Chapter 1053: Chapter 1053: Retreat in Defeat Chapter 1053: Chapter 1053: Retreat in Defeat Shushan Sword Technique.
Elegant, nimble.
Within coldness, there’s a hint of strangeness.
As one of the few great sects, Shushan has a thousand-year history.
Even dicine King Valley doesn’t have their profound heritage.
For a thousand years, talents have continually erged from Shushan.
Through ceaseless refinent, they’ve created nurous astonishing Swordsmanship sets.
Including the “Waterflow Interruption” just demonstrated by Hendrick Kensington, Shushan possessed a total of 103 sets of Swordsmanship!
Each set is top-tier!
Once, an elder of Shushan used “Waterflow Interruption” to put a Grandmaster to sleep and beheaded him with a single strike!
Now, with his disciple in trouble, Leighton Yarrow held nothing back!
With one sword strike, even the air carried a chill!
Whoosh!
Julius Reed dodged to the side, the cold blade grazing past his shoulder.
Thud!
The lifted Hendrick Kensington crashed heavily to the ground.
“Master…”
He crawled up from the ring like soone who had narrowly escaped death, hiding behind Leighton Yarrow.
In his pupils, a fear that was hard to articulate remained.
He couldn’t even think about maintaining the deanor of a Grandmaster when his life was hanging by a thread.
Hendrick Kensington gasped heavily, his forehead already beaded with sweat.
Nobody had expected the remnants of the Seven Clouds Academy to be so powerful!
Hendrick Kensington, still in shock, looked tremblingly at his arm.
There, dark lines had begun to appear.
“These are side effects of the dicine, which was originally supposed to act after three incense sticks burn ti.
But I didn’t expect that your recent severe injury would cause disruption in your inner energy flow.”
Leighton Yarrow’s brows were furrowed.
Things were getting out of control.
“Wait here.
After I kill this masked man in front of , I will co back to treat you.”
Finishing his words, he gripped his Longsword and lunged forward!
The bent Longsword, like a slithering snake, traced ripples through the air.
From afar, the air appeared to ripple like water.
In just one second.
Forty-nine points of cold light had appeared before Leighton Yarrow.
Then he thrust forward violently!
Whoosh!
The cold lights turned into blades of energy, dashing straight for Julius Reed!
“Great…
Great Grandmaster!”
Down below, the Martial Artists had already started to exclaim in shock.
“To witness a Great Grandmaster in action with our own eyes, we can die without regret!”
Even Matthias Moore, the Sect Leader of Zade Sect, couldn’t help but draw a cold breath.
In the presence of these energy blades, his Three Whips technique seed sowhat inadequate.
“Probably, it will be an instant kill!”
The forty-nine energy blades, like bullets, shot out through the air!
Facing the ferocious strike, Julius Reed didn’t advance but retreated.
Boom!
He flicked his sleeve vigorously!
Powerful waves spread out in front of him!
Most of the forty-nine energy blades were dispersed.
The few that splattered onto the tables in the Kensington Family courtyard completely shattered the solid wood furniture.
One could imagine, if these energy blades hit a person, death without a complete corpse would be certain!
“Is this…
a Great Grandmaster?”
At Leighton Yarrow’s first move, he stupefied everyone!
Compared to Matthias Moore and Hendrick Kensington, it wasn’t even in the sa league.
But.
What surprised them even more was that the masked man managed to erge completely unhard.
“I underestimated your strength.”
Though slightly surprised, Leighton Yarrow wasn’t shocked.
The first move was rely a probe.
In a showdown among top-level experts, knowing oneself and the enemy was crucial for victory.
The move “Skimming the Water” from just now was only a basic technique in Shushan.
But it served its purpose in assessing the opponent’s strength well.
From the opponent’s actions, it seed his strength should be ranked within the top thirty of the Heaven List.
“You should give it your all.”
Julius Reed spoke indifferently, “My limit, you neither have the privilege nor the capability to know.”
As ti went by, he found it harder to control the overwhelming killing intent inside the Dragon King Ring.
However, as the mories slowly returned, his abilities were also continuously improving.
Especially the Dragon King Ring on his hand, which always provided him with trendous power during battles.
The drawback, however, was that after each battle, Julius Reed’s body mysteriously filled with a desire to kill.
“Very arrogant.”
Facing such a formidable opponent, Leighton Yarrow did not take him lightly.
“You, are worth my full effort just once.
But the greater reason is for my disciple.”
Having said that, he gently touched the curved Longsword with his right hand.
“Out of Shushan’s 103 Swordsmanship techniques, I’m proficient in seven.
You are a respectable opponent.
So, I’ll let you pick one.”
Holding the Longsword upside down, Leighton Yarrow was ready for a demonstration.
Now that he had descended from the mountain, might as well let the world’s Martial Artists know just how terrifying Shushan is!
Killing can be simple.
Ɲονցօ.сο
It can also be an art.
“Use the strongest Swordsmanship of Shushan,”
Julius Reed said with his hands behind his back, as carefree as the cloud, “Or, use the Swordsmanship that you are best at.
I just want you to die without regrets, that’s all.”
As he spoke these words, an uproar broke out from the audience below.
Leighton Yarrow had already shown how dominant he was!
Shushan!
That was Shushan!
Facing a top-tier fighter from a top-tier sect, the masked man dared to speak such crazily arrogant words?
This courage was admirable enough!
If they were in Hendrick Kensington’s shoes, they would probably already be weak at the knees.
