#1035 - The routine is very deep

Princess Anning was now unable to struggle or make a sound, forced to watch as Yue Wuxie, like a madman, carried her under his arm and walked towards the outside of Wanbao Trading Company.

The crowds coming and going all looked at them.

However, apart from the chief steward of Wanbao Trading Company, the others did not know Princess Anning's identity, as she always appeared in a phoenix palanquin with gauze curtains covering her.

At this moment, Jun Wuxie had already arrived outside the entrance of Wanbao Trading Company.

Just as he was about to leave, the brocade-robed youth from the Blood Fiend Alliance walked over with a smile, blocking his path.

"Friend, were you waiting for me here on purpose?"

Jun Wuxie looked at him with a smile.

The brocade-robed youth from the Blood Fiend Alliance looked at Princess Anning, who was being carried under his arm, and couldn't help but feel amazed.

At the auction, he hadn't paid much attention to this woman, as he was more focused on the auction itself, and later, his anger was ignited, shifting his focus to the youth who was competing with him for the Black Crystal Iron.

Now, looking at this woman again, she was truly captivatingly beautiful. Such beauty would be considered top-tier even in Hanzhou, a region ten times larger than this Qingzhou territory.

Faced with such captivating beauty, he couldn't help but feel a little eager.

He wondered which family's daughter she was. Judging by her attire, she should be from a relatively famous family or power in Qingzhou.

And what power did this youth come from?

He dared to compete with him for the Black Crystal Iron and remained confrontational even after learning that he was from the Blood Fiend Alliance.

He looked closely at the youth before him, carefully sensing the aura around him.

Although he couldn't determine his exact realm, based on his judgment, this person would not exceed the Middle Heaven Stage of the Saint King Realm at most.

He was just a cultivator of a low realm, yet he dared to compete with him?

At this moment, Princess Anning felt the possessive gaze of the Blood Fiend Alliance youth on her, and she couldn't help but feel disgusted.

The smiling Blood Fiend Alliance youth remained silent for a moment before reaching out and patting Jun Wuxie's shoulder, saying, "Friend, walk steadily on the road ahead. Remember not to stumble, or you might never be able to get up again. I wish you good luck."

After he finished speaking, he stepped aside.

This surprised some of the people nearby who had attended the auction and knew his identity.

The people from the Blood Fiend Alliance were letting go of the youth who had competed with him for the Black Crystal Iron and been confrontational?

Since when had the powerful and ruthless Blood Fiend Alliance become so easy to talk to?

He could swallow this loss and endure this humiliation?

"Even with a beauty under my arm, I walk very steadily, and my luck has always been good."

Jun Wuxie responded to the Blood Fiend Alliance youth's knowing and confident smile, then strode away, quickly disappearing into the bustling crowd.

He walked through the crowded streets, his pace seemingly unhurried, but in reality, his speed was very fast. The people on the street couldn't see his figure clearly, only seeing faint shadows flashing by.

Soon, he carried Princess Anning out of the city and headed towards the vast mountains.

At this moment, he slightly loosened the seal on Princess Anning's sea of consciousness.

"You bastard, where are you taking me?!"

Princess Anning could no longer maintain her elegance. With her sea of consciousness slightly unsealed, she immediately rebuked him with her divine sense.

"Princess, please be calm and speak more politely, or you'll get a beating."

Jun Wuxie said with a smile, infuriating Princess Anning.

She took a deep breath, trying her best to control her emotions, and said, "Young Master Yue, listen to Anning. It's best to find a way to resolve the conflict with that Blood Fiend Alliance youth. If you really kill him, the consequences will be very serious!"

"Are you worried about me?" Jun Wuxie glanced at her. "Why do I feel like you're worried about the Ningwang Mansion being implicated?"

"You… Young Master Yue, Anning is sincerely doing this for your own good, and naturally, I'm also worried about implicating my Ningwang Mansion. Actually, you don't have to do this at all. You can choose to trust Anning. There's no need to drag Anning into this vortex. Can you let Anning go?"

"Princess, you are the daughter of the Prince of Ning, and you have done many things for the Prince of Ning over the years. Everyone knows you are a very wise person. So, do you think that given the relationship between us, I can completely trust you? Or should I keep the bargaining chip in my own hands?"

Princess Anning fell silent.

Of course, she knew that the relationship between herself and Yue Wuxie made it impossible for him to completely trust her. It was a relationship of mutual exploitation, each getting what they needed.

With Yue Wuxie's intelligence, he probably already guessed that she wanted to subdue him, which was why he put on such a performance.

"Do you really want to kill someone from the Blood Fiend Alliance? The Blood Fiend Alliance is a top power in Hanzhou. Even if the disciples who come out of the Blood Fiend Alliance are just ordinary people within the Blood Fiend Alliance, their realms will never be low. With your current strength, it's impossible to kill him. Even if I help you, it won't work. And you should know that it's impossible for me to help!"

