Shangguan Yun had an idea in mind, and his attack speed slowed down.
He wanted to leave, but he couldn't say it directly, otherwise he would be in deep trouble if Ren Woxing found out when he got back.
Shangguan Yun continued to besiege Jiang Ning, but glanced at the expressions of the others.
when!when!when!
The fighting continues.
The rain stopped sometime ago.
However, everyone's spirits gradually sank as they faced Jiang Ning's desperate struggle.
They didn't know if they could actually kill Jiang Ning this time.
Jiang Ning himself was also at his limit. Every movement he made would aggravate the wounds on his body, especially the sword wound on his back and the sword wound on his chest. The wound on his back was washed white by the rain, and the flesh on both sides of the wound kept writhing with Jiang Ning's movements, which was very creepy.
Jiang Ning himself is also enduring unimaginable pain.
But as the situation progressed, Jiang Ning's attacks became faster and more reckless. Now, he fought with increasing ferocity, even disregarding his injuries, focusing solely on offense and neglecting defense, descending into a desperate frenzy.
This resulted in Jiang Ning sustaining more and more serious injuries, which only provoked him to launch even more frenzied attacks. As a result, the people surrounding him were terrified and became hesitant to act.
Everyone knew that Jiang Ning had given up on escaping and was now determined to exchange injury for life, taking more people down with him.
The group, who had previously been determined to take down Jiang Ning even at the cost of their lives, were now filled with fear and dared not get too close to him, lest they be dragged down with him. They retreated immediately after each attack without lingering.
Seeing Jiang Ning's crazy fighting style, even Tao Zhi Xian and Tao Ye Xian, who were in a rage, became much more sober and did not fight so aggressively.
puff!
Jiang Ning stomped on the ground, splashing mud and water everywhere, and charged straight at the old man.
The old man was very close to Jiang Ning. When he saw Jiang Ning rushing straight towards him, his heart pounded. He turned around to run away, but in a flash, Jiang Ning appeared in front of him without him even noticing.
The old man's eyes widened, and Jiang Ning gave him a chilling smile, his bloodshot eyes carrying a hint of madness.
The alarm blared, and the old man instinctively struck out.
Jiang Ning neither dodged nor evaded, taking the blow head-on. At the same time, he flipped his right wrist, changing his grip on the sword from normal to reverse. Jiang Ning then thrust the Zhenwu Sword into the old man's chest with both hands, the tip of the sword emerging from behind, stained with bright red blood.
A sword pierces the heart.
"Uh……"
The old man's eyes widened, and he froze, completely motionless.
"Old man!!"
Zu Qianqiu shouted in alarm.
Jiang Ning drew his sword and swung it.
puff.
The old man fell to the ground, his body turning into a corpse.
"This……"
The rest of the people looked at each other.
Another person has died.
Jiang Ning looked at the people surrounding him and a crazy smile appeared on his face.
"Hehe... Hahahaha."
Jiang Ning's maniacal laughter echoed in everyone's hearts like a death knell.
"Elders, the Left Envoy is dead. What should we do?"
At this moment, Shangguan Yun spoke in a low voice, asking the six elders in yellow robes.
Shangguan Yun wanted to leave at this point, but fearing being held accountable upon returning, he shifted the blame to the six elders in yellow robes.
Previously, Xiang Wentian held the highest position, and they listened to him. Now that Xiang Wentian is dead, the highest-ranking among them are these six elders in yellow robes.
Upon hearing Shangguan Yun's words, the six elders in yellow robes exchanged glances but remained silent.
Because Jiang Ning charged towards them.
……
Its daybreak.
Several more corpses lay on the ground.
Zu Qianqiu... Peach Branch Fairy... Peach Leaf Fairy...
All six immortals of Peach Valley died at the hands of Jiang Ning.
At this point, only the six yellow-robed elders, Shangguan Yun, and Lan Fenghuang remained to besiege Jiangning.
puff!
The Zhenwu Sword was stuck in the ground. Jiang Ning leaned against a bamboo pole, panting heavily. Blood kept seeping from the corner of his mouth. His body was covered with dense wounds, and he was covered in blood.
At this moment, his vision became somewhat blurred when he looked at the eight people.
The eight people on the other side weren't much better off.
The six elders in yellow robes were pale and had several sword wounds on their bodies. Shangguan Yun had even lost an eye.
Another sword wound appeared on Lan Fenghuang's face, crisscrossing the previous one. Jiang Ning had completely disfigured her.
Neither side continued fighting; they were both watching each other.
It was already daylight, and the bamboo forest, which had just experienced a heavy rain, was shrouded in morning mist.
After a while.
Blue Phoenix turned and ran.
Upon seeing Lan Fenghuang disappear in the blink of an eye, Shangguan Yun's expression changed slightly, and he looked at the six yellow-robed elders again.
While the six yellow-robed elders hesitated, Jiang Ning made another move.
Jiang Ning's actions made the group subconsciously change their stance, but to everyone's surprise, Jiang Ning did not attack them. Instead, he turned around and disappeared into the mist.
