The figure came so fast that before everyone present could even react, the sword light was already in front of them. It was not until then that Lu Junran could see Mu Hanyan's face clearly.
"Mu Hanyan, it's you!" Hatred and anger burned in Lu Junran's eyes.
He casually swung his sword to push Ye Fengyun back, and with a twist of his wrist, the wind dragon phantom roared and rushed towards Mu Hanyan.
The energy bursts were like blade winds, and the sound of the dragon's roar turned into a loud bang. There was a flash of light in front of his eyes, and the shadow of the wind dragon was shattered by Mu Hanyan's sword and disappeared in the endless fog. Lu Junran was also shocked and took several steps back before he could barely stand firm.
Lu Junran gritted his teeth and raised his sword again.
"stop!"
"Stop!" Zhuang Ping'an and others arrived at this time and shouted loudly when they saw the situation.
Like Lu Junran, Zhuang Pingan was also a swordsman from Western Qin. However, he had been famous for many years and was a descendant of the royal family, so he was extremely prestigious. Although Lu Junran's face was full of hatred, he subconsciously stopped when he heard Zhuang Pingan's shout.
"Senior Brother Ye, how are you?" Mu Hanyan helped Ye Fengyun up and asked with concern.
Although Lu Junran's previous sword strike had changed its target due to her presence, the casual swing still caused Ye Fengyun's internal organs to rupture and spit blood. It was no wonder; the difference between a ninth-level swordsman and a great swordsman might seem like only one level, but in reality, it was a world of difference. Ye Fengyun had already been injured by the previous sword strike, yet he charged forward again in anger without taking any elixirs or practicing Qigong. It would be strange if he emerged unscathed.
"No...it's nothing serious." When Ye Fengyun suddenly saw Mu Hanyan and remembered his previous loss of composure, he felt a little embarrassed. It felt like the secret hidden in his heart had been discovered.
"Take the pill first." Mu Hanyan took out a pill and handed it to Ye Fengyun.
His injuries weren't too severe, so there was no need for Ye Yanran to use the Tianlin Divine Healing Technique. Firstly, the Tianlin Divine Healing Technique was extremely depleting, and Ye Yanran was already exhausted after walking all the way here. Secondly, the Tianlin Divine Healing Technique wasn't very effective for healing ordinary people, and wasn't much stronger than the elixir she had.
Ye Fengyun was feeling embarrassed, so he quickly took the pill and swallowed it, then practiced qigong and breathing to refine the pill's power.
"Lu Junran, what's going on?" Seeing that Ye Fengyun was safe and sound, Zhuang Ping'an breathed a sigh of relief and questioned Lu Junran.
"Brother Zhuang, haven't you seen it all? As the saying goes, the treasures of heaven and earth belong to those who are capable. With his strength, how could he be qualified to own the Destiny Star Plate, so I just snatched it away to use." Lu Junran said righteously.
He was a little afraid of Zhuang Ping'an, only because Zhuang Ping'an had become famous at a young age and had accumulated prestige over the years. But then he changed his mind and remembered that he was now also a master at the level of a great swordsman, so why should he be afraid of him? So he became arrogant again.
"Shut up. The continent is in danger. We cultivators from various countries should be in the same boat. How can you do such a thing of bullying the weak?" Seeing that he dared to talk back, Zhuang Ping'an became even more angry.
"Hmph, you also said that it was bullying. In our Holy Court Continent, the strong have been respected since ancient times, and this is even more so in troubled times. Even if I bullied him, I can only blame his own lack of strength." Lu Junran said arrogantly.
"What a saying that the strong are respected. In other words, I am stronger than you, so you deserve to be bullied?" Mu Hanyan became more and more angry as she listened, and said with a cold face.
"Mu Hanyan, don't think that just because you defeated me last time, you can always step on my head and bully me. I am not afraid of you now!" Lu Junran said with a sneer.
When he was defeated by Mu Hanyan, he was ridiculed and regarded this defeat as the greatest humiliation in his life. He even dreamed of revenge. God had eyes and awakened his bloodline. His desire for revenge became even stronger. It was only because Mu Hanyan went to the Holy Court that he took out his resentment on Ye Fengyun.
"Really? Then do you want to fight again?" Mu Hanyan reached out and grasped the hilt of the sword.
She could see that although Ye Fengyun had a conflict with Lu Junran because of the Destiny Star Plate, what really made him fight to the death was the insult Lu Junran said to her, so she also made up her mind to avenge Ye Fengyun.
"That's exactly what I meant!" Lu Junran straightened his neck and said without hesitation.
"Shut up! Lu Junran, do you know what you are saying? Why don't you apologize to Young Master Mu!" Zhuang Ping'an was shocked when he heard Lu Junran's words and said quickly.
Although he was somewhat displeased with Lu Junran's arrogance, they were all citizens of Xiqin after all. Moreover, Lu Junran had studied martial arts with him in the same school and he even called him his senior brother. Naturally, he didn't want Lu Junran to be ruined by Mu Hanyan's hands.
Sang Qinghe and the others were slightly stunned, looking at Lu Junran like he was an idiot. Who gave him the courage to actually fight Mu Hanyan? Did he really think that after awakening his bloodline and ascending to the realm of Great Swordsman, he would be invincible?
Among these more than one hundred descendants of the God's Guardians, each one has awakened bloodline, and there are also many masters at the level of great swordsmen. However, after going through many trials in the Holy Court and witnessing Mu Hanyan's power with their own eyes, who would dare to fight Mu Hanyan?
Seeking death! Looking at Lu Junran's arrogant look, everyone had the same thought in their hearts.
"Mu Hanyan, draw your sword. Today, I will let you see how powerful I am!" Lu Junran drew out his sword.
Zhuang Ping'an shook his head and was too lazy to try to persuade him anymore. He actually felt a little funny in his heart. He had seen arrogant people before, but this was the first time he had seen someone so arrogant and ignorant.
"No need, just do it." Mu Hanyan looked at Lu Junran with contempt, her hand still firmly on the hilt of the sword.
"Mu Hanyan, that sword strike just now was just because you took advantage of me when I was unprepared. This time, don't even think about taking advantage of me!" Lu Junran was enraged by the contempt and arrogance in Mu Hanyan's eyes, and roared wildly.
This time, not only Zhuang Ping'an found it amusing, but even Sang Qinghe and the others wanted to laugh. Indeed, Mu Hanyan's sword strike was indeed too sudden, and it did catch Lu Junran off guard. However, he forgot that Mu Hanyan and the others had come a long way and were already exhausted. They had just rushed all the way here, and their hasty attack could not bring out their full strength.
Mu Hanyan didn't gain any advantage at all. Lu Junran couldn't even think of this. He deserved to be tortured to death.
"You talk too much nonsense." Mu Hanyan said in a disdainful voice. She had no interest in talking nonsense with Lu Junran at all.
"Wind Dragon, sword dance!" Lu Junran's face darkened and he swung out with all his strength.
The sword light swept through the air and condensed into a huge blue dragon, which let out angry roars.
With this sword, Lu Junran put all his strength into it, and at the same time, he poured out all his hatred. The hatred and murderous intent contained in the roar of the blue dragon even frightened Zhuang Pingan and others.