"There's no need for the Princess to help. If it really comes down to a fight, I'm confident I can kill him."

Jun Wuxie said confidently, continuing to carry Princess Anning and running through the vast mountains.

Princess Anning guessed that he must have some trump cards to be so confident.

She had carefully observed the Blood Fiend Alliance youth at the auction.

If she wasn't mistaken, he was a powerhouse at the Half-Step Great Saint Realm!

Such a realm belonged to the foundation-level powerhouses or sect leader-level figures of the Four Great Sects.

It was just that, relatively speaking, they might not have the same level of talent and growth potential as the foundation or sect leaders of the Four Great Sects.

Qingzhou's cultivation resources were relatively scarce, and most of the resources were of low grade, so it was difficult for cultivators to raise their realms.

The level of realm was not necessarily related to talent and growth potential, only to comprehension and resource supply.

Hanzhou had abundant resources and deep foundations, so it was much easier for cultivators there to improve their realms.

"Then where are you going now?"

"I don't have a destination. I just want to run as far as possible. That Blood Fiend Alliance youth should be tracking us right now."

Upon hearing this, Princess Anning couldn't help but feel puzzled.

Yue Wuxie said he wanted to kill the Blood Fiend Alliance youth, but at this moment, he was running madly. Why?

Could it be that he wanted to get as far away from Qingyun City as possible before taking action?

Thinking of this, she realized that Yue Wuxie's speed was actually so fast.

Carrying her, his speed was still astonishingly fast, much faster than her, a Middle Heaven Stage Saint King's, utmost speed.

How many times the speed of sound was that?

She discovered that when Yue Wuxie was running, between the movements of his feet, mysterious and unpredictable secret art runes bloomed in patches beneath his feet. It was those runes that gave him his amazing speed.

"How can he track us?"

Princess Anning looked behind her, not seeing the shadow of the Blood Fiend Alliance youth even at the end of the horizon.

"You can't see him. He's still very far away from us right now. But he will find us sooner or later because he planted a special Blood Fiend mark on my shoulder."

"Are you saying that he planted the mark when he patted your shoulder in front of Wanbao Trading Company?"

Princess Anning recalled the situation at that time. She had suspected when she saw the Blood Fiend Alliance youth patting his shoulder, but she hadn't seen anything amiss. It looked like he had just patted his shoulder casually.

So, she dismissed her suspicions. Now it seemed that his methods were truly imperceptible.

Because she had been watching the Blood Fiend Alliance youth the whole time, but she hadn't been able to detect it.

Jun Wuxie ran at five times the speed of sound for an entire day and night, crossing over two hundred thousand miles of mountains and rivers, before stopping on an island in the center of a lake in a forest.

He put Princess Anning down and removed all the seals from her sea of consciousness and blessed land.

"The people from the Blood Fiend Alliance are here. Do you want me to help you?"

Princess Anning suddenly said, having come to a decision.

Since Yue Wuxie wanted to drag her into the vortex, it was destined that she couldn't stay out of it.

The best outcome was to join forces to kill the Blood Fiend Alliance youth and destroy the evidence.

That way, it wouldn't be so easy for the Blood Fiend Alliance to investigate, and at least for a long time, there shouldn't be any problems.

The worst thing was to fail. If they couldn't kill him, then disaster would come quickly.

"Not for now. During the battle, stay far away, protect yourself, and don't get hurt by the aftershocks."

Jun Wuxie sat cross-legged on the island, his voice calm.

Princess Anning was very curious about what trump cards he had, given his realm, to be so confident, and she couldn't help but remind him, "That Blood Fiend Alliance youth, if I'm not mistaken, should be a powerhouse at the Half-Step Great Saint Realm. Are you sure you can deal with him?"

"I'm sure."

"Why don't we take advantage of the time before he arrives to plan carefully?"

"No need."

"But…"

"Can you be quiet?"

Jun Wuxie glanced at her with some impatience.

"You…"

Princess Anning was very angry. This Yue Wuxie actually yelled at her!

In her life, even her father had never yelled at her, let alone anyone else.

Ever since she met this Yue Wuxie, she had found that all sorts of her firsts had been broken one after another.

At this moment, she suddenly had the ridiculous feeling that she seemed to be completely controlled by this guy.

She was Anning. Even the current emperor was relatively wary of her, regarding her as her father's most capable strategist.

It had always been her who controlled others.

Now, how could she have such a ridiculous thought in her heart, how could she suddenly become so unconfident?

