The Long Sword pierced his left shoulder, carrying sword qi into Ling Chen's body. Centered on the wound, a large swath of his ridians and Bloodline were shattered, leaving the area completely numb and devoid of sensation.
Faced with this fatal palm strike, Ling Chen could only raise his sword to block.
Despite his injuries, Ling Chen managed to repeatedly fend off Chu Tiange's onslaught. The latter, having lost his weapon, was clearly diminished in power. Even with a decisive advantage, he couldn't kill Ling Chen imdiately.
Just then, a woman in white suddenly appeared atop the city wall.
The woman in white wore a veil and Green Plain Clothes. She was mysteriously unfathomable; wisps of white True Qi encircled her delicate body, forming a hazy, beautiful shadow that made it impossible to see her face.
As soon as she materialized, she appeared like a specter beside Ling Chen, confronting Chu Tiange with a palm strike.
BOOM!
The sound of their True Qi colliding rang out. Chu Tiange's body was blasted tens of ters away; he had been directly repelled by this mysterious woman.
Seeing this woman appear, Chu Tiange imdiately ceased his attack and retreated to a distance, coldly saying, "Who are you? How dare you obstruct the Demon Young Master from killing?"
The veiled mysterious woman replied with a slight smile, "Never mind you; even if Xia Yunxin wanted to kill soone, if I ordered her to stop, she would have to."
"Xia Yunxin? It would be better if you hadn't ntioned her. Today, I am determined to act, and I will kill this kid right in front of you."
Chu Tiange's face darkened at the ntion of Xia Yunxin's na. He detested it when others invoked her na in his presence. Judging by the woman's tone, it seed she placed Xia Yunxin above him, implying his inferiority.
"Let's see if you are capable," the woman in Green Plain Clothes responded indifferently.
"Such arrogance!"
Chu Tiange's eyes narrowed. His speed suddenly erupted, and he instantly disappeared from his original spot, attacking the veiled woman.
WHOOSH!
Before Chu Tiange's eyes, the woman suddenly vanished.
Not good!
He imdiately spun around and unleashed both palms simultaneously, striking to his right.
BOOM!
To his right, the woman t his attack with a palm strike of her own, sending Chu Tiange flying dozens of ters away.
She, however, remained standing in place, unmoving.
How is this possible? Chu Tiange felt his blood surge, and his arms seed broken. Even the slightest movent of his fingers sent sharp pain through them.
Among the younger generation, Chu Tiange considered himself top-tier, having never tasted defeat.
Who *is* this woman? Why can she defeat with a casual palm strike? Even though I've lost my weapon—it's still embedded in Ling Chen's body—I still believe I possess seventy to eighty percent of my strength. I shouldn't be so helpless before her.
Seeing the situation turn dire, i Ji imdiately rushed forward. She positioned herself to the mysterious woman's left, joining Chu Tiange to form a pincer attack against her.
"Miss, ddling in the affairs of the Saint Witch Religion is unwise. I advise you to withdraw promptly to avoid incurring the wrath of our Holy Church," i Ji said, her expression cold.
"And if I don't?" The mysterious woman's voice was soft and enchanting, yet it carried an elusive, unfathomable quality.
Chu Tiange and i Ji quickly exchanged glances and attacked simultaneously.
This ti, they held nothing back, unleashing their full strength.
"Demonic Dance!"
Nourished by True Qi, Chu Tiange's injured arms had recovered. His strength had not only returned but had intensified. His Devil Qi rapidly accumulated as his power fully erupted. Facing this mysterious woman, he knew he had to go all-out to have any chance of winning.
"Phantom Sound Divine Music!"
i Ji played her flute, and a demonic sound wave imdiately spread out. The two of them, one from the left and one from the right, closed in on the mysterious woman.
Both had unleashed their killing moves, intending to seize this opportunity to eliminate the mysterious woman in one fell swoop.
However, the mysterious woman remained exceptionally calm. She stood her ground, True Qi gathering in her palm and infusing into the Treasure Sword in her hand.
Her Treasure Sword was less like a sword and more like a scimitar, curved like a new moon.
With the infusion of True Qi, this crescent-moon blade beca incredibly dazzling.
WHOOSH!
The sword flashed like the moon, and a fierce sword qi radiated violently in all directions.
SPURT! SPURT!
A mont later, Chu Tiange and i Ji both spat blood as they were sent flying backward, crashing to the ground.
A sword mark was visible on each of them.
"How is this possible?"
Covered in dust, Chu Tiange climbed up from the ground, looking utterly miserable. His gaze, filled with shock, was fixed on the woman standing in the center of the street.
Among the younger generation in the Martial World, very few could defeat him.
Who is this mysterious woman? Where did she spring from? Or could she be one of those very few?
Thinking this, Chu Tiange finally spoke, "Indeed, there is always soone better. Today, we admit defeat. We are sincerely convinced by our loss to you, Miss. However, could you perhaps leave your na, so we know to whom we have lost?"
The woman did not reply imdiately. After a mont, her ethereal voice resonated, "Willow leaf on Qinghuang Mountain, one sword from the west brings the Moon Flying Frost."
She did not reveal her na, only reciting a cryptic, seemingly unrelated line of poetry.
"Willow leaf on Qinghuang Mountain, one sword from the west brings the Moon Flying Frost?"
Chu Tiange furrowed his brows; the aning of her words eluded him, yet he felt an inexplicable sense of awe.
However, i Ji, beside him, suddenly widened her eyes in shock. Gazing at the mysterious woman, she stamred, "You are... Liu Feiyue?"
"Liu Feiyue?"
Hearing this na, Ling Chen was taken aback. He quickly turned his horrified gaze towards the mysterious woman. Liu Feiyue? The one nicknad "Bright Moon Sword"? She's one of the Four Outstanding Talents, the most elite among the younger generation. Moreover, Liu Feiyue is the most mysterious of the Four Outstanding Talents.
So it's Liu Feiyue! No wonder she's so strong! i Ji realized, her face turning a bit pale. Among the Martial World's young experts, very few could defeat Chu Tiange, and Liu Feiyue happened to be one of them.
"Liu Feiyue, when I break through to the Grandmaster Third Realm, I will co to challenge you again!" Chu Tiange, filled with unwillingness, uttered this harsh remark before leaving with i Ji and a group of Demon Martial Artists in a dejected manner.
With Liu Feiyue present, he thought, even with all the people I brought, it would be impossible to kill Ling Chen, let alone occupy East Desolation City. We might even be completely annihilated by her. Even if I were at my peak, I know I'm no match for Liu Feiyue, not to ntion I'm in a weaker state right now. Liu Feiyue's strength is too terrifying, simply unfathomable. Even if my Cultivation reaches the Grandmaster Third Realm and I go all out, I probably wouldn't be able to withstand ten of her moves.
After Chu Tiange and i Ji retreated, few people remained on the city wall.
