A burst of rage erupts this month for the tenth time! The tenth update arrives! Jun Wu Yi unleashed all the accumulated grief and negative emotions from the past decade in this single moment!
He struck punch after punch, and the brutal sound of flesh hitting flesh was, to Jun Wu Yi’s ears, the most beautiful music in the world! Just as Xiao Han had initially decided not to kill Jun Wu Yi with a single sword strike, preferring to keep him alive for slow torment, Jun Wu Yi would absolutely not dispatch Xiao Han with a single punch! That would be far too easy for him!
Ten years of hatred—the deaths of his elder brother and second brother, the tragic loss of his two heroic young nephews, his sister-in-law still lying in a coma, his elderly father forced again and again to bury his sons, having lived long enough to see his children die before him, the once-prosperous Jun family now teetering on collapse! This mountain of vengeance, this ocean of hatred—all of it stemmed from this man. How could the simple death of Xiao Han possibly suffice?
Wouldn't that be letting him off too lightly! Jun Wu Yi had never hated anyone as fiercely as he hated Xiao Han! Even his other enemies—the heartless human traffickers he had encountered, the relentlessly wicked bullies, Guan Zhong, whom Third Master had killed with a single sword stroke—were dealt with sufficiently, but for Xiao Han, Jun Wu Yi felt it was not enough, far from enough!
If it were possible, Jun Wu Yi almost didn't want to kill him! He wanted to keep him and slowly torture him for a lifetime! Inflicting the pain of the eighteen layers of hell upon him daily!
Yet, even then, Third Master felt it wouldn't be enough! A long sword, trailing a dazzling, cold light, plummeted from the sky. The blade sliced through the air and landed precisely onto a large stone by the roadside, sinking in with a crisp "chah!" It drove straight in, leaving only the hilt exposed.
It was Jun Wu Yi's own sword! ... Stone What a sharp and formidable weapon!
Such a natural descent, yet it pierced the hard stone as if it were tofu, right down to the hilt. What kind of divine weapon was this! Nearly every martial artist watching the longsword’s descent saw fiery greed flare in their eyes!
Even Ying Bo Kong, who never used a sword, was no exception! It had to be said: the fact that Jun Wu Yi’s leg had long since recovered completely stunned everyone present in Silver City! Before they could recover from this shock, Xiao Han was already enduring a storm of blows!
“Insolent brat!” Just then, the onlookers snapped out of their astonishment. Xiao Bu Yu roared in anger, leaping forward! His hand moved like a colossal sky-splitting axe, cleaving down towards Jun Wu Yi!
If Jun Wu Yi had killed Xiao Han with one sword strike, Xiao Bu Yu would certainly have been heartbroken and enraged, but he would have lacked the standing to intervene immediately. They were engaged in a duel to the death. However, Jun Wu Yi, clearly holding the advantage, was deliberately prolonging the agony instead of ending it quickly, which was a direct insult to the prestige of Ice and Snow Silver City, and the Xiao family’s honor.
How could Xiao Bu Yu stand by and watch! “Old fossil! You truly are shameless!” Following a sudden roar, a figure appeared before Xiao Bu Yu with startling abruptness and eerie speed.
A cold, gleaming longsword flashed out, stabbing lightning-fast toward his throat without any warning. Before the sword arrived, the chilling sword energy alone raised a thick layer of goosebumps on Xiao Bu Yu’s throat. A sharp killing intent, so keen it seemed capable of splitting the heavens and the earth, enveloped him!
A Divine Weapon! Another Divine Weapon! Xiao Bu Yu was greatly alarmed.
How could the Jun family possess so many divine weapons! Although the body of a Divine Profound expert was harder than refined steel and impervious to ordinary weapons, facing this divine sword slashing across the air, Xiao Bu Yu suddenly felt his life was as fragile as tofu! This was the instinctual precursor to death!
Xiao Bu Yu dared not delay. His rapidly advancing body violently shifted course, sweeping sideways like lightning, leaving long, trailing afterimages. He then shot upward, putting himself high in the air, believing he was far out of the attacker's range, finally granting him the leisure to see who this person was.
But upon seeing this person, Xiao Bu Yu nearly tumbled out of the sky! He violently rubbed his eyes, looked again, and the sight remained the same! He couldn't help but open his mouth wide, just like his grandson, unable to close it for a long moment!
This—this was impossible! A young, proud figure, wielding a longsword radiating cold light, floated before him with a disdainful sneer! Jun Mo Xie!
The longsword in Jun Mo Xie’s hand was precisely the— Divine Sword! Blood of Yan Huang! Young Master Jun was quite pleased.
If the first life taken by the Blood of Yan Huang was that of a Divine Profound expert to consecrate the sword’s first staining, then the renown of the Blood of Yan Huang would not have been wasted! “Xiao family old fossil, have you no shame? This is a one-on-one duel between men; how dare you interfere?
What kind of Divine Profound expert are you!” Jun Mo Xie sneered: “Your grandson said this was a battle in the name of men. May I ask the Second Master of Wind and Snow Silver City, what exactly does fighting in the name of men mean in your city? Does it mean winners take all, or are you planning a gang-up?” Xiao Bu Yu’s white beard fluttered as he coldly snorted: “Sharp tongue, boy!” He spread his hands, and fierce, cold winds rose, rushing toward Jun Mo Xie.
