The sword stopped in mid-air.
The ones who stopped the sword's edge were four people, no, five people—
Or should I say six...?
Gongyi Shuiqing reacted quickly and stopped the sword in mid-air.
Lian Shuiyin and Lian Kongyu blocked the sword from the left and right——
Lian Qianying also subconsciously used a technique that he had not formally used for a long time -
At the same time, Chu Moyin stood there.
It is not the party that hurts others, but the party that resists the harm.
"I was afraid it was unsafe, so I kept following Xiao Dongxia." Chu Moyin sneered, "If you really had the guts, you should have stepped forward to challenge her. What's the point of stabbing someone in the back?"
The man whose sword was blocked had an extremely ugly expression on his face, and now he wanted to retreat, but his movements were restrained.
He never expected that so many people would come out to stop him.
What was even more terrifying was that the one who actually controlled his movements, making him unable to move at all, was actually—
He was actually concentrating on the magic and seemed unable to distract himself from Chu Shangli for even half a minute.
Her eyes opened, one hand still casting spells towards the sword forge, while the other hand blocked his sword with the back of her hand in mid-air.
"It seems like you were a little surprised and I stopped you in your tracks."
Chu Shangli said lightly with a contemptuous smile on his lips.
"Why... can you still move? If you can't move, at least I can rely on the surprise attack, but - you defended yourself, it's really -"
Unbelievable.
No, it was simply too much common sense that he had learned.
When one's mental strength is highly concentrated, if one is distracted, one's spirit will be burned out, but she acted as if nothing had happened.
"Could it be that—you've been deceiving us from the beginning, only pretending to cast a spell but actually doing nothing?"
"Ah, ah, ah." Chu Shangli shook his head and smiled bitterly, "Uncle Gongyi, such a person is actually a disciple of your Gongyi sect. Don't you feel a little embarrassed?"
Before Gongyi Tianhe could reply, Lian Shuiyin snorted coldly, "Of course it's embarrassing. You didn't study the technique well, and when you saw such a determined master, you didn't strive for progress, but instead plotted against her. If you kill her here, where will the reputation of our Gongyi family be?"
"It's better to say that keeping her will destroy the reputation of the Gongyi family."
The assassin frowned and said, "She came here to fight Young Master Gongyi. You've all seen her strength. In three days, Young Master Gongyi will undoubtedly lose—and she possesses sword-making skills far superior to anyone in our Gongyi family. If we keep a woman like her, how will others view our Gongyi family in the future? They'll surely think we have no followers, right? But now, while she's still relatively unknown, kill her, and the world will never know she even exists."
"Tian Ning!" Gong Yi Shui Qing shouted angrily—
His attitude shocked everyone.
No one had ever seen Gong Yi Shui Qing lose his temper like this—
Lian Tianning's mind went blank, and he shuddered: "Master, are you angry?"
"Of course! What's your plan for becoming the top leader? Do you think you can become the top leader by killing everyone who came before you? Have you never thought about becoming the top leader through your own efforts?"
"Of course I want to rely on hard work! But, there are some gaps in talent that can't be made up for by hard work!"
