279 Intent to Kill (2/2)
”You are already all out against me. I can only retaliate!”
Fang Yuan appeared.
With the fire sword in his hands, he walked forward.
”Kill!”
Although the 3 remaining Wu Zongs were severely injured, they mustered their courage and in an instant, 3 spiritual meridians appeared behind their backs. They were prepared to combine forces and fight to their deaths.
”It's useless...”
The actualised Fire Sword had a dragon on the handle. The blade of the sword was like a flame. With a simple swipe, the sword radiance was released and in an instant, the killer moves of all 3 Wu Zongs were countered.
Walking forward, he struck a sword at each and every one of them, killing all 3 Wu Zongs.
Their Golden Silk Armour and Elemental Force Protection were useless defences against he Leaving Fire Sword.
All of his actions had demonstrated the power of a 4th Meridian Wu Zong and a magical soldier, which pushed the power of a dream soldier master to its maximum potential!
”Magical soldier?”
The remaining Wu Zongs looked at the fire sword which appeared on Fang Yuan's hand and made a guess. ”You are a dream soldier master?”
”That's right, but you're too late!”
In an instant, Fang Yuan came before them and ended their lives with a simple lunge.
In a red glow, the spiritual knight felt as though the entire world was lying on him and that he had no means of escape.
”Posture of the Heavenly Lotus! Go!”
Meng Lian finally reacted to what had happened. She quickly executed the technique and the flower petals in front of her flew and shielded the spiritual knight from Fang Yuan.
”Underground Burrow!”
The spiritual knight bit his tongue and spat out a mouthful of blood. Brown-coloured spiritual inscriptions appeared on his body as he started to burrow underground.
”Why struggle?”
Fang Yuan sighed and sliced his Leaving Fire Sword down, breaking apart the petals in front of the spiritual knight.
He mysteriously arrived at a seemingly random spot and struck his sword into the ground!
”Rumble!”
The ground cracked and the crack lines resembled a spiderweb. Smoke gushed out of the cracked lines.
As soon as he pulled his sword out, blood gushed out like a geyser.
”Alright, now all that's left is you!”
Fang Yuan plucked his sword, stood up and looked at Meng Lian.
The lady before her was only a newly-promoted dream master. To him, it was a matter of a few strikes of his sword. However, as a reserved Divine Lady, he was unsure if she had any protective treasures with her.
”You want to kill me? It's not that simple!”
Seeing how Fang Yuan could easily finish off her subordinates, Meng Lian forced herself to regain her composure. ”It's my fault for not knowing how powerful you are, but... by killing all my subordinates, it seems that you have decided to make enemies with the Divine Lotus Cult!”
”You have started all this!”
Fang Yuan sighed as he struck his Fire Sword out.
”Ding!”
There was a metallic sound as the sword touched the flower petals. The white lotus shook before calming down, but Meng Lian who was within was unharmed.
”It's useless... As the reserved Divine Lady, I have the protection of the Divine Lotus Print, your weak sword essence can do nothing...”
She stopped halfway and her expression changed.
In Fang Yuan's left hand, a shorter magical sword appeared. It was blue and had chilly vibes.
”Water-Fire Dual Array, kill together!”
Fang Yuan struck both swords out together. The red sword essence quickly combined with the blue sword essence and there was an exponential increase in power.
”Bang!”
Under the Water-Fire Dual Sword Array, even the Divine Lotus Print would not be able to hold. There were cracks forming and it looked extremely unstable.
”If I can use master's 8 Gates Sword Array all at once, it would be extremely powerful! However, this would also mean that people would be able to identify it and know who my master is. Among the dream soldier masters, there are too many that are using the Water-Fire Dual Sword Array. Therefore, I can still use it without too much concern!'
Thoughts ran through Fang Yuan's mind. He held the fire in his right hand and the water in his left. As the swords combined, a strong and concentrated sword essence exploded like a sun.
”Rumble!”
In the huge explosion, the Divine Lotus Print cracked and crumbled.
”You...”
Meng Lian retreated and there was blood on her lips, which stained her clothing. It was a pitiful scene.
”Die!”
Fang Yuan was determined. Without a sense of pity, he struck another sword out.
”You forced me...”
As she felt her death approaching, Meng Lian quickly pulled a piece of jade from her neck with a fierce look on her face.
”Who dares to harm my lady?”
A loud and powerful voice was heard.
In the piece of jade, there was a glow as the jade started to crazily absorb the elemental energy from the surroundings.
”The magical clone of a powerful person?”
Fang Yuan sighed. He knew that an important lady like Meng Lian would have plenty of protective treasures on her body. Quickly, he came to a decision. ”Retreat!”
