"Whoosh!"
Just then, a black sword light struck like lightning, slicing through the black-clothed man's throat.
"Ugh..." The black-clothed man's eyes suddenly bulged, his throat gurgled, and he let out a muffled sound.
Then, his head drooped weakly, and he died on the spot.
"Who is it!" The other three black-clothed men's expressions were extremely gloomy.
"Swish—"
Black light flashed, and Jiang Wang descended from the sky, landing on the ground.
"Young Master!" The black-clothed men respectfully saluted.
The person who came was Jiang Wang.
Jiang Wang glanced at the black-clothed men and asked, "Where is your leader?"
"Reporting to Young Master, our leader was seriously injured and is recuperating in the canyon ahead," one of the black-clothed men explained.
"Oh? Where is he?" Jiang Wang raised his eyebrows.
"Southwest side of the canyon, there is a narrow mountain depression, this subordinate will take you there!"
Subsequently, two black-clothed men led the way, taking Jiang Wang towards the southwest direction of the canyon at top speed.
Soon after, the mountain depression on the southwest side of the canyon appeared in Jiang Wang's sight.
There, many corpses were piled up, indicating that there had been a great battle.
Jiang Wang stared intently, and he saw a giant python corpse lying among the mountain of corpses.
The giant python was enormous, with dark golden scales all over its body, emitting a fierce aura that was frightening.
"This... it's actually a six-star beginner-level ferocious beast!" Jiang Wang was shocked and didn't expect to encounter such a terrifying beast here!
"Gulp~~" Swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Jiang Wang turned to look at the black-clothed man beside him and said, "Let's leave quickly, it's best not to provoke it at this time."
The black-clothed man nodded lightly and said, "Okay."
The two of them supported each other, slowly walking towards the mountain stream, not daring to get close to the Black Jade Ice Crystal Python.
"Eh?" Suddenly, Jiang Wang's footsteps paused slightly, his gaze fixed on the mountain of ferocious beast corpses, and he wondered, "The blood and flesh essence of these ferocious beast corpses have been completely devoured by that Black Jade Ice Crystal Python? How is this possible? It was just born."
Jiang Wang felt his scalp tingle, "This Black Jade Ice Crystal Python's appetite is too terrifying, right?"
"Hiss!"
The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python sensed the aura of Jiang Wang and the others, and a bloodthirsty aura was projected from its scarlet snake eyes. At the same time, a powerful oppressive force surged out, instantly enveloping Jiang Wang and the others, causing their bodies to tremble.
"Something's wrong." The two black-clothed men exchanged glances, both sensing a dangerous aura.
"Huff!" The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python spat out its snake tongue, its thick body soaring like a dragon, opening its ferocious bloody mouth and pouncing over. Its huge snake tail was raised high, like a steel blade, sweeping across with destructive power.
"Run!" The black-clothed man shouted in a low voice, taking the lead to unfold his movement technique and flee backward.
At the same time, the other two black-clothed men followed, escorting Jiang Wang to retreat.
However, the Black Jade Ice Crystal Python was faster, and in just a few seconds, it caught up with them.
"Bang bang!" Two muffled sounds came out, and two black-clothed men were sent flying, spitting out a large mouthful of blood. Dense cracks appeared on the surface of their bodies, and their bodies quickly withered, obviously seriously injured.
"Roar!" The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python roared to the sky, and blood pillars spewed out from its bloody mouth, filled with a bloody smell, which was disgusting.
Jiang Wang's pupils suddenly contracted, and his expression turned pale. "Damn beast, do you really think I'm an easy target?"
"Roar!" The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python charged again, spitting out a huge poisonous ball. The venom contained terrifying toxins, and the void collapsed and annihilated wherever it passed, as if it couldn't withstand the terrifying poison.
"Humph!" Jiang Wang snorted coldly, waved his right hand, sacrificed his martial soul, and activated his martial skill "Soul Severing Slash", carrying the domineering power of purple thunder, and slashed towards the Black Jade Ice Crystal Python.
"Boom!"
With a loud noise, the poisonous ball exploded, setting off monstrous ripples that swept in all directions.
Jiang Wang was blown away, spitting out blood.
Although the poisonous ball was blocked, there was still a lot of venom remaining, corroding his body, causing him unbearable pain.
"Roar!" The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python roared angrily and attacked Jiang Wang again.
"Run!" Jiang Wang gritted his teeth, used a secret technique, and disappeared into the spot as a ray of light.
"Huh?" The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python was stunned. It had clearly locked onto its prey, so why did the prey disappear out of thin air?
"Young Master!" Beside Jiang Wang, the expressions of the two black-clothed men suddenly changed drastically.
"Whoosh!"
Just then, a purple light pierced through the air, piercing Jiang Wang's shoulder, causing blood to splatter.
"Ah!" Jiang Wang screamed, his entire arm turned into charcoal, and intense pain spread throughout his body.
At this time, Jiang Wang finally saw the attacker clearly, it was a young man!
This young man had a handsome appearance, a slender figure, and an outstanding temperament, especially his pair of dark and deep eyes, which made people feel dazed, as if falling into an abyss.
"Who are you?" Jiang Wang covered his injured shoulder, looked at Xiao Lin with a pale face, and said in an icy tone.
