Hidden Blade

Chapter 526 Buying And Selling

The phoenix phantom formed from sword intent and spirit flames whistled out from Ye Hongjian's sword again.

In this stance, she activated her true essence and sword intent, and the aura she displayed was several points stronger than before.

The vines that were like poisonous snakes attacking the two of them were cut into pieces one after another in front of the phoenix phantom, and then burned to ashes by the Spiritual Flames.

Although the power of the vines had been reduced by a few points, the Phoenix phantom did not stop after destroying the vines. He let out a long cry and charged straight at the old man in green standing at the corner of the street.

The Spiritual Flames burning all over its body carried an extremely high temperature. Wherever it passed, the rainwater that covered a radius of several zhang was completely evaporated in the air that was more than ten zhang away from it, turning into white smoke that rose up.

As a result, the streets in the rainy night were easily enveloped in a layer of mist.

The green-robed old man standing at the corner of the street looked at the howling phoenix silhouette. For the first time, some changes appeared on his ice-cold, statue-like face.

The corners of his mouth twitched slightly, and two cold words spat out from his mouth.

"Stupid."

He could clearly see that although Ye Hongjian's move was powerful, it had almost exhausted all the true essence in her body. This move was far from being able to defeat him. As long as he blocked this move, the girl would be the lamb on the chopping board to be slaughtered, allowing him to handle it.

With this thought in mind, he slowly stretched out his hand.

However, that seemingly slow movement was extremely accurate as it pressed down on the Phoenix phantom's head before the Phoenix phantom collided with his body.

The flaming phoenix phantom and the divine fire spirit flame that could cut through the rain curtain were as ridiculous as chickens in front of the old man's old hand.

It stopped.

It was as if he had encountered an invisible but real heavenly chasm, and the Phoenix phantom stopped.

In the next moment, a sorrowful cry came out from its mouth, and its body completely turned into powder as the old man's hand clenched slightly, disappearing in all directions like a flowing light.

"So many years, have you learned this ability?" The old man asked with narrowed eyes.

He was dressed in a long azure robe, floating in the night wind and rain, like a ghost crawling out of hell, murmuring to strangers.

"Of course not!"

The one who responded to him was not Ye Hongjian, but Xu Han's furious roar.

In the afterglow of the Phoenix phantom's body dissipating, the youth's figure suddenly appeared.

He leapt up high, clenched his fist in his right arm, and the veins on his fist burst out.

It was clear that this punch had condensed the strength of Xu Han's entire body.

The azure-robed old man's eyes narrowed at that moment, and a strange light flashed in his eyes.

In this short moment, Xu Han's fist had already arrived in front of him.

Seeing that this punch was about to shake the old man's body, the next moment, the old man's body suddenly disappeared.

At this moment, Xu Han's fist landed on the ground where the old man had just stood.

Boom!

A loud noise rang out.

The bluestone-paved street was blasted open by Xu Han's punch. Dust rose from the sky, but the true force was far more than that. After a few breaths, cracks spread through the pits where Xu Han's fist was. The houses on both sides of the street were actually shaken by the aftershocks and were on the verge of collapse.

The people hiding in the house let out cries of alarm and hurriedly fled from this place.

The corner of Xu Han's eyes lit up as golden sword shadows surged out from the wooden box behind him. They flew towards the two streets, cutting the huge rubble that collapsed when the houses collapsed into pieces to cover for the civilians to escape from this troubled place.

After doing all of this, Xu Han looked at the old man in green who was standing not far away. At this moment, he finally said the first thing he said after meeting the old man. He asked him, "Who are you?"

The old man seemed to have been waiting for Xu Han, and he didn't rush to make a move after that.

Hearing this, a smile appeared on the corner of the old man's mouth. He looked up at Xu Han and asked meaningfully, "Who am I? Can't you tell?"

Xu Han's expression became gloomier and gloomier. He stared at the old man and said resolutely, "You're not him! Who exactly are you?"

"Hmph." The old man snorted coldly. At that time, a green robe stirred up again. The ground beneath his feet began to bulge and shatter as the true essence poured into his body. After a few breaths, hundreds of giant vines broke through the ground like poisonous snakes. They twisted and rotated in front of him, but they weren't in a hurry to attack.

The old man looked at Xu Han with great interest, and then glanced at the people around him who had successfully escaped under the cover of the golden sword shadow stimulated by Xu Han. The smile on the corner of his lips gradually became somewhat ferocious.

"I'm not me."

"But you're still you."

"On the surface, he said that he wanted to be ruthless, but he couldn't endure the ancestor's desire to do something for some unrelated people."

"I thought that after experiencing so many things, you would somewhat change, but I don't want you to always have a bad memory."

When the old man said this, he shook his head regretfully.

But in the next moment, his hand suddenly stretched out and several vines whistled towards Xu Han.

Xu Han's heart trembled as he didn't dare to hold it up. The black sword was placed across his chest.

Clang!

A crisp sound echoed out. Although Xu Han was extremely vigilant in blocking the attack of the vine, the enormous force carried by the vine was still transmitted to his body through the sword. His face turned pale, and his body involuntarily flew backwards, heavily falling to the ground.

"If it weren't for your soft-heartedness in the Gu Forest back then, why would your friend still be lying in bed now?"

"If it wasn't for the fact that you couldn't bear to kill Qin Keqing back then, why would Yuan Xiucheng choose you? Now that you've already completed five years of Asura cultivation, redeem yourself and live a peaceful life of your own .."

"It's a miracle that you're able to survive until now."

At that moment, the old man seemed to have been opened up. He kept speaking softly, and his footsteps slowly moved towards Xu Han, who had been knocked to the ground and was wrapped around by the vines, unable to move at the same time.

Very quickly, he arrived in front of Xu Han. He looked down at the disgruntled youth from above.

Even though his expression was full of ridicule, it was filled with a trace of pity.

"Since you like saving people so much, why don't I give you a chance.."

"Die .."

"Then give this world a chance to live."

"It's a good deal, isn't it?"
