After many teachings, a genuine master-disciple relationship has ford, creating a bond akin to incense offerings.
"He Changkong, what are you standing around for? As the Sect Leader, are you just going to sit by and watch your disciples be humiliated by outsiders?" The Supre Elder, seeing he couldn’t stop Jiang Ning’s actions in ti, shouted at He Changkong who was still watching the spectacle.
The voice echoed like thunder instantly in all directions.
Heavenly Person Resonance!!
The thought flashed through Jiang Ning’s mind, yet his actions showed no sign of restraint.
If he can draw He Changkong out to take action, it would suit his intentions perfectly.
At this mont.
He Changkong, hearing the Supre Elder’s voice echoing around him, hesitated as he watched Jiang Ning’s current actions.
The prowess Jiang Ning just displayed wasn’t seen by the Supre Elder, but he saw it.
In this brief hesitation, Jiang Ning had already charged into the crowd.
Upon entering the crowd, he was like a tiger among a flock of sheep.
The disciples of the Five Sword Sect who blocked his way were all knocked away by his body.
In an instant.
The sound of muscles tearing and bones cracking filled the surroundings, blood spraying into the sky.
"He Changkong, if you remain passive as the Sect Leader while outsiders continue to act arrogantly within the sect, your position will be over after today!" The First Elder’s voice rang out once again.
Upon hearing these words.
He Changkong knew those words weren’t a threat.
As the Sect Leader, if Jiang Ning is truly allowed to blatantly abduct soone from the courtyard, he would have no authority left after tonight.
After tonight, he would be unable to garner respect.
If no one respects him, his position as Sect Leader is certainly dood.
Thinking of this.
He steeled his heart.
"Lord Jiang, I apologize!"
As his words fell.
Buzz—
A ringing sword sound instantly echoed from behind.
The vibration of the long sword instantly caused the air to tremble.
Before this formidable sword montum, the air was stirred like rippling water.
This also made the transmission of sound much faster than normal.
"Hundred-Step Flying Sword!!"
At this mont, exclamations echoed all around.
At the sa ti.
Feeling the sword montum prickling at his back, Jiang Ning’s pace neither halted nor quickened.
Instead, he continued to push through the crowd in front of him, striding swiftly to the panicked true disciple with a severed arm fleeing before him.
Elsewhere.
"Shoot the arrows!" Feng Xiaochen, seeing He Changkong take action against Jiang Ning, suddenly issued an order.
"How dare you!!!" Just as Feng Xiaochen issued his command, He Changkong instantly turned his head.
Thereupon, he saw the fierce cold light arrows speeding towards him and the disciples around him.
He Changkong’s expression filled with rage, his eyes bloodshot, completely disregarding Jiang Ning’s side.
He grabbed the sword sheath, his form shifting, and appeared in front of the disciples targeted by the arrows, the sword sheath in his hand spun like a windmill.
...
Among the crowd.
Jiang Ning ignored the commotion behind him, reached out amidst the crowd, and seized the fleeing true disciple with a severed arm.
Simultaneously.
The flying sword behind him also closed to within three feet of his body.
The powerful Qi force locked on him, allowing him to sense the keen aura of the long sword behind.
"Master, be careful!!" Xie Xiaojiu instinctively shouted from afar.
Under the gaze of countless eyes.
Jiang Ning’s Qi-Blood surged, his body instantly enveloped in a thin layer of golden light, delicate as a cicada’s wing.
This golden light was strikingly evident under the night sky, exuding an exceptionally sacred aura.
"Vajra Immortal Body!"
"This is the Perfection level of the Vajra Immortal Body!"
People with insight among the crowd saw this scene and could not help but speak.
But what they didn’t see was that the thin golden light, now was not rely one layer but three layers stacked together.
The Perfection-level Vajra Immortal Body, when the cultivation technique is activated to protect, reveals a protective golden light, counting as one layer.
Having completed the first Break Limit, the cultivation technique is enhanced, resulting in two layers of protective golden light stacked together, unseen by the naked eye.
And now he has completed the second Break Limit, the Vajra Immortal Body has undergone two enhancents.
Thus, it is now three layers of protective golden light stacked, its protective strength far exceeding that at the Perfection level.
This is why Jiang Ning disregards and fears not He Changkong’s Hundred-Step Flying Sword deadly move.
Clang—
At the mont the flying sword collided with the protective golden light, the long sword could not help but emit a mournful sound.
