Lord of the World - C84

Leng Jun was already about to fall asleep, but when he smelled the strange aroma, he immediately became alert. Only now did he realize that his surroundings had become abnormally quiet. He actually didn’t even hear the sound of insects or the barking of dogs.

After staying in the Swordsman Restaurant in the Heaven Realm City for a few years, Leng Jun’s experience had increased by quite a bit. He immediately thought of something, that this strange incense was probably used by some thieves for their bad intentions.

Thinking of this, Leng Jun secretly put a Dragon’s Saliva Pill in his mouth, then pretended to be unconscious. He did so to see what the purpose of the thieves was. If it was just an ordinary little thief, he would have at least let them go.

However, if the target of the thieves was Zhu Qingyun, then he could not easily alarm the thieves. It was because they weren’t afraid of thieves. If they were targeted by the thieves, it would mean trouble for them. They might be ambushed at any moment. There was only one way to solve this, and that was to temporarily pretend that she had fallen into a trap. Only when the thief appeared would they be able to capture him.

Sure enough, as Leng Jun had expected, the thieves were rushing towards him. He originally wanted to wait until all the thieves appeared before taking action, but he didn’t expect them to be so audacious. They actually wanted to do obscene things right here, so he quickly stopped them.

Although it had already been half a month since Leng Jun saved Zhu Qingyun, Li Sicong still did not give up. His eyes were all over the place, as he kept trying to find information on Zhu Qingyun. However, the heavy soldiers of the Earthly God Palace were all placed near the Divine Martial City, and when he unintentionally discovered that Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun had stayed in this inn, he only had a few ordinary small fries by his side.

Li Sicong had fought with Leng Jun before, and knew that he was not weak, he did not have the confidence to win, so he could only send his subordinates to gather the Earthly God Palace experts first, while he himself watched from the shadows.

However, when he saw Leng Jun and Zhu Qingyun going in and out together with intimate manners, he did not feel good about it at all. However, the more he read, the more he knew that Zhu Qingyun had not been opened yet. Seeing such a situation, Li Sicong’s heart simply couldn’t bear it. He was worried that Ye Zhang Meng would be snatched by Leng Jun first, so he decided to take the risk. He wanted to capture Zhu Qingyun first, then think about it.

Of course, Li Sicong wasn’t completely confident. He still had a secret weapon, which was his special incense. Once this incense was lit, all people and animals within half a kilometer would be unconscious unless they took the antidote beforehand. Moreover, they would not feel any discomfort afterwards, as if they had just slept and could not remember anything.

However, this type of incense had one drawback. The effect was relatively slow, and it would take a while for the incense to take effect. Leng Jun also had a high level of alertness, and coincidentally carried around a pill that could cure a hundred diseases and cure a hundred poisons, which just so happened to relieve this bewitching fragrance.

Li Sicong was lacking by just one move, he did not think that it would be like this. Seeing that his good fortune had been destroyed by Leng Jun, he was immediately furious, and threw the Fire Seed in his hand towards Leng Jun.

Behind Leng Jun was the soundly asleep Zhu Qingyun on the bed. If he wanted to dodge, the Fire Elemental would fall onto the bed. How could Leng Jun avoid this situation and let the beauty be injured?

Leng Jun waved the Purple Emperor Sword in his hand, and it formed a sword screen in front of him. When the spark landed on the sword screen, it immediately filled the entire room with crackling sparks.

When the sparks landed, they would be extinguished into smoke, but when they landed on the drapes beside the bed, they immediately caused a fire.

Seeing that it was not good, Leng Jun suddenly used Beiyou Sect’s martial arts, the fire seeds, due to Beiyou Sect’s spirit energy had actually turned into ice sparks in the blink of an eye.

The fire did not burn up, but Li Sicong was also gone. It turned out that after he threw the Fire Seed at Leng Jun, he turned around and ran out of the window.

Leng Jun was unwilling to let him go and immediately gave chase. But he didn’t expect that Li Sicong didn’t run after coming out, and instead hid by the window. Just as Leng Jun jumped out of the window, Li Sicong’s iron sword pierced through his back.

Li Sicong’s original weapon was a gigantic sword that had already shattered. Right now, he was only holding an ordinary metal sword, this wasn’t his usual weapon.

Although it was not a weapon that he could use, he was wrong. Without the heavy burden of the greatsword, Li Sicong was both quick and ferocious. If it was before, Leng Jun would not have been able to dodge this sneak attack.

However, Leng Jun had cultivated with Qing Hao on the “Ghost Isle” for half a month, and they had already reached the state of elemental energy awakening.

When Li Sicong had just made his move, Leng Jun had already sensed it. But even so, it was not easy for him to dodge this sword. Thankfully, he had run out of the window, so he had managed to create some distance between them. Using this momentum, he used the most unsightly “Get lost” move, and barely dodged Li Sicong’s attack.

Li Sicong’s sword pierced the air, and he cursed: “Pah, what is that thing?”

Leng Jun also blushed, this method of dodging was indeed very embarrassing. However, how could he show weakness in front of a thief? He raised his sword and cursed back: “Little thief, do you only dare to attack from behind?”

Li Sicong was also someone with an important position, after being scolded by Leng Jun, he could not help but feel embarrassed. He became angry from embarrassment and shouted, “Then let me show you what I can do!”

With that said, Li Sicong swung his iron sword and thrusted at Leng Jun again.

Leng Jun learnt one hundred and eight moves from Qing Hao. Originally, he wanted to test them on Li Sicong. However, he suddenly thought of Qing Hao telling him a thousand times to not easily reveal his Earth Yin Clan and elemental energy, and he did not know if he could find Li Sicong’s accomplices in the shadows, so he did not dare to act rashly, and could only use the Martial Skill that he was most familiar with, Beiyou Sect’s, to parry.

Now that Leng Jun had learned the Origin Energy from the Earth Yin Clan and reached the state of awakening, he was no longer under the control of the Purple Emperor Sword. It was just that without using Earth Yin Clan, the Purple Emperor Sword had lost its special use and became an ordinary Crystal Sword.

The Purple Emperor Sword itself was very heavy, and without the coordination of Earth Yin Energy, it could not release the power of the Purple Emperor Sword. This caused Leng Jun’s situation to be the complete opposite of Li Sicong’s.

Li Sicong was, after all, the Young Master of the Earthly God Palace, so there was no need to explain more about his strength. When he saw that Leng Jun had restricted himself, he became even more confident and used his elemental energy, causing the surroundings of the iron sword to be filled with golden specks of light.

Leng Jun’s elemental energy had already awakened, so he naturally understood that those golden dots of light were the elemental energy from his Heavenly Yang Clan. It was just that he felt that it was strange, why was it gold in color and not just pure gold in color. Furthermore, Li Sicong’s elemental energy did not seem to have reached the stage of awakening, but it was still able to force his vitality out of his body.

Before going to the “Ghost Isle”, Leng Jun knew that the only way to force his spirit energy out of his body was to burn the Natal Elemental Energy. Usually, he would only do that when he was determined to die. However, Li Sicong’s situation was clearly not one where he was burning Natal Elemental Energy.
