Chapter 143: Desire To Slay The Dragon With A Single Strike
“Master, something is wrong with Junior Brother Jiang,” Lu Jian came to the pavilion and said softly.
“What do you want to ask? Just ask.” Jiu Zhongtian leaned against the wooden pillar beside the pavilion.
Lu Jian was his proud disciple.
His brain wasn’t that bad.
He was here. Who knew Jiang Lan’s situation better than him?
“Is it really okay for Junior Brother to learn the Dragon Slaying Sword?” Lu Jian was very curious about this.
He felt like Jiang Lan wanted to learn it because of his fiancée.
“There’s a problem.” Jiu Zhongtian looked at Jiang Lan and Xiao Yu before saying.
“But the person in question doesn’t seem to care that much.”
Indeed, Jiu Zhongtian didn’t really understand. When Xiao Yu knew that Jiang Lan knew the Dragon Slaying Sword, she didn’t get angry or blame him. Instead, she started learning the Dragon Slaying Sword too.
This was something that no one had expected.
Xiao Yu said the same thing as Zhu Qing. Although she would feel uncomfortable and a little unwilling.
But in the end, she would still try her best to accept it.
As for Jiang Lan.
Jiu Zhongtian had thought that Jiang Lan had learned the Dragon Slaying Sword to slay dragons.
But when he saw Jiang Lan’s previous strike, he realized that he was wrong.
Jiang Lan’s Dragon Slaying Sword didn’t have any intent to slay dragons.
It was as if he knew how to execute it directly without needing to comprehend it first.
It was very unreasonable, but it was also very reasonable for the Dragon Slaying Sword.
It was also unreasonable for him when he had learned the Dragon Slaying Sword.
The person involved did not care about the matter herself?
Lu Jian somewhat understood.
However, he still wanted to chat with Jiang Lan when he had the chance.
If he spoke too much, it would easily give the other party some pressure.
“Master, this is the list sent by Second Summit. If there are no problems, they will start in two years.” Lu Jian handed a piece of paper to Jiu Zhongtian.
Jiu Zhongtian took a glance and burned the paper to ashes.
He did not say a word.
After Lu Jian saw his master’s consent, he retreated to carry on with his matters.
…
Jiang Lan sat on the surface of the lake with the sword light of the Dragon Slaying Sword on his body.
This was the light that appeared as he simulated the Dragon Slaying Sword in his mind.
The light flickered for a long time. Jiang Lan had been trying to see through the Dragon Slaying Sword the thoughts of the farmer when he faced the demonic dragon.
However, no matter how he tried, he was unable to detect it.
Just as he was about to find another way, a beam of light suddenly shone in.
It came from Xiao Yu’s direction.
He looked over and saw a book in front of Xiaoyu.
The light had come from the book.
Following that, the beam of light resonated with Jiang Lan’s Dragon Slaying Sword. Even the Sword Intent in Xiaoyu’s hand began to glow.
Soon, the surface of the lake changed.
The lake water was covered by a layer of ground and the empty ground was occupied by straw huts.
The straw hut had a yard at the back, and the yard had some livestock in it.
Such houses stood in a row.
From the front of the village to the back.
There were two trees at the front of the village.
One was a willow tree.
The other was also a willow tree.
Then, Jiang Lan looked to the side. At this moment, an old farmer brought a hoe and walked towards the back mountain.
The moment Jiang Lan saw him, he had a feeling that the old man was one with the world.
It was as if they had merged into the world.
“It’s him.”
Jiang Lan knew that this was probably the farmer who created the Dragon Slaying Sword.
As the other party advanced, the scene that he could see also changed.
Everything was centered around this farmer.
Xiao Yu was a little surprised. She never thought that she could see the scene that had been recorded in the book.
The demonic dragon was even more confused.
What was this?
But no one spoke. They all looked at the farmer.
This was a hunchbacked old farmer.
Dressed in coarse linen clothes.
He seemed to blend into the wind.
Each of his actions gave off a natural feeling.
He was digging herbs in the back mountain.
He seemed to be finding herbs to treat someone.
