Volume 5, Chapter 12: The Three Deadly Techniques

Following the servant into the living room, Wu Tianjiao immediately saw Eagle King Yuwen Tao sitting in the main seat, his face unusually

grim, a dark cloud hanging over him. This was understandable; the news he had gathered had nearly driven him mad. It seemed this time,

his daughter was truly at stake. If Wu Tianjiao didn't marry his daughter, she might truly remain unmarried.

Initially, Yuwen Tao suspected Wu Tianjiao and his group of leaking the information, but according to Afu, who was monitoring them, the six were practicing martial arts

in the dead of night , and many guards had witnessed them from outside the windows. Wu Tianjiao and the others hadn't

left the main gate at all. Therefore, Yuwen Tao found it hard to believe they had leaked the information. Besides, the six had no idea

he was targeting them.

It was just that yesterday, with so many people in the mansion, who knew which damned person had leaked it? Adding fuel to the fire. It seemed he had been

too careless, neglecting the people within his own ranks. Xiong Shiguang, the lord of Xiong Family Fortress, was my mortal enemy. It was possible that

a spy he had planted in the manor had leaked the information to damage my reputation—how insidious! I must

find this damned spy.

"I wonder what important matter Your Highness has summoned me for?" Wu Tianjiao asked bluntly.

"Nothing much. You saved my daughter and me yesterday, and I haven't had a chance to properly thank you.

That's why I've invited you here for a meal," Yuwen Tao said awkwardly.

Wu Tianjiao understood what Yuwen Tao was up to, but dared not show it, only saying, "Thank you, Your Highness."

After a pause, he asked, "Your Highness, is the Princess alright?"

"Afu, go and fetch the Princess," Yuwen Tao said. He thought that since things had come to this point, he

had no choice but to accept this son-in-law. Now, he had to let him and his daughter meet formally.

After sitting down, the two exchanged pleasantries and chatted about everyday matters. Yuwen Tao then began to inquire about Wu Tianjiao's family

background. Seeing Wu Tianjiao's extraordinary bearing and the exceptionally beautiful maidservants beside him, he knew he must be someone of great importance.

Before Wu Tianjiao could answer, Afu, who had gone to summon Yuwen Xiang, rushed back,

followed by the princess's two maidservants.

"Your Highness! Your Highness..." Afu looked anxious, glancing at Wu Tianjiao and the others, but hesitated to speak.

Yuwen Tao frowned. He and Wu Tianjiao were practically family; there was no need to hide anything. He immediately said

, "Afu, Young Master Wu is one of us. Please speak freely."

"Your Highness, the princess is missing?" Afu asked cautiously.

"What? The princess is missing?" Yuwen Tao jumped back in shock, shouting, "How could the princess be missing?

What happened?"

The maid said, "This morning, I was preparing to help the princess with her toilette, but when I entered the room, I couldn't find her.

I only found a letter she left on the bedside table."

Today was truly a day of double misfortune for Yuwen Tao. The princess's affair had become the talk of the town, a laughingstock among the people of Iron

Dragon City . He was, after all, a prince, a powerful figure in the empire, but now

, the princess's affair had made him lose face in front of his subordinates.

"Quick... give the letter to me," Yuwen Tao said anxiously.

Afu hurriedly handed him the letter. Yuwen Tao took the letter and recognized

his daughter . It read: Father, I know it was wrong to leave without saying goodbye, but I

returned without telling my master. Therefore, I must hurry back to the mountain. I hope you take care of yourself.

Yuwen Tao felt a pang of distress. What was wrong? Knowing his daughter's personality, he knew

she not agree to the marriage, but she wouldn't do anything foolish.

Just then, a guard reported, "Your Highness, Inspector Jin requests an audience."

Ah! Yuwen Tao was slightly startled, slapping his forehead in annoyance. How could he have

forgotten this troublesome matter? Jin Changxu was practically his chosen son-in-law, but what would happen now that he'd caused such a commotion? Jin Ji was one of his

top truly a problem.

Sigh! Yuwen Tao sighed inwardly and instructed the guard, "Tell him to wait in the living room."

Wu Tianjiao and the others hadn't even had breakfast yet. Seeing these developments was completely unexpected

; they hadn't anticipated things would escalate so much. Wu Tianjiao's original plan was simply a self-defense tactic, but it had turned into

a complications.

Wu Tianjiao stood up and bowed, saying, "Since Your Highness has important matters to attend to, we will not disturb you any longer. We were originally

going to Fengcheng, and we have been here for quite some time. It is time to bid farewell to Your Highness."

