Chapter 982: Corpse Soul Sword
Zhou Ran followed him all the way and left the city.
Although that man was also a strong man, he was far inferior to Zhou Ran. Zhou Ran concealed his aura, and the man could not detect it at all.
Zhou Ran followed closer and knew from the man's back that he was actually Yin Tianjiao, the master of the Sword Sect Hall he had met today.
Not only that, the people Yin Tianjiao was twisting on his hands were all dead, and they had just died.
Zhou Ran's face darkened, knowing that this matter was no small matter.
Yin Tianjiao came to a few miles outside the city and then stopped.
Afterwards, Yin Tianjiao placed the body he brought on the ground and took out his long sword.
The long sword was unsheathed, and there were ghostly shadows on the sword, and it rushed straight towards the corpse lying on the ground.
Among the ghostly figures, one of the corpses was devoured soon and turned into a pile of skeletons.
Zhou Ran had been watching not far away, and when he saw the scene in front of him, he knew that the master of the Sword Sect Hall was not a man of faith.
Ordinary swordsmen use Qi to nourish their swords. The stronger they are, the stronger their swords will be.
But Yin Tianjiao used the corpse of an adult man to raise his sword. The sword in his hand was undoubtedly an evil sword.
Under Zhou Ran's gaze, the corpses brought by Yin Tianjiao were all absorbed by the evil sword and turned into bones.
Yin Tianjiao felt quite satisfied. He looked at the sword in his hand with confidence.
After absorbing several corpses, this evil sword bloomed with dazzling light.
"I will definitely win this sword festival!" Yin Tianjiao said proudly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a voice rang in his ear.
"You are wrong! You can never become a strong person by turning human life into your own strength."
Yin Tianjiao was shocked and looked around hastily.
Zhou Ran walked out from behind a big tree and came to Yin Tianjiao step by step.
Yin Tianjiao looked at Zhou Ran in astonishment. This person had been peeking beside him, but he didn't notice it at all.
"Who are you?" Yin Tianjiao's lips trembled.
"You have no right to know who I am." Zhou Ran said coldly, "As the master of the Sword Sect, you kill people and use corpses to feed your swords. This kind of behavior is unacceptable! I will take you back and give an explanation to the dead! "
"Just you?"
Yin Tianjiao snorted coldly.
He had just finished eating his Soul Sword, so how could he be afraid of the person in front of him?
"You seem to be a strong man too. In that case, sacrifice your life to honor my spiritual sword!"
With that said, Yin Tianjiao rushed towards Zhou Ran.
The corpse sword swallowed up a lot of life, and its power was at its peak. The dancing sword flower brought with it waves of ghosts, all of which opened their teeth and claws, wanting to swallow Zhou Ran in one bite.
Facing Yin Tianjiao's attack, Zhou Ran remained motionless.
Zhou Ran didn't take action until the sword's edge was only an inch away from him.
With a slight pinch of his fingers, the Corpse Soul Sword was clamped down by Zhou Ran.
"What!"
Yin Tianjiao was shocked. This guy was able to neutralize the attack of the Soul Sword with just two fingers. This was incredible.
Zhou Ran's two fingers not only prevented the Soul Sword from making further progress, but even the ghosts lingering on the Soul Sword were all afraid of moving forward, completely losing their previous arrogance.
"Go!"
Zhou Ran loosened his fingers and flicked the sword's edge.
The huge force caused the Corpse Soul Sword to escape from Yin Tianjiao's hand, and Yin Tianjiao also stumbled.
Nearly fell.
The leader of the Sword Sect looked at the enemy in front of him in astonishment.
You can't see this person's strength with the naked eye, and you are no match for him.
Zhou Ran picked up the corpse sword that fell on the ground and approached Yin Tianjiao step by step.
"Follow me into the city!"
Zhou Ran showed a fierce look on his face and did not allow Yin Tianjiao to refute.
Yin Tianjiao couldn't help but retreat. He knew that he was no match for Zhou Ran.
But even so, Yin Tianjiao still had a smile on his lips.
"You want to catch me? It's not that easy!" With that said, Yin Tianjiao put an arrow into the air, which made a sweet sound. "Don't think you have won. I am the master of the Sword Sect. I have made great contributions to Shang Guo. How can the people of Jiuqu City believe the words of an outsider?"
The reason why Yin Tianjiao fired the command arrow was to force Zhou Ran back.
But Zhou Ran remained motionless and had no intention of leaving.
"It's really interesting. I have already fired the command arrow, and the Lord of Jiuqu City is here in a blink of an eye, but you still don't run away? Even if you are powerful, you can't beat a group of people, right?"
Yin Tianjiao gritted his teeth, but Zhou Ran still stood there, which surprised Yin Tianjiao.
Not long after, Qu Yang, the lord of Jiuqu City, arrived with his people.
When Qu Yang saw the bones on the ground, he was immediately frightened.
"Hall Master Yin, what's going on?"
Yin Tianjiao pretended to be innocent, pointed at Zhou Ran and said: "This person practiced magic and abducted adult men from Jiuqu City. He killed these people and practiced with their corpses! Thanks to my timely discovery, This is why I let you come here! This person is very powerful, I am no match for him!"
Yin Tianjiao is the master of the Sword Sect Hall, so Qu Yang naturally believes in him.
Qu Yang came to Zhou Ran, put up a posture and said: "Jiuqu City has always been peaceful, how can it tolerate evil spirits? You can't even think of leaving Jiuqu City today. You must give an explanation to the dead citizens!"
Yin Tianjiao smiled sinisterly.
Zhou Ran is indeed powerful, but facing the city lord and others of Jiuqu City, he is afraid that he would not dare to go on a killing spree.
If Zhou Ran accidentally kills Qu Yang and others, it will be exactly what he wants.
"Catch him!"
Qu Yang gave an order, and the people he brought surrounded Zhou Ran.
Zhou Ran smiled slightly, and had no intention of taking action. He just said: "City Lord, why do you believe his words? If I say that these people were killed by Yin Tianjiao, do you believe it?"
"What a joke! Yin Hall Master is a decent person, how could he kill innocent people? You are unknown, who else could be the murderer besides you?" Qu Yang looked disdainful.
Yin Tianjiao also looked like a villain who had succeeded.
Even if Zhou Ran told the truth, no one would believe it.
In any case, Zhou Ran was convicted of murder.
The corners of Zhou Ran's mouth curled up, and he said: "City Lord, if I show you evidence, will you believe me?"
"Evidence? Where did you get the evidence?"
Yin Tianjiao laughed.
There is no evidence, Zhou Ran has no way to prove his innocence, and the evidence is simply alarmist.
Zhou Ran ignored Yin Tianjiao and took out the Corpse Soul Sword in his hand.
"This sword should be yours, right? Corpses can't talk, but swords can. It's obvious whether you killed someone!"
"What? The sword can talk?"
Yin Tianjiao was stunned and didn't understand what Zhou Ran said at all.
Zhou Ran was unambiguous. He exhaled his spiritual energy and the soul in the Corpse Soul Sword was forced out.
