Volume 5: Return to Donghua Chapter 14: The Sword Master's Trail
Ye Feng was killed by Qi Ji's Suzaku move, and his body fell in front of Qi Ji. Without the protection of the extraordinary factor, his body was broken into pieces.
Qi Ji lifted the explosive state and found a bunch of keys among Ye Feng's smashed corpse.
He quickly returned to the hole he had just broken and jumped down. Of course, before entering, he found the white mask that had been squeezed off by the Berserker Armor and put it on his face.
As soon as he jumped down from the cave entrance to the dungeon, he saw a large number of guards wearing white masks rushing in from the passage with weapons in hand.
The massive battle between Qi Ji and Ye Feng just now immediately alerted the guards, and they all rushed towards the most important cell where Jiange was imprisoned.
Among them, there are at least three leading third-level masters and nearly ten second-level masters.
Seeing this, Qi Ji took a deep breath, and a large amount of strange mist appeared on his body surface.
Kasumi's Breathing: Halo!
In the midst of shadows, Qi Ji passed by all the guards at a speed so ethereal that it was difficult to see clearly.
Dozens of heads flew up at once, and headless bodies fell down.
[Kill extraordinary creatures (level 3), gain 100 points of transcendence]
…
The panel rewards for killing three enemies in a row appeared. Now, he no longer received transcendence points for killing those second-level transcendents, and the transcendence points given by third-level enemies were also reduced to 100 points.
After dealing with all the guards, Qi Ji turned and walked into the cell where the members of Jiange were held.
When all the imprisoned members of the Jiange Sect saw Qi Ji coming back, they immediately thought that he had won.
The victory was so quick!
In their opinion, only top-level fourth-level masters like Yu Chengen or Gu Chongan can have such an overwhelming advantage over other ordinary fourth-level masters.
They didn't even dare to think that Ye Feng had been killed by Qi Ji, they just thought that Ye Feng had been chased away.
When did our Jiange produce another master who is comparable to Sword Lord Yu Chengen?
An old man came forward, looked at Qi Ji who was busy unlocking the door, and asked in a dignified manner: "I am Xiang Wenkui, a fourth-level elder of Jian Pavilion. I wonder who you are, senior. Thank you for saving my life."
As one of the backbone forces of Jiange's upper echelons, Xiang Wenkui was of course well aware of the situation of all the top masters above level four in Jiange. Naturally, he was also very clear that Qi Ji, who was wearing a mask in front of him, was not any of the Jiange masters he knew.
In order to avoid trouble, Qi Ji did not intend to reveal his identity before meeting the Sword Pavilion Master. He changed his voice and said in a deep voice: "I am entrusted by your Pavilion Master to help with the rescue . You don't need to know my identity. Now, what else do you need me to do?"
As he spoke, he had already unlocked the doors of all the cages, and hundreds of Jiange disciples who were crowded together in the venue came out one after another with joyful looks on their faces.
Xiang Wenkui looked embarrassed and said softly, "We were all forced to take the strange poison from the Xuan family master. Now our hands and feet are sore and weak, and it is difficult for us to sense the Qi. We don't know if there are other poisons."
Qi Ji pondered for a moment and said, "According to my investigation, the Xuan family probably wants to use you for some kind of experiment. They probably won't really give you poison that will damage your body. Please wait here for a moment. I'll go look for it."
Qi Ji turned around and walked out of the hall and cell. His nose moved slightly, and with his keen sense of smell combined with his perception of the external demonic energy, he quickly found a room.
This is most likely where Ye Feng rests.
He was too lazy to look for any spoils, but quickly found a pile of bottles and jars placed together.
He picked them up one by one, and relying on the annotation function of the items beyond the panel, he quickly found two large jars of pills.
[Forbidden Qi Poison: After taking it, the whole body will feel sore, the hands and feet will be weak, and the ability to sense the extraordinary factors inside and outside the body will be lost.]
[Shunqi Pills: Normal use can regulate breathing and qi, and at the same time can eliminate the toxicity of forbidden qi poison]
Okay, that's probably it.
He quickly turned back and handed the Shunqi Pill to Xiang Wenkui, saying, "This should be the antidote. Elder Xiang, please arrange for its distribution."
