Chapter 90: Second brush with Miejue, snatching the Heaven Reliant to get the Nine Yin

~5 min read 988 words

The two exchanged blows once more, the Heaven Reliant Sword and the Hero Sword collided, but it affected the injury on Abbess Miejue's shoulder, and she was nearly pierced in the Spirit Gate acupoint by the 'Spirit Gate Thirteen Swords' that Gu Hanyuan thrust immediately after.

Fortunately, when she was about to be pierced, Gu Hanyuan withdrew his hand in time, retreated a few steps, and stood tall.

A breeze blew, causing the hair he had tied behind his head with a white silk ribbon to flutter.

It was indescribably free and easy.

This posture of a strong man who easily blocked Abbess Miejue and even gained a slight advantage made the eyes of the Emei disciples behind Abbess Miejue, including Ding Minjun and Bei Jinyi, fill with little stars.

They all thought to themselves: No wonder Junior Sister Zhiruo described him as being peerless in heaven and on earth.

"Abbess, why don't we stop here?"

Gu Hanyuan didn't show any pride or arrogance, still maintaining his humble and gentle appearance.

Seeing his demeanor, Abbess Miejue couldn't help but be impressed and couldn't help but sigh:

"Zhang Sanfeng has taught a good grand-disciple, truly a hero among youths. Good! Today, I will give you face and spare Ji Xiaofu's life."

Abbess Miejue thought to herself that she would consider pursuing and killing Ji Xiaofu after her injuries healed; after all, Gu Hanyuan couldn't guard her for a lifetime.

Gu Hanyuan seemed not to see Abbess Miejue's thoughts and thanked her happily.

"Thank you, Abbess, for your magnanimity. I will definitely come to Emei to visit you another day. I will take my leave."

Saying this, he turned and left.

"I didn't expect that since we parted at the Wu Dang Sect, this genius youth has grown to this extent. Sigh, if my Emei Sect also had such a disciple, why worry about not flourishing?"

Abbess Miejue actually had a very good impression of Gu Hanyuan.

As long as it didn't involve the Ming Sect, she wouldn't lose her mind and become extreme.

Such a young disciple of the righteous path, with peerless talent, awe-inspiring righteousness, and not losing the smoothness of dealing with the world, would naturally be appreciated by her.

She pondered in her heart that when Zhiruo grew up a bit more, if he wasn't married yet, she would marry her to him as an investment.

Afterwards, Abbess Miejue led her disciples out of the valley.

As the crowd was walking, a burst of wild laughter suddenly came.

"Old Nun Miejue, I have been looking for you for many days."

Hearing this voice, the Emei Sect disciples subconsciously drew their swords to defend themselves.

Only to see a man in black robes, wearing a Rakshasa mask and holding a purple long sword, appear before them; it was Gu Hanyuan, who had returned after changing into his Wutian attire.

"Wutian!"

Abbess Miejue looked solemnly at Wutian, with whom she had exchanged blows during the hundredth birthday celebration.

Abbess Miejue had originally wanted to snatch the Dragon Slaying Saber from Wutian and had been inquiring about his whereabouts during this time, but she didn't expect to run into him just like that.

It was just that she was somewhat puzzled as to why Wutian didn't bring the Dragon Slaying Saber, but instead changed to a purple long sword that emitted a faint light.

"Old Nun Miejue, hand over the Heaven Reliant Sword, and I can spare your lives."

Gu Hanyuan stated his purpose directly.

"Delusional!"

Although Abbess Miejue had injuries on her body, thinking back to the brief exchange on the day of the birthday celebration, she felt that it wasn't impossible to fight.

It was just that she didn't know that one should look at a person with new eyes after three days of separation, let alone Gu Hanyuan, who carried a system.

Gu Hanyuan was too lazy to talk much with Abbess Miejue, and to avoid the Demon Sword cutting the Heaven Reliant Sword, he chose a sword energy attack, directly unleashing 'Sword Twenty-One'.

He controlled the twenty-one sword energy, reducing their power by ninety percent, and let them fall towards Abbess Miejue.

"Sword qi! How is that possible!"

Abbess Miejue's face was horrified; as the holder of the Heaven Reliant Sword who could emit sword energy, she understood best the difficulty and power of emitting sword energy.

She hurriedly raised the Heaven Reliant Sword to meet the enemy, but the quality gap of the sword qi was too large, and even the Heaven Reliant Sword was difficult to resist. Before long, she was pierced by the sword qi of 'Sword Twenty-One' and covered in blood, falling into a pool of blood.

In fact, Gu Hanyuan's sword energy avoided all vital points; Abbess Miejue just looked scary, but most were external injuries. Of course, if she lost too much blood, dying would also be normal.

Ding Minjun and the other Emei disciples were so frightened by the sky-filling sword qi just now that they didn't dare to move.

However, Gu Hanyuan didn't care about them and just took the Heaven Reliant Sword from Miejue's hand.

"Tell Old Nun Miejue, if she wants the Heaven Reliant Sword back, come find me again."

Gu Hanyuan said this and drifted away.

Seeing Gu Hanyuan leave, Ding Minjun and the others hurriedly surrounded Abbess Miejue, and seeing that she wasn't dead, fed her medicine for emergency treatment.

Gu Hanyuan snatched the Heaven Reliant Sword not only for the 'Nine Yin Manual' inside, but also to spread Wutian's reputation.

And what could be more shocking than the Heaven Reliant Sword and the Dragon Slaying Saber, which had spread through the Jianghu for twenty years, falling into the hands of the same person?

Afterwards, Gu Hanyuan easily cut the Heaven Reliant Sword with the Demon Sword, dropping the 'Nine Yin Manual' and the 'Nine Yin Manual Quick-Learning Method'. ===== CHAPTER 92 =====
