Conferred Gods: Master Tongtian is my master

Chapter 385 Sword Slash, Retreat

Suddenly, the flying sword in Chi Jingzi's hand suddenly changed direction like a living thing, with a hint of coldness and determination. With a crisp and cold "puff", it cut through the air and also cut through Zhang Shao's arm.

Blood instantly flowed out like a trickle, staining his sleeves red, dripping onto the ground, splashing tiny blood flowers.

Wang Bian's heart suddenly tightened, as if being tightly grasped by an invisible hand. His eyes focused, and his figure almost instantly turned into a shadow, and he came to Zhang Shao like lightning.

His face was full of concern and anxiety, and his voice was trembling: "Junior brother, how are you? Are you hurt?"

Zhang Shao forced a smile. Although the pain made his face pale, he still tried his best to make his tone sound relaxed:

"Don't worry, brother. It's just a little scrape. It's nothing serious."

Although his words were light-hearted, the cold sweat on his forehead and his slightly trembling arms betrayed his physical pain.

After saying this, he opened his eyes wide with anger, staring at Chi Jingzi opposite him, "Chi Jingzi, how dare you plot against me!"

"Humph, do I need to plot against you? Ridiculous!" Chi Jingzi sneered, his eyes flashing with contempt, "How boring! This battle should end."

"Since you think so highly of your own strength, I will let you know what the strength of a Daluo Jinxian is!"

After saying this, his body shook slightly, and the spiritual energy in his body surging like a river, flowing to its extreme.

Immediately afterwards, a tremendous momentum surged out of his body, like a mountain torrent, unstoppable.

He activated the strength of the late stage of the Golden Immortal in his body and waved his arm. Suddenly, several sword energies swept towards Wang Bian like a tornado.

Wang Bian was shocked when he saw this. He knew that Chi Jingzi's strength was far beyond what he and Zhang Shao could match. But he could not watch Chi Jingzi hurt his junior brother again.

He took a deep breath, and the spiritual power of the middle stage Taiyi Golden Immortal surged in his body. He quickly formed seals with his hands and sacrificed a defensive low-grade acquired spiritual treasure - the Mo Yunzhu.

Wang Bian injected his spiritual power into it, and the spiritual treasure instantly burst into dazzling light, forming an indestructible barrier in an attempt to resist the overwhelming sword energy.

"Dangdangdang--" the sword energy collided with the barrier, making a deafening sound of metallic clashing.

Wang Bian gritted his teeth and tried his best to maintain the stability of the barrier.

"Can't...can't let this barrier break..." He muttered in his heart, every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, with unyielding and determination. However, reality is often more cruel than imagined.

"Crack--" A slight cracking sound quietly rang in the air, like the first sound of ice cracking in winter, foreshadowing something ominous.

Wang Bian's face suddenly changed. He felt the cracks appearing on the barrier, which was an irreparable damage.

Several sharp sword energies, like the brightest meteors in the night sky, carried a deadly chill. They penetrated the gaps in the barrier and attacked Wang Bian at lightning speed.

"Puff——" A mouthful of blood spurted out from Wang Bian's mouth. His body staggered and his face instantly turned as pale as paper.

"Senior Brother!" Zhang Shao exclaimed, his eyes filled with worry and anger.

He hurriedly took a step forward and stretched out an arm to hold up Wang Bian's shaky body. "Brother, you...how are you?"

Wang Bian shook his head and forced a smile. His lips moved slightly, as if he was consuming a lot of energy to say each word.

"Junior brother, I... I'm afraid I can't do it anymore."

Zhang Shao's eyes instantly turned red when he heard this, but he tried hard not to let the tears fall.

"Brother, you will be fine." As he spoke, he took out a pill emitting a faint light from his arms.

"Brother, stop talking and take this pill first!" Zhang Shao said in an unquestionable tone.

He carefully handed the pill to Wang Bian's mouth and gently pried open his lips and teeth with trembling fingers.

