Chapter 16: A Move More Skillful Than the Other
"The poison incense has been replaced with ordinary sleeping incense?" Jiang Wei's eyebrows furrowed into crescent shapes, and tears welled up in his eyes.
Those were tears of joy.
He looked at Yang Jiuli, his heart filled with immense excitement, as if he had survived a catastrophe.
"Ninth Young Master is truly shrewd and calculating!" Jiang Wei murmured in the end, finally putting his mind at ease.
There was no poisoning.
Then he won't die!
"Haha, we're not poisoned! Haha! We're not poisoned!"
"Bewitching incense...did you hear that? It's just bewitching incense!" The cultivators at the Knight Realm shouted to each other.
They were truly terrified.
If they were truly poisoned by the Xuanming Nether Python, their lives would be in the hands of others, and they would never have any freedom again.
As for the bewitching incense, even experts at the Master Realm can suppress it, keeping their minds clear, though they will feel slightly weak.
"Ninth Brother is truly a talent!" Tang Yifan said, holding an iron fan and looking at Yang Jiuli with admiration.
"This guy... is something else!" Qin Zhixue whispered from the other side.
During yesterday's meeting, she had already sensed that Yang Jiuli was warning her that there would be great chaos today.
But this guy is so inconsiderate; he didn't even mention that Yang Lin was a traitor.
But then I thought, if I told others now, I would definitely give myself away and it wouldn't be as realistic.
Immediately, Qin Zhixue looked at Yang Jiuli with even greater respect, her eyes sparkling.
With such a profound mind, Yang Jiuli is sure to shine brightly on his future journey in the martial arts world.
"That old fox Yang Xuan has given birth to a little fox!" Tang Yuan said with a hint of envy.
Qin Shisan nodded slightly and also looked at Yang Jiuli with newfound respect.
However, after just one glance, they locked onto Wei Zhan.
Now that they have confirmed that none of their people have been poisoned, they have no more worries.
"Kill!" Yang Xuan spoke first, the word "kill" exploding from his mouth like a thunderclap.
The next instant, Yang Xuan touched the ground with his foot, and his body shot towards Wei Zhan in front of him like a cannonball.
He held a short spear and thrust it towards Wei Zhan's heart meridian. A chilling aura burst forth from the spear, like a snake spitting its tongue.
Almost simultaneously.
Tang Yuan, who was located on the left side of the entrance to the palace, leaped out and instantly appeared about ten feet in front of Wei Zhan.
He held the Five Tiger Soul-Severing Blade in his hand and slashed down with it.
The blade energy surged forth, about to touch the purple bell formed from true energy beside Wei Zhan in an instant.
Qin Shisan, standing to the right of the palace gate, also leaped up, his body wielding the Autumn Water Sword, and thrust it towards Wei Zhan's right side like a startled rainbow.
Wei Zhan's expression changed drastically. Purple energy surged beneath his feet as he used the lightness skill "Ascending to Heaven Step".
He leaped into the air above the mourning hall as if he were growing from the ground, dodging the three men's thunderous attack.
At the same time, Wei Zhan wielded his soft sword, unleashing two arcs of light that slashed at Yang Xuan and Tang Yuan, whose attack had missed.
In addition, Wei Zhan also threw two Thunderfire Pearls from his sleeve at Qin Shisan.
Yang Xuan immediately dodged the sword arc.
Tang Yuan used the Five Tiger Soul-Severing Blade to parry and block the purple sword arc.
boom!
On the other side, two Thunderfire Pearls collided and immediately exploded, unleashing a powerful burst of flames.
Qin Shisan dodged and immediately retreated three meters to the side, his long sword flashing as it formed a protective aura around him.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Wei Zhan moved and immediately flew out of the mourning hall.
Now that Yang Lin is dead, Wei Zhan alone is clearly no match for three grandmasters, and any delay will lead to his death.
Therefore, he chose to retreat.
Whoosh, whoosh!
As soon as Wei Zhan flew out of the mourning hall, a whooshing sound rang out.
But then he saw three arrows, as thick as spears, shooting towards him.
Outside the mourning hall, three Shadow Guards pushed a giant crossbow and fired three arrows.
These giant crossbows have a single wheel underneath, which can operate flexibly.
Wei Zhan immediately took up his soft sword, and with a flourish of his longsword, he left a trail of sword shadows in the air.
The three crossbow bolts, as thick as spears, were sliced into pieces as if they were being sliced into watermelons.
However, at that moment, sword energies flashed past Wei Zhan from behind, slashing towards him.
Qin Shisan flashed out of the mourning hall and unleashed three sword strikes in quick succession.
He slashed his back with a single sword stroke.
The other two swords were slashed to Wei Zhan's left and right, seemingly without causing any harm, but intended to cut off his escape routes to the left and right.
