Eternal Saber

Chapter 48: Together Through Life and Death


Lu Qing waved his sleeve and threw out several thumb-sized pills. They flew through the air for a moment before suddenly exploding, forming several masses of pink mist.

"Be careful!"

"They're poisonous!"

Several Fifth Grade experts exclaimed in alarm, quickly holding their breath, covering their faces, and dodging to the side.

Lu Qing followed with her sword, transforming into a mass of sword light, her figure hidden within it as she swept toward a thicket of spears thrusting toward her!

Clang clang clang!

The sound of metal clashing rang incessantly!

That soft sword was incredibly sharp, slicing through metal like mud. Wherever the sword light passed, a row of spearheads was completely severed.

The sword light danced across several Bingzhou Soldiers, instantly exploding into countless blade shadows, and a burst of blood mist erupted on the battlefield!

A few Bingzhou Soldiers fell to the ground.

But before Lu Qing could break through, more Bingzhou Soldiers swarmed in, surrounding her!

Just as Lu Qing was about to charge forward, several streaks of white light rapidly approached, moving with lightning speed, just in her peripheral vision.

Again, it was those Mystic Masters!

Lu Qing was frustrated, hastily stopping and dodging once more.

Without eliminating those Mystic Masters, she couldn't escape!

The Fifth Grade experts, having circumvented the poison mist, charged at her again.

Even more Inner Qi experts rushed over, and her situation grew increasingly dire!

Although Lu Qianshan and his wife fled in different directions, each trying to save themselves, their minds were constantly preoccupied with Lu Qing, concerned about the situation on her side.

Seeing Lu Qing constantly in peril, their hearts leaped with anxiety!

The situation for the couple was no better than Lu Qing's.

Lu Qianshan, with only Sixth Grade cultivation, was not enthusiastic about martial arts.

He faced the situation calmly, resigned to the fact that he could not escape today.

Madam Lu, though possessing formidable Martial Arts skills, barely managed to carve a bloody path with her sword. However, with pursuers at their heels, turning back to aid Lu Qing would surely lead to encirclement.

In such a scenario, their entire family would be captured.

"Madam Lu, your daughter's beauty has truly captured my heart."

Sun Gu grinned widely, shouting, "You needn't worry. In my hands, I, Sun Gu, would never let her come to harm. I will cherish her well."

"How dare you!"

Madam Lu's face turned as cold as frost, her figure halting abruptly as she sharply turned around!

Sun Gu's smile grew wider.

Madam Lu knew Sun Gu was deliberately provoking her, yet worry clouded her mind, making it difficult to remain calm and rational.

She couldn't imagine, nor did she dare to, what fate awaited Lu Qing if she fell into the hands of such people!

Yuan Qingmo's face was somber, his body trembling slightly.

If he had power, if he commanded his own forces, today would not end this way.

Changsun Ming's eyes were bloodshot, panting heavily.

If his cultivation were a bit higher, just a bit higher, he wouldn't be watching Lu Qing endure such an assault, while he stood impotently by.

At this moment, Lu Qing appeared so alone and helpless.

Who could aid her?

"Haitang?"

After a moment, though Changsun Ming's acupoints hadn't been relieved, he managed to murmur.

Murong Haitang was beside him, seeing his agony, a trace of pity arose in her heart.

If I were in danger, would Senior Brother be this anxious?

Hearing Changsun Ming call her, Murong Haitang hurried forward, asking, "Senior Brother, did you call me?"

"Not you."

Changsun Ming's gaze searched the battlefield, seemingly looking for something, murmuring, "It's my brother Haitang, he, he might be able to help Lu Qing..."

The battlefield was in chaos, figures flitted through the mist, and there was no sign of Chen Tang.

Murong Haitang pouted and said, "Senior Brother, that family is the remnants of the previous dynasty, descendants of Emperor Wu. Who dares to help them? What brother Haitang has long fled amidst the chaos."

Changsun Ming failed to find Chen Tang, a trace of disappointment forming on his face as he let out a bitter smile.

Indeed.

He came from the Changsun Clan, with such a substantial background and support.

Yuan Qingmo hailed from the Royal Family, a bona fide prince.

Both of them could stand with Lu Qing without fear, risking their safety, but what did Haitang have?

Stepping out to help Lu Qing now would be tantamount to courting death.

Changsun Ming softly uttered, "Brother Haitang is only Seventh Grade; he wouldn't be of much help, easier for him to leave."

"Youthful gallantry, befriending heroes of the five capitals!"

At that moment, a clear voice suddenly echoed across the battlefield.

Changsun Ming shook all over.

It was Brother Haitang!

Yuan Qingmo's eyes brightened, following the sound.

Beyond Mist Rain Village, the heads of several Mystic Masters suddenly soared into the air, blood spraying everywhere!

The next moment, a tall figure sprang from the bushes, wielding a long knife, advancing toward the remaining Mystic Masters, slashing straight away!

The blade rose and fell!

Blood flashed.

As the words resounded, in the blink of an eye, all the Mystic Masters besieging Lu Qing lay dead!

With Chen Tang, dealing with these Mystic Masters was like slaughtering chickens!

The flying swords that had been assaulting Lu Qing fell to the ground without their masters.

The pressure on Lu Qing significantly eased.

"Haitang!"

Lu Qing was both surprised and delighted.

Yuan Qingmo's expression was one of excitement, repeatedly exclaiming, "Good, good, good!"

"Youthful gallantry, befriending heroes of the five capitals..."

Zong Zhulan of the Vermilion Bird Bureau, supporting Yuan Qingmo, muttered softly, looking at the figure in the battlefield, secretly nodding: "To still dare to draw the blade now truly deserves the description of youthful gallantry."

In an instant, Chen Tang was rushing toward Lu Qing's direction.

"Kill him!"

Six Cyan Dragon Guards immediately turned, shouting, and headed to block Chen Tang from behind.

"Courage that pierces the sky, hair standing on end!"

Chen Tang was utterly unafraid, facing the sword blades of the Sixth and Seventh Grade Cyan Dragon Guards, not avoiding or dodging, he let out a long howl, instantly entering the Divine Illumination State, slashing six times!