After the initial shock, Xiao Bu Yu quickly calmed his mind. Jun Mo Xie, though a heaven-sent genius, was only seventeen or eighteen. How powerful could he truly be?
Even if the longsword was sharp, so what? Once I beat this arrogant brat to the ground, this longsword will be mine! At this moment, the importance of that divine weapon— Jun Mo Xie let out a cold laugh.
His body flickered in and out of sight; his longsword pointed east and struck west. Facing Xiao Bu Yu, a Divine Profound Fourth Grade expert of Silver City, he actually seized the initiative to attack! Sword lights scattered like stars falling from the firmament, brilliant and dazzling.
Although Xiao Bu Yu had reached the level of Divine Profound Fourth Grade, nearly the closest existence to a Supreme Expert, he was still beneath the notice of Young Master Jun. With the Divine Sword Blood of Yan Huang in hand, the Young Master’s strength had more than doubled. Coupled with the fact that the Young Master’s inherent strength could not be judged by ordinary Heaven Profound standards, the Young Master fought Xiao Bu Yu single-handedly and did not concede the slightest ground.
He even held the upper hand! At this moment, night finally descended upon the earth! The comprehensive battle had officially begun!
On the other side, Ying Bo Kong’s figure, like an eagle soaring in the sky, shot forward with lightning speed, using his individual might to block the Seven Swords of Silver City! His Supreme rank prestige forced the Seven Swords of Silver City to dare not split up! Each of them possessed the strength of the peak of Heaven Profound.
Originally, they were no match for Ying Bo Kong; only by relying on the combined sword formation of the seven could they barely keep pace with him. If any one of them slipped up, the remaining six would likely all perish under Ying Bo Kong's hands within the time it takes to brew a pot of tea. The battle reached a temporary stalemate.
As the remaining five elders prepared to step in to aid the fight, they suddenly felt an inexplicable tightening around them, an inexplicable killing intent locking onto them. This sudden, overwhelming killing intent was immense and vast, seeming to fill everything from heaven to earth with its terrifying aura! But the strangest thing was that absolutely no one knew where this killing intent originated, who released it, or how it had locked onto them.
The green-clad girl was watching the show with great interest, so clearly it wasn't her. The white-clad girl had her back to the five elders and was still leisurely sipping tea—it wasn't her either! Then, who was it?
Who possessed such terrifying power!? But no matter who it was, this person's strength clearly surpassed that of ordinary Supreme Experts, perhaps even reaching the level of Absolute Heaven Supreme! The five elders were only at the ordinary Divine Profound level.
Facing this fierce aura, they all stood frozen, each mobilizing every shred of energy they could muster, desperately resisting the incursion of this killing intent. For a time, let alone aiding Xiao Han or the Seven Swords, they could not move a single finger! And they dared not move!
Because everyone had a clear feeling: if they didn't make a move, it was fine; but if they did, none of the five would live to see the next moment! Now, refraining from action would only result in Xiao Han’s death at most. If they acted rashly, their entire force could be annihilated!
This was not a threat, but a fact! That colossal aura told them the absolute truth of the situation! The green-clad girl, Snake King, widened her eyes in astonishment.
Among everyone present, only she knew the source of this killing intent! The world was filled with countless masters, but someone who could manipulate even such an ethereal aura with such ease—Snake King had only ever met one in her life! It was her Eldest Sister!
What was going on? Big Sister clearly hated Jun Mo Xie so much, so why was she helping him now? This was truly a baffling matter!
Even with Snake King's extraordinary intellect, she could rack her brain and not figure out the reason! Jun Mo Xie battled Xiao Bu Yu. The Young Master’s movement technique was supremely nimble and fluid; soaring in the air, darting forward, backward, left, and right.
Xiao Bu Yu, his face grim, met the attacks with sweeping palm winds. At this moment, it defied all expectations. This rumored wastrel young master of the Jun family was not only matching Xiao Bu Yu, Silver City’s Divine Profound expert renowned for over sixty years, in a one-on-one duel, but he was also commanding seventy percent of the offensive momentum!
Xiao Bu Yu maintained a calm facade, but inside, he was utterly shocked! He had never experienced a battle like this in his entire life! Even during occasional sparring matches with the Old City Lord Han Feng Xue, he never felt as constrained and surrounded by danger as he did now!
Had his life ceased to be under his own control! This young man opposite him gave him such an intense feeling of peril! This young man’s movement technique was beyond strange.
He had absolutely no way to predict where the youth would appear next, and he never gave Xiao Bu Yu the chance to meet any strike head-on. The duration of time the youth’s figure appeared in any given position was exceedingly brief, and it was always at the point where Xiao Bu Yu found it hardest to exert power, the most uncomfortable positions. And invariably, at such moments, a sword move never before seen would launch a counter-attack!
This young man’s sword techniques were exquisite to the extreme, far beyond anything Xiao Bu Yu could imagine. Every move was incomparably sharp, every stance filled with killing intent! Yet, he had never seen any of them before, like looking for tracks where a swan has landed—impossible to trace!
But every attack zeroed in on his weaknesses! Given the foundation of Wind and Snow Silver City, they possessed records of nearly all the exquisite martial arts techniques in the world, and most were contained within the Silver City martial arts archives, complete with corresponding countermeasures. Yet, the young man before him had already changed his sword styles more than a dozen times consecutively, and he recognized none of them!
Let alone having a counter for them! This was simply beyond comprehension!
