Teng Zijing looked up and saw the death of the Sword Sect leader, his expression turning somber. He had gathered three top cultivators for an ambush, thinking success was certain, but still underestimated Xing Feng.
He knew very well that despite the three powerful cultivators surrounding him, one was killed, and Xing Feng was not heavily wounded. The other two wouldn't last long either.
On this battlefield, Lu You's combat strength was also terrifying, and they couldn't stop him. Most of the time, he was on the defensive, making a single mistake a death sentence.
As for today's target, Li Fan, the old man of the Sixth Realm Dao Body was killed by a single sword strike. It seems even a mid-stage Dao Body cultivation wouldn't easily take him down unless a late-stage Dao Body cultivator could find an opportunity.
"Prepare to retreat." Teng Zijing communicated with his confidant while fighting, then deliberately clashed with Lu You, his body being thrown away. Lu You turned to attack other directions, while Teng Zijing took advantage of this strike to continuously retreat.
Everyone still fighting noticed something amiss and looked towards Teng Zijing—why was he still retreating?
Just as they realized, Teng Zijing suddenly turned back, shouting, "Everyone, I am injured and can't fight any longer; retreat now. If things don't succeed, retreat separately. Li Mountain cultivators have slaughtered in Liuyue City, the court will surely destroy Li Mountain."
Saying this, he turned to flee, and as he retreated, a masked figure in the high sky turned into light, retreating several miles instantly, taking Teng Zijing with him.
"Bastard..." A furious shout rang out, Yue Qingcang yelled angrily, as Xing Feng punched forward, shattering all defenses before him.
Fear appeared in Yue Qingcang's eyes, while Xing Feng's gaze was icy, looking at him like a dead man. He didn't chase the masked figure; the opponent's speed was too fast, and their cultivation stronger than Yue Qingcang and Wang Zheng. He couldn't capture the opponent, but Yue Qingcang couldn't escape.
"Teng Zijing." Anger filled the voices from Liuyue Manor and Xuanjian Sect, feeling betrayed.
Watching cultivators from afar were speechless at this dramatic scene; Teng Zijing abandoned everyone, fleeing alone; this City Lord is indeed...
Single-handedly, he dug a pit for the two top forces of Liuyue City.
"Peak Master Xing Feng, I was also deceived by Teng Zijing, please spare me." Yue Qingcang tried to remain calm. He had only dared to gamble upon seeing three Seventh Realm cultivators, but now...
"Are you joking with me?"
Xing Feng sneered, the Demon Ape roared, with tyrannical punches shattering the sky, causing the defensive stone monument before Yue Qingcang to explode frantically.
"Boom!"
A loud sound echoed, Yue Qingcang groaned, his face pale, saying: "Could you spare the others? They were just following orders."
"Everyone must pay for their actions." Xing Feng stepped forward.
Sparing them?
Li Mountain has been slaying demons for the world for a thousand years, yet these people use Li Mountain as a stepping stone, like Ruyu said, the world has become corrupt. Would they spare them if they were defeated? Probably they'd eat them alive to trade for rewards and wealth.
Liuyue Manor cultivators looked up at the sky, feeling somewhat hopeless.
"Retreat." Yue Qingcang shouted towards the lower ground, prompting Liuyue Manor people to retreat in various directions.
"Stay here." Lu You coldly ordered, the Sword Domain enveloped an infinite space, the Sword Aura shedding blood constantly.
Li Fan matched with high speed, his sword crazily harvesting.
A lightning bolt flashed, the sword following, slicing someone's throat. The lightning did not dissipate, transforming into an electric chain. Li Fan's body seemed to merge with it, instantly appearing elsewhere.
The sounds of slashing continued, and people kept perishing under sword strikes. While killing, Lu You glanced at Li Fan: "This is..."
"Gained insight from Master Uncle's sword." Li Fan's voice echoed, stunning Lu You; no wonder it felt familiar.
His sword was hidden in the wind, and now Li Fan used the Wind and Thunder Dao to transform into the Destruction Sword Domain, with the sword hidden in wind and thunder, able to keep up with movement techniques — the hardest part.
