Who among them in the future would still have the courage to oppose Jiang Ning?
"We must advance!" Xiao Hongyuan, who had remained silent all this ti, now spoke with resolute determination, "If we four are scared away by him, we will truly beco a laughingstock in Dongling County!"
"Alright then, let’s have a duel with him and see what kind of confidence this young man has, daring not to hide despite knowing we’re coming!" Shangguan Guyun said.
Then.
He lifted his leg and walked forward.
The other three imdiately followed.
...
In the forest.
The evening glow shed through the gaps, casting slight brightness over the dark earth of the forest.
"They’re here!" Jiang Ning heard the commotion from the front and imdiately smiled slightly.
A mont later.
A figure erged from behind a large tree.
The visitor was Shangguan Guyun.
"Lord Jiang, what nerve!" Shangguan Guyun said as he looked at Jiang Ning, who was waiting calmly in place in front.
"You are... Shangguan Guyun?!" Seeing the silhouette appear ahead, Jiang Ning’s mind raced and imdiately guessed the visitor’s identity.
"Correct, I am indeed Shangguan Guyun!" Shangguan Guyun’s eyes locked firmly onto Jiang Ning’s.
Seeing the fla-burning pupils in Jiang Ning’s eyes, he imdiately understood why Jiang Ning was able to detect their arrival beforehand.
"And the other three? Still need to stay hidden?" Jiang Ning asked.
"Co out! There’s no need to hide!" Shangguan Guyun said.
Seeing the unusual sight in Jiang Ning’s pupils, he completely understood that their previous actions were utterly aningless.
With his words falling.
Three figures instantly appeared with the wind whistling from the left, right, and behind.
"I am Xiao Hongyuan!"
"You can call Spirit Snake Young Master!"
"This old one, Shui Lan Fairy!"
The three of them appeared, forming a cornered formation with Shangguan Guyun surrounding Jiang Ning while introducing themselves.
Hearing the words of these three, only information about Shui Lan Fairy erged in Jiang Ning’s mind.
Shui Lan Fairy, a Grandmaster of the Mitian Sect.
He was not very familiar with the other two.
"Seems like external reinforcents!" A thought flashed in his mind, then his gaze swept over the left and right. When it passed over the right side, his eyes imdiately narrowed.
Because he had seen this person on the right before, the night of the attack on Zhao Yulong.
"Shui Lan Fairy is the main culprit of the attack on Zhao Yulong that night!" Seeing Shui Lan Fairy, he imdiately understood.
At that ti, he had punched Shui Lan Fairy back. After she fled, he used the Heavenly Eye to see through her disguise, revealing her true appearance as an approximately fifty-year-old woman.
Now the faces of both overlapped in his mind.
At this mont.
Shui Lan Fairy looked at Jiang Ning, seeing the fla vision in Jiang Ning’s eyes.
Her pupils couldn’t help but contract.
"It’s him!!" She was imdiately shocked in her heart.
Recalling the night she attacked Zhao Yulong, how a mysterious powerhouse had followed her out of the city.
Initially, she didn’t take it seriously.
After all, she was truly an old Grandmaster, one who had achieved three blood transfusions.
Looking across the entire Dongling County, there weren’t many who she took seriously.
Even fewer who could surpass her.
But that night, that mysterious powerhouse shattered her confidence with just one punch.
After the event, she was always puzzled by who that mysterious powerhouse was.
When had such a top Grandmaster appeared in Dongling County?
Today, seeing Jiang Ning’s true appearance and his fiery eyes, she imdiately understood the mysterious powerhouse’s identity from that night.
It was indeed Jiang Ning, the Patrol Envoy of Dongling County, whose fa had recently skyrocketed.
Recalling the formidable presence Jiang Ning displayed that night, she couldn’t help but feel fear in her heart.
Even at this mont, in addition to her, there were three old Grandmasters, and their strength was no weaker than hers.
But it still failed to provide much sense of security.
The so-called old Grandmasters were rely Grandmasters who had aged, with deteriorated blood, no longer capable of their peak prowess.
And she had personally experienced Jiang Ning’s punch back then, knowing Jiang Ning’s true strength was not afraid of being surrounded by them.
Thinking of this, she was about to speak.
"Lord Jiang, I am Xiao Hongyuan, prepare yourself!" Xiao Hongyuan beside her spoke, his eyes filled with fighting spirit.
Seeing Jiang Ning, he realized Jiang Ning was a formidable enemy, not one who bluffed.
This instead made his fighting spirit surge.
