"Su Hu!"
"yes!"
Su Hu walked over quickly.
Su Jinxia extended her palm.
Su Hu instantly understood and placed the sword in Su Jinxia's hand.
Su Jin drew his longsword, the tip pointing directly at Shen Qianxue's throat. Shen Qianxue was forced to take two steps back by the sharp blade.
Su Jin raised her arrogant eyes and said fiercely, "Today I will kill her, and anyone who stands in my way will be my enemy!"
"Ah Jin!" Shen Qianxue cried out in pain.
"Su Hu, stop him!"
"yes!"
Su Hu took a step and stood in front of Shen Qianxue.
Su Jinxia stepped out of their range, sword in hand, and a chilling killing intent swept over Yang Jiaoruo.
Yang Jiaoruo stared at Shen Qianxue's back, her eyes filled with struggle and confusion. When she sensed Su Jinxia's killing intent, she couldn't help but feel a chill in her heart. Su Jinxia's strength was too terrifying. She might really not be able to escape death today.
Su Jinxia noticed Yang Jiaoruo's fear and sneered, "Weren't you very powerful? What? Scared? Cowardly? I can give you a chance to defeat me without using the power of the Gu Mother. If you can kill me, I'll accompany you on your journey to the Yellow Springs!"
This statement is utterly arrogant!
It seemed that Yang Jiaoruo was no match for Su Jinxia in terms of force alone, and it seemed that even if Su Jinxia died, Yang Jiaoruo would not be able to leave Liuli Mountain alive.
Yang Jiaoruo gritted her teeth and snorted coldly, "How arrogant!"
Su Jin had only been learning martial arts for a little over two years, and even with thirty years of internal energy, she was no match for Yang Jiaoruo.
Yang Jiaoruo had this confidence.
Moreover, once Su Jin dies, Liuli Mountain might not be able to stop her and Shen Qianxue!
Yang Jiaoruo raised her sword, pointing it at Su Jinxia, her chilling killing intent pouring out, "Fine, I'd like to see whether you die or I die today!"
As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Jiaoruo brandished her sword, creating a series of intricate sword flourishes, and launched an attack on Su Jin.
It's the Phoenix Cry Sword Technique!
Su Jin tilted her head slightly, curled her lips in disdain, raised her sword, and engaged Yang Jiaoruo in battle with even more exquisite swordsmanship.
It's the same Phoenix Cry Sword Technique!
But the difference in quality is immediately apparent!
Su Jin's internal energy comes from the Lonely Shadow Heart Method. After more than a year of accumulation, it has become more powerful and magnificent. Her Phoenix Cry Sword Technique was personally taught by Shen Qianxue, and she has a deeper understanding of it than Yang Jiaoruo.
In just ten moves, Yang Jiaoruo was at a disadvantage and could only barely withstand Su Jinxia's attacks!
Today, Su Jinxia had no mood to play house with Yang Jiaoruo, and directly took advantage of the moment when her swordsmanship was in disarray to unleash a killing move.
Yang Jiaoruo's sword flew out of the courtyard, and she looked at her hand in disbelief.
More than a year ago, when she sparred with Su Jin, Su Jin couldn't beat her, but now her martial arts skills far surpass hers.
How could that be!
How could that be!
Yang Jiaoruo didn't believe it, and the coldness in her eyes gradually turned into madness. Suddenly, her eyes turned bloodshot, and she swung her bare fists at him.
Su Jin slashed with her sword, the tip grazing her arm and tearing a long gash from which blood gushed out.
"Ah!" Yang Jiaoruo cried out in pain and took a few steps back.
Shen Qianxue took a deep breath, but suppressed her impulse when she saw the chilling hatred in Su Jinxia's eyes.
Su Jinxia drew her sword and pressed it towards Yang Jiaoruo, "This sword is to repay you for poisoning me!"
Yang Jiaoruo gritted her teeth in hatred, her eyes bloodshot as she charged forward, yelling, "I'll fight you to the death!"
