Xiang Liang sat in his study, listening to the servant's report, his face ashen and grim.
"Did he really come alone?"
“It’s absolutely true, he’s causing a scene right now at the Mo family’s gate,” the servant said.
Xiang Liang snorted and said, "I want to see just how capable he really is."
"Pass on my order: gather all available troops and ambush them at the entrance of the Mo family compound. Make sure to take his life."
After giving his instructions, Xiang Liang hurriedly left with his trusted confidants.
Outside the Mohist school.
Lu Li stood quietly, sword in hand. His eyes were cold, and his whole body exuded a sharp aura, like a razor-sharp sword, incomparably sharp.
Suddenly, a group of people appeared at the entrance of the Mo family. Upon seeing them, Lu Li's pupils shrank.
"It's Xiang Liang!"
Lu Li narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiang Liang in the middle of the group.
Beside Xiang Liang was a young man, dressed in a blue robe, with delicate features and an air of nobility.
He is Xiang Yu!
At this moment, Xiang Liang's face also looked extremely pale.
As the saying goes, enemies are especially hateful when they meet. Lu Li killed his father, and even his grandfather died at the hands of Cangwu.
He wished he could tear Lu Li to pieces right now.
"Lu Li, how dare you trespass into the Mo family!" Xiang Liang said through gritted teeth.
Lu Li sneered, "The Mohist school? So what?"
"Since we're here, let's stay here forever!"
Xiang Liang snorted coldly, and his men quickly surrounded Lu Li.
Lu Li showed no fear whatsoever. He slowly raised his longsword and said casually, "The outcome is still uncertain!"
"presumptuous!"
Xiang Liang flew into a rage, pointed at Lu Li, and shouted, "Kill him!"
Lu Li's gaze grew colder, and he suddenly shot out.
Clang!
He brandished his longsword, which suddenly unleashed a sword beam several feet long. The sword beam slashed down from the sky with unstoppable force and astonishing power.
Boom!
The sword light fell, and the entire ground exploded.
Lu Li's figure transformed into a blur and disappeared from the spot. When he reappeared, the tip of his sword had already reached Xiang Yiren's throat, only inches away.
"ah!"
A scream rang out. Blood splattered, staining Lu Li's robes crimson.
Xiang Liang's eyes widened in shock. He immediately unleashed a killing move, killing his subordinate with a single strike!
"Bang!"
Lu Li stepped forward and leaped into the air, his longsword tracing an arc as it thrust towards Xiang Liang.
Xiang Liang was terrified and hurriedly dodged to the side.
Lu Li had no intention of letting him go. His body plummeted downwards, and his long sword aimed straight for Xiang Liang's head.
Xiang Liang felt a strong sense of crisis. He roared and raised his spear to block.
clang!
As the weapons clashed, a tremendous rebound force surged forth, splitting Xiang Liang's hand and causing excruciating pain in his arm, nearly causing him to lose his grip on the spear.
"Pfft!"
Lu Li pierced his shoulder with his sword, blood spurting out. Xiang Liang groaned in pain, his face turning pale.
Just then, Xiang Yu, who was not far away, made his move!
He held a halberd and slashed straight at Lu Li.
Buzz!
The void trembled, and a domineering force erupted from the halberd, instantly reaching Lu Li.
Lu Li frowned and slapped the side of the halberd.
A loud bang.
Lu Li was blasted away and slid for ten meters on the ground before regaining his footing!
"A peak ninth-tier martial artist!"
Lu Li never expected that Xiang Yu, who was only in his early twenties, had already reached the peak of the ninth rank!
No wonder he's someone the heavens envy!
Then, Xiang Yu, wielding his halberd, transformed into a streak of black light and charged towards Lu Li.
Lu Li's eyes narrowed slightly, and he retreated swiftly.
"Clang!"
The halberd slammed heavily onto the ground, instantly cracking the surface.
"Bang!"
Xiang Yu leaped into the air, his right leg bent, and with the force of Mount Tai crashing down, he slashed down at Lu Li again.
Lu Li leaped into the air, barely dodging Xiang Yu's attack.
However, as soon as he landed, Xiang Yu attacked again.
Xiang Yu was very strong, so Lu Li had to be careful.
The two fought fiercely for a long time, neither able to gain the upper hand!
But Lu Li could clearly feel that Xiang Yu's power was growing stronger and more violent, and gradually, he could no longer hold on.
Xiang Yu was different from Cangwu. Cangwu was born with superhuman strength and cultivated Taoist internal energy techniques. He only lived past the age of eight after becoming a Taoist soldier.
Moreover, although one may never reach the level of a minor grandmaster in their lifetime, they can still exchange one life for one with a minor grandmaster.
However, Xiang Yu did not suffer from the drawbacks of being envied by the heavens. He was not only intelligent but also able to continuously cultivate himself.
Although he is not yet as good as Cangwu, under Xiang Liang's tutelage, Xiang Yu has already become a peak ninth-tier martial artist, comparable to an average peak ninth-tier martial artist.
More importantly, his internal strength was profound, and even if Lu Li tried his best, he could hardly hurt a hair on his head.
"Heavenly Fire Sword Body, Demons Retreat!" Lu Li roared, brandishing his longsword and channeling his inner strength into it, unleashing the fourth strike of Sword Eleven.
Boom boom boom...
Sword energy shot out in all directions, like flames, burning everything around it, and the terrifying heat wave forced Xiang Yu to keep his eyes closed.
"Break!"
Xiang Yu roared, and his halberd, like a dragon probing the sea, pierced through the sky filled with sword energy.
"Bang!"
He crashed heavily into the ground, kicking up a cloud of dust.
A moment later, the smoke and dust dissipated, and everyone looked up to find Lu Li standing in the same spot, while Xiang Yu lay on the ground, his life hanging in the balance.
Upon seeing this, Xiang Liang turned deathly pale. "Yu'er...!"
