Dusk Fine Rain Saber Technique, A Blade Leaves Its Mark

"There shouldn't be such dense Yin Sha Qi here. It seems there really might be a Blood Demon Flower like you said."

Liu Wumei said, looking around.

A smile also appeared on her face; she couldn't have come all this way for nothing.

"The Yin Sha Qi is most intense over there. Let's go take a look."

Liu Wumei pointed in the direction ahead.

Such keen senses. This Liu Wumei is at least in the Spirit Refining Realm?

Su Chen thought to himself.

What is Spirit Refining? It's cultivating divine sense, which enhances a martial artist's keen insight and perception of the surrounding vital energy.

Liu Wumei could clearly sense the source of the Yin Sha Qi.

She had definitely reached the Spirit Refining Realm.

Although Spirit Refining Realm experts were no match for Bai Tianyu, being "one slash each," they were still powerful figures to Su Chen.

Liu Wumei paid no mind to Su Chen's reaction and concealed her figure, heading towards the source of the Yin Sha Qi.

"Blood Cloud Yin Sha Banner!"

Liu Wumei suddenly stopped as she was moving forward, looking not far ahead.

Su Chen also looked into the distance.

Nine banners were planted in different locations, with the Yin Sha Qi converging within them, while some residual Yin Sha Qi spread outwards.

"The Blood Demon Flower is inside."

At this moment, Liu Wumei confirmed Su Chen's words.

"Aren't you going to take a look?"

Su Chen wanted to see what the Blood Demon Flower looked like and its maturity.

"Someone's coming!"

Just then, Liu Wumei pulled Su Chen and hid behind a nearby rock.

Two figures walked in from outside.

One of them was Lei Yao from Lei Hall, and the other figure wore a black bamboo hat, obscuring their face.

"Emissary, if the Void Nether Ore is sufficient, the precious medicine inside should mature within two days," Lei Yao said, bowing.

"You've handled this matter well. I'll go see what it is. If it is indeed a precious medicine, I will introduce you to the sect," the black-robed figure said.

Their voice was deep, making it impossible to tell their age.

"Thank you, Emissary!"

Lei Yao accompanied the emissary into the Blood Cloud Yin Sha Banner.

"It seems Qin Hao is just paving the way for someone else!"

Su Chen watched the scene unfold and spoke.

Su Chen felt a trace of interest towards this newly appeared black-clothed figure.

Qingcheng City was truly full of hidden talents, with many people operating in the shadows.

"That person's strength is no simple matter. We need to be careful," Liu Wumei whispered.

"Then are we still going in to look?" Su Chen asked.

"Regardless of whether it's a Blood Demon Flower or not, the item inside is bound to be extraordinary. It will mature in two days, so we can simply come back then," Liu Wumei said.

"Let's go!"

Liu Wumei said, and then prepared to lead Su Chen back the way they came.

However, as she was leading Su Chen back, a figure emerged from within the Blood Cloud Banner.

"You've arrived, and now you want to leave? Do you think you can? When I just entered, I smelled a strange fragrance, and I didn't expect someone to actually be hiding in the shadows."

The speaker was the man wearing a bamboo hat, just like Su Chen.

Just as he stepped inside the Yin Sha Banner, a breeze stirred in the valley, and he caught a faint, lingering scent.

Liu Wumei, having spent a long time in Yuchun Courtyard, had inevitably picked up some of its fragrance.

Perhaps it was due to years of complacency that she had lost her former caution.

Lei Yao also appeared behind him, his eyes fixed intently on Su Chen and the others.

"I'll take on the black-robed man, you handle Lei Mu, and we'll break out?"

Liu Wumei transmitted her voice.

"Handle what! Let's run!"

At this very moment, Su Chen turned and sprinted towards the entrance of the valley.

"This!"

Su Chen's actions stunned Liu Wumei, the black-robed man, and the others.

Liu Wumei turned and quickly followed.

"Run? You think you can escape?"

The black-robed man said coldly.

In an instant, he moved with unparalleled speed, chasing after them as if hunting prey.

Lei Mu quickly followed and let out a low roar, blocking their path.

At this moment.

