Chapter 578: Chapter 569: A Knife to the Heart

"Two people are still not enough!" Looking up as another person appeared, the two joined forces to attack him. Shi Feng muttered under his breath and then shook his head in disappointment.

"Slaughter Sword Dao—Destroy everything!" As he dived, Wuu Guang from the East Wind Empire intoned solemnly, consolidating his Sword Finger once more and slashing fiercely towards Shi Feng below!

Above Shi Feng, another Sword Qi manifested. This Sword Qi from Wuu Guang was even more fierce, domineering, and powerful than the previous one, as if it truly possessed the might to destroy everything!

Facing the incoming Sword Qi, Shi Feng swung the Full Moon Scimitar in his hand and released it, spiraling towards the slashing Sword Qi.

At that moment, taking advantage of the distraction, Wei Wuxi, a talented youth from Liuyun City, stretched out his right hand towards Shi Feng below and intoned loudly, "Wei Family’s Ultimate Skill, Flame Heavenly Wheel!"

As soon as Wei Wuxi’s shout ended, four wheels of fire, like those of a chariot, appeared in the four cardinal directions around Shi Feng. The Flame Heavenly Wheels began to spin rapidly, growing larger and more furious, transforming into four fiery whirlwinds that blocked all of Shi Feng’s escape routes and then violently swept towards him at the center!

With a "clang" of the blade, the Full Moon Scimitar that Shi Feng had thrown collided first with the slashing Sword Qi.

Immediately after, just like earlier, the fierce and domineering Sword Qi was extinguished directly under the spinning of the Full Moon Scimitar.

Knowing already the extraordinary nature of this Mysterious Artifact, Wuu Guang’s face showed no surprise as he saw his Sword Qi extinguished. His intention now was to restrain the Full Moon Scimitar and then facilitate Wei Wuxi’s attack to strike Shi Feng.

After dispelling the Sword Qi, the Full Moon Scimitar continued to spin rapidly upwards, spiraling towards Wuu Guang above.

"Slaughter Sword Dao—Slaughter Sword Shield!" Seeing the Full Moon Scimitar spinning towards him, Wuu Guang formed a Sealing with both hands and summoned all his strength for another low shout; then, a Sword Qi, resembling both a sword and a shield, emerged below him to block the cutting assault of the Full Moon Scimitar.

The Full Moon Scimitar had just destroyed his Sword Qi, so its strength must have weakened, and now with all his power, Wuu Guang had formed this Sword Shield, confident that he could block the scimitar.

Now, as long as he blocked this attack, the person below, without the scimitar by his side and already enveloped by the four powerful Fiery Whirlwinds, would have nowhere to run!

Feeling the raging power of the four Fiery Whirlwinds, even Wuu Guang was somewhat shocked; the force exerted by Wei Wuxi, an Eight-star Martial Venerate, was nearly approaching that of a Nine-star Martial Venerable!

No wonder Wei Wuxi had earlier asked him to restrain the Full Moon Scimitar, confident he could handle the arrogant figure below.

Beneath these four Fiery Whirlwinds, let’s see how he can defend! Let him be arrogant to the extreme! Hmph! Once this man is killed, then this scimitar shall ultimately belong to the strongest—himself!

Thinking about how this scimitar, in the hands of him, an Eight-star Martial Venerate, was able to exert enough power to slay Bai Junshuang and dispel his own Sword Qi, he wondered how powerful he would become once he possessed this scimitar!

This time at the Tianlan Empire’s martial competition for a royal marriage—it truly wasn’t a wasted trip!

Thinking of these things, the corners of Wuu Guang’s mouth couldn’t help but curl into a smirk.

At the same time, right beside Wuu Guang, Wei Wuxi’s face bore a cold smirk as well. Under his Wei Clan’s ultimate skill, the Heavenly Fire Wheel, this arrogant and presumptuous man had no retreat, no escape! Blocking his attack was absolutely impossible! This man was undoubtedly doomed to die!

But then, just as four fierce whirlwinds, about to attack Shi Feng like four fierce beasts, were about to pounce on him, all of a sudden, an equally mad Fiery Blaze burst out of Shi Feng. The blaze was a blood-red color, radiating a chilling, cold power!

The Sacred Flame exploded out of Shi Feng and immediately, the blood-colored Sacred Flame swept towards all directions, engulfing the fierce incoming flame whirlwinds.

Immediately after, the expressions of Wuu Guang and Wei Wuxi changed drastically, as the flame whirlwind, near the strength of the Nine-star Martial Venerable Realm, was devoured by the blood-colored blaze.

At that moment, what shocked Wuu Guang even more was that his Sword Shield, which he’d formed with all his might, also shattered under the swing of the Full Moon Scimitar!

"How... how is this possible... what... what realm of power is this! Why, why is this happening!" Wuu Guang’s face showed an utterly shocked expression, followed by the Full Moon Scimitar spinning into his chest, and then out from his back, splattering blood into the void.

Shi Feng had now stepped into the Eight-star Martial Venerable Realm, and the attack launched with the Full Moon Scimitar had reached the power of Martial Saint. Although merely one word differentiates Martial Saint from Semi-Saint, the power of a Martial Saint is not something a Semi-Saint like Wuu Guang could block.

Having sensed the murderous intent from these two men against him, Shi Feng knew they intended to kill him, and he would definitely not foolishly harbor any mercy.

He would show no mercy to those who harbored the intent to kill him, they must die!

The Full Moon Scimitar broke open Wuu Guang’s chest, slaying him at his heart. Wuu Guang’s body was already wavering mid-air, looking like it could fall down at any moment.

"Am I... about to... die? Traveling thousands of miles to the Tianlan Empire, how could I... encounter such a young genius, come across such an exceptional divine saber... I..."

This was the last thought in Wuu Guang’s mind, and then immediately, his consciousness rapidly retreated from his mind like a tide.

It is unknown what Wuu Guang was about to think next after the final "I", but with his death, this has forever become a mystery!

Immediately following that, Wuu Guang’s corpse rapidly fell from midair.

At that moment, seeing Wuu Guang dead under the Full Moon Scimitar, and his own Heavenly Fire Wheel broken, and such a powerful person like Wuu Guang dead, Wei Wuxi dared not stay any longer. Instantly yielding to panic, he shot upward, using the fastest movement technique he had learned in his life, escaping through space breaking speed.

"Hmph! Since you’ve come and harbored thoughts of slaughtering me, then stay behind for me!" Seeing Wei Wuxi soaring above, Shi Feng said coldly.

Immediately following, a Soul Attack, the Nine Nether Soul-shocking Seal, shook towards Wei Wuxi!

"Ah!"
