Chapter 9 – Difficult-to-fill Hatred

[Translator’s note: my note on ‘Wanwan’ (see previous chapter) applies here as well]

In that instant Kou Zhong elevated his essence, qi and spirit to their peak condition In this critical e all worries concerning Xu Ziling entirely out of his mind, to deal with the calamity before his eyes first with undivided will Otherwise he would be, just like Song Que said, practically unfit to use the saber

In this kind ofabout other things, not only it would not help hih he has fought hand to hand with her many times, he had never really learnt her true depth His only advantage right now is that she did not know about the breakthrough and the degree of progress he has had these past few days

If he could exploit this point well, perhaps he would be able to break the siege and escape, to rush back and rendezvous with Xu Ziling

Even if they die, they would die together

It was time to attack

The beauty’s jet-black hair fluttered upwards, alive like countless vipers It was the first ti-the-hair skill, which has reached the universally-shocking level All four sides and eight directions were full of the dancing-violently shadows of her sleeves, like a net without a single side uncovered, co shouted coldly Blurting out an apology, he put his strength onto his legs, and the roof tiles under his feet immediately shattered into cun-size pieces It was as if Kou Zhong was falling into a deep cave

Following the shattered tiles and wooden beam, he fell into someone’s house belohile at the say attacking down, hidden inside the Tian Mo Xiu [de!’

The blade y head on A burst of yin, cold qi, which felt like it could go on forever, penetrated the saber and went straight into his body By the ti felt his meridians were about to split

The tip of his toes had just touched the ground, Kou Zhong already had his true qi circulated one full cycle, neutralizing the opponent’s able-to-tear-the-heart-and-split-the-lungs terrifying qi energy, while at the sah thetoward the open space area in front of the le up toward the outer wall

These several changes occurred within several breaths Kou Zhong has broken away frootten away fro high to pursue, the Tian Mo Dai [deauzed sleeves like vipers, swiftly targeting the back of Kou Zhong’s neck It arrived the exacton top of the wall

The tih the opponent was an ene still had to prostrate himself in admiration This was her real skill In the past, for various reasons, she had never fought with all her strength But this reatly

It felt like the entire space was caving in He was unable to exert his strength, and even if he tried, the force was not as strong as he wished It was such an extreh to ht

But Kou Zhong had his way of coping with this problem Immediately he excited the qi within his entire body to flow in a forward and reversed way, like a self-contained, self-sufficient castle, although surrounded by the enemy’s formidable troops, it was still able to move unobstructed

The instant his feet touched the top of the wall, he abruptly took asideways; the Moon in the Well swept backhandedly, it squarely hit the Tian Mo Piaodai [deenuity he was using caught her off guard, since she never expected Kou Zhong to have the ability to adapt to changes, not to this extent anyway The instant the end of the ribbon ept by Kou Zhong’s saber, not only she did not feel the slightest impact of the opponent’s reaction force, the streamer was unexpectedly pushed forward, and her true qi was deflected and washed away

Such a fantastic, strange power, this was the first ti She herself was an expert in absorbing other people’s true qi The e forible qi The fiercer the enemy’s poas, the ical

Therefore, as thissimilar but different hted Following her heart’s desire, her qi revolved around, she added another streah into the sky like a de’s offensive hit the empty space

The Tian Mo Piaodai turned intodown to cover Kou Zhong’s head The change in her moves was very fast, so that it was difficult to predict

Kou Zhong was just feeling happy that his tactics see; he was about seize this opportunity to brandish his saber to counterattack Who would have thought that suddenly he was unable to transh his entire arm, so that his treasured saber nearly fell off his hand, while like a hanging boots ghost[1], she floated closely The dejected, defeated feeling in his heart was like froh in the clouds he fell rapidly into the h over his own uselessness

Fortunately, while facing death, he did not panic Making a soht foot pushed backward, on a point that was not visible to her, slightly below the top of the wall

As expected, she pursued over like a shadow attached to a shadow As if she was perforic tricks, one Tian Mo Piaodai turned into two, floating in two streaht and brushi+ng back into the e, before he crossed over the narrow alley, both his left and right eardru were the Da Luo Jin Xian[2], he would have to return his countless souls

Fortunately, everything has been happening according to Kou Zhong’s expectation With a push on the ground, he changed direction and soared into the air, just like a stone tossed into the distance Although she proed her move to pursue and attack, she still missed him by a hairsbreadth, and could onlyJust like that, he escaped from her de the invading Tian Mo Jing [dee of another tall building He stood with the saber across his chest, the divine light in his eyes burst forth, he stared without blinking at the Yin Gui Pai stunning beauty, who looked like a de over riding on the wind

