Chapter 70: Desperate Struggle!

  Such a way of dying is indeed cruel, but in Xiao Yun's view, those who kill people will always be killed by others. Since they dare to take their own lives, they should be prepared to be killed. He doesn't want to leave any threats around him, and if Qin Yu comes again, he will also kill her without hesitation.

  Qin Yu's corpse was still burning, his gaze fell on Lu Jianfeng's body, Xiao Yun's anger turned to laughter, "When people respect me for one foot, I respect them for ten feet. Is it that only you are allowed to kill me, but not allowed to kill you? Furthermore, this Qin guy just asked you for help, why didn't you save him? Let your own junior brother come up and deliver himself to death, while you hide far away. If we talk about ruthlessness, haha, Lu Jianfeng, you are more ruthless than me."

  "How dare you!"

  Lu Jianfen was furious and speechless after being lectured by Xiao Yun, and in his rage, he rushed straight up the mountain ridge.

  "Whoosh!"

  Seeing Lu Jianfeng's momentum, Xiao Yun didn't dare to slack off and took out another fifth-grade battle symbol, throwing it at Lu Jianfeng.

  With Qin Yu's lesson in mind, Lu Jianfeng was impulsive but didn't relax his vigilance. Seeing another fifth-grade battle symbol, he immediately turned around to dodge and narrowly avoided being locked down by the musical note's aura.

  If he were to be locked down, the might of the 5th rank music symbol would be enough to make him unable to escape, and he would end up dead with no place to bury his body. Returning to the slope below, Lu Jianfeng's heart still had lingering fears, and he looked up at Xiao Yun with some difficulty in believing that this guy actually had a 5th rank music symbol!

  Lu Jianfeng's jealousy was even more intense, to know that he was the most favored disciple of Yuan Hua Zhenren, and also quite favored by the sect leader Zhong Ai. Despite this, he only had a few fourth-grade music notes on him, as for fifth-grade music notes, it was simply unthinkable. But in Xiao Yun's hands, there were large quantities of music notes being squandered, how could his already unbalanced heart accept this?

  In his view, these music scores must have been given to Xiao Yun by Mu Tianen, otherwise, how could Xiao Yun, a former kitchen servant, afford to buy so many music scores with his crystal?

  Xin Dao's favoritism towards Xiao Yun was evident in the numerous protective charms he had given him. This alone showed how highly valued Xiao Yun was, and it ignited a fierce flame of jealousy within Lu Jian Feng. At this moment, his determination to kill Xiao Yun grew even stronger. His own position within Tian Yin Sect would not allow anyone to shake it.

  Qin Yu's body was soon burned into a pile of human-shaped black ash. Lu Jianfeng stood at the foot of the slope, frowning and thinking about how to deal with Xiao Yun, because he didn't know if Xiao Yun still had any fifth-grade music symbols in his hand, so he didn't dare to rush up recklessly, otherwise one misstep would easily lead to disaster. At this moment, he no longer dared to underestimate Xiao Yun.

  "What's wrong, don't dare to come up?"

  Xiao Yun looked at Lu Jianfeng with a playful face, wanting to use words to provoke him, so that Lu Jianfeng would come up and die. Otherwise, Lu Jianfeng was hiding under the slope, and the two were too far apart, making it difficult for Le Fu to harm him, and the two could only be at a stalemate.

  Looking up at Xiao Yun, Lu Jianfeng said in a stern voice, "Fine, I'd like to see who can outlast the other. Once your music notes are exhausted, it will be your death sentence."

  After finishing speaking, Lu Jianfeng directly sat down cross-legged at the foot of the mountain slope, raised his head and looked at Xiao Yun with a gloomy gaze, as if preparing to wait it out with Xiao Yun like this.

  "Are you playing truant?"

  This is completely not Lu Jianfeng's character, he was so excited and didn't react at all. Xiao Yun was stunned for a moment, then took out another 5th-level music note, always on guard against Lu Jianfeng's sudden attack.

  The fourth-order musical note was used up, and the third-order musical note was also consumed. There were still four fifth-order musical notes and one sixth-order musical note left on his body. Facing Lu Jianfeng, Xiao Yun didn't have too much worry.

  Xiao Yun's physical skills were not inferior to his, and Lu Jianfeng was at most a mid-term music worker. Even if he could escape from the five-stage music symbol, he would definitely be no match for the six-stage music symbol. However, Xiao Yun didn't want to waste such precious music symbols on Lu Jianfeng. After all, the road in the Holy Ruins was still long, and he had to save his music symbols to deal with potential dangers that might arise later.

  "Sure enough, there's still music!"

