The Yan warrior, holding a fine iron longsword, silently watched He Yunxiao.
He didn't understand what He Yunxiao meant by "protagonist," "female lead," and "cross-level battles"—it all made no sense.
He had only one thought in his mind: to kill Xiaoyue!
After giving He Yunxiao a deep look, the Yan Kingdom Grandmaster said in the hoarse tone typical of middle-aged men, "You're not bad. You're a promising talent. You'll definitely become a Grandmaster in the future. It's just a pity you're not from my Yan Kingdom. If you want to live, run away while I'm killing Xiaoyue. If you're too slow, don't blame me for bullying the weak."
The Yan Kingdom master loosened his grip, the longsword slipped from his hand, and freed from restraint, he turned and ran wildly in the direction Jian Ling had gone.
The difference between a master-level lightness skill and a ninth-rank lightness skill is incomparable.
At this rate, Jian Ling will be overtaken by the Yan people in just a few breaths.
Just then, the figure who had saved Jian Ling suddenly appeared in front of the Yan Kingdom warriors.
The visitor was none other than He Yunxiao!
Yan Kingdom warrior: ?
He Yunxiao threw the sword he was holding to the ground with a loud crash. Then, he flicked his wrist, splattering blood everywhere. But he seemed to feel no pain at all. After cleaning up the blood, he even took out a handkerchief to bandage the wound right in front of the Yan Kingdom's grandmaster martial artist.
He Yunxiao's lightness skill was enhanced by the "Agility Boost" reward from Nan Zhu's first conquest. It's no exaggeration to say that his lightness skill level is on par with Chu Chu's, making him more than capable of chasing a Yan Kingdom grandmaster.
The Grandmaster had no interest in watching He Yunxiao bandage his wounds. He lifted his leg and used his lightness skill to chase after Jian Ling again!
A moment later, He Yunxiao reappeared before him. By this time, He Yunxiao's hand, which had been cut from gripping the sword blade, had been bandaged.
The Yan warrior looked at He Yunxiao. After being caught up by He Yunxiao twice, he began to realize that something was wrong.
There's something fishy about this kid!
After being repeatedly thwarted by He Yunxiao, even as a Grandmaster, he dared not be careless in his face. This time, he didn't even bother with a greeting, channeling his inner strength into his flesh and meridians, and his legs shot out like a fully drawn bow!
The Yan Kingdom warriors attacked He Yunxiao like cannonballs, but the internal force that suppressed Jian Ling's lightness skill was even faster than the warriors themselves! They struck first and arrived first, enveloping He Yunxiao before he could even make a move.
The Yan warrior used his fingers as swords, joined two fingers together, and pointed at He Yunxiao, roaring, "Pingyang Sword! Wuji Style!"
Faced with the killing intent of a Grandmaster, He Yunxiao never intended to dodge from the start. He possessed the strength of a peak ninth-grade martial artist, the vitality enhanced by the Soul-Devouring Pill, and his meridians, flesh, internal organs, and bones tempered by Chu Chu's internal energy. His current strength far surpassed that of an ordinary ninth-grade martial artist.
He Yunxiao revealed a sinister smile.
I can't let all that suffering I've endured for the past two weeks go to waste!
Although Chu Chu imparted her skills to He Yunxiao, she did not teach him specific martial arts moves, and He Yunxiao didn't need to at the moment. He was completely focused, unlike the Yan Kingdom martial artists who filled their entire bodies with internal energy, He Yunxiao chose to concentrate all his internal energy into a single point in his fist.
The difference in internal energy between a ninth-rank master and a grandmaster is too great; it's basically the difference between a basin of water and a pond of water.
If you want to achieve great results with little effort and win big with few resources, you can only break through the surface by focusing on a single point!
The grandmaster's finger sword came rushing towards him, and He Yunxiao also threw a punch to meet the grandmaster's finger sword!
The sword and the fist are getting closer and closer.
It wasn't until the Grandmaster stood before him, until He Yunxiao truly faced the Grandmaster in close combat, that he understood why the Grandmaster was the chosen one of heaven, while the Ninth Rank was not. Even though he was already one of the best among the Ninth Rank, he could still feel an unshakeable pressure like a mountain when facing the Grandmaster.
Even without a fight, the despair was palpable from the very beginning. This is the difference between a ninth-rank official and a grandmaster.
He Yunxiao gritted his teeth, his muscles tense like steel.
Focus more! Focus more!
Mengbao is behind me; I absolutely cannot lose this punch!
The moment their fists collided, He Yunxiao's face contorted in pain.
His entire body roared in unison with his vocal cords!
This punch represents the indomitable spirit of the weak!
"Ah! Break it!"
One foot forward, one foot back, fist retracted and then suddenly punched out!
The calf muscles transmit power to the thigh muscles, the thigh muscles transmit power to the waist muscles, and the waist muscles, along with the twisting motion, transmit power to the arm muscles.
Not only was he concentrating his internal energy, but He Yunxiao was also using all the strength in his body at this moment.
In the instant he threw his punch, he couldn't even feel his body anymore.
The warriors of Yan could sense it.
The middle-aged man was first startled by He Yunxiao's roar, and then he felt as if his fingertips had struck an impenetrable wall.
This kid is actually a body cultivator?
After a slight surprise, the Yan warriors quickly made a decision. Body cultivators use internal energy to temper their bodies, making them tough. However, the drawback is that they have very little internal energy, leaving their bodies empty.
With his fingertips surging with internal energy, the Yan Kingdom martial artist attempted to send his internal energy into He Yunxiao's body to attack him, but he soon discovered that He Yunxiao's internal energy was actually stronger than his own body!
He Yunxiao's internal energy was extremely pure, thick and powerful, almost tangible!
The quality of this internal energy is no less than that of a Grandmaster, so how come this kid is only at the ninth rank?!
His lightness skill was exceptional, his body was physically trained, and his internal energy was refined...
The key is that he's still very young...
The Yan state master was dumbfounded. Was this even human?
It was his shock that gave He Yunxiao the opportunity to counterattack. His ninth-grade internal energy invaded the master's body in reverse, and the contest between fist and finger ended with the fist winning.
The various clashes between high-level martial artists actually happen in the blink of an eye.
"Ah! Break it!"
Immediately following He Yunxiao's shout was the sight of the Yan Kingdom warriors being sent flying backward in a disheveled state.