Wang Bian swallowed the pill with difficulty. The pill melted in his mouth and a warm breath slid down his throat, as if a trace of vitality was quietly reviving in his body.

However, his face was still pale and his breath was still weak.

"Junior brother, let's retreat first! Chi Jingzi's strength... is too strong. Even if... you and I join forces... we are not... his match." He spoke intermittently, and every word seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth.

Zhang Shao clenched his fists, his knuckles making slight crackling sounds as he exerted force. His eyes flashed with unprecedented determination and anger.

"Brother, don't worry! Even if it costs my life, I will make Chi Jingzi pay the price!" As he said that, he raised his head and looked at Chi Jingzi with hatred in his eyes.

Wang Bian slowly raised his head and looked at Zhang Shao with a gratified look, "Junior brother...be careful...Chi Jingzi...he..."

Before he could finish his words, his eyelids slowly closed and his body fell limply into Zhang Shao's arms.

"Senior Brother! Senior Brother!" Zhang Shao called out in horror. He couldn't help but shed tears, dripping onto Wang Bian's lifeless face.

He stood up slowly and gently placed Wang Bian on the ground.

“Chi Jingzi!” Zhang Shao gritted his teeth and called out the name, his voice full of hatred and determination, “Give me back my brother’s life!”

As Zhang Shao finished his words, he moved as fast as a cheetah.

The two flying knives in his hands were infused with spiritual power, and instantly flashed with dazzling light, flying towards Chi Jingzi like two lightning bolts.

The flying knife drew a graceful arc in the air and headed straight for Chi Jingzi's vital point with a fierce murderous aura.

Chi Jingzi looked calm, staring coldly at the flying knife, with a hint of contempt in his eyes. He raised his hand slightly, with a faint light flashing at his fingertips.

Just when the two flying knives were about to touch him, they seemed to be blocked by an invisible force, their speed suddenly slowed down, and then they fell to the ground weakly.

Zhang Shao's face changed. He didn't expect Chi Jingzi to be so powerful.

But he did not give up. He gathered his spiritual power again and prepared to launch a more violent attack.

However, at this moment, Chi Jingzi moved and appeared in front of Zhang Shao like a ghost.

Zhang Shao only felt a flash before his eyes, and before he could react, he had lost sight of Chi Jingzi.

"Chi Jingzi, if you have the guts, come out! How can you be a hero if you keep hiding!" Zhang Shao shouted loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, he tried to step back, but found that his body seemed to be restrained by an invisible force and he could not move at all.

Chi Jingzi looked at Zhang Shao coldly, his eyes revealing a chill that made people's heart palpitate. He slowly raised the long sword in his hand,

"After all, you and I are both disciples of Xuanmen. In that case, I will give you a ride!" Chi Jingzi said lightly, without any emotional fluctuation in his voice.

After saying that, he swung the sword in his hand down suddenly, bringing up a sharp sword wind.

"you……"

As soon as he uttered a word, Zhang Shao felt a black screen in front of his eyes, and then he lost all consciousness.

With a crisp "crack" sound, Zhang Shao's head fell to the ground, and blood splattered everywhere, staining the surrounding ground red.

Chi Jingzi looked at Zhang Shao lying on the ground, with a hint of disdain and indifference in his eyes.

He gently swung the sword in his hand to shake off the blood on the sword, then with a flash of white light, he put the sword away.

At this moment, Wen Zhong witnessed all this, and a complicated look flashed in his eyes.

Without waiting for Chi Jingzi to provoke him again, he waved his hand and ordered in a deep voice: "Sound the horn to withdraw the troops, and hang up the banner of no war!"

As Wen Zhong's order came out, a burst of rapid gong and drum sounds rang out. The soldiers retreated one after another as if they had been pardoned, and soon disappeared from sight.

Chi Jingzi stared coldly at their departing backs, with a hint of disdain in his eyes.

Seeing this, the soldiers in the Zhou army camp were stunned for a moment, and then burst into cheers.

They gathered around and looked at Chi Jingzi with admiration and worship. Someone shouted loudly: "The immortal is mighty!"
