Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
Li Yunniang burst out laughing. Just as she was thinking about how Zong Shou was on the brink of death and still had the heart to say jokes, in the next moment she felt a strong, sharp, piercing and steely energy, mixed with a cold killing intent, spreading over.
Li Yunniang’s heart trembled. Although this killing intent wasn’t targeting her, she still felt a chill down her spine, like a cat whose tail was stepped on, all the fur standing up.
As for Ren Qianchou and the other two, their expressions changed, not bothering to care about Chuxue as they focused their sights on that energy.
They saw several talismans burning in mid air where Zong Shou had stood, while his body had disappeared. He had turned into an invisible white shadow, swift like thunder. Only a glow appeared at the tip of his sword, a flicker of purple lightning.
This sword was quick to the extreme and also really sharp. It was like Zong Shou had gathered all his energy at the tip of the sword.
Just like the energy the three of them had felt, it was really strong, sharp, and tough, unbelievably overbearing.
Ren Qianchou’s facs changed as it instantly became ashen white. He desperately backed off, the sword in his hand turning into a million illusionary sword shadows as he tried to go all out to block it.
He was called the Deceitful Sword, as when he struck out he was really unpredictable. Every time he would attack where people didn’t expect, and he had always been proud of that.
However at that moment he hated his sword path. In front of this sharp and barbaric sword skill, he had no way to defend!
No changes, just the most simple stab! But when this sword struck, it was like a shooting star. No matter how many sword images he made appear, that sword still pierced through without stopping.
“That is sword strength! No, it should be sword sense! Wait no, it actually is sword rhythm…”
This Zong Shou was obviously only an eight meridian Mythic Master even after he exploded. But in that moment it felt like an Xiantian Master was striking him.
It was unstoppable!
Just as that flashing cold sword tip was an inch away from his throat, a look of joy appeared on Ren Qianchou’s face.
At the last moment he grasped the sword path of this sword. His entire body felt relaxed, numerous sweat beads excreted out of his body.
And then his eyes constricted to pinpoints. Zong Shou’s sword flashed with lightning as the sword speed increased by ten times instantly.
It pierced through that less than an inch of space and stabbed into his throat.
Ren Qianchou could even clearly hear the loud “gechi” when the sword entered his throat, and that lightning which caused his blood and flesh to explode and tear apart.
A destructive spiral energy charged into his body and destroyed his life force. There was also a whirlpool which swallowed his Essence energy, all his energy vanishing without a trace.
His knees went weak and Ren Qianchou knelt down in front of Zong Shou.
At that moment, the four people within the forest were still as statues as they stood rooted to the ground.
Li Yunniang’s mouth was agape, the mocking smile from before even didn’t have time to fade. Her eyes didn’t move as she looked at Zong Shou, like her eyeballs were about to drop out.
The Mist Sword and Rage Sword were only able to move a hundred feet, before being unable to move further.
They were locked down by Zong Shou, a cold killing intent piercing right at their minds. It felt like as long as they tried to move another step, Zong Shou’s fierce and indiscernible sword would strike them.
Lian Fan was expressionless, but within his heart were roaring waves.
He gritted his teeth. The pain from it told him that this wasn’t a dream.
When he was sent by Xu Zhengyuan to be Zong Shou’s servant, he didn’t understand. But he was a man of few words, not a person who went against the orders of his master, so he barely followed along. The good grace he owed could be said to have been paid off.
Only now, after personally witnessing this scene, did he finally know the reason. Xu Zhengyuan sent him under the Gantian Mountain Prince, not to send him to his death, but because he wanted to give him a future.
Using a eighth grade Mythic Master body, one sword killed the Deceitful Sword, Ren Qianchou, who had comprehended sword strength, on the spot.
No wonder Liancheng, who represented Xu Zhengyuan that day, was so respectful towards this Prince.
He suddenly felt it amusing. Before this, he felt Zong Shou’s actions were weird, but now he understood his feelings.
A short moment ago those four were so excited and happy, discussing how to torture him to death. In a short moment, Ren Qianchou’s throat was cut and he was dead.
In this world, was there anything more funny than this?
In Zong Shou’s eyes these four were no different from clowns. Although the words they said were really terrifying, it could just make people laugh.
