Although she felt a little curious and puzzled, that was all she was. Whether she knew the answer or not was irrelevant to Mu Hanyan. How could she possibly let Chen Xuefeng go just because of this? She had witnessed the cruelty and ruthlessness of the Blood Wind Bandits with her own eyes. If she let them go, who knew how many innocent people would fall victim to their murderous hands in the future. Even if she didn't have a compassionate heart for the world, Miss Mu didn't want to be the villain.
"Well, as long as you can defeat me fairly and without relying on that sacrificial pet, I will answer all your questions. If you lose, let me go." Chen Xuefeng knew that Mu Hanyan would not let him go so easily, and he had already thought of a countermeasure.
At this time, he also saw the symbol of an eighth-level divine priest on Mu Hanyan's robe, and felt a little strange. He remembered that the last time he saw Mu Hanyan, apart from her powerful martial arts skills, her priest level did not seem to be high. How could she reach the eighth level so quickly? However, with his strength, he was still very confident in dealing with an eighth-level priest.
"Do you really think I dare not kill you?" Mu Hanyan raised her eyebrows and said threateningly, and the long sword in her hand slightly stabbed forward.
"I've already said it, if I had known this would be the outcome, you can kill me if you want. But if you kill me, I'm afraid the things you want to ask won't be answered." A trace of blood seeped from Chen Xuefeng's neck, but he seemed unaware of it and pretended to be fearless.
He had no idea what Mu Hanyan was going to ask, but for him, this was his only chance of survival. Like a drowning man seeing a straw, he would grab at it no matter what. Even if it meant gambling with his life, at least there was a chance of survival.
Seeing Mu Hanyan's raised brows and fierce expression, which showed that she was obviously lacking in confidence, he felt that as long as the other party dared to fight, his chances of survival would be much greater.
Seeing Chen Xuefeng's fearless look, Mu Hanyan secretly laughed in her heart. This was exactly the result she wanted. If she wanted someone like Chen Xuefeng to surrender, she had to make him convinced from the heart.
"Do you keep your word?" After hesitating for a long time, Mu Hanyan did not stab with the sword. Finally, she bit her lip and said.
"Although I, Chen Xuefeng, am not a good person, I am also a well-known figure within this area of tens of thousands of miles. Can I go back on my word?" Chen Xuefeng saw Mu Hanyan's hesitant expression and thought that she had no confidence, so he said without hesitation.
"Okay, then I will fight you fairly." Mu Hanyan retracted his sword and took a few steps back.
"Hey, little girl, since you are willing to give me a chance to live, I will also give you a chance. I will not kill you today. As long as you fulfill your promise, the grudges of Mujia Village will be wiped out from now on." Chen Xuefeng felt that his life was not in danger and said proudly.
"Thank you, but it's not necessary because you don't have the chance." Mu Hanyan said lightly.
The long sword was slowly raised, reflecting a fiery red light.
This little girl's strength seemed to be more than one might imagine. After all, having emerged from the midst of swords and sabers, Chen Xuefeng's intuition for danger was even stronger than that of many high-ranking divine priests. He immediately felt the immense pressure of the Frost Sky Sword, as well as his instinctive fear of death.
With a loud roar, the long sword slashed in the face.
Although it was just a single strike, the numerous blade shadows formed a phantom, with endless variations, similar to the form-shifting swordsmanship of high-level swordsmen. Relying solely on strength, without relying on any energy, to perform such a blade technique, Chen Xuefeng's martial arts were truly extraordinary.
In fact, this is also Chen Xuefeng's strongest fighting skill. He should have used it in the last battle against Mu Hanyan, but he was beaten by Liu Guang and fled away in panic before he could use half of the sword technique, so the subsequent changes were not used at all.
In just a moment, Mu Hanyan was enveloped by the sword shadow, and even Wen Gaoren and others could not find any flaws in it.
However, they weren't worried at all. The best way to deal with such combat skills was to suppress them directly with the powerful divine arts of the priests. In the face of sheer might, any so-called changes were superfluous. And they had no doubt that Mu Hanyan possessed such strength. The defeats of Long Wudang, Ou Mingzhi, and Xiang Qiuzhan were proof enough of this.
Although they had absolute confidence in Mu Hanyan, when the small flame appeared in their sight, several people couldn't help but wipe their foreheads.
This trick again!
By now they had roughly understood that the small flame created by the High Priestess was not meant to show weakness to the enemy, but was simply out of her control. It seemed that no matter how powerful the magic was, a small flame would appear in her hands.
I really can't understand why, with such powerful strength, she can't perform a proper priestly spell. I don't know how depressed and angry those people who were defeated by her because of their excessive joy must be.
"Hahahaha, so this is your strength, just this little bit of strength..." And when they heard Chen Xuefeng's wild laughter, which was exactly the same as that of the others, their hearts were filled with sympathy.
However, the sword she just struck attached the fire spear technique and energy to the Hanxiao Sword at the same time. When the Hanxiao Sword turned into a flaming spear, the power of the divine technique and the power of the swordsmanship erupted at the same time, and the power increased exponentially.
And this is just the result of her sword skills being greatly suppressed. If she was not a fifth-level swordsman, but a little stronger, the power would probably be more than just doubled.
It turns out that the priest's magic and the Holy Court swordsmanship can be used in this way! Before Mu Hanyan's eyes, it seemed as if a new door of cultivation had opened again, full of joy and anticipation.
Suppressing her inner excitement, Mu Hanyan secretly glanced at Wen Gaoren. Although Wen Gaoren wanted to become her disciple and learn the art of formation, she still didn't want him to discover this secret that was related to life and death.
Fortunately, apart from surprise, Mu Hanyan did not notice anything unusual in his eyes.
"Boom!" Before Chen Xuefeng could finish his words, the small flame suddenly exploded and turned into a fire spear nearly ten feet long, stabbing towards Chen Xuefeng with blazing flames.
The so-called myriad changes and the so-called numerous sword shadows were all as meaningless at this moment. Chen Xuefeng groaned and flew out heavily.
"So, this is your strength..." After a while, Chen Xuefeng struggled to sit up, his face pale and his eyes full of misery.
He finally realized how powerful the young woman before him was. Even without the pet's help, he was no match for her. His earlier promise to spare her life was a complete joke.
Mu Hanyan sheathed her sword and slowly walked towards Chen Xuefeng.
"Just ask what you want to know." Chen Xuefeng was quite straightforward. He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said to Mu Hanyan.
