Chapter 357 Abnormality
For a moment, Jiang Liqian was actually suppressed by it.
Cao Xian was not someone who would miss an opportunity. He drew out his crescent-shaped knife, flashing a sharp cold light and attacking Jiang Liqian's left hand which was struggling to support himself.
He was going to cut off her left hand without mercy.
When Master Zhongdao in the stands saw this scene, he stood up suddenly, his heart clenched.
Fortunately, Jiang Liqian reacted quickly enough. She grabbed the wolf's neck with one hand and grabbed Cao Xian's scimitar with the other hand. The Soul-Suppressing Pearl was under her control and attacked the wolf's left eye.
Seeing this, Master Chongdao felt both pain and anger. With a dark expression, he questioned Cao Shenyi, "Elder Cao, your good son was being too ruthless, wasn't he? Doesn't he understand the meaning of fraternal affection and knowing when to stop?"
Cao Shenyi naturally didn't dare challenge Master Zhongdao. He held his breath and pretended to be submissive. He kept his eyes on the Immortal Qingzhi who was sitting in the main seat, and stammered, "Peak...Peak Master is right. It's my fault for not teaching my son well. I didn't tell my son that even in the internal fighting competitions, I have to...I have to give some points to my direct disciples. Even if I suffer a loss, I will never...never let them lose face..."
Master Chongdao's eyes immediately turned cold, and a layer of frost instantly formed on his usually kind face. The surrounding pressure was so strong that Cao Shenyi was immediately shocked and vomited blood.
Master Zhongdao sneered: "Elder Cao, are you deliberately misinterpreting what I mean?"
Cao Shen gritted his teeth to suppress the surging blood in his body and lowered his head: "I dare not."
The third elder saw that the atmosphere between the two of them was tense and they were about to fight, so he quickly spoke out to stop them.
"Zhongdao, what crime have you committed? On the martial arts arena, swords and knives are blind. The rules of the sect's competitions are to keep your breath. What, you are protecting your shortcomings and want to defy the sect's rules?
"And you, Shen Yi, as an outer sect elder, after so many years of experience, don't you know what to say and what not to say?"
Chongdao snorted coldly and said, "Don't speak anymore," but he withdrew his pressure. Cao Shenyi knew that if he said another word, the Third Elder, who had always valued him, would also turn against him, so he could only swallow his anger.
The Immortal Master Qingzhi, who was sitting in the main seat, didn't seem to care what they were arguing about. There was always a very calm expression on his face. His pair of eyes covered with ice and snow were empty, but seemed to be always fixed on one place, on one person.
But the cold wind was already blowing into his sleeves. Obviously, if Master Zhongdao and Cao Shen continued to quarrel, he would directly sweep them out, and they would not be able to get close to the Qiankun Stage again until the competition within the sect was over.
The third elder breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Immortal Qingzhi's sleeves slowly falling down again.
On the Qiankun stage, the spirit wolf sensed danger and reflexively loosened the force of its bite. Jiang Liqian took advantage of this opportunity and threw a punch. The spirit wolf, along with the sudden strong wind, crashed into Cao Xian.
Cao Xian's pupils shrank. He drew back his scimitar and kicked away the wolf that was about to hit him.
The spirit wolf howled in pain and rolled to the side, its mouth full of blood.
Jiang Liqian never expected that Cao Xian would be so cruel to his spirit beast and didn't care about its life or death at all.
But before she could get angry, the spirit wolf struggled to stand up again, and the black aura on its body became even darker. The strong smell of blood and the surging murderous aura rushed towards Jiang Liqian.
As if it couldn't feel the pain, it pounced on her again. This time, its eyes had turned from gray to blood red, its movements were faster, its aura was stronger, and the deadly spirits surrounding it were even thicker.
A pair of eyes stared at Jiang Liqian, as if he wanted to bite her neck off.
Cao Xian took action at the same time, hiding behind the spirit wolf, with murderous intentions.
Jiang Liqian's eyes turned cold, and the twelve golden beads quickly changed. She held a golden whip in her hand and then lashed it at the spirit wolf without any hesitation.
The wolf's thick fur was immediately torn into a deep wound that could be seen to the bone, but strangely, the wolf ignored the wound completely and pounced on Jiang Liqian to fight with her.
Jiang Liqian wanted to kick it away again, but just as she was about to move, she suddenly felt a faint, familiar yet unfamiliar cold aura in the wolf's blood-red eyes.
In just a moment of distraction, the sharp teeth pierced her shoulder.
The intense pain blurred her eyes.
When the spirit wolf licked the blood on Jiang Liqian's shoulder, it seemed to become even more hungry and bit harder, as if it wanted to bite her shoulder off.
At this moment, the spirit beast bag that had been dormant at Jiang Liqian's waist suddenly moved, followed by a dazzling golden light flash, and a small golden peach half a person's height jumped out. Before anyone could react, it bit the spirit wolf's neck and twisted its neck directly.
Afterwards, Xiao Jintao spat several times to the side, as if she was disgusted by the blood under the other person's fur.
Cao Xian saw that his good situation was suddenly ruined by such a "big dog" and the "magic weapon" that he had finally obtained to win was also broken. He was so angry that he raised his scimitar and slashed at Xiao Jintao.
How could Jiang Liqian let him succeed? She had been restraining herself in the past out of friendship with her fellow disciples. Now that he dared to touch her spirit beast, she couldn't blame him for being ruthless.
The Floating Light Belt of Flowing Snow appeared, binding him tightly. Just as he was about to swing his sword to cut through the Belt, a whip shadow struck him fiercely with the force of thunder, lashing him to pieces and crippling his right hand holding the scimitar.
Then she stepped on his head with a murderous look in her eyes: "Tell me, what did you do to this spirit wolf?"
Even though she didn't understand spirit beasts, she could tell there was something wrong with such an abnormal wolf.
Cao Xian grimaced in pain, his features contorted. He was already speechless from the pain, but when he heard Jiang Liqian's question, something suddenly occurred to him amidst the sharp pain. He gritted his teeth and closed his eyes, his spiritual energy surging, and a black array suddenly appeared beneath the spirit wolf.
Ye Anan's shouting immediately came from the audience: "He and the wolf had a master-servant contract, and now he wants to use the contract to kill the wolf!"
Upon hearing this, Jiang Liqian immediately wanted to stop Cao Xian, but it was too late. The spirit wolf, which was still breathing, turned into a ball of blood mist in an instant, dyeing the Qiankun Platform red.
"you!"
Cao Xian spat out the blood in his mouth and laughed sinisterly: "Isn't there a rule in the competition that prohibits the execution of disobedient spirit beasts?"
For the first time since her rebirth, Jiang Liqian lost her composure and whipped him hard again.
Cao Xian's eyes rolled back, he couldn't bear it anymore and fainted.
"Second brother!" With a heartbroken roar, Cao Hu flew onto the stage, punched Jiang Liqian away, and hugged the unconscious Cao Xian.
