Chapter 2547: Sudden Change (2/2)

“Solitary Sword Ancestor, if you insist on entangling with me, I will treat you as my greatest enemy. You will definitely regret this,” the Rain Abbess said. Her icy-cold voice was furious.

“I’m only doing this because of someone’s request. I need to keep you busy for three days. After those three days, I’ll leave by myself.” An old voice rang out from the resplendent light.

The expert of the Way of the Sword was the Solitary Sword Ancestor.

“Solitary Sword Ancestor!” The Rain Abbess called out furiously. As she said that, violent power of space surged out from the surrounding, collapsing space and forming a huge spatial vortex that enveloped the Solitary Sword Ancestor.

At the same time, the power of the Laws of Space permeated the region, constantly affecting the space near the Solitary Sword Ancestor in an attempt to get in his way.

The Solitary Sword Ancestor dealt with this with composure. He slashed out with his sword. The light was extremely terrifying, nullifying all of the Rain Abbess’ attacks.

For a moment, the Rain Abbess and the Solitary Sword Ancestor were locked in a stalemate. Their battle prowess matched each others’, so neither party could do anything to their opponent.

However, at this moment, an azure figure suddenly shot out from the collapsed space. It had appeared there silently, without raising any attention. It arrived behind the Solitary Sword Ancestor in a flash. It dealt a swift attack without any hesitation at all.

The Solitary Sword Ancestor was facing the Rain Abbess with his full strength, so he was in no state to divert his attention. Coupled with the interference from the Rain Abbess’ power of space, his senses were obscured. As a result, he was struck by the azure light after being caught off-guard.

Bang!

Immediately, there was a thud, and the Solitary Sword Ancestor was blasted away. The light around him collapsed, revealing his appearance.

His old face was rather pale, and there was a plate-sized hole in his chest. Blood dyed his clothes red.

“Azure Peng King, I never thought it would be you,” Even though he was heavily injured, the Solitary Sword Ancestor remained composed. However, his gaze was piercing. His voice was slightly sternly.

“This king owes the Rain Abbess a favour. I’ve come to return the favour this time.” The azure light faded and revealed the Azure Peng King. He stared at the Solitary Sword Ancestor calmly. He was at ease.

In the next moment, the Azure Peng King struck out again. He charged towards the Solitary Sword Ancestor as a streak of azure light with his unmatched speed, fighting alongside the Rain Abbess.

The Solitary Sword Ancestor was no weaker than either of them. As a matter of fact, he was much more powerful than the Azure Peng King. However, now that he faced the two of them simultaneously, he immediately lost the upper hand and was forced back.

“Wind! Clouds! Thunder! Rain!” The Rain Abbess called out. She formed a seal with her hands, and an inscription of primitive simplicity condensed there. The bearing of ways circulated within it, seemingly resonating with the ways of the world. In the end, it struck the Solitary Sword Ancestor’s sword.

Immediately, the Solitary Sword Ancestor’s sword produced a clear thrum as it constantly trembled. The light dimmed, having been dispersed, and the Solitary Sword Ancestor was knocked back.

“I can’t last three days with the Azure Peng King here now. I am powerless. Farewell!” The Solitary Sword Ancestor’s face was cold. He stowed his sword away and murmured sternly. In the next moment, he vanished into the depths of space as a streak of light.

At the same time, Cheng Ming paused in his collection of mud and fluid. The Solitary Sword Ancestor’s message directly reached his ears, immediately making him stern.

“Something has happened. We can’t stay here. We need to go.” Cheng Ming stopped without any hesitation and called for Jian Chen, directly taking out the Heaven-linking Bridge to open a path to the outside.