After a long time.
The sky suddenly darkened as black clouds pressed down.
The old farmer who was picking herbs was shocked.
He put down the hoe in his hand and threw down the herb he had picked.
He quickly ran towards the village.
The thunder raged and the flood came.
The old farmer ran very quickly, but he was not a young man.
On the way, he fell, but he did not hesitate at all. He immediately got up and continued running towards the village.
Jiang Lan looked at the old farmer and frowned slightly.
Demonic dragon?
This was the first thought that came to his mind.
Such a phenomenon could only be brought by a demonic dragon.
Furthermore, it should be very strong.
At that moment, the old farmer had reached the village. A portion of the peaceful village had been washed away by the rain.
The wind howled as a horned dragon spiraled through the sky.
The house that the old farmer had originally walked out of had shattered. An old woman carried the injured child and ran out of the house in time.
Seeing the old woman come out, the old farmer immediately ran over to welcome her.
Right at that moment, the demonic dragon descended from the sky.
Its gaze swept in all directions.
Some of the villagers were instantly crushed, and some even entered the dragon’s mouth.
The demonic dragon walked towards the old woman and picked up the old woman and the child in her arms.
The old farmer was confused.
He rushed over immediately.
However, the demonic dragon soared into the sky and headed towards the village.
Without any hesitation, the old farmer grabbed an axe meant for chopping firewood and chased after the dragon.
Along the way, he saw broken houses and villagers crying.
Children could be seen lying around, their flesh decorating the grounds.
The livestock ran and hid everywhere, panicking.
Without stopping, the old farmer chased the dragon all the way to the village.
At this moment, he saw the demonic dragon move its mouth and swallow the old woman.
Not only that, but the demonic dragon had also swallowed another few children who were at the front of the village.
In the blink of an eye, half of the children were gone.
The old farmer’s eyes widened in anger as he charged over.
At the last moment, he pulled back the last child.
He protected him and stepped in front of the child.
The demonic dragon was slightly surprised. It glanced at the old farmer with disdain.
Then, he circled in the air and charged towards the old farmer.
The child grabbed the old farmer’s hand in a panic as if he wanted to pull him away.
But the old farmer did not move.
At this moment, the old farmer knew that his life was about to come to an end.
However, he felt indignant.
If the demonic dragon was not eliminated, how could there be peace?
For generations, they had lived under the shadow of the demonic dragon and lived an ignoble existence. Many of their own had entered the dragon’s mouth.
Today, he wanted to slay the dragon.
Even if it was just a slash.
At this moment, the old farmer recalled his life. The changes in the world took form in his heart.
In his eyes, there was only the demonic dragon. He suddenly felt as if he might be able to break through the shackles. A kind of enlightenment arose spontaneously.
He lifted his axe.
At this moment, he stood up straight. His back was no longer hunched, and he stood tall and upright.
At this moment, Sword Intent appeared as thunder and lightning rained down.
The insufferably arrogant demonic dragon suddenly felt fear and began to panic.
Then, it fled in panic.
But how could the sword not fall?
The old farmer’s life was dissipating. His life force seemed to have turned into strength for the axe in his hands, and he was trying his best to make the axe cut down.
The demonic dragon was terrified and turned around to check on what was happening.
However, once it turned around, there was no chance for it to turn back.
Boom!
The demonic dragon was split into two.
Its life force was gone.
The old farmer, on the other hand, maintained his upright figure after cutting down the dragon with his axe. However, upon closer inspection, one would find that he was completely dead.
The coarse linen clothes on his body seemed to have an additional layer of unfathomable luster.
After witnessing the entire process first hand.
Bang!
The scene shattered.
Jiang Lan was still sitting on the lake.
He was thinking about something in his heart.
Xiao Yu, who was at the side, remained calm. However, her hand that was holding the sword trembled slightly.
She closed her eyes, hiding her panic.
The moment the old farmer had raised his axe, she felt fear in her heart.
That strike was terrifying.
The demonic dragon hovered in mid-air. The fear in its heart became even stronger.
However, it didn’t speak, nor did it express it.
