After Being Possessed By A Witch, I Became An Outlaw

Chapter 57: Breaking the Enemy in the Small Forest

Zhang Chi stayed in the Spiritual Medicine Valley for a long time and only bid farewell and left after noon.

Tang Feng took a step ahead and went to the Sword Sect for a meeting.

This is how the Righteous Dao Sect operates, where matters big and small are discussed together.

Yesterday evening, there was a lengthy dispute about the matter of the elder stationed at the Spirit Stone Cave, and no agreement was reached.

All parties have not yet considered it thoroughly, so it was decided to discuss it again this afternoon.

Tang Feng wasn't interested in this matter. Selling medicine was enough to sustain the life of the Spiritual Medicine Valley.

But he still had to attend these meetings, otherwise, it would be impossible to maintain the dignity of the Left River League.

After learning that Tang Feng had gone to the meeting, Zhang Chi felt more at ease.

After bidding farewell to Tang Ruoling, he soared into the air on his flying sword and flew towards the direction of the Sword Sect.

The distance between the Sword Sect and the Spiritual Medicine Valley is not far for cultivators, about a hundred kilometers, and it only takes a short while to fly there.

However, this doesn't mean that there won't be any danger along the way.

While Zhang Chi was flying, a cold arrow suddenly flew towards him.

But Zhang Chi was prepared and was actually somewhat delighted to discover that someone was ambushing him.

The fish took the bait. From this moment on, he would officially accelerate the plan he had devised to eliminate the entire family of the Grand Elder.

Previously, it was just minor skirmishes, laying the groundwork for their demise. Now, it was time for a real battle.

After being attacked, Zhang Chi stopped flying and descended directly to the ground.

Zhou You, who was hiding in the forest, couldn't help but shake his head.

Zhang Chi's combat experience was too lacking. The cold arrow clearly came from the forest, but instead of running away, he chose to land?

Was he so skilled that he intended to collide head-on with him?

As a Foundation Building Stage cultivator, Zhou You felt no pressure in facing Zhang Chi.

He quietly waited for Zhang Chi to land, his sword already prepared in his hand.

When Zhang Chi landed and saw Zhou You with a masked face holding a sword, his fighting spirit also soared.

Now, he could activate the Infinite Self-defense Mode.

Originally, Zhang Chi had planned to personally fight Zhou You. After all, he had broken through to the half-step Foundation Building Stage, which was the realm he had prepared for challenging opponents of a higher level.

But after taking a glance at the sword in Zhou You's hand and thinking it over, he changed his mind.

Swords and blades have no eyes. What if something went wrong by accident?

It's better not to challenge opponents of a higher level. There's no need to waste such a huge advantage.

Second Brother, come out, it's your turn!

Gu Youyou: "......"

When Zhang Chi was making his plan, Gu Youyou actually admired him a little. Although he was a bit cunning, he was still a man, and she appreciated that.

But in the end, this guy turned out to be both cunning and cowardly, trying to escape at the last moment!

However, his concerns were not unfounded.

Swords and blades have no eyes. If they were to engage in combat and one of them wasn't careful, they could lose their life. At that time, she wouldn't be able to save him either.

If she could act freely, there would be no problem in guarding a battle at the Foundation Building Stage.

But in order to control Zhang Chi's body, she needed a certain amount of time. With that time, Zhang Chi could die several times over.

The power of the Divine Soul could indeed cause great impact on the enemy, but it was limited to the Divine Soul. If she were to intervene when the opponent's sword had already swung, Zhang Chi could still get injured.

It's better to be cautious.

After taking control of the body, Gu Youyou calmly raised her hand and casually blocked the sword strike, then began to counterattack.

She didn't use any sword techniques, just the simplest way of striking with a sword, while Zhou You used the moves from the Great River Sword Scripture, with waves of sword qi.

And Gu Youyou was like a giant rock being struck by waves, standing firm.

