Chapter 12: Killing the Master, Saved by the Dragon Maiden

The development of this situation exceeded the expectations of Little Dragon Maiden and Li Mochou.

No one expected that what was originally a grudge between sisters would actually develop into a scene of the Quanzhen Sect purging its own disciples!

However, Li Mochou’s face soon filled with mockery.

Sometimes, watching a show was a kind of enjoyment.

Little Dragon Maiden’s gaze tightened slightly. She was not worried about Wei Ziqing. Although she could see that he was seriously injured, at this moment, he was definitely not someone that Zhao Zhijing could handle!

What she cared more about was what exactly had happened to Wei Ziqing during this period of time? Why had things evolved to this point?

“You want to kill me?” Looking at Zhao Zhijing, who was filled with killing intent with every step, Wei Ziqing’s face was full of cold sneers. He then stepped forward to meet him: “I want to see how you plan to purge me!”

Zhao Zhijing became flustered, and the shock on his face grew even stronger.

He never imagined that Wei Ziqing actually knew martial arts, and that his cultivation was not weak!

Facing his killing intent, Wei Ziqing acted with ease. However, soon, when he saw Wei Ziqing’s sword technique, he suddenly cried out: “Quanzhen Sword Art!”

“Quanzhen Sword Art!”

Hearing Zhao Zhijing’s words, the eyes of the Quanzhen disciples narrowed one by one, and their faces were filled with shock.

They then watched Wei Ziqing’s sword technique carefully, and their expressions became strange.

The Quanzhen Sword Art was named after Quanzhen and was an upper-level sword technique of the Quanzhen Sect. It could not be learned unless one was a core disciple. Yet Wei Ziqing’s identity was merely that of a Menial Disciple; how could he know the Quanzhen Sword Art?

Other than stealing the knowledge, what else could be the reason?

Qiu Chuji’s face was terribly gloomy. He stood to the side without saying a word, but anyone could see that his eyes were already full of killing intent.

“So that’s how it is. No wonder you wanted to kill Qingdu. It turns out Qingdu discovered your secret, and you wanted to kill him to silence him. With such a vicious heart, I cannot let you go!” Zhao Zhijing sneered.

This kid was indeed a heartless thing, worse than a beast!

Little Dragon Maiden’s delicate body trembled slightly, and her face was filled with a complex expression.

How could she not know how Wei Ziqing learned the Quanzhen Sword Art?

Months of silent companionship, sword dances under the moon.

The gift of the Quanzhen Great Dao Song.

And just now, he had risked his life to save her.

Now, because of her, he was being hunted by Quanzhen Daoists.

“So, all of this was caused by me?” Even though Little Dragon Maiden had reached a state of a heart as still as water, without joy or anger, her heart felt quite complex at this moment.

Wei Ziqing did not speak. The sword techniques in his hand became increasingly sharp. He was only a Second-Rate Expert, though half a step away from First-Class, but he was an injured person. However, this did not matter.

Fighting Zhao Zhijing was merely a way for him to temper his sword techniques. As the two fought fiercely, everyone present could see that Zhao Zhijing was gradually losing the advantage. Conversely, Wei Ziqing’s momentum became even stronger.

“Damn it, how is this possible? How can this little beast’s martial arts be so powerful that he is even stronger than me!” Cold sweat poured down Zhao Zhijing’s face. He knew that Wei Ziqing was injured.

More importantly, how long had he been practicing martial arts? Only half a year!

How was this possible!

“Die!” In the moment Zhao Zhijing was dazed, Wei Ziqing’s eyes suddenly brightened, and his sword flashed. In an instant, the longsword bypassed Zhao Zhijing’s sword like a ghost and pointed straight at Zhao Zhijing’s chest!

“Not good!”

“Damn it!”

“You wretched creature, first you abandoned your master, and now you actually dare to kill your master!”

Seeing that Zhao Zhijing was about to die at the hands of Wei Ziqing, everyone’s expressions changed drastically.

Even Li Mochou was startled.

Abandoning a master and killing a master were two completely different concepts. If Wei Ziqing really killed Zhao Zhijing, he would probably have no place to stay in the Wulin from this day forward!

“You wretched creature, today this Old Daoist will handle you personally!” Qiu Chuji finally could not hold back. His entire body leaped up like a giant eagle spreading its wings and pounced toward Wei Ziqing.

“Damn it!”

A flash of unwillingness appeared on Wei Ziqing’s face.

Killing a master? Why would he care? At worst, he would wait three years in this world and then return to the real world. What did it matter how this world viewed him?

He wanted to kill Zhao Zhijing simply because the man deserved to die!

But seeing that Qiu Chuji ignored his status and attacked directly, Wei Ziqing’s face became ferocious.

“Qiu Chuji, didn’t you want to save Zhao Zhijing? In that case, I want to see if you can actually save him!”

If it were anyone else, they would definitely withdraw the sword to protect themselves, but Wei Ziqing’s eyes were red with anger. At this moment, he only wanted to kill Zhao Zhijing.

Puchi!

Peng!

The first sound was Wei Ziqing’s longsword piercing into Zhao Zhijing’s chest.

The second was the sound of Qiu Chuji hitting Wei Ziqing with a full-power palm strike!

“Not good!”

“Brother Wei!”

Two cries rang out; the first was from Little Dragon Maiden, and the second was from Yang Guo!

No one could have imagined that Wei Ziqing would endure a palm strike from a First-Rate Expert like Qiu Chuji just to kill Zhao Zhijing!

Seeing Wei Ziqing’s body fly backward and about to hit the ground, Little Dragon Maiden finally moved. Her figure drifted up, and her white silk ribbon shifted to wrap around Wei Ziqing’s body. Taking advantage of everyone’s shock, she also rescued Yang Guo and rushed rapidly toward the entrance of the Ancient Tomb.

The fastest to react was Li Mochou, but even so, Little Dragon Maiden’s actions left her stunned. She never expected that Little Dragon Maiden would save Wei Ziqing.

Realizing this, her face turned cold, and her Soul-Freezing Silver Needles shot out: “Junior Sister, what’s the rush? Stay and chat with your Senior Sister!”

Facing the sound of air breaking behind her, Little Dragon Maiden did not look back. With a wave of her sleeve, she blocked several silver needles, quickly entered the Ancient Tomb, and lowered the Dragon-Breaking Stone.

“Damn it!” Looking at Little Dragon Maiden, who had still managed to escape, Li Mochou cursed inwardly. She glanced at Qiu Chuji and the others and left immediately!

Zhao Zhijing stared blankly at the large sword wound in his chest, his face full of terror and disbelief. He did not understand why, why Wei Ziqing could kill him?

Why, why did he dare to kill him?

Why!

Zhao Zhijing covered his chest unwillingly and slowly lay down, leaving behind a group of Quanzhen disciples who had not yet recovered from the shock.

“Zhijing!” Qiu Chuji’s eyes were bloodshot. Looking at the dead Zhao Zhijing, his killing intent surged: “Wei Ziqing, I will make you pay in blood!”

The people of the Quanzhen Sect left, departing with a heavy and gloomy killing intent!

Zhen Zhibing’s expression was complex. To be honest, he was quite happy in his heart about Zhao Zhijing’s death, but when he looked at the Ancient Tomb, his expression became gloomy.

“Little Dragon Maiden…” A flash of madness appeared in his eyes. No one knew what Zhen Zhibing was thinking.
