Chapter 896: Chapter 896: Wielding a Broadsword Before Guan Yu
Liu Zixuan stood with his sword, and previously, he had already angered the disciples by teasing the little demoness Xiaoxiao. Now, his arrogant words had thoroughly enraged the crowd of disciples.
One of the tall and strong disciples stepped out, pointing at Liu Zixuan and cursing, "Today we will let you know that people can pay a heavy price for their arrogance!"
"Brothers, let’s attack together!"
"Alright!"
The group nodded in unison, drawing their swords and pointing them at Liu Zixuan.
Seeing this, Liu Zixuan grinned, "Afraid to duel alone, yet you find a crappy excuse for a group attack!"
"Go!" With a command from the strong disciple, the other disciples attacked Liu Zixuan from all directions.
The reason they attacked together was because they knew that Liu Zixuan was someone who could defeat Gu Huaqiu. If they attacked one by one, they would surely lose, but attacking together, they felt much more confident.
In the group assault, even if they couldn’t kill Liu Zixuan, they would make him fall under the swords of the masses.
Moreover, they all knew that their goddess Xiaoxiao was nearby, and defeating Liu Zixuan in front of her would bring them endless pleasure, showing Xiaoxiao just how worthless Liu Zixuan was.
There were four or fifty disciples attacking simultaneously, with dozens of swords coming at Liu Zixuan from all sides, resembling a meteor shower, their sharp edges shining brightly, each Sword Intent containing boundless coldness!
As they fought, Xiaoxiao, watching from a distance with a satisfied expression, pouted and murmured, "Hmph, today, this scoundrel can learn a lesson!"
"Why do you think he would be defeated?"
Old Qing’s voice slowly came from behind Xiaoxiao, as he sipped Peach Blossom Brew now and then, watching the battle with a leisurely look.
Xiaoxiao snapped, "With so many disciples against him, how could they possibly lose? Grandpa Qing, those disciples all grew up under your watch, don’t you know them?"
"How about a bet?" Old Qing said with a meaningful smile.
"A bet?" Xiaoxiao’s interest piqued instantly, and she quickly asked, "What’s the bet?"
"If Liu Zixuan wins, you must unconditionally agree to one of my requests," Old Qing said.
Without thinking, Xiaoxiao agreed directly, "And if I win?"
"I will agree to any one of your requests!"
"Alright, if I win, you must give me ten jars of Peach Blossom Brew!" Xiaoxiao said confidently.
Old Qing squinted slightly, "You cheeky girl, always thinking about my good wine. Alright, I agree!"
Seeing Old Qing agree, Xiaoxiao immediately jumped up happily, mysteriously saying, "Grandpa Qing, you better get that Peach Blossom Brew ready because those disciples are the elites of the Profound Sword Sect, defeating a newcomer like Liu Zixuan is too easy, so you are bound to lose this bet!"
Old Qing took a sip of Peach Blossom Brew, shook his head slightly, and looked towards the battle.
Seeing Old Qing’s confident demeanor, Xiaoxiao snorted and shouted to the disciples, "Whoever defeats Liu Zixuan, I will cook my best dish for them!"
Upon hearing Xiaoxiao’s words, the disciples became even more spirited, their determination evident in their eyes, attacking Liu Zixuan with increased ferocity!
Like beasts that hadn’t eaten for ten days, they charged at Liu Zixuan with their swords.
Catching a sidelong glance at Xiaoxiao, Liu Zixuan’s mouth curved slightly upward, "Defeat me? They aren’t capable!"
"Liu Zixuan, don’t be arrogant, face our brothers’ Cloud-Piercing Sword Array!"
With a loud shout from a disciple, dozens of disciples began to move rapidly, forming a Sword Array in just moments.
Liu Zixuan’s eyes emitted a sharp gleam, "Then let me see how strong the Profound Sword Sect’s Sword Array really is!"
As he spoke, the swords in the disciples’ hands suddenly left their grip, controlled by their Inner Strength, spinning rapidly in mid-air.
Dozens of swords flew in the air, what a spectacular scene that was.
More surprisingly, moments later, as the swords flew, they began to form quickly, gradually becoming a gigantic sword, standing loftily, formed by dozens of swords, with a momentum as if it would pierce the clouds above!
"Such a petty trick!"
Liu Zixuan muttered; playing arrays before him, an Array Master, was like showing off a knife in front of Guan Yu.
He suddenly thrust the Nameless Sword into the ground in front of him.
Then, sealing with both hands, he controlled two stones on the ground, lifting them into the air.
Right foot forward, left foot slightly raised, and at the moment the stones stopped spinning in the air, his left foot suddenly stomped forcefully onto the ground.
"Rise for me!"
With a loud shout from Liu Zixuan, the two stones, infused with Qi, charged at the giant sword.
"Liu Zixuan, you are truly arrogant to the point of ignorance, thinking you can break our Cloud-Piercing Sword Array with just two stones?"
"I see it as your final futile struggle!"
At this spectacle, the nearby disciples began to laugh.
But their laughter abruptly ceased halfway, for they clearly saw that when the two stones collided with the giant sword, the Sword Array, which had been condensed, was easily shattered.
Dozens of flying swords instantly burst apart, losing control and teetering precariously!
"This...how is this possible!"
"He’s just a newcomer, how could he instantly break our Sword Array!"
The disciples were stunned!
Liu Zixuan was indeed new, but his mastery in arrays was far beyond these people, as for Sword Dao matters.
He had been sparring every midnight with an expert recently; others would see it as suffering, but he had learned every Sword Technique from that expert!
Thus, with his profound understanding of arrays and Sword Dao of the Profound Sword Sect, dealing with these people was too easy!
Seeing the disciples slightly stunned, Liu Zixuan laughed boldly, "You attacked first, now it’s my turn!"
"Quickly control your swords, change the formation!" exclaimed one of the men hurriedly.
"It’s too late!"
With a shout from Liu Zixuan, the swords, which were about to return to the disciples’ hands, suddenly changed direction, gathering towards Liu Zixuan, forming a whirlwind of swords.
Watching the disciples’ expressions change drastically, Liu Zixuan’s mouth curved into that familiar confident smile, lightly saying, "Now, let me show you my Sword Array!"
