He began to attain enlightenment from the Demonic Sect.

Chapter 26 Ambush

"Your 'Heart-Burning Inferno Technique' should be complete by now, right?"

Du Jianyuan turned his head to look at Qin Mo, who was standing to the side with eyes full of amazement, and asked a question.

"With the master's great help, it was successfully completed yesterday..."

Qin Mo quickly ran over, put the pieces of stone into her storage bag, took out a new one, poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, then massaged her shoulders and back, taking meticulous care of her.

Before she began dual cultivation with Du Jianyuan, she had hardly touched her "Heart-Burning Fire Technique".

Over the past six months, I have not only successfully reached the advanced stage, but yesterday I also achieved perfection, which has filled me with joy.

Du Jianyuan took the tea, drank a sip, and nodded slightly.

Ultimately, this is just a beginner's technique; only by cultivating it to perfection can one truly break through to the next level.

"Although I have now mastered sword energy and can use it freely, the Nine Palaces Suspended Evil Sword Control Technique is still a little short of being perfected... Judging from the scriptures recorded in the book, I should have to fight someone first."

Upon hearing this, Qin Mo paused slightly with both hands and asked in a low voice:

"Is it a real fight or a fake one?"

Du Jianyuan knew she was overthinking things, and said calmly:

"I need to kill someone."

Qin Mo's expression immediately turned serious. Having cultivated with Du Jianyuan so many times, she understood her master's temperament to some extent and knew exactly who he wanted to kill. She slowly said:

"Yan Jun".

Du Jianyuan smiled and nodded, then said softly:

"Instead of waiting for him to come knocking on my door after I've finished gathering my energy, I might as well kill him beforehand... I've accumulated quite a few mid-grade talismans in the past six months, so using a few more on him won't hurt."

"No wonder the master has been chatting and laughing with him for the past six months; it turns out he was inquiring about his injuries."

Qin Mo smiled faintly, but a murderous glint gradually appeared in her eyes as she said sincerely:

"When you kill him, I hope you will take me with you... I want to kill this traitor with my own hands!"

"To ensure everything goes smoothly, you'll naturally be included."

Du Jianyuan was not afraid that Qin Mo would have ulterior motives.

Since both of them perfected the "Alternating Method of the Origin of Evil Fire", the seed in Qin Mo's Qi Sea has transformed into an Evil Fire Lotus.

If the other party had even the slightest intention to harm him, this fiery lotus would instantly shatter her Qi Sea and absorb all her true essence.

"good!"

Qin Mo's eyes held both murderous intent and hatred, but considering the extreme risk of killing Yan Jun, she pursed her lips slightly and said:

"If the situation becomes critical, I will risk my life to ensure my master's safe escape."

Du Jianyuan remained calm, poured himself a cup of tea, and took a sip.

If it really comes to that, he will not hesitate to sell Qin Mo.

"This guy's injuries have probably healed a lot... In the past, he would ask people to sell the things he had stolen and share some of the profits with them. But now he's doing this himself... He probably wants to steal more and doesn't want anyone to know."

Du Jianyuan chuckled lightly, put down his teacup, and said:

"He's been embezzling a lot of talismans from the talisman shop lately. He's sold all six of his low-grade talisman masters who failed to complete their tasks to the puppet shop... He'll be running off again in the next two or three days."

……

Three days later, at noon.

Yan Jun left the talisman room and walked down the mountain path until he reached a secluded corner where he finally managed to ride the wind.

He didn't fly very high, and he frequently observed his surroundings along the way, avoiding any disturbances without hesitation.

Normally, he wouldn't need to be so sneaky.

However, recently, in order to give a gift to a senior brother in the inner sect, he could only take more talismans and not record them in the account.

Of course, the inner circle's share of the allowance never changed; the only change was the share given to the person in charge.

"Sigh, this is the last time. As long as I send that top-grade pill up, I'll try my best to make up for Lord Wen's share later."

Yan Jun sighed inwardly.

Only by cultivating a good relationship with that inner sect senior brother can he successfully enter the inner sect after killing Du Jianyuan and obtaining spiritual energy for a breakthrough, without fear of Yin Lang's revenge.

Flying into a remote mountain forest, Yan Jun quickly calmed down and walked into the forest on foot.

Deep in the forest, a figure was already waiting under a tree, looking at him with a smile:

"Yan Jun, how many talismans did you bring back this time? Don't let me leave disappointed."

"Take it and see for yourself."

Yan Jun snorted coldly and tossed a storage bag over.

The figure swiftly began the inspection, and said with considerable surprise:

"Wow! You've got some nerve, even managing to..."

"Stop talking nonsense, you can make a lot from this too!"

Yan Jun quickly stopped him, a cold sweat breaking out on his forehead, and a sense of unease creeping into his heart.

The figure chuckled softly, truly surprised that the other party was so audacious. It would have been fine if they had only taken a small portion of the manager's share, but they had taken it all.

But that's none of his business; he's only responsible for helping sell these things.

As for what happens next, that's up to Yan Jun to handle.

After inspecting the figure, he tossed back a storage bag containing spirit stones and said with a smile:

"It was a pleasure working with you... I hope to have the opportunity to see you again next time!"

Yan Jun did not answer him. After scanning the contents of the storage bag with his spiritual sense, he disappeared into the dense forest without hesitation.

The figure had already left.

however.

Just as Yan Jun was about to leave the dense forest, a faint whooshing sound suddenly came from above.

Yan Jun felt a chill run down his spine, and his robes instantly glowed with protective spiritual light.

Three extremely sharp flaming blades blocked all escape routes, and the mid-grade magic robe was instantly torn open with three gashes, revealing bloody wounds.

Before he could even reach for his storage bag, three more explosive talismans appeared around him.

"Bang bang bang!"

Three explosions rang out, and fierce evil flames slammed solidly into Yan Jun's body, completely shattering the protective aura of the mid-grade magic robe.

"what!"

Yan Jun let out a shrill scream, his body covered in blood and gore. But in the instant of the explosion, his right hand grabbed the storage bag at his waist, and a pill was launched out, landing precisely in his mouth.

Almost at the same moment, Yan Jun suddenly had a large axe full of bloodthirsty energy in his hand, and he swung it behind him without hesitation.

"clang!"

The great axe and the longsword clashed, and the two streams of malevolent fire collided, the enormous recoil sending both of them flying backward.

Only now did Yan Jun have a chance to take a closer look, and he said through gritted teeth:

"You bitch! How dare you plot against me!"

The assassin wore a moon-colored Taoist robe with cloud patterns, her legs were long and slender, and her usually peaceful eyes were now filled with intense killing intent. She said coldly:

"I'm not only going to kill you, I'm going to wipe out the entire Yan family!"

"Give me your life!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she once again charged forward with her longsword.

"Hahaha...you think you can take me?"

Yan Jun laughed wildly, his eyes filled with undisguised sarcasm. After attaching a few more protective amulets, he raised his great axe and brought it down.

……

The two stood quietly behind a large tree not far away.

Qin Mo's gaze faltered slightly, and she couldn't help but whisper:

"Master...why is Shen Suxian here?"