Moreover, every one of his sword strikes was strong.
"Have you named the sword?" Lu You spoke while disappearing; his voice coming from the void, body and sword appearing elsewhere, taking a life.
"Will Master Uncle name it?" Li Fan asked.
"You have the must-kill sword named Soul-chasing, then let this sword be Thunder-chasing, how about it?" Lu You replied.
"Good, thank you, Master Uncle." Li Fan smiled.
"Face death." A voice came from the sky, and everyone looked up, seeing Xing Feng standing above the sky, holding a corpse in his hand—it was Yue Qingcang of Liuyue Manor, another Seventh Realm Great Cultivator slain.
Today, three Seventh Realm cultivators joined forces against Xing Feng; two died, and adding Medicine Cleansing Lake Ancestor, Liuyue City's three top experts were all gone, killed by one person.
Meanwhile, the people below continued fleeing in different directions. Xing Feng grabbed from afar, and without top experts to constrain him, one hand covered the sky, a massive hand seal capturing a Sixth Realm Dao Body cultivator alive. He struggled, "Spare me, Senior, we were just following orders."
Xing Feng glanced down, squeezing his hand from afar, with a sound, the man couldn't even scream before being crushed to death.
This scene deepened everyone's despair; there was no escape.
Xing Feng's eyes were sharp, as he looked down, with barriers appearing between heaven and earth, sealing off all escape routes. He stepped down, slapping those fleeing, each palm strike taking one life.
Miserable cries echoed, turning the leading figures of two top forces into trapped beasts, filled with despair and regret.
Before long, Liuyue Manor and Xuanjian Sect cultivators were exterminated, none surviving.
The ground ruins were full of bodies, those who once ruled Liuyue City. This inevitably made many sigh, their hearts unsettled for a long time.
"Everyone in Liuyue City witnessed today's events. Now that these people are dead, I won't pursue Liuyue Manor and Xuanjian Sect further, but if similar things happen again, Li Mountain's sword won't show mercy." Xing Feng's voice resounded through heaven and earth.
This battle served as a warning.
In the future, the court will surely try to besiege Li Mountain cultivators, and he must prevent the court from using the power of Da Li's sects and aristocratic families; otherwise, Li Mountain will face greater trouble. In the Great Li World, besides the court, there are many large sects and great families not under the court's jurisdiction.
"Let's go to the City Lord Mansion." Xing Feng said, stepping ahead, with Lu You and others following him.
After them, the crowd hadn't recovered yet.
Li Mountain, Martial Intent Peak Master Xing Feng.
Li Mountain, Qingfeng Swordsman Lu You.
Li Mountain, Li Fan.
The once vague impression of Li Mountain in their minds was becoming clearer—they slew demons and humans.
The City Lord Mansion might also collapse.
However, Teng Zijing left first, likely taking key people away.
Above Liuyue City, people were traveling through the sky.
"Senior Brother, that masked figure seemed odd, do you know its details?" Lu You caught up with Xing Feng and asked.
"Demon cultivator." Xing Feng responded, "Mid-Seventh Realm Demon King."
"Demon King." Lu You's expression hardened, saying, "It seems the court still walks closely with demons."
"The chaos of those years; behind it may be dirtier than we imagine." Xing Feng replied, Lu You nodded slightly, Li Fan listened quietly.
The mid-Seventh Realm Demon King existence could indeed contend with and retreat from Xing Feng Master Uncle. Master Xing wasn't adept at speed, hard to intercept such a level of existence.
Soon, a grand architectural formation appeared in view, but the cultivators there were frantically retreating; Teng Zijing escaped hurriedly, evidently unable to take many away, probably taking only important figures.
"Pretty fast at running." Lu You said.
"Teng Zijing made a major mistake this time; not only failing to capture us but also leading to the downfall of two top forces of Liuyue City, fleeing alone at the end; the court won't spare him." Xing Feng said coldly, his figure reaching above the City Lord Mansion, stepping down, causing the sky and earth to shatter, flattening the buildings instantly.
"Let's go." Xing Feng returned to the original place, without much interest; the mastermind fled, leaving these lower-level people, no point in killing them.
