A Sudden Twist

The strike was clean and swift, mainly because the hiding place was well-concealed, and no one noticed the presence of the person in the grass.

This sudden turn of events startled Huang Qiaoshan and Gao Xingqiu.

Gao Xingqiu looked at the young man and felt that he looked somewhat familiar. He had sharp features and a pair of sword-like eyebrows.

Huang Qiaoshan also felt that the man looked somewhat familiar, but he couldn't quite place him. "You are...?"

Huang Qiaoshan gave a cold shout.

Just then, the young man holding the Wolf Head Saber threw it out like a hidden weapon. Although he didn't use any Law Technique, the swing itself carried a powerful force.

Huang Qiaoshan felt a chill and dodged to the side.

The young man pounced on him, slamming his fists into his protective shield.

His punches were swift as the wind, his Qi and Blood scorching, and he broke through Huang Qiaoshan's protective barrier in just a few breaths.

Huang Qiaoshan was horrified. He took out his long rope, looped it around the man's neck, and tightened it sharply, intending to strangle the young man to death! But the young man was faster; his hands, like hooks, grabbed Huang Qiaoshan's face! With a tearing sound, the skin on Huang Qiaoshan's face was ripped off, and he screamed in agony! "Ahhhhhh!"

He was momentarily distracted and didn't tighten the rope quickly enough. The man's neck was like cast iron; without exerting full force, he remained unfazed! Huang Qiaoshan's eyes had been torn off by the man's earlier grab, and most of the skin on his face had been ripped away, exposing his gums. He looked extremely miserable.

Then the young man spread his five fingers and pinched Huang Qiaoshan's head. With a bang, Huang Qiaoshan's head exploded, and bone fragments mixed with blood and blood scattered all over the ground! This young man was Chen Wang.

He secretly planned to report this to the Red Cloud Sect Red Cloud Sect and use the opportunity to establish a connection with them.

They happened to witness Gao Xingqiu being surrounded and attacked.

When Gao Xingqiu encountered these people last time, he didn't want to involve innocent people. Although it was just a brief encounter, Chen Wang still had a fairly good impression of them.

This seemingly honest-looking man intended to use him as a substitute for someone else's head, which made Chen Wang extremely disgusted with him.

However, he had exhausted much of his Law Power, so he lay in wait to the side, and would not come to his rescue unless there was a suitable opportunity.

Seeing Gao Xingqiu shatter the effeminate man's protective barrier with the Five Thunder Talisman, Chen Wang immediately stealthily approached.

Within a few breaths, both of them were dead!

The two Wrathful Ghost were extremely powerful. After the Profound Yin Sect man died, they pounced directly on Chen Wang! Chen Wang had scorching Blood Qi on his body. He activated the Dark Combat Armor to its limit. His body crackled and popped. His body size increased dramatically, and his muscles bulged. He instantly transformed from a sturdy young man into a burly and strong man.

He slashed directly at the two Wrathful Ghost, shouting, "Brother, bring on a few more bolts of lightning!"

Gao Xingqiu was seriously injured at this time. He tried his best to activate the Five Thunder Talisman, but this time he only managed to force out a wisp of lightning, which struck the Wrathful Ghost ghost!

Chen Wang's lips twitched. "That's all?"

Seeing that someone was coming to his rescue, Gao Xingqiu gritted his teeth and charged forward, sustaining several new wounds, none of which were fatal.

Chen Wang took out the Thunder Accumulation Wood from his Storage Bag, holding the Thunderstruck Wood in one hand and the Wolf Head Saber in the other. He poured his scorching Blood Qi into it and spent some time finally killing the two Wrathful Ghost!

After a series of battles, Chen Wang felt extremely exhausted.

Without the slightest hesitation, he took out the pill again and swallowed it.

His physical strength was fine; he was physically powerful and had great strength. However, his Law Power was almost completely depleted.

Moreover, the Genetic Ability required a lot of effort, mainly due to the significant mental strain from fighting ghosts.

"Thank you for your help, brother!"

