Chapter 286 – Become Meat On Somebodys Chopping Board! (1/2)
Chapter 286: Become meat on somebody's chopping board!
The book 'Reflection of the heart' stated: when people successfully completed a certain task, their body and mental state would relax momentarily.
When Li Muyang handed over the fire rockfruit to Zhong Yu, Zhong Yu let go his grip to receive it and Li Muyang let go of the fruit——that is, he fulfilled the task of sending the fruit, and his body and heart naturally relaxed his vigilance and defensiveness.
Because at that moment he saw Zhong Yu stretching out his hand to receive the fruit.
The fruit represents his goodwill, the other side had accepted his goodwill, they should also return the goodwill.
He didn't expect Zhong Yu to draw his sword.
None of them had thought of it.
While his right hand was receiving the fire rock fruit from Li Muyang, his left hand was simultaneously administering a sword attack.
Left-handed sword.
Left-handed sword masters were geniuses.
Most people are right handed, because the right hand was more flexible and powerful than the left hand. As long as people have a common sense they would feel a clear difference between the two when clenching both hands into fists.
But some people are different to ordinary people; they have a more flexible and powerful left hand compared to their right hand. These are what people of the divine continent often call 'left-handers'. Left-handed sword masters generally walk a tricky, paradoxical route.
Fast, accurate, ruthless, and taking advantage of others unpreparedness to strike a deadly blow.
Zhong Yu was not left-handed. He also was not an expert in left-handed sword.
He was a right-handed sword master, and was no different to the majority of sword masters.
It was only that he had some hidden intentions, and he had spent enough work in training in his right arms. After tens of years of effort, his left handed swordsmans.h.i.+p was already refined.
Although the elders of the sect had repeatedly reminded him that doing two things at once would not end with a beautiful result, and instead affect the right hand's sensitivity and understanding to a sword.
But he had persevered in this practice. And he found that left-handed sword usage has a lot of advantages in many cases, such as suddenly stabbing a person.
For example, now.
Zhong Yu stretched out his empty right hand to receive the fruit, to paralyze the mind of Li Muyang and make him relax his vigilance.
At the same time, his right-handed dagger was lunging forward at lightning speed.
Like an evil monster at the foot of Mountain of flames, the sword blade streaked across in a silver glorious arc.
Li Muyang was caught completely off guard, a sword piercing right into his stomach.
With Li Muyang dead, Qiandu would be no match for the seven opponents. At that time, whether it was the woman's seductive body or the treasures and rare books that were on her, it would be all theirs.
When Qiandu was heading down the mountain she was cloaked by a sphere of transparent white light. Although he did not know what sort of magical object protection it was, it must be extremely extraordinary. He still had a good eye for treasure.
In this barren world with no sign of human habitation, they could vent their inner evil without a second thought.
Indeed, as he had expected, the sword had pierced un.o.bstructed through Li Muyang, because he heard a familiar flesh piercing noise.
His eyes were still fixed on Li Muyang, and accompanied by a smile of grat.i.tude for the fire rock fruit that Li Muyang brought over.
The smile was infinitely magnified, like a blooming flower.
There was a glint of mockery in his eyes, and said in a very scornful tone to appreciate Li Muyang's surprised expression, asking: “Did not expect it?”
“I didn't expect it.” Li Muyang said in a low voice, his brow tightened, annoyed at himself for making such a low-level mistake.
He should not believe these people, they have long lost their human nature.
“I also didn't expect it.” Zhong Yu shrugged his shoulders. Clearly he felt that his action was very das.h.i.+ng.
“I didn't expect that I'd be able to block it.” Li Muyang said loudly.
“——” Zhong Yu was astonished.
His sight s.h.i.+fted, only to find that his dagger was tightly in Li Muyang's hand.
That sword that appeared unpredictably, that sword that was like lightning, that sword that he entrusted his hopes on was, blocked by Li Muyang——
He seized the blade with his palm, so that the blade could not pierce his stomach.
“He was already on guard?”
However, even if he was prepared, with his ability, how could he be able to keep pace with his sword?
A cunning person was scheming against someone that was unprepared. The fact that Li Muyang was able to seize his blade, was rather humiliating for Zhong Yu.
The blade drew a deep cut across Li Muyang's palm, the skin and flesh were opened, and the bones were visible. Fresh blood was pouring outward.
The blood trickled onto the blade, dripping down upon the ground. When it was mixed with the black soil in the ground, it disappeared without a trace.
“Muyang——” Qiandu hastily ran over, the magic flute in her hand flas.h.i.+ng jade-green in her hand, said in a fierce voice: “You despicable people, you used such a lowly method——Are you not afraid of disgracing the Changbai Sword Sect?”
The air around whistled and roared like the sound of thunder.
She was going to fight these people.
Even the other six people of the Changbai seven sons did not think Zhong Yu would suddenly draw his sword and wound Li Muyang. Zhong Feng's brow tightened into a frown, yelling: “Zhong Yu, what are you doing?”
