At the mont, Zen had no plans of backing off. It did not matter whether it was Yates or Jas that he had to face. It was simply out of the question.
The reason why he did not back was simple. He was confident in his own strength.
However, when he saw the sword energy trying to destroy him, he could not help but start to retreat.
It was not out of fear though. He was simply not a fool or a coward. After all, his body, which was a spiritual weapon, possessed a defensive power much stronger than that of an ordinary warrior.
On the other hand, the opponent was a master at the Illuminating Soul Realm.
What he had in his hand was a fairy weapon, and no one would wish to be at the receiving end of the sword energy!
The sword energy did not have high speed at the beginning. In fact, it had the sa pace as ordinary people who aimlessly trotted. However, after it focused on Zen as the target, its velocity greatly increased all of a sudden.
The sword energy brought a baby blue shadow in the air, and then it tried to cut Zen at an incredibly high speed.
It was rapid, indeed, but Zen was not slow either.
Moving backward, he swung a fist at the sword energy.
A part of him had hoped that the Heavenly Ogre Fist could counteract the power of the sword energy.
At that mont, he gave it his best shot and unceasingly tried to subdue his opponent's power. Each ti he swung his fist, a dark purple fist shadow dashed towards the sword energy.
With the power of the Phoenix Crystal, he made dozens of fist shadows in an instant.
To his great surprise, however, the first fist shadow that had struck the sword energy went through it directly. The sword energy was unscathed.
'It's useless?'
When Zen realized that his attack did not affect the sword energy, he felt a pang of disappointnt. Slowly, the reason dawned on him.
The sword energy rely emitted from a low-grade fairy weapon with strong power. It was not made from life vitality, so his Heavenly Ogre Fist could do nothing to it.
As soon as he saw that the first fist shadow had failed to counteract the sword energy's power, he reacted quickly and changed his tactic.
When the second fist shadow reached the sword energy, he decisively ignited the star power in his life vitality
“Bang!”
The explosion from the star power created a violent and bright light, releasing an imnse force of annihilation.
On the other hand, right after the bright light disappeared, the sword energy showed no sign of weakening and still rushed to slash Zen.
'It's still useless, ' he thought to himself.
As all his thods had been weak against the sword energy so far, he could not help but feel a bit frustrated.
The master at the Illuminating Soul Realm was too powerful.
Even if the Mo Clan was only a declining clan, as the master, Jas still possessed a remarkably powerful strength, which was beyond what Zen had expected.
In the past, he had fought against soone at the Illuminating Soul Realm twice and did not suffer any loss. This ti though, he deeply realized the horrible power of the masters at this realm.
Due to his astonishnt, he thought but quickly forgot about his realm.
The nature creature and master at the Illuminating Soul Realm had a large gap in terms of strength.
There was a world of difference.
Zen could force Jas to show the master card, the Ruin Sword, and it was enough to make every nature creature in the world feel deeply ashad.
If Zen could resist Jas' sword this ti, then all the nature creatures might commit suicide. After all, Zen was only at grade 1 of the nature level.
When Zen retreated hastily, he had moved back to the edge of the courtyard. Facing the high wall made of green bricks, he did not have ti to think and dashed to the wall with his tough back. In almost a humorous manner, he dashed through the wall and created a human-shaped hole, as if it was jerry-built.
anwhile, the sword energy trailed after Zen as if it was his shadow and entered through the hole in the wall. Except that the shadow was taller than Zen. It had the height of about nine feet, so it cut the wall with a tiny crack.
All the people stared at the wall with different expressions.
The people who stood on the Mo Clan's side naturally thought that Zen was going to kick the bucket, as they did not think that he could avoid the sword energy. How could a nature creature avoid the attack of a master at the Illuminating Soul Realm with all of his strength?
So far, Zen had deflected Jas' attacks with all kinds of weapons successfully. If he could stay alive despite the sword energy chasing after him, that would be incredible.
anwhile, the disciples of Cloud Sect like Wurth and Nina wore worried expressions. Without a doubt, they hoped that Zen could escape from death and avoid the sword energy. Regardless, they could not deny thinking that it was impossible.
“Bang, bang!”
The violent clash appeared continuously from the side of the wall. It appeared that Zen had run through so many walls just to dodge the sword energy.
At this ti, Nina could not stand it anymore. Creasing her beautiful brows lightly, she tried to calm down and then spoke to Jas,“Master Mo, Zen is just a junior and has said sothing unpleasant to hear, but he doesn't deserve to die. Please forgive him.”
At that mont, Jas still held up the long sword and pointed out the direction of the sword's tip with his fingers. When he was controlling the sword energy to chase Zen, he saw that it was almost about to kill him, but the man managed to run away because of Nina's interruption.
However, Jas was not anxious. If this sword energy could not kill Zen, Jas would have wasted so many years cultivating.
When Jas heard Nina's words, he smiled casually,“Since he has said sothing wrong, he needs to pay the price. I am just teaching him a lesson.”
Jas was unwilling to let the man go. Although he said he was simply teaching Zen a lesson, how could the man stay alive if the sword energy chopped his body?
“Teach him a lesson?” questioned Nina.
