Chapter 143: Cowardice

ick his lips."It's been so long since I've had human blood. I didn't expect your blood to be so delicious. Needless to say, I can have a feast this time."The drawing of the Sealing Demon Talisman was...Everyone was dumbfounded, especially the many cultivators who believed that Ginger Cloud could not defeat the demon ape. At this moment, they were all staring in disbelief at the scene before them.

Although they knew Jiang Yun was powerful, no one expected that at the very beginning of the competition, this golden-furred demon ape, comparable to a cultivator in the first realm of blessed land, would be knocked to the ground by Jiang Yun.

Luo Lingxiao was also stunned!

Jin Gang Yao Yuan's ferocity, he knew better than anyone.

Although it lacks spiritual energy, its natural bronze skin and iron bones are as tough as diamond. No spells from a Qi Condensation cultivator could inflict even the slightest harm upon it.

But even so, he was no match for Jiang Yun's single move of the Mist Art and several bolts of thunder power.

After a long while, someone mumbled, “Is the Tenfold Meridian Vein really this powerful It effortlessly defeated a Blessed Land Realm cultivator”

"Although the Tenfold Circulation Pulse is powerful, it's definitely not to this extent!" Luo Baichuan suddenly spoke. "However, Jiang Yun is very clever and took advantage of both heaven and earth."

Everyone eagerly asked, "We implore the head of the household to enlighten us."

"The fog he unleashed was actually water, and the power of water can amplify the power of thunder. The two complement each other, making the power of thunder double, which is why it was able to bind the Golden Armored Demon Ape!"

Luo Baichuan's voice was loud, clearly not just to answer the crowd, but also to remind Luo Lingxiao.

However, what he said is true.

Ginger Cloud's favorite days were those with thunderstorms. This was because the rain allowed him to perform his "Cloud Heaven and Earth Fog" technique more easily, and the rain also increased the power of thunderbolts.

Hearing Luo Baichuan's words, Luo Lingxiao naturally understood. Looking at the golden gang demon ape rolling on the ground, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he coldly said: "Useless trash, get up."

As soon as his words left his mouth, Luo Lingxiao suddenly stepped forward and delivered a brutal kick to the demon ape's temple.

"Aw!"

With a stomp, Jiang Yun struck the Golden Armored Demon Ape, causing it to let out a pained shriek. However, as the shriek echoed, Jiang Yun's expression subtly changed. The aura emanating from the Golden Armored Demon Ape had surged dramatically in an instant!

Although this aura is still from physical power, it's at least twice as strong as before.

Most importantly, the bolt of lightning that bound its body trembled slightly under the influence of this aura.

"To increase the strength of the demonic beasts in a way that is torturous! However, this is not the Refinement Seal for Demonic Beasts, but rather more like that medicine puppet!"

For such a scene, Jiang Yun was no stranger.

That Du Guirong's medicine puppet also used a similar method to greatly increase its strength.

He just couldn't figure it out. With the Jin Gang Demon Ape's powerful physique, let alone a kick, even if it was stabbed with a sword, it would be hard to pierce its body, and there wouldn't be much pain at all. But now, why was it showing such a painful expression

At this point, Ginger Cloud narrowed his eyes and looked again at the demonic ape. This time, a dazzling cold light exploded in his eyes.

Because he finally saw clearly, on the spot where the demonic ape was kicked by Luo Lingxiao in the temple, there was a golden needle that had already deeply sunk into its head!

Before, this spot absolutely had no chrysanthemum, it's clearly from Luo Lingxiao's kick just now!

But because the demon ape's body was originally golden, even when Jiang Yun stood so close, he didn't notice. Naturally, others couldn't see it clearly either.

"How cruel the Luo family is!"

Just as Ginger Cloud felt a revulsion towards the Luo family's actions, suddenly there were several "boom boom boom" explosions.

It turned out that the Jin Gang demon had actually forcefully broken free from the several strands of lightning power binding its body.

"Ha!"

Unbound by the power of thunder, the Golden Gang Demon Ape leaped from the ground, panting heavily. But in its golden eyes, a deep fear lurked.

What it feared was not Jiang Yun, but Luo Lingxiao.

