor Mansion was sure to echo this matter, otherwise, the Governor Mansion of Yunzhou would lose face! Of course, his actions would be performed in with fanfare.

But those with discerning eyes all knew that he just was pretending. It was the two Chiefs of Tian Long Taoism, one with Level Eight and another with Level Nine that kidnapped the bride. How could you seize them? As for the several other participants, they were worthless. It was nonsensical to catch them.

On the other hand, Yunzhou’s Wu Family was something of subtle in its status. It was known to all that the Wu Family depended on Tian Long Taoism. Now that Tian Long Taoists had kidnapped Governor’s daughter, it had embarrassed the Wu Family in Yunzhou.

What surprised everyone was that the Wu Family also held a Wedding tomorrow. In this way, except for shocks brought by this event, the Wu Family was propelled into the teeth of the storm accidentally.

Junior Leopard and Lou didn’t know that when both of them were debating the next day’s wedding, the Wu’s top leaders had made a decision that the Wedding was canceled.

Although this decision somewhat lost them face, compared with offending Governor Ma, it was deserved. Today his daughter had been kidnapped at the wedding, but the next day the Wu Family would get his daughter married with a great fanfare, that sought trouble indeed.

…

…

“What? Senior brother, the Wedding has been canceled?” Elated Junior Leopard followed Lou and they moved to the courtyard Jin Nanqing had purchased. When they met Jin Nanqing, before they said congratulations to him, a bitter Jin Nanqing told them that the course of the events which had cast a chill over them.

“How can it be so? The wedding that was fixed earlier should be canceled, just because Governor Ma’s daughter has been kidnapped!” Lou appeared to be compassionate and complained disappointedly.

“There’s no other way. Our Wu Family has a close relationship with Tian Long Taoism. It’s apparent that the event was done by Tian Long Taoism. At this time, we’d better not seek trouble.”

“But!”

“Senior brother Lou is right. It doesn’t matter that senior brother can’t get married today, but senior brother can do it tomorrow or on any day. The result remains the same. What senior brothersaid is right. At this time, we’d better not seek troubles!” Junior Leopard patted Lou on the shoulder and said, “But anyway, now that the wedding has been canceled, senior brother, the good alcohol you have prepared should be taken out, shouldn’t it?”

“Right! Right! I’ll take it out, take it out!” Jin Nanqing laughed and said, “But just us three here are too few. Call them together. Let’s drink till we drop?”

“Sure, let’s drink until we drop!” Junior Leopard echoed aloud.
