Both Wu Longfei and Devil Fairy were sent flying as their armors crumbled apart before they crashed heavily into the ground with fountains of blood sprouting out of them.
Xiang Shaoyun remained standing, but his White Tiger Wings dimmed and gradually vanished. With the Overlord Skyslaying Saber in his hand, he smiled. ”I win.”
He did not press on, but he wasn't afraid of their counterattack either. If he could defeat them once, he was confident he could defeat them twice. The crowd sank into silence, waiting for Wu Longei's and Devil Fairy's responses.
Wu Longfei struggled back to his feet, but his injuries were too heavy, and he could no longer fight. Using his sword as a crutch, he forced himself to remain standing. Looking at Xiang Shaoyun with a complicated expression, he said, ”Y-you're right. It's our loss.”
Before Devil Fairy had joined the fight, he was already nearly defeated. However, he had been unwilling to accept it. This time, he had suffered a complete defeat, and there was no denying it.
Because Devil Fairy had joined the fight halfway, she had been able to protect herself better than Wu Longfei. She was thus able to protect her vitals. As a result, her injuries weren't as bad as Wu Longfei's. Looking at Xiang Shaoyun with bright eyes, she said, ”You are very strong. I will challenge you again at the Skysoar Realm.”
She then turned and dashed in the direction of the exit, ignoring her injuries. It was evident she was still capable of combat, but she was uninterested in fighting on as it was completely pointless.
The people of the Myriad Sword Sect quickly surrounded Wu Longfei, afraid that Xiang Shaoyun would kill him. Liang Zhuangmin and Hua Honglou were about to do the same for Xiang Shaoyun when an arrow suddenly shot toward Xiang Shaoyun. The arrow was too fast and few people even noticed it.
”Brother Yun (Shaoyun), watch out!” both Liang Zhuangmin and Hua Honglou cried out at the same time.
Xiang Shaoyun had just finished a major battle and was definitely exhausted as of this moment. Thus, this was the perfect chance to a.s.sa.s.sinate him. Just as the arrow was about to hit, he stepped to the side and avoided it as if he had a pair of eyes on the back of his head. Even so, he had not cleanly avoided the attack, as a b.l.o.o.d.y wound had been left on his shoulder, the pain having caused his face to twist.
Swis.h.!.+ Swis.h.!.+
A series of arrows followed, as if the attackers were not going to give up before killing Xiang Shaoyun. This time, Liang Zhuangmin and Hua Honglou no longer stood there in shock. They both rushed over and smashed the arrows away.
”Coward! Are you courting death?” shouted Lin Zihan from Thousand Forest Academy as he dashed toward the attackers.
Because the ambushers were attacking from a spot near him, he was able to immediately detect them. There were three of them, and they fled immediately once they were found.
”Where do you think you are going?” Lin Zihan moved at a speed worthy of his status as the number one expert of his generation in the Thousand Forest Academy and caught up to the three in a flash before waving his fan at them.
One of the attackers suddenly turned around and shot an arrow at Lin Zihan. The arrow was fast, arriving before Lin Zihan in the blink of an eye. Lin Zihan's pupils shrank as he was forced to s.h.i.+ft the trajectory of his fan to block the arrow instead. That short delay allowed the three to pull far away from him.
Just as the three were thinking they were safe, a figure suddenly descended from the sky above them. A frosty voice rang out, ”You think you can escape me? Dream on!”
The newcomer was none other than Xiang Shaoyun. The three lifted their heads and saw him raising his saber. With a slash, saber energy filled the air above them, and numerous bolts of lightning rained down at them.
They were greatly shocked, and they quickly erected their defenses in hope of blocking the saber energy. Unfortunately for them, Xiang Shaoyun was one who had reached the human saber unity stage. His saber intent was unstoppable, and it tore through their energy barriers like paper.
”NO!”
The three howled indignantly, but that did not change their fate. Three heads were separated from their bodies.
Bang! Bang!