He has created all kinds of favorable situation for himself to escape the sharpest point of her several ht back with everything he had This ht, he had reached the peak If he still failed to deal with the opponent, it is thus clear that between the two of them, there was a distance that he could not cut

Who would have thought that as the terrifying woman was about to arrive, she suddenly slowed down, and unbelievably spun around in the air? The pair of streaauzed sleeves turned into flawless spherical net of ribbons, winding tightly around her body, flying toward Kou Zhong

Watching this, Kou Zhong’s scalp went numb He had no choice but to leap down and chopped his saber

The ‘Yin Hou’ [Eraceful posture she easily evaded all the arrows, and effortlessly landed on the other end of the roof ridge, separated fro distance

She spoke softly, “When the north and south separated, Jingzhou area has become the territory that the southern political powers‘the fate of the south is hanging on Jingzhou’ It is indeed the key to the rise and fall of the southern area Nanyang is the northern fortress of Jingzhou; the transportation is convenient, the terrain is rugged and strong, the population is flourishi+ng We have already obtained Xiangyang; if we also gain Nanyang, our potential will grow horns, as the two places will be able to support each other well You, two boys who are unable to differentiate good frorand plan; you really have only yourselves to blareement”

Naturally Zhu Yuyan could not possibly coeneration, because she had nothing else to do She just wanted to give her people a chance to carryout theirXu Ziling’sXu Ziling alive, to force hi Treasure’s whereabouts

Xu Ziling was bleeding inwardly, yet he simply had to turn a blind eye, to hear but not react, to the Tian Kui Pai disciples being slaughtered all around hi Yu, and the others to look for an opportunity to escape The pain in his heart was not so that any pen and ink would be able to describe, not even one word out of ten thousand

Blood-curdling screarunts of pain were continuously heard froht directions Tian Kui dojo has suddenly beco corpses were everywhere

Taking a deep breath, Xu Ziling spoke heavily, “If Ol’ Xu is lucky enough to break the siege and escape alive today, soht’s cruel method back”

“How dare you!” Zhu Yuyan replied with a cold laugh, “Are you two still as delusional as you used to be?”

Her left hand slowly stretched out fro and pro opponent whose fa star

Xu Ziling could not prevent his attention fro completely draard the jade hand and small ar welled up in his heart

Under the illumination of the moon and the stars, Zhu Yuyan’s co with a touching out-of-the-world light Both in terms of posture and movement, she seemed to be the culmination of beauty anda certain hard-to-describe secret between the heaven and the earth Mo felt as if he was suddenly transported into another world, which had nothing to do with thewith the reek of blood – happening around hi noise emitted from Zhu Yuyan’s purple-red mouth, which was hidden behind the heavy veil As it entered Xu Ziling’s eardruradually transformed into the wonderful sound of nature

This absolute-apex e within the de ap-not-penetrated ’s saber seemed to shock the streamer, but actually the blade merely scratched the htly, like a toad or a slug skidding over the water, yet it produced an explosion as the qi poas clashi+ng against each other

Both co thing for Kou Zhong was that the Tian Mo Piaodai, like a living spirit-snake, coiled around hihtly with the enormous Tian Mo power like thousand-catty stocks and chain, so that his breathing could not flow freely, and even though he wanted to pull his saber and retreat, he simply was not able to The only as to abandon his saber and flee

In this the-soul-flies-away-and-scatters, he-possessed-exceptional-saber-skill-in-vain-since-there-is-no-favorable-position-to-use-itspear technique [in Chapter 5 it was Sudden Thrust (returning horse), without the last character ‘trailing’]

She was shocked because she was unable to see through the changes in his saber technique Clearly it was a saber strike hacking straight onto her face, yet at the last moment, when the attack arrived, it was only her streamer that was scratched by his blade, so that all her formidable moves could not be carried out completely

Fortunately, the most formidable aspect of the Tian Mo Da Fa was precisely its countless and endless changes Immediately she unleashed the most for’ [delicate hands controlling the dragon] In the past, the two great elderFa-until-death-arrives technique

Just when she thought that she was lucky that her marvelous technique succeeded, the Moon in the Well suddenly produced an enor to the left

Shocked inwardly, she shouted tenderly and produced an opposing force in the other direction to counter

The two landed on the roof at the sahed and said, “Beauty fell into the trap!”

The Moon in the Well swayed, Kou Zhong dragged the saber in the saht on her streamer
