Return of the King, Dominating the City

Chapter 1965: Chapter 1804: Magic Artifact (2)

"Yes, so what? If you have the guts, just say it," Song Yun cursed, "Damn it, can you speak faster? My hearing’s already declining, the poison’s reached my brain."

Weng Ying squinted her single eye, noticing Song Yun’s slowing pace. She had no doubt about Song Yun being poisoned.

"Hmph, those two are too slow; they can’t possibly escape the pursuit of the eyeball. Even if they know how to deal with it, they can’t do it."

Weng Ying’s face showed an arrogant expression, and she said proudly, "Since you’re about to die, I’ll tell you the answer. To deal with the eyeball, just kill me. The eyeball has become my Lifebound Poison Insect. Once I’m dead, it’ll lose control. If it doesn’t parasitize a new human body afterward, the eyeball will die."

Hearing this, Dongfang Yun’s eyes lit up, and she raised her sword to charge at Weng Ying, shouting to Lin Jun, "So killing her is the solution. Let’s go help Song Yun."

Lin Jun didn’t hesitate either; as Dongfang Yun spoke, he was already moving to attack Weng Ying.

"Fools!"

Weng Ying sneered, disdain showing in her single eye, then the poison crawled onto her face, completely covering it again.

"If you want to die, come on."

Weng Ying shouted coldly, about to charge toward Dongfang Yun and Lin Jun.

Suddenly, a voice sounded behind her.

"So, just by killing you, that disgusting thing loses its use."

It was Song Yun’s voice.

However, Weng Ying showed no trace of fear.

"Hiss..."

The monster eyeball hissed strangely, and seeing Song Yun appear behind Weng Ying, it rushed toward him.

Weng Ying ignored Song Yun behind her and continued rushing towards Dongfang Yun and Lin Jun, sneering, "Haha, you think you can kill me? My body is coated with poison; your sword can’t break through my defense. Ultimately, you’ll die under the eyeball’s mouth."

"That sword can’t kill you. But who said I was going to use that sword? I have another sword with me."

Song Yun grinned mischievously and drew the Black Light Sword with his left hand, slashing it toward Weng Ying.

As soon as the Black Light Sword was drawn, its powerful pressure caused the poison to tremble in fear.

Even the monster eyeball rushing behind Song Yun hesitated slightly, evidently frightened, unsure whether to continue attacking.

Feeling the energy rippling from behind, Weng Ying’s expression drastically changed.

"What is this?"

She cried out in shock, unsure of what was happening behind her.

The terrifying energy made her entire body tense, blood vessels constrict, and she felt an overwhelming sense of danger she couldn’t resist.

She didn’t dare to leave Song Yun unchecked, hurriedly turning to defend and commanding the monster eyeball to attack Song Yun.

"Hiss!"

The monster eyeball, which had hesitated, now obeyed Weng Ying’s command without hesitation, opening rows of dense teeth, emitting a creaking noise, and rushed to bite Song Yun’s back.

At the same time, Song Yun swung the Black Light Sword.

A black Sword Qi burst from the blade, with overwhelming might heading straight for Weng Ying.

The Sword Qi was so violent that, even before striking Weng Ying’s body, it terrified the poison covering her into hissing frantically and crawling to her feet, trying to escape.

Weng Ying’s face was exposed, and she was in a flustered panic, "No, you poisons, protect me!"

Shuffle shuffle shuffle.

The poison returned, quickly covering Weng Ying and no longer struggling, motionless.

Clearly, the poisons had lost their self-awareness, unable to sense danger and completely under Weng Ying’s control.

However, how could these poisons resist the powerful Black Light Sword Qi?

The Black Light Sword Qi swept across, even before Weng Ying could react.

Bang.

A burst of blood rain exploded in the sky, Weng Ying didn’t even have time to let out a scream before she and the poison covering her body were shredded into scraps by the Sword Qi.

Blood and scraps fell, staining the trees under Weng Ying’s feet black and red.

