Film and Television: The Great Feng Sword Immortal, starting with Lingyue's updo hairstyle

"I have never intended to harm anyone. Our kind simply prefers to inhabit the human world."

Fu Xiang explained in a soft, gentle voice.

Chapter 155 Dual Cultivation Secret Technique, The Tragedy of Draining the Pond to Harvest the Fish

Fu Xiang knew that Su Nan could see through her extraordinary identity, and by the same token, he would surely be able to see through Xiao Yuenu's true nature. Since Su Nan could accept Xue Ji's existence, why would he reveal his hidden secrets for no reason?

"I am already yours, please do not report me."

Fu Xiang chuckled, gently biting her full red lips. After promising Su Nan a permanent free service, she gave him a captivating wink that could charm the entire "537" community.

Su Nan held Fu Xiang's hand tightly and slowly pushed her away. "Beauty is like a blade that cuts to the bone. How can your little tricks shake my rock-solid will?"

Fu Xiang's emotional index is as high as 60. Such a high level of favorability at such a first meeting is probably due to her appearance, or perhaps Xiao Yuenü had something to say to her.

"boom!"

A crisp sound came from inside the house, followed by a powerful burst of energy. Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou immediately leaped out from the roof.

It seems that the thief's cultivation level was quite high.

Immediately afterward, Fu Xiang's vision blurred, and Su Nan's figure vanished without a trace.

Fu Xiang, a fourth-rank demon, was shocked to realize that Su Nan's movement technique was exceptionally fast, far surpassing that of ordinary martial artists. If Su Nan truly possessed such formidable strength, she knew she was no match for him.

"Fortunately, I have no intention of antagonizing Su Zhexian. This body is bright and beautiful, no less so than my original appearance. Being able to serve Su Zhexian with this body is indeed a great advantage for him."

"Hmph, so what if you're made of steel and iron? I'll use my skills to make you crumble and your soul dissipate, leaving you unable to resist."

The fragrance of peaches filled the air, and her face flushed slightly. She began to ponder in her mind that Su Nan would have no chance of detecting her profound possession technique.

Yoruhime originally intended to gather intelligence under the guise of Kui, so she did indeed plan to assume the position of Kui by impersonating Fuka.

Su Nan lightly stepped onto the roof tiles and caught up with Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou in a few steps, while the other two Jinluo were slightly unsteady on their feet due to their minor injuries and their pace was relatively slow.

Yang Yan:

"The thief's gathering is like a Taoist sect."

As Yang Yan ran, he spoke hurriedly, “This is a Taoist dual cultivation technique. It seems that his cultivation method went wrong, which forced him to commit a crime in the capital.”

The reason for this is self-evident: this person possesses a powerful dual cultivation technique, but if the other party's cultivation is shallow, they will inevitably suffer the tragedy of having their essence and blood depleted.

Nangong Qianrou said:

"This thief's agility and skill are extraordinary; for a time, it was difficult to catch up with him."

All four were fourth-rank experts. In just a quarter of an hour, they arrived at the outskirts of the city. Seeing that the surrounding houses were becoming increasingly sparse, the thief was extremely anxious.

"My esteemed lords, I have committed a grave error due to the loss of control over my cultivation technique, and I deeply regret it. I promise that I will never commit any illegal acts in the capital again. I will leave tonight and never return."

I humbly request that you three be magnanimous and grant me a chance to reform myself.

Thieves like this always say when they can't escape, and Yang Yan is fed up with it. "Stop talking nonsense and let's settle this once and for all!"

Su Nan gripped Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou's shoulders tightly, and then instantly activated the Xingzi Secret Technique. The three of them moved like phantoms, approaching the thief at an astonishing speed.

During his three months in southern Jiangsu, he had initially mastered the "Xing" secret of the Nine Secrets, and his movement skills had also improved significantly.

Chapter 156 The Golden Shield, a Defensive Magic Artifact

Yang Yan was overjoyed. The spear in his hand shot out a burst of light. The thief was terrified and threw a punch. The two of them fell from the sky and crashed heavily to the ground.

