After being chased after my engagement was broken off, my Iron Shirt skill instantly reached max lev

Chapter 19 Slaying a Rank 7

Don't dare?

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan remained silent, and with a swift and powerful sword strike, he had already reached Lin Shuang's brow.

But Li Cangshan was even faster. Almost as soon as he roared, he struck Li Xiuyuan with a palm strike from a distance.

At this moment, Li Cangshan, a seventh-rank martial artist, was using the Li family's strongest martial art, the "Three Thousand Overlapping Waves Palm".

With a single palm strike, the blow landed on Li Xiuyuan in an instant.

This palm strike also caused the fatal sword that was originally meant to pierce Lin Shuang's head to shift its position.

"Pfft!"

The cold, longsword pierced straight through Lin Shuang's left shoulder.

"what……"

Almost the instant the sword pierced Lin Shuang's left shoulder, Li Cangshan struck out with his palm again.

At the same time, another eighth-rank guard standing to the side had already swung his sword and slashed at Li Xiuyuan's back.

"Buzz" "Clang"...

The sounds of metal clashing and palm strikes landing on the body almost simultaneously rang out.

Although he had maxed out his Iron Shirt skill and wouldn't be seriously injured, Li Xiuyuan was still in a tough spot facing fierce attacks from both the front and the rear.

He gritted his teeth, drew his sword sharply, and took a few steps back.

"Young Master Lin, are you alright?"

Li Cangshan stepped forward and helped Lin Shuang up, then took a dozen steps back before asking her with concern.

Lin Shuang is the young master of the Lin family in Yunzhou. If he dies in the Li family in Yuanguang City, the Li family will probably be wiped out in a few days.

It was all too fast just now, so fast that Lin Shuang didn't even have time to dodge. Even with Li Cangshan's quick reaction, he could only avoid that fatal sword strike.

Lin Shuang pressed her hand against her left shoulder, which was bleeding profusely.

He glared venomously at Li Xiuyuan, who had retreated and charged into the encirclement of the Li family guards, and said coldly:

"Capture him alive! I still have a use for him!"

"I know, Young Master Lin. You just watch from the side. That little beast Li Xiuyuan has no chance of escaping today."

Li Cangshan glanced at his son Li Ming's head, which he had placed on a chair beside him, and then looked coldly at Li Xiuyuan.

"Surround him and cut off his limbs! Don't let this little beast die so easily!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Li Cangshan and the eighth-rank guard holding a long sword exchanged a glance, and the two of them immediately headed towards Li Xiuyuan.

*Pfft!*

Puff puff……

But Li Xiuyuan didn't take the Li family guards who surrounded him seriously at all. Most of them were ordinary martial artists who hadn't yet reached the required rank.

In Li Xiuyuan's eyes, who is now at the peak of the eighth rank, it is as simple as cutting melons and vegetables.

With his maxed-out Iron Shirt skill, Li Xiuyuan ignored all sword and blade attacks and charged forward.

The Li family guards who surrounded them were reduced to corpses in just a few breaths.

At this moment, Li Xiuyuan, covered in blood, grabbed the head of a ninth-rank guard and squeezed hard with his five fingers.

With a "bang," his entire head exploded like a watermelon.

After absorbing the internal energy of several ninth-grade cultivators, Li Xiuyuan's previously depleted internal energy was fully restored. Furthermore, after consuming several Qi and Blood Pills, his internal energy and blood energy reached their peak.

Although covered in blood, the ground around him was littered with corpses with severed limbs.

But when he looked at the four people standing in front of him, he had a hint of amusement in his eyes.

Yes, only for a moment.

Only Li Cangshan, Li Cangyun, Lin Shuang, and a ninth-rank guard who had been standing by Li Cangyun's side to protect him remained in the entire council hall.

The rest of them had become corpses lying on the ground!

"this……"

"Li Xiuyuan, how did you suddenly become so strong? Eighth Rank... you're actually at the peak of the eighth rank!"

Li Cangshan's eyes widened.

He couldn't help but exclaim in surprise, completely shocked by the bloody scene of slaughter he had just witnessed.

Previously, he had only heard that Li Xiuyuan was invulnerable to swords and blades and had inexhaustible strength.

