Immortal and Martial Dual Cultivation - Chapter 657

Chapter 657: Profit

"His saber intent is very strong. There are not many with a stronger saber intent than this young bladesman's in the eighteen provinces of the south."

"When that saber intent came out, I almost could not control my own saber."

The eyes of the many bladesmen who leaped out when they heard the sword hum filled with astonishment.

Xiao Chen ignored the discussions and gazes of the others. He simply gathered the bodies of the Seven Black Wind Killers in one spot and chopped their heads off.

He would be bringing these heads back to the Supreme Sky Sect as he needed to show proof of completion. Then, he extracted the spatial rings of the seven.

Loose cultivators often pursued a lifestyle that lived in the present as they might die at any moment. Thus, they generally would not have much wealth on them. However, this group of people had just robbed two clans. They should have some items of value.

After doing all this, Xiao Chen rode an Azure Dragon image and landed beside the Feng Clan's Clan Head. He held out the mission documents and said, "You must be the one that issued the mission to the Supreme Sky Sect. Please place your handprint here."

The Feng Clan's Clan Head was somewhat absent-minded at the moment. Up to now, he still could not believe that the Seven Black Wind Killers, who visited fear and anxiety on everyone in Dingshui City, were dead.

The Feng Clan's Clan Head only reacted after Xiao Chen called out to him again. He quickly took the mission document and placed his handprint on it. He performed a cupped-fist salute and said, "Many thanks to Young Hero for your help. The Feng Clan is unable to return such a favor."

"You do me too much honor. I already obtained their wealth and their heads. It is just eliminating a threat to society; that's all."

Xiao Chen smiled gently and returned the cupped-fist salute. Then, he took his leave. After that, his white figure slowly disappeared from everyone's vision, vanishing into the night.

Xiao Chen arrived under the cover of night and left the same way. He came and left like the wind—disappearing without a trace. The darkness of night did not change because of him. Only the seven headless corpses lying on the ground served as silent testament to his deeds.

After some time, when everyone had left, two figures with strong auras flew into the city from the distance. They saw the seven headless corpses and exchanged glances, feeling rather depressed.

The two wore similar sky-blue robes. The person on the right had a sword hanging at his waist, and the person on the left had a pair of twin sabers on his back.

If the people of Dingshui City saw them, they would be able to identify these two people as being from the Rising Sky Pavilion from the insignia on their clothes. Furthermore, these two were inner sect disciples with high status.

As Dingshui City was near the border between Supreme Sky Province and White Feather Province, both provinces had managed Dingshui City at some point in history.

Dingshui City was considered a rather chaotic place. There were many cities like this in most of the provinces. Loose cultivators liked to frequent such cities where governance was not clear.

The cultivator with a rectangular face and the twin sabers looked at the seven headless corpses and said, "Senior Brother Wang, it looks like we are too late. The Seven Black Wind Killers have already been killed by someone else."

The Seven Black Wind Killers caused trouble in many places. The Rising Sky Pavilion had a mission for taking down the Seven Black Wind Killers. The reward offered was no lower than what the Supreme Sky Sect had.

The cultivator with the two sabers was called Liu Feihu. The handsome swordsman with the sword hanging at his waist was Wang Feng. These two people were among the peak of the Rising Sky Pavilion's inner sect.

Coincidentally, these two had accepted the mission to kill the Seven Black Wind Killers. When they received the news about the Seven Black Wind Killers, they immediately rushed to Dingshui City. Unexpectedly, they were still too late.

Wang Feng muttered to himself. After a moment of silence, an ominous glint flashed in his eyes. He said, "The blood from their wounds has not coagulated yet. This person is probably still nearby. The people of the city should have seen what happened."

Liu Feihu immediately understood what Wang Feng meant. They had long since emerged from the sect, and this was not the first time they had done something like this.
