Chapter 740: Who Wins and Who Loses
When Guluo said this, it created a huge wave in everyone’s hearts once again.
Clearly, Jiang Yun’s request exceeded what Guluo could tolerate, finally pushing Guluo to take action against him!
The people from the Qiao and Liu families naturally had very different feelings.
Qiao Xiangrong and the others were overjoyed that their master was willing to protect them after all.
As long as their master took action personally, even if Jiang Yun was truly a strong warrior from the Sky Blessed Realm, he definitely wouldn’t stand a chance against their master.
It would be best if Jiang Yun could anger their master enough to be directly defeated by him. Then, the outskirts of Peach Blossom City would still be under the control of the Qiao family.
Moreover, after this incident, the prestige of the Qiao family would rise even higher!
Although Qiao Xiangrong couldn’t help but dream about a bright future, his face showed a worried expression that made others think he was concerned about his master’s safety.
Compared to the joy of the Qiao family, Liu Siyuan and Liu Zhendong felt bitter inside.
However, the Liu family were not completely hopeless because even though Guluo showed intentions to attack Jiang Yun, Jiang Yun remained calm and composed.
Jiang Yun’s composure also gave them some hope and confidence.
Especially Liu Peng, who strongly believed that Jiang Yun would surely defeat Guluo!
At this moment, Jiang Yun was not shocked at all.
He was very aware that a battle between himself and Guluo was inevitable.
However, this battle seemed more like a test of his true strength rather than Guluo acting for the Qiao family.
Of course, this didn’t mean he had nothing to worry about.
If his true strength didn’t satisfy Guluo, Guluo might take the opportunity to eliminate him.
Jiang Yun’s thoughts raced in his mind as he wondered if Guluo truly needed his help.
If so, what kind of help was needed and what role would he play in this situation?
"Two possibilities!"
"One possibility is my Hidden Tao Sword, and the other possibility is my identity as a Demon Refiner!"
Jiang Yun’s eyes narrowed slightly, and it was vaguely apparent that Guluo may not be too hostile towards him due to these two possibilities.
His confrontation with the Qiao family only displayed the power of water and the power of the sword.
The strength of the Boundary Sea may seem intimidating, but in reality, it is not very powerful. Only the Hidden Tao Sword as a Dao Tool might catch the attention of Guluo, a cultivator of the Sky Blessed Realm.
In addition, there was his identity as a Demon Refiner.
Since he could sense Guluo’s demonic energy, it was likely that Guluo, with his cultivation level, could also be aware of his identity as a Demon Refiner.
Therefore, at this moment, Guluo’s confrontation with himself is simply to confirm these two possibilities!
Thinking of this, Jiang Yun nodded and said, "Since Taoist Friend Gu wants to protect your disciple, then I will naturally accept it, please!"
However, Guluo’s gaze suddenly moved to the black bird on Jiang Yun’s shoulder and said, "I wonder if Taoist Friend is going to fight me alone, or do you want to add this black bird…?"
This sentence not only made everyone gasp in surprise again, but even Jiang Yun was slightly astonished.
No one would think that the black bird now would be the esteemed Fire God, but Guluo seemed to have noticed a clue.
And from what he said, it seemed like he was a bit wary of Firebird!
Although Jiang Yun already knew that Firebird’s true strength was definitely more than the Tao Spiritual Realm, he did not expect that even a cultivator of the Sky Blessed Realm would look up to it.
Jiang Yun couldn’t help but glance at Firebird, who at this moment held its head high and its eyes contained a sense of pride, obviously quite satisfied with Guluo’s high regard.
However, Jiang Yun was resolute in his heart because of Guluo’s question, and he smiled slightly, saying, "Taoist Friend, rest assured, I will handle it myself!"
Guluo looked deeply at Firebird again, then turned his gaze back and said, "Please go ahead!"
Jiang Yun waved the Hidden Tao Sword in his hand, and as the Tao Mark entered it, the sword’s light and energy suddenly surged. At the same time, a Demon Refining Pen appeared in Jiang Yun’s other hand!
At the moment when the Demon Refining Pen appeared, both Firebird and Guluo’s eyes flashed with a gleam.
Especially Firebird, who spread its wings directly, leaving Jiang Yun’s shoulder and flying into the air, staring intently at the Demon Refining Pen in Jiang Yun’s hand.
Although Firebird was also a member of the demon race with considerable strength, outside the ordinary world, Demon Refiners were extremely rare. It had never seen one before and didn’t even know they existed.
Out of instinct, Firebird felt that Jiang Yun’s pen could pose a great threat to itself.
Seeing Guluo’s reaction, Jiang Yun smiled slightly and, with a flicker of movement, he was already in front of him.
The Hidden Tao Sword rose high, emitting countless sword energies that once again turned into a streak of sword light, sweeping towards Guluo.
A look of caution appeared on Guluo’s face as he raised his hand and lightly drew in the air, causing a green bamboo to appear in front of him. Like a sharp sword, it faced the streak of sword light.
"Boom!"
The clash caused the sword light to disappear instantly, but the green bamboo remained unharmed. At that moment, Jiang Yun appeared in front of Guluo and suddenly shouted three words.
"Calm, Ocean, Seal!"
With these words, both the green bamboo and Guluo were immobilized in midair, unable to move.
"Puff!"
Immediately, Jiang Yun bit his tongue, sprayed blood, and used the Demon Refining Pen to draw the Evil Suppression Seal on Guluo’s face with blood as ink.
Jiang Yun had used the same technique when fighting Hai Changsheng before, underestimating Hai Changsheng’s strength and the duration of the Art of Freezing Sea, which led to his failure.
Now in the Tao Spiritual Realm, Jiang Yun could freeze Guluo for at least three breaths with the Freezing Sea.
Within one breath, Jiang Yun completed the Evil Suppression Seal, and in the remaining two breaths, he successfully drew the first stroke of the Demonic Life-Death Seal.
In an instant, a strong wind blew inside the Dao Prison, and a large amount of demonic energy swarmed towards Guluo from all directions, weakening his presence instantly.
However, at that moment, Jiang Yun swiftly stepped back, creating distance between him and Guluo, calmly gazing at him without saying a word.
Guluo also stared back at Jiang Yun in silence.
This strange scene puzzled everyone present, as they did not understand what was happening.
It had been less than ten breaths since the two of them started their confrontation. Could the outcome have been determined so quickly?
Who emerged victorious, and who was defeated?
Finally, a slight smile appeared on Guluo’s face as he said, "After careful consideration, the advice from Taoist Friend Gu to eradicate the roots is indeed wise!"
"Moreover, it was the lax discipline of my followers that led to the trouble today. In that case, I will adhere to Taoist Friend Gu’s previous request."
"Henceforth, there will be no more Qiao family in Peach Blossom City!"
