242 Cleaving Apart The Land (2/2)

The two traded blows for blow with their swords, cracking the earth and shattering the air with the force of their clashes.

The Grand Elder's sword was slowly chipped away but it would immediately repair itself in the next moment.

They appeared to be evenly matched, but neither of them seemed to have gone all out and was still testing the waters, even now.

Suddenly, the Grand Elder laughed, ”While you are here busy fighting me, who's going stop the southern army?”

Elizabeth was unmoved and coldly said, ”You don't have to worry about that.”

Although Eastfell Region's fall and the betrayal of Eastfell City's Governor was unexpected, there was a contingency plan for that. Right now, another army should be heading there from the south to stop their advance!

”Fine, let's say you did prepare a backup plan to stop the southern army, but did you think I am the only Transcendent that participated in this war? The Transcendent from the Illusory Butterfly Sect is probably leading another army and storming on your capital as we speak!” The Grand Elder sneered as his eyes flickered with an ulterior motive for revealing that information.

Elizabeth finally had a change in expression while the Grand Elder reacted to the opening he created.

The Blood Domain transformed into countless Blood Needles and rained down on the Queen, while the Grand Elder charged forward at the same time, leaving the Queen little room to maneuver.

However!

Just as the Grand Elder about to hack out with his sword, he had a crisp change in expression and immediately retreated.

The Blood Needles that rained down on the Queen suddenly changed trajectory at the next moment and shot in different directions, but that was not what caused the Grand Elder to retreat with alarm.

The Queen's aura suddenly changed and even the air itself seemed to have changed as it billowed outwards.

A red line appeared on the Grand Elder's face as he wiped his cheek and trembled when he saw his own blood. Did he get cut? How did he get cut?!

”What did you did you?!”

The Grand Elder questioned with a deep interrogative tone. He wasn't surprised by the fact the Queen could interfere with his manipulative control over blood, but he did not see the Queen attack at all! He was both alarmed and incomprehensive!

”If what you said was true then I no longer have time to play with you!”

Elizabeth said coldly as her sword began to ring with vibrations while the surrounding air surged with sharpness before coiling around the sword with a glimpse of silver sheen.

The sword was raised in the air before she hacked down at Grand Elder in the distance. A frighteningly fast and powerful sword wave was shot out from the sword as it sliced through the air.

The Grand Elder turned ghastly paled and dodged with all his might. His instincts screamed danger. That was not something he could block!

If he tried, he would be sliced apart without a doubt!

The sword wave narrowly missed the Grand Elder and continued onwards to cleave the earth and parted the lands. The Blood Domain was broken and shattered like broken glasses.

Looking at the 200-yard stretch of divided land, the Grand Elder gasped with lingering fear, before looking back at the Queen. He did not dare stray his attention for too long from this fearsome opponent!

”That was sword intent, wasn't it? You're a Sword Master!”

Elizabeth was lazy to explain and dashed forward while her sword vibrated with sharpness again. She was not a Sword Master, but as a swordsman with the Metal Law, she might as well be!

”W-Wait!”

The Grand Elder was frightened and immediately tucked tail and ran. Against an attack that cannot be blocked, he had no hope of winning!

The broken blood shards turned back into viscous liquid and shot towards the Queen in an effort to impede her movements, but the Queen just hacked out with her sword and another frightening sword wave was sent his way.

Swoosh!

An arm was sliced off, but the Grand Elder did not even look back for it and continued to flee for his life. He finally was painfully aware of the fearsome prowess of metal-users.

Naturally, Elizabeth was not going to let the Blood Transcendent escape and immediately chased after while charging up her next attack.

If she let the Grand Elder live, she would not be able to soothe the souls of her dead soldiers!

All blood cultivators must be killed on sight! Death without mercy!