After leaving Dongling County for over thirty years, venturing into secret realms, finding ancient great drugs, and successfully completing three blood transfusions.
But he had also reached a level where he could advance no further.
Now, he only wanted to seek new insights during combat, hoping to have his Sword Intent breakthrough and reach the level of communication with Heavenly Personas, thus completing a fourth blood transfusion.
He was still young now, so he still wanted to fight desperately, striving for a chance to achieve the Second Grade Great Grandmaster.
And his Martial Arts True Intent was his biggest threshold to entering the Second Grade.
In his cultivation, he knew it was too difficult to make a breakthrough on his own, so in recent years, he craved formidable opponents, knowing that only the purest battles could help him gain more insights.
Thus, he had repeatedly invited notable Grandmasters for sparring and exchanges.
But due to positions and nature, it never reached the pure and intense battles he sought.
Now, with a formidable enemy before him, he couldn’t care less about anything else, just wanting to exert full power and enjoy the purest fight.
Clang——
As he drew the long blade from his back, he gripped it with both hands and slashed at Jiang Ning fiercely.
The blade energy was over three zhang long, bright white as if the sky pillar had collapsed, coming fiercely at Jiang Ning.
In an instant.
Even before the blade energy had fallen, the powerful wind pressure had etched the ground with long knife marks.
Jiang Ning, looking at the blade energy about to fall overhead, slightly narrowed his eyes.
"Beginning to embody Sword Intent, but still far too inadequate, far less powerful than the Sword Intent Xiao Qiushui had mastered back then!!" He made an assessnt in his heart.
The next mont.
A golden light appeared around Jiang Ning.
"Perfection level Vajra Immortal Body!!!" Shangguan Guyun’s pupils shrank.
Instantaneously.
The intersecting blade energy had fallen, engulfing Jiang Ning in an instant.
Xiao Hongyuan’s long blade in his hands continued with undiminished force, slashing fiercely at where Jiang Ning stood.
Clang——
With a resounding clash like the striking of tal against tal, Xiao Hongyuan was imdiately shaken into the air, and the long blade he held tightly was now almost impossible to grasp.
Feeling the feedback from the long blade in his hands, he was imdiately filled with shock.
At this mont, Shangguan Guyun’s pupils also shook greatly.
As the sword light dispersed, Jiang Ning’s body was still enveloped by the golden glow.
Having withstood Xiao Hongyuan’s domineering strike, at this mont Jiang Ning remained completely unhard.
"Attack together!" Shangguan Guyun imdiately shouted.
As his words fell.
Buzz——
The sound of a sword singing rang out, and a three-foot green blade instantly appeared in his hand.
The long sword broke through the air, heading straight for Jiang Ning’s brow.
From behind.
The Spirit Snake Young Master also drew the soft sword that had been coiled at his waist, the silver light flickering as the soft sword in his hand was like a venomous snake, silently stabbing toward Jiang Ning.
Xiao Hongyuan steadied himself, gripping with both hands, and once again slashed out at Jiang Ning with a stronger blow than before.
In just an instant, the three attacked Jiang Ning with all their might.
Only Shui Lan Fairy was still hesitating, her gaze fluctuating as she looked at the faint golden glow on Jiang Ning.
"Shui Lan, what are you still hesitating about!!" Shangguan Guyun imdiately shouted angrily.
"Fine!!" Shui Lan Fairy sighed inwardly, her figure moved, unexpectedly arriving last, with a soft hand extending, delivering a gentle palm strike toward Jiang Ning.
At this mont.
Facing the full force attack from the four Grandmasters.
Jiang Ning didn’t feel the slightest pressure.
With the Fire Eye scanning through, he could see every thread of energy flow on them, could see the uneven distribution of power in the techniques they used.
"I seem to... be too strong!" A thought flashed in Jiang Ning’s mind.
Facing the encirclent of the four, Jiang Ning did not dodge or evade.
The three-tis limit-breaking Vajra Immortal Body had already ford four layers of imperceptible defense on him.
The full-force strike from Xiao Hongyuan just barely broke through his first layer of defense, and imdiately it was restored as before.
"Arrogant!!!" Detecting Jiang Ning’s intention, Shangguan Guyun grew furious, his montum growing stronger by three points.
He attacked without holding back.
He knew, if all four attacked with full strength and still couldn’t suppress Jiang Ning’s arrogance, then the four would have only one choice.
And that was to flee!
The faster and farther they escaped, the safer it would be.
Now, this attack was the last attempt made by the four with all their might.
