Although she hated Zhao Fu for framing her, witnessing such a scene of betrayal and fratricide still made her heart pound.
"Judging from how close they were, their relationship must have been quite special. I never expected it to end like this. The cultivation world is indeed a place where people's hearts are unpredictable."
She remained silent for a moment, then walked to Zhao Fu's body and gently closed her wide-open eyes.
"Although we were enemies, we must respect the dead. Rest in peace. I will reward you."
After doing all this, Su Chun flicked her finger, and a faint flame flew out and landed on Zhao Fu.
The flames spread rapidly, and soon the body was completely burned away, leaving only a handful of ashes.
Su Chun stood up, turned her gaze to the direction where Senior Brother Sun had disappeared, and her eyes became extremely cold.
"Dealing with two people would have been a bit troublesome, but now it's saved me a lot of trouble."
A cold smile curved her lips.
"Speaking of which, shouldn't I thank this Senior Brother Sun?"
Without the slightest hesitation, she unfolded her form, transforming into a slender red shadow, and chased after Senior Brother Sun in the direction he had fled.
Senior Brother Sun was clearly very familiar with the terrain of Tianyao Ridge. He deliberately chose secluded and hidden paths to fly at a very fast speed, obviously wanting to leave this dangerous place as soon as possible.
He was extremely happy, planning how to use these resources to break through to the late Foundation Establishment stage and even the future Core Formation stage after returning to his sect.
However, just as he was about to fly out of a foggy area, a strong sense of crisis suddenly came from behind him.
"not good."
Without a second thought, Senior Brother Sun suddenly summoned a mid-grade defensive magic weapon shaped like a tortoise shell and placed it behind him.
"clang!"
A deafening clang of metal clashing rang out, sparks flying everywhere.
A blazing red sword light, like a startled swan from the heavens, instantly pierced through the mist and struck the tortoise-shell artifact with pinpoint accuracy.
The defensive artifact shook violently, its spiritual light dimmed, and it was shattered by the violent power contained in this attack. The remaining impact force passed through the artifact and slammed hard into Senior Brother Sun's back.
"Wow!"
Senior Brother Sun screamed as if struck by a heavy hammer, spitting out blood. He fell straight down from mid-air like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily to the ground and kicking up a cloud of dust.
He struggled to his feet, ignoring the blood at the corner of his mouth, and in a fit of shock and rage, drew his sword, looked up at the sky, and roared.
"Who? Who attacked me?"
The next moment, a slender figure slowly descended from the sky; it was Su Chun who had been chasing after them.
Holding the Xuan Yan Sword, she looked coldly at her disheveled senior brother, Sun.
"Senior Brother Sun, how have you been?"
Su Chun's voice was as cold as ice, carrying a chilling killing intent.
"It's you?"
Senior Brother Sun's pupils contracted, his face filled with resentment and regret.
"You didn't expect to see each other again so soon, did you?"
When Senior Brother Sun saw Su Chun suddenly appear, his face instantly turned extremely ugly.
He never imagined that this junior sister from Hidden Sword Peak, whom he had previously considered insignificant, would not have been killed by the demonic ape, but would instead appear here, seemingly unharmed.
"Junior Sister Su, what are you doing here?"
Senior Brother Sun suppressed his shock and panic, gripped the Qingfeng sword tightly, and stared warily at Su Chun.
He is currently severely injured and his magical power is greatly depleted. Facing Su Chun, who is in perfect condition, he has no chance of winning.
Su Chun sneered and glanced coldly at Senior Brother Sun.
“Senior Brother Sun, I saw everything you did to Senior Sister Zhao just now. I never imagined that your relationship was so cheap.”
Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Sun's expression changed, and he thought to himself, "I was actually being followed by Su Chun."
But if that's the case, even if Su Chun doesn't kill him, he still has to kill Su Chun.
"Junior sister, this is the cruelty of the cultivation world. To survive and become stronger, you must give up some things. Now that you have seen it, you should not be here."
"Oh? So you think you can beat me in your current state?"
Su Chun slightly raised the Xuan Yan Sword in her hand, and the sword emitted a scorching aura.
Senior Brother Sun's heart sank, knowing that a battle was inevitable today.
He took a deep breath and forcibly circulated the remaining magical power in his body, causing a fierce sword aura to erupt from the cyan sword.
“Junior Sister Su, out of consideration for our shared sect, I advise you not to meddle in other people’s business. I killed Junior Sister Zhao, it has nothing to do with you. If you leave now, I can pretend nothing happened.”
Su Chun laughed; she knew perfectly well that the other party was bluffing.
"Heh! Only now do you remember the bond between fellow disciples? Too late."
