“Commit all sorts of crimes? That is to say, the real leader of the murder plot tonight is actually you.” Ding Hao frowned.

  Jiang Disheng nodded shamelessly, “Yes, it’s me. Because you showed a terrible potential during the battle at the Mirror Lake. Even the Hidden Genius List of Snow Province has been changed again and again because of you, which has never happened before. The Tranquility Academy refuses to let such a terrible hostile genius grow up smoothly, so you must be destroyed. And without doubt, these days are the best time to kill you.”


  “The best time?” Ding Hao gave a slight smile carrying a hint of ridicule.

  Jiang Disheng also said with a smile, “Although I’m not sure why you’re able to restrain the animal nature and display the martial technique of the Human Tribe after you incarnate as the Baleful Devil White Ape, it’s absolutely certain that your real strength is just at the congenital grandmaster realm. You forcibly displayed the Beast Transform that day, which will inevitably cause extremely serious sequelae. You’ll definitely be at the weakest state in the next ten days. We’ve got the relevant proof to confirm that. Moreover, the demise of the inspector has made the entire Snow Province a mess. So, the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect can’t expect us to kill you at this time, and they won’t be on guard. We’ll blame the demons for your death. Since they even dared to kill the inspector of the Holy Palace of Mysterious Frost. It’s reasonable that they kill you, a human genius.”


  Ding Hao nodded, as if he had thought of something again, saying, “You’re indeed very cautious. Though there are so many favorable conditions on your side, you’re still worried. So, you secretly sent the Double Wind and Lightning to take the lead, in order to test my guard. Your tolerance is indeed terrifying.”


  Jiang Disheng smiled, “In the past ten years or more, under the cover of Mu Tianyang’s light, the only thing I learned was not to do things that are unsure. I endured everything. Leiyin School. If the Leiyin Sect wants to rise with the help of our Tranquility Academy, it must pay a price. In my opinion, it’s definitely worth it to trade their decay tonight for your death.”


  Ding Hao smiled slightly and said, “You really think highly of me.”


  “Attaching importance to each opponent is not only the respect for the opponent, but also the responsibility for oneself,” Jiang Disheng said seriously, “The facts also prove that my attention was correct. Without the Double Wind and Lightning being the lure tonight, I wouldn’t know that the Phoenix and the Purple Hair Silver Eyes, the two geniuses on the top of the Hidden Genius List, were also disciples of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect. Jian Zong. Your Swordsmanship-seeking Sect has been plotting with a big plan over the past few years.”


  “They’re not disciples of the sect, just my personal friends…… Anyway, since you’re willing to say so much to me patiently, you must think you’re sure to win tonight, right?” Ding Hao raised his head, looking into the direction of the Swordsmanship-seeking Mountain Villa.

  “I don’t think you have any chance to make a comeback. In order to lure the Double Wind and Lightning out, you didn’t hesitate to try the poison yourself. Maybe you’ve noticed something before the assassination tonight, and took some antidote in advance. But since the Rambling Powder ranked fourth on the Odd Poison List of Snow Province, can the normal antidote detoxify it? “You’re a very clever person. In addition to testing the poison yourself, you even lured the Heaven Wind Devil Girl out at the risk of injury. Your strategy was undoubtedly successful before my appearance. In order not to alarm us, you didn’t ask for the help of the elder experts of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, so as to let us think you were not on guard. The Phoenix vs the Heaven Wind Devil Girl, while the Purple Hair Silver Eyes vs the Ninth Heaven Thunder Dragon. All four of them are the top young experts on the Hidden Genius List of Snow Province, and their rankings are not far from each other. Your people didn’t take part in the battle at the Mirror Lake, but the Double Wind and Lightning’s energy was consumed in that battle, so you think that victory is in your hands……”


  Jiang Disheng analyzed with confidence, his eyes shining with bright light under the moonlight.

  He continued with a smile, “I have to admit that your plan is perfect and likely to succeed. But you forgot an old saying, that is, the Mantis stalks the Cicada, unaware of the Oriole behind. Ignoring the emergence of a third party is the deadliest drawback of your plan. Ding Hao, you’re still too confident in yourself after all.”


  Ding Hao smiled brilliantly. His white teeth looked particularly beautiful in the moonlight. He asked back, “Really? What if I say you’re the one who is too confident?”


  Jiang Disheng was slightly stunned. His expression changed, and a look of vigilance finally appeared on his face. He pretended to be calm, “The temptation of words won’t bring you any vitality.”


  Ding Hao laughed out loud, “You’re also tempting me, aren’t you? Jiang Disheng, it seems that the tolerance you’ve trained for so many years is not enough. You’re so confident because you don’t know me at all……”
……

  Before he finished his words, boundless radiance suddenly burst out from his body, sweeping away his decadent spirit.

  A small yellow spark appeared in his left hand, which suddenly enlarged the next moment, completely covering the left half of Ding Hao’s body. At the same time, a crystal snowflake appeared in his right hand, which also suddenly released endless ice and snow like an avalanche, surrounding the right half of Ding Hao’s body.

  The Wen Qing Saber and the Rusted Sword appeared in his hands in the twinkling of light.

  What surprised Jiang Disheng more was the five or six striking bloodied holes on Ding Hao’s body that were magically healed in an instant. There were no scars on his smooth skin. If it wasn’t for the holes in his clothes, no one would believe that he had been hurt. His white face had also turned reddish in an instant. If it wasn’t for the blood under his feet that had yet to dry up, it would make people mistakenly think the lost blood had also returned to Ding Hao’s body in a flash.

