Chapter 182: Chapter 171: Assault (Part 2)

"Exorcism Sword Guard, Blood Sacrifice to Heaven."

At that command, ten Exorcism Sword Guards instinctively used the Cangsheng Sect’s life-or-death Forbidden Technique, ingrained in their minds.

Essence blood transformed into Primordial Energy, causing the power of these guards, merely at the Innate Second and Third Layer, to surge unceasingly, then silently charging towards their respective targets.

The burning of their entire essence blood into True Qi, and yet remaining silent through such anguish, was truly fearsome.

"We go too."

Qing Yu gestured to Luo Yan, wielding dual swords, and picked a Japanese samurai as his opponent.

"Taiyi Splitting Light Sword·One Origin Rebirth Taiji."

The dual swords united, and during the sword strike, they split into two paths, yet carried the force of both arms. This starting move of the Taiyi Splitting Light Sword was Qing Yu’s favorite. In his view, though many sword moves were intricately beautiful, it was the simplicity and direct enhancement of force in this move that far surpassed those that required time to build up power.

And when facing an opponent of equal strength, such moves allowed him to have a significant upper hand and the initiative.

Just like now, the Japanese samurai chosen by Qing Yu, under his dual swords, was parrying left and supporting right, and in a mere moment, received injuries to his thigh and waist side.

And that was not all...

"There’s poison!" the samurai suddenly shouted.

Not only were the weapons of the Exorcism Sword Guards poisoned, but so were Qing Yu’s swords.

Meanwhile, a pitiful scream came from another direction, from the Japanese Ninja. Ninjas generally underwent poison resistance training, and despite multiple crossbow arrows embedding deep into his body, the intense pain had made him overlook the encroaching poison, until now when the poison fully took effect.

But by then, it was already too late, a flash of sword light, and the ninja was dissected by the "Dismantling Blade Style," beheaded by Six Yang Leader, and body split into five parts.

Seeing the outcome of that battle, Qing Yu smiled grimly, "Your time to go down as well."

Intricately refined skills cleanse a thousand clever methods, and Wanxiang Hunyuan embodies Taizhen.

The dual swords danced, revealing a round shape, split into Yin and Yang, resembling Taiji, with the formidable Sword Qi circle seeming almost tangible, making this Japanese samurai as if stuck in a quagmire, barely able to move, with invisible True Qi compressing his form all around.

To seek a swift conclusion, Qing Yu used for the first time since fighting Lu Yi, the highest mystery of Taiyi Splitting Light Sword Qi Union, Eightfold True Energy roared incessantly within him, pressuring the enemy while also exerting immense stress on his meridians and body.

"Die!"

Right at the center of the Taiji Sword Circle, an "S" shaped Sword Qi emerged, slicing through Yin Yang, dividing the Japanese samurai into two parts, separating the upper body and lower body across the waist.

And just as he killed the enemy, thinking no one else was left in the courtyard, a figure clad in Juzu (Japanese general’s armor) suddenly burst out from the thick smoke, katana raised high overhead, leaping towards Qing Yu.

"Fujita Heijiro, did you think I could forget you?"

After slaying the Japanese samurai, Qing Yu didn’t disperse his Eightfold True Energy, for he knew there was still one person missing on the scene, but instead, he merged his Dual Swords and with a turn of his body, he forcefully cleaved through the figure that had suddenly attacked from the courtyard.

Fujita Heijiro, the nominal spokesman for the East Sea Commerce, regardless of his Martial Arts skills, certainly held no ordinary status; those people would never allow him to just die amidst the flames and poison smoke.

"Do you know me?" Fujita Heijiro’s voice sounded muffled and hollow from beneath the ghost-faced mask he wore, he was quite sure he had never seen this young figure before, yet the opponent seemed to have met him.

In response, two flashes of Sword Light burst forth momentarily. With time pressing, there was no time to dally with him.

A resolute intent to kill also quenched Fujita Heijiro’s thoughts of stalling, a fight to the death brooked no room for negligence. He immediately gripped his Katana and threw himself into the deadly duel.

Traceless.

The Sword Light moved invisibly yet it actually struck Fujita Heijiro, leaving a deep scratch on the Juzu armor.

This Juzu... Qing Yu contemplated that under his Eightfold True Energy, even steel could be sliced into two pieces, yet it could not break through this Juzu—this armor must be a treasure.

Fujita Heijiro too was startled by Qing Yu’s strike. Normally, a Martial Artist of the Innate Realm could only leave a scratch on it, yet the opponent nearly broke through the Juzu, endangering his actual body. How could he not be alarmed? A few more swipes, and wearing the Juzu would be pointless.

Without the Juzu armor to protect his body, under the opponent’s fierce Sword Momentum, how could his flesh and blood be harder than the Juzu?

With fear seizing his heart, even Fujita Heijiro’s initially resolute will started to waver. After all, he was only a noble son who had never truly experienced a life-and-death struggle; now, he had the mentality of stalling the opponent, waiting for Lin Tengyuan to come to help.

After the Juzu was again deeply slashed open by Qing Yu, Fujita Heijiro couldn’t help but say, "Sir, although you’ve caught us off guard causing heavy losses, we have always had good relations with Mr. Lin of the Six Gates. The smoke here is dense, and he must be rushing over right now. If you leave now, you might still preserve your life."

"Will you last until then?" Qing Yu saw the fear in Fujita Heijiro’s tactics, and while his hands didn’t stop, he used his words to keep attacking his confidence.

With an inexplicable gleam in his eye, he shook Fujita Heijiro’s resolve by using "Mind Control Spell" through his Taixu Eye, "Look over there."

Although Fujita Heijiro told himself not to be distracted, his body involuntarily looked in the direction indicated by the opponent.

He saw three Exorcism Sword Guards using their bodies as shields, one of them even clamping a Japanese samurai’s Katana between his ribs, all three tightly gripping the samurai.

And behind these three, another three Exorcism Sword Guards mercilessly pierced their long swords through the bodies of the three guards, stabbing into the vitals of the Japanese samurai.

"You won’t last until then!"

Qing Yu pushed his Power to the extreme, and his Eightfold True Energy thickened the air around him, "Lin Tengyuan won’t be able to save your life."

··················

At the city gate, Lin Tengyuan, whom Fujita Heijiro was desperately hoping for, was glaring at several black-clothed men with a dark expression, "Didn’t you from Shadow Pavilion say you wouldn’t interfere? Why go back on your word now?"

"Businessmen, after all, align everything with profit, can the word of a businessman be counted as going back on one’s word!" Hei Yiran, leading them, laughed.

"Do you truly think I dare not kill you!" It was clear that this joking tone had completely enraged Lin Tengyuan, and a bone-chilling killing intent emanated from this sole Divine Origin Realm expert in Linchuan Prefecture—he was ready to kill.

"Rather than killing us, perhaps you should look over there; someone’s about to die!"
