Chapter 628: Heavenly Heart Sect Intervenes, Tianmeng Daoist Steps Forward

"Senior brother, are you scared?"

"If senior brother is scared, you can surrender; junior sister won't kill you."

Xinran Zhanglao's attacks not only didn't slow, they actually sped up.

Illusory afterimages, invisible sword blades; each time they fall, they can tear a piece of earth apart.

Lingjian Zhenren blocked sword after sword; he dodged whenever possible, and when he couldn't, he had to stand his ground.

His palm trembled, his body trembled; the massive force generated a huge impact, even Lingjian Zhenren couldn't take it lightly.

But he cannot show cowardice; in front of his junior sister, he absolutely cannot bow his head.

"Hmph, junior sister, do you think senior brother is truly afraid of you?"

"Senior brother is only being lenient because of the bond between us senior siblings, letting you have it easier; given that, senior brother can only crush you hard, and then you'll stand down."

He says that with his mouth, but his body keeps evading, evading again and again, at a swift pace.

Xinran Zhanglao pursued relentlessly; after her Heart Sword Dao Advancement, the power she unleashed was even more terrifying than before.

The tormented fury, released bit by bit, towards this senior brother, Xinran Zhanglao has only one thought: to utterly subdue him, make him bow, thereby gradually begin to rescue the senior brother's soul within his body, and ideally, to let this Tianwai person's soul be completely extinguished.

Achieving this is very difficult; Xinran Zhanglao must keep trying, cannot give up halfway.

Her plan, of course, cannot be hidden from Lingjian Zhenren; Lingjian Zhenren countered with a sword, repelling Xinran Zhanglao, his eyes glowering with venom.

"Xinran junior sister, do you insist on exterminating?"

"No, senior brother, it's you who insists on exterminating." Xinran Zhanglao pointed her sword at Lingjian Zhenren, coldly saying: "Senior brother, why won't you bow? Junior sister won't kill you."

"If you bow now, junior sister will spare your life."

Such words, Lingjian Zhenren only needs to hear.

If his body weren't Lingjian Zhenren's, this woman would be too cautious to act recklessly.

If she were not Lingjian Zhenren, she would strike down hard immediately.

This is also the source of his confidence; these people, unaware of their own strength, insist on blocking him.

"Hmph."

Lingjian Zhenren's Technique gathered again; this time the gathered sword blades numbered over a dozen, all interweaving.

Xinran Zhanglao likewise gathered the same number of sword blades, colliding them forward.

When the blades clashed, a booming impact sound rang out, and both struck simultaneously.

Their battle is relentless, deathless, unless one of them falls.

Extremely intense.

Extremely ruthless.

Spectators were frightened by the battle; Jing Yuheng exclaimed: "Lingjian Zhenren is indeed formidable; after fighting us for so long, he can still unleash such power, if only he…"

The Fifth Prince Qi Mingyu beside him laughed: "Don't underestimate any Sect Master; they all emerged from seas of corpses and blood. Lingjian Zhenren's true strength lies in his swordsmanship."

"This person hasn't reached the final killing stage yet; he still has trump cards."

Jing Yuheng shouted in surprise: "Has he still not unleashed his full power?"

Fifth Prince Qi Mingyu said: "Indeed, his strength certainly doesn't end here."

Demon-Subduing General Feng Yuqian crossed his arms, gazing at Lingjian Zhenren with solemn eyes.

He suddenly looked up, staring into the distance.

"Someone else has arrived."

"And it's another Strong One."

Jing Yuheng and Qi Mingyu quickly reacted and looked over.

At the horizon, another person appeared.

A figure slowly materialized.

Behind, a group of people followed closely.

"Heavenly Heart Sect's Tianmeng Daoist, and the Heavenly Heart Sect's true lineage disciples—what are they doing?"

This lineup is certainly not weak.

The Tianmeng Daoist arrived with his men, their momentum fierce.

The battle here indeed drew the Heavenly Heart Sect's attention, and they sent people.

They neither came early nor late; arriving precisely at this moment, it's a big problem.

Jing Yuheng frowned: "Why are they coming now? Could it be to stop them?"

At this time, the arrival makes Jing Yuheng have to be cautious.

Compared to the Spirit Sword Sect, the Heavenly Heart Sect is more detestable, and their arrivals are not weak.

The Tianmeng Daoist came with dozens of true lineage disciples behind him, each equally strong.

Those disciples slowly landed, staring at Jing Yuheng and the others.

The Tianmeng Daoist floated into midair, preparing to strike.

Lingjian Zhenren and Xinran Zhanglao noticed her arrival; both halted their attacks, solemnly watching the Tianmeng Daoist.

"Gentlemen, how about giving me a courtesy and cease fighting here, what do you think?"

The Tianmeng Daoist crossed his arms and gave a faint smile.

His aura allowed no resistance.

The woman smiling with squinted eyes exuded a terribly intimidating aura.

Lingjian Zhenren frowned: "Tianmeng Daoist, does your Heavenly Heart Sect also intend to meddle in Spirit Sword Sect affairs?"

"This place is the Spirit Sword Sect; this is my matter, not for you to interfere."

He says that, but Lingjian Zhenren is actually pleased; this Tianmeng Daoist's arrival shows that the Heavenly Heart Sect's old ghost has taken notice of the situation here.

Although they are not on good terms, however, their attitude toward the Great Qi Dynasty and those weak ones is the same.

To some extent, they are together.

Xinran Zhanglao frowned: "Tianmeng Daoist, you're meddling too much."

They drew their sword and pointed at Tianmeng Daoist.

Xinran Zhanglao gave no face at all, speaking directly: "Move aside, or else don't blame this elder's sword for being blind."

Tianmeng Daoist did not retreat, nor make way, but instead looked at the two.

"You two, you are both from the Spirit Sword Sect; why make things so ugly?"

"When the snipe and clam grapple, the fisherman profits; it would be better for us to first deal with outsiders, then slowly handle your affairs—wouldn't that be better?"

Her killing intent was clearly directed at Jing Yuheng and them.

The deaths of the senior brothers, as well as many disciples, all bore the mark of the Great Qi Dynasty's Black Dragon Guard.

Tianmeng Daoist would naturally not let Jing Yuheng and them off; if possible, kill them first, then when Lingjian Zhenren and Xinran Zhanglao fight fiercely, she wouldn't be able to intervene.

Lingjian Zhenren heard this, raised eyebrows and smiled: "Hahaha, Tianmeng Dao friend is right; junior sister, why bother giving outsiders an advantage?"

"Let's kill them together, then slowly settle our own affairs—would that be alright?"

Xinran Zhanglao watched as the two gradually walked together; they had obviously reached an agreement.

And she, however, did not want to… do that.

"Senior brother, do you want to ally with the Heavenly Heart Sect?"

"No, junior sister, you're wrong." Lingjian Zhenren retorted: "Senior brother doing this is all for the Spirit Sword Sect, and also for you and me" of.

"The Spirit Sword Sect and the Heavenly Heart Sect can never walk together, but the Spirit Sword Sect is not something just anyone can provoke."

"Those who dare provoke the Spirit Sword Sect's people shall be killed without mercy."

Killing intent, condensed.

Locked onto Jing Yuheng and company.