The thief regained his footing, allowing Su Nanfang to clearly see the man's face. He had snow-white skin and an elegant demeanor.

Such an honor would likely mean that no coercion would be needed during the crime, and no one would notice unless the woman's life was taken.

"Watchman, why are you forcing me?"

Although his skin was fair, his expression suddenly turned ferocious, revealing a sense of helplessness in the face of being forced to fight.

A hint of sarcasm flashed across Nangong Qianrou's gentle face. "You wretched child, are you pretending to be pitiful?"

He snatched a jade pendant from the thief, angrily crushed it to pieces, and said in a heavy tone:

"This technique has gone wrong. I didn't want to do it this way, but I had no other choice."

It can only be said that these women were too physically weak; whether they were ladies from noble families or courtesans, none could withstand it.

"Oh no, he's calling for reinforcements!"

Yang Yan's expression changed drastically. It was obvious that his act of crushing the jade pendant was merely a scheme to seek support by borrowing the power of the Daoist sect.

As soon as he finished speaking, a flash of green light appeared beside his ear, and Su Nan's flying sword immediately shot out.

In the pitch-black night, a dazzling green light instantly pierced the sky, shooting straight into the thief's eyes. With a clang, it collided violently with a golden shield, and the magical artifacts burst forth with dazzling light upon contact.

"This is a magical artifact! It is clearly a Taoist item. Does it belong to the Human Sect or the Earth Sect?"

Yang Yan brandished his spear like a coiling dragon, launching a fierce attack in an instant, while simultaneously uttering a sharp interrogation.

Su Nan narrowed his eyes, not expecting that the other party would carry a defensive magic artifact with him.

If he was right, this person should be a disciple of the Earth Sect of Taoism. Recently, it seems that quite a few fellow disciples of the Earth Sect have encountered problems with their cultivation techniques.

In the blink of an eye, Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou came up side by side. The two of them descended the mountain like tigers, engaging in close combat, which made the thieves busy trying to cope, dodging left and right, unable to defend themselves.

"Master, help me!"

The thieves, besieged, let out a mournful cry.

Just then, a thick, inky cloud surged rapidly from afar, within which a powerful Taoist force faintly emanated.

“You followers of Wei Qingyi dare to meddle in other people’s business; this is going too far.”

Yang Yan's gaze inadvertently fell upon the rapidly approaching dark clouds, and his heartstrings tightened instantly, for the aura contained within those clouds had at least reached the third rank of the Daoist realm.

"How can the night watchman, who is in charge of enforcing the curfew, tolerate injustices in the world! The so-called merits you cultivate are nothing but cunning tricks from the underworld!"

As the old man in a Taoist robe emerged from the dark clouds, Yang Yan also confirmed the true identities of these two people from 537.

Su Nan saw through the Taoist's true nature; his face was covered with black veins that bulged like a spider web, his eyes were blood red, and his body was filled with a thick demonic aura.

"Hmph! You guard dogs, I intended to show you the face of the Celestial Venerable Morality today!"

With a sharp whistle from the old man, a dark cloud suddenly rushed towards Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou.

"boom!"

A sharp sword aura shot out, transforming into a dazzling silver light in the night sky, like a torrential downpour, piercing straight into the old man's thick, inky clouds.

With a soft sound, the old man's arm was cleanly severed, and blood splattered everywhere.

Chapter 157 Heavenly Thunder Rages, Two Purple-Black Lotus Magic Treasures

"This is the sword energy of a third-grade martial artist! Are you Su Nan? Xu Gu was defeated by you."

The old man, his face filled with shock, roared.

Recently, Su Nan has not only been carefully nurturing Huai Qing and meticulously crafting Lin An, but has also gained new insights into martial arts cultivation... mastering the essence of the dripping water sword.

Now, his martial arts cultivation has successfully reached the fourth rank of "Intent" realm.

With Confucianism at the fourth rank, martial arts at the fourth rank, and Taoism at the fifth rank, such strength is already comparable to that of a third-rank cultivator.

