Chapter 465: Definitely Will Not Be Soft Hearted or Light Handed!
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Fallen forest leaves were flying around like a swarm of b.u.t.terflies dancing, creating a mysterious sense of beauty in the midst of the fire light. The clangs the swords emitted as they clashed against each other were akin to the screeches of a night owl, making one feel frightened.
Jiang Wuhen crawled back up and wiped the traces of blood by the corner of his lips. His eyeb.a.l.l.s spun around chaotically as he turned around and stumbled as he tried to run away. But he had merely taken a few steps then stopped after seeming to have remembered something. Was he more afraid of the wild beasts in the forest or was he more afraid of Maiden Xiao Rou who was even more fearsome than the wild beasts?
Elder Qiu’s attacking stance became even more intense and a gloomy and a chilling ruthlessness could be seen in his eyes.
“Die!” Elder Qiu shouted as his sword made large slas.h.i.+ng movements towards Ling Chuxi with unstoppable force. This was his strongest attack, and he was confident that with Ling Chuxi’s level of strength, she would definitely be unable to withstand it. This was also the last move he had. In order for this last move to be able to explode with the strongest Battle Qi, he did not even have time to be distracted by using his poisons.
‘It’s a pity that such a good-looking little girl is about to die in the very next moment.’ Seeing Ling Chuxi’s beautiful, peerless face that was coloured with a tinge of fear, this was what Elder Qiu thought. Still, there was not the least bit of mercy in his actions even though he had such a thought. This time, he was bound to win, and there would be no mistakes.
Elder Qiu never thought that this was indeed the last move. However, it was hard to say whose last move it was.
Both their swords collided, setting off a chain of sparks. An odd power enveloped them from all around. Elder Qiu felt his heart tremble. Originally, he had thought that this was just a shockingly mighty Battle Qi whirlwind, but just as he thought this, he felt an oddity within it. Surge after surge of intertwined, suppressive or twisted strength flowed into his body without any regulation or pattern to it. It felt extraordinarily hard to bear and even his sword that contained the Battle Qi of the realm of Great Fulfilment was bent from the irregular force of strength.
Without waiting for Elder Qiu to regain his senses from the shock, Ling Chuxi’s Luo Chen Sword already swung over him like a meteor incoming from outer s.p.a.ce. Ling Chuxi was never one to be soft-hearted toward her enemies.
Back then, if it were not for Baili Han risking his life in order for her to fight for time to see through the mystery of this spiral Battle Qi, even she would have taken a loss if she were to exchange blows hastily. Furthermore, the Elder Qiu who was currently before her, did not have the same great enlightenment abilities as Ling Chuxi did and therefore couldn’t realize the mystery within this spiral Battle Qi.
Elder Qiu shouted loudly and finally managed to release himself with great difficulty from the odd strength enveloping him and used his sword to block Ling Chuxi’s incoming attack.
A crisp clang rang out. Elder Qiu’s expression changed drastically as his face became filled with shock.
Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage. This was actually the Battle Qi of the Pinnacle stage of Great Fulfilment! He had always thought that Ling Chuxi’s cultivation was a little worse off than that of his own, but he never thought that she was actually able to use the Battle Qi of the Great Fulfilment Pinnacle stage.
‘I fell for her scheme!’ This kind of a thought flashed through Elder Qiu’s mind.
That’s right, he had indeed fallen for Ling Chuxi’s scheme. Ling Chuxi had intentionally appeared weak before her enemy as she secretly used the Turning Cloud Gesture to acc.u.mulate the spiral Battle Qi while she pretended to retreat hastily, luring Elder Qiu into a trap. It was only when Elder Qiu used his final blow which contained his full strength did she then use the explosive Battle Qi of the Great Fulfilment Pinnacle Stage to combat him.
In a duel of experts, winning and losing was but a fine line of difference. Elder Qiu realized his mistake too late now. He had thought about using all his strength to strike Ling Chuxi dead on the spot and did not withhold even the least bit strength when he attacked. But now, he did not even have the chance to pull back his sword to defend himself. A huge strength surged towards him like a turbulent tsunami. Elder Qiu’s entire body trembled and the sword in his hand flew off in the far, far away distance.
The might in the Luo Chen Sword gripped in Ling Chuxi’s hand did not abate, as it slashed towards Elder Qiu’s neck with a fierce, murderous intent.
Ling Chuxi most definitely would not be soft hearted, or light handed toward her enemies!