The sword body bent involuntarily, absorbing all its kinetic energy, yet still did not break Jiang Ning’s protective golden light on the surface, and was then instantly rebounded.
All the Five Sword Sect disciples who witnessed this scene instantly felt their scalps explode and their whole bodies numb.
They hadn’t expected that the Sect Leader’s killing move against Jiang Ning couldn’t even break through the protective golden light.
This instantly caused their emotions to plumt.
On the other side.
At this mont, He Changkong was already too busy to care whether his killing move could stop Jiang Ning from seizing people.
Because as Feng Xiaochen issued the command, the arrows pierced through the air.
To prevent the sect disciples from being slaughtered by the arrows, he could only whirl the sword sheath into a windmill, intending to sweep away the rapidly flying arrows.
But when the sword sheath t the first arrow, his movent involuntarily paused, and his form retreated a half step.
The force contained within the arrow exceeded his expectations.
Even with his strength, he couldn’t completely ignore the impact brought by the crossbow arrows.
Soon after.
In less than a breath’s ti, his movents started to beco chaotic.
As for the rain-like arrows, he was even more unable to intercept them all.
From behind, the constant sound of arrows tearing through flesh and the muffled groans of disciples echoed.
Hah—
He Changkong suddenly retreated, looked down, and saw an arrow deeply embedded in his waist, then caught by his muscles.
"What are you all waiting for? Quickly attack and kill the invading enemy!" Shouted the Supre Elder, who had arrived at the edge of the square upon witnessing the scenes on the square.
"Obey the Supre Elder’s command!!" A certain elder heard the command and instantly chose to step forward to echo it.
"Obey the Supre Elder’s command!"
"Obey the Supre Elder’s command!!"
"..."
The others, seeing this, also began to speak up and accept the orders, then charged towards Feng Xiaochen.
"Release!" Feng Xiaochen coldly waved his hand as he watched the scene ahead.
As the first squad reloaded, the second squad stepped forward and pressed the crossbow triggers.
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
Whoosh—
Arrows pierced the air, tearing through space.
At this mont.
He Changkong had just breathed a sigh of relief when he saw more than twenty arrows piercing through the air again, and he imdiately felt a tingling scalp.
"Draw!"
At this mont, Feng Xiaochen issued another command, stomping his spear into the ground.
Boom—
The stone bricks shattered, and a muffled sound exploded.
His soldiers also drew their swords, and the cold sword light instantly refracted on the surrounding stone bricks.
On the side.
Zhou Xing, Xie Xiaojiu, Feng Jiuge also issued orders, and the accompanying mbers brandished their weapons.
Xiao Ei also drew her sword at this mont.
The sword erged from the sheath like an autumn goose.
...
On the other side.
Jiang Ning held a true disciple who lost an arm with one hand, his gaze coldly watching the Five Sword Sect Supre Elder charge at him.
"Tonight, the Five Sword Sect will be buried by your hand!"
"Arrogant brat! Tonight, you will witness the wrath of a Grandmaster!!" The Five Sword Sect Supre Elder roared with eyes wide open, his form charging at Jiang Ning, even faster than before.
At this mont, Jiang Ning stood fearlessly, waiting for the Five Sword Sect Supre Elder to approach.
In just a flash.
The Supre Elder crossed over ten zhang and reached the front of Jiang Ning.
He understood that Jiang Ning was the instigator tonight.
The core figure was also Jiang Ning.
The sect disciples’ bodies lying on the square, pierced by arrows, he now completely ignored.
To resolve the predicant tonight, he knew he had to take down Jiang Ning.
Capture Jiang Ning, and the Five Sword Sect’s dilemma would naturally resolve.
"For the old man...kneel!" Arriving one zhang from Jiang Ning, he struck down with his palm as if pressing down with a ditation mat.
"Ignorant fool!" Jiang Ning, hearing the Five Sword Sect Supre Elder’s provocative words, coldly replied.
Soon after.
He clenched his right hand into a fist and punched forward.
Five-colored radiance instantly spilled from his five fingers, spreading the red, black, white, yellow, and blue lights.
Each finger corresponded to a radiance at this mont.
The five colors converged in the palm, rging together yet distinctly separate.
In an instant.
The Five Sword Sect Supre Elder felt as though trapped in a quagmire, every move unbearably sluggish.
Feeling this anomaly, his scalp imdiately tingled.
