The black robed teen jumping into action was the best command that he could give. Immediately, the group of green robed men lost all their fear as they drew their weapons and charged towards Xu Yi.

With the master in front and his servants behind, they began a two-pronged pincer attack.

Xu Yi made his move. Ignoring the black robed teen behind him, he took a large stride forward, clearing a few meters in one go. Then, with a shift in his body and a swing of his hammer, he forced his way into the group of green robed men.

Incoming sabre, hammer smash!

Incoming spear, hammer smash!

Incoming arrow, another hammer smash!

There were no special moves, just the simple swing of a hammer!

The copper hammer flew through the air like a spectre, no one was able to stop it, and no one was able to avoid it.

Once again, blood rained down from above as human figures were sent flying into the air.

Before the black robed teen could even lay a finger on Xu Yi, the scene was already clear of any trace of the green robed men.

By the time Xu Yi had decimated all the green robed men, the black robed teen had already jumped through the air and reached attacking distance from Xu Yi’s backside. In his left hand, the three foot long green blade was already going for the back of Xu Yi’s head.

Xu Yi maintained his position. The copper hammer that had just sent the last green robed man flying suddenly changed direction, managing to reach first even though the attack from the blade came earlier. The copper hammer blocked the path of the green blade.

A crisp clang sound came out as the hammer and the blade connected.

Then, the most extraordinary thing happened. The thicker and tougher looking copper hammer was actually sliced into two by the green blade, as though it were simply a slab of tofu.

After cutting through the hammer, the speed of the blade did not slow down in the least. Seeing that it was about to reach Xu Yi’s head, the black robed teen was elated. But at that very moment, Xu Yi’s head managed to back off by three inches, avoiding the fatal blow.

Missing the attack, the black robed teen panicked, and quickly changed his move.

Though he moved quickly, in Xu Yi’s eyes, he was as slow as a snail.

With the difference of only a minor stage in between them, it was as though there was a huge chasm standing in the way of the two.

The black robed teen could rely on the might of his weapon to catch Xu Yi off guard, but the moment Xu Yi’s guard was up, his final advantage was gone as well.

His stab was changed into a slash, but before the blade could make it half an inch, Xu Yi’s body, which was as light as smoke, had already vanished and reappeared behind him. Reaching out and grabbing with his large hands, Xu Yi grabbed the black robed teen tightly at the back of his neck before he could even realize it, and lifted him into the air.

With the black robed teen captured, Xu Yi still did not show any emotion. “Now, it’s time to count your sins,” he coldly stated.

Before he could finish his sentence, a shocking thing happened. The white metal ball in the black robed teen’s right palm suddenly changed shape. A long thin and sharp point emerged from it at lightning speed and was thrust towards Xu Yi’s chest with no warning at all.

Having captured the black robed teen captured by the base of his neck at the Dazhui acupoint, Xu Yi was already confident of his victory. Because he was well aware that as he was captured and pressure was exerted on the Dazhui acupoint, anyone in such a position would lose the ability to retaliate, hence his guard was completely down.

He had never imagined that the black robed teen had such a mysterious treasure in his hands. The metal ball transformed and was thrust toward him without warning, and the white sword that appeared out of nowhere had already pierced through his shirt. If anyone else were in his position, even an expert at the Qi Ocean stage, it would be impossible to avoid.

However, Xu Yi had an amazing sense of perception. As the white sword pierced through his shirt, even before his brain could send an order, his nervous system had automatically kicked in and moved his body.

Using all his might, his shoulder shifted just slightly to the left. In that flash of a moment, he only managed to shift half an inch.

And it was this little movement no more than half an inch of a difference that saved Xu Yi’s life.

With a stabbing sound, the white sword pierced through Xu Yi’s tough as hide skin, narrowly brushed past his heart, and easily burst right through his body.