"Fengcheng?" Yuwen Tao was taken aback, but did not have time to think further. He dared not do

anything . Even if the six of them went to Fengcheng, they would still be under his jurisdiction and control. The rest could only

be discussed after finding his daughter. Besides, if he kept them, who knew what trouble they might cause in Tielong City?

"In that case, I will not keep Young Master Wu any longer. Fengcheng is not far from here. If you have time, Young Master Wu

should come often! Afu, go to the treasury and get 50,000 gold coins for Young Master Wu."

"Your Highness, there is no need for this." Wu Tianjiao declined.

"Young Master Wu has relieved my father and me of our danger and saved my daughter's life. What is this little bit of money?" Yuwen

Tao chuckled. Both in terms of sentiment and reason, these people should be treated kindly.

Wu Tianjiao didn't want to refuse the money anyway; only a fool wouldn't accept it. Ying Ying'er was even happier, giggling, "

Brother Wu, since His Highness thinks so highly of us, let's accept it! After all, it's His Highness's kind gesture

!"

Wu Tianjiao had no intention of giving up this fortune; he was just putting on an act, otherwise others would think he was

a miser. But thinking about it carefully, he realized he might actually be that kind of person. He immediately thanked him, "In that case, we

thank His Highness."

After dismissing the six people, Yuwen Tao had to deal with the trouble at hand. He felt inexplicably depressed: "

What bad luck!"

In the past, the "Five Rats of Fengcheng" often caused trouble in Iron Dragon City, but nothing serious ever happened. But since "Wu Tiancheng" and the others

came, so many things had happened. The appearance of the magical beasts was too strange. He had been too tired these past two days

to deal with these things. As the saying goes: "Strange omens in the sky are sure to be a sign of something ominous." Could it be that something terrible is about to happen to the empire

?

Just as Wu Tianjiao and the others left, and Yuwen Tao was about to go see Jin Changxu, the steward suddenly rushed

in and reported to him, "Your Highness! Princess Qianning has arrived!"

Yuwen Tao was taken aback, his brow furrowing in confusion. "Why is she not staying in Dayuan City? Why has she come to my Tielong

City ? Has something happened in Dayuan City?" Thinking this, he felt a chill run down his spine and, not daring to be negligent,

quickly ordered, "Take her to the secret chamber!"

After leaving the Eagle King's Mansion, Wu Tianjiao and the others found a high-class restaurant in the city and had a big meal. Meanwhile, the surrounding

patrons were still discussing the matter of Princess Hanhai, engaging in lively conversation.

Wu Tianjiao couldn't help but sigh, truly, public opinion is a fearsome thing! He thought to himself that he must make good use of this

method .

Once outside Tielong City, all six of them breathed a sigh of relief.

"Brother Wu, didn't we go too far this time?" Ying Ying'er asked.

"You little brat, did you get dizzy seeing the Prince reward us with 50,000 gold coins and start feeling sorry for

others ? Actually, I didn't want to do this either, but if we hadn't, we might not have made it out alive," Wu

Tianjiao said.

Wu Tianjiao was unusually humble. Although he possessed considerable supernatural abilities, he was also self-aware. With hundreds

of thousands , even the arrogant Wu Tianjiao could imagine the consequences of eliminating them.

Escaping Iron Dragon City this time was truly fortunate. The distance

from Iron Dragon City to Wind City wasn't far, only three hundred li. However, it was separated by numerous mountains, and the road

was rugged and difficult to traverse.

After half a day of travel, Wu Tianjiao and his group arrived at a valley. Just then, the Holy Mother of Thunder Sound suddenly frowned and

said to Wu Tianjiao, "We seem to be in trouble!"

Before she finished speaking, Ying Ying'er exclaimed, "Brother Wu, there seems to be someone on horseback blocking the road

ahead !"

"Is that so?" Wu Tianjiao looked up and indeed saw a rider and a person; one look at their attire revealed who it was.

It was exactly what he hadn't wanted; Wu Tianjiao knew he was in trouble again.

"Inspector Jin is waiting here, perhaps to see us off? Thank you so much," Wu Tianjiao

chuckled from his Crimson Dragon Beast.

"Wu Tiancheng, stop trying to fool me! Don't play dumb. You should know what you've done!"

Jin Changxu roared, his face filled with murderous intent.

Jin Changxu was truly frustrated, so frustrated he almost vomited blood. This morning, he woke up intending to visit the princess,

only to find servants gathered in small groups, whispering amongst themselves, and giving him strange looks.

These servants, of course, knew that Jin Changxu was pursuing the princess relentlessly, and that both families were planning a marriage alliance. After Jin Changxu

pressed repeatedly, the servants finally revealed the truth. Jin Changxu was nearly driven mad upon hearing this, but still couldn't believe it. Then, after

inquiring outside, he discovered that the entire Iron Dragon City was buzzing with rumors about the princess and Wu Tianjiao.

