Holy body, start with the Five Animal Exercises

107: Red Phoenix Division, the ninth phoenixA muffled sound echoed in the underground palace as the rough Demonic Dragon’s form transformed into a thirty-foot-tall Dragon-headed Human-bodied Demonic Body, slightly twisting his neck, his dark golden vertical pupils gazing at the red-robed woman in front of him.

The red-robed woman’s eyes were filled with shock, “You… you’re not Lord Qinghuo! Who exactly are you! Dragon Clan, you’re from the Dragon Clan!”

Damn it! She hadn’t noticed at all!

She had originally thought she could launch a sneak attack while the other party was at a critical stage of absorbing Secret Martial Origin Power.

With her Realm as a ninth-rank Secret Martial Artist, plus the power of the Blood Slaughter Sword, an Origin Weapon in her hand, dealing with a mere ordinary Secret Martial Artist below the seventh-rank, she was sure to kill him with one sword strike!

But she hadn’t expected that the opponent was actually a Dragon Clan member! Those hard scales could even withstand her Blood Slaughter Sword!

This was simply outrageous! Just with such a Physical Body, no matter what Realm the opponent was in, he was already capable of directly confronting high-level Secret Martial Artists!

Across from her, Qin Jiang clenched his fist, and the sound of metal clashing echoed as his fingers gripped.

Compared to the Dragon-shaped Demonic Body, the human form was more suitable for him.

Without any reply, he charged directly at the red-robed woman.

Since this woman knew he was Lord Qinghuo, she must have connections with the people in Ningan City.

And it was quite clear that she was not from a faction friendly to him; she might even be from the Jin Yu Pavilion.

“Kill!”

The red-robed woman shouted, her long sword slashing upwards, drawing a bloody line as it attacked Qin Jiang.

Qin Jiang did not dodge or evade, directly raising his hand to grab.

“Hiss!”

The bloody line cut through the scales, severing a few Dragon scales, but they were restored to their original state in the next moment.

The red-robed woman’s expression changed slightly; such recovery ability definitely proved he was from the Dragon Clan!

Her figure retreated at extreme speed, drawing a red blur, but her gaze remained fixed on Qin Jiang.

What did the Dragon Clan want to do? Did they also want to get involved with Huai Country?

That shouldn’t be; they were entrenched in the East Sea; they shouldn’t be interested in the land.

As she was pondering, surging dark Devilish Qi erupted from Qin Jiang’s body, instantly engulfing the entire underground palace.

The red-robed woman’s Blood Slaughter Sword drew a circle, dispelling the Devilish Qi within ten meters around her.

She cautiously stared at the fog-like Devilish Qi, vaguely able to see a Dragon body appearing and disappearing within it.

Slightly tightening her grip on the sword hilt, her expression was somewhat grim. Although this Demonic Dragon’s Martial Dao Realm was not high, the Dragon Clan itself did not Cultivate the Martial Dao much, but rather focused on Cultivating the Physical Body.

If judged by Physical Body alone, this Demonic Dragon’s strength was probably not beneath hers!

If not for the Blood Slaughter Sword bestowed by Lord Tianfeng, she would not have been able to break through the opponent’s Dragon armor so easily.

But she could not retreat. The black cauldron Origin Weapon was found by Lord Tianfeng with great effort. If it were lost here, she would definitely not be lightly forgiven!

Recalling the other party’s methods, even just the memory made her heart tighten involuntarily.

“Friend of the Dragon Clan, I don’t know why you are in Ningan City, but perhaps we can cooperate.

I imagine you also don’t want your identity to be known by the people of Ningan City, do you? And, no matter what, you have also absorbed the Secret Martial Origin Power of that Origin Weapon, so you can’t really say you’ve lost out, can you?” she said.

“Tell me, your origin,” Qin Jiang’s voice echoed in the Devilish Qi.

The red-robed woman breathed a slight sigh of relief upon hearing the reply. Fortunately, although this Demonic Dragon was arrogant, he was still capable of communication.

“I am the Ninth Feng of the Red Phoenix Division, ordered to come and create a ruin to encircle and kill the Secret Martial experts in Ningan City.

If you are willing to cooperate, after the matter is done, you can take whatever you want; our Red Phoenix Division will not stop you.”

What she said was quite interesting: the Red Phoenix Division would not stop him, but there was more than just the Red Phoenix Division’s power in Ningan City.