“Then let show you my Swordsmanship right before you die!”
Before Leighton Yarrow’s voice had fallen, his entire being, like lightning, had already sprung in front of Julius Reed.
One sword.
Tearing through the air!
But coincidentally,
Julius Reed’s neck tilted just enough to dodge the blade.
Not too much, not too little, just half a centiter.
He had no ti to react, Leighton Yarrow’s Longsword swept across the sky!
Countless sword shadows, like shooting stars, dazzled the eyes.
Julius Reed still did not take a single step back.
His body, always at an unbelievable angle, just so happened to dodge the sharp edge of the blade.
His eyes were focused, yet he looked as if he were pondering sothing.
With each missed strike, Leighton Yarrow felt a twinge of surprise in his heart.
This set of swordsmanship was unpretentious and plain, considered one of the finest and most practical moves from Shu Mountain.
But every ti, his opponent just managed to dodge in the nick of ti.
At first, Leighton Yarrow thought his opponent was just lucky.
But by the end, he himself began to panic.
Finally.
When the last sword thrust forward, the blade was less than three centiters from Julius Reed’s throat.
But those three centiters could not be shortened.
Because Julius Reed’s right hand had just grabbed his wrist.
“Sorry, my arms are a bit longer.”
Julius Reed smiled faintly, his right hand suddenly exerted strength!
Whoosh!
Leighton Yarrow’s Longsword cut downward, forcing Julius Reed to retreat.
“Templeton Lena, battle flag!”
As soon as Julius Reed finished speaking, Templeton Lena imdiately pulled out the second Golden Dragon Devouring Sun Flag!
He tossed it high!
“That set of swordsmanship you just used has forty-seven errors.”
Julius Reed fiercely rolled up the Golden Dragon Devouring Sun Flag and swept the flagpole across the air!
“Now, let correct them for you one by one!”
Facing the fierce strike, Leighton Yarrow leapt into the air.
Smack!
But before he could counterattack, the flagpole, as if it had a mind of its own, directly slapped his chest.
Thud!
Thud!
Thud!
Leighton Yarrow stumbled back three steps, a surge of blood and churning in his chest.
Smack!
The flagpole didn’t give him any chance to catch his breath, smashing down onto his calf!
Thump!
Leighton Yarrow knelt on one knee, his Longsword swiftly slashing down!
But the strange flagpole had already flicked up, striking his chin.
“You!”
What shocked Leighton Yarrow was that the moves used by his opponent were identical to the ones he had just executed!
“No!”
As if realizing sothing terrifying, his eyes widened and he exclaid, “You’ve improved my Shu Mountain Swordsmanship!”
“That’s right, I’m teaching it to you for free!”
Julius Reed leaped, the flagpole descending with the force of Mt.
Uriah’s might, crashing down swiftly!
“This isn’t over!”
Boom!
Leighton Yarrow dodged sideways, his Longsword striking the platform and kicking up a cloud of dust and confusion!
Dust and stones flew, creating chaos.
Whoosh!
By the ti Julius Reed had fanned away the dust with the Golden Dragon Devouring Sun Flag, Leighton Yarrow’s figure had already vanished.
A Great Grandmaster seeking to flee, Julius Reed couldn’t detain him with his current level of ability.
“Don’t…
don’t kill …”
On the platform, Hendrick Kensington knelt on both knees, devoid of any Grandmaster’s dignity.
PS: This is a supplentary update.
I update late because it takes until three or four in the morning to finish writing.
Recently, sitting for long periods has led to the onset of arthritis and cervical spine problems, resulting in even lower efficiency.
Everyone should sleep earlier and wake up to read in the morning; staying up late is harmful to your health.
I also want to move the update ti to earlier in the day.
But I have to work during the day, and it’s five or six o’clock by the ti I get off work.
I can only use the ti after work to write until midnight.
I’m doing my best not to let down those who support …
Sotis I’m so tired I plan to sleep, but seeing your disappointnt scares the sleep right out of , and I get up in the middle of the night to rush out a chapter.
I understand the eagerness for more updates, and I dare not slack off at all.
Those of you who have followed it this far are my supporters.
Everyone who comnts and reads the comnts knows that I’ve been subjected to countless abuses over ti, including being cursed for saying I would update late when I was sick.
So have told not to die and leave regrets behind.
Everyone gets sick and feels unwell sotis, and my explanation is not to seek sympathy, but to let those who support know that I’m not writing less for no reason.
I’ve never refuted the abuses in the book reviews, but I have beco accustod to being cursed every day.
However, underneath it all, there are even more who support .
I truly thank you all for supporting throughout this journey,
including during the most difficult month of April.
This is the fourth update for today, and I’ll keep writing, probably till around three or four in the morning.
My hands truly hurt, and years of typing have left their toll.
If there’s ever a ti when the updates are few, I will definitely make up for it; it would only be because sothing truly prevented from updating.
The book isn’t even halfway finished, and I see a bunch of comnts below saying I’m about to conclude…
Haha.
After posting this, I won’t be adding PS content for a while unless it’s sothing important.
Please, esteed readers, don’t complain about talking nonsense too much, I just wanted to explain a bit to everyone.
I always check the comnts before bed and interact with you all there.
The initial purpose of writing this book was to make more friends and et you all online.
I thank you again.
Truly, thank you!
Lody bows to you all.
I’ll continue writing, and you should all rest early.
See you in the morning.
Sweet dreams, may everything go well for you.
