Legendary Armament Canon Novel - Chapter 288

Zhou Shu’s confidence really intimidated Yao Qing.

He frowned and stared at Zhou Shu with a solemn expression.

This human, whose spiritual essence cultivation was clearly only at the third rank of the Martial Dao, was a mystery to him.

Yao Qing could still vaguely feel pain all over his body from the battle yesterday.

This human’s body was even stronger than that of demons!

It went against everything he knew about humans.

Moreover, in the short exchange just now, Yao Qing could tell that this human’s saber technique attainments were far above his.

As for how far above, he couldn’t tell.

Now, he even suspected that this person’s spiritual essence cultivation was not at the third rank at all!

It was impossible for a third-rank martial artist to be so strong.

Even so, Yao Qing didn’t believe that Zhou Shu could easily kill them!

Yao Qing was confident in himself. Ever since he was old enough, he had never slacked off for a day.

There might not be anyone in the entire demon race who was more diligent than him.

He didn’t train so hard to admit defeat so easily.

In that case, how would he ever defeat Yao Wudi?

Yao Qing’s eyes suddenly lit up.

Zhou Shu was sizing up Yao Qing when he suddenly noticed that the hesitation in his eyes had disappeared. In its place was determination.

He felt a twinge of regret.

Yao Qing was half-human and half-demon. Zhou Shu was very interested in his origins.

But after entering the dream for three years, Yao Qing was very secretive about this matter, and the information Zhou Shu could obtain was really limited.

He had wanted to break through the defenses in Yao Qing’s heart step by step and then find an opportunity to take him in.

Now, it seemed this was impossible.

Yao Qing was extraordinarily determined.

Thinking about it, it made sense. After decades of bitter cultivation, how could it be so easy to subdue a person who didn’t give in to alcohol, women, and money?

“I won’t do it the hard way or the easy way.” Yao Qing held his long saber, his eyes filled with battle intent as he stared at Zhou Shu.

“Come and kill me if you can!

“If I can’t even defeat you, what right do I have to defeat Yao Wudi!”

Boom—

A ball of light exploded from Yao Qing’s body. An astonishing aura spread out from him like a whirlwind.

With a roar, all the trees and rocks within a thousand feet were destroyed.

“Come on!” Yao Qing shouted.

“Since you have a death wish, I’ll grant you your wish!” Zhou Shu said calmly.

He took a step forward as his body started glowing gold.

He took another step, and a monstrous aura surged into the sky.

Another step, and he was in front of Yao Qing.

The Great Destroyer Sword behind him shot out.

At the same time, the new Spring Embroidered Saber at his waist also turned into a white light and attacked Yao Qing like a dragon.

Since words didn’t work, he would beat him into submission!

Zhou Shu immediately attacked him.

Astounding Heavenly Eighteen Swords, Heavenly Saber Art.

His saber and sword moved at the same time.

This was the first time Zhou Shu had attacked using both a saber and sword in battle. Yao Qing should feel honored.

Boom—

Yao Qing’s eyes were filled with sword light and saber beam. He felt as if he had become a small boat in a boundless storm and could be shattered by the huge waves at any moment.

He hadn’t felt this powerless and small in years.

Yao Qing bit the tip of his tongue and shocked himself sober. He let out a shocking roar and slashed out with the saber in his hand.

The powerful impact sent Yao Buqi flying hundreds of feet away.

He got to his feet, spat the silt out of his mouth, and spat twice more.

Fortunately, Yao Buqi was a demon. Otherwise, with his spiritual essence sealed, he would be severely injured by the aftershock of the battle between the two experts.

Yao Buqi looked at the battle not far away. Suddenly, his eyes lit up. That person is fighting with Yao Qing. Wouldn’t I be able to escape?

He glanced toward the human camp. His men were still there as miners.

But it didn’t matter. As long as he returned to the demon race’s base camp, he could easily gather another group of subordinates.

He turned back to the demon camp.

There was a demon army of 5,000 there. As long as he escaped there, no matter how strong this human was, he wouldn’t dare to attack the demon army head-on.

Yao Buqi sneered in his heart. Human, oh, human, you’ve made the wrong choice bringing me here to provoke Yao Qing.

As long as I escape to the camp, I can still carry on my plan!

If Yao Qing isn’t enough, I’ll find a few more people!

Yao Buqi thought about it and started walking.

He had just taken a step when a saber beam suddenly descended from the sky.

Half a Spring Embroidered Saber flew in front of him and stabbed into the ground.

Yao Buqi was stunned. He stiffened, not daring to move.

What kind of freak is he? How can he be distracted by me while fighting Yao Qing?

Yao Buqi cursed in his heart. His spiritual essence had been sealed. Even if demons’ bodies were strong, they couldn’t withstand the attacks of an expert.

“Stay put, or I don’t mind sending you on your way early.” Zhou Shu’s voice was cold.

“How dare you be distracted while fighting me? You’re courting death!” Yao Qing roared.

The aura on his body became violent again. He held his saber with both hands and kept slashing.

In terms of saber techniques, Yao Qing couldn’t compare to this human, but he wasn’t attacking for nothing!
