207: Chapter 148: Kun Sword Slays the Dragon_2 207: Chapter 148: Kun Sword Slays the Dragon_2 She thrust her longsword repeatedly, aiming at the opponent’s limbs, intending to capture him.
But as the tip of her sword swept past that figure, the Female Swordsman realized there was no Lin Xing in front of her, only a pile of broken tiles and stones that she had mistaken for him.
The very next mont, as she had just blocked a dragon’s claw and lunged with another sword thrust, she found herself mistaking a mop on the ground for Lin Xing again.
The consecutive mistakes already made the Female Swordsman sense sothing was terribly wrong.
“My Heart-Eye technique has long been perfected, my senses are far sharper than ordinary people can imagine, how could I be mistaken, and twice at that?”
Indeed, as the Female Swordsman thought, the ground, the walls, other people’s bodies, and even the serpentine dragon’s twisted scales seed to all form various images of Lin Xing…
What frustrated her even more was that she found herself gaining so inexplicable insights among these Lin Xing figures, as if they intended to teach her sothing.
This made her feel that her swordsmanship was no longer so pure.
At this mont, the Female Swordsman finally understood the reason for the dragon’s madness.
“What kind of blasted thing is this.”
She considered herself well-versed in the martial world, having seen all the sects’ legacies, but had never co across such a bizarre technique.
But with a formidable enemy in front of her, there was no ti to ponder further.
The Female Swordsman roared furiously, and twelve beams of sword energy burst from her spine.
A few strands of white appeared in her hair suddenly.
Accompanied by a mad howl, thirteen streaks of sword light slashed in every direction.
Slash slash slash slash slash slash slash!
In that mont, the Female Swordsman’s figure seed to blur into a frenzied gust, the dazzling sword light slashing at every bit of space around her.
Whether it was the dragon that appeared and disappeared, or the lingering shadow of Lin Xing.
The Female Swordsman no longer cared and focused on annihilating all enemies that approached her.
Amidst the siege by the Female Swordsman and Lin Xing, the dragon’s flesh flew off in chunks, and large scales dropped continuously.
Not far away, Du Chuang watched in amazent.
At first sight of the dragon descending from the sky, he felt its awe-inspiring presence, seemingly unstoppable.
Then, after seeing Lin Xing attack the dragon and it disappear into the mist, he felt the troubleso nature of this ability.
But as the battle suddenly took a sharp turn, it caught him completely off guard.
He asked, “Master, he and this suddenly erging white-clad Female Swordsman seem about to slay the dragon.”
“It’s unknown what they have cultivated that could drive this dragon mad repeatedly.”
Watching the dragon retreat step by step, Xuan Jizi suddenly stepped forward: “I see great fortune upon him; let us lend them a hand.”
Following him, Du Chuang said, “This dragon is almost defeated.”
Xuan Jizi: “Nonsense, that’s exactly why we need to hurry and help, or it will be too late.”
Xuan Jizi pulled out a talisman paper, and with a word, uttered a string of talisman incantations.
“Heavenly lightning Wuji, obey my command, cleanse the demon!”
The next mont, the talisman paper ignited without fla, and a muffled rumble echoed in the sky.
The dragon, which was in the midst of swallowing a large tree, was suddenly struck by a lightning bolt.
At the sa ti, a thunderbolt exploded beside it.
The Female Swordsman’s thirteen beams of sword light tore large chunks of scales from the dragon’s body.
With a final cry of agony, a flood dragon soared into the sky before once again diving into the thick clouds and disappearing from sight.
This ti, it seed the flood dragon had completely retreated from the battlefield, not appearing again for a long while.
The swordswoman, Bai Yiyi, scanned her surroundings, hesitating for a mont before deciding to retreat first and deal with the strange phenonon affecting her later.
“Hehehe, Lin Xing, I’ll co to play with you next ti,” she chuckled.
With a few leaps, she made her way, killing several more soldiers along the path, and vanished from the city in the blink of an eye.
Watching this unfold, Lin Xing sighed softly, feeling the nearly depleted spiritual thoughts in his mind, and chose not to pursue her.
In the past two days, he had first stord into the Imperial Palace, then chased after Ma Hong to the Mirror World, and after that battled continuously at the Duke Mansion, experiencing countless ti reversals.
At this mont, whether it was his energy, physical strength, or spiritual thoughts, everything was severely depleted.
