From the mont Night Spirit struck to its two rounds of fighting against Liang Qiu, then to Su Zimo’s closing in with multiple killing moves to kill Liang Qiu... while the entire process seed slow upon narration, everything only took up two breaths of ti.
The courtyard suddenly fell silent.
ng Han looked at Liang Qiu who fell to the ground with widened eyes of disbelief.
A Golden Core had died in the hands of a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator!
Everything had happened too quickly.
It was so fast that ng Han could barely accept it.
What puzzled ng Han even more was why his flying sword did not manage to penetrate Su Zimo’s palm.
The flying sword had clearly tore through Su Zimo’s flesh but why was it stuck all of a sudden, letting out the sound of tal clashing?
If not for that, Liang Qiu would not have died!
That was the truth.
Even though Su Zimo was both an immortal and demon cultivator and Night Spirit had extrely sharp claws, in terms of actual strength, neither of them could take Golden Cores head on.
Given another environnt and situation, both Su Zimo and Night Spirit could only flee in a one-on-one situation.
However, there were too many factors affecting the outco of a battle between cultivators.
Night Spirit had the most credit for them being able to kill a Golden Core.
If it had not attacked to destroy Liang Qiu’s protection talisman while drawing away most of his attention, Su Zimo would not have had the chance to close in.
Naturally, Liang Qiu’s greatest mistake was in underestimating Su Zimo’s spirit and determination!
It wasn’t just him; ng Han had not expected that Su Zimo would dare retaliate against the assassination of two Golden Cores as well!
In just two breaths’ ti, the situation had already turned upside down.
Liang Qiu was dead.
ng Han was the only one left now.
Most importantly, he only had three breaths of ti left.
At so point in ti, a girl around 18 years old walked out from one of the rooms. Possessing exceptional beauty while wearing an elegant long dress, her withered hair was curled and rested behind her back.
A flying sword hovered in front of Nian Qi, trembling and emitting a bright glow.
There were four spirit patterns shining on it!
It was a supre-grade flying sword!
ng Han took a glance and his mouth cramped while his eyeballs nearly dropped out of his sockets.
As a Golden Core, he had lived for more than 400 years. Even now that he was approaching death, he had never used a supre-grade flying sword in his life.
However, that girl was only a maidservant at early-stage Foundation Establishnt and she had a supre-grade flying sword of her own?
Suddenly, ng Han recalled so of the recent rumors in the capital. Many cultivators said that the green-robed cultivator before him was the number one Weapon Refinent Master of the entire Great Zhou Dynasty and could even customize supre-grade spirit weapons.
Prior to this, ng Han scoffed and refused to believe the rumors.
He had lived for so long but he hadn’t heard of any Weapon Refinent Masters who would dare boast that they could customize supre-grade spirit weapons.
But now, when he caught sight of the supre-grade flying sword hovering before Nian Qi, ng Han believed it.
If even a maidservant had a supre-grade flying sword, how many supre-grade spirit weapons did Mo Ling possess?
...
In the courtyard, Su Zimo, Night Spirit and Nian Qi stood in three different directions, facing off against ng Han.
Normally, a little girl at early-stage Foundation Establishnt should pose no threat to ng Han.
However, the problem was with the supre-grade flying sword that she was wielding!
While early-stage Foundation Establishnt Cultivators clearly had insufficient strength, the killing power of the supre-grade flying sword was way too great.
The two n and one beast had different thods – any single one of them would be insignificant individually.
However, all three of them had their own trump cards and could not be underestimated!
Nian Qi’s supre-grade flying sword.
Night Spirit’s claws and its imnsely strong physique.
As for Su Zimo, he was the one most unfathomable to ng Han.
He possessed the agility and speed of demon beasts, a terrifying burst power, an intricate technique for lee combat as well as a keen sensitivity towards danger...
Against that Foundation Establishnt Cultivator, ng Han actually felt a sense of fear from the depths of his heart!
“Ah!”
Abandoning all unnecessary thoughts, ng Han bellowed and struck all of a sudden.
He could not wait any longer!
This was his final gambit and chance to kill Su Zimo!
Pshew! Pshew!
ng Han’s sleeves flapped as two flying swords shot out.
At the sa ti, he conjured a seal with his left hand, condensing a gigantic fiery disk that enveloped Night Spirit.
ng Han’s attack was one versus three and he had individual strategies for them!
After witnessing Night Spirit’s speed, he knew that it would be difficult to block Night Spirit using flying swords unless his sword wielding technique was intricate enough.
Therefore, ng Han chose to attack with a spirit art that had a wider area of effect!
The purpose of that spirit art was rely to slow Night Spirit down.
As for the other two extrely fast flying swords, one of them targeted Nian Qi while the other was aid at Su Zimo.
Su Zimo’s eyes flickered. The mont ng Han struck with his swords, Su Zimo’s figure shifted and moved swiftly close to the ground, arriving before the forr in the blink of an eye.
Rising, Su Zimo took a deep breath and his chest puffed up. He knelt with one knee on the ground and raised both hands as if he was holding a peach in his palms while killing intent spewed from his eyes!
“You were tricked!”
ng Han’s eyes lit up as he let out a sinister chuckle. Churning his Golden Core, his hands conjured seals and two long spears were ford, piercing viciously towards Su Zimo!
This was the mont he was waiting for!
A full-powered strike by a Golden Core as such was sothing that Su Zimo could not face head-on!
The mont Liang Qiu fell, ng Han realized that even if he were to use all his might against Su Zimo, as long as the latter were to avoid at all cost, it would be difficult for him to kill the other party within three breaths.
Therefore, ng Han chose to restrain Night Spirit first before attacking Su Zimo and Nian Qi at the sa ti!
The single sword posed no threat to Su Zimo.
However, it was enough to kill Nian Qi!
Not everyone had Su Zimo’s spirit perception and could dodge the flying sword of a Golden Core at Foundation Establishnt realm.
Hence, if Su Zimo wanted to save Nian Qi, he would have to attack ng Han with all his might!
This was the sa scene as when Su Zimo killed Liang Qiu earlier on.
However, the difference was that Liang Qiu was unprepared.
But ng Han was fully prepared!
Before the flying sword struck Nian Qi, it fell to the ground without ng Han’s control.
That attack was rely a feint to lure Su Zimo forward.
ng Han’s full attention was focused on Su Zimo right from the beginning!
Su Zimo was half-knelt on the ground while ng Han stood upright, looking down at the forr. The two of them were extrely close and it was almost face-to-face.
It seed like Su Zimo’s ending was already decided.
Suddenly, ng Han saw a trace of mockery in Su Zimo’s eyes.
“Kill!”
The next mont, Su Zimo opened his mouth and let out a deafening roar from deep in his throat!
A huge stream of air shot out like an arrow.
Totally unprepared, ng Han’s body shook and he was slightly dazed. His hands paused for a mont but it was still thrusting down!
The mont ng Han was montarily dazed, Su Zimo had already exerted strength in both legs and fell to the ground while retreating back.
The entire process was fluid as water without any sense of sluggishness at all.
Su Zimo had rushed to the front while retreating even swifter without any delay at all!
ng Han’s first attack was a feint.
However, Su Zimo’s Sanguine Ape Fruit Offering was also a feint!
The one that was tricked was not Su Zimo, but ng Han.
Su Zimo realized that ng Han would try to kill him but he could not ignore Nian Qi. That was why he made this move of advancing to retreat.
In this psychological warfare on the brink of death, Su Zimo was still the one that won in the end.
