The Aloof Lord's Mysterious Wife
Chapter 627: Fighting Leads to Breakthrough!

Chapter 627: Fighting Leads to Breakthrough!

They looked again at the Ninth Prince and his wife.

One was pouring tea for his wife.

The other was munching on pastries, casually inviting Qi Mu to sit down and eat with him.

Clearly, they had no intention of helping.

The four of them exchanged glances, already understanding each other.

If they didn’t fight, they’d have to end their lives.

If they fought, there was a chance of survival!

"Grab your weapons!" the female sect leader commanded. The other three immediately drew their weapons and surrounded Chu Yang.

"Fourth Brother, go ahead!" Nanli wasn’t really going to just watch.

She threw her Dark Moon Sword.

They all had sharp, gleaming weapons, and since Fourth Brother hadn’t brought his Tiger Head Spear, she couldn’t let him face them empty-handed.

"Thank you, Sixth Sister." Chu Yang took it, feeling the Peachwood Sword might look light, but it felt heavier in his hand.

Seeing him wielding just a wooden sword, the others secretly laughed at his arrogance.

It’s just a wooden sword.

One strike, and it would break!

Chu Yang adjusted his breathing, his internal energy in his Dantian rolling, filling his meridians. He actually felt more agile, with sharper senses and faster movement than before.

Without a word, the four attacked together, launching a sneaky assault.

Fortunately, Chu Yang reacted quickly, dodging while blocking their strikes.

Qi Mu gritted his teeth in anger: "Damn it!"

Master Zhao saw the four attacking, Chu Yang restricted in every move, and couldn’t help but worry.

"Princess, can Fourth Young Master really do this? Wait... his Fire Cloud Spell is already at the sixth layer?! This won’t do, he only practiced the martial arts technique, but he hasn’t learned any actual moves, and he’s holding a wooden sword..."

However, before Master Zhao could finish speaking, Chu Yang used his Dark Moon Sword to directly sever one of the leader’s arms!

Blood sprayed everywhere!

He didn’t even blink.

Seizing the opportunity, he moved even faster, kicked one person over, and immediately slashed the person’s throat.

A male sect leader saw his brutality and shouted in fury. He unfurled his sword, performing a dazzling sword dance, exuding a fierce aura.

But Chu Yang cut through the air with a blast of energy, directly severing the sword and causing the male sect leader to fall to the ground, spitting blood and unconscious.

Only the female sect leader remained.

Her face turned pale, and in her panic, she didn’t dare to slack off.

At the moment of striking, her weapon released a poisoned hidden dart!

Chu Yang obviously didn’t expect this, and the dart struck his shoulder.

The female sect leader laughed coldly: "I didn’t say no hidden weapons earlier, did I? Fourth Young Master, if you surrender, I’ll give you the antidote right away."

She only wanted to stay alive.

She didn’t want to fight Chu Yang to the death.

Chu Yang frowned as he pulled out the dart, but there was no blood on it.

The female sect leader widened her eyes in disbelief: "How come it didn’t pierce you?"

Qi Mu and Master Zhao also stared wide-eyed.

"What is this?" Qi Mu asked.

Nanli explained: "This Fire Cloud Spell should be considered a martial technique. Fourth Brother has cultivated it properly and with talent. Reaching this level, his body is already as tough as iron. Hidden darts shot with ordinary inner strength can hardly harm him."

Ye Siheng nodded beside her.

Qi Mu turned to Master Zhao: "Is that true? Master Zhao, are you that skilled too?"

Master Zhao’s face was awkward as he rubbed his hands: "I... I haven’t reached that level."

"Aren’t you at the seventh layer? You should be stronger than Fourth Young Master!"

Master Zhao was deeply dejected, saying with a pained expression: "I failed to grasp it properly, so I haven’t reached this level. To be honest, I just have the appearance of understanding it, but I haven’t grasped the essence of the Fire Cloud Spell!"

Qi Mu wanted to say something but, being younger, could only offer Master Zhao some consolation: "It’s alright, Fourth Young Master has grasped it now. You can ask him for guidance."

As they spoke, Chu Yang swung his sword and decapitated the female sect leader.

As her head fell to the ground, a thought echoed in his mind: For those who are beyond redemption, there’s no need for mercy. Severing the enemy’s head is the most secure way to kill.

Inside his Dantian, his internal energy surged.

In that moment, Chu Yang felt his veins swelling with pain as his internal power surged higher!

The Dark Moon Sword was not stained with a single drop of blood.

He took a deep breath, beads of sweat forming on his forehead, and then roared, sending his power through his body, gathering back into his Dantian.

Everyone could see that his body was surrounded by a powerful aura!

It was spiritual energy!

There was a faint flow of spiritual energy around him!

At this moment, he had broken through two layers of the Fire Cloud Spell and had reached the eighth layer!

His aura was more intense.

His internal power had increased further.

"Heavens...!" Master Zhao was so shocked he couldn’t speak, trembling all over with excitement.

Chu Yang’s meridians flowed smoothly, and he felt his body had become somewhat sturdier.

He was overjoyed and waved his sword towards Nanli: "Sixth Sister, I’ve broken through!"

Nanli stopped eating pastries and rushed to Chu Yang’s side: "Congratulations, Fourth Brother! I didn’t expect you to gain insight during the fight."

Chu Yang smiled:

"Because when I fight, I use my Dantian energy to flow through my body. I’ve learned to control my power and use it to protect myself from injury while fighting."

"However, there’s too little power. If I use it all at once, it will quickly deplete, but it’s fast enough to respond and use it quickly, so it still works."

Nanli nodded: "Yes, Fourth Brother, your insight is quite high."

She couldn’t help but pinch Chu Yang’s arm.

Indeed, it was solid!

Ye Siheng, observing from behind, suddenly squinted his eyes.

After the two siblings celebrated, Chu Yang finally looked at the five disciples of the sects and said coldly: "Your leaders are dead or injured. I advise you, if you don’t want your sects to be disbanded, stop bullying the people. Otherwise, I’ll come back and teach you a lesson!"

The disciples of the sects, trembling in fear, quickly promised not to cause trouble again.

As they were about to leave, Chu Yang said: "Carry your leaders’ bodies. Don’t dirty the Flame Sect’s land."

The disciples quickly nodded in agreement.

The female sect leader was dragged away.

As for the head, no one dared to carry it, so it was kicked away in the end.

Nanli looked at the clean cut on the female sect leader’s neck and couldn’t help but frown. It looked just like Xuan Yinyue’s chopping technique.

Could it be?

Were their origins related... Did Xuan Jingmo and Xuan Yinyue teach Fourth Brother how to chop people?

Fourth Brother, don’t tell me you’ll take on a title like "Chopper"!

As Nanli thought this, Chu Yang returned the Dark Moon Sword, still feeling unsatisfied: "Sixth Sister, this sword is really good, just like when I used it before."

Nanli replied: "Why don’t you keep using it?"

After all, it belonged to that senior sibling.

"The Peachwood Sword isn’t suitable for me. I don’t exorcise ghosts or demons," Chu Yang shook his head. "I still prefer fighting. Sixth Sister, give me some Teleportation Talismans. Tomorrow, I’m going to challenge the top martial artists in the world!"