However, why would a Dragon Clan member care about such things? They were just a bunch of arrogant fools!

“What is the Red Phoenix Division? I’ve only heard of the Jin Yu Pavilion,” Qin Jiang replied.

He hadn’t expected that Ningan City was actually a treasure trove, attracting so many demons and monsters.

The Ninth Feng’s expression changed slightly. Had he not heard of the Red Phoenix Division?

When their Red Phoenix Division was still in Huai Country, they had dealt with the Dragon Clan.

Could it be that he was just an ordinary member of the Dragon Clan?

If that were the case, then... even better!

Skinning him alive, drawing out his tendons, refining his bones, taking his soul—a Dragon Clan member’s entire body was a treasure!

Previously, she had only been thinking of not letting the other party take any important treasures. Now, take what? You yourself are the treasure!

As long as no old monster from the Dragon Clan made a move, with the strength of their Division Chief, they could completely do it without leaving a trace!

“Our Red Phoenix Division is subordinate to the Huai King Manor, on the same level as the Jin Yu Pavilion. Our Division Chief once even visited the Dragon Clan’s ancestral land and had a very pleasant conversation with your Demonic Dragon Clan Chief!

I originally thought you knew all this, but it turns out to be a misunderstanding. If I had known earlier, I would never have attacked you! I am truly sorry!”

She spoke, showing a hint of apology. Of course, what she said was nonsense; their Division Chief wished he could skin the Demonic Dragon Clan Chief alive, so how could they have had a pleasant conversation?

The reason she said such a flawed statement was simply to verify Qin Jiang’s identity again.

If the other party had some status in the Demonic Dragon Clan, it would naturally be impossible not to know these things.

If he truly didn’t know, then he was either an ordinary clan member or an unappreciated rogue Dragon.

In any case, no matter which it was, there was no need to worry about the Dragon Clan. After he was used up, he would be killed directly!

“So that’s how it is. I didn’t expect your Division Chief to have such a good relationship with the Clan Chief,” Qin Jiang said with a smile, walking out of the Devilish Qi.

The Ninth Feng looked at Qin Jiang as he emerged, a smile on her face, “So it was a misunderstanding. I truly apologize for earlier.”

“How should this cooperation proceed?” Qin Jiang asked.

“You don’t need to trouble yourself, Fellow Daoist. You only need to help us kill a few people at the critical moment. After the matter is done, whatever you want can be given to you,” the Ninth Feng said.

She didn’t even know much about the Division Chief and Tianfeng’s plan, so how could she tell this guy?

“After the matter is done? What I want is not something important. Could you give it to me beforehand?”

Qin Jiang’s figure gradually shrunk, but he still maintained the appearance of a Dragon-headed Human-bodied form.

He waved his hand, and a tea table appeared between the two of them, and he gestured for her to sit down.

The Ninth Feng hesitated for a moment, then gracefully sat down, but still maintained her vigilance, gripping the Blood Slaughter Sword, her attention focused on Qin Jiang opposite her.

As long as the other party maintained the Dragon-headed Human-bodied form, he still possessed the strength for a thunderous strike.

Qin Jiang looked at the Ninth Feng’s cautious demeanor, slightly enlightened. The next moment, the scales on his body receded, revealing a delicate face.

Seeing this, the Ninth Feng breathed a slight sigh of relief, “I wonder what Fellow Daoist wants...”

Hiss!

The sound of sharp claws piercing through flesh rang out. The Ninth Feng stared blankly at the black sharp claw that had passed through her heart, a bloody Dragon claw grasping a still-beating heart.

“What... you! Pfft!”

She spat out a mouthful of fresh blood, feeling the Demonic Fire raging within her body, unreservedly destroying her Physical Body!

This Demonic Dragon really dared to kill me!

When she exerted force with her right arm, wanting to strike a desperate blow with the Blood Slaughter Sword, she suddenly realized that her right arm had already been severed at the root!

She looked at Qin Jiang sitting opposite her, his body transforming into black Demonic Fire, gradually dissipating.

Behind her, Qin Jiang’s Dragon head slightly lowered, “You are too naive. I’m really curious how you’ve lived until today.”

With that, he withdrew his Dragon claw. The Ninth Feng’s body fell heavily, feeling life slowly draining away.

“Don’t... don’t kill me... I haven’t... I can tell... you what you want to know...”
