Ling Yi was knocked away, yet Xia Yunxin did not pursue him. After supporting Ling Chen, her gaze fell upon the bloody hole in his chest. She softly asked, "Are you okay?"
"For now, I'm not dead yet."
Ling Chen's face, pale like paper, forced out a smile. Although Ling Yi's sword qi did not pierce his heart, the mont it pierced his body, many fragnted sword qi exploded inside him, injuring his internal organs and ridians. If not for having soaked in the Witch Mountain Blood Sea for so many days, greatly strengthening his flesh body, he might have already perished under Ling Yi's sword.
"I never thought that a Great Elder of the Ling Family would stoop to sneak attacking a junior like . It seems your years have truly been lived in vain."
Speaking this last line, Ling Chen intentionally raised his voice so everyone could hear him.
But because of his severe injuries, just after finishing his words, Ling Chen started to cough violently, with a large amount of fresh blood spilling from the corner of his mouth.
"You're injured this badly, say a few words less."
Xia Yunxin patted Ling Chen's back in a hurry, and then extended her left hand's middle finger, cutting a line on the palm of her right hand. The fair skin was sliced open, releasing crimson blood.
As the fresh blood flowed out, it moved under Xia Yunxin's control, writhing into an ancient pattern visible to the naked eye. Once the pattern took shape, it seed to burst with vigorous life force from Xia Yunxin's fair hand, pressing directly onto the bloody hole in Ling Chen's chest.
Boundless life energy was imdiately injected from Xia Yunxin's jade-like hand into Ling Chen's body. Under this infusion, the originally poor color of Ling Chen's face began to restore to a healthy red at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"This is the Saint Witch Healing Mark, using such a technique will damage one's own cultivation. How did Witch Goddess just use it without hesitation?"
Seeing Xia Yunxin's actions, the Right Protector's expression changed, muttering under his breath.
"It seems the relationship between Ling Chen and Witch Goddess is much deeper than we imagined."
The Left Protector showed a thoughtful expression. He originally thought that there was rely so ambiguous relationship between Ling Chen and Xia Yunxin. But now, it seems this is absolutely not the normal kind of ambiguity between a man and a woman. Their emotional entanglent is unimaginably deep. Otherwise, Ling Chen wouldn't risk everything to sneak into the Ling Family and steal the Saint's Soul Niche just to revive Xia Yunxin.
And Xia Yunxin, even at the cost of damaging her own cultivation, is willing to heal Ling Chen's injuries.
At this mont, on the other side of the midair, Ling Yi's expression was gloomy. He set aside his pride to strike down Ling Chen but failed, and was even knocked away by Xia Yunxin. Not only did he achieve nothing, but he also suffered a great loss of face.
"Ling Chen, you rebellious, disgraceful traitor! How dare you still have the face to insult the Great Elder? Simply outrageous!"
Before Ling Yi could speak, Ling Ba already spoke up first, scolding Ling Chen harshly.
"There's no need to argue with them. While this witch is healing the traitor's injuries, everyone, attack together and kill these two!"
A flash of coldness flitted through Ling Yi's eyes as he suddenly shouted at Ling Tingfeng, Ling Lie, Ling Zhen, and others behind him.
"Yes!"
Ling Tingfeng, Ling Lie, and the others tensed their expressions, each flashed away, taking positions around Ling Chen and Xia Yunxin, trapping them in the middle.
"Protect Witch Goddess!"
The Left Protector and other high-ranking mbers of the Witch Fiend Sect were not just for show. Seeing Xia Yunxin surrounded, they too leapt into the air, rushing to protect Xia Yunxin.
"Humph, just stay put."
At this mont, Ling Tianzun, who was in a state of recuperation, took action. Although his Sword Spirit was damaged, it was not a problem for him to restrain the already injured Left Protector and others from the earlier battle.
"Form the Ancient Demon Sealing Sword Formation!"
Ling Yi glanced at Ling Tingfeng and the other four Saint Elders, combining the power of the Six Sword Saints to set up the ancient sword formation to eliminate this witch would not be a problem.
Ling Tingfeng and the Four Sword Saints Elders began chanting incantations. Their Treasure Swords drew themselves from their sheaths, floating in the void before them. A majestic sword shadow erged in front of each of them.
Six sword shadows each of different hues emitted ice, fire, lightning, water, gold, and wood auras, residing in the six points, sealing off this part of the void.
"Don't worry about my injuries now, deal with the sword formation first."
Although severely injured, Ling Chen's sharp senses remained intact. This ancient demon sealing sword formation, rging the power of the Six Sword Saints, was unprecedentedly powerful. Yet Xia Yunxin was still healing his wounds. In such a state, how could she withstand this sword formation?
"Your injuries are grave. If not treated promptly, they will leave severe consequences, even affecting your future cultivation. As for those people, they are rely a rabble, not worth attention."
Xia Yunxin completely ignored Ling Chen's words, continuing to thodically transmit energy to heal his injuries.
Ling Chen, hearing these words, could only nod helplessly. This ti, he indeed narrowly escaped death, for after all it was Ling Yi, the Great Elder of the Ling Family, who struck with all his might. Any ordinary Sky Apex Realm strong, even a Half-Saint, would have been pulverized, not leaving a whole corpse.
However, Xia Yunxin's words reached the ears of Ling Yi and the others, causing their expressions to turn sowhat unsightly. Never mind that this ancient demon sealing sword formation is a renowned sword formation of the Ling Family, designed to deal with Evil Cultivators. Now, assembled by the six Sword Saints, it was deed unworthy of attention and called a rabble by Xia Yunxin?
That's too arrogant, simply disregarding them.
Even Ling Chen was surprised upon hearing Xia Yunxin's words. He wasn't sure to what extent Xia Yunxin had recovered within the Witch Mountain Blood Sea, but he still felt she underestimated the opponent. This ancient demon sealing sword formation was absolutely not so re rabble.
"Go!"
Ling Yi moved first, driving the golden sword shadow in front of him, and with a wave of his hand, that majestic sword shadow shot toward Xia Yunxin.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
The other five colored sword shadows nearly simultaneously shot from different directions toward Xia Yunxin, the six brilliant Sword Light forming an enclosing posture!
Yet Xia Yunxin's delicate face remained calmly composed. Until the six brilliant Sword Lights reached ten ters around her, only then did a strange glint flash in her beautiful eyes, as if a demonic flower blood within her pupils. With slightly parted red lips, she uttered an indistinct syllable. A thick black light suddenly spread from within her, forming a black barrier that enveloped the area around her and Ling Chen.
Chi, chi, chi!
The six brilliant Sword Lights slamd against that black barrier, distorting it, yet none could penetrate the barrier, not even one could seep through.