A cold glint flashed in Su Chun's eyes.
"You first plotted against us, then killed Senior Sister Zhao. You should have expected this day to come."
Before he finished speaking, Su Chun moved, using the Lingxu Step to its fullest extent, transforming into a blurry afterimage and instantly appearing in front of Senior Brother Sun.
The Xuan Yan Sword, wreathed in scorching flames, pierced straight towards Senior Brother Sun's chest.
Senior Brother Sun's expression changed drastically; he hadn't expected Su Chun to be so fast. Without a second thought, he quickly raised his sword to parry.
"clang!"
The two swords clashed heavily together, producing a piercing metallic clang.
Senior Brother Sun felt a tremendous force coming from the sword, and his tiger's mouth was instantly shattered, with blood flowing freely.
He was so shaken that he staggered backward, leaving two deep furrows in the ground beneath his feet.
"How is this possible? How can your strength be so great?" Senior Brother Sun's face was full of disbelief.
He is a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator. Even if he only has half of his combat power left, his strength should not be suppressed by a mid-Foundation Establishment cultivator.
Su Chun didn't give him much time to think. Her figure flashed again, and the Xuan Yan Sword attacked Senior Brother Sun like a storm.
His swordplay was incredibly fierce, with each move aimed directly at vital points.
Senior Brother Sun was forced to retreat repeatedly by Su Chun's offensive, leaving him in a sorry state.
He was both shocked and furious.
"Junior Sister Su, do you really think I'm afraid of you?"
Senior Brother Sun roared, a fierce glint in his eyes. He bit his tongue hard, spitting out a mouthful of blood essence, and the sword energy on his sword surged instantly.
"Azure Sky Sword Technique - Wind Breaker"
Senior Brother Sun exerted all his strength and unleashed his ultimate move.
A highly refined cyan sword aura, carrying an indomitable momentum, slashed towards Su Chun.
Su Chun's eyes narrowed, and she dared not be careless.
She could feel the terrifying power contained in the sword energy. She took a deep breath, and flames rose from the Xuan Yan Sword.
"Fire Dance Sword Technique - Phoenix Flames Burning the Heavens!"
A huge phantom of a fiery phoenix appeared behind Su Chun, letting out a loud phoenix cry, and then, with a scorching aura, it rushed towards the cyan sword energy.
"boom!""
The fiery phoenix and the azure sword energy collided violently in mid-air, unleashing a terrifying energy shockwave.
The surrounding trees were instantly reduced to ashes, and a huge crater was blasted into the ground.
Su Chun and Senior Brother Sun were both forced to retreat by the shockwave.
Su Chun was alright; she just experienced a slight turmoil in her blood and qi.
Senior Brother Sun was already seriously injured, and this only made things worse. He spat out another mouthful of blood, and his face turned ashen.
"puff!"
Senior Brother Sun swayed and almost fell to the ground.
He looked at Su Chun, his eyes filled with fear and despair. He knew that he was no match for Su Chun anymore.
"Junior Sister Su, spare my life! I was wrong. I shouldn't have killed Junior Sister Zhao. I shouldn't have been greedy. Please spare my life. I'm willing to give you all my treasures."
Senior Brother Sun hurriedly put down his sword and actually knelt down to beg for mercy from Su Chun.
Su Chun coldly looked at Senior Brother Sun, who was kneeling and begging for mercy, without the slightest pity in her eyes.
In the world of cultivation, being merciful to your enemies is being cruel to yourself.
Moreover, she saw a hint of malice in this guy's eyes.
"You only realize you were wrong now? Too late."
Su Chun swung the Xuan Yan Sword in his hand, and a blazing sword aura flew out, instantly severing Senior Brother Sun's head.
Blood gushed out, staining the ground red.
Senior Brother Sun's eyes widened, filled with resentment.
He was also holding an unidentified purple poison needle in his hand, which should be a special kind of magical artifact.
He probably wanted to feign weakness first, to lower Su Chun's guard, and then deliver a fatal blow to her.
Chapter 75 One of the Five Elements is Missing
Su Chun used her magic to restrain the purple poison needle.
"What a potent poison! If one were to be hit, even a late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator would likely perish on the spot. It's a pity it's not a common magic weapon or artifact. This is a powerful weapon that can be used. I'll take it."
Su Chun put away the poison needles and then began to examine the guy's storage magic item.
The Jade Blood Grass was among them, along with Zhao Fu's storage magic treasure.
"The bond between Daoist partners can't compare to a blade of grass. This path of cultivation is indeed filled with more selfish people. I wonder if I will become one of them in the future. I hope not."
After saying that, Su Chun burned Senior Brother Sun's body and then left as a streak of light.