At this moment, Li Cangshan was completely convinced. After all, he had just seen Li Xiuyuan ignore all sword and blade attacks. Even when Li Xiuyuan was hit by his palm strikes, he only coughed up two mouthfuls of blood before continuing to maintain his peak condition and kill wildly.

"Good, good... very good... Li Xiuyuan, as long as you hand over the cultivation technique, I can guarantee that I will not only spare your life, but also recommend you to join the Falling Sword Sect."

Miss Wanqing is the number one genius senior sister of my Luojian Sect. How could you go from an ordinary person to the peak of the eighth rank in such a short time?

Perhaps in the future I'll catch Miss Wanqing's eye, and then your engagement might not necessarily have to be called off.

At this moment, Lin Shuang looked at Li Xiuyuan, who was standing there covered in blood, and felt no fear, but rather excitement and agitation.

He roared with rage in his heart.

No wonder the ancestor summoned me and assigned me such a task.

It turns out that Shangguan Xiuhong brought out a mysterious martial arts technique from the Shangguan family that could quickly improve one's martial arts cultivation.

I must get it no matter what!

As for Li Xiuyuan, once he obtains the cultivation technique, he can simply be killed, along with the rest of the Li family.

The secret of this technique must never be revealed!

As she thought this, Lin Shuang looked at the few people still standing with undisguised greed and excitement in her eyes.

"Li Xiuyuan, didn't you hear what Young Master Lin said? As long as you hand over the cultivation technique, Young Master Lin will recommend you to join the Falling Sword Sect, and you may even have the opportunity to fulfill your marriage contract with Miss Wanqing in the future."

"Hurry up and hand over the martial arts technique!"

Li Cangyun immediately shouted, but as he spoke, he had already taken another step back, retreating behind everyone.

"Li Xiuyuan, I order you to hand over the cultivation technique immediately, or else..."

Li Cangshan was naturally tempted at this moment, and the idea of ​​snatching the cultivation technique, killing everyone present, and then getting away from Yuan Guangcheng flashed through his mind.

Although it was only for a moment, Li Cangshan felt it wasn't impossible.

After all, among the people standing here, he was a seventh-rank official, easily crushing everyone in front of him.

"Idiot!"

Li Xiuyuan uttered only two words before he was already in front of the eighth-rank guard, piercing his chest with a sword and grabbing his head.

"Master, save..."

The eighth-rank guard had barely opened his mouth when Li Cangshan's swift palm strike landed on him.

Of course, it wasn't that Li Cangshan wanted to kill him, but rather that when Li Xiuyuan made his move, Li Cangshan also attacked with all his might at the same time.

Having grasped this point, Li Xiuyuan seized the moment when the eighth-rank guard was about to strike, and used his body to block Li Cangshan's palm strike.

"puff……"

The moment the palm strike landed, Li Xiuyuan had already activated his Absorption Technique to directly absorb one-third of the eighth-rank guard's internal energy.

"Li Xiuyuan, you'd better die!"

Missing his first strike, Li Cangshan raised his hand and struck Li Xiuyuan's head with another palm.

Faced with such a terrifying palm strike, Li Xiuyuan's blood and qi suddenly exploded, and a violent power instantly filled his entire body.

The clothes, which had already been hacked to pieces, were instantly shattered into pieces by this force, revealing Li Xiuyuan's solid muscles and blood-stained upper body.

Facing Li Cangshan's almost full-force palm strike, Li Xiuyuan roared, turned to the side, clenched his left fist, bent it, and raised it to forcefully catch the palm strike.

A surge of violent internal energy erupted from his right hand, and a blood-red sword light flashed on the sharp longsword.

Almost the instant Li Cangshan's fierce palm struck the raised left arm with a clenched fist, a blood-red sword light flashed across Li Cangshan's neck.

"puff……"

Li Xiuyuan took a few steps back, staggered, and then plunged his longsword into the marble floor with his right hand to regain his balance.

Immediately afterwards, he spat out a mouthful of blood, and the excruciating pain from his entire left arm made Li Xiuyuan grimace.

I felt as if the bones in my left arm had been torn apart by the shock, and even the slightest movement caused excruciating pain.

But just as Li Xiuyuan spat out a mouthful of blood...

Standing there, Li Cangshan, his face full of astonishment, suddenly had a "whoosh" sound as a spurt of blood gushed out from his neck.

"You...you..."

Li Cangshan immediately reached out in horror to cover the neck that was bleeding profusely!
