Even a fool could tell that this apology was insincere.
Why didn't he die of anger? Even fainting from anger would be fine. Mu Hanyan said a hypocritical apology, but she was secretly disappointed in her heart.
In fact, she herself was a bit surprised by the slap. She had originally intended to hit the opponent's heart meridian, but the opponent was too strong. The powerful palm force was so strong that even her Cang Xuan Yunsha could not completely dissipate it, so the palm missed the target and hit the opponent's face.
Of course, such an outcome wasn't a bad thing. In a battle between masters, life and death hang on a thread. This could cause the opponent to feel a mixture of shame and anger, perhaps even a brief moment of mental indifference due to excessive rage. This was undoubtedly a godsend for Mu Hanyan.
Mu Hanyan clearly felt that at the same time as the other party's face changed drastically, the invisible pressure that enveloped her body like an impenetrable giant net also showed a flaw.
So, as soon as she finished speaking, while the other party was still in a daze, Mu Hanyan turned around and ran away.
Until now, she still didn't know the other party's origins, but she didn't need to know. It was enough to know that he had bad intentions and that anyone who fell into his hands would definitely not have a good ending.
Although the slap just now landed on the opponent's face, under the opponent's powerful palm force, Mu Hanyan's internal organs were shaken and her blood was surging. If she did not regulate her breathing and straighten out her meridians in time, it might leave hidden dangers. But now saving her life is the most important thing, and Mu Hanyan could not care about much else. She increased her strength to the extreme and fled away like a fly.
In the blink of an eye, Mu Hanyan's figure was like a ghost, floating several feet away. This speed far exceeded the level of a first-level swordsman, and was even comparable to that of a third- or fourth-level swordsman.
"Want to escape? It's not that easy!" The young man just sneered, moved his feet, and the strong figure disappeared from the spot in an instant.
The next moment, that murderous and cold face appeared behind Mu Hanyan and slapped her on the back.
The previous slap was the greatest humiliation in his life, so he was determined to slap Mu Hanyan with this slap. Even if he didn't kill him, he would at least seriously injure him, otherwise he would not be able to get rid of the hatred in his heart.
Just as the palm was about to hit Mu Hanyan's vest, even he himself thought that Mu Hanyan would never escape, but he saw that Mu Hanyan seemed to have eyes on her back. She moved half a step sideways strangely, twisted her waist, and actually avoided the vital part of the vest, and barely escaped from his palm.
Although Mu Hanyan staggered and spat out blood under the residual power of the palm, she was not seriously injured.
"How is this possible!" The young man's eyes showed shock.
The gap in strength between the two is so huge that even if Mu Hanyan really has eyes on her back, it would be impossible for her to dodge his determined palm strike.
Not to mention him, even Mu Hanyan herself was surprised.
It was not until this moment that she realized how exquisite and mysterious the Shenwu Lianpo Jue taught her by Xinghuan Qianji was. Although practicing this set of mental techniques did not help much in improving her strength, her spiritual consciousness improved by leaps and bounds.
Possessing six senses that were several times more powerful than those of an ordinary sword master, her instinctive intuition about danger was also multiplied. It was precisely because of this intuition that she was able to dodge the opponent's extremely fierce palm in a very dangerous way.
Unfortunately, the gap in strength was still too great. Mu Hanyan believed that with such a powerful Six Senses, even if she was only a fifth or sixth level Sword Master, she would be able to escape safely from the opponent's grasp. The strength of a first level Sword Master was still a little too weak.
Although he spat out a mouthful of blood, Mu Hanyan's injuries were not too serious. The feeling of stagnation in his chest caused by the churning of blood and qi became much lighter. He gathered his strength and escaped at a faster speed.
Seeing this scene, the young man's expression became solemn, and he felt an inexplicable fear in his heart.
At this moment, Mu Hanyan is only a first-level swordsman, but she is already so difficult to deal with. How terrifying will she be in the future?
"No, even if we can't kill him today, we must kill him as soon as possible, otherwise he will become a big problem in the future." A cold murderous intent flashed in the young man's eyes.
Having made up his mind, he completely put away his previous contempt, as well as the anger that made him lose his mind, and treated Mu Hanyan with the same mentality as he treated a master of the same level.
"Clang!" With the sound of a dragon's roar, the ancient sword was unsheathed, scattering frost on the ground.
"How shameless are you? A great sword master is fighting against a first-level swordsman, and you actually draw your sword. Do you still have any dignity as a sword master?" Mu Hanyan heard the sword chanting behind her and felt the bone-chilling chill. She was so angry that she wanted to curse.
But in the end, Mu Hanyan didn't curse out loud.
To be able to be promoted to Sword Saint, the opponent's character must be as hard as a rock. The reason why he lost his mind briefly just now was because the slap in the face left too much shadow in his heart.
Now that he has drawn his sword, he must have made up his mind to keep me alive no matter what. It is pointless to try to argue with me. It is better to save some energy and escape for my life.
At this critical moment, even if you save a little bit of energy, you will have a better chance of escaping.
Unfortunately, this time, the other party did not give her any chance.
Behind her, a sword whistled loudly, and a cold murderous intent locked her firmly. In an instant, Mu Hanyan's whole body turned cold and her heart sank into an icy valley.
Mu Hanyan stopped. She knew that no matter how fast she was, she could not be faster than the opponent's invisible sword energy. If she continued to run like this, the opponent would only need a simple sword to pierce her heart.
After all, the gap in strength is there. Whether it is speed or defense, she is far behind.
Mu Hanyan slowly turned around. Facing a sword master, leaving her back exposed to the opponent was undoubtedly seeking death. Although there was no chance of winning in a head-on confrontation, there was still a chance to fight hard. Even if she died, at least she would not die in vain.
"What, you're not running away anymore?" The young man pointed his sword at Mu Hanyan and said with a sneer.
"Who are you?" Mu Hanyan asked calmly while practicing Qigong and regulating her breathing.
"Dan Tai Chang Qing!" said the young man proudly.
"Who is Dan Tai Xuan to you?" Mu Hanyan asked with a frown, remembering the young man from Fang Jiacun who tried to seize the Jianxin Soul Cleansing Pool but was forced back by Ye Lanxuan.
"I am his elder brother." said Tan Tai Chang Qing.
"So that's how it is. I understand." Mu Hanyan suddenly realized.
At first, she was still wondering when she had offended such a powerful foe, only to discover it was Tan Taixuan's eldest brother. It was only natural for the elder brother to seek revenge when his younger brother had suffered. But Mu Hanyan was frustrated. If you wanted revenge, why would you go to Ye Lanxuan? Why me? Picking on the weak, huh? Indeed, compared to Ye Lanxuan, she was a real pushover.