“Master Mo, please. You can't kill Zen! He saved my life. If you really kill him, I think the Mo Clan will not have a reasonable explanation to the Zhu Clan.”
When Nina saw that her diation was futile, she took a tougher approach.
In front of the powerful Zhu Clan, the small Mo Clan was hardly worth ntioning.
Jas wore a long face. Did Nina just dare to threaten him?
Compared to the powerful Zhu Clan, although the Mo Clan was also one of the noble clans, it was, in fact, quite powerless.
In all honesty, Nina's threat had worked. After all, her status was clear to Jas. If she employed the Zhu Clan's resources to defeat the Mo Clan, his clan would surely suffer.
There was no need to suppress the Mo Clan with weapons. After all, the Mo Clan was not wealthy, and their current inco ca from several mines in the south of the Imperial Capital.
However, with the power of the Zhu Clan, they could easily take away the economic lifeline of the Mo Clan, and thus, put the whole clan in imminent danger.
Jas thought about it carefully. Although the Mo Clan was a declining noble clan, sotis a slight move in one part might affect a bigger situation as a whole. The Zhu Clan was powerful, but they had enemies. As a result, they could only take action after taking all things into consideration and therefore, might not listen to this little girl.
Moreover, he was the master of a clan and a powerful man at the Illuminating Soul Realm. A little girl hardly intimidated him.
Laughing, Jas said,“Miss Zhu, don't joke with . If I ever do anything I shouldn't be doing, I will carry a rod and ask the Zhu Clan to spank .”
Indirectly, he ant that he was unwilling to yield. As Nina heard his response, she wore a straight face. Now, all she could do was hope that soone from the Zhu Clan would co soon.
Unable to speak, Nina pressed her lips tightly. At that mont, Wurth decided to step forward.
Earlier, Wurth had said that he would play with Zen today. But he had been watching the play for a long while, and saw that Zen was in trouble. While watching the man run for his life with Jas' sword energy chasing him, Wurth thought he had to do sothing.
“Mr. Mo, can I say sothing?”
Wurth saluted to Jas.
As Zen's speed was faster than he expected, Jas grew impatient. On top of having to concentrate on controlling the sword energy to chase Zen, he had to deal with these juniors interrupting him.
Granted, Jas could show so respect for Nina. However, what was wrong with this little fatty in front of him? Annoyed, he asked coldly,“What? Who are you?”
“I am the third son of the Zhang Clan. My na is Wurth,” he introduced himself, clasping his hands.
There were many people with the family na of Zhang in the Imperial Capital of Burning Sky Empire. This fatty claid he was from the Zhang Clan and the third son, so apparently he had to be from the Blessed Zhang Clan with treasures filling the ho. Since he was “the third son”, he was probably the son of the direct line.
Although Wurth spoke in a low voice, most of the people around him heard his introduction clearly.
It was at this mont that Jas controlled the sword energy and forced Zen into a dead corner. Because of Wurth's disturbance, Zen avoided the sword energy and turned to flee, which threw Jas into a fit of rage.
Still, he felt inclined to think about the problem at hand.
'The Zhang Clan?
This fatty belongs to the Zhang Clan?'
As soon as the thought dawned on him, he could not help but feel the onset of a headache.
For now, he could just ignore the Zhu Clan, as the Mo Clan did not have a direct common interest with the Zhu Clan. If the Zhu Clan wanted to close the mines of the Mo Clan, which although seed easy, it would take a lot of effort. Other noble clans would also probably try to stop it.
Getting on the wrong side of the Zhang Clan, though, was another thing.
The Zhang Clan was not one of the top seven noble clans, and yet it nearly controlled the entire economic lifeline of the whole empire.
More importantly, the mines of the Mo Clan transacted through the Zhang Clan, and they settled accounts in the exchange shop of the Zhang Clan.
Although they could sell fire crystals produced in the mines to others instead of the Zhang Clan, this clan had the influence almost everywhere. If he offended the Zhu Clan, perhaps it would bring the Mo Clan a lot of big trouble, but there were solutions. It was not a totally lost cause.
While if he offended the Zhang Clan, it would be difficult to move a single step for the Mo Clan in the future.
What happened? Why were all the friends that Nory brought ho difficult to handle?
He felt sothing was strange about it.
And he was not alone. Not only Jas felt this way, so did Yates who had shrunk in the side.
'Nory is just a disaster! He brought Zen to embarrass , and now soone from the Zhang Clan is getting my dad in trouble.
Nory, I will kill you sooner or later.' With blood in his eyes, Yates stared at Nory.
The friends he had brought stood aside in silence.
His friends were also disciples from the noble clans. Their clans were much more powerful than the Mo Clan, but not as strong as the Zhu Clan and Zhang Clan, which was not one of the top seven noble clans. On such an occasion, they did not qualify to speak.
As they thought about how they had looked down on Nory's friends just now, they finally realized that although Nory appeared to be easy to bully, he was actually soone strong enough who just pretended to be weak. The sa could be said about the people beside him.
Due to this realization, soone even looked at Sean up and down secretly and thought that this person would stand up and claim that he was also from one of the top seven noble clans.
They found Sean's identity quite mysterious.
This ti, though, they guessed wrong. Unlike their presumptions, Sean was actually soone who ca from a poor family without any background.
