If I let him break through to the Upper Three Heavens Cultivation, he’ll beco even harder to deal with!
With this thought, Jiang Tiankuo’s sword pointed diagonally. His overwhelming Sword Qi spread out once again, dense as a net, enveloping Shen Qubing.
His killing intent intensified, but his actions remained calm. He knew that to deal with soone like Shen Qubing, he couldn’t fight speed with speed. Instead, continually binding and restricting him was the most effective thod.
Jiang Tiankuo unleashed his murderous intent. Although he had the advantage in realm, he still aid to lure the enemy deeper, to prevent his opponent from turning and fleeing if things looked bad.
But at this mont, as his Sword Qi spread out and his entire attention focused on Shen Qubing like a spider web trapping a fly, he inevitably overlooked everything else.
Just then, a line of sword light appeared from the periphery.
So quiet, so simple, so ordinary.
It was nowhere near as vast or majestic as Jiang Tiankuo’s sword force.
But this single sword strike hit Jiang Tiankuo right in the lower back!
It wasn’t until the sword edge was about to pierce his flesh that Jiang Tiankuo realized it.
Sword Qi surged around him, protecting his body.
But the opponent was faster.
Jiang Tiankuo struggled forward, blood already spurting wildly from his waist, spraying into the air.
The leisurely, beautiful woman standing behind him was none other than Xiao Xueting.
"Xiaosan! If you don’t make a move soon, I’ll be turned into a Blood Gourd!" Shen Qubing finally shouted.
"Just right, perfectly tid," Xiao Xueting said. As she spoke, she thrust her sword at Jiang Tiankuo again. Her style was completely different from her opponent’s. There was no widespread Sword Qi, only advances and retreats like lightning. As her sword struck out, Jiang Tiankuo received another wound.
Jiang Tiankuo’s Sword Qi solidified like a teor in a fierce counterattack. However, Xiao Xueting did not engage with his desperate and sharp edge. His full-powered strike missed, leaving him so frustrated he nearly coughed up blood.
At this mont, however, he couldn’t afford to contend with Xiao Xueting. He quickly seized the opportunity to escape. But just as he did, Xiao Xueting pressed closer again, her sword never straying from Jiang Tiankuo’s vital points.
This infuriated him to the point of nearly swearing aloud. Such a delicate and graceful lady, yet her swordsmanship is so... despicable and vile!
Enduring another sword strike, Jiang Tiankuo broke away and fled. Now that Xiao Xueting had made her move, she didn’t hold back, relentlessly pursuing him.
Shen Qubing, too, was solely focused on the big fish and followed closely behind. This left the remaining people in Abyss Valley temporarily unable to react.
They hadn’t expected that Mr. Jiang, who a mont ago was dominating the battlefield and suppressing Shen Qubing, would the next mont find it difficult even to flee for his life.
But the others had no choice. They hurried to pack their things and followed in Jiang Tiankuo’s footsteps.
The situation of the Sui Dynasty’s descendants seems worse than expected, Wang Jingfang thought. But the die is cast; there are so things I must see through. Luckily, I managed to get so things I wanted on this trip... He weighed a porcelain bottle in his hand.
Suddenly, his heart stirred; he sensed sothing was amiss.
Almost simultaneously, a translucent golden ball, perfectly round, materialized, enveloping his entire body and absorbing a heavy blow from behind!
As the golden ball vibrated, Wang Jingfang’s head spun. Turning to look, he saw the slightly surprised face of a tall young Taoist in a deep red Taoist Robe.
"This must be the Golden Core Externalization of the Taoist Dan Ding Sect, right?" Lei Jun remarked, his expression more curious than frustrated as he sized up his opponent.
"A mber of the Taoist Talisman Sect, from the Celestial Master Mansion?" Wang Jingfang, disoriented and irritated, retorted, "Great! A True Inheritance disciple of the Celestial Master Mansion, consorting with the Great Tang Divine Strategy Army, acting as the Imperial Court’s hounds?"
Lei Jun replied, "It can’t compare to you, being a hound for a forr dynasty."
