Chasing in the Snow! Scarlet Blood Scholar

In the darkness of night, two figures moved swiftly.

It was midsummer in the Great Shang Dynasty, the moon and stars were few, yet snowflakes fell from the sky, crystalline as jade.

Soon, large snowflakes swept in, cold and desolate, frost covering the land, transforming it into a world of ice and snow.

Scarlet Blood Scholar had lost an arm, his blood continuously dripping, staining the snow beneath his feet red.

He looked back at Su Changqing, who was relentlessly closing in, his heart filled with terror.

Why was this person's speed so astonishing?

If this continued, he would surely die. His eyes flashed fiercely, and with three fingers like sharp claws, he struck into his own body.

His Blood Essence surged, his Dantian's Qi Sea churned, his speed exploded, and he fled desperately, heading straight for the outskirts of Chang'an City.

Behind him, Su Changqing followed closely.

His toes landed on the eaves of houses, leaving no trace in the snow. He looked down at the Scarlet Blood Scholar below, his eyes slightly narrowed.

The Four Seasons Cloud Falling Steps could utilize the advantages of terrain and weather.

Today, the Scarlet Blood Scholar would not escape.

In the distance, at a street corner, a middle-aged man slowly walked towards them. He wore a Flying Fish Robe, was tall, with narrowed, pale golden, eagle-like eyes, carrying a hint of coldness.

This man was Iron Claw Flying Eagle.

Unlike his grudges with Chen Mo and Ye Ronghuo, his enmity with Su Changqing was a true life-or-death vendetta.

Iron Claw Flying Eagle had once crushed this handyman disciple's throat with his own hands, and after confirming the other had no breath, he had left.

"I didn't expect this person to push the Scarlet Blood Scholar this far. However, if you have a treasure, it will be mine today. If you don't, then obtaining the Frost Snow Saber and killing the Scarlet Blood Scholar is still a windfall!"

Some met in pavilions, others peered from outside windows.

But they didn't know there were still those secretly witnessing everything.

Iron Claw Flying Eagle kept pace behind the two, his eyes cold and bloodthirsty.

Ever since Su Changqing accepted the mission, he had been secretly watching, waiting to kill him.

Such were the ways of the world; if one doesn't kill others, one will be killed by them.

The Scarlet Blood Scholar's Yin-Yang Steps were truly remarkable, his speed incredibly fast. He quickly left Chang'an City and headed into the depths of a dense forest.

This forest was dark and gloomy, with tall, dense trees, all covered in snow, like ice and silver flowers, dreamlike and illusory.

"The Scarlet Blood Scholar's lair is beneath a large Buddhist temple. We'll kill him when we reach the temple!"

Su Changqing's eyes narrowed. He had pursued all the way, but had maintained a distance from the Scarlet Blood Scholar, allowing the other a sliver of hope in his heart.

Life Script: Two days later, while pursuing the Scarlet Blood Scholar to his hiding place beneath a large Buddhist temple, discover an Indestructible Vajra Divine Art pill accidentally dropped by the Dali King of Zhennan during an intimate encounter...

The Muscle Tendon Pill from the Shaolin Temple was a secret treasure for the True Qi realm, capable of changing one's aptitude, expanding the Qi Sea, and cleansing the marrow.

He was determined to obtain this item.

After dozens of breaths, a dilapidated temple appeared, located deep in the dense forest. It spanned a hundred meters but was already in ruins.

"Kid, if you keep chasing, I'll make sure you die in this great Buddhist temple today!" the Scarlet Blood Scholar said with a fierce glare at Su Changqing.

In his lair, with the advantage of terrain, he would ensure this shameless brat was buried here!

The Scarlet Blood Scholar was covered in snow, his lips frozen purple. He wasn't even wearing trousers, having fled for nearly a hundred miles in the biting cold and snow.

He utterly detested Su Changqing.

Su Changqing silently estimated the distance. With a tap of his toes, he landed on a massive pine tree, causing countless snowflakes to shake loose.

With the Four Seasons Cloud Falling Steps, his speed in the snow doubled!

Su Changqing's speed suddenly surged. He burst forth from the swirling snow, his saber unsheathed, its cold glint flashing.