Seeing this, Zhou You was also somewhat surprised. This Zhang Chi kid truly lived up to his reputation as the senior brother of the younger generation. His strength was indeed remarkable.

Since that's the case, he should show his true strength.

He mobilized True Qi, merging his body with the sword, and began to spin.

"Be careful, this is the Furious Wind Three Waves."

Zhang Chi explained to Gu Youyou.

He noticed that Gu Youyou usually practiced Qi Refining in secret and didn't have much time to practice sword techniques, so he reminded her.

The Great River Sword Scripture has four great techniques, one of which is Breaking Waves. This move has a simple posture, slashing forward with the sword. The technique is simple, but it has great power, capable of breaking waves and shattering stones. It happens to also counter another great technique, the Furious Wind Three Waves.

The name is plain and unadorned, with a touch of adolescent aura, but this move is not simple. It is a fusion of wind and waves in swordsmanship.

As he spun, each sword strike became stronger than the last.

Three waves doesn't mean it can only be stacked three times, but rather it means a minimum of three times.

When Zhang Chi practiced these sword techniques, he always thought of playing as Garen in his past life. This skill matches up perfectly.

Although the Sword Sect has its own techniques to counter its own great techniques, it's not so easy to decipher them.

The key is to use the Breaking Waves technique at the right moment and with sufficient intensity.

If it's not strong enough, not only will it not break the waves, but it will also be washed away by them.

Choosing the wrong moment is equivalent to wasting the move.

Of course, this doesn't pose a challenge for Gu Youyou. The sword techniques used by Zhou You are all flaws in her eyes.

She didn't even use the Breaking Waves technique. She simply dodged the blade as Zhou You spun, swiftly made a move, and cut his wrist, severing his tendons.

Naturally, Zhou You's technique was broken. He couldn't hold onto the sword, which flew out. Before he could react, he spun around again, and Gu Youyou had already placed the sword against his neck.

Zhou You's face was filled with confusion.

How is this possible!

He was actually defeated by Zhang Chi, a Qi Condensation stage disciple, and now he was at someone else's mercy.

He just didn't know why Zhang Chi didn't kill him directly.

Their encounter didn't involve any small talk. They went straight into battle. Zhang Chi was probably afraid that Zhou You would recognize him, and now it seems he can't afford to make a mistake.

At this moment, Zhou You was still quite naive, thinking that if he admitted his mistake and begged for mercy, Zhang Chi, with his personality, might spare him.

But he guessed wrong.

It wasn't that Zhang Chi didn't want to kill him, but that he was temporarily switching accounts.

It's like in a game when a power leveler brings the damage to the maximum and waits for the boss to have just a sliver of health left.

In reality, the situation is similar.

Zhang Chi has never killed anyone before, and he needs to practice.

He can refuse to fight against challenges that are beyond his level out of caution, but he can't be afraid to kill.

Although he has long been cultivating his killing intent, he has never actually acted on it. Even Zi Mian from last night didn't die in the end.

This guy should die!

"Zhang Chi, it's me, I... "

Zhou You didn't finish his sentence. Zhang Chi didn't hesitate for a moment and quickly swung his sword.

"Hmph, don't think you can disturb my heart."

"Ugh... ugh..."

Zhou You tried to speak and defend himself in pain, but he couldn't say a word. He covered his throat, his eyes wide open, filled with agony and pleading.

This is the gaze of a dying person. Zhang Chi looked at it, and couldn't help but feel a bit moved.

But he didn't look away, instead forcing himself to maintain a cold and ruthless gaze towards these eyes filled with a desire to survive.

Don't let pity arise because of the enemy's misery. If the roles were reversed, they wouldn't show mercy either.

If Zhang Chi didn't have enough strength, he would be the one lying on the ground begging for mercy right now.

Zhang Chi is well aware of this, so he is tempering his own heart.

Remember this scene and take it as a lesson.

Gu Youyou could understand Zhang Chi's state of mind and couldn't help but sigh. This is what a true ruthless person looks like!