He did not have much strength left to chase after the swordswoman.
“It’s a pity I couldn’t bring this madwoman to justice this ti.”
Recalling the many mories of ti reversals in his mind, Lin Xing distinctly rembered that she had attempted to assassinate Jing Shiyu several tis.
If it weren’t for Jing Shiyu managing to hit the detonator of an explosive device just before dying each ti, this grand battle might not have ended so smoothly.
With Lin Xing’s sense of justice, dealing with such evil figures usually ant eradicating them completely.
Had it not been for the excessive exhaustion from back-to-back battles, he would surely have pursued her to eliminate the threat once and for all.
Although he had repelled the flood dragon and the swordswoman, the matter was far from over.
Lin Xing, dragging his weary body, hurriedly sought out Bai Yiyi and the King of Hailan.
anwhile, Xuan Jizi also hastened towards Lin Xing’s location.
The interior of the Duke Mansion had experienced several fierce battles, turning into a grueso scene of mountains of corpses and rivers of blood, with ruins everywhere, leaving only a few intact buildings remaining.
Xuan Jizi, accompanied by his disciple, couldn’t help but feel the bodies strewn all over as he moved, the air saturated with the stench of blood and the sll of burning.
He thought to himself, “Not only is this man’s mastery of Daoist arts earth-shattering, but he also shows no rcy when it cos to killing.”
“Who the hell said that the people in secret realms are as weak as lambs?
Thank goodness I didn’t go to the secret realm; for all I know, it might be even more dangerous than Great Zhou.”
Upon seeing Lin Xing, Xuan Jizi cheerfully said, “Your Excellency has successfully subdued the Zhou Tian Sect, and I fear your fa will soon spread far and wide.”
Lin Xing, feeling the fog in his mind clearing, allowed a slight smile to form on his lips.
He mused to himself, “I’ve traveled thousands of miles, risking our lives together, penetrating deep into the Zhou Tian Sect’s stronghold.
We eradicated a den of poison, executed criminals, and saved the King.”
“We also captured a significant amount of video material, sufficient to expose the dark secrets of the Mirror World and the Zhou Tian Sect upon our return.
Such acts of heroism, bringing benefits to the region, would be considered virtuous in any world.”
Watching as the fog surrounding his ditative skills dissipated, leaving less than one-tenth remaining and still vanishing, Lin Xing felt even more satisfied with his actions.
Xuan Jizi continued praising Lin Xing, and finally shared his intentions, “I see that Your Excellency has acquired quite a few relics of the Evil Sect.
I wonder if you could share a few with ?”
Lin Xing, however, shook his head.
Not to ntion his own need for these relics of the Evil Sect; even the remainder could be given to Jing Shiyu and the others to use, leaving nothing to spare for others.
Trying another approach, Xuan Jizi reasoned, “Have you seen the owner of that flood dragon?
That person is likely an unparalleled expert from the Evil Sect.”
“As the Evil-cutting Sect Master, I am targeted by this expert for my eradication of evil spirits.
If you keep these relics, fearso experts from the Evil Sect might also mark you.”
Lin Xing’s gaze shifted slightly as he recalled how the flood dragon had targeted Master Bai upon its arrival, thinking it had been because the Master possessed relics of the Evil Sect.
Hearing Xuan Jizi’s argunt, new thoughts erged, “Puppets are also creations of the Evil Sect.
The flood dragon imdiately tried to seize the Jade Girl’s corpse, so could it be that, apart from the relics, that scholar likely wanted to retrieve the puppets as well?”
Touched by Xuan Jizi’s well-intentioned warning, Lin Xing’s sense of heroism made him say, “Indeed, that expert from the Evil Sect is dangerous.
If you all have any relics of evil spirits, then hand them all to , and let him co after instead.
I’ll face the danger on your behalf.”
At the sa ti, Bai Yiyi rushed over while carrying the King of Hailan.
Seeing the unconscious King, Lin Xing quickly asked, “Is the King alright?”
Recalling how she had to throw the King to avoid the flood dragon just monts ago, Bai Yiyi said sowhat awkwardly, “He won’t die.
It’s just that both his arms and legs seem to be broken, and a few ribs as well…”
Righteously indignant, Bai Yiyi exclaid, “I was shocked to see him like that.
The Zhou Tian Sect was so brutal in their torture, treating him as if he were less than human.”
