The disciples looked at each other, intimidated by Xiao's skills, and dared not continue forward.
"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and attack!" Qi Ming urged. "This man has disobeyed the will of the Faceless God and deserves to die!"
Upon hearing the words "Faceless God," the disciples mustered their courage and strode forward.
Helpless, He Xiao raised his short sword. Knowing he was severely wounded and unable to break through the encirclement, he stood still. In an instant, countless thoughts raced through his mind: "Mr. Yao doesn't think it's the Faceless God possessing him!"
"Who exactly orchestrated all of this?"
"Purpose? What exactly is the purpose?"
"I have lived my whole life for Xuanhua Palace, yet today I have inexplicably harmed so many Xuanhua Palace disciples?"
"Or is it that my insistence on helping Lin Mo led to this situation?"
"Lin Mo, Lin Mo, what kind of person are you? Are you the spokesperson of the old gods? Or are you truly the incarnation of evil on earth?"
Seeing Tang Ying's face contorted and her eyes wide open as she thrust her sword straight at his chest, He Xiao was overcome with grief and indignation. He suddenly looked up to the sky and roared like a ferocious beast.
Upon hearing He Xiao's deafening roar, Tang Ying felt a sudden wave of dizziness, staggered, and lost her balance.
The disciples involuntarily took a few steps back.
Upon seeing this, Qi Ming strode forward and thrust his sword forward.
The sword tip was less than a foot from He Xiao's chest, and he showed no intention of resisting.
Tang Ying instinctively closed her eyes, unable to bear watching.
Just then, someone shouted, "Lord, run! I'll stop them!"
Then, with a whoosh, a person leaped down from mid-air, wielding a short sword, and clashed with Qi Ming's long sword, producing a loud sound.
He Xiao looked closely and saw that the person who came was none other than Tang Feng.
"You? How come you..." he asked in surprise.
"My lord, there's no time for explanations!" Tang Feng shouted. "Leave this place immediately!"
With that, Tang Feng raised his short sword and attacked without hesitation.
Upon seeing this, He Xiao trembled.
With Tang Feng's skills, he is definitely no match for them.
If I don't leave soon, I'm afraid I'll die here!
So he gritted his teeth, pulled a long rope from his pocket, and swung it out, wrapping it around the flagpole outside the gate.
With a pull of the long rope, it floated up gracefully and landed in the flagpole's finial.
"Stop him!" Qi Ming shouted.
However, He Xiao was extremely fast. He threw the long rope out of the flagpole, circled around to a large tree eight or nine zhang away, and then swung out of the flagpole, instantly crossing the tree and landing more than ten zhang away from the flagpole.
As he was leaving, He Xiao clearly heard Tang Feng shout, "Lone Wolf! Lord, Lone Wolf!"
"What? Lone Wolf?"
He Xiao frowned, then strode forward and disappeared into the rainy night!