Su Chen was in front. Some guards wielding sabers saw Su Chen advancing and immediately slashed at him. But Su Chen raised his hand, twisted his palm, and grabbed the guard's arm.

Crack! He directly crushed the guard's wrist and seized the sabre that was swung at him.

Then, with a flick of the sabre, a gash appeared on the neck of the Lei Hall guard who had charged forward.

Thump!

The guard's corpse fell to the ground.

Although these were Lei Hall elites, they hadn't reached the Innate Realm.

They were no match for Su Chen.

Liu Wumei, following behind Su Chen, saw his killing technique, and a flash of light appeared in her beautiful eyes.

She twisted her waist, and a soft sword instantly appeared. She shot forward, her sword transforming into dozens of shadows that pierced the vital points of the guards who tried to intercept them.

Chit chit!

Those blocking them fell to the ground.

She raised her hand to call out to Su Chen, but he had already exited the valley.

He hadn't even glanced her way.

Seeing this, she immediately followed.

But no matter what, these people had managed to slow Su Chen and the others down for a while.

After they exited the valley.

The black-robed man caught up to Su Chen and the others.

"You saw something you shouldn't have, so you must die!"

The next moment, the black-robed man struck out at Liu Wumei.

Seeing this, Liu Wumei circulated her internal energy into her long sword and slashed it out, her sword energy crisscrossing the air.

The opponent's palm glowed black, and his internal energy flowed around it.

It clashed head-on with Liu Wumei's sword energy.

As the two sides collided, a powerful surge of energy erupted from their point of contact, forming a wave of air.

These two exchanged few words before unleashing their attacks.

The battle immediately entered a white-hot stage.

Su Chen watched from the side, his brow furrowed. The black-robed man's attacks were fierce and sharp, his moves ruthless, and he showed no fear of Liu Wumei's sword energy.

Furthermore, his movement techniques were incredibly strange.

If this continued, Liu Wumei would likely be suppressed.

"Let me see how strong you are?"

Just as Su Chen was thinking this, Lei Yao, who had accompanied the black-robed man, stomped on the ground and shot out, his hands forming claws as he lunged at Su Chen.

This matter could not be revealed.

Bringing the black-robed man to this valley to see the precious medicine was done behind Lei Hall's back.

If it were leaked, Lei Mu would definitely kill him.

Even if Lei Mu spared him, Qin Hao definitely wouldn't.

Therefore, he had to deal with the person in front of him.

From the traces he saw earlier, this person's strength was likely at the Innate Realm, and he could handle him.

So he attacked first.

He intended to take down Su Chen.

As Lei Yao threw a punch at him, a cold glint flashed in Su Chen's eyes.

He instantly brought down the long saber he had snatched earlier.

A saber aura appeared, not sharp and fierce, but like fine rain.

Since he had made a move, Su Chen naturally had to display his strength.

Not for others to see, but for Liu Wumei, to let her know some of his capabilities.

Su Chen had already comprehended the Dusk Fine Rain Saber Technique when he had previously strengthened the Fine Rain Blade.

Now that he made his move, executing the Dusk Fine Rain Saber Technique was effortless.

The saber emerged, like a continuous drizzle.

Lei Yao, who had been attacking Su Chen, froze.

He was about to say something, perhaps to call out the name of the saber technique.

But the originally drizzling saber technique suddenly became rapid, the saber light like a waterfall, colliding with the energy of his palm.

This left Lei Yao no chance to speak.

Clang!

Lei Yao was forced back by the strike.

His expression darkened, and a blue aura surged from his palm.

He intended to attack again.

But Su Chen gave him no opportunity.

He had already appeared before Lei Yao and struck again. At that moment, Lei Yao heard the sound of fine rain by his ear, and saw a twilight glow in his eyes.

At this, Lei Yao's face changed drastically, a deathly sense of terror rising within him.

His aura circulated, and he raised his hand, intending to punch.

But the twilight glow flashed in his eyes, instantly blinding him.

Ch!

When the light faded, a bloody gash appeared on his throat.

"You are? How can you...?"

Lei Yao clutched his throat, trying to say something to Su Chen.