In addition, Tang Yuan also leaped into the air, his Five Tiger Soul-Severing Blade pulsating with true energy, and slashed at Wei Zhan with it.
Yang Xuan held a short spear in one hand, his body moving like a rainbow, thrusting towards Wei Zhan. The spear emitted a chilling aura, its power capable of piercing through metal and stone.
Just moments after escaping one crisis, Wei Zhan found himself in another.
Although a few crossbow bolts could not kill a grandmaster, they could cause him trouble and hinder his progress.
That's enough!
"Damn it... Do you really think I'm afraid of you?!" Wei Zhan turned around, his gaze turning cold, and purple energy surged and churned around him.
"Purple Fiend Whirlwind..."
Within Wei Zhan's body, endless purple energy surged like a sudden whirlwind, transforming into a whirlwind that violently churned seven feet around him.
The whirlwind grew increasingly violent, howling like a gale, with the power to tear apart metal and stone.
In an instant, the arc of sword strikes unleashed by Qin Shisan was shattered.
The blade energy that Tang Yuan unleashed from the air was shredded as soon as it touched the whirlwind.
Taking advantage of the situation, Wei Zhan unleashed two consecutive sword strikes at Tang Yuan.
Tang Yuan parried with his knife and used the momentum to leap to the side.
When Yang Xuan thrust his spear, the spear's gleam was shattered.
If he continued forward, he would be torn apart by the purple aura that could crush metal and stone.
However, Yang Xuan's body, which shot forward like a cannonball, did not stop. He retracted the short gun in his right hand.
Gather power in the left hand.
His left palm turned a translucent white, filled with a chilling aura, and he slapped it towards the purple whirlwind.
boom!
With this palm strike, a chilling aura burst forth, causing the surrounding temperature to plummet.
The purple aura swirling around Wei Zhan's body noticeably slowed down.
The purple aura was frosty, and the purple blood energy in front of Wei Zhan showed signs of being frozen.
In addition, Yang Xuan's palm strike unleashed a chilling aura that condensed into a fan-sized palm of chilling energy seven inches in front of his palm, which struck the purple whirlwind in front of Wei Zhan squarely.
boom!
The whirlwind three feet in front of Wei Zhan shattered like ice crystals and collapsed completely, leaving only purple blood energy swirling on his left and right sides.
Yang Xuan's body and hands moved with the momentum, striking Wei Zhan within the purple whirlwind.
Wei Zhan had just repelled Tang Yuan with a single sword strike, but his old strength had been exhausted and new strength had not yet been generated. Faced with Yang Xuan's fierce offensive, his heart skipped a beat.
In haste, Wei Zhan thrust his sword towards Yang Xuan's throat, aiming to force him to defend himself.
Yang Xuan had anticipated this, and he shifted his body slightly by seven inches, his neck passing right into the blade of the sword.
The purple aura emanating from the sword's edge scraped against his neck, clanging and sparking with cold light.
Wei Zhan's body was surrounded by a swirling purple aura, which, like a raging storm, tore Yang Xuan's clothes to shreds and sent them flying in fragments.
However, it did not damage Yang Xuan's skin.
Only his skin, as smooth as jade, was revealed, strong and powerful.
And the palm print on his chest that still had a slight bluish tinge.
Yang Xuan's body, having cultivated the "Heavenly Fiend Body Refining Technique," was already as hard as cold jade, making it difficult to be harmed by swords and blades.
Therefore, he was completely unafraid of Wei Zhan's "Purple Fiend Whirlwind" attack and broke in.
Just as Wei Zhan's sword passed by Yang Xuan's neck, Yang Xuan moved three feet closer.
The chilling palm print that had formed in front of his palm struck Wei Zhan's chest squarely.
boom!
Wei Zhan was unable to dodge in time and was sent flying three zhang away by a palm strike, spitting out blood.
"Raindrops on duckweed!" Qin Shisan's eyes lit up. He used his feet to propel himself forward and leaped up. He brandished his Autumn Water Sword, and sword energy burst forth from the blade, transforming into thin water swords about an inch long, which shot towards Wei Zhan, who was flying backward.
Those water swords fell like a rain of swords, threatening to annihilate Wei Zhan.
At this moment, many people walked out of the mourning hall.
Yang Jiuli and Li Molan walked out the door.
"It's over..." Li Molan murmured after witnessing this scene.
Wei Zhan had just been severely injured and knocked away by Yang Xuan, and faced with this rain of swords, he had no time to react or retaliate.
Many guests watched coldly.
Qin Zhixue and Tang Yifan were both like this.
However, at that moment, Yang Jiuli's pupils shrank.
"Dad, be careful..." Yang Jiuli shouted.