As Su Nan swung his sword, the sword energy surged like a rainbow, easily severing his opponent's arm. All of this was because the old man had underestimated Su Nan, never expecting that the sword intent within him was so strong.

The injured old man paid no attention to this, and his body fell to the ground, immediately emitting a terrifying aura.

Rings of black mist rippled like waves, stirring up dust and grass clippings from the ground, forming an array that emitted a black spiritual light.

At that very moment, everyone was bound by an inverted glass bowl, clearly a powerful Taoist formation.

"Evil heresy!"

Yang Yan roared and swiftly swung his spear, creating a streak of light that instantly dispelled the surrounding black mist.

However, these black mists seemed to possess a life force, rapidly condensing and gathering.

The old man's lips curled into a sinister smile. "This is my Hundred Ghosts Formation. It is easy to enter but difficult to leave. Even if you are a third-rank martial artist, you will not escape the fate of exhausting your vital energy within it."

The fourth-rank sorcerers in the Imperial Observatory specialize in array formations. Their array formations, which incorporate the power of heaven and earth, are enduring and unbreakable.

However, the Taoist formations are meticulously arranged by human hands. Once the Taoist spiritual energy is exhausted, the formation will become ineffective. These two types of formations are actually quite different.

Among various cultivation methods, Taoism is particularly proficient in the cultivation of the primordial spirit. Its sixth-grade Yin spirit can capture people's souls and control the life and death of mortals when night falls.

The Hundred Ghosts Formation is similar to this method.

However, the elder's skills went far beyond that. Suddenly, dozens of blood-red lightning bolts descended from the pitch-black formation. The scarlet lightning, flashing with a chilling crimson light, tore through the dark night.

Within the Daoist sect, those at the eighth rank can already control magical artifacts and summon the power of heavenly lightning. As their rank increases, the types of heavenly lightning they summon become increasingly rare, and their power becomes increasingly formidable.

Amidst the raging thunder, two purplish-black lotus-shaped magical artifacts, hidden within, suddenly attacked Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou.

"Hmph! A little trick!"

Yang Yan skillfully dodged Zi Lian's two attacks, then brandished his spear. The silver tip of the spear flashed like a shooting star streaking across the night sky, instantly merging with Yang Yan and releasing a surging aura!

At the same time, Nangong Qianrou brandished her golden longsword, the blade flashing like a ribbon, slicing through the sky. The two surging energies instantly condensed and merged into one!

Su Nan displayed his sword intent, while Yang Yan and (Li Hao Zhao) Nangong Qianrou each displayed their spear and knife intents.

A deafening roar caused the entire formation to shake violently, but it was not destroyed.

The elderly man, holding his thieving disciples, attempted to flee the area.

"Purple Lotus gets within ten feet!"

Su Nan casually uttered a sentence, and the old man's expression changed drastically instantly.

It turned out that Su Nan had already figured out his true identity... the junior brother of the Golden Lotus Daoist Master of the Earth Sect, the Purple Lotus Daoist.

Chapter 158 The righteous are one foot high, the evil are ten feet high!

Surprised, Su Nan immediately mobilized the Daoist energy to resist the impending challenge.

However, the Confucian principle of "words becoming law" is actually a technique for changing the rules. This principle can be used three times against opponents of the same level; however, the number of times it can be used against enemies of a higher level will be reduced accordingly.

Su Nan gathered his righteous energy and forcefully suppressed the backlash that suddenly surged within him. He then used his right hand to condense his energy, and a phantom of a golden bell fell from the sky, firmly enveloping the approaching Purple Lotus Taoist and his disciple.

With a deafening roar, the Prajna Heart Bell instantly and completely destroyed the so-called Hundred Ghosts Formation!

"Buddhist techniques!"

Yang Yan and Nangong Qianrou had just broken free from the formation's restraints when they both exclaimed in surprise.

37 "Indeed, he is a leading figure in the Confucian school, capable of cultivating multiple systems of techniques, and the power of these techniques is truly astonishing!"