She lunged forward, but Su Jinxia swung his sword again, this time with a chilling aura. Before Yang Jiaoruo could even get close to Su Jinxia, she was sent flying, the sword energy slicing a longer and deeper wound across her chest.
"ah!"
Yang Jiaoruo clutched her chest and knelt down on the ground. It hurt so much!
The scorching heat of the sword energy made the wound burn, and blood instantly soaked through his clothes.
Su Jin continued to press forward, "This sword strike is to repay you for all the things you did to me during the mountain-protecting formation."
As soon as he finished speaking, another sword strike landed, the force of which sent Yang Jiaoruo sprawling to the ground.
"This sword is to repay you for the harm you caused my father and mother today!"
Su Jin lowered the sword tip to Yang Jiaoruo's head, "You keep saying I'm ruthless and vicious, a snake in the heart. Today I'll show you what true ruthlessness is!"
Yang Jiaoruo trembled all over in pain, lying prostrate on the ground, no longer able to resist or utter a word!
"Go to hell!"
Su Jinxia, like a ruler proclaiming death, stood high above, raising her sword and thrusting it down, her target Yang Jiaoruo's neck.
Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed before her eyes, and the sword was in Shen Qianxue's hand.
Su Jinxia slightly raised her head to look into Shen Qianxue's eyes, exuding a chilling and dangerous aura. "You're stopping me again?"
Shen Qianxue handed the sword to Su Jinxia with the hilt facing forward, saying, "If you insist on striking again, then I will take the blow for her."
Su Jin tilted her head slightly, her eyes filled with stubbornness, madness, hatred, and grievance. "Are you threatening me by taking advantage of my feelings for you?"
Shen Qianxue's thin lips were pressed tightly together, turning pale. He looked away somewhat awkwardly, but his body remained motionless.
"This is my killing move. Are you sure you want to take it for her sake?" Su Jinxia's voice was full of danger, as if Su Jinxia would kill Shen Qianxue if he dared to answer!
Shen Qianxue's eyes shimmered with a gentle light. "Would you... kill me?"
Su Jin gritted her teeth, her chin raised, her face full of stubbornness, and a ruthless and resolute look gradually appeared in her eyes. "I will not kill you. If you insist on taking her away, then our relationship is over, and we will have no further connection!"
Threatening someone—who can't do that?
Shen Qianxue was stunned for a moment, then his chest heaved violently, and a deep knot formed between his brows. After a long while, he showed weakness and evaded the issue, saying, "You are too emotional right now, so I won't argue with you. I'll come to find you another day."
Shen Qianxue hurriedly avoided Su Jinxia's eyes and turned to pick up Yang Jiaoruo, who was already on the verge of death.
Su Jin down...
Even at this point, he still wanted to protect Yang Jiaoruo!
Su Jin's eyes reddened, and she said harshly, "There's no need to come again. I don't need you!"
Shen Qianxue froze, his muscles beneath his clothes taut like stone. He strode away, as if he hadn't heard Su Jin's resolute and harsh words.
That retreating figure—was it fleeing, or simply no longer having any attachment?
Everything fell silent again. Su Jin stood there, head slightly lowered, all her imposing aura gone, her black clothes seemingly blending into the night...
"Ah Jin, are you alright?" Su Hu walked over and looked at Su Jin with concern.
Su Jin remained silent, lost in her own sorrow, until her father walked out of the room and called out tremblingly, "A-Jin?"
Su Jin's lower gaze shifted, and she looked up at her father, who was leaning against the door frame and looked even older.
It's been over a year since I last saw my father, and he has really aged a lot.
Su Jin walked over quickly and took her father's arm, saying, "Let's go inside and talk."
The two then returned to the house, and Zhou Chen quickly lit the lamp.
Su Jin checked on her mother and found that she had just fainted but was otherwise unharmed. However, her father had injured his leg.
Su Jinxia recalled that her father had died from a leg injury in her previous life, and she couldn't help but feel a pang of panic.
Fortunately, it was just a fall, not a broken leg. With proper rest and recovery, I'll be fine.