The poison’s venom seeped out, and the trees immediately began to corrode and change color, quickly collapsing, while the land below turned a rotting bluish-black.

"Hiss..."

At the same time, with Weng Ying’s death, her Lifebound Poison Insect, the monster eyeball, lost control, flailing wildly in the air.

The monster eyeball darted around before suddenly shooting toward the horizon, disappearing quickly.

Song Yun didn’t chase it. Although the monster was fierce, once Weng Ying died, it was only a matter of time before the eyeball, blood-bound to her, would also die.

So he wasn’t too worried about the monster eyeball causing trouble.

"This...is too powerful!"

Lin Jun, having seen Song Yun use the Black Light Sword, had his hair standing on end.

The formidable might was unmatchable.

That sword sparked Lin Jun’s deep interest.

"Quick, slay the poisons!"

Dongfang Yun, having seen the Black Light Sword before, wasn’t too surprised. She quickly reminded Lin Jun and then moved to attack the surrounding poisons.

A large number of poisons, without Weng Ying’s control, began scattering in all directions like fleeing soldiers.

These poisons were all extremely toxic creatures. Although not as numerous as those snakes, their escape could cause greater harm.

Song Yun and the other two went different directions to slay the fleeing poisons.

Half an hour later, the three regrouped at their original spot.

Most of the poisons were slain by them, with only a few escaping, which wouldn’t pose much harm.

Song Yun glanced at the remains of Weng Ying and thought to himself, "What a pity, she might have had something good on her, but now it’s all destroyed, leaving nothing. I should use the Black Light Sword sparingly in the future."

Lin Jun approached Song Yun, with admiration on his face, saying, "Brother, you’re incredible. If it weren’t for you, I’m afraid we would’ve fallen into that old poisonous woman’s trap. Especially that monster eyeball, it was truly formidable, like nothing I’ve ever seen or heard before."

Dongfang Yun also joined them, sheathed her sword, and said solemnly, "It’s fortunate we killed Weng Ying, or who knows how many Huaxia people she would’ve harmed with all those poisons."

"There are many powerful individuals in Huaxia, she had to operate in secrecy. If she dared to show her face, she’d be killed sooner or later."

Song Yun said, sheathing the Throat Sealing Sword.

Just as he was about to put away the Black Light Sword, Lin Jun spoke up, "Hold on."

"Brother Lin, is there something you need?" Song Yun asked.

Lin Jun showed an embarrassed expression, giving a dry smile, "Brother, could I have a look at that Sword?"

Having fought alongside Lin Jun, Song Yun had come to see him as a worthy ally.

So when Lin Jun asked to see the Black Light Sword, he didn’t refuse and handed it over with a grin, "Brother Lin, look and touch as you please, no charge."

Lin Jun was momentarily surprised, then took the Black Light Sword, smiling, "Brother, you do know how to joke."

After that, Lin Jun observed the Black Light Sword closely.

After a while, he looked surprised and muttered, "No wonder it’s so powerful, this is actually a Magic Artifact."

"Magic Artifact!"

Dongfang Yun’s eyes brightened, gazing at Song Yun.

She had long suspected the Black Light Sword was a Magic Artifact but hadn’t been sure.

Hearing Lin Jun’s words now, she was a bit surprised.

According to Song Yun, he wasn’t from the Hermit Realm, yet he possessed a Magic Artifact.

Magic Artifacts are rare, even in the Hermit Realm, and each faction desires to own them.

Now, with Song Yun in possession of such a powerful Magic Artifact, if word got out, it would undoubtedly attract others trying to seize it.

After all, the allure of a Magic Artifact is tremendous for a Hermit.

Having a Magic Artifact could elevate one’s combat power by several levels.

In that moment, Dongfang Yun even worried that Lin Jun might have ulterior motives.

But when she looked at Lin Jun, she realized she was overthinking.

Lin Jun’s eyes were righteous, without a trace of greed.