"Perhaps it's because of the current situation, I can't do anything to him, which is why such a thought arises subconsciously. Once I return to the sphere of influence of my Ningwang Mansion, it shouldn't be like this…"

She told herself this in her heart, and the reality was indeed that circumstances were stronger than people.

Yue Wuxie's realm was lower than hers, but his strength was clearly much stronger than hers.

Time flowed slowly. Jun Wuxie closed his eyes to rest. After about two hours, he opened his eyes and said to Princess Anning beside him, "Step back and go to the shore."

"He's coming?"

Princess Anning released her divine sense to carefully sense, but found nothing.

But Yue Wuxie actually sensed it. Is his soul realm actually stronger than hers?

But his realm is clearly lower than hers!

"Aren't you afraid that I'll take the opportunity to leave?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Jun Wuxie laughed and said lightly, "If you dared to leave, would I still ask you to step back?"

Looking at the expression on his face that everything was under control, and listening to his confident words, Princess Anning once again felt that sense of frustration of being manipulated.

This Yue Wuxie was certain that she wouldn't dare to leave.

Because she had to witness the outcome of this battle with her own eyes.

If the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth didn't die, how could she leave in peace?

At the auction, Yue Wuxie used her dan card to bid, and they were together at that time.

If the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth ran away, the consequences would be terrible. When they returned to Qingzhou, bringing experts, would they only deal with Yue Wuxie alone?

With the Blood Fiend Alliance's style, if their people suffered a loss, they were very likely to vent their anger on those related to it.

Moreover, if she really left, and Yue Wuxie was not a match for the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth, she was really afraid that he would implicate the Ning Royal Mansion before his death, which could be a catastrophe.

Therefore, no matter what, she had to see the result today.

If Yue Wuxie was defeated, she and he would die here. In this way, at least the entire Ning Royal Mansion would not be implicated.

She took a deep look at this youth who made her feel apprehensive, and quickly withdrew from the lake area to the shore.

Now, after experiencing these things, she finally realized how wrong her previous analysis of him was.

This was not someone with only a little cleverness, but someone with terrifying strategies.

She wanted to subdue him and control him, but she was unwittingly falling into his abyss step by step.

Today's matter may be a coincidence, allowing her to fall into the abyss in advance, but she knew that even without today's matter, she was afraid that she would not be able to escape.

Not long after, a streak of blood-colored light appeared in the distant sky.

As the light got closer and closer, it finally became clear.

It was a young man in brocade clothes, his body wrapped in a blood-colored true energy barrier, flying through the air at several times the speed of sound, and soon arrived above the lake.

"Do you still remember what I said to you in front of the Myriad Treasures Pavilion?"

The Blood Fiend Alliance's youth stood in the air, looking down at Jun Wuxie on the island in the middle of the lake, and said, "It's a pity that your path doesn't seem to be stable, and you have no chance to continue walking it."

Jun Wuxie stood up, his left hand behind his back, looking calmly at the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth, and said, "Your speed is a bit slow. I've been waiting for you here for several hours."

"You were waiting for me?" The Blood Fiend Alliance's youth couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed wildly, "Hahaha! I don't know if I should say you're overestimating yourself, or if I should say you're a frog in a well! Being in Qingzhou, a remote place, has limited your horizons. You don't know how vast the world outside Qingzhou is, what the forces outside Qingzhou mean, and how powerful cultivators are. Even if there were ten more cultivators of your low realm, they wouldn't be enough in front of me."

"Originally, I was traveling to Qingzhou and accidentally discovered Black Crystal Mother Iron. I just wanted to make a fortune, but I didn't expect you to pick the fruit halfway. You dare to snatch something that the Blood Fiend Alliance's people have set their eyes on. Perhaps ignorance has given you courage."

"You talk too much nonsense. I find it very noisy. If you want Black Crystal Mother Iron, then rely on your own ability to take it."

As Jun Wuxie spoke, a Universe Bag appeared in his hand, the mouth of the bag opened automatically, and black light shone from inside.

The Blood Fiend Alliance's youth's eyes suddenly became fiery.

Black Crystal Mother Iron, there's so much?

These are top-grade third-grade holy materials, worth amazing amounts.

For a half-step Great Saint like him, that was a huge fortune.

In the future, it can be used to create high-grade advanced holy artifacts, and the rest can be sold to earn massive amounts of Saint Spirit Pills.

"There's so much! Boy, thank you for bidding for it. Now, whether it's the Black Crystal Mother Iron or your life, it's mine!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the true energy on his body burst out, and blood light soared into the sky.

The deep true energy energy impacted the huge lake, causing waves hundreds of feet high.

He was very casual, took a step forward, and reached out to grab.

As a half-step Great Saint, he didn't take Jun Wuxie, whose realm was much lower than his, seriously at all.

At the same time, with a loud bang.

Heaven and earth trembled for it, and the mighty momentum shook the mountains and rivers.