  Seeing the musical notes on Xiao Yun's hand, Lu Jianfeng's face flashed with a hint of venom, and it was really unknown how many good things this kid had on him.

  Xiao Yun had five musical notes in his hand, and Lu Jianfeng dared not to rush up again. The battle was stuck in a stalemate, and Lu Jianfeng sat down calmly, competing with Xiao Yun in endurance.

  One minute, two minutes...

  Lu Jianfeng's patience was quite good, and after about half a time, Lu Jianfeng was like an old monk entering meditation, refusing to come up again. Xiao Yun wanted to take the opportunity to leave, but in his heart, he was not willing to give up, and subconsciously, Xiao Yun really wanted to get rid of Lu Jianfeng once and for all. If he let him go alive, Xiao Yun's troubles would be big.

  As long as Lu Jianfeng tells others that Qin Yu was killed by Xiao Yun, Xiao Yun will inevitably be saddled with the crime of fratricide. When he returns to Tianyin Sect, it's unknown how he'll be dealt with. Therefore, if possible, Lu Jianfeng must be eliminated.

  Lu Jianfeng didn't dare to come up, and Xiao Yun also didn't dare to go down. After all, the other party's realm was much higher than his own. Going down would undoubtedly be looking for death, but not going down, how could he kill him?

  After thinking for a long time, he still couldn't come up with a good countermeasure. The words were mutually provocative, and Lu Jianfeng simply didn't listen, refusing to come forward or leave. Xiao Yun was in a difficult situation.

  "You play by yourself, I'm leaving first!"

  Xiao Yun dropped a sentence and directly used his movement technique to turn around and leave. Although he really wanted to kill Lu Jianfeng, what was most important to him now was to go find the Zu Yin fruit. Personal grievances could be settled later.

  If Lu Jianfeng can walk out of Shengji safely, then he won't return to Boya Mountain. As long as he can find the Zu Yin fruit to change his root bone, relying on his own ability, even if he wanders the world, it doesn't matter. Who knows, maybe one day he'll become a generation's great hero.

  "Hmph, think you can run? It's not that easy!"

  Lu Jianfeng seemed to be careless, but his attention never left Xiao Yun. How could he let Xiao Yun escape so easily? With a sudden movement, he stood up, holding the zither with one hand, and quickly chased after him up the mountain slope.

  "Hum!"

  Just as he climbed up the mountain ridge, he heard a familiar buzzing sound. A stream of light shot towards Lu Jianfeng's head, and Lu Jianfeng's pupils contracted. Subconsciously, he rolled on the ground, narrowly avoiding being hit by a large cluster of fireballs that rained down from above. The grass and trees on the mountain ridge instantly caught fire.

  Lu Jianfeng's face turned pale, his heart still racing with fear. He looked up to see a black figure rapidly retreating into the distance, a fierce glint flashing across its face as it escaped. It was clear that if Lu hadn't reacted quickly, he would have fallen prey to a sneak attack.

  Fury burning in his chest, Lu Jianfeng stood up and let out a loud curse. Like a mad hunting leopard, he chased after Xiao Yun, his face twisted with an expression that seemed to want to devour people whole.

  ——

  "You scoundrel, you really are a sticky plaster, did you think I had no way of dealing with you?"

  Also don't know how long they ran, Xiao Yun's energy was exhausted, and his speed slowed down. No matter how hard he tried to shake him off, Lu Jianfeng couldn't be shaken off. While running, Xiao Yun turned around and shouted at Lu Jianfeng who was closely following behind him.

  "Hmph, you should be clear that today is either your death or mine, obediently accept your fate!" Lu Jianfeng suddenly accelerated closer to Xiao Yun by a few steps, directly casting the 5th rank battle melody "Liver and Intestines Severed", transforming into dozens of sword shadows that shot towards Xiao Yun.

  Xiao Yun hastily descended and landed on the grassy ground in a small valley, quickly dodging the fierce attack.

  Only three fifth-order war talismans were left, and among them, only two were usable. Xiao Yun was secretly worried that using one would mean losing one. With Lu Jianfeng's cunning, the fifth-order war talisman would be hard-pressed to harm him. The only viable option was a sixth-order war talisman, but there was only one of those, and it was his last resort. Unless absolutely necessary, Xiao Yun would never use it.

  "Die!"

  However, just as Xiao Yun was dodging the sword energy with difficulty and hesitating whether to use the sixth-order battle symbol "Taishan Tune", Lu Jianfeng had already caught up, scattering out three fourth-order music symbols.

  Three dazzling rays of light flew towards Xiao Yun's head in a triangular formation, these three four-stage musical notes were Lu Jian Feng's only means of survival, and to smoothly behead Xiao Yun, he would spare no expense.