  “I forgot to tell you that I’ve died once. I know the terrifying taste of death, so I’m afraid of death very much. I never put myself in danger, even to lure enemies,”


  Ding Hao said with a bright smile.

  Jiang Disheng’s pupils shrank instantly.

  The vital force Ding Hao released at the moment was even more terrifying than in the previous battle at the Mirror Lake. He had no signs of injury. Before Jiang Disheng could react, he felt an unprecedented warning rising in his heart. He dodged subconsciously, and, at the same time, activated a defensive magical weapon on his body. It radiated brilliant light and formed a shield-like golden light wall in front. Jiang Disheng took the opportunity to retreat as fast as lightning.

  The next moment, he only felt that a beam of gold and silver flowing light was flashing in front of him. And a severe killing intent chilled his skin.

  Crack!

  Jiang Disheng was horrified. As a six-rank defensive magical weapon, the Vajra Shield light wall before his body was able to withstand a full strike of the great grandmasters, such high ranking experts. But at the first contact, it was crushed like rubble hit by a hammer. That sharp golden killing intent came with him, like a parasitic maggot.

  “What powerful strength……”


  A trace of coldness rose in Jiang Disheng’s heart. With the short obstruction of the Vajra Shield, he finally had time to draw his sword.

  Clang!

  A dazzling ray of sword light rose into the sky.

  Almost ninety percent of Jiang Disheng’s skills were about his sword. With the sword in his hand, he was relieved and laughed out loud. With a brandish of his sword, he formed numerous cold stars and sword flowers, counterattacking the opponent like a drenching rain.

  But—


  What happened the next moment completely destroyed his pride.

  A hint of silver ice and snow passed by, and the Rusty Sword covered with a thin layer of silver frost passed by in a flash.

  The sword light Jiang Disheng formed all over the sky, at that moment, was as fragile as a piece of blank paper. It was incredibly divided in two pieces, all in an instant. The power of the sword technique poured towards the sides softly. At the center, a sword shadow pierced in like a ray of light instantly, aiming directly at the center between Jiang Disheng’s eyebrows.

  “How could that be!”


  Jiang Disheng’s heart and gallbladder were torn.

  The sword light he formed was not a substance, but a kind of aura and power. However, it was cut into two pieces by the Rusty Sword in the hands of Ding Hao. Was that white soft light…… his sword intent?……

  Would it be like that?

  It was said that the young genius of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect had mastered the sword intent, which Jiang Disheng had once despised.

  Sword intent was an opportunity that could only be found by accident for thousands of years. Not to mention a junior, even the Master of the Tranquility Academy, Li Jianyi, the Sword Intent King of the Swordsmanship-seeking Sect, and other sword grandmasters hadn’t yet touched the edge of sword intent, including Mu Tianyang who had covered Jiang Disheng’s light. Jiang Disheng knew Mu Tianyang very much. In order to master sword intent, Mu Tianyang had done a lot of hard work, but still failed. However, the truth was in front of Jiang Disheng at the moment. The sword attack Ding Hao made was endless in intent. It could tear everything. With such unmatched strength, it was definitely not an ordinary sword technique. It had to be sword intent.

  Jiang Disheng brandished his sword to resist.

  Clang!

  A soft sound was heard. The collision of the rusted sword in his hand with Ding Hao’s rusted sword left a soybean-sized cut on his sword.

  His face changed dramatically.

  Looking fragile, the rusted sword in his hand was actually a Level Six magical weapon that had once been used by an old great expert of the Tranquility Academy. It had a history of more than 500 years. Before him, there were numerous outstanding disciples of the Tranquility Academy, but none of them had conquered that sword. Ever since he obtained it from the arsenal of the Tranquility Academy, he had battled against countless famous swords and sabers of Snow Province with it. He took the upper hand every time, but, to his surprise, today……

  Could it be that this Ding Hao was his nemesis?

  At that moment, Jiang Disheng involuntarily thought of the words that Lu Pengfei had said before his death.

  Ding Hao was actually better than Jiang Disheng, regardless if it was calculations or weapons.

  Was that rusted sword in his hand a kind of amazing treasure?

  Full of thoughts in his mind, Jiang Disheng displayed the Tranquility Sword Technique without hesitation. Before he could think of a way to escape, he could only defend.

  All at once, sparks splashed in the split of a second, amongst the clangs like a heavy rain. Jiang Disheng’s rusted sword was covered with gaps like a saw, buzzing ceaselessly.

  That was the horror of sword intent.

  It restrained all sword techniques.

  It had a keen insight into all matters.

  In the blink of an eye, half an hour passed.

  Jiang Disheng had used many sword techniques. The swordsmanship he learned was extremely broad and profound. Ordinary people might not be able to master half of the amount of sword techniques Jiang Disheng learned in their whole lifetimes. But in front of Ding Hao’s soft sword intent, Jiang Disheng couldn’t display the sword skills completely. Because, when the first half of any strong move was displayed, its stamina and hind move would be blocked by the sword intent. So, it couldn’t be continuous or even complete.

  Jiang Disheng’s strength was completely suppressed; he couldn’t exert half of his usual strength, which extremely depressed him.

  “No, I must resort to my killer move.” Jiang Disheng’s mind changed. For a while, knowing that it was not too late, the sword style would change. He couldn’t wait and changed his swords technique immediately.

  At that time—


  “Haha, so much for that. Jiang Disheng, take out all your strength and fight for your life.” Ding Hao stopped attacking, suddenly releasing an incredible and horrifying momentum as powerful as God’s. The water around him seemed to be held down by an invisible giant hand and dropped down a foot with a bang.

  Even the surrounding air was condensed like a transparent viscous jelly.