The onlookers, naturally unaware of the events surrounding Jin Zhen, had originally thought the competition was over. However, to their surprise, Jin Gang Yao Yuan was still standing! This only served to increase their excitement even further.

"Go!"

Under Luo Lingxiao's command, Jin Gang Demon Ape once again raised the golden great sword in his hand and slashed fiercely at Jiang Yun.

This sword strike was far more fierce and heavy than the previous one. The gust of wind it created as it fell from the sky directly dispersed the mist surrounding Jiang Yun, even whipping his hair.

Evidently, the demon ape also harbored some trepidation towards Jiang Yun's mist.

Looking at the grimacing and pained Jin Gang demon ape, who was forced to continue attacking itself, Jiang Yun really wanted to use his demonic cultivator status to help it break free.

But he knew he couldn't do that.

Because this was the Luo family's residence, a celestial eye spirit demon was still staring fixedly at him from above the sky.

One's cultivation realm can be concealed with black stones, but once one reveals their demonic aura, it will definitely not escape the notice of the Heaven-Watching Spirit Demons, nor the Luo family who are descendants of the Demon Refinement lineage.

Therefore, he could only stare at the Golden Gang Demon Ape, standing still and saying, "Come!"

"Roar!"

Whether the demon ape understood Jiang Yun's words or not, it let out another roar from its mouth. The golden long sword tightly gripped in its hand finally slashed fiercely down onto Jiang Yun's head.

"Oh!"

Many cultivators, such as Xie Xiaoyong, couldn't help but gasp in shock, closing their eyes and refusing to watch the bloody scene that was about to unfold.

However, just as the greatsword was about to cleave Jiang Yun in two, the blade suddenly veered slightly to the side.

With the wind of the sword whistling past, this blade did not cleave through Ginger Cloud's head, but merely severed a few strands of hair beside his temple.

"Click!"

The greatsword struck with unabated force, crashing down onto the ground and cleaving a massive chasm through the platform.

"Hahaha!"

Just then, Luo Lingxiao suddenly burst into laughter and said, "Jiang Yun, you are indeed fearless! That's right, I won't kill you. After all, you just asked the head of the Luo family, and the head personally promised you that you would be safe and sound within my Luo family!"

"Today's battle serves as a lesson for you, to teach you some manners. From now on, no matter where you go, don't be so arrogant. Losing face is one thing, but bringing shame upon the Wen Dao Zong is another entirely. "

Upon hearing Luo Lingxiao's words, everyone suddenly realized.

"That's right, Lu Baichuan has sworn to ensure Jiang Yun's safety, so Luo Lingxiao naturally won't take his life!"

"I see. It seems that Jiang Yun knew beforehand that he was no match for the demon ape, so he asked that question to get Luo Baichuan's assurance. That way, he's already put himself in an unbeatable position!"

"I thought Ginger Yun was honest and upright, someone worth befriending. Unexpectedly, he's also a cunning schemer!"

The murmuring discussions, rising and falling like waves, gradually changed the impression of Jiang Yun in their minds. This, after all, was Luo Lingxiao's intention!

The demon ape's sword was indeed meant to split Jiang Yun in two, but at the last moment, Luo Lingxiao changed his aim, deliberately causing the demon ape's blade to deviate upwards slightly.

However, just as the crowd's discussion had barely subsided, Ginger Cloud's voice suddenly rang out: "Luo Lingxiao, no wonder you are the young master of the Luo family!"

Luo Lingxiao frowned and said, "What do you mean"

"In this chaotic world, only someone as cowardly and weak as you is fit to lead your Luo family, continuing to cower within the Inverse Demon Bridge!"

Luo Lingxiao's eyes suddenly flared with anger. "You say I am cowardly and weak!"

"Jiang Yun sneered, "If you weren't cowardly and weak, why didn't you have the guts to strike that sword down Why didn't you have the courage to kill me, Jiang Yun!"

"Since you want to die, I'll grant your wish!"

In Luo Lingxiao's furious roar, the Golden Gang Demon Ape raised its great sword for the third time and slashed fiercely at Jiang Yun. However, Jiang Yun remained standing still, a dismissive smile on his face. He didn't even glance at the greatsword about to strike him, only gazing intently at Luo Lingxiao.
