Martial Master

“What's wrong, are you unwilling?” Qin Chen narrowed his eyes and looked over, his voice cold as a terrible killing intent erupted from his body, locking onto Lu Zian from all directions. Clearly, as long as Lu Zian made any abnormal movement, he would be slain.

Lu Zian understood the reason behind Qin Chen's actions. As long as he killed Wei Ziyang, then everyone would truly be on the same boat. At that point, he would have leverage in the hands of the other party, making it impossible for him to be betrayed.

“What a despicable tactic.” Lu Zian felt incredibly frustrated. There were still Rao Yuange and Pu Xingchang present; why was he the one chosen? Bitter in heart, but not daring to show any hesitation on his face, he felt completely intimidated by Qin Chen's previous display of strength. He could guarantee that if he dared to resist, his fate would be even more tragic than the previous Feng Kangan.

Moreover, the passage of the spatial seal had already opened. Following Qin Chen, he might have the chance to enjoy good fortune. How to decide? Lu Zian was a smart person, and naturally would not make a mistake.

“Brother Chen is joking, how could I, Lu, be unwilling? This Wei Ziyang is a wolf in sheep's clothing. He pretended to obey Brother Chen before, but when an opportunity arose, he rebelled against you. He deserves to die. The kind of two-faced person is what I despise the most.” Lu Zian said while turning to approach Wei Ziyang, a wave of killing intent radiating from him.

“No, don’t kill me! Brother Lu, Brother Chen, give me another chance!” Wei Ziyang cried out in terror, filled with regret. If he had known today’s outcome, he would never have betrayed Qin Chen, but it was too late.

Pff!

A flash of black light passed, and Wei Ziyang's throat was instantly cut open, blood spraying out as he fell dead in an instant.

“Brother Chen, how is it?” Lu Zian turned around and said generously, then wiped his ring blade and looked at Wei Ziyang with disgust, spitting, “Bah, traitor!”

“Indeed, you've passed my test.” Qin Chen smiled, retracting his killing intent.

Lu Zian finally breathed a sigh of relief. He was truly afraid that Qin Chen would act against him. “Brother Chen, should we enter this spatial seal now?” His gaze was eagerly fixed on the passage ahead, his eyes shining with excitement.

“Not so fast. You all wait a moment; I’ll refine this Ban Yue Ancient Sword first. Once the passage opens, it won’t disappear in a short time, so there’s no need to rush,” Qin Chen said while starting to refine the Ban Yue Ancient Sword.

The mysterious rusted sword and the Heavenly Thunder Sword could not be used due to their propensity to expose him, resulting in a significant reduction in Qin Chen's strength. However, once he refined the Ban Yue Ancient Sword, his power would increase dramatically.

Therefore, Qin Chen immediately began refining the Ban Yue Ancient Sword by his side. The sword danced continuously in Qin Chen's hand, its sword energy slicing through the air, trying to break free from Qin Chen's grasp. But Qin Chen was unafraid; his mastery of the sword path was even stronger than Feng Kangan. How could an ancient imperial weapon that had lost its master escape from his palm?

The true essence of the Nine Star Divine Emperor Art seeped into the Ban Yue Ancient Sword, firmly suppressing it as it was continuously refined. Lu Zian didn't know that Qin Chen's refining speed would be very fast. Hearing this, he couldn't help but feel anxious. This Ban Yue Ancient Sword was the treasure of the Ancient Sword Manor, refined by Feng Kangan for who knows how long. The ancient sword had spirit; it probably contained restrictions left inside, so how long would it take for Qin Chen to finish refining? However, he didn’t dare to oppose Qin Chen and could only obediently stand aside, waiting for him to finish refining.

“Lu Zian, you actually didn’t team up with Feng Kangan just now?” Seeing Lu Zian come over, Rao Yuange chuckled lightly.
