As An Immortal, I Only Learn Forbidden Skills

173 Uproot the Weeds

It was obvious that they wanted to kill him in a single blow.

In the dark, a few figures had cruel smiles on their faces.

However, the flying sword suddenly hit a green light shield, causing a series of sparks. It bounced back immediately.

The rope also hit the light shield, causing a burst of spiritual light ripples.

The green light shield was hit twice in a row before it shattered.

At this moment, Jiang Ming finally reacted. He turned around in horror and looked around the courtyard. He shouted with a frightened expression, “Who’s there?”

"We struck gold, indeed!”

In the darkness, a burly figure slowly walked out. One of his eyes was a milky gray. He was clearly blind in that eye. He was playing with a black flying sword in his hand.

The flying sword returned without success. However, the one-eyed man did not look surprised. Instead, his eyes were filled with greed as he glanced at Jiang Ming.

If Jiang Ming could afford a protective talisman, it was clear he was quite well off.

The one-eyed man seemed to smile, and behind him, two figures slowly walked in, blocking Jiang Ming’s retreat.

On one side of the courtyard wall was a petite woman vigilantly observing the surroundings. A yellow rope slowly floated around her.

"She’s quite vigilant.” Jiang Ming glanced at the woman and frowned slightly.

However, it was fine. He could kill them all easily.

These people were all in the middle stage of the Qi Refinement Realm. Only the one-eyed man’s aura was very close to the late stage of the Qi Refinement Realm. However, he was nothing in Jiang Ming’s eyes.

However, before he made a move, he had to make sure that there was no one else behind these people.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ming’s heart calmed down slightly. He looked at the one-eyed man, and his eyes seemed to flash with panic. However, he pretended to be calm and said, “This is the talisman that my hall master gave me. I am a member of the Plant Hall. Don’t mess with me or Xiaoqian Mountain hunt you down!”

"Ha! Nothing’s going to happen to me. Xiaoqian Mountain isn’t going to care about a runt like you. I’ll be a thousand miles away before they even notice you’re dead.”

"A thousand miles?” Jiang Ming guessed that these people were not part of a crime organization. They were probably individual thugs who were hired by another party.

As the one-eyed man spoke, he was also carefully observing the person in front of him. Did he have any other tricks up his sleeve?

In their line of work, they had to be bold to rob the people from the Plant Hall. However, they also had to be careful in order to prevent any accidents.

However, the other party’s panicked expression made the one-eyed man’s heart calm down. It seemed that he was not that strong. Today, they were going to make a fortune.

They chose Jiang Ming because they had investigated him. He was a mid-stage Qi Refinement Realm cultivator who was lucky enough to join the Plant Hall. Besides his mastery of the Misty Rain Technique, he was nothing special.

The one-eyed man grinned predatorily. The flying sword in his hand turned into a black light and shot toward Jiang Ming.

The perpetrators were all sure Jiang Ming was going to die.

However, a soft sound was heard, and a small black shield appeared in front of Jiang Ming. It spun and accurately blocked the flying sword.

The flying sword and the shield collided. Jiang Ming, who was behind the shield, turned pale and his body seemed to be shaking slightly.

"He has many things we can sell! Everyone, attack!” The one-eyed man’s gaze turned cold, and his flying sword shot out once more.

This time, even the woman on the courtyard wall made her move. She threw the rope at Jiang Ming.

The other two also started attacking Jiang Ming.

No matter how hard the Mystic Water Shield was, it could not block all the attacks.

However, in the midst of the battle, Jiang Ming was cursing himself.

Was his acting not good enough? He thought he had been playing the role of a poor cultivator quite well!

He sighed internally.

He calculated how much he would make if he killed the perpetrators and sold their belongings. He would probably make fifty spirit stones at most. e. c

Jiang Ming suddenly sympathized with these people. It seemed that life in the immortal cultivation world was not easy. Look at what they had been forced into.
