Chapter 127: Defeating Mo Chen
“So brave. You actually dare to ignore my face and kill people as if I would just let it go.” Mo Chen stared at Lu Xuan and slowly spoke, “Thinking back to last time, you probably held back some of your strength.”
Lu Xuan was too lazy to explain. He didn’t say anything to Mo Chen. Mo Chen had just hastily made a move and had managed to block his attack. Although he had been pushed back by Lu Xuan, his strength definitely wasn’t weak.
Seeing that Lu Xuan wasn’t responding, Mo Chen also didn’t waste any more words. Taking a step forward, at the same time he told the three people behind him: “You three, keep watch over him. Don’t let him run.”
Since Lu Xuan had been the first to kill a person, then Mo Chen would no longer have any scruples. Even if there were other disciples to pass by, he could say it was as revenge for Long Hai.
The qi power throughout Mo Chen’s body continuously increased. Very soon, a body refining seventh level’s strength was completely revealed. Lu Xuan’s eyes became more serious. He tightened his grip on the xuan iron sword.
Once Mo Chen’s qi power had reached its peak, he let out a loud yell and his entire body suddenly rushed forward. His speed was extremely fast. Obviously he had also used a pretty good movement skill.
In the blink of an eye, Mo Chen had rushed to right in front of Lu Xuan. Two fists shot out together. One fist went towards the chest, one fist towards the face. This time, he was prepared. The attack power couldn’t be compared to last time when he had attacked hastily.
Having been watching Mo Chen’s movements, Lu Xuan immediately felt a burst of strong qi charging over. Not daring to neglect it, the xuan iron sword went up diagonally, going from down to up, from right to left.
Although it was simple, it was very practical. If Mo Chen had been slower, although this fist would be able to hit Lu Xuan’s body, his arms were bound to become worthless.
How could Mo Chen be willing to struggle to death with Lu Xuan. With a snort, his feet suddenly stepped on the ground and his body lifted up, immediately getting out of the way of Lu Xuan’s sword. His fists’ momentum hadn’t diminished as they once again continued towards Lu Xuan.
Rushing Thunder Flash circulated, Lu Xuan’s body disappeared before Mo Chen’s fists in the blink of an eye. When he reappeared, he was already behind Mo Chen. The heavy sword swept horizontally, carrying power that was in no way inferior than Mo Chen’s.
Reversing offense and defense, Mo Chen didn’t panic. He forcefully readied yuan force in the air. Slowing his body remained in the air for a moment. In that short moment, he had dodged past Lu Xuan’s attack.
Lu Xuan returned his sword. Mo Chen landed on the ground. The two of them confronted each other. Although neither side had received any contact on their bodies or even had a direct collision of yuan force, but the fierce danger that had been there, only those two knew.
As for the fist faction’s surrounding three people, they had strange expressions flash through their eyes. They never had imagined that Lu Xuan would actually have this level of strength. He could actually exchange blows face to face with Mo Chen. They had seen the fight between the two just now, especially the last sword stroke Lu Xuan had used. If it had been them instead, most likely they would be like Long Hai and have become corpses.
Thinking back to when they had arrived, the flame striped tiger was already on its last breath. These three couldn’t help but shiver in their hearts. Could it be that the flame striped tiger had actually been beaten into that state by Lu Xuan?
The more they thought about it, the more they felt it was extremely likely. There was no else in the vicinity, and before the flame striped tiger had run away, other than a few superficial wounds, it hadn’t received any heavy injuries.
Before, because of Long Hai’s interruption, they hadn’t had time to think. Now that they were thinking, this Lu Xuan’s strength was most likely far greater than what they had known. To be able to deal serious injuries to the flame striped tiger by himself, could this sort of strength be normal? Right now they only wanted Mo Chen to successfully kill off Lu Xuan, otherwise… the three of them feared the grim possibilities.
“It looks like senior brother Mo Chen actually doesn’t have a way to deal with that Lu Xuan. Should we also go up to help?” One of the disciples asked in a low voice.
“Don’t. Senior brother Mo Chen is obsessed with face. Taking on a mere body refining fifth level Lu Xuan, he will definitely not accept our help, otherwise even if we kill this Lu Xuan, senior brother Mo Chen will also be angry with us.”
“That’s right, that’s right. I saw that senior brother Mo Chen hadn’t used all of his strength just now. Just wait. Even if that Lu Xuan is stronger, how could he be senior brother Mo Chen’s opponent? Senior brother Mo Chen is the overall standings number thirty-one.”
“That’s true. Senior brother Mo Chen is a whole two level highers than Lu Xuan. Even just consuming energy will be enough to kill him.”
As the three were whispering among themselves, Mo Chen also spoke: “You’re stronger than I thought. It seems the rumors weren’t exaggerated. You indeed are a combat genius. If I let you continue to grow, the sword faction really might be able to rise again. However, since it’s that way, I cannot allow you to live even more. Bumping into me, even if you’re more of a genius, you will still die by my hand.”
“Anyone can brag. Bring out some real ability.” Lu Xuan stared at Mo Chen as he spoke.
Although the two of them were saying this, their nerves were all tense. Then they readied themselves for the next round.
“Then let me show you my Mountain Breaking Fist’s might!” As soon as Mo Chen spoke, his entire body began to move along with his movement skill. In the blink of an eye he had rushed in front of Lu Xuan. There was the sound of an explosion as many punches were thrown out in a moment with fist force that seemed powerful enough to tear open the air. Several waves of qi completely enveloped Lu Xuan aiming for his vulnerabilities.
Lu Xuan who had been preparing for Mo Chen’s attack moved his hand and swung the xuan iron sword, similarly sending out numerous sword strokes. The same amount of sword qi also exploded out.
He was using the Blinking Sword Skill’s profound meanings while wielding the xuan iron sword!
The heavy eighty-one kilogram xuan iron sword would be very difficult to wield and swing for normal martial artists, much less wielding a heavy sword to perform a quick sword’s attack moves. Although the speed wasn’t as fast as a long sword, there were advantages. There was a decrease in speed in exchange for a much more powerful force!
