Chapter 27: Flowing Light Mirror

The red light on the bronze mirror grew increasingly intense, and it looked as if it were about to be activated. At this moment, however, Gao Dakuan was entangled by another man in black and could not break free. Although his Divine Sense had already sensed someone attacking from behind, he was unable to turn around to save himself.

Zhang Nuo and the girl in pink, who were standing to the side watching the battle, saw everything. Zhang Nuo was so anxious that his face turned pale with shock. Without time to think, he moved his Divine Sense, and two Flying Swords flashed rapidly out of the "Nine Dragon Sword Case" on his back, heading straight for the man in black holding the bronze mirror.

As soon as Zhang Nuo made his move, the girl in pink standing beside him immediately saw his true strength. The girl's eyes widened in disbelief; she could not believe what she was seeing. This boy, whose cultivation level she had been unable to discern just a moment ago, was only at Qi Refining Stage Level 6. Such a low cultivation level made him nothing more than a burden! She regretted having thought he was a tough character just a moment ago!

The speed of Zhang Nuo's Flying Swords was not fast. Although he was exerting his full strength, his cultivation was limited, and it was impossible for him to launch attacks as strangely as Gao Dakuan.

"Clang!"

Suddenly, a sound of metal clashing rang out. The man in black who had been holding the bronze mirror let out a loud cry of "Ah!", the bronze mirror slipped from his hand and fell to the ground, losing all its Spiritual Qi and luster. His body retreated rapidly, and at the same time, blood flowed from the palm of the man in black.

Zhang Nuo was shocked. When he looked closely, he realized it was a ring-shaped Magic Treasure that had struck the bronze mirror, and the owner of this Magic Treasure was none other than the girl in pink. At this moment, Zhang Nuo's two Flying Swords had only flown halfway, while the girl's Magic Treasure had arrived first despite being launched later.

Since she had discovered Zhang Nuo's true strength, the girl no longer held any hope in her heart. If she did not act, Gao Dakuan would surely die.

"You stay here, I'm going to help him!"

The girl glanced at Zhang Nuo; her mood at this moment could not be described in words. With a flutter of her figure, the girl rushed out, and her target was the bronze mirror that had already fallen to the ground!

Zhang Nuo looked at the girl's figure, feeling very bitter inside. He had to admit that he had become a useless person who could not help at all! The two Flying Swords flew slowly back to his side and hovered there quietly. Looking at the two damaged Flying Swords, Zhang Nuo's heart was just like them, full of wounds.

At this moment, Gao Dakuan had snatched his life back from the brink of death. He quickly retreated to the girl's side and, with a wave of one hand, his Magic Treasure Flying Sword returned to his hand as well.

"Many thanks for the rescue, Miss!"

The girl did not respond; she reached out and picked up the bronze mirror from the ground, her bright eyes fixed on the two men in black.

The two men in black also exchanged a look at this moment. They had not expected that a moment of carelessness would lead to the loss of their Magic Treasure, the bronze mirror. However, they were not worried; the girl's realm was similar to theirs, and she would be unable to erase the Divine Sense Mark they had branded into the Magic Treasure. This meant that the girl could not use the bronze mirror against them.

"Hehe! Flowing Light Mirror! I had guessed it before, and now that the mirror is in my hands, I am even more certain!"

The girl looked at the bronze mirror in her hand and suddenly chuckled. Then she added:

"You two must be the Zhao Brothers from Yuqingshan!"

The girl revealed their true identities in one sentence. The two men in black did not deny it. Yuqingshan was located within the Nanchao Kingdom. There were two Loose Cultivators on the mountain who were biological brothers; the older brother was named Zhao Yingyong, and the younger one was named Zhao Yingjie. These two rarely left the mountain and had always been in bitter cultivation. As for who their master was, no one knew; it was only known that each of these brothers possessed a bronze mirror named: "Flowing Light Mirror"!

"Since you have already guessed our identities, we cannot let you go even more!"

The man in black whose palm was bleeding said coldly. He was the older brother, Zhao Yingyong.

"Second brother, the boy standing at the very back has already made a move, but he is only at Qi Refining Stage Level 6. We only need to focus our full strength on dealing with the two in front of us!"

Zhang Nuo's hasty attack just now had allowed Zhao Yingyong to see his true strength.

"Understood!"

Zhao Yingjie nodded and said, while simultaneously taking a bronze mirror from the Storage Bag at his waist. This bronze mirror was exactly the same as the one in the girl's hand. With this, the girl was even more certain that these two were the Zhao Brothers from Yuqingshan.

"Swish!"

A pale red beam of light shot out from the bronze mirror in Zhao Yingjie's hand, targeting Gao Dakuan. At the same time, the two of them pointed out several magic formulas in succession, all of which sank into their respective Flying Swords. The two Flying Swords suddenly increased in size several times over, reaching a length of two zhang. The massive long swords slashed down, also attacking Gao Dakuan!

"Fellow Daoist, be careful!"

The girl warned him. Gao Dakuan only grunted in response, and then his figure fled to the side.

"Boom, boom!"

With two loud bangs, the beam of light and the giant swords struck the spot where Gao Dakuan had been standing. A deep pit about a zhang wide suddenly appeared. Gao Dakuan and the girl had dodged to the sides, leaving a path in the middle, and on the opposite side of this path was the disheartened Zhang Nuo.

A ferocious grin appeared on the faces of the Zhao Brothers simultaneously. Their figures flashed rapidly, and they charged straight toward Zhang Nuo!

"Oh no! Their target is the Junior Brother!"

Only then did Gao Dakuan understand the purpose of their attack. They had wanted to use powerful attacks to force Gao Dakuan and the girl back, and then use that time to attack Zhang Nuo, who had the lowest cultivation.

The Zhao Brothers were extremely fast, reaching a distance of two zhang from Zhang Nuo in the blink of an eye. Stunned by this sudden turn of events, Zhang Nuo did not even know to use his Flying Swords to defend himself, and could only watch as the two massive long swords slashed toward him!

Zhang Nuo even forgot to scream. The powerful Spiritual Pressure made it difficult for him to breathe. Within his pupils, the giant long swords were rapidly slashing toward his head, and the aura of death enveloped the surrounding space.