Jin Changxu was furious, his anger blazing, and he roared in his heart, "Wu Tiancheng, I will kill you...

" He immediately rode at full speed to the Eagle King's Mansion, only to find that the prince said the six people had already left, and the princess had also returned to

Tianxue Mountain.

Upon learning that Wu Tianjiao was heading to Fengcheng, Jin Changxu, who was very familiar with the area, took a shortcut

and waited at Fenghui Valley. Finally, his efforts paid off, and he intercepted Wu Tianjiao and his party.

"Inspector Jin, I think you've misunderstood. Don't believe those rumors on the street. My brother and the princess

are innocent!" Ying Ying'er suddenly became timid, not wanting to cause any more trouble.

"Wu Tiancheng, you don't need to say anything more. Today it's either you or me. Are you going to come

at me one by one, or all at once?" Jin Changxu roared, his face ashen. He was determined today. Yuwen Tao had strictly ordered

him not to make things difficult for Wu Tianjiao and the others, but he couldn't swallow this insult and was determined to avenge the humiliation inflicted on his wife.

Wu Tianjiao also sensed the seriousness of the situation. He and Jin Changxu couldn't resolve things peacefully, but he wasn't

one to back down. Since there was no way to avoid it, a battle was inevitable. He immediately said, "Since Inspector Jin is determined to use force, then I have no

choice but to risk my life to accompany him."

"Young Master, let this servant deal with him!" the Sword Maiden volunteered.

Wu Tianjiao shook his head, saying, "This is between him and me, and it should be resolved by ourselves. None of you

should interfere. All of you, step back. Without my orders, none of you should come forward to help me." With that, he jumped off his

Crimson Dragon Beast. He didn't want to defeat Jin Changxu with a top-tier magical beast mount.

Jin Changxu also jumped off his horse, realizing that this was a narrow official road, not a suitable place for a mounted fight.

Holding his Soul-Locking Spear, he exuded a powerful aura, appearing imposing.

His military service as a young man allowed Jin Changxu to maintain composure and focus solely on his enemy. Seeing this, Wu Tianjiao

dared not be careless and drew his Fallen Iron Heavy Sword.

As soon as Wu Tianjiao held the heavy sword, Jin Changxu's Soul-Locking Spear trembled slightly, as if sensing a hint of

unease, causing his expression to change.

This Soul-Locking Spear was a renowned weapon; when his father passed it down to him, he had said: "The spear

is life, life is the spear; the spear is the man, the spear is the man; the spear is destroyed, the man dies." Jin Changxu knew his life was tied to the spear. But now,

the trembling of the Soul-Locking Spear made him uneasy, knowing that his opponent's sword was also a renowned weapon, no less powerful than his

Soul-Locking Spear.

Jin Changxu knew he couldn't wait any longer, or he might be defeated without a fight. Immediately, he swung his spear, the Soul-Locking

Spear thrusting forward with the force of a storm. The first move of the Soul-Locking Spear Technique, "Whirlwind Thrust."

A sky full of spear shadows swept in, indistinguishable from reality. After activating his Dragon Elephant Divine Skill, Wu Tianjiao

felt a sudden clarity before his eyes. Among the hundreds of spear shadows, only the one aimed at his heart was real.

Without hesitation, Wu Tianjiao struck with his heavy sword. The move appeared unremarkable, without whistling wind or dazzling

light. Things that should never meet in the world finally met—spear tip and sword tip clashed.

Clang! Both were jolted and separated. Although neither had gained the upper hand, Jin Changxu had clearly lost a point.

He had taken the initiative, using all his moves, while Wu Tianjiao was on the defensive.

The five onlookers, except for the Thunderous Holy Mother, only saw a sky full of spear shadows, while Wu Tianjiao's extremely slow sword

strike had managed to make spear and sword collide. How could this be? All four found it unbelievable.

Ying Ying'er thought she could block Jin Changxu's spear, but not as easily as Wu Tianjiao. The Twin Sword Maidens

believed that only close combat with Jin Changxu would bring them victory. Pei Di, the weakest among them, believed that he had already died

once . However, as long as he maintained a sufficient distance from Jin Changxu and shot an arrow,

Jin Changxu would surely be the first to die.

Jin Changxu's first thrust failed, leaving him utterly shocked. In his quest to kill Wu Tianjiao quickly, he had unleashed

the three deadly moves of the Soul-Locking Spear Technique. Unexpectedly, the "Whirlwind Thrust," a strike guaranteed to draw blood, had failed. Perhaps this kid was just too lucky

to have dodged this attack. The next thrust wouldn't be so fortunate.

