Two Extremes Bounce My Sword, this is the Xuanyin Sixth Sword. It borrows the rebound of Xuanyin Sword Qi to accumulate the power to break extremes.
But the Two Extremes Bounce My Sword appearing in the small woods now is not simply Extreme Yin Sword Qi, but Yin Yang Mutual Exclusion, Two Extremes Bounce Sword.
The Sword Qi with unmatched sword momentum instantly pierced through Qin Xihai's chest, its remaining force not diminishing, shooting towards the Four Gentlemen who were protecting her.
With the Thunder Sword in front and strong enemies behind, the Four Gentlemen's Sword Qi was relentless. The four swords united to slightly obstruct the Thunder Sword, their shadows split into four, rushing in all directions.
With another strong enemy joining in, the Four Gentlemen realized there was no chance of victory. In such a case, escaping became the priority. As for Qin Xihai, she was severely injured and unlikely to escape alive. Staying might still leave room for the enemy to capture her, keeping her alive, but fleeing meant death.
Known for swift decisions, the Four Gentlemen had already decided in those fleeting moments. But with Sword Maiden and others setting an ambush again, how could they not be prepared?
"You can't escape, everyone, ally your strength!" Sword Maiden shouted.
As soon as she finished speaking, two strands of Xuanyin Sword Qi shot out from Sword Maiden, and simultaneously, Ji Tang, Blood Bat No.1, and a newly appeared fourth person all launched their Sword Qi together.
Five strands of Sword Qi sealed the four directions, transforming into ferocious sword snakes, viciously devouring their targets.
"Five Swords Converge: Sword Prison Locking Four Directions."
The five Xuanyin Sword Snakes moved and pierced, the dark green sword shadows flashed by, instantly piercing through the four shadows. However, they did not strike the true bodies of the Four Gentlemen.
"Boom——"
Sand and stones splashed as a figure suddenly emerged from underground, trying to break out of the sword snake's lock. But before he moved three feet, the Xuanyin Sword Snakes encircled, sealing off the space around him.
"Sizzle······"
Amidst the cold buzzing of Sword Qi, the Xuanyin Sword Snakes pounced like spiritual snakes hunting, the suddenly shot dark green sword shadows took away the Four Gentlemen's limbs and head, leaving only a torso falling onto the sandy ground.
Blood splashed on the nearby Qin Xihai's face, dyeing her beautiful visage blood red. Qin Xihai powerlessly gritted her teeth, struggling to turn her gaze towards the fourth enemy who appeared halfway.
A pitch-black cloak covered the body, faintly revealing the dark green sword attire inside, unmistakably another Xuanyin Sword Guard. But the Sword Qi this person displayed was different from Sword Maiden and others.
In a flash of thought, a spirit light flickered and disappeared, but Qin Xihai caught the glimpse of that spirit light.
"Pure Yang Sword Qi, you are Yun Zheng!" Qin Xihai shouted in astonishment.
During the Debating Conference at Taizhen Palace back then, Qin Xihai had disguised as a Mingxuan Temple member with Pei Dongliu and infiltrated, witnessing the Pure Yang Sword Qi of Chunyang Palace. Especially now, the current Pure Yang Palace Master Yun Zheng, Qin Xihai saw him battling Zhu Kong with her own eyes.
The previous attack was with full force, thus exposing his foundation to Qin Xihai, who recognized the combination of Pure Yang Sword Qi and Xuanyin Sword Qi.
Additionally, Pure Yang Palace Master Yun Zheng had joined the Taiping Association and had been in Ling Province for some time.
"Divine Constable Qin, sharp-eyed as expected for the foster daughter of the former Divine Constable. Unfortunately······"
"You made the wrong choice in opposing the Mirror Master."
Yun Zheng removed his hood, revealing a handsome face, and said calmly.
"The Six Gates' Divine Constable, offending the Mirror Master is a death sentence. I heard you and the current Divine Constable Ning Wuming are lovers, rest assured, Ning Wuming will soon come to find you. You won't be alone in the underworld."
As soon as Sword Maiden finished speaking, the chilling Sword Light flickered, and the beauty perished.
"Dig three feet into the ground, erase all Qi mechanisms and traces, burn the woods." Sword Maiden commanded.
Murder and arson, a good tradition passed down from the head, Qing Yu. As long as the fire burns fiercely enough, no traces will be left.
Qing Yu wanted to distract Ning Wuming, naturally needed to create some suspense, making Ning Wuming spend more time searching.
However, to burn the body of a True Core Realm Martial Artist, the fire must not be small, Ji Tang and Blood Bat No.1 will be quite busy.
·························
Outside the Zhenwu Seven Peaks, Divine Captors Master Ning Wuming from the Six Gates, who was leading the surveillance, suddenly frowned, feeling his right eyelid twitching incessantly.
At the same time, a strong sense of foreboding rose within him, making his heart feel heavy.
"What's wrong?" Leng Kuangtu asked upon seeing Ning Wuming's strange expression.
"It's nothing," Ning Wuming shook his head, "just a sense of foreboding."
Thinking for a moment, Ning Wuming said, "Stay vigilant, keep an eye on Zhenwu Sect, there's no way Qing Yu can slip past under our eyes. Even if he leaves, ensure we track him. I have a feeling Qing Yu might make a move."
Though young, Qing Yu's mind and schemes are not inferior to some seasoned old monsters, perhaps even superior. Despite Ning Wuming's provocations these past days, Zhenwu Sect remained motionless.
This unsettling calmness makes one feel dreadfully anxious.
Truth be told, having this ominous feeling now, Ning Wuming felt somewhat relieved. It's better to have the enemy act than have them not act.
The current situation is not what Ning Wuming desired. He wants Qing Yu to make a move, even engage with him. This way, he can achieve his goal, pin the Nine Heavens label on Qing Yu.
Certainly, if he could truly confirm Qing Yu as one of the Nine Heavens, that would be ideal.
"Truly blatant and unyielding."
Inside the Taiji Palace, Qing Yu waved away the images before him, smiling enigmatically.
The Six Gates' actions are getting bolder, boldly surveilling Zhenwu Sect now. Ning Wuming has spared no manpower or resources, deploying a warning array around the expansive Zhenwu Seven Peaks, blatantly without any cover-up.
"The sect's disciples are full of resentment, all feeling that the Six Gates are bullying us too much. Many disciples think of going down to teach the Six Gates a lesson." Xuanzhen said.
"No worry, it's a minor matter," Qing Yu gestured dismissively, "Let the sect disciples abide. They are all from the Taoist sect, those who joined early should have a more humble mindset.
Moreover, don't mind Ning Wuming's aggressive stance now, in a few days, he'll have something to cry about."
Zhenwu Sect is merely feeling uncomfortable because of surveillance, maybe a bit of face is lost, but Ning Wuming? His situation is much worse, honestly.
We've suffered minor grievances without much loss, but Ning Wuming lost his love!
So, we should somewhat empathize with him.
"Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, the sect disciples shouldn't go out, it might be hard to return quickly. Let those restless disciples help make mooncakes, to ensure there's enough to eat tomorrow." Qing Yu said with a smile.
The members of Zhenwu Sect are orphans, developing habits not found in many other sects. Like distributing mooncakes during the Mid-Autumn Festival, is one of them.