Xiang Wenkui looked delighted and waved to Su Jingqiu to come over. He took out an antidote and swallowed it, then handed the jar to her and told her to ask people to pick it up in order.
Su Jingqiu took the jar of antidote, looked at Qi Ji with a puzzled expression, then turned around and left to greet the disciples.
This girl... won’t she find out my identity?
Qi Ji knew very well that women always had a particularly sensitive way of perceiving familiar people, and it was very likely that Su Jingqiu had discovered his true identity from his body shape and certain behavioral characteristics.
However, as long as she didn't point it out, Qi Ji was happy to have some free time.
He looked at Elder Xiang Wenkui, who was already sitting cross-legged on the ground and regulating his breathing, and said in a loud voice that everyone could hear: "Hurry up and dissolve the drug. I will protect you for the time being. We will leave as soon as you recover your ability to move."
The disciples of Jiange all said yes. Seeing that they had all started to get into the state, Qi Ji immediately inspected the entire prison while there was still time. This time he was too lazy to look for the key to unlock the prison. Whenever he saw a prison cell, he would chop the lock of the door open with a knife.
Soon, all the prisoners in the cells in the prison were released.
There are almost no extraordinary warriors among these warriors, so they are not forced to take poison like the people in Jiange.
After Qi Ji released everyone, he returned to the place where the disciples of Jiange were regulating their breathing, and shouted into the passage: "Those who have escaped, all the guards here have been killed, you can leave now, everyone please pay attention to your own safety and take care of yourself!"
Not long after, Xiang Wenkui, the elder of Jiange, was the first to stand up. His complexion was countless times better than before, and a powerful and extraordinary aura emanated from him unconsciously.
This elder is actually a top-level fourth-level expert. Judging from his aura, he is almost the same as a top-level fourth-level expert like Yu Chengen.
His expression regained its composure, and he came to Qi Ji and asked with a smile: "Senior, what are our plans for the future?"
Qi Ji glanced at him and said in a muffled voice: "In order to rush here urgently, I don't have too many arrangements here. Elder Xiang is very powerful. We can search for some supplies in this manor, and then we can take everyone away as soon as possible and wait for the support of the subsequent Jiange army. There should be no problem, right?"
Xiang Wenkui thought for a moment and nodded: "Although I have not yet recovered my full strength, I have a master like you to escort me. As long as I am not besieged by five top-level fourth-level opponents like that day, it should not be a problem for me to leave the Western Desert safely."
Qi Ji nodded and asked what he had been worried about: "Elder Xiang, do you know where your walker Qin Zijin is? I have been entrusted by someone to protect her."
Xiang Wenkui was stunned for a moment, then frowned and thought for a while, then said, "The battle situation was urgent that day, and I didn't notice whether the little girl Zijin escaped, but I did not see her along the way."
Su Jingqiu, who was standing next to him, suddenly interrupted and said, "Qin Zijin is safe. I saw her discard the Sword Pavilion Talisman. She must have returned to Earth at the last minute."
As she said this, she looked into Qi Ji's eyes with bright eyes.
Qi Ji immediately looked at her and asked in surprise: "Did she escape successfully?"
Su Jingqiu was now almost 100% sure that the expert in front of her was Qi Ji. She smiled and said, "She and I were surrounded at the same time. I am sure, 'Senior', you can let the friend who asked you for help rest assured."
Qi Ji breathed a sigh of relief. He nodded to Su Jingqiu knowingly, then remembered something and turned to look at Xiang Wenkui: "Elder Xiang, have you heard about Elder Yu Chengen's situation?"
Xiang Wenkui's face fell, and he said bitterly: "Originally, I was going back to Jiange to organize a team with another elder to come to the Western Region to look for Elder Yu's trace. I didn't expect to be ambushed before I set out. The other life master elder was also surrounded and killed by the enemy because he majored in healing..."
He then shook his head and said, "I really don't know what the situation is with Elder Yu now."
Qi Ji's face was solemn. He remembered what the Ghost-Faced Gentleman said before he died, and he had a very bad feeling in his heart.