Although Wu Tianjiao had caught the attack, he was also in grave danger. Had it not been for his superior skill and keen eyesight, he

would likely have perished. He couldn't help but secretly admire Jin Changxu's spear technique.

"Wu Tiancheng, you dodged the 'Whirlwind Thrust,' now let's see how you break my 'Wave-Chasing Flow'!" With a roar,

Jin Changxu's Soul-Locking Spear flew from his hand, hurtling towards them.

The five people nearby were even more confused, thinking, "Has Jin Changxu gone mad? Does he want to play with javelins?

This is a life-or-death struggle, not a hunt."

Only the Thunderous Holy Mother, her expression grave, understood something, secretly gathering her strength,

ready to intervene at any moment.

What Wu Tianjiao saw was completely different. He saw a wave crashing towards him, and

despite the sunlight, he felt no warmth. He tried his best to wield his sword with impenetrable precision. But the pressure of the wave grew stronger, and

he felt like a lone boat in a vast ocean, about to be swallowed up at any moment.

Jin Changxu, watching all this from the outside, secretly gloated. It seemed he had overestimated this kid;

his earlier success was just luck, but his good fortune had run out. Jin Changxu knew the time was almost up; what he had created

earlier was all an illusion. The real killing move was just beginning. He leaped into the air, grabbing

the spearhead amidst the chaos, and thrust it swiftly towards Wu Tianjiao's chest.

Wu Tianjiao felt the wave suddenly disappear, followed by a powerful surge of energy. He

seized the opportunity to circulate his previously chaotic Dragon Elephant True Qi. Jin Changxu's movements seemed incredibly slow to him.

The Sword Maiden, whose sword was already drawn, stared in disbelief at everything before her; it was too outrageous.

Just as the Soul-Locking Spear was about to pierce him, Wu Tianjiao's heavy sword struck the spear tip again. The two separated once more.

At this moment, Jin Changxu's face was filled with fear and disbelief. Wu Tianjiao's ability to hit

the spear tip every time meant that killing him was incredibly easy for the other party. He just didn't know why the other party had shown mercy.

Was there really something more to this?

Wu Tianjiao was also sweating profusely. The other party's spear skills were exceptional, truly a rare

young master. He immediately said, "Inspector Jin, shouldn't we stop? This is truly a misunderstanding.

The princess and I are completely innocent. The palace is so heavily guarded, how could I possibly do such a thing? Perhaps

someone is trying to sabotage your marriage with the princess. You should think about whether you have any rivals or enemies."

Even at this point, he wouldn't admit his guilt. He spoke with restraint, without blushing or panting.

"I really admire Brother Wu. He can lie so convincingly, and he even found a whole bunch of

fabricated facts. With a princess of such noble status and beauty, of course many people would pursue her.

If Jin Changxu thought about it that way, he would surely come up with two or three enemies. Brother Wu is a genius! If I didn't

know the truth, I would think he was innocent," Ying Ying'er muttered softly.

The Sword and Saber Twins were both amused and exasperated, but they couldn't help but admire Wu Tianjiao's shamelessness. They felt that if he acted as a persuader, he could

definitely make the dead speak and pigs fly.

Pei Di looked on with admiration; he had immense respect for Wu Tianjiao. His martial arts were so powerful, and his wisdom

was even more extraordinary—he was truly omnipotent.

Hearing Wu Tianjiao's words, Jin Changxu also began to doubt his own judgment. Could it be

the work of those bastards? They had always been eyeing his and the princess's affair. He

had just gotten angry when he heard about it and hadn't considered it at all.

Maybe he really was too stupid. But when Jin Changxu thought of the gossip on the street, he

realized goddess; how could he allow anyone to defile her! This thought fueled his anger again.

"Wu Tiancheng, I know my skills are inferior to yours, but I'll still fight. My next move is

the final move of the Soul-Locking Spear's 'Three Deadly Forms.' If you can withstand it, our feud will be over, and we'll be strangers."

At this moment, Jin Changxu also admired Wu Tianjiao, his hatred lessening. He had survived the first two moves of the Three Deadly Forms

unscathed —something even his father couldn't do. His father said the final move was incredibly powerful, earth-shattering,

and terrifying, but also extremely dangerous. Although he hadn't mastered it, he had no choice but to try.

"Alright, then come on!" Wu Tianjiao said in a deep voice, adjusting his inner energy to its optimal state,

focusing all his attention. He knew that Jin Changxu's final move was definitely no ordinary attack.
