Chapter 287: Standing proudly in the sky
Even though Leah Cain was completely contemptuous, he immediately focused all of his attention when Han Shuo truly made his move. He raised the broadsword in his hand with a cold snort. A silver sword light suddenly spread out in front of him.
Leah Cain had stepped into the rank of great swordmaster many years ago. He had indulged in this realm for a long time, challenging and defeating many experts back in the Brut Merchant Alliance, and gaining the title of Crazy Great Swordmaster at the same time. If he hadn’t offended the lightning sacred magus Reynold Dila of the alliance, he might have never had to flee to the Lancelot Empire.
The silver sword light instantly enveloped the area in front of him. Han Shuo could feel an enormous sword aura hidden within the light as he flew over to Leah Cain. He immediately infused the Demonslayer Edge with magical yuan. This indestructible weapon then burst out with black light and stabbed directly towards the silver sword light.
The Demonslayer Edge shot forward explosively with a black light and heavy killing intent. It abruptly bombarded Leah Cain’s sword light. The silver sword light intertwined with the black light as several metallic pops sounded. Spots of light scattered out like stars before fading away in the air.
“Nngnn.” Leah Cain let out a light cry and quickly retreated a step back. He looked at Han Shuo with shock, “Not bad little guy, your weapon is quite strange. It actually isn’t fighting aura!”
The black light from the Demonslayer Edge snuffed the silver sword light into thin air. However when the silver sword light collided with the Demonslayer Edge, a huge force flooded into Han Shuo’s arm through the weapon, numbing his arm a little.
Han Shuo didn’t rush to make a next move. His face cold as he stared fixedly at Leah Cain, he focused his mind to the peak. After this exchange, he knew that Leah Cain was indeed much more powerful than the great swordmaster he killed last time. They were both swordmasters, but Leah Cain had swelled in this rank for many years. His strength was truly extraordinary.
“This Bryan has some power indeed!” Amyes looked at Candide in surprise and exclaimed softly on the platform opposite of the Garden House.
Candide’s eyes shone brightly, his face full of interest as he replied while looking at Han Shuo, “This is my first time seeing him fight as well. Although he has no fighting aura, he could unexpectedly break through the sword light that Leah Cain had gathered from his fighting aura. It looks like his body is hiding a lot of secrets!”
The nobles around exclaimed incredulously nonstop upon seeing Han Shuo shatter Leah Cain’s sword light with his stroke. Amongst them, Lawrence and Phoebe were visibly joyous.
“This boy really isn’t bad. He saved us once last time at Eevee’s house, it can be considered that we owe him a favor. I hope that he won’t be harmed by Leah Cain!” Old mister Hahn laughed and said to Emily next to him as he looked at Han Shuo.
“It seems this Bryan may just win!” Emily replied with a chuckle. She knew in her heart that Han Shuo’s strength wasn’t just that simple. Based on the fact that he could fly through the air, that alone was a huge advantage as it wasn’t something Leah Cain could do.
“Haha, hopefully so!” Old Hahn laughed heartily.
As everyone discussed noisily, Leah Cain snorted coldly, “You do have some strength, but it’s a pity that you shouldn’t have challenged me!”
Leah Cain raised his broadsword after his words and stepped towards Han Shuo. His speed wasn’t fast and each step was heavy. The two scars on his neck looked ferocious as they crossed each other, his pupils filled with a mad fighting desire.
Leah Cain’s momentum was stronger with each step, the broadsword in his hand emitting a dazzling silver halo beneath the sunlight. The silver fighting aura finally converged with the broadsword into a brilliantly beautiful rainbow that shot towards Han Shuo from a dozen meters away.
The speed of this silver rainbow was lightning fast. It whizzed right to Han Shuo’s face as if having leapt over the distance of a dozen meters. This attack contained such an enormous force that several watching nobles around could also felt it clearly.
Han Shuo just stood there, like he been stunned by the extremely fast attack of the silver rainbow. He seemed to have not reacted yet. Everyone stared dumbly as the silver rainbow cut down on his body. It looked like he didn’t know how to dodge.
“Quickly, run!” Many onlookers were worried for Han Shuo, they all screamed out to warn him. Unfortunately the speed of their voice couldn’t match the attacking speed of that silver rainbow sword aura from Leah Cain.
A frightening sound boomed right out at the ground where Han Shuo was just standing dumbly right after the onlookers’ warnings rang out. A gully fifteen meters long instantly appeared in that area. The deep gully was as if one had just sliced into a piece of tofu.