"Is that any of your business?" Xiao Lin shrugged, looking indifferent, as if he didn't take Jiang Wang seriously.
"Bastard!" Jiang Wang was furious. He was the dignified young patriarch of the Jiang family, when had he ever been so despised?
"Buzz~"
Jiang Wang's arms shook, and majestic Yuan Power surged out, condensing into a dark gray Yuan Spirit several feet tall behind him.
"A Yuan Dan realm peak martial artist?" A smile appeared on the corner of Xiao Lin's mouth.
Jiang Wang's cultivation was indeed very strong, only half a step away from reaching the Yuan King realm.
"Stinky brat, are you looking for death?" Jiang Wang roared and charged directly.
"Chila~~~"
Instantly, Jiang Wang's wrist flipped, and a black long knife appeared in his palm, with a cold and sharp killing intent rising from the blade.
"A seventh-grade Yuan weapon?" Xiao Lin's eyes narrowed slightly, and a playful look appeared on his face.
"Die!" Jiang Wang shouted violently, holding the long knife and slashing down, the knife's momentum was astonishing, wanting to split Xiao Lin in half with one strike.
"Rumble~~" Just then, the Black Jade Ice Crystal Python swooped down, its huge head smashing towards Jiang Wang like an iron hammer.
Jiang Wang immediately stopped his attack and quickly held his knife horizontally to block.
"Clang!"
Sparks flew everywhere, the knife and sword collided, producing a huge force of shock, causing Jiang Wang's tiger's mouth to crack and blood to flow wildly.
Taking this opportunity, Xiao Lin stepped on the Vertical and Horizontal Nine Steps movement technique, instantly moving several meters away.
Jiang Wang's strength, although much stronger than Su Kun's, was far from enough to threaten Xiao Lin.
Chapter 1384: Layout
Therefore, he was not afraid at all, and even planned to tease Jiang Wang and teach him a lesson to vent the hatred in his heart!
"Hiss!" The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python roamed inside the canyon, constantly chasing Jiang Wang.
"Get out of here!" Jiang Wang shouted violently, punching the Black Jade Ice Crystal Python's body.
"Bang!"
The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python was knocked away, its huge body collapsing a cliff.
"Roar!" The giant python roared in pain, its huge body swaying wildly, as if trying to get up.
However, at the moment it got up, a ray of bright light suddenly bloomed, illuminating the night.
It was a silver-white spear, the tip of the spear flashing with a sharp light, like a round of sun hanging high in the sky, emitting extremely sharp fluctuations.
"Whoosh!" The tip of the spear cut through the void, shot out, and pierced through the head of the Black Jade Ice Crystal Python, nailing it to the rock wall.
The Black Jade Ice Crystal Python's huge body froze, scarlet blood gurgled out, quickly staining the rock wall red, and finally fell to the ground weakly, completely losing its life.
"What a strange spear..." Jiang Wang's eyes were dull, then he raised his head and met Xiao Lin's cold eyes.
"Who exactly is this guy? How can he possess such a sharp treasure?" Jiang Wang's heart beat faster, he felt his throat dry, and couldn't help swallowing.
"You should be from the Jiang family branch in Southwest Yang Province?" Xiao Lin looked at Jiang Wang and asked.
"That's right, I am the Third Young Master of the Jiang family branch, Jiang Wang!" Jiang Wang nodded.
"Hehe, so your surname is Jiang!" Xiao Lin smiled and said, "Do you recognize this spear?"
While speaking, Xiao Lin spread out his palm, and the dark green ring lying in his palm was the storage ring.
Jiang Wang's eyelids jumped suddenly, his eyes rolled, and he asked, "What do you want to do?"
"What do you think?" Xiao Lin grinned, and then clenched his palm, and the storage ring was separated from Jiang Wang's hand.
Jiang Wang's eyes were flustered, and he quickly shouted, "Friend, we don't interfere with each other, please don't get angry, otherwise my father and my elder brother will definitely not let you go."
Hearing this, Xiao Lin stopped his movements and said with interest, "Oh? It seems that your Jiang family is not weak in Yang City!"
Jiang Wang breathed a sigh of relief, pondered for a moment, and said in a low voice, "My Jiang family is the head of the five major families in Yang City, and the head of the family is even a two-star Yukong Martial Monarch, with terrifying strength."
After a pause, Jiang Wang continued, "I advise you not to provoke me, otherwise the consequences will be very serious!"
"Hehe, it seems that the Yang City Jiang family is also a force to be reckoned with." Xiao Lin shook his head and smiled, not worried at all.
Jiang Wang frowned and said, "Who exactly are you? Since you know that my Jiang family is strong, how dare you be so unscrupulous? Aren't you afraid of attracting a fatal disaster?"
"Jiang Wang, aren't you exaggerating a bit?"
Xiao Lin curled his lips and said with a look of disdain, "As far as I know, your Jiang family can only rank in the top 100 in Southwest Yang Province, so why should I be afraid?"
Hearing this, Jiang Wang's face changed slightly.
Yang City is divided into three major regions: Dongling, Nanman, and Beihuang.
Each region is controlled by major sects. Except for Dongling and Nanman, the remaining two regions are civilian areas with scarce resources and weak strength, and are not qualified to participate in the competition at all.
Therefore, Southwest Yang Province is second only to the two major regions of Dongling and Nanman.
