Jade Dynasty: I am the master of the Burning Sword, my swordsmanship is unparalleled.

Chapter 58 Snuggle
Seeing his men falling one after another, the eldest brother became anxious and quickly spoke up.

"Fellow Daoist Lin Feng, do you intend to continue to stand by and watch?"

“Elder Nian, your Crimson Demon Eyes are all show and no substance. You can’t even handle two junior Qingyun disciples. In my opinion, you should step down and give me the position of sect leader.”

Upon hearing this, Lin Feng, who had a wicked look on his face, chuckled and gently shook the folding fan in his hand before speaking.

Hearing that Lin Feng was still up to his old tricks and brought up the past again, the old man snorted coldly and his face turned quite ugly. The beautiful woman, on the other hand, frowned and spoke up to advise him.

"Fellow Daoist Lin Feng, with a formidable enemy at hand, let's focus on repelling them first."

"Hmph, they're just a few junior members of the Qingyun Sect. What's there to fear if they rely on the power of their magic weapons?"

Lin Feng scoffed at this, but despite his words, he also toned down his contempt. He took out a gold-painted folding fan from his pocket, shook it gently, looking quite dashing, but remained motionless.

Zhang Xiaofan reached out and gently touched Lu Xueqi's hand, signaling her to be careful. Lu Xueqi felt a little strange, but with the demonic sect members in front of her and that strange and evil young man, she immediately suppressed all her distracting thoughts and stared warily at the people in front of her.

Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi weren't in a hurry. After all, Qi Hao and Zeng Shushu were busy eliminating the remnants of the demonic sect, and it was enough for them to keep these key figures occupied.

But the old man was extremely anxious. These people in front of him were the core members of the Blood Refining Hall. If they were all eliminated by the disciples of the Azure Cloud Sect, all his efforts over the years would be in vain, and the Blood Refining Hall would be back to square one overnight.

"Lin Feng, if you're not capable, then get out of here. My Blood Refining Hall will handle these junior Qingyun disciples."

In his anger, the old man couldn't help but shout angrily. Lin Feng's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, and he snorted lightly, speaking with a hint of arrogance.

"I was unwilling to join forces with you, as it would be unfair to bully the weak with numbers. But today, if I don't show you my skills, you'll really think I'm lying to you."

As he spoke, Lin Feng tossed the gold-painted folding fan in his hand, and the entire fan emitted a faint golden light in the air before opening with a 'whoosh'.

Zhang Xiaofan and Lu Xueqi looked up and saw a mountain, a river, and a giant roc painted on the folding fan. The brushstrokes were vigorous and powerful, and the painting was lifelike.

As the folding fan was opened, the cave deep underground was instantly filled with swirling winds, billowing clouds, and flashing lightning.

"The Mountain and River Fan, the secret weapon of the Old Ancestor of Fengyue of Jieshi Mountain, Senior Sister Lu, be careful!"

Zhang Xiaofan's eyes narrowed, and he whispered a command. At the same time, dark sword energy gradually rose from the Ink Snow Sword in his hand.

Inside the Qingyun Sect, Zhang Xiaofan had seen records about the Mountain and River Fan. It was said that the mountain and river inside the Mountain and River Fan were created by the creator using great supernatural powers and magic to forcibly refine a mountain and a river into the Mountain and River Fan.

As for the Great Roc, according to the records of the Qingyun Sect, it was a rare species from the primordial era. The soul of the Golden-Winged Roc was captured by special means and refined into the form of the Great Roc.

Although the Mountain and River Fan is not a divine weapon from the Nine Heavens, it is still a rare treasure, and its power is not much less than that of a divine weapon from the Nine Heavens.

Moreover, compared to the Nine Heavens Divine Weapons such as Mo Xue and Tian Ya, the Mountain and River Fan is easier to use and can unleash its power without needing to cultivate other Daoist techniques.

