Sword Roaring in the Sky

Chapter 17: The Value of the Top Ten Sword Sects (Seeking Monthly Tickets)
"Scorpio Cult! Lao Ai."

Zhang Qingxi was slightly surprised and exclaimed, "It turned out to be the Scorpio Cult's Young Master in person."

The woman in black said calmly, "My father is no longer the leader."

Although Zhang Qingxi was slightly surprised, he did not ask further questions. Whether the Scorpio Cult had changed its leader, what did it have to do with him?
Sun Yanwan had just traveled here and had followed Miao Youxiu and Zhang Yuanqiao for a short time. She had not heard the two masters talk much about things in the martial arts world, and had no idea about the origins of the Scorpio Cult.

Seeing that the eldest brother was still calm, he quietly asked, "Is the Scorpio Cult powerful?"

Zhang Qingxi couldn't help but smile and said, "If Master didn't divide the sect, you and I could both receive a tribute from the Scorpio Sect every year."

Sun Yanwan was startled. Only then did he realize the importance of being the leader of the ten great sword sects. He lowered his voice and asked again, "Are we considered to be clearing out the sect?"

Zhang Qingxi shook his head and said, "The Scorpio Cult is not yet qualified to join our sect."

Sun Yanwan realized that he had underestimated the reputation of the Songyang Sect and asked hurriedly, "What do you think we should do, Senior Brother?"

Lao Ai's heart sank when he heard the two young Taoist priests mumbling to each other. He secretly exclaimed, "Our Scorpio Sect is located in the southwest, and we only send gifts to three major sects every year. Shaochan Temple is a Buddhist sect, so of course it is not. Could it be that these two young Taoist priests are from the Longmen Sect?"

"You can't be from the Songyang Sect, right?"

"The Longmen Sect definitely cannot afford to offend."

"If it is... Songyang Sect!"

"Not to mention the Scorpio Cult, even the person behind us will probably be kept silent."

"This is terrible."

Lao Ai cupped his hands and asked politely, "I still don't know the titles of the two young Taoist priests, and what are their origins?"

Zhang Qingxi smiled slightly and said, "You don't need to know."

Sun Yanwan thought to himself, "Big Brother is quite straightforward. There's no need to explain anything to a dead person."

The two sides have become enemies, and Zhang Qingxi is not a pedantic person. He has already decided to kill someone. He raised the Demon-Slaying Sword into the air and thrust it out with a flat sword, giving off a brutal aura of ten sweeps and ten decisions.

Sun Yanwan's eyes lit up as he watched, thinking to himself, "This sword technique used by Senior Brother is different from the one just now. It's extremely powerful and more to my liking."

Lao Ai gritted his teeth, flipped his hands, and a long whip flew out. He shook it in the air, and it was like a strange python, flying all over the sky.

This whip technique made Sun Yanwan feel awe-inspiring, and she secretly exclaimed, "This woman's martial arts skills are quite good..."

"Okay! I can't tell who's better at martial arts, her, Hu Fengwei, Master Miao, or the eldest senior brother!"

After all, Sun Yanwan had only been practicing martial arts for a few months, so his vision and knowledge were insignificant.

Although Lao Ai's martial arts skills are good, how can he be taken seriously by the outstanding disciple of the previous generation and the first disciple of the contemporary grandmaster?

Zhang Qingxi ignored Lao Ai's long whip. When the whip shadow, like a strange python, came closer, it was blown away by a burst of true power and could not get close to him at all.

Seeing this, Lao Ai was terrified. This young Taoist's martial arts skills were so high that he had never seen them before. Knowing he was inferior to them, he quickly retreated, unleashing the full force of the Scorpio Sect's secret scorpion tail whip technique, striking with his long whip repeatedly in an attempt to block Zhang Qingxi's sword strike. The two men crossed paths amidst the blazing sky, and then there was a crisp bang, and Lao Ai's long whip was slashed by the sword's light, breaking into seventeen or eighteen pieces.

