Chapter 598 The Village Chief's Invitation

    

Mo Caiwei gritted her teeth, facing away from me and confronting the tumbling wooden table, her right hand lowered.

Mo Caiwei wanted to save someone, and also to kill!

The moment the long table collided with her would be when she launched her flying knife. Either Jiu Ci or Yu He would surely die by her blade.

In the instant the air in the room seemed frozen by killing intent, I gently pressed on Mo Caiwei's shoulder.

Amidst Mo Caiwei's shock, I had already exchanged positions with her, striking out at the tumbling long table.

In the instant the invisible qi劲 (internal force) surged towards the bottom of the table, the hidden weapons embedded in the table were all blasted away by my inner force, covering the entire shop like a rainstorm.

The two people opposite me hadn't expected me to suddenly counterattack. By the time they reacted, it was too late. With the hidden weapons upon them, they had no choice but to defend. The long table in the air, however, was split in two by my zhenqi (true energy) for the second time, flying to both sides.

Behind the splitting table, I also drew my sabers and launched my attack. One black and one white blade light connected in the air, looking from afar like a demon spreading its wings, the fluttering saber shadows forming wings that pounced on two lambs waiting to be slaughtered.

The saber wings swept across the sky, seemingly only one strike, but in reality, it was a hundred strikes linked together. As long as the opponent collided with me, the continuous saber light would relentlessly strike at the opponent, never stopping until they were torn to pieces.

"Retreat!" Jiu Ci screamed in alarm, retreating violently, but her speed was far inferior to the wildly dancing sabers.

In just a breath, the cold light had already reflected in the opponent's terrified eyes.

Just as Jiu Ci was about to be splattered with blood, two figures simultaneously appeared outside the door, their weapons wrapped in thick inner force,迎 (facing) the blade with extreme speed.

The four weapons collided frantically within the limited space, the roar of metal clashing reverberating through the long street, and the wildly dancing qi勁 (energy) burst out from the doors and windows in all directions.

I shouted sternly, "Mo Caiwei, get out!"

After Mo Caiwei and the others flew out of the shop, my fight with the two people reached its peak. The violently surging zhenqi (true energy) snapped the shop's main beam and blew off the roof, surging out.

As the broken beams and tiles fell from the sky, the rolling zhenqi (true energy) collapsed the outer walls of the shop. Amidst the rubble rolled along the street by the dust and smoke, my opponent and I simultaneously stopped our movements, standing among the ruined walls and broken tiles.

The smoke and dust in the air slowly dissipated, and three figures simultaneously appeared in the center of the street.

My twin sabers pointed diagonally at the ground, but my body was spotless—although I had exchanged blows with my opponents for a long time, I still had the spare strength to block the dust when I stopped, so how could I let myself be covered in dirt.

In contrast, the two old men opposite me were not only covered in dust from head to toe, but also had seven or eight cuts on their clothes.

As the two men's eyes looked at me, a sneer appeared on the corner of my mouth: "Explode!"

As soon as the word "explode" came out, the cuts on the two old men's bodies simultaneously burst open, and several streams of blood spurted out.

The two people collapsed on the ground without even uttering a sound.

"Village elder!" Jiu Ci staggered back several steps in shock, but I pointed my saber into the distance: "Do those three over there also want to come out and try?"

A white-haired old man was the first to walk into the long street, followed by two people dressed in blue, who looked to be in their fifties, and whose cultivation was probably around the Xiantian (pre-heaven) realm.

Of the three people, the only one I couldn't understand was that old man.

"Grandpa..."

"Village Chief!"

Jiu Ci and Yu He simultaneously ran towards the old man, who said amiably, "Stand aside, we'll talk later."

"Village Chief!" Mo Caiwei also walked over, first bowed to the old man, and then called out to the person on the old man's left: "Shifu (master)!"

The latter nodded slightly and secretly gave Mo Caiwei a look, seemingly reminding her not to speak carelessly.

The old man cupped his fist at me: "Young friend, what a fine skill. To be able to reach the Tuifan (mortal shedding) realm at such a young age, I wonder who your teacher is?"

Although the old man's words "Tuifan (mortal shedding) expert" were not loud, they were like a ghost crying and howling in the silence. The villagers who were still gathering from the nearby streets were shocked by these words, their eyes wide open, and some even subconsciously took a few steps back.

Yu He covered her mouth with her hand, unable to say a word for a long time.

Jiu Ci, however, muttered to herself: "So it's the Tuifan (mortal shedding) realm, no wonder the poison was ineffective against him."

I said indifferently: "Friend, I'm not here to ask you for help, nor am I here to try to establish a relationship with you. There's no point in stating my background! If you want to exchange blows, we don't need to go through this formality."

The Village Chief's expression immediately darkened: "Who can tell me what's going on?"

Yu He hurriedly said: "It was Mo Caiwei who brought the village's enemy in, we were trying to..."

The Village Chief said coldly: "I didn't ask you! Jiu Ci, you tell me!"

Yu He retreated to the side, embarrassed. Only then did Jiu Ci say: "Grandpa, this matter can't be discussed here."

The Village Chief stared at the other party for a moment, then cupped his fist at me: "Young friend, could you please move to the council hall, and we can talk slowly?"

I sneered: "What's the point of going there? To interrogate me? Or to prepare to kill me!"

As I spoke, killing intent arose in my eyes!