The Scarlet Blood Scholar was startled. He turned to look behind him, his face instantly changing.

He leaped in the snow, his blood-red soft sword flashing, slashing behind him.

"Kill!"

"Overlord Saber!"

Su Changqing slid through the snow, as dark as ink, his eyes indifferent, his Overlord Saber falling with a roar.

Blade and saber met, clashing with a ringing sound.

The two danced wildly in the snow, the surrounding trees being cut down by their weapons. Giant trees, that had grown for many years, crashed to the ground, and all the snow fell.

"I will kill you today!" the Scarlet Blood Scholar roared, his lips frozen purple.

Today, Feng Qingxue hadn't been conquered, the duck that was about to be caught had flown away. First, he had his arm severed by this person, and now he was being chased for a hundred miles!

This person's saber techniques were truly domineering and peerless!

The Scarlet Blood Scholar took a deep breath, his Purple Blood Soft Sword deflecting the True Qi, wrapping tightly around the Frost Snow Saber like a soft, blood-red silk thread.

With one foot, he broke through the air, kicking towards Su Changqing's legs.

"You don't have a right hand, but I have a left."

Su Changqing let out a long laugh, extending one hand, which transformed into a sharp claw, blocking the low kick.

The two first fought with sabers and swords, then engaged in close-quarters combat.

The surrounding atmosphere vibrated. Su Changqing's claw was fierce; he had already achieved minor success with the Eagle Claw Technique, gripping the Scarlet Blood Scholar's thigh and digging deep into the flesh.

The thigh was torn open alive, blood gushing out. The Scarlet Blood Scholar cried out in pain, his Purple Blood Soft Sword falling from his grasp. He knelt on the ground, completely unable to retaliate.

"Brat, you're so ruthless at such a young age. Heaven will surely deal with you in the future!"

The Scarlet Blood Scholar, kneeling on the ground, stared intently at Su Changqing.

Su Changqing watched him silently for a moment, his figure as dark as ink, standing amidst the swirling snow.

He gazed at the snowy landscape, snowflakes drifting down.

From Youlan Pavilion all the way through the long streets of Chang'an City, a hundred-mile pursuit had left him somewhat weary.

Countless snow pine trees stood proudly, covered in white snow, lonely and cold, like a world of ice crystals.

Beneath the spring earth I'll rot, while I here live out my years in snow-white hair.

His face was handsome, clad in brocade amidst the frost and snow. His eyelashes were long, covered in snowflakes, forming fine ice crystals.

Su Changqing suddenly chuckled softly.

"A little frost, how can it stir my heart?"

A figure in black slowly approached from the distance. With the keen eyes of a falcon, they watched Su Changqing's back, their gaze chilling.

He had followed all along, and now, it was finally time to reap the rewards.

The Purple Blood Soft Sword, the Frost Snow Saber, and the heads of the Scarlet Blood Scholar and Su Changqing.

Suddenly, a flying claw attacked from his shoulder. The iron chain stretched across the sky, and under the moonlight, the flying claw glinted coldly.

Su Changqing's hair stood on end. He instantly ducked low, the iron chain an icy presence before him, chilling him to the bone.

The flying claw tore open the Scarlet Blood Scholar's chest, blood splashing everywhere. His pupils widened as he knelt on the ground.

"As expected of Centurion Su." The Iron Claw Flying Eagle sneered. He tightened his grip, swinging the chain. The flying claw struck again, whipping across the sky.

Su Changqing's thigh was instantly struck, blood blooming like a flower and splashing outward.

His gaze remained unchanged as he struck the ground with his palm.

Using the force, his body flew backward dozens of meters, entering the Great Buddha Temple through the main entrance.

"If you have the guts, come in. I'll let you die right here!"

Su Changqing's voice echoed from within the Great Buddha Temple, reverberating through the structure.

The Great Buddha Temple had been abandoned for decades. It was dim inside, with broken bricks and tiles. Normally, only the Scarlet Blood Scholar lived there.

Due to years of disrepair, the roof had a large hole, through which countless moonbeams poured down, illuminating the copper-rusted body of the great Buddha.

The Iron Claw Flying Eagle retracted his flying claw, his gaze cold as he looked at the temple before him.

"Kill you? It's as easy as pie!"