None of them expected Jiang Ning to run away, and they didn't have time to chase after him. By the time they realized what was happening, Jiang Ning had already disappeared.
"This……"
Several people looked at each other.
"Elders, shall we continue the pursuit?"
Shangguan Yun covered one eye and asked.
The six elders in yellow robes exchanged glances.
"Chasing?"
One person spoke.
The other person, expressionless, countered with, "How do we pursue them?"
None of them moved. After standing silently for a while, they turned and left without giving chase.
……
Jiang Ning walked unsteadily down the main road, as if he were about to fall to the ground at any moment.
Jiang Ning didn't know how long he had walked. He was now completely exhausted and was only moving forward by sheer willpower.
Jiang Ning was in excruciating pain all over his body, his vision became increasingly blurry, and he felt his consciousness gradually fading.
"I can't die... I can't die yet."
Jiang Ning wandered aimlessly, muttering to himself.
"There is still too much evil in the world that has not been eradicated..."
Pfft!
Jiang Ning collapsed to the ground and could not get up.
Before losing consciousness completely, Jiang Ning thought about many things. He had not yet helped Yue Buqun lead the Huashan Sect to its peak, he had not yet punished all the evildoers, and he still had too many things to do.
After an unknown amount of time, a woman passed by. Judging from her attire, she was a woman from a nearby village.
"what!"
Upon seeing a person lying on the ground covered in blood, the woman instinctively screamed.
But when she saw that the person on the ground was not moving, she mustered up her courage and went forward to check. However, after seeing the person's face clearly, the woman screamed.
"Benefactor?"
Chapter 442: Grandpa Ghost, We Were Wrong
September.
Changliu Village.
In a farmyard.
squeak~
A young man carrying a bowl of chicken feed pushed open the door and went outside to feed the chickens.
The young man was dressed in plain clothes, but his face looked very pale and his body was thin, like a sickly person.
Upon seeing the young man, the chickens in the yard all took off running towards him, clucking as they went.
The young man scattered chicken feed on the ground, and the chickens in the yard gathered around him to peck at it.
Seeing this, the young man smiled, but his pale face made him look frail.
Just then, a woman walked over from not far away. Judging from the mud on her body and the tools in her hands, she must have just returned from doing farm work.
The woman was shocked to see the young man when she pushed open the courtyard gate. She quickly put down her things and ran over to take the basin from his hands, saying, "My benefactor, why did you come out? Didn't the doctor say you should rest and recuperate properly?"
The young man smiled and said, "I've been lying in bed for too long, so I came out to stretch my legs. I was thinking of all the trouble you've been taking care of me during this time, so I wanted to do what I could."
The woman's eyes reddened upon hearing this, and she said, "My benefactor, what are you saying? If you hadn't rescued me from those bandits' stronghold, I might never have come back in this life."
The woman continued, “My benefactor, I saw you lying on the ground covered in blood on the road. I don’t know who injured you like this, but you are a righteous and chivalrous person. Those who hurt you must be bad people. They will die a horrible death!”
The woman looked indignant.
The young man was Jiang Ning.
After being seriously injured and leaving the bamboo forest, he collapsed near this village, unable to hold on any longer. He happened to encounter this woman, who saved him.
Every drink and every bite is ordained by Heaven.
If Jiang Ning hadn't encountered this woman after falling into a coma, but instead someone else, he would probably have already lost his life.
When Jiang Ning was on the verge of death, he encountered someone he had once saved. Perhaps it was fate that he was destined to survive.
The woman brought him back when she found him lying on the road covered in blood. To save him, she went to the county town and knelt in every pharmacy before finally getting a doctor to come to the village to treat him. It was the woman's meticulous care that pulled him back from the brink of death.
To save him, the woman sold everything she could in her house.
Fortunately, Jiang Ning survived. Even the doctor who treated him exclaimed that it was a miracle, saying that anyone else would have died from such injuries, but Jiang Ning was able to be saved.
Jiang Ning was also quite moved upon hearing this.
He saved the woman in the mountain stronghold, and she saved Jiang Ning's life in return.
"My benefactor, are you hungry? I'll start a fire and cook for you right away."
The woman carried the basin into the house, and soon smoke rose from the chimney.
Jiang Ning, on the other hand, sat down on a rock in the courtyard to bask in the sun.
He has been rescued and is out of danger, but his injuries are too severe and he will not recover quickly. He needs to recuperate for a period of time, during which time he will stay with the woman temporarily.
Changliu Village is located in Shandong Province, and is a village near Jinan Prefecture. Jiang Ning rescued this woman from one of the mountain strongholds during his campaign against them.
The woman was a villager in this village. She was kidnapped by people from that mountain stronghold when they raided the village half a year ago.
She used to have a husband, but he was killed by a group of bandits. Her father-in-law couldn't bear the blow and fell ill. He passed away not long after, leaving behind her mother-in-law and her two-year-old son. When the woman returned, her mother-in-law had also died from overwork. Now, she and her son are left to depend on each other.
