"Take out Jing Yuan first!"
With a sharp glint of murder in his eyes, Wang Junze commanded coldly.
Previously, when the Deserters were not involved, dealing with the Four Symbols Sect was the priority. However, now that the Deserters have intervened, winning this battle in conventional terms is impossible.
They could only barely win against the Four Symbols Sect, and facing both sides at once meant no chance of victory.
The only chance of survival was to kill Jing Yuan.
No matter how brilliant Jing Yuan's killing trap was set up, as long as he was here, there was a chance to forcibly draw him into the fray.
During this period, Wang Junze had already established considerable authority within the Profound Moon Sword Sect. At this moment, when other disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect were in despair, Wang Junze's command would undoubtedly make them instinctively obey.
Not to mention, regardless of others, at least Luo Qingxuan trusted Wang Junze completely.
Uttering a crisp shout, Luo Qingxuan instantly abandoned the Four Symbols Sect members and slashed toward Jing Yuan with her sword!
"Kill!"
Almost instantly, the surrounding Deserters positioned themselves in front of Jing Yuan.
Jing Yuan's expression remained unchanged, his lips still bearing mockery.
The idea of killing him was good, but...with the current state of Wang Junze and Luo Qingxuan, it was simply impossible.
Even just the Deserters around now numbered close to a hundred, with more than ten at the Heaven-Stepping Realm, all stationed around Jing Yuan like strong fortifications!
The only piece of good news was that the disciples of the Four Symbols Sect, having suffered earlier, did not intend to help the Deserters besiege the Profound Moon Sword Sect disciples.
The reason was simple: at this moment, the people of the Profound Moon Sword Sect were clearly prepared to fight to the death. If they intervened, they'd risk their lives exchanging blows, unwilling to die on behalf of the Deserters.
They had only negotiated some conditions with the Deserters and hadn't truly pledged allegiance to them, so they couldn't completely take orders from the Deserters. Moreover, didn't the Deserters refrain from helping when they fought hard against the Profound Moon Sword Sect earlier?
The Four Symbols Sect had paid their dues, and now it was time for the Deserters to pay.
Besides, under these circumstances, they no longer believed the Profound Moon Sword Sect had any chance of turning the tide.
"Die for me!"
Just moments ago, Luo Qingxuan had been wary of the Deserters, holding back from unleashing her full strength. But now, facing these Deserters, she truly began to fight desperately.
The sword like a Profound Moon.
The sword in Luo Qingxuan's hand transformed as if into a crescent moon, tearing through the void, disregarding all obstacles, crushing toward Jing Yuan.
Void Shattering is the power of breaking through the void.
Even the void can be torn apart, let alone humans.
In just one sword stroke, at least twenty Deserters were slain, unable even to leave complete corpses behind—slashed into fragments with blood and flesh spraying out.
Among them were many Heaven-Stepping Realm Deserter powerhouses.
Couldn't be stopped!
Facing the full force of Luo Qingxuan, these Deserters were like paper, entirely unable to stall Luo Qingxuan's sword edge.
Luo Qingxuan's might was enough to make anyone tremble.
But... just when Luo Qingxuan was about to reach Jing Yuan, a figure suddenly moved, with a single strike forcibly knocking Luo Qingxuan away!
Ni Liang!
This was a true Path-Entering powerhouse, daring to face even Luo Bingyun in battle, always by Jing Yuan's side, safeguarding Jing Yuan's security, and precisely for his presence did Jing Yuan dare disregard all attacks while leisurely brewing wine.
"It's useless, Luo Qingxuan. Concede, your identity still holds value; I don't want to kill you."
Driving Luo Qingxuan back with a single move, Ni Liang spoke indifferently, eyes filled with contempt.
Above Void Shattering in the Nine Martial Realms is Divine Travel, followed by Entering the Path.
Luo Qingxuan was not just one realm below her opponent but a full two great realms, and such absolute crushing power means no possibility of winning across levels.
Yet, at this moment, Luo Qingxuan had long since put aside thoughts of life and death.
Being unable to win, so what?
At this point, even knowing she was destined to die, she faced death willingly rather than concede or surrender!
With a fierce stomp, the aura within Luo Qingxuan's body surged wildly once more, her Essence Blood and Divine Soul simultaneously igniting, boldly charging at the Deserters before her again.
Fight desperately!
Luo Qingxuan did not continue attacking Ni Liang. Even fighting desperately, she couldn't possibly kill a Path-Entering powerhouse—unrealistic, but she could maximize striking down surrounding Deserters!
Even in death, she must drag these Deserters into the grave with her!
"You brought this death upon yourself, don't blame me!"
Seeing Luo Qingxuan's refusal to give up, a glint of murder also emerged in Ni Liang's eyes, his figure subtly flickering like a phantom, advancing toward Luo Qingxuan to kill her.
This time, Ni Liang showed no mercy, preparing to directly slay Luo Qingxuan.
The strike likewise reached unparalleled speed, even with Luo Qingxuan's strength, there was no way she could withstand it.
However, just as Ni Liang approached Luo Qingxuan, a sword aura suddenly slashed down from the void, forcibly striking Ni Liang away!
Luo Bingyun!
In the nick of time, on another battlefield, Luo Bingyun finally triumphed, heavily wounding Liu Wangchuan, and slashing Void Shattering to stand before Ni Liang, blocking the lethal strike!
"A feeble being like you wants to kill my Saintess of Profound Moon?"
With a cold murder glint in her eyes, Luo Bingyun spoke grimly: "Today, I will kill you!"
Even Ni Liang's pupils constricted slightly, at this moment a hint of apprehension crossed his mind.
He had known earlier that Luo Bingyun was strong, but hadn't realized that in such a short time, Luo Bingyun could defeat Liu Wangchuan—this level of strength indeed seemed absurdly powerful.
He even momentarily questioned Jing Yuan.
If they had acted earlier, joining forces with Liu Wangchuan, even if they couldn't kill Luo Bingyun outright, at least they could severely injure her, preventing the situation from falling to this dire state.
Jing Yuan's calculations ended up backfiring now, didn't they?
Reflexively glancing at Jing Yuan's direction, he found Jing Yuan's face still wearing a gentle smile, as though even in such circumstances, there was nothing that could affect his mood.
"You of the Four Symbols Sect, not stepping in now, truly want to see me die?"
Looking up, Jing Yuan spoke with calmness: "If I die, everything previously said becomes void, and...don't expect to walk out of the Extreme North Wilderness alive either!"
Jing Yuan's words immediately caused the disciples of the Four Symbols Sect to curse in frustration.
How shameless!
Forcing them to intervene once more.
Yet, frustratingly, they knew Jing Yuan was not wrong: things had reached this point, there was no turning back for them. If Jing Yuan truly died here, the Divine Court would surely hunt them down relentlessly, and ultimately, they might end up like the disciples of the Profound Moon Sword Sect.
Helplessly, the disciples of the Four Symbols Sect had no choice but to strike again, targeting Luo Qingxuan.
No need to worry about Luo Bingyun; as long as they killed Luo Qingxuan, it would all be over.
