Although he had already calculated the outco in his mind, Nalan Jingwei maintained his composure outwardly. He looked at Fu Qingping and said, "Senior Fu's strength is, of course, beyond question. Truly, if it cos to a direct confrontation, how could the four of us be a match for Senior Fu? However, if Senior Fu wishes to keep us here, it might not be that easy!"
The implication was clear—he told Fu Qingping that defeating them wouldn't be difficult, but killing them was impossible. Naturally, he only ntioned Fu Qingping, completely disregarding Huangfu Ziyu and the Wolf Monk, making it obvious that he didn't consider them worthy of ntion.
Fu Qingping snorted lightly, casually waving the Qingping Sword twice and said, "Do you want to try and see if I can stop you!"
Nalan Jingwei's expression changed; Fu Qingping spoke with a tone of confidence, which made him feel uneasy. Could it be that Fu Qingping had other ultimate moves besides that Sword Slash the World? He glanced at Huang Yunfeng; it was Huang Yunfeng who told him that Sword Slash the World was Fu Qingping's final ultimate move. How credible this statent was, was hard to say. Furthermore, Fu Qingping had been secluded for over thirty years; who could guarantee he hadn't comprehended other more powerful techniques? That single Sword Slash the World already left them defenseless, if there was another ultimate move, then they really wouldn't have any chance of escape.
Thinking of this, a smile slowly appeared on Nalan Jingwei's face. He looked at Fu Qingping and said, "Senior Fu is joking. As soone inept and shallow, how dare I show off my insignificant skills before a master?"
"If you dare not show off, then it's best to stay honest in the future." Fu Qingping said coldly, "I don't want to see you chasing Ye Qing again. If I catch you next ti, the outco will not be the sa as today!"
Even soone as deep-minded as Nalan Jingwei couldn't help feeling annoyed upon hearing this. Fu Qingping spoke as if he were ordering them around like servants. After all, he was a respected Peak Master; how could he allow himself to be so controlled by others?
"Senior Fu's words may be a bit excessive, don't you think?" Nalan Jingwei said coldly, "Senior Fu's strength is indeed formidable, but not yet exceeding the Ac level. He hasn't reached the point where he can dictate the world!"
"Is that so?" Fu Qingping let out a long shout, murderous intent suddenly filled his eyes, coldly staring at Nalan Jingwei, and said in a deep voice, "So you're really prepared to fight !"
Nalan Jingwei originally didn't want to fight Fu Qingping, but the conversation had reached this point, and avoiding a fight was impossible. With Fu Qingping being so aggressive, if he surrendered like this, wouldn't he be trampled by Fu Qingping forever? Even the reputation of the Nalan Family would plumt to the bottom. This battle is entirely tied to family honor. He could lose, but he couldn't back down!
Nalan Jingwei said in a deep voice, "I didn't intend to fight with Senior, but if you insist on being so aggressive, then even if I can't win, I have no choice but to challenge Senior!"
"Good! Good! Good!" Fu Qingping exclaid three tis, the Qingping Sword emitted a crisp sound, suddenly springing out from the sword scabbard. The sword body glimred with Qing Mang, emitting a chilling light, falling into Fu Qingping's hand.
Fu Qingping gripped the Qingping Sword, casually pointing it at Nalan Jingwei and the three behind him, and said in a deep voice, "The four of you co at together!"
Nalan Jingwei was still pondering how to allocate the confrontations, when unexpectedly Fu Qingping made such a statent, telling them four to attack together—what does this an? Is he going to fight four people alone? Is Fu Qingping too arrogant? Though he held the upper hand in the previous two vs. one against Nalan Jingwei and Huang Yunfeng, it wasn't easy to keep those two there. If it were three Peak Masters, he certainly couldn't take them on. And now, intending to challenge four alone, when did he gain such confidence?
Nalan Jingwei glanced at the three behind him, signaled them with his eyes, and then said in a deep voice, "Since Senior Fu said so, let's not stand on ceremony. Senior Fu's strength is extraordinary, esteed as one of the world's foremost fighters. Even as the four of us attack together, we might not last a few moves under Senior Fu's hands. Please, Senior Fu, show rcy!"
Despite asking Fu Qingping to go easy, Nalan Jingwei had already decided to take advantage of Fu Qingping's arrogance to attack jointly, aiming to at least heavily wound Fu Qingping. Thus, without waiting for Fu Qingping to respond, he was the first to rush at Fu Qingping, seizing the initiative to attack before Fu Qingping could change his mind.