Even without Zhang Xiaofan saying a word, almost the instant the sword energy rose within Zhang Xiaofan's body, Lu Xueqi's magical power subconsciously surged towards the Tianya Sword, and a sky-blue light gradually intensified.

With a loud bang, the mountain inside the Mountain and River Fan flew out of the fan surface. After leaving the fan, the mountain grew in the wind and quickly grew into a hill a hundred feet high, almost filling the entire cave.

"Hmph, such a trivial skill, yet you dare to show off your meager abilities before an expert!" Zhang Xiaofan snorted, and the next moment, the Ink Snow Sword in his hand flew out and, to the astonishment of Elder Nian and the others, burrowed into the ground beneath the hundred-zhang hill.

Immediately afterwards, several streaks of dark sword energy flew out from the bottom of the hill and climbed onto the surrounding rock walls. They then transformed into long, dark chains, seemingly trying to forcibly lock the hundred-foot-tall hill in place.

However, Zhang Xiaofan did not stop there. After releasing the Ink Snow Sword, he quickly formed hand seals and stood at the bottom of the hill, stepping on the Seven Stars.

Beneath that hundred-foot hill, almost no one could see that seven beams of starlight appeared on the earth, outlining the shape of a blue dragon.

"boom!"

Zhang Xiaofan lifted his hands upwards, and the hundred-zhang hill emitted a thunderous sound, as if it had been held up by a pillar supporting the sky.

"Groan!!"

Immediately afterwards, the shadow of a blue dragon emerged from the bottom of the hill, circled the hill once, and then crashed into a certain part of the mountain.

Seeing this, Lu Xueqi, who was already prepared, leaped into the air. The sky-blue sword light on the Tianya Sword in her hand shone brightly, and faintly, there seemed to be the sound of wind and thunder.

The next moment, as Lu Xueqi swung her jade arm, the Tianya Sword slashed down fiercely.

"boom!!"

Zeng Shushu, who had just killed a demonic cult member, felt a sudden tremor. Turning his head, he saw that the hundred-zhang-high hill had been cleaved in two by Tianya's sword.

After the deafening roar, the cleaved mountain rapidly shrank, vanishing into nothingness amidst the flying sand and stones, returning to the mountain and river fan.

However, everyone could clearly see that the shadow of the mountain on the Mountain and River Fan had a very obvious crack, dividing the entire mountain in two.

The eldest son stared at the mountain that had been forcibly split in two. His already twice-sized crimson eyes widened even more, and a hint of regret even appeared in his heart.

If I had known these Qingyun disciples were so troublesome, I should have retreated much earlier, but now there is no way out.

Lu Xueqi fell from mid-air, her steps faltering, and she almost fell to the ground. Seeing this, Zhang Xiaofan, who was holding the Mo Xue sword, quickly reached out his left hand and grabbed Lu Xueqi's left arm. From a distance, it looked as if Lu Xueqi was nestled in Zhang Xiaofan's arms.

It seems that even from a distance, Lu Xueqi, who was somewhat exhausted, was indeed unable to stand. She could only lean lightly against Zhang Xiaofan's chest, tilting her head slightly, as if she dared not look at Zhang Xiaofan's profile.

Seemingly noticing that Lu Xueqi was somewhat exhausted, Zhang Xiaofan didn't say anything, but simply gently put his arm around her to prevent her from falling.

At this moment, Lin Feng's face turned extremely ugly when he saw that the magic weapon had been destroyed by Lu Xueqi and Zhang Xiaofan. He pointed at Lu Xueqi, who was nestled in Zhang Xiaofan's arms, and cursed angrily.

"You two despicable dogs, how dare you ruin my magic weapon! I will not be satisfied until I kill you both today!"

Enraged, Lin Feng leaped into the air, seemingly wanting to personally wield the power of his magical artifact.

Seeing this, Qi Hao and Zeng Shushu immediately abandoned their efforts to eliminate the other demonic cult members and leaped to Zhang Xiaofan's side, ready for battle.