Gao Xingqiu clasped his hands in a fist salute.

In the world of cultivators, Daoist friends are usually referred to as Daoists. Gao Xingqiu was born in the army and has been in the martial arts world, and he carries a strong aura of the martial arts.

"You're too kind. I overheard the whole thing. A friend like that is treacherous and deserves to die!"

"Moreover, I need to report to the Red Cloud Sect. Fellow Daoist has been entrusted by the Red Cloud Sect, and I cannot stand by and watch him die."

Chen Wang said righteously.

Now that his Qi and Blood had calmed down, he held a large knife in his hand and, while speaking, quickly stole the belongings from the two men and put them on his own.

Murder and looting corpses are basic operations, so Gao Xingqiu wasn't surprised.

He cupped his hands in a respectful gesture to Chen Wang once more. "Tonight I was betrayed by a friend, but unexpectedly I was saved by you, brother. If you ever need anything in the future, come to me, and I will do whatever you ask!"

Although he was injured, he exuded a heroic spirit.

Chen Wang smiled and said, "My Chen Wang. If I ever need your help in the future, just don't forget to acknowledge me."

Gao Xingqiu was taken aback for a moment, then said, "Absolutely not."

He had a good impression of the young man who suddenly made a move.

Chen Wang said, "I've been asked to deliver a message to the Red Cloud Sect. Brother Gao, why don't we go together?"

This person addressed him as "brother," and Chen Wang no longer addressed him as "fellow Daoist," but used a very ordinary form of address.

Gao Xingqiu nodded. "Alright, but I'm quite badly injured, so I'm afraid it might cause problems."

Gao Xingqiu took out some pills from his person and swallowed them. He also had some pills on him to stop bleeding and heal wounds, and his complexion instantly became rosier.

Chen Wang shook his head. "It's alright, I'm strong enough to carry you."

Then, a young man carrying a figure quickly disappeared into the mountains and wilderness! Chen Wang's strength was such that lifting a man was not difficult at all; it made little difference whether he lifted him or not.

In this situation, Chen Wang felt it was better to bring someone along than to rely on empty words.

Gao Xingqiu was entrusted by the Red Cloud Sect, which inherently placed an extra layer of trust on him.

This was much better than Chen Wang going there rashly on his own, which was part of the reason he was saved.

Gao Xingqiu was also a tough guy. He didn't utter a sound while being carried by Chen Wang. They quickly arrived at the location of the Red Cloud Sect.

It was a huge archway platform, where four disciples stood with swords in hand. They looked extremely young, yet possessed extraordinary bearing.

"Who goes there! Breaking into the mountains at night!"

One of the disciples immediately shouted in a cold voice.

Sure enough... coming to deliver a message so rashly, who knows what they've encountered... Chen Wang thought to himself.

Time was too short, and the female cultivator did not give her any token.

At this moment, Gao Xingqiu stepped in. He took out a token and handed it over, saying in a deep voice, "Gao Xingqiu, a rogue cultivator, has been entrusted by the elder to report something important to my brother!"

The token in his hand was unique to the Red Cloud Sect, and Gao Xingqiu himself had been frequently visiting the Red Cloud Sect recently, so the disciples guarding the mountain also knew him.

However, Gao Xingqiu had been held in someone's hand earlier, so he hadn't seen clearly at the moment.

With Gao Xingqiu's endorsement, things became much easier, and they were led to a courtyard.

A middle-aged man with graying temples received them. He looked somewhat refined and said calmly, "What news is this, a message sent so late at night?"

Chen Wang immediately said, "I have been entrusted by Fellow Daoist Su Jie to report that the Profound Yin Sect is planning an uprising tonight!"

The middle-aged man raised an eyebrow. "Where's Su Jie?"

Chen Wang said, "She was entangled by a man named Feng Qi from the Profound Yin Sect. The two fought each other all the way into the mountains, and I don't know where she is now."

A murderous intent flashed in the middle-aged man's eyes. "Feng Qi!"
