424 To Threaten the East, and Strike the West Instead (1/2)

The white-clothed girl smiled faintly and said, ”So, I can conclude that Jun Mo Xie hinted at Xiao Bu Yu that, 'I can tussle with you for a long time.' And, he's doing this more often now. But, Xiao Bu Yu is old and experienced. He wishes to go steady and strike hard when the time is right. So, he wouldn't make a risky counter-attack. And, Xiao Bu Yu will continue with his strategy of making Jun Mo Xie die of exhaustion. However, it doesn't seem like Jun Mo Xie will get exhausted any time soon. But, Xiao Bu Yu will continue to hope for it to happen. Therefore, he will neither attack nor retreat. Thus, I think this fight will go on for a long time.”

”But, Elder Sister… didn't you say that Jun Mo Xie is trying to make Xiao Bu Yu angry?” The Snake King became even more puzzled, ”Isn't what you said contradictory to that? He gave that sort of a hint to Xiao Bu Yu even though the old man is very cautious. So, how will this make Xiao Bu Yu angry? And, how will he expose any weaknesses if his mind is stable?

”Xiao Bu Yu is extremely even tempered. Moreover, he has ample time on his side. However, Jun Mo Xie has still made these actions at this time. He should've waited for a better opportunity is he genuinely wanted to incite Xiao Bu Yu's rage…”

”The white-clad girl chuckled and said, ”Don't you think you've missed something? Hasn't Jun Mo Xie secretly glanced at the fight between the Solitary Eagle and the Seven Swords at least three times by now?”

”Are you saying that he wants to sneak up on the Seven Swords? Does he plan to enrage Xiao Bu Yu by doing that?” the Snake King's eyes shone as she continued, ”That's a brilliant plan if that's the case! Xiao Bu Yu would surely lose his cool if Jun Mo Xie gets rid of even one of the Seven Swords!”

”However, even I don't understand one thing. Jun Mo Xie's movements are secretive, but Xiao Bu Yu is also a renowned expert of his generation. In fact, he's a level-four Spirit Xuan expert. So, he would surely be extremely observant while fighting. How could Jun Mo Xie have concealed his movements from Xiao Bu Yu despite all efforts? And, how would Xiao Bu Yu allow Jun Mo Xie to prevail if he had already noticed it? The Seven Swords will collapse if everything goes smoothly since the Solitary Eagle would slaughter them very quickly. And, the Silver City would be utterly defeated thereafter. So, Xiao Bu Yu must be on guard. Therefore, it seems that Jun Mo Xie's calculations may have gone wrong…” The white-clothed girl seemed to have understood everything clearly at first. However, she had started to harbor doubts as time passed.

Those words even filled the Snake King's heart with doubts.

However, the situation suddenly changed again at this moment.

Jun Mo Xie re-used a move that he had already used twice before. That move was still superb. Moreover, the Young Master Jun had suddenly sped up this time. Around ten savage after images of Jun Mo Xie circled around the Xiao Elder. And, it seemed that ten Young Master Juns had drawn their swords and attacked. However, the biting-cold sword-lights seemingly condensed into one ray of light.

Xiao Bu Yu sneered at this. [Amateur! Have you finally exhausted all the tricks in your bag? This is the third time you've used that same trick! Ha ha… You used the same trick three times against a level-four Spirit Xuan! Your attack was certainly faster and better this time. But, that doesn't change the fact that you're using it a third time now!]

[Your time of judgment has finally arrived! Now this old man will teach you a lesson for overestimating your capabilities and challenging me!]

Xiao Bu Yu laughed and slanted his palms to attack. His palms transformed into mountains in an instant. He then shifted his palms towards his left to face the powerful sword-attack from one of Jun Mo Xie's after-images. This was the point where Jun Mo Xie had made a mistake!

There was no mistaking now.

Xiao Bu Yu's judgment indeed wasn't wrong. Jun Mo Xie would inevitably have a problem if he had used-up the entire range of his moves. Therefore, the re-usage of that sword-attack would result in a tragedy for him at this time.

However, it was a pity that Jun Mo Xie hadn't re-used those moves in reality…

One must never consider anything to be a constant when making calculations!

Jun Mo Xie's sword had already completed half of its movement when Xiao Bu Yu decided to take advantage of this situation. After all, there was a basic principle in martial arts, 'One can't decide whether he genuinely wishes to cross a river when he's in midstream'!

As it turns out, no one could've changed their attack-style in the middle of it. Even a Spirit Xuan expert… or maybe even a Great Master wouldn't have been able to accomplish such a feat. However, Jun Mo Xie used the Art of Unlocking the Heaven's Fortune, and the impossible turned into possible!

A drastic change occurred when Jun Mo Xie's sword was halfway and Xiao Bu Yu's attack was about to connect with it! The Young Master Jun stopped moving in that direction, and changed direction. Then, it attempted a move that was ambitious enough to alarm the Heavens.

A single burst of silvery-bright explosion burst out from the sword as it roared when it was merely a hair's breadth from Xiao Bu Yu. Then, it passed by his side, continued its flight, and transformed into a long silver line. The sword light appeared like a long tube as it flashed horizontally across that nearly fifty meters of space, and rushed straight towards the Seven Swords.

The body and the sword had become one!

Jun Mo Xie had used his biggest and most-formidable move at the most unlikely of moments.

This sword-attack was indeed beyond everyone's expectations.

Moreover, the Seven Swords were also in a very tense situation at this moment. Those seven individuals were in imminent danger, and were holding back against the Great Master Solitary Eagle with great difficulty. So, this move by Jun Mo Xie had only made it worse since they had an enemy to the front and one to the back now. The situation was already bad before. And, it couldn't get any worse now.

There is a camel whose backbone can be broken by putting a single straw on it. But, someone suddenly puts a hundred kilos on it. Wouldn't it get shattered to pieces?

Xiao Bu Yu gave out a cold scream when he realized that he had been duped. He didn't even consider how the Jun Family's little fox had managed to change direction in the middle of an attack even though this strange incident had gone against the very principle of martial theory. After all, his present top-priority was to do his best to save the Seven Swords. He angrily soared like a rocket with full speed. Moreover, he urgently raised his Xuan Qi and transferred the Xuan efficacy from the rest of his body to his palms, and shot them like angry rockets. Then, that attack rushed forward almost two-to-three times his own speed!
