Chapter 1237: Chapter 1237: Return the Favor When You Get the Chance
"Courting death."
Seeing Xiao Yi advancing with his sword, the three individuals instantly unleashed their Primordial Power.
"Great Wilderness Hidden Palm." They bellowed together.
A vast aura emanated from their palms.
Within that vastness, there was also a faint domineering presence to the extreme.
With his sword, Xiao Yi approached, "Blood Realm Slash."
Dozens of blood-colored Sword Qi flashed through.
Boom...
The three struck out with their palms, actually blocking the blood-colored Sword Qi.
The blood-colored Sword Qi was extremely sharp, as if it could cut through boundaries.
Yet within their palms, that vast aura seemed to contain a domineering fierce beast, ancient and ferocious.
With an explosive sound, the dozens of blood-colored Sword Qi directly disintegrated in their palms.
However, Xiao Yi’s attack did not stop.
After one sword strike, his figure continued to leap forward swiftly.
Just as the blood-colored Sword Qi disintegrated, his cold and arrogant figure, carrying a towering Sword Intent, cleaved down.
"Blood Storm Slash."
Heavenly blood color covered the sword body; the astonishing Sword Intent contained within the Sword Edge.
With one slash, the momentum in their palms instantly dissipated.
With one strike to the body, the three’s expressions changed drastically.
"Puh." Three mouths spurted out blood simultaneously.
The three were blasted back tens of meters, blood gushing from their mouths.
The blood within their bodies seemed to go berserk, continually overflowing.
Even the Emperor-level Three Thunder Tiger, such a powerful demon beast, couldn’t withstand Xiao Yi’s Blood Storm Slash.
Let alone these mere three at the Fourth Layer of Saint Emperor Realm?
Swish... Xiao Yi’s figure flashed again, like a startling arc of light.
After one sword strike that sent them flying, he advanced with his sword again.
Having decided on a quick battle, he wouldn’t hold back in the slightest.
"Blood Storm Slash." Xiao Yi bellowed loudly.
This strike was enough to end the battle.
Already severely injured internally, continuously unleashing the power of the Blood Pill, allowing Blood Qi to run rampant within his body.
Xiao Yi couldn’t hold on much longer; this strike was both his last and his strongest.
"No good." The three, who had been blasted away, disregarded the rampaging blood inside them and the blood overflowing from their mouths, their faces already changed drastically.
In the distance, an elder saw this, his expression turning cold.
"Courting death." The elder shouted, his withered hand pressing heavily downward.
Instantly, a vast momentum pressed downwards.
Xiao Yi’s advancing figure was instantly confined.
"You..." Xiao Yi’s figure halted, forcibly restrained, and his internal injuries reignited, causing him to spit out a mouthful of blood.
"Beiyin Sect Sixth Elder." Xiao Yi glanced coldly at the elder, his expression extremely unpleasant.
In his perception, this person’s aura was even above Qin Zhen’s.
It was only natural for him to be confined with just one palm.
"Quickly kill that brat." The elder shouted coldly.
"Yes, Sixth Elder." The three responded and immediately took action.
"Great Wilderness Hidden Palm." Once again, the momentum in their palms was astounding.
The combined three palms, if enhanced with Beiyin Essence Power and struck precisely, might directly take Xiao Yi’s life.
"Damn it." Xiao Yi gritted his teeth, his face extremely grim.
An expert of the Beiyin Sect Elder’s level was not something he could handle now.
The late stage of the Saint Emperor Realm was far beyond his strength.
Watching the three approach, a ruthless glint flashed in Xiao Yi’s eyes.
Currently immobilized and severely injured, if these three at the Fourth Layer of Saint Emperor Realm hit him with full power, he would undoubtedly die.
"I’ll fight to the end." Xiao Yi whispered fiercely in his heart.
A thread of Primordial Power within him connected to the Blood Pill.
Just about to unleash it recklessly...
Suddenly, a brilliant blue light flashed by.
"Break."
A crisp, low voice echoed.
The overwhelming momentum originally pressing on Xiao Yi vanished instantly.
Swish... Swish... Swish...
Three gentle streams of light shot out.
When the streams of light faded, the three Beiyin Sect Martial Artists had turned into three lifeless corpses, falling powerlessly to the ground.
"Retreat." Another light voice commanded.
A slender, fair hand reached out and pulled Xiao Yi’s arm.
Before Xiao Yi could react, he found himself outside the battle range.
"Huh?" Xiao Yi was shocked and glanced to his side.
A woman dressed in brilliant blue stood by his side.
The woman was very beautiful, her delicate face complemented by the brilliant blue attire, appearing dreamlike and ethereal.
Her waist-length smooth hair cascaded gracefully.
The woman sat down slowly, her expression as calm as water.
Only then did Xiao Yi realize he was at the far end of the spectator’s seat.
"May I ask who you are, miss?" Xiao Yi frowned.
Being able to easily break the Beiyin Sect Sixth Elder’s suppression and instantly kill someone at the Fourth Layer of Saint Emperor Realm...
This woman was definitely not ordinary.
The woman smiled faintly, "Shouldn’t you introduce yourself before asking someone’s name?"
Xiao Yi frowned, "I’m Xiao Yi..."
Before he could finish, the woman interrupted, "I know you, Xiao Yi, Vice Hall Master of Asura Hall, Chief Steward of Wind Shattering Hall."
"Oh no, you’re about to be promoted to Vice Hall Master of the Main Hall."
"And also, you’re a disciple of Black Cloud Academy."
The woman sat casually at the end of the spectator’s seat, her posture graceful and exquisite.
While speaking, she didn’t look at Xiao Yi, but at the chaotic battle before them.
"Remember, a few days ago, the evil cultivator incident left the entire Four-direction Domain in panic."
"Even in Four-direction City, every major power was on edge, leading to the Eight Palaces joining forces."
"The evil cultivator incident just passed a few days ago."
"With external threats gone, internal conflicts continue incessantly."
The woman spoke slowly, shaking her head, "This is the inherent flaw of humans."
Xiao Yi narrowed his eyes.
"Who exactly are you, miss?" Xiao Yi asked with a frown.
The woman smiled faintly, "Do you know if the evil cultivator threat isn’t eliminated, once that Blood-sucking Pearl absorbs enough Qi-Blood..."
"Then, that evil cultivator will be unstoppable throughout the Four-direction Domain."
"The entire Four-direction Domain will be a river of blood."
"You eliminated the evil cultivator threat, yet the Qin Family wants to kill you."
"All for the sake of their own family’s growth and even dominating the Four-direction Domain."
The woman shook her head again, her expression remaining serene as water.
Then, she turned to look at Xiao Yi.
"Originally, in my eyes, the vast Black Cloud Academy was a group of useless people, except for Mo Youu."
"Now, there’s you, Xiao Yi, as well."
"Miss, you’re exaggerating." Xiao Yi’s expression returned to indifference.
"Heh." The woman chuckled playfully, "So this time, I’ve saved your life, and this is how you treat your benefactor?"
Xiao Yi frowned.
The woman smiled gently, "If you want to know who I am, work hard in your cultivation; perhaps we’ll have the chance to cross paths someday."
"As for the favor this time, find an opportunity to repay me next time."
With that, the woman transformed into a brilliant blue light and disappeared from sight.
"Miss..." Xiao Yi furrowed his brow and shook his head.
Just as he was contemplating, a startled cry echoed from afar.
"Hmm?" Xiao Yi’s eyes turned cold.
In the distance, within the chaotic battleground, a blood-colored sharp sword cut through wildly, taking lives with ease.
...
Second Chapter.
