Limitless Sword God

Lamb in a Tiger’s Den

“There’s no need for courtesy!”

The old lady walked up and supported Long Xian Li up, she giggled, then turned and spoke to the disciples by the side: “Serve tea!”

“Yes, Valley Master!”

The two disciples immediately walked away.

“Sit first.”

The old lady waved her hand, then walked up to the host’s seat.

“Thank you, senior.” Long Xian Li bowed once more, then sat by the side. Her actions were extremely polite and precise without any excess movements.

The old lady saw everything and could not help but nod her head, she seemed to be extremely satisfied by Long Xian Li.

With the tea served, the old lady sipped once, then started to speak up.

“Girl, you’re called Long Xian Li?”

“Yes senior.” Long Xian Li stood up: “I am Sky Martial Continent’s Immortal Sword Sect’s Clan Elder, this is just but a low position, for senior to be willing to meet this lowly one, this lowly one is extremely gratified.”

“I know you are from the Immortal Sword Sect.” The old lady grinned: “But I don’t know why you’re here? Tell me, why are you here?”

“Since senior is so frank, junior will not beat about the bush either.” Long Xian Li bowed, her expression becoming more determined, she spoke: “In truth, the reason for this junior’s arrival is only to bring back my sect disciple Bai Yan Shan.”

“Oh?”

The old lady was startled and asked with curiosity: “According to what I know, Bai Yan Shan isn’t your disciple? Why do you attach so much importance to her? Furthermore, that Lin Xi Shan isn’t here to ask for her, why are you here? Could it be that Lin Xi Shan sent you?”

“Junior’s visit is not from Sect Leader’s intent, but solely on the decision of this junior.” Long Xian Li explained.

“Senior might not know, but although this junior and Bai Yan Shan are not bound by a master disciple relationship, this junior and Yan Shan has an extremely complicated relationship. Yan Shan’s master died many years ago to others and this junior had the ability to take revenge for her, but did not do so. Now, this junior no longer has the chance to take revenge for her, thus this junior owes Yan Shan’s master and owes Yan Shan even more! Ever since that, regardless of anything, this junior will not regret anything, but this junior must bring Yan Shan back and ensure her safety.”

As Long Xian Li explained, she looked straight at the old lady without any intent of backing up or even being afraid.

She was extremely confused in her heart, she knew that she would never be able to kill Su Yun to take revenge for Shen Hong in her life, thus she felt extremely guilty towards Shen Hong. Bai Yan Shan was Shen Hong’s most favourite disciple, thus, she had to bring Bai Yan Shan back, just for the sake of repaying Shen Hong.

The old lady looked at Long Xian Li and a cheeky smile appeared on her face.

“Why are you not able to take revenge for Yan Shan’s master?”

Bai Yan Shan hesitated for a moment, then shook her head: “Forgive this junior for being unable to explain.”

“Haha, if that’s the case, then forget it, but it is impossible for you to bring Bai Yan Shan away.” The old lady said.

“If Senior has any conditions, please say it, Xian Li will do everything she can to realise it for senior.” Long Xian Li anxiously spoke up.

“Oh?” The old lady blinked and nodded her her head: “If you say it like that, then fine, my demand will not be too overboard, if you are willing to stay in Suicide Valley, I will let Bai Yan Shan go back, what about it? A trade for her!”

Hearing that, Long Xian Li nodded her head without hesitation: “Senior, if it is just that, this junior has no issues.”

Hearing that, the old lady was ecstatic: “What? You agreed?”

“Of course, but before that, this junior wants to meet Yan Shan.” Long Xian Li added.

Upon hearing that, the old lady’s smile froze: “Meet Yan Shan?”

“Yes.” Long Xian Li replied: “This junior has a few personal words for Yan Shan, I hope that senior will allow junior to meet Yan Shan.”

“Oh? That’s impossible, if you are willing to stay, then naturally you have to listen to this old one, this old one agreed to let Bai Yan Shan leave, then I will immediately let her leave, and you have to stay, understand? If you are not willing, this old one will immediately send you off and kill Bai Yan Shan!”

“Then can junior know when Bai Yan Shan has safely reached back Emperor Palace?” Long Xian Li asked.

Hearing that, Suicide Witch’s wrinkles became more obvious as she frowned: “You don’t trust in this old one?”

“Xian Li has no other intentions but to feel more at ease, if senior is not satisfied with junior’s request, then I am afraid that junior cannot stay.” Long Xian Li said indifferently.

Bang!

A loud sound exploded in the hall, Suicide Witch was furious, her yellow eyes staring straight at Long Xian Li: “How dare you! You dare to talk to this old one like this? Girl, where do you think you are? Emperor Palace? This is Suicide Valley!”

“For junior to come here, I have already prepared for death, if senior is not willing, junior will definitely not stay in Suicide Valley, even if Junior has to die.” Long Xian Li said with determination, she was unafraid.

She no longer cared about living or dying since a long time ago.

Suicide Valley was so angry that her eyes were dilated, she looked at Long Xian Li in shock, never expecting her to speak such words.

“Damn it damn it, girl! You sought for this, people who offend me, the Suicide Witch, never have a good ending! Humph, since it is so, don’t blame me for being rude! Men!” The old witch bellowed.

Before her servants even arrived, at that moment, a pink bead flew from outside of the hall and landed in the center.

Suicide Witch was stunned, she looked at the bead, which started to crack on its surface, and after that it exploded, causing a dense pink mist to pervade out, it filled the entire hall, the pink mist filled with a dense spice that was able to shroud the affected people’s Spirit Essences, causing them to be unable to use their Spirit Qi to investigate the surrounding area.

Even Long Xian Li had anxiously taken out her weapon as she looked around cautiously.

“Junior sister!”

Right at this time, a soft voice sounded out from the pink mist.

