Chapter 542: Chapter 542 Fighting While Commentating

Dusk fell, and the moon was obscured by the night’s darkness.

Hua Miaofu sat in the store, restless in spirit.

The spiritual sense of a cultivator made her anxious and uneasy.

But upon careful reflection, Hua Miaofu couldn’t find any oversight.

She had always been careful and cautious, so it seemed impossible that anything could go wrong.

As Hua Miaofu paced back and forth in the room, she suddenly heard a faint sound.

"Who’s there?"

"I’m telling you to be careful, why are you still getting caught? You can easily startle the snake like this, you know. How did you become so lax? No wonder you can’t protect your junior sister," Gong Qiming rambled on, while Yan Sinian only responded with two words.

"Shut up!"

Accompanying the shout was a blast of Sword Qi.

In midair, it coalesced into a scalpel-like shape, emitting a piercing sound as it sliced through the air.

Hua Miaofu dodged immediately, her veil slashed fiercely by the scalpel, leaving a bloody mark on her face.

Hua Miaofu’s lips were a shocking shade of purple, as if she had been poisoned.

She recognized Yan Sinian and her expression contorted into something ferocious.

"How did you find me?"

Yan Sinian showed no intent to clarify, as countless strands of Sword Qi surged forward.

Hua Miaofu lunged for the table, where a crystal ball shimmered with a ghostly blue glow.

In an instant, space twisted, and it seemed as if the Sword Qi was absorbed by something, disappearing without a trace.

"Can you even do this right? You’re only getting worse," Gong Qiming said with evident disdain, hurling a bunch of messy talismans.

They ignited spontaneously in the air, summoning the phantom images of various ancient beasts that roared and charged towards Hua Miaofu.

Yan Sinian’s eyes shone with contempt, as if mocking Gong Qiming for becoming a talisman maker instead of a proper Artifact Refiner.

Gong Qiming spat out several times in disgust.

"You know we’re pressed for time, right? Do you think Artifact Refining is something you can just do when you feel like it? The fact that I can do this much is already a sign of exceptional talent," he retorted.

Yan Sinian: "Heh."

Gong Qiming, frustrated, wished he could throw all the remaining talismans in his arms at Yan Sinian.

Hua Miaofu was greatly shocked. She had, in fact, considered the possibility of being discovered by Yan Sinian and had made some preparations.

But she hadn’t expected him to bring an Artifact Refiner with him as well.

From the spiritual energy fluctuations of the talismans, it was evident the opponent’s skills were even more profound than her own.

Yet he was just a youth.

The crystal ball shattered abruptly, and Hua Miaofu could hardly hold on.

Yan Sinian’s Sword Qi, as expected, became increasingly fierce in its assault.

Hua Miaofu clenched her teeth and suddenly drew a sword from beneath the table.

The sword was covered in rust and bore marks of oxidation, but it emitted a vast and profound sword intent in a split second.

The Sword Qi from Yan Sinian was spontaneously accommodated by the Rusty Sword, its spots of rust gradually turning into a metallic sharpness.

Gong Qiming exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, this sword’s got some kick! Who knows which powerful figure left it behind. It still has sword intent on it, tsk tsk. You’ve certainly met your match now. This thing must have been forged when Spiritual Energy was abundant, and though its sword intent may not compare to your former strength, it’s still much stronger than you are now."

Yan Sinian furrowed his brows, realizing that Hua Miaofu had been prepared all along, likely having figured out how to deal with him.

If he hadn’t brought Gong Qiming along, today could have turned out much worse for him.

With Sword Qi broken, Gong Qiming’s talismans saw their opportunity and struck.

One latched onto Hua Miaofu’s shoulder.

Hua Miaofu endured the agony that felt as if her heart was being torn apart, not knowing from where she produced an embroidered ball and threw it furiously at Gong Qiming.

The resentment contained within the embroidered ball hit them with full force, filling the room with the sound of a young girl’s wails and screams.

Gong Qiming, however, appeared thrilled. "This object is an old relic, full of vindictiveness. It’s perfect for evil cultivators to use for Artifact Refining. It even has a curse attached to it. It’s truly an essential product for murder and plunder."

Yan Sinian had enough, "Are you here to commentate today?"