Huang Yunfeng and Nalan Jingwei had the sa thought. As soon as Nalan Jingwei made his move, Huang Yunfeng imdiately rushed in. Although the other two elders hesitated a bit, feeling that four against one might be inappropriate, they finally also charged forward. They were well aware of Fu Qingping's strength. To confront him, they had to join forces. Just Nalan Jingwei and Huang Yunfeng alone were definitely not opponents of Fu Qingping. If defeated, it would be embarrassing, so at this mont, they couldn't care about such things.
The four Peak Masters, all extrely powerful, attacked together with great montum. The four tead up and attacked Fu Qingping from different directions, moving with extre speed. In almost a blink of an eye, their fierce offensive reached Fu Qingping.
Nearby, Huangfu Ziyu had already pulled her bow full, ready to strike at any mont, while Wolf Monk clenched his fists, poised to rush in to help.
"Don't move, I'll handle this!" Fu Qingping shouted in a low voice. Faced with the advance of the four, he showed no intention to counterattack, rely watching the charging Nalan Jingwei coldly.
Nalan Jingwei spread his hands out like eagle claws, swift as lightning, aiming for Fu Qingping's head. He had been honing this Eagle Claw Technique for years, and if it landed, he was confident it would kill, seizing Fu Qingping's life.
Yet as he drew closer to Fu Qingping, he suddenly noticed a peculiar expression in Fu's eyes. It wasn't sorrow, nor fear, but pity, a sense of compassion for the world.
Nalan Jingwei realized sothing was amiss, but his hands, like unsheathed blades and released arrows, once unleashed, could not easily be retracted. At this critical mont, Fu Qingping let out a whistle, his Qingping Sword sweeping forward, and a burst of Qing Mang erupted around him, enveloping him instantly. The Qing Mang exploded like a bomb, scattering countless green light points behind him.
Huang Yunfeng exclaid in shock. The sudden turn of events left everyone unable to react. Nalan Jingwei and the others rushed to Fu Qingping's side, and these light points suddenly burst forth, like thousands of beams descending upon them, leaving them no chance to escape.
In such a situation, one would typically react by retreating imdiately. However, these four were top-notch masters; instead of retreating, they advanced. Eight hands attacked fiercely, charging into the myriad light points emitted by the Qingping Sword.
A crackling sound rang out, even Huangfu Ziyu and Wolf Monk nearby showed subtle changes in expression. They could tell this was the sound of the Qi Force in the four's hands colliding with the Qingping Sword. The myriad light points seed to vanish instantly, but Wolf Monk keenly observed that these points were actually countless small swords from the Qingping Sword's rapid decomposition. These tiny swords were forcefully driven back by Nalan Jingwei and the others with formidable strength, then quickly regrouped to form the Qingping Sword again.
Though this transpired in an instant, it left Wolf Monk and Huangfu Ziyu awestruck. Fu Qingping's move, though breathtaking, was also astonishing in its technique. Even these four wielded supre strength, yet the previous blow left each of them sowhat injured. That they tead up was the only reason they managed to repel all the small swords of the Qingping Sword. If it were just like last ti, with only Nalan Jingwei and Huang Yunfeng striking, the outco would not have been the sa. Those two alone could never have repelled so many tiny swords; this move could have surely killed them both.
Having evaded a fatal blow, Nalan Jingwei felt both shocked and relieved. If the four hadn't joined forces, their lives would have been in grave danger this ti. anwhile, his reverence for Fu Qingping deepened. Fu Qingping's sword moves had truly reached the realm of Transcendental Mastery. While this move might not be as overpowering as the previous Sword Slash the World, its sudden execution still left one unable to resist.
Though the strike didn't crush the four, Fu Qingping didn't halt his attack. The Qingping Sword transford into a beam of Qing Mang, unfurling circle upon circle of light around him. The four Peak Masters, once united in their assault, now found themselves isolated in the mont, each fighting their own battle, unable to approach Fu Qingping, only striving to evade the relentless Sword Aura's pursuit.
Huangfu Ziyu, lacking peak-level strength, also didn't possess the sharp vision, seeing only the Qing Mang wielded by Fu Qingping encircling four silhouettes. In the dazzling Qing Mang, the four looked like insubstantial green smoke, darting at a ghostly speed, dodging the relentless offensive.
At this mont, everyone finally understood why the Green Duckweed Ergence astonished the world. Indeed, no one could counter the Qingping Sword, its moves endless, each strike terrifying, leaving one clueless about the source yet constantly present. Like a maggot devouring bones, it relentlessly pursued them, rendering even their Qinggong technique utterly futile against the Qingping Sword's pursuit.
Among them, Nalan Jingwei was the most stunned. He had clashed with Fu Qingping before and sowhat understood his prowess. Though Fu Qingping's previous strikes were quite potent, they had never reached this level of power. This showcase of strength was at least double what had been displayed at the Huang Family Manor. How could this be? Could Fu Qingping's capability have surged so much in re days?
