"Why not?" Mu Ruian stood tall, looking arrogant.
The two men flew up at the same time, unsheathed their swords, and slashed at each other at the same time.
In an instant, the sword light as bright as the sky shot into the sky.
Two piercing sword beams seemed to rip apart the heavens and earth, shocking everything in the world. Even the two sides fighting below couldn't help but slow down their attacks and looked at the two men in fear.
"Fifth-level swordsman!" Mu Hanyan only then realized her father's strength, he was actually a fifth-level swordsman.
Such strength, looking at the Zong family in the capital, is definitely considered a master. You have to know that my father left the Zong family more than ten years ago. To protect himself, he deliberately kept his distance from the Zong family and never received any help from the Zong family. Naturally, his cultivation resources are far inferior to those of the Zong family's children.
But his father still reached the fifth level of swordsman. Seeing Mu Ruian's majestic and domineering aura, Mu Hanyan felt deeply proud.
However, while she was proud, she also had some vague worries in her heart - Zhao Yuanji was actually also a fifth-level swordsman!
No wonder the Mu family suffered such a great loss in the previous life. No wonder Mu Yuanshui was seriously injured right at the beginning. Who would have thought that this old guy had such strength.
As for Mu Yunshui himself, his face was even paler, and he felt a sense of fear in his heart: Fortunately, Zhao Yuanji did not use his full strength just now, otherwise, if he was careless, he might even lose his life in Black Stone City.
The entire sky seemed to be shrouded in the cold light of the two men's swords. Wind and clouds gathered above the nine heavens, forming countless phantoms, like thousands of beasts running wildly, or like a forest of swords and spears.
Although it was just two people fighting, it felt like thousands of troops were fighting head-on.
With a deafening roar, the phantom in the air dissipated, and the two men flew back several feet. Mu Ruian's arm trembled slightly, and blood oozed faintly from the corner of his mouth.
"Father!" Mu Hanyan and Mu Hanfeng were shocked and quickly flew forward to support their father.
"I'm fine, don't worry." Mu Ruian waved his hand with a slight smile on his face.
On the opposite side, Zhao Yuanji groaned, and traces of blood oozed out of his body, soon dyeing his clothes bright red.
Obviously, although Mu Ruian was injured in this fight, Zhao Yuanji was more seriously injured, and the difference between the two was obvious.
Seeing this scene, the morale of the Mu clan below, as well as the Wu and Yuan clans who had rushed to their aid, was greatly boosted, and they cheered like thunder. Meanwhile, the members of the other major clans felt as if they had fallen into an icy abyss. If Patriarch Zhao could have overpowered Mu Ruian, they still had a chance to turn things around, but now, even Patriarch Zhao was no match for Mu Ruian, so how could they have any chance at all?
"Master of the family!" The old housekeeper supported the staggering Zhao Yuanji and cried out in grief.
"I never thought the Mu family's technique would be so powerful!" Patriarch Zhao took a deep breath, forcing himself to stop himself from collapsing, and said with a look of sorrow. Although both were fifth-level sword masters, Mu Ruian's strength far surpassed that of his peers due to the profound and profound nature of the Tianxin technique. He was no match for him.
"Master, I'm going to kill him!" The old butler wiped away his tears and rushed towards Mu Ruian and others with gritted teeth.
The long sword was unsheathed, and a majestic aura was released, showing the power of the swordsman to the fullest.
However, today's battle was full of twists and turns, and after too many shocks, both the Zhao and Mu sides were almost numb.
Mu Ze and others were not even interested in taking a second look at his strength.
He is just a first-level swordsman. If Mu Hanfeng had not come back, he might still pose some threat, but Mu Hanfeng is also a first-level swordsman, and he possesses the Chixiao Sword. How can he be compared with ordinary masters of the same level?
"I'll deal with him. Big brother, you take care of father." Mu Hanfeng glanced coldly at the old housekeeper Zhao, then said to Mu Hanyan.
Mu Ruian's injuries were not serious, but the winning sword strike just now had greatly depleted his energy. To deal with a first-level swordsman, he naturally didn't need to take action again.
"Well, be careful." This was the first time Mu Hanyan had heard Mu Hanfeng say "big brother" in all these years. She looked at Mu Hanfeng with satisfaction and nodded. Although Mu Hanfeng would have preferred to call her "sister."
He was just a first-rank swordsman. For Mu Hanfeng, this was a great opportunity for him to hone his sword skills and become famous. Mu Hanyan didn't want to steal the limelight from him.
"With big brother's magic sword in my hand, there is nothing to worry about." Mu Hanfeng laughed loudly and said with great passion.
He looks a little arrogant, but that's just what he should be like at his age.
Mu Hanyan smiled slightly. Over the years, because of his "dissolute nature", the whole family was disgraced. In order to restore some reputation for his parents, Mu Hanfeng always pretended to be mature and prudent, never stepping out of line. Although he was young, he had learned 80% of Mu Ruian's calmness and coldness. He didn't have the recklessness and frivolity that a young man should have.
At this moment, he finally showed his true side.
Amidst long laughter, Mu Hanfeng was already fighting fiercely with the old butler of the Zhao family.
Although Butler Zhao was several times older than Mu Hanfeng, had a more solid foundation, and his energy was powerful and long-lasting, Mu Hanfeng was young and full of vigor and fighting spirit. With the Chixiao Sword in his hand, he was like a dragon turning into a wind and cloud, and firmly held the upper hand.
"Is it really impossible to save the situation?" Seeing this scene, not to mention the people of various tribes under his command, even Zhao Yuanji himself showed despair in his eyes.
"Master, I'm late!" Zhao Si Ning's anxious voice was heard in the distance.
In just a few breaths, Zhao Sining and a fifty-year-old man arrived nearby.
"Who is Mu Hanyan? Get out here, I will tear you into pieces!" The old man roared wildly, and at the same time showed his strength as a swordsman without any concealment.
Swordsman, another swordsman!
Looking at the domineering figure in the air, everyone, whether from the Mu family or the Zhao family, was shocked.
This was the fifth swordsman to appear today. Even in the capital, apart from the top families like the Eight Great Aristocratic Families, ordinary families could only find a few swordsmen. And today, the Zhao and Mu families alone had four swordsmen, the strongest of whom, Mu Ruian and Zhao Yuanji, had even reached the fifth rank of swordsman.
That’s not all, now another one has popped up.
Is this really a feud between two families in a remote town called Black Stone City? If you don't know, you might think it's a fight between the aristocratic families in the capital.
Hearing the man's roar, the Zhao people finally breathed a sigh of relief. This man was clearly here to seek revenge on Mu Hanyan. Fortunately, he was an enemy and not a friend.
The hearts of the Mu family members sank slightly. Mu Ruian hadn't recovered yet, and although Mu Hanfeng had the upper hand, it would be difficult for him to kill the Zhao family's old steward immediately. So, who would stand up to this swordsman?
