But who could have imagined that Qu Fengting would betray them as well, so their hatred for Qu Fengting far exceeded that of others, and they wished to tear him into pieces.
Unfortunately, their strength was far inferior to Qu Fengting's. Qu Fengting held the stone door with one hand and swung his sword with the other. With just a few sword strikes, he killed these people on the spot.
"You, you actually wanted to kill us too." One of them, who had not yet died, looked at Qu Fengting with a sad look in his eyes and said.
"You are a bunch of idiots. Do you think that based on your strength and status, you are qualified to be brothers with me, Qu Fengting? If I didn't think you are worth dying for, do you think I would lower myself to associate with you?" Qu Fengting cursed contemptuously and continued to close the stone door.
"Haha, we are stupid. We actually believed in a heartless person like you. Ha... ha..." The man laughed out loud with a sad face, but stopped abruptly after laughing twice. He stopped breathing. Until his death, his wide-open eyes were still staring at Qu Fengting.
No one expected that Qu Fengting would be so ruthless towards his loyal confidants. With his strength, he could have severely injured several of them, rendering them unable to fight, but he simply killed them with a single strike, leaving them no chance of survival.
It was also at this time that they truly realized Qu Fengting's cruelty and ruthlessness.
Just as these people turned around, the gap behind them opened up, and several strange beasts rushed into the defense line. Caught off guard, several more swordsmen died from the attacks of the strange beasts.
Seeing this, even though the other young swordsmen hated Qu Fengting to the core, they dared not turn around easily. With their strength, fighting Qu Fengting would be a dead end, but holding on to the entrance of the stairs would at least allow them to survive for a while longer.
Even though they knew that they were being used by Qu Fengting, they could do nothing about it. No one wanted to die, and even living a moment longer was good.
"Hold on a little longer. Although this palace has no passages, it's a good place to hide." Mu Hanyan said, then turned around and rushed towards the palace.
Qu Fengting's action of closing the door reminded her that although this palace had experienced thousands of years of wind and rain, it was still extremely sturdy and could accommodate more than a hundred swordsmen. As long as they hid inside and closed the door, they should be able to hold out for a while. It was expected that Zhengying Academy was doing its best to find a way to open the barrier, so they still had a chance.
More importantly, she must not let Qu Fengting succeed. Otherwise, even if they escaped today, they would still die in the future.
Given this man's viciousness, once he gained power, how could he allow a group of people who hated him to the core to live in the world?
Mu Hanyan used all her strength to fly towards the palace.
Unfortunately, there were dozens of steps, and Qu Fengting did not hesitate at all. As soon as his injuries improved after taking the elixir, he started to close the door. By the time Mu Hanyan flew up, the palace door had been mostly closed, with only a gap less than a foot wide.
Looking at Mu Hanyan flying outside the door, Qu Fengting smiled coldly and clasped his hands together.
At this moment, a figure suddenly pounced towards him.
Someone actually dared to seek death. A murderous look flashed in Qu Fengting's eyes. Seeing that this person was not very strong, Qu Fengting didn't even draw his sword, but directly slapped him with his palm.
Seeing Qu Fengting slapping his palm towards his chest, the man did not dodge, but opened his arms and hugged Qu Fengting.
"Bang!" Qu Fengting's palm hit the man's chest hard. The man spat out a mouthful of blood, but still hugged Qu Fengting tightly.