A tsunami-like momentum erupted from Jun Wuxie's body, and the crimson and crystalline blood energy spread out like a mountain torrent.

His aura soared wildly.

The Taiji Star Sea rotated, and the Primal Beginning Disintegration and True Martial Undying Body, two major forbidden techniques superimposed, making his comprehensive strength soar by 405 times in an instant.

The aura instantly increased so much, not only shocking the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth who made the move, but also stunning and horrified Princess Anning who was watching on the shore, simply unable to believe her eyes.

"I underestimated you, but you're still not enough. The gap in realm is difficult to overcome!"

The Blood Fiend Alliance's youth's palm had already arrived above Jun Wuxie, and the blood-colored hand condensed by true energy grabbed down from the sky.

"It's just a half-step Great Saint, who gave you the confidence?"

Jun Wuxie's words were indifferent, and he pointed to the high sky, and the tenfold effect of the Dou Character Secret Technique was triggered in an instant.

The crimson and crystalline finger light was sharp and unmatched, destroying the dry and rotten, and easily pierced through the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth's true energy palm, causing it to collapse into nothingness.

This made the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth's pupils shrink, and his face showed a look of horror.

The other party's realm was so low, how could he do this?

Clang!

He sacrificed a battle halberd flowing with blood-colored light, danced it, and slashed out a blazing blood light, splitting down with force.

Jun Wuxie's eyes were indifferent, his left hand behind his back, he stepped forward, and his right hand, surrounded by crimson and crystalline blood energy, slapped forward.

The five fingers were unstoppable, collapsing the blood-colored halberd light, and bombarded on the battle halberd.

The battle halberd buzzed and trembled.

The Blood Fiend Alliance's youth only felt an unbearable force surging through the battle halberd and into his palms and fingers. The pain was excruciating, the tiger's mouth burst open with a pop, his palm lost its grip, and the battle halberd flew out of his hand.

He was terrified, and hurriedly mobilized true energy in his arm to resist the blood energy, but the true energy retreated steadily and could not resist it at all.

The force poured into his arm, causing him to scream in pain, his arm bones were completely shattered, his flesh burst open, and his entire arm was crippled.

"You…"

He was so frightened that his soul flew out of his body, and he no longer had any fighting spirit. He turned around and ran.

Hum!

Jun Wuxie reached out, and a dragon's roar shook the mountains and rivers.

The fleeing Blood Fiend Alliance's youth was sucked back at once.

He roared frantically, turned around and rushed over, in a desperate posture, the light of blood-colored secret techniques bloomed, and launched a violent storm-like attack.

Jun Wuxie always carried his left hand behind his back, and used his right hand to meet the enemy. His palms and fingers flicked, all the secret techniques were wiped out, and then a palm was printed on the chest of the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth.

With a loud noise, the chest of the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth collapsed directly, his back bulged, and with a pop, it exploded. His internal organs were shattered, and the cave was shaken out of cracks.

His body cut through the sky like a shooting star and fell on the shore of the lake, smashing a deep pit in the ground there. The air wave generated by the impact broke all the trees within a hundred meters.

Almost at the same time, Jun Wuxie's body swayed, all the aura on his body was instantly exhausted, a mouthful of bright red blood spurted out, and his body fell from the air and smashed on the island in the middle of the lake.

Princess Anning recovered from her deep shock and quickly rushed to the island.

"Young Master Yue, how are you?"

Looking at him with blood all over his mouth and an extremely pale face, Princess Anning understood that he must have forcibly used some kind of forbidden technique just now to show such a state.

In this way, even if he was a body cultivator, it would be difficult to withstand the fierce backlash, and his body would be severely injured.

"Quick… kill the people from the Blood Fiend Alliance… He… he's not dead yet… Don't… don't let him run away…"

Jun Wuxie was extremely weak, unable to say a complete sentence, and his voice was so low that it was difficult to hear beyond three feet.

Hearing him say this, Princess Anning's sense of crisis was immediately pulled up.

Yes, that person is not dead yet!

She raised her head and looked over, just in time to see the blood-covered Blood Fiend Alliance's youth crawling out of the pit, pouring pills into his mouth.

A sharp cold light flashed in her eyes, she instantly disappeared on the island, pulling up a trail of afterimages, rushing to the opposite bank, her slender white and tender palm was full of true energy, and she slammed down on the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth.

"No!"

The Blood Fiend Alliance's youth let out a terrified cry.

Boom!

Princess Anning gave her full palm, and the seriously injured and dying Blood Fiend Alliance's youth couldn't bear it at all. His entire body exploded instantly under her power.

An jade stone flowing with rune light appeared in the air at some point, recording the entire scene of Anning killing the Blood Fiend Alliance's youth.