At that moment they were only weird, that sword that exploded out of Zong Shou’s hands had the ability to kill peak Xiantian masters…
Zong Shou held the swords, feeling that the Essence energy sucked out had reached the max he could control before pulling out. Allowing Ren Qianchou pressed into his opened throat without caring.
Turning around and looking at Yun Tao nearby, “You are called Rage Sword, so why are you not angry?”
Yun Tao’s eyes turned red, and he howled, waving the giant sword in his hand to come charging over with large steps. The wind ruffled as he angrily slashed down.
As for that Mist Sword Xie Jun, he had another reaction. His body floated backwards as he fled into the distance without even turning his head.
Zong Shou laughed softly, casually waving his sleeve. A cold glow shot out, before he stabbed out with his sword. This time it was indiscernible and changing, unlike the sharpness from before.
Human like the cloud, sword like the mist. In the eyes of Li Yunniang and Lian Fan, one turned into two, two turned into four, difficult to tell its true from.
Just as a dazzled look appeared in Yun Tao’s eyes, a sword image pierced out from the cloud and stabbed softly through his left chest and heart. His giant sword slashed heavily into the ground with a loud keng .
As for Yun Tao, he immediately stopped, using the sword to support his body as blood flowed out like a fountain from his chest. His eyes were wide open, staring like he was going to remember this teen forever.
Li Yunniang could only feel her entire body turning cold, totally unable to believe her eyes.
Was this the Zong Shou that she deemed rubbish, the one she mocked these ten days, but who didn’t get angry at all?
Did the head of the Yunxia Seven Swords, Deceitful Sword Ren Qianchou and Rage Sword Yun Tao, who were famous in Donglin Cloud Continent, die just like that?
Was she in a dream where all these people were acting for her?
She subconsciously looked towards that Mist Sword Xie Jun. This look sent a cold chill down her spine.
A white light was chasing the frantically escaping back of the man.
It was totally silent, like a dream and an illusion. No matter how Xie Jun tried to escape, that thing was getting closer.
He suddenly twisted his body in mid-air and used an unbelievable move to turn south. But in the next moment that white light did the same, not only staying close, but also getting closer.
“It’s a flying knife. A flying knife changing direction…”
Li Yunniang’s face was white like paper, unknowingly using her hands to grip her robe. She used too much strength and nearly tore the cloth.
She didn’t dare to imagine what would happen if that knife was heading towards her.
In that moment, that white light suddenly exploded with a bright glow. A really strong intent descended onto the forest.
That Xie Jun exclaimed in fear at the same time. “Sword intent?! How can it be the Shocking Cloud God-Destroying sword-”
Before he could finish, there was a sharp ting . Li Yunniang only saw Xie Jun, along with his sword, heavily pinned beneath a tree.
There was no sound from him, who knew whether he was dead or alive. At that moment, she could only feel that her entire brain was empty, she didn’t know how to react.
She also couldn’t help but recall a few days ago when Liancheng knelt down and said those words to him.
“…when Prince takes control of Gantian Mountain if you want to conquer Donglin, our Cloud Saint City will follows all your orders! We will help Prince sweep Donglin…”
Before this, she found those words funny, but now she had no intention of laughing, her heart had tightened up.
Three peak Xiantians couldn’t even last ten breaths and had all died. How could she still laugh?
She remembered that the Gantian Mountain Zong Shi reached Xiantian not long ago at twenty. The current Zong Shou was only thirteen and could go up against peak Xiantian masters!
With such ability, couldn’t he easily take control of Gantian Mountain? If a few more years passed, he could sweep Donglin Cloud Continent.
No wonder even someone as proud as Xu Zhengyuan would go under him.
What about herself? What was she? A joke?
Since he had such strong ability, then why did he hide it? Couldn’t he do what he wished and join any sect he want?
Nineteen Spirit Houses, Ten Shrines would all go all out to recruit him!
There was also that sword intent!
When he used the flying knife to kill Yun Tao, it was the Shocking Cloud God-Destroying sword intent!
That last sword also showed sword rhythm. But that martial intent was as profound as when Xiantian or Martial Ancestors fought.
It was the sword rhythm level, but it seemed much higher. Two different kinds of sword paths in one body, both with high comprehension and which could be used interchangeably without problems.
Li Yunniang could only feel like she was going to go crazy. What kind of monster was standing in front of her eyes?