Although her voice was soft, Long Xian Li was able to recognize the owner of the voice.

“Senior sister?” Long Xian Li was startled.

But then she felt a small hand extending over and grabbing onto her hand, and she was anxiously pulled away.

“Quickly come with me, now!”

Hu Qian Mei’s voice sounded anxious.

Hearing that, Long Xian Li no longer hesitated, she followed behind Hu Qian Mei tightly, she had never thought that Hu Qian Mei would run all the way here to save her.

Although Hu Qian Mei was a tough enemy in the Sky Martial Continent, but in the Ultimate Martial World, her cultivation was not considered high. It wasn’t just Hu Qian Mei, even Long Xian Li herself is considered to be of average strength, to rush to Suicide Valley to rescue Bai Yan Shan actually required a great deal of courage from her.

“Could it be that senior sister still cares about me? If not, why would she be here?” Long Xian Li’s emotions was complicated.

However, it was not the time to think about that, Suicide Witch was furious, negotiations were no longer possible, and she had no choice but to leave.

Hu Qian Mei seemed to be familiar with the place, she moved with ease around while bringing Long Xian Li out of the strange woods and directly flew out of the valley, the two of them activated their Profound Spirit Qi and rushed out like the wind.

One white and one red streak of light flew in the horizon.

“Senior sister, why are you here?”

Long Xian Li looked at Hu Qian Mei beside her, who was dressed in pink and still looking as naive as ever as she asked.

“Humph, you are only worthy to die in my hands, I will not allow that witch to kill you.” Hu Qian Mei snorted, her words obviously did not mean what she thought.

Long Xian Li did not say a word, but her face was riddled with complicated emotions.

Hu Qian Mei looked at her and sighed, then spoke out: “But I have to say, aren’t you overestimating yourself? You actually came here alone, you’ve only been in the Ultimate Martial World for a short time and you were even brought over by the Emperor Palace, you should know what kind of person that Suicide Witch is right? You actually ran over here to find someone, aren’t you just a lamb walking in a tiger’s den? Don’t you know what kind of person she is? What qualifications do you have to get Suicide Witch to hand over Bai Yan Shan to you?”

Long Xian Li bit her lips and said: “I have my guilt towards Clan Elder Shen Hong, although I am not sure if I can be successful in this move, if I remain indifferent, how can I be at peace with myself?”

“So inflexible!”

Hu Qian Mei whined. But then she changed her words: “But if you’re not that upright, it will be unlike you.”

“….”

Whooosh!

Right then, a loud thunder suddenly clapped in the sky, after that, two green figures flew out from the clouds and rushed towards them.

The two of them were shocked, and immediately raised their weapons to block the thunder.

Dong!

Although they managed to block the thunder, they were unable to resist the powerful force accumulated in it, the two of them dropped from the sky to the ground and sustained injuries, making it difficult for them to stand up.

Hu Qian Mei coughed a few times before struggling, wanting to prop herself up.

Just then, a large green cloud floated in the sky and landed on the hill nearby. When it dissipated, a few figures flew out from the cloud. All of them were dressed in Suicide Valley’s robes and the one in the lead, was Suicide Valley’s Suicide Witch!

So fast!

They actually chased up so quickly.

“Hehe, you two sure have the courage to actually run into my Suicide Valley and create trouble! Girl, this old one admires you, but do you think that you can rely on your petty tricks and escape under this old woman’s hands? Aren’t you over indulging in your own fantasies?”

Suicide Witch walked over with her cane while smiling, a gleam flashed past her eyes as she looked at Hu Qian Mei.

Upon seeing that, Hu Qian Mei secretly swallowed the blood in her mouth and laughed: “Eh? Old Granny, so you actually reacted? Oh my oh my, actually, this junior was just joking with you, old granny, you shouldn’t mind us, at most, we will just apologize to you?”

“Heh, your mouth sure is sweet and slippery, but it’s no use, this old woman will not take such things!”

The old witch snorted, her expression changed as she waved her hands at Hu Qian Mei coldly: “However, to provoke this old one, you have to pay the price! Kill her! Take her spirit and soul, I want to refine them into medicinal pills!”

“Yes!” A few Suicide Valley disciples shouted loudly.

Hearing that, Long Xian Li’s face changed: “No!”

“What? Is she important to you?” Suicide Witch looked at Long Xian Li with interest.

“She…. She…” Long Xian Li did not know how to reply.

“Heh, since she’s not important to you, why do you care what happens to her?”

“Senior, you can’t kill her!”

“Who are you to dictate who I can kill or not?”

Suicide Witch snorted.

Long Xian Li gritted her teeth, she thought for a moment then spoke: “Senior if you do not kill my senior sister, Long Xian Li will do anything for senior! Long Xian Li will never go against Senior’s words!”

“Oh? Really?” Upon hearing that, Suicide Witch’s attention changed.

“Junior sister, you’re too naive, can’t you see that she is intentionally doing this? She just wants you to say such words!” Hu Qian Mei said anxiously.

“But senior sister, I can’t bring you down with me!”

“You… Sigh.”

Hu Qian Mei no longer knew what to say.

Long Xian Li turned and looked at Suicide Witch: “Senior, please let my senior sister go now, let her leave and once she leaves, I will return to Suicide Valley with you, if even a hair on her is missing, I will immediately shatter my spirit and soul!”

Suicide Witch nodded her head and spoke to Hu Qian Mei: “Leave!”

Hu Qian Mei looked at Long Xian Li with a complicated look in her eyes, she then looked at Suicide Witch, where her eyes gleamed, as though she had thought of something.

“Still not leaving?”

The old witch was impatient.

Hu Qian Mei snorted secretly, without saying anything else, she turned and left.

Seeing that, Long Xian Li’s anxious heart calmed down.
