Chapter 807
Moreover, his cultivation level was no ordinary one; even a typical Bianshida Sect master would not take him lightly.
But suddenly, the Long Yin sword light struck, shattering Qiu Dongluo's blade momentum outright.
The residual force of the sword light did not fade—it split Qiu Dongluo's great blade cleanly in two.
"Ah! Dongluo!"
Seeing the sword light cut Qiu Dongluo's blade in half yet still linger, Liu Jingyi grew anxious.
Qi followed intent, and suddenly a tiger's roar erupted.
After the sword light severed Qiu Dongluo's blade, Liu Jingyi threw a punch.
A fierce tiger's roar lunged toward that sword light!
For a moment, Long Yin and the tiger's roar faced off in midair.
After a few moments, the Long Yin sound was gradually suppressed.
"Hmph…"
The cold Chu Zhaonan grunted, sheathing his sword.
"Senior brother…"
Yang Yuncong saw Chu Zhaonan had suffered a hidden setback and knew he was too proud to retreat or ease his force.
He immediately palmed Chu Zhaonan's waist, helping him absorb the impact.
"Lord Liu…"
Seeing Chu Zhaonan defeated, Liu Jingyi's fist posture gained the upper hand.
Fu Qingzhu wore a strange expression; before Liu Jingyi could press further, he stepped forward to block.
"Master Fu, I respect you as a great hero—why are you siding with these people to harass our Wu Zhuang?"
Liu Jingyi himself was also unsettled.
He had just seen Qiu Dongluo in peril; the Long Yin sword light had clearly been formidable—he wasn't sure he could have blocked it.
But with no other choice, he acted, unleashing the Seven Stars Jiang Fuhu Fist.
Unexpectedly, the Seven Stars Jiang Fuhu Fist truly suppressed the Long Yin sword light; seeing Fu Qingzhu step forward, he immediately withdrew, turning to question Fu Qingzhu.
"Lord Liu, this is all a misunderstanding…"
Fu Qingzhu was also exasperated—he had come with these Tianshan Sect members specifically to rescue Wu Zhuang.
But he never expected Tianshan Sect members, especially Chu Zhaonan and Xin Longzi, to be so reckless.
Without warning, Xin Longzi drew his sword and cut down their flagpole.
Chu Zhaonan, before all eyes, looked ready to kill Qiu Dongluo.
"Misunderstanding? What kind of damn misunderstanding!"
Qiu Dongluo, having narrowly escaped death, glared at Chu Zhaonan and pointed.
"If my brother hadn't intervened just now, I'd be dead already!"
That Long Yin sword light was the first time in Qiu Dongluo's life he had felt death approaching.
"Hmph! Killing you would sully my Youlong Sword!"
Chu Zhaonan, aided by Yang Yuncong, finally steadied his breath; hearing Qiu Dongluo's words, he retorted sharply.
Indeed, had Qiu Dongluo not nearly launched a surprise attack, Chu Zhaonan would not have struck.
Even as he struck, Chu Zhaonan held back—he never truly intended to kill Qiu Dongluo.
But Chu Zhaonan had been solitary since childhood, with only Yang Yuncong as a friend.
Even before his Master Hui Ming, he never offered lengthy explanations.
"Fine! Then come at me right here—swing your broken sword! If I, Grandpa Qiu, flinch even once, I'm no man!"
Qiu Dongluo, enraged by these words, stuck out his neck and gestured defiantly.
"Dongluo…"
Liu Jingyi couldn't help but feel exasperated; he softly scolded Qiu Dongluo, then turned to Chu Zhaonan and said,
"You speak with great arrogance—our duel isn't settled. Shall we fight again?"
As he spoke, Liu Jingyi assumed the starting stance of the Seven Stars Jiang Fuhu Fist.
Chu Zhaonan's brow lifted; he gripped his sword hilt and prepared to strike.
"Senior brother, don't act rashly!"
Yang Yuncong grew anxious—he hadn't expected this mission to be so difficult.
He blocked Chu Zhaonan, then turned to Liu Jingyi and said,
"Lord Liu, Qing court and Fenghuo Liancheng's evil forces are about to arrive.
If we fight among ourselves now, we'll only make our allies grieve and our enemies rejoice!
Please, think carefully."
"What Qing court? I think you're the ones from Tianshan Sect!"
Qiu Dongluo spoke again.
Yang Yuncong frowned tightly, about to retort—
"Lord! It's bad! It's bad!"
At that moment, the messenger Xiao Yi, who had rushed earlier to report, charged in again from the east.
"What is it?"
Liu Jingyi's sharp eyes caught the blood on Xiao Yi's face; his heart lurched, and he abandoned his quarrel with the heavenly heroes.
He leapt forward and reached Xiao Yi's side.
"People—so many people—they're coming from the east!"
The brothers have suffered heavy casualties; we are no match for them.
Please, Master and Second Master, hurry and take charge of the situation!
Xiao Yi said, his expression filled with dread.
"Ah! Quick, come with me to the east!"
Liu Jingyi immediately summoned the estate guards and prepared to head east.
"Wait! You cannot go!"
Just as the estate guards were also growing anxious and preparing to follow Liu Jingyi toward the east,
Qiu Dongluo stepped in front of the Tianshan heroes and said.
"Master Liu, with a great enemy before us, we have truly come to assist in battle."
Yang Yuncong knew they could not afford to stall, so he said to Liu Jingyi.
Liu Jingyi considered it, and he could tell that these seven men, including Hearing Fu Qingzhu, were all top-tier experts.
The situation to the east remains unclear; we truly need expert aid in battle.
Han Zhibang and Wu Yuanying are ultimately of the Wu Estate; they would not truly betray the Wu Estate for the sake of the Tianshan Sect.
Thinking of this, Liu Jingyi nodded and said,
"Dongluo, let the Tianshan heroes join us. With a great enemy before us, we cannot afford further chaos."
Since Liu Jingyi had spoken, Qiu Dongluo could no longer obstruct them.
He could only glare fiercely at Chu Zhaonan and say,
"Brat, if you dare play tricks, I'll be the first to make you pay."
Chu Zhaonan, hearing this, felt another surge of unexplained rage.
But Yang Yuncong, quick-eyed and swift-handed, pulled Chu Zhaonan and said,
"Senior brother, don't forget our mission here!"
"Xin Longzi, Mu Lang, you go ahead with Zhibang and Yuanying."
"I, Senior Brother, and Master Fu will follow shortly."
While calming Chu Zhaonan, Yang Yuncong also casually gave out orders.
Han Zhibang, Wu Yuanying, and the other three immediately nodded, then unleashed their lightness skills, leaping over the estate guards and sprinting toward the east.
Among these four, even the weakest, Wu Yuanying, possessed top-tier skill.
As they ran, using lightness skills, they vanished in the blink of an eye.
Qiu Dongluo could not help but shout and chase after their disappearing figures.
Liu Jingyi, deeply troubled, refused to fall behind.
Yet he did not understand why Yang Yuncong had sent only Han Zhibang's group ahead.
