Yuan Hong was even more furious upon hearing this. Vent his anger? Vent his anger on him? Did he think he was a pushover to be bullied?
This person killed and destroyed his city, killed his criminals, and even beheaded and took away the current head of the Yuan family. Does he really think he has no temper?
He said angrily, "Fine, I'll see who you are and what you're capable of, with such a big mouth."
As Yuan Hong spoke, the Jinghong Immortal Sword appeared in his hand without him noticing. Without further hesitation, he charged towards Murong Yi.
Murong Yi remained calm, his expression cold as he watched Yuan Hong approach step by step; this was the man who had blocked his path.
Originally, he only needed to wait a while to advance to the Immortal King level, but now it may take a very long time.
Thinking of this, his eyes were filled with resentment as he looked at Yuan Hong, as cold as frost.
Yuan Hong naturally saw Murong Yi's reaction, but he was puzzled by the look in Murong Yi's eyes. Was this person so close to Hei Sha?
That chilling gaze, brimming with murderous intent, and that deep-seated hatred didn't seem like an act.
Since they were enemies, Yuan Hong couldn't care less about anything else; he would just kill them. He became even more serious and earnest.
His first move was a deadly strike; "His sword strikes startled mountains and rivers."
Yuan Hong knew this opponent was no ordinary person, so he paid even more attention to his attacks than he had to Hei Sha.
The light of the Jinghong Sword flowed and shone brightly, as if it contained a world within it. He seemed to be carrying the power of an entire world as he attacked Murong Yi.
This is the fusion of sword and Dao, creating a swordsmanship unique to him.
Murong Yi's response was simple: a deep, resentful shout, "Kill!"
He raised the immortal sword in his hand, its blade as black as ink, with red and black spiritual light flowing around it, and slashed at Yuan Hong.
Upon seeing this, Yuan Hong frowned; the feeling was very familiar.
Those red and black flowing lights, don't they represent blood and evil energy? They're very similar to the moves of the Black Fiend.
This person is indeed related to Hei Sha, as can be seen from his martial arts techniques.
Clang.
The two swords clashed, producing a crisp metallic sound.
Those watching the scene were also eagerly anticipating the outcome, speculating about who would win and who would lose. Yuan Hong and the others recognized Murong Yi and were very curious about his identity.
The two exchanged a move.
Murong Yi remained unmoved, looking at Yuan Hong with disdain.
Yuan Hong retreated a hundred feet, staring at Murong Yi in astonishment. This person was actually so strong?
They had exchanged a tentative blow earlier and thought they were evenly matched, but now they're in trouble.
Murong Yi switched from defense to offense, drawing his sword and shouting in a hoarse, low voice, "Kill."
Black and red light flowed, and he transformed into a long rainbow of black and red sword energy, charging towards Yuan Hong.
Yuan Hong's heart tightened, and he dared not be careless. He roared, "Sword strikes, shattering mountains and rivers!"
It also transformed into a sword rainbow to meet the enemy.
Bang.
When the two sides met again, the collision of their sword energies produced an explosive sound that was deafening.
They parted ways immediately upon contact, and Murong Yi looked completely relaxed.
Yuan Hong swayed precariously, blood trickling from the corner of his mouth; he had been injured in the direct confrontation.
Murong Yi looked at him coldly and spoke indifferently from his superior position.
"If this is all you've got, you can't defeat Black Fiend. You're more than that. Show me your true strength."
Yuan Hong felt extremely ashamed and angry. "Fine, as you wish."
His expression hardened, and three small flowers suddenly appeared on his head: a jade flower, a golden flower, and a nine-flower.
With the appearance of the three flowers, his temperament changed instantly, and his aura increased significantly.
His expression was cold and stern, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, staring intently at Murong Yi, thinking of piercing a few holes in him.
Murong Yi raised an eyebrow at Yuan Hong, a brief moment of surprise flashing across his cold expression before he became serious. "Interesting, this is getting interesting."
Yuan Hong couldn't tell whether the other party was mocking or praising him, but it didn't matter to him anymore; only battle mattered.
"The Sword of Startling Beauty, a single sword strike that startles the swan."
Yuan Hong merged with the human world, transforming into an imperceptible stream of light and disappearing from the public eye.
Murong Yi held his sword intently, trying to catch a glimpse of Yuan Hong's figure. He only sensed a slight fluctuation in the space and was able to guess the approximate location of the other party, who was lurking around him.
"This is indeed interesting. Although I can't pinpoint your location, you're being naive if you think you can use that to ambush me."
It was unclear whether Yuan Hong was affected or not, but with a "whoosh," he suddenly appeared behind Murong Yi, thrusting his sword fiercely at the back of Murong Yi's head.
Murong Yi sensed the killing intent and danger. He turned around abruptly, thrusting out his jet-black longsword. A mocking smile played on his lips. "Is that all?"
Yuan Hong was not discouraged when he realized he had been discovered, and continued his attack without hesitation.
The sharp sound of the Jinghong Sword cutting through the air rang in Murong Yi's ears, as if it were slicing through layers of space.
Murong Yi realized something was wrong, and he suddenly increased the intensity.
Clang.
This time, Yuan Hong took a slight step back and looked coldly at his opponent.
Murong Yi retreated a hundred feet, still looking shaken.
"You really know how to hide your true intentions well, and your thinking is quite ingenious."
This sword strike, though seemingly a sneak attack, was actually a powerful and undeniable blow. Black Fiend was caught off guard and killed by you.
Yuan Hong didn't refute it. Since he had already seen through it, there was no need to hide it anymore. He could only confront it head-on.
A new round of battle was about to begin when a burly man with thick eyebrows arrived, bringing with him a wave of heat.
He was equally furious, with an accusatory look on his face: "Who killed my people?"
The visitor was Yan Yi, the head of the Yan family. Unlike the Yuan family, he was the person in charge of the Yan family and also the person with the highest cultivation level in the Yan family.
Like Yuan Hong, he had only been away from here for a short time when he received devastating news: many disciples of the Yan family had been killed or injured, and Yan Lie had been captured, which enraged him.
He scanned the entire room and saw Yuan Hong, whom he had just parted ways with, as well as the unnamed man, and he already had a guess.
Yuan Hong breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing Yan Yi finally arrive and offered his explanation:
"Yan Yi, you've finally arrived. This is the man who murdered our two families' members. We must join forces and not let him get away with this."
Yan Yi stared at Yan Lie's headless corpse, his heart skipped a beat, and he could not hide his grief and indignation. His face was filled with sorrow, and he spoke with a trembling voice, "Yan Lie is dead?"
Yuan Hong shook his head and quickly explained his guesses and what he knew.
"It shouldn't be yet. It should be that his head was cut off and put away, just like Guangxu's."
This man said that Black Demon was dead, and that he had come to avenge Black Demon. His methods were somewhat similar to Black Demon's, and you can probably guess what he wanted to do with the head.
Black Demon was severely injured by us and fled; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he died at our hands.
This person is very strong. Let's join forces and take him down first.
Upon hearing this, Yan Yi unleashed his pent-up anger on Murong Yi, saying, "Hand over Yan Lie now, and I'll give you a quick death."
Murong Yi remained calm as she looked at the enraged Yan Yi, then suddenly smiled and said softly:
"Patriarch of the Yan family, you've finally arrived. Now it's time for the show to begin. Hei Sha is dead, so let the two of you make up for it."
