"Li Shang Sword Venerable is still alive!"
Dugu Feng said indifferently, "Otherwise, why would I bring her here? A re restriction of a residence, do you think I truly cannot break it?"
"!!!"
As these words were uttered, not only Wang Junze, even Jiao Yang's face showed a hint of shock, looking at Dugu Feng in disbelief. Obviously, even Jiao Yang did not know this news beforehand.
Wait a mont, Dugu Feng even kept Jiao Yang in the dark, so how did Ji Liuyun know?
In an instant, Wang Junze's gaze fell onto that sword.
Did Li Shang Sword Venerable leave a ssage on this sword?
"Clang!"
Almost at the sa ti, Ji Liuyun suddenly picked up the sword from the ground and slashed it towards his own neck.
Unfortunately, Dugu Feng's reaction was quicker. His figure flickered, and he kicked Ji Liuyun away, not only sending the sword flying but also fiercely stepping on Ji Liuyun.
"I told you, in my presence, you are not even qualified to die!"
With a slight flick of his fingertips, several silver threads flew out, once again binding Ji Liuyun's hands and feet.
"Ye Piaoling, haven't you always wanted her? I'm giving her to you now. Don't let her die. Do as you please with everything else."
Glancing at Wang Junze, Dugu Feng spoke again.
"Thank you, my lord!"
Wang Junze felt a wave of bitterness in his heart, but now, in front of Dugu Feng, he dared not hesitate in the slightest, and imdiately bowed to express his gratitude.
Lifting his foot, Dugu Feng retreated a few steps, making space for Wang Junze, with a cold smile on his lips.
But now, it was Wang Junze's turn to be troubled.
He certainly understood Dugu Feng's intention, which was to humiliate Ji Liuyun, but... he couldn't really do that, could he?
"Young master!"
Just as Wang Junze was feeling troubled, unclear about what to do, Peng Ru suddenly knelt down, biting her lip tightly and said, "Lord Dugu, I am also a disciple of the Profound Moon Sword Sect. I will refine this sword. I beg you to spare my master!"
"Oh?"
In an instant, everyone's gaze fell on Peng Ru.
"Lord Dugu, as long as you spare my master, I am willing to do anything!"
Raising her head, Peng Ru resolutely repeated.
"Ru'er, don't worry about . Even if we die, we cannot commit acts of betrayal against the sect!"
Hearing Peng Ru's words, Ji Liuyun imdiately interrupted.
"Master, this ti... I cannot listen to you!"
Her eyes turned red, tears streaming down her cheeks, but Peng Ru kowtowed three tis to Ji Liuyun, ultimately refusing, "I have never been to the Profound Moon Sword Sect and have no feelings for the sect. To , my master, fellow disciples, and the young master are the most important people, and for them, I can do anything!"
"..."
Listening to Peng Ru's words, Ji Liuyun was speechless.
Indeed, Peng Ru was her disciple, but because she had been traveling outside for years and had not returned to the sect, naturally, Peng Ru could not have much loyalty to the sect.
She herself could choose to die rather than submit, but she could not demand the sa of Peng Ru, especially since Peng Ru was doing this to save her.
She certainly could say she would rather die, but in this situation, since Dugu Feng brought Peng Ru, it ant he was already prepared to use Peng Ru as a backup. Even if she died, Dugu Feng would not spare Peng Ru.
At this mont, Ji Liuyun's heart was filled with despair!
"Alright, I agree!"
With a light smile, Dugu Feng spoke again, "As long as you can refine this sword and do as I command, I will spare her and even grant you a fortune."
"Yes!"
Without any hesitation, Peng Ru agreed imdiately, stood up from the ground, picked up the sword from the side, and walked to Dugu Feng's side.
"Your strength is lacking, but... it's not without a chance. I will teach you a technique. You just need to refine it accordingly."
Nodding, Dugu Feng took a step forward and pointed a finger at Peng Ru's forehead.
Transmission!
Dugu Feng himself was already a Path-Entering powerhouse, so this kind of transmission was naturally nothing significant.
Monts later, Dugu Feng withdrew his finger.
After waiting a while, Peng Ru finally opened her eyes, unsheathed the treasure sword, cut open her palm, and covered the sword with her blood. The next mont, a moon-white sword radiance suddenly burst forth, pouring into Peng Ru's body.
Instantly, Peng Ru's face showed a hint of pain, but she still bit her teeth hard, allowing the blood from her palm to continuously fall onto the sword edge.
After watching for a while, Wang Junze understood that the technique Dugu Feng taught Peng Ru was the thod to refine a Lifebound Divine Weapon. Setting aside other concerns, if successfully completed, it would indeed be a good thing for Peng Ru, just that Peng Ru's cultivation was ultimately too weak, and it was uncertain whether she could withstand the weapon's power. If she failed, she would likely not escape death.
Sighing silently in his heart, Wang Junze's gaze involuntarily returned to Ji Liuyun.
Compared to Peng Ru, Ji Liuyun was actually the better choice. If this woman weren't so foolish, refining the divine weapon would definitely cause her strength to soar once more.
No matter what Dugu Feng intended to do, it certainly wouldn't be so easy.
If Li Shang Sword Venerable were truly still alive, then when Dugu Feng went to kill Li Shang Sword Venerable, it would undoubtedly be the best chance to find an opportunity to counterattack.
Still too impatient!
However, to be fair, it couldn't entirely be blad on Ji Liuyun, because Ji Liuyun didn't know her own identity, so she couldn't think that much. Most likely, she learned so information from the sword left by Li Shang Sword Venerable and chose to fight desperately.
Pressing this thought down in his mind, taking advantage of Peng Ru still refining the divine weapon, Wang Junze turned again to Dugu Feng and probed, "My lord, are we really going to deal with Li Shang Sword Venerable? That is a true Saint Realm powerhouse!"
"Indeed!"
Nodding, Dugu Feng replied softly, "However, you can rest assured, although Qu Lishang is still alive, he is no better than a dead person; he only has one breath left. Since I dared to co, naturally I have the confidence to kill him!"
In fact, even without Dugu Feng saying it, Wang Junze could guess that the current state of Li Shang Sword Venerable must be extrely poor, otherwise, he wouldn't have remained hidden all these years, concealing himself within this secluded Inverted Mountain.
However, since Dugu Feng knew this information yet still dared not act before, it indicated that truly killing Li Shang Sword Venerable would not be so simple.
Thinking of this, Wang Junze probed again, "What's really going on, my lord? Could you elaborate a bit more? It's not that I'm being nosy, it's just... Li Shang Sword Venerable's reputation is too great, I'm inevitably a little scared."
Not only Wang Junze, even Jiao Yang's eyes were full of unease, unconsciously looking towards Dugu Feng.
