A powerful and heavy slash forced Zhou Sixin to retreat, and the scar-faced man swiftly withdrew.
Zhou Sixin gripped his sword, took a breath, and sweat dripped from his forehead.
Watching the scar-faced man depart, he didn’t pursue imdiately.
This ti he was rely paid to do the job, not completing a task ordered by the General Departnt, so he saw no need to risk his life against such a strong foe.
Winning this battle and being able to give Liang Chuan Mountain an explanation was enough.
On the other side, Zhu Changyi was furious over the continual deaths of his brothers. Originally, he planned to break through the Patrol Guard’s formation and behead Liang Chuan Mountain, the Director, to ensure victory.
But now, with his blood boiling, he turned his long sword, ready to fight to the death with Song Changming!
At this mont, the scar-faced man, the mysterious leader from the Nine Bends Association, grabbed him.
"The situation is unfavorable, gather all the brothers to break through. If we don’t leave now, we won’t be able to escape!" The leader stated seriously.
"My brothers cannot just die in vain!" Zhu Changyi said angrily.
"Plan for the long term, you’ll have a chance to kill him yourself in the future!" The leader, clearly calr, repeatedly urged.
Zhu Changyi stared hatefully at Song Changming before finally relenting.
"Brothers, follow !" Zhu Changyi raised his long sword, gathering all the remaining key mbers of the association.
He originally intended to break through toward the courtyard gate, perhaps even taking down Liang Chuan Mountain on the way, but the gate was already covered in fire oil and ablaze.
Additionally, there were nurous Patrol Guards blocking Liang Chuan Mountain, so breaking through in that direction was clearly impossible.
"Fire the crossbow arrows, stop them!" Liang Chuan Mountain saw through their intention to break through and imdiately commanded to block them.
Tonight, he intended to wipe out the entire Nine Bends Association, not wanting to let any core figures of the association escape.
This was a task set during the council eting before coming here.
The so-called core figures naturally referred to the nine leaders of the association and the leader.
Lv Gang, Zhao Dezhi, and other Patrol Captains understood, and even if so key mbers of the association escaped, it didn’t matter. The main focus was to surround and intercept the remaining heads of the Nine Bends Association.
Thanks to Song Changming already having killed three leaders, their encirclent targets were reduced.
"Get out of the way!" Under Zhu Changyi’s wrath, he continuously swung his sword, full of Sword Force.
Most of the surrounding Patrol Guards had to retreat after blocking one slash, unable to withstand a second from him.
Fortunately, there were many guards, especially those golden-edged Patrol Guards from the General Departnt, who played a crucial role.
They cooperated flexibly like a well-knit net, blocking the few leaders’ breakout attempts, making escape exceedingly difficult.
At this mont, Zhou Sixin once again engaged in battle with the scar-faced man. Now that the situation favored them, he didn’t rush but only needed to entangle the scar-faced man.
Clang!
In front of Zhu Changyi, even Lv Gang could only withstand three slashes before having to retreat in defeat.
As Zhu Changyi charged at him again, Wang Xianwen by the side was moved, and at the critical mont, the knife he raised suddenly beca lightweight, failing to stop Zhu Changyi at all.
"You!" Lv Gang was shocked, unable to speak more than a word.
With the experience of a Martial Artist, in that instant, he discerned that Wang Xianwen was acting!
Foreseeing that Lv Gang would be killed, Wang Xianwen looked on indifferently, with so eagerness arising in his heart.
He wanted to see who could take his position as Patrol Captain after Lv Gang’s death!
Seizing such a rare chance at lightning speed, his malicious thought erged out of instinct, without ti for further consideration.
Every day as deputy, he harbored resentnt toward Lv Gang for taking his Patrol Captain position.
This accumulated resentnt erupted today, in this very mont.
Again ca a knife sound, and at the brink of life and death, the fallen Lv Gang hastily raised a knife to barely block Zhu Changyi’s heavy cut.
Yet, it was only partially blocked, and Zhu Changyi’s strong Sword Force still embedded the long saber into Lv Gang’s shoulder bone.
As the blade turned again, it was poised to claim Lv Gang’s life.
At this mont, a steel saber shot from dozens of ters away, the blade aiming directly at the back of Zhu Changyi’s head.
Zhu Changyi, with quick reflexes, withdrew his sword and struck the flying steel saber away.
The power attached to the steel saber was substantial, and upon collision, his body swayed.
The next mont, his pupils shrank, and a figure leaped high, grabbing the thrown steel saber and slashing toward him.
This slash was powerful and unyielding.
Zhu Changyi dared not underestimate, muscles bulging with veins in his arms, he swung the wide-bladed saber upward rapidly.
Bang!
As the two swords collided, Zhu Changyi’s legs bent down involuntarily under the force, his feet directly cracking the floor.
As he exerted strength, the muscles on his face trembled, and he struggled to lift his head, only to see his attacker clearly.
It was Song Changming.
The young blood-stained face carried a hint of murderous intent, eyes blazing, looking down at him.
The enemy responsible for the death of his three brothers stood before him, and Zhu Changyi’s once dormant blood surged again.
With a roar, Zhu Changyi rose, pushing Song Changming away, and imdiately began counterattacking with the wide-bladed saber.
At this point, Zhu Changyi held nothing back, attacking with full force.
He knew that dragging it out would only disadvantage both him and the other mbers of the association.
Hence, he aid to kill Song Changming, for his ti was limited.
"Watch out!" Lv Gang, having narrowly escaped death, worried about Song Changming facing Zhu Changyi alone.
He also knew that it was Song Changming who had just saved him.
On the other side, Wang Xianwen’s face changed drastically with Song Changming’s appearance, panic visibly rising in his eyes.
With Lv Gang alive, his trickery would be exposed.
He needed to find a way to finish off Lv Gang.
Amidst the ongoing chaotic battle, seeing the injured Lv Gang, he was in a fluster.
anwhile, Song Changming and Zhu Changyi were locked in fierce combat, both possessing sword skills at the Great Success Realm, with Body Refining Cultivation equally matched.
Zhu Changyi also had mastery of a Fist Skill, while Song Changming had two sets of high-level martial arts!
Unfortunately, the high-level martial arts were still at the entry level, unable to decisively turn the tide or crush Zhu Changyi.
It must be said, Zhu Changyi was absolutely the strongest and most comprehensive opponent Song Changming had encountered legitimately.
After a round of attacks from Song Changming, he didn’t gain the upper hand in thirty moves.
Only after fifty exchanges did Zhu Changyi beco impatient due to the unfavorable situation, falling short in the duel with Song Changming.
His armors on the arms and chest were shattered, with two deep cuts continuously bleeding.
"Damn it!" Zhu Changyi cursed in frustration.
Despite both being Patrol Captains, he had easily defeated Lv Gang in three moves, yet couldn’t match this newly appointed Patrol Captain before him.
