Under the gloomy sky, the rare moonlight shone on the silk thread, reflecting a chilling, piercing light.
Without hesitation, Jiang Wuyuan forcefully suppressed the injuries within his body, and the Devouring Star in his hand erupted with dazzling golden light.
Wind, Splendor!
Buzz—
A golden phantom of a deity materialized behind him, and intense sword intent surged toward the youth's attack like a tidal wave.
boom--
The silk thread collided with the golden greatsword, but only for a moment, the phantom was shattered by the impact of the silk thread, and the victorious silk thread bared its fangs and claws as it pounced on Jiang Wuyuan.
Sky-shattering!
Jiang Wuyuan took a step back, his body sinking into a spatial rift.
Seemingly surprised that Jiang Wuyuan could still escape, a hint of interest appeared in the young man's eyes.
It's truly rare for a peak martial artist to achieve this level.
"But you've already seen my face, which is really troublesome." Watching Jiang Wuyuan flee in a disheveled state, the young man sighed, "So I'll just kill you then."
The young man tightened his grip, no longer intending to continue this cat-and-mouse game with Jiang Wuyuan.
The silk threads obeyed his commands completely, accelerating instantly and tightly binding Jiang Wuyuan, who was trying to escape again using the Sky Rift technique.
"Xiao Yuan!" Ruan Kongyin's eyes widened in horror.
As the King of Martial Arts, although he had not yet been defeated, he was not in much better shape, with countless wounds all over his body from being scratched by the silk threads.
If things continue like this, defeat is only a matter of time.
The young man didn't immediately strike, but instead kept tightening the silk thread.
The once fine and soft thread was now as sharp as a blade, easily slicing through Jiang Wuyuan's skin, leaving him covered in blood, with wounds so deep they could reach the bone.
“Ha…” Blood spilled from the corner of Jiang Wuyuan’s lips, and cold sweat beaded on his forehead.
The intense pain caused the veins on his forehead to bulge.
This is the first time in so many years that he has been injured so badly.
The young man ignored Ruan Kongyin, who was practically glaring at him with murderous intent. He walked on air, slowly approaching the boy who was restrained, admiring his miserable appearance, and exclaimed, "How beautiful."
The silver threads, wrapped in circles, were stained with blood and turned into his favorite color.
"I'm in a good mood today. How about I give you a choice, little genius?" The young man smiled, his eyes lowered. "Become my dog, or die."
Jiang Wuyuan's cold, blood-stained eyes met his gaze without flinching: "Get lost."
"What a disgusting answer." The young man's smile vanished instantly, and the threads binding Jiang Wuyuan tightened once more. "One last chance."
Jiang Wuyuan stared coldly at him, his right hand, almost broken by the silk threads, twitched slightly. In an instant, the flying swords hidden all around trailed a golden light and swiftly pierced towards the young man's figure.
clang--
Click—
The third-tier flying sword slammed into the blood and qi barrier surrounding the young man's body, like an egg hitting a stone, and instantly shattered into two pieces.
Jiang Wuyuan's pupils contracted.
For the first time ever, his weapon was broken.
"Heh, what a pathetic struggle." The young man lost his patience. "Go to hell."
This time, the powerful killing intent made Jiang Wuyuan's heart tighten. His hand could barely hold the hilt of the Devouring Star sword, but he still gritted his teeth and wanted to fight back.
"Don't be afraid." A gentle voice rang in Jiang Wuyuan's ear.
Tear—
The silk thread was cut in mid-air, and Jiang Wuyuan lost his support, falling heavily to the ground. Just before he hit the ground, a force gently caught his body, and he slowly landed on the ground.
"Cough cough..." Blood from every inch of the boy's healthy skin quickly stained the ground red. "Vice Principal Ruan..."
"It's me."
Ruan Yanqing's gaze swept over Jiang Wuyuan, who was lying on the ground, and Ruan Kongyin, whom he had rescued, before finally settling on the unrestrained young man in front of him.
“Night Owl’s men,” Ruan Yanqing said softly, “daring to cause trouble in my Zhantian City, they have quite the nerve.”
boom--
The young man's face changed under the sudden pressure, and his once straight back bent deeply.
"If you can't beat them, you call for backup. I didn't expect the students from Zhan Tian Academy to be so weak." The young man's temple veins throbbed, his eyes, filled with madness and malice, fixed on Ruan Yanqing, who stood with her hands behind her back. "You too..."
Snap!
Ruan Yanqing was too lazy to talk to him. With a thought, she directly slapped the young man who was trying to make threats away.
As a grandmaster, he possessed the power to fill mountains and split seas.
If they really went all out, the entire Battle Heaven City wouldn't be enough for him to wreak havoc.
So the slap wasn't really that hard; the young man fell to the ground and rolled quite a distance, but he still managed to get up again after a short while.
Ruan Yanqing narrowed her eyes and reached out to grab the young man.
The space was compressed to its limit, making it extremely difficult for the young man to even struggle. He helplessly flailed a couple of times, then lowered his hands as if in surrender, ceasing all movement.
"Unfortunately, I underestimated how troublesome you all are." The young man raised his head and met Ruan Yanqing's gaze.
The dark emotions in those eyes made Ruan Yanqing frown uncomfortably.
At such a young age, he is so ruthless.
The young man's gaze swept over Jiang Wuyuan and Ruan Kongyin, who was helping him feed the medicine, as if he wanted to remember the two of them. "I lost this time, but I will come back to find you again. See you next time, my little darlings."
Seeing that he wanted to run away, Ruan Yanqing suddenly raised her hand to exert pressure, but a flash of black light appeared in the young man's hand, and a spatial rift that could only be passed by one person appeared.
