Chapter 35: Escape
The guards hurriedly entered the room. They almost died due to a heart attack.
" NO, Young Master Ye. YOUNG MASTER YE. DAMN!" They tried to wake up Ye Zheng, But how can a dead person can come back?
" Damn, It must be that fucking Kid." The bodyguard's heart was filled with anger and dread.
Ye Zheng was the only son of Merchant Ye. He is a very influential person in Misty Tower City. The bodyguards may have a decent strength, but only death awaits them if they couldn't capture Yang Shi.
" Hey looks. It seems that the kid escaped from here." One of the bodyguards shouted. They looked at the path.
" I will follow this way. You two guard the exit of Jade Lake Palace. I think that the murderer is still here." One of them said solemnly.
They have to catch the murderer, else they are good as dead.
...........................
" Wew, that was pretty easy. Fooling those guards required so little effort." Yang Shi was dashing out from the Jade Lake Pavilion, a giant fireball shooted at him.
" WHAT?!!!" Yang Shi hurriedly dodged the fireball. The ground charred black by the impact.
" Kid, You have guts to killed our Young Master. Now prepare to endure the tortures of hell." A person emerged from the darkness and spoked coldly to Yang Shi.
This one of three bodyguards of Ye Zheng. Yang Shi didn't think that they will catch up to him this soon. This time, he didn't try to escape, but dashed at the bodyguard.
*Swish**Swish*
Light flashed as the dagger slashed. With a swirling sound, two dagger chopped at the bodyguard.
The bodyguard surprised as he hurriedly tried to dodge. He never thought that a weak looking Yang Shi could unleash such an attack.
" Hmph, Even You have strength, Its far from enough to defeat me." The Bodyguard sneered as he pulled out his broad sword and hacked at Yang Shi.
Even though the Sword looked heavy, The bodyguard effortlessly weld it. A gust of winds blew, when he slashed his sword.
Doing a backflip, Yang Shi waved his arm and shouted " Cresent Wind Blade."
*Swooosh*
Four formless gusts of wind shot at the bodyguard. The bodyguard shouted as he used a sword slash to break the wind blades. Three blades got destroyed, while one damaged his arm.
Blood dripped down his arm as he cried in pain. Yang Shi didn't waste his time and rushed at the bodyguard. He made a hand seal and a spike of flame materialized in his hands.
" Flame Spike." Yang Shi threw the spike at the bodyguard. The bodyguard saw the incoming attack and hurriedly tried to dodge it.
While He dodged this attack, Yang Shi threw one of his dagger to his leg. The dagger flew and punctured the left leg of the bodyguard. The bodyguard stumbled but didn't fell.
The bodyguard now getting restless, seeing the power of Yang Shi. Although he reached the Primordial Spirit Realm, He didn't have good technique or weapon. So he is scared by Yang Shi now.He loudly shouted, " Number Two, Old One, HELP ME!!."
" Damn, Stop shouting." Yang Shi grew worried. If reinforcement comes, He is going to die here.
" Time to finish this in one stroke." Yang Shi didn;t wasted the time and closed his eyes.
Then in a slow-motion, He drew his dagger. Then his hand blurred as blood burst.
The headless body of the bodyguard tumbled down. His decapitated head still has an expression of surprise. Even in the ned, He still didn't know how he died.
Blood dripped down from Yang Shi's arms as his mind filled with pain. He just use Swift Shadow Slash of [ Heaven Evasion Lightning Stealth Art]
This technique was supposed to utilized by a long sword. And Yang Shi didn't practice well. So he received a backlash. His vein couldn't handle the power of Internal Energy.
But The result was enough for Yang Shi. He was able to kill the bodyguard swiftly. He dashed out from Jade Lake Palace. When the other two bodyguards reached the place, They could only saw the headless body of their companion.
" Damned Fucker." They roared.
.......................................
*Phew* " Finally, I am free." Yang Shi came to the Blood Moon Hall and received 35000 Gold Cois.
" Ok, So total I have around 70000 Gold Coins." Yang Shi was elated to think this.
" Now Now, My first Priority will be breaking through the Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm." Yang Shi decided. The next day, Yang Shi bought a Scarlet Blood Grass, A Golden LingZhi, A Calm Spirit Fruit.
" This Should be enough. I am at the Peak of Ninth Stage of Spiritual Ascension. So a little push will be enough." Yang Shi thought inwardly.
Yang Shi ate the Scarlet Blood Grass. His blood began to churn again. From Bright firey color, it changed to a golden liquid.
" Holy Fuck. What is happening to my Blood. Origin Chaos Energy Art is truly strange." Yang Shi grimaced.
It seems the [Blood Saturation Stage] is more than the eye meets. First, his ordinary blood changed to a fiery orange color. Now its in golden color. It seems his blood is slowly going under transformation. It took half a day to finish this process. Yang Shi used both the Golden LingZhi and Calm Spirit Fruit. The spiritual energy was enough for anyone to reach the Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm. But For Yang Shi, It's still not enough.
" What the fuck with this garbage body? How can I ascend to Primordial Spirit Awakening Realm?" Yang Shi roared in mind.
" Wait, It seems I forgot to check the information about the Azure Lotus and Fiery Lily." Yang Shi remembered the Samsara Emperor.
He hurriedly closed his eyes and rummaged through his memory, Looking for information.
