The young man just looked at them with contempt and gripped the hilt of the sword again.
"Stop!" Qu Shanling saw the murderous intent in his eyes and shouted quickly.
The young man's hand rested on the hilt of the sword, looking at him with interest.
"I'll go with you, just let them go." Qu Shanling said.
Although he didn't want to implicate his master, Qu Shanling knew that with his own strength, facing such a master, he wouldn't even have a chance to commit suicide. No matter what, this was ultimately a matter between them, master and disciple, and he didn't want to implicate Mu Hanyan, Hua Yue, and the others.
"If it weren't for the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool, letting them go wouldn't be a big deal. But now that such a treasure has reappeared in the light of day, do you think I will let them go?" The young man smiled coldly.
A sword is easy to forge, but a divine weapon is hard to find. With sufficient wealth, a certain level of swordsmithing skills, and enough time and patience, one can forge a sword that can cut through hair and slash through hair. However, forging a divine weapon relies on luck. In a sense, the Sword Heart Soul Washing Pool is actually more precious than the Sword Heart Bone Forging Furnace.
Since Mu Hanyan and the others had witnessed the existence of the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool with their own eyes, how could he possibly let them leave? Otherwise, if the news leaked out, even with his strength, he wouldn't be able to protect the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pool.
Mu Hanyan and Hua Yue glanced at each other, moved their feet at the same time, and joined forces to attack the young man again.
Although they knew they were no match for him, a rabbit will bite when cornered. How could they just sit there and wait to die?
This time, everyone put their all into the attack. Even Mu Hanyan unleashed her teleportation technique without reservation. In a flash of light, she and Jiang Yuzhe vanished simultaneously.
However, just as she was performing the teleportation technique, Mu Hanyan suddenly discovered that a magical glow was emitted from the hilt of the young man's sword. Although it was extremely hidden and the color was so light that it was almost difficult to detect, when the glow enveloped her, she actually had a feeling that she could not escape.
"Your barrier technique is indeed quite impressive, but unfortunately, I was prepared. This sword is called Shadow Breaker, and it can pierce through countless illusions." The young man laughed heartily. With a seemingly casual swing of his sword, he sent Jiang Yuzhe, who was about to reveal himself and strike a fatal blow, flying backwards, sword and body alike.
The trajectory of the sword was extremely precise, and it happened to be the moment when Jiang Yuzhe's strength was at its weakest, so that Jiang Yuzhe didn't even have the strength to resist at all.
Then, the young man turned his sword and swept across. The powerful sword light knocked Huayue and Zirong back again. There was no other way. The gap in strength was too great. The difference between a ninth-level swordsman and a seventh-level swordsman was a chasm.
Easily repelling the three, the young man unsheathed his sword, swinging it wide and wide, slashing towards the hidden Mu Hanyan, his speed and precision still reaching the extreme. Mu Hanyan's teleportation barrier was useless in front of him.
Mu Hanyan secretly groaned in her heart. Although this shape-shifting barrier was different from Ye Yanran's barrier, even if she hid her body, she could still practice the skills and have the power to protect herself. However, after all, the way the energy was circulated was different, so the combat effectiveness was still discounted. In addition, the gap in strength between the two was already quite large, so how could she possibly block this sword.
Of course, she also has Cang Xuan Yun Sha, which can provide absolute defense once, but after one use, she has to wait nearly half a month before she can use it again.
Even if she blocked this sword, what would she use to block the next one?
However, facing the opponent's extremely accurate sword, she had no choice at all, not even a chance to dodge.
Mu Hanyan gritted her teeth and slashed forward with her sword.
Mu Hanyan put all her strength into this sword. Even if she couldn't defeat the opponent, as long as both of them were injured, she would at least have a chance to escape.
Of course, Mu Hanyan also knew that given the difference in strength between the two sides and the other party's understanding of her, it would be difficult for both sides to suffer losses.
Suddenly, Mu Hanyan felt tired and even lost in thought for a moment.
When one is throwing all his strength at a life-or-death situation, his mind is naturally highly concentrated, his energy is surging, and he is even extremely excited. How could he feel tired or lose his mind?
Mu Hanyan, who immediately regained consciousness, found it unbelievable. As a master swordsman, making such a mistake in the final battle, he deserved to die.
Just as she was thinking this, Mu Hanyan discovered that the sword movement of the young man opposite her was obviously slower and weaker. There was even a hint of sleepiness in his eyes, and he even opened his mouth unconsciously and yawned.
What was going on? Mu Hanyan didn't have time to think about it, and the Hanxiao Sword in her hand moved even faster. Due to the opponent's distraction, the power of Mu Hanyan's sword was even stronger than the opponent's.
The coldness is overwhelming and the air is filled with murderous intent.
The young man suddenly woke up, and without time to think about what had happened, he quickly accelerated his practice.
At this moment, a huge bolt appeared behind his head.
The young man had just come to his senses and was concentrating on practicing his skills to deal with Mu Hanyan's sword attack, which was aimed at mutual destruction and was slashed with all her might. He didn't notice it at all. When he realized something was wrong and turned his head suddenly, it was too late.
"Bang" the door bolt hit his forehead heavily.
Power, absolute power!
Putting aside the transformations brought about by the energy or other magical techniques, in terms of strength alone, it is definitely not lower than the seventh-level swordsman, or even stronger.
Under normal circumstances, such power would certainly not pose a threat to a seventh-level swordsman. However, at this moment, the young man was fully focused on dealing with Mu Hanyan and did not expect that someone would suddenly attack him. He was hit hard by the door bolt, and his whole body shook several times. The martial arts technique that had just been running halfway was also interrupted.
"Boom!" The sword beams collided, causing a turbulent storm, and two figures flew backwards at the same time.
The difference was that Mu Hanyan took advantage of the situation to retreat to avoid being seriously injured, while the young man was blown away.
"Bang!" The young man fell heavily to the ground, spitting out a mouthful of blood. His once handsome face was now ripped open by Mu Hanyan's sword, leaving a wound on his face. A trail of blood slowly flowed down his forehead, making him look extremely miserable.
"I told you that I would repay you, but you didn't believe me. Now you believe it, right?" Xiao Linzi dragged the gate bolt and said proudly to Mu Hanyan.
A child of seven or eight years old, dragging a gate bolt that was longer than his height, with a smug smile on his face, really makes people laugh.
However, thinking back to the powerful blow just now and looking at the blood gushing from the young man's forehead, no one could laugh.
What kind of monster is this? He has such supernatural powers at the age of seven or eight. What will happen to him when he grows up?
"Okay, we're even now. I won't owe you anything anymore." The little guy said in a smart-assed manner.
"Yeah." Mu Hanyan nodded.
