Therefore, Jiang Chengxuan did not hesitate any longer and immediately completed the exchange with Perfected Lord Flowing Snow.
It must be said that this trade meet allowed Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan to acquire precisely what they each desired. It was indeed a worthwhile trip.
After the entire trade fair concluded, the Perfected Lords began to leave one after another.
Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not linger either.
After bidding farewell to Perfected Lord Xuan Yang, Earth Walker, and Yan Wushuang, they quickly left the territory of the Hidden Sword Palace.
The couple, upon leaving the Hidden Sword Palace, did not plan to return to Jiang Nation but instead decided to venture towards the Nova Waters.
They intended to use their Golden Cloud Token to try entering the Golden Furnace Sect again, hoping to find more opportunities there.
However, about three days into their journey towards the Nova Waters, they suddenly sensed intense fluctuations of Dharmic power not far ahead. On closer inspection, they found three Perfected Lords engaged in fierce combat.
Moreover, they recognized all three individuals. They were Perfected Lord Flowing Snow, the white-haired elder, and Daoist Mystic River, whom they had encountered at the trade fair.
More precisely, it seemed that the white-haired elder and Mystic River had joined forces against Perfected Lord Flowing Snow.
What exactly was happening here? Why were these three clashing in this place? And it seemed the white-haired elder and Mystic River were acquainted, despite their pretense of unfamiliarity at the trade fair. There was definitely something amiss.
Regardless of the issue, it had nothing to do with Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan. They wouldn’t foolishly intervene just because they traded with Perfected Lord Flowing Snow.
Fortunately, the combatants had not noticed their presence.
The couple quickly concealed their aura and made themselves invisible, planning to detour around the battlefield.
“Ke ke ke…” Just then, the white-haired elder, who was attacking Perfected Lord Flowing Snow alongside Mystic River, suddenly let out a scary laugh. His eyes emitted a dark red glow.
“What is that?” Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan, who were about to detour, were startled by this change, their pupils shrinking slightly.
Perfected Lord Flowing Snow’s face also changed drastically. “Han Dongping, you…”
With a sinister laugh, the white-haired elder known as Han Dongping suddenly bit off one of his fingers, muttering something under his breath. Then, a bizarre ghostly hand pattern appeared on his forehead, followed by a surge of dark red fog.
A demonic hand, as if reaching out from the void, suddenly attacked Perfected Lord Flowing Snow.
The demonic hand, emitting a fierce, beast-like roar, shattered her ice shield, striking her protective spiritual light and dimming it.
BANG!
Crack!
Simultaneously, Mystic River also displayed a wicked smile.
Similarly, he bit off one of his fingers, muttering something, and a similar ghostly hand pattern appeared on his forehead. The dark red fog reappeared, and another demonic hand, matching the first in strength and might, flew out from the fog.
With a vicious roar, the second demonic hand struck Perfected Lord Flowing Snow’s protective spirit light, which could no longer hold up.
There was a loud bang.
Perfected Lord Flowing Snow’s protective spirit light was broken immediately.
At the same time, a blue ice flower that looked like a snow lotus suddenly appeared above her head.
On the blue ice flower, streams of ice-blue light fell.
When the demonic hand collided with the ice-blue light, the blue light instantly dimmed it.
Chi! Chi! Chi! Chi!
At the same time, the surface of the blue ice flower on Perfected Lord Flowing Snow’s head seemed to have been corroded and contaminated.
The flawless blue surface was actually dyed with a dark red color.
“What?”
Perfected Lord Flowing Snow’s expression changed once more.
Even Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan couldn’t help but narrow their eyes.
Shen Ruyan suddenly recalled something, her expression turning cold: “That’s the Ghost Hand Demonic Sect!”
“Ghost Hand Demonic Cult?”
Jiang Chengxuan immediately turned around in confusion.
Shen Ruyan nodded, “It’s a demonic sect from my era, known for the technique of severing the fingers. However, they were eradicated by righteous cultivators in my time. How could they appear now?”
BOOM!
Before she could finish, Perfected Lord Flowing Snow was blasted hundreds of miles away by the demonic hand, blood raining down from the sky.
“Ke ke ke…” Han Dongping and Mystic River let out another sinister laugh and bit off another finger each. They reached out towards the blood spilled from Perfected Lord Flowing Snow.
Buzz!
Instantly, the blood that fell from Perfected Lord Flowing Snow gathered in front of them and the two of them chanted at the same time.
After a while, Perfected Lord Flowing Snow’s face turned pale.
Immediately after, she spat out another mouthful of blood.
At this moment, his aura suddenly fell by a large amount.
“Not good! That’s a curse technique!” Jiang Chengxuan’s face changed upon seeing this.
Seeing Han Dongping and Mystic River summon two more demonic hands from the dark red fog to attack Perfected Lord Flowing Snow, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan realized they could no longer just watch.
If it were merely personal grudges, they wouldn’t have intervened.
But this was clearly two Nascent Soul demonic cultivators attempting to harm their fellow cultivator.
Whether for the greater good or out of moral duty, they couldn’t let Han Dongping and Mystic River kill Perfected Lord Flowing Snow.
Moreover, there was something extremely important that Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan did not say. When they saw Han Dongping and Mystic River, they instinctively sensed that something was amiss.
So without further hesitation, the couple flew towards the battlefield.
Clang!
Crack—
As Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan appeared, they didn’t hold back.
Jiang Chengxuan took out his level 5 True Treasure, the Golden Void Sword.
While Shen Ruyan summoned her intrinsic True Treasure, the Falling Thunder Seal.
Sword light and thunder intertwined, catching Han Dongping and Mystic River completely off guard.
They had no idea that two Nascent Soul Perfected Lords were hidden nearby.
However, soon, Han Dongping and the Mystic River seemed to have recognized them.
A trace of shock flashed across their eyes, and their expressions could not help but become a little ferocious.
“It’s you!”
BOOM!
As their words fell, Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s attack arrived right above their heads, forcing them to defend with their treasures.
BANG!
Crack!
But their treasures were no match for the Golden Void Sword and Falling Thunder Seal.
In an instant, the treasures of Han Dongping and Xuanhe Daoist were shattered by Jiang Chengxuan and Shen Ruyan’s powerful attacks..