Zhang Qingxi landed gracefully and shouted, "Young Master has some skills. He can actually be used against my sword."

Lao Ai had never expected that even with all her might, she still couldn't withstand Zhang Qingxi's casual sword strike. A chill ran through her bones, so how could she dare to answer? She shouted, "Release your hidden weapon!"

Lao Ai originally thought that since she was over a decade older, had practiced martial arts diligently, and had a strong reputation in the martial arts world, and had encountered few rivals in her life, even if this young Taoist priest was a disciple of the Longmen School or even the Songyang School, he was too young and might not be much stronger than her! But once they started fighting, she realized how wrong she was. Zhang Qingxi's swordsmanship was terrifyingly strong. Even her father, the old leader of the Scorpio Sect, might not be Zhang Qingxi's opponent.

What's more, there is a little Taoist priest nearby!

She didn't know that Sun Yanwan had only learned martial arts for a few months, and there was a huge gap between her martial arts skills and Zhang Qingxi's, who had been personally trained by Zhang Yuanqiao since childhood.

The Scorpio Cult brought hundreds of people with them this time. Although dozens of people died, they were still numerous and powerful. Suddenly, dozens of hidden weapons flew into the air.

Zhang Qingxi shouted, and the Demon-Slaying Sword turned into a rainbow around his body, knocking out all the hidden weapons.

Sun Yanwan didn't have this ability. He drew his sword, waved it around, and quickly rolled on the ground, hiding behind a burning house.

If Zhang Qingxi was alone, he would have nothing to fear, but with this burden on him, he didn't dare to act rashly. He retreated to his junior brother's side and protected Sun Yanwan with his sword.

Lao Ai didn't dare to stay at all. She used all her strength to display her lightness skills, and even ignored her subordinates. She was absolutely sure that she would not be able to block Zhang Qingxi's next sword, and she would definitely lose her life if she stayed.

Zhang Qingxi sighed and said, "This woman was so quick to react, but she still managed to escape."

"However, now that we know it was the Scorpio Cult that did it, we'll just go find them later."

Sun Yanwan watched as his senior brother displayed his divine power, forcing Lao Ai to flee in panic with just one sword strike. He was filled with admiration and exclaimed, "Senior brother is right!"

The Scorpio Cult members unleashed a barrage of hidden weapons, and seeing Lao Ai flee, they immediately panicked. Just then, a large, red-faced man shouted, "Lao Ai has deserted the battlefield. The Cult Leader will punish you. If you don't want to work hard, do you know what the punishment will be?"

These Scorpio Cult members were forced into a corner, each holding their weapons and charging from all directions.

Zhang Qingxi smiled coldly and said, "Second Junior Brother, watch how I kill people."

Sun Yanwan thought to himself, "If these things didn't use hidden weapons, I could still help Senior Brother, but when they use hidden weapons, I'm not very good at it. The Hu family's Demon-Slaying Sword Technique still hasn't been practiced enough!"

Zhang Qingxi rushed into the Scorpio Sect with a sword in hand. His body moved like a floating stream, sometimes looking forward, sometimes looking backward, sometimes looking left, sometimes right. His long sword was like a swimming dragon, and in an instant, more than ten people were stabbed down.

Although this first disciple of Taiyi Temple is not very old, he has rich experience in the martial arts world. Just now, Lao Ai was defeated and turned away, but the red-faced man was giving orders. It is obvious that something has happened inside the Scorpio Sect and the Lao family can no longer control the gang members.

"This man is a leader, he must be killed first."

Zhang Qingxi unleashed the Wind Riding Technique, rising into the air like a swan flapping its wings. His body was swaying, and he charged straight at the red-faced man. The red-faced man had never imagined that Zhang Qingxi, despite being young, could possess such advanced martial arts skills. Surrounded by over a hundred men, he could still move freely. Terrified, he hurriedly tried to retreat, but how could he?

His martial arts skills were not as good as Lao Ai's, and his lightness skills were far inferior. Zhang Qingxi floated past and took the man's life with a casual sword strike.
