C4418 His Face Was Not on Good Terms with His Heart
“Not good, the formation has been broken. Prepare to face the enemy and fight to the death.”
Qin He’s mouth was covered in blood as he roared.
At practically the exact same moment, Gu Lanyue made her move. The Crimson Sky Sword emitted a clear sword cry, and it transformed into a fiery phoenix that shot out like a mystical phoenix from the nine heavens.
The sword strike caused the temperature to rise abruptly, and even the air began to boil. Space distorted, and a distance of a few hundred zhang passed by in a flash, and it practically didn’t give the Blackheaven Divine Sect Tribulation Transcenders the time to react.
“Not good, what a swift sword.” The Commander-in-Chief was shocked when he saw this, and he hurriedly withdrew his Blood Thorn Magic Treasure to protect himself before resisting the impact of the Crimson Sky Sword’s strike.
It wasn’t just the Commander-in-Chief, the other three commanders reacted almost simultaneously as well.
“They’re charging at me?”
The Second Commander’s expression changed, and he swiftly retreated. He withdrew his saber before him and became incomparably vigilant.
“Retreat.” The Third Commander held a battle-axe in his hand, and he retreated without a word to avoid being the first to be attacked by the Crimson Sky Sword that was approaching menacingly.
The Fourth Commander’s face was ghastly pale, and his gaze was gloomy. He looked left and right and clearly saw the actions of the other three commanders, and he sneered endlessly in his heart.
“A group of idiots that are selfish and don’t dare to receive this sword head-on.”
He didn’t hesitate at all when he saw this, and he swiftly retreated as well to pull away from the Crimson Sky Sword and watch coldly from the side.
Gu Lanyue saw all of this in midair, and she felt that it was hilarious and comical.
“Sect members of the evil sects really have ulterior motives. None of them are good people. They are all selfish people. But this is good as well. They’ve given me a great opportunity to see a sword.”
As soon as the Crimson Nimbus Sword appeared, the sky turned red, as if it was a burning purgatory. The scorching sword intent made people feel extremely tormented.
In a flash, the Crimson Nimbus Sword flashed past and rushed straight at the Great Commander. It came aggressively.
The Great Commander’s face sank. He retreated a large distance and didn’t dare to face the Crimson Nimbus Sword head-on. He started to curse.
“They really came to find me. Gu Lanyue, you can try my power as well.”
The blood thorn in his hand lit up with a monstrous murderous aura. It was a bloody scene. He condensed his palm energy and pushed forward. The blood thorn flew out quickly and collided fiercely with the Crimson Nimbus Sword.
Bang!
A loud sound rang out. The scorching sword intent suppressed the stench. A large blast of airwaves burst out. The blood thorn flew back and landed in the Great Commander’s hand. It still had some strength left.
After this clash, the Great Commander’s blood thorn treasure actually didn’t suffer any damage at all. This made his confidence increase greatly.
“Haha, the Profound Heaven Spirit Treasure is nothing. It can’t break my blood thorn.”
The Great Commander laughed arrogantly.
However, before he finished speaking, Gu Lanyue only sneered. She turned her right finger. “Kill.”
The Crimson Nimbus Sword that collided with the blood thorn not only didn’t show any signs of weakening, but it even changed directions. It suddenly accelerated and slashed at the ordinary Tribulation Transcendent Immortal on the side.
“Ah~”
“No.”
In an instant, two shrill cries sounded out. Two ordinary Tribulation Transcenders of the Divine Sect were pierced through by a sword, and they were transformed into ash, dying miserably on the spot.
When the black-clothed Tribulation Transcender in the lead saw this, he was terrified to the point his entire body was covered in cold sweat. His body trembled, and he turned around to dodge.
The might of the Sword Immortal Gu Lan Yue shocked the entire scene. She instantly killed two Tribulation Transcenders with a single sword strike, and her ferocious might surged into the heavens. The Blackheaven Divine Sect’s side was completely stunned, and they were speechless for a long time, and they were filled with disbelief and rage.
“Collect.”
Gu Lan Yue formed a sword seal, and the Crimson Sky Sword flew back, and it even carried the storage rings of the two dead Tribulation Transcenders, and she obtained a great harvest.
Her expression was solemn, yet she didn’t relax in the slightest.
That sword strike from before was the result of her exerting her full strength, and coupled with the fact that she’d accumulated her strength for a long time, it was able to produce such an effect. Once the other party was on guard, it would be impossible for her to strike again.
“Good, such a swift sword strike.” Gu Li was greatly excited.
“Sis, when did you become so formidable? The flying sword is too domineering.” Gu Feng was greatly encouraged.
“The Blackheaven Divine Sect is nothing more than this. Miss Yue killed two people with a single sword strike, formidable. Today, it will absolutely not be the day of our deaths.”
Qin He was incomparably excited, and he roared.
“Right, with Miss Yue here, so long as we continue to hold on, victory is right before our eyes.” Xu Dande’s face was filled with excitement as well.
For a time, the morale of the Cloud Shattering Peak’s Tribulation Transcenders was greatly boosted, and their confidence was doubled.
On the contrary, the Blackheaven Divine Sect’s side seemed to be gloomy and miserable, and it was covered in dense dark clouds. They even started to criticize each other.
“This… How could it be like this? Two people were killed in a single encounter?”
The lead Tribulation Transcender froze on the spot, and his heart was shaken.
“What a terrifying sword cultivator, especially the sword in her hand. You must be careful and not follow in the footsteps of the two people from before.”
“Even though two people have died, we still have the advantage in number. Don’t be afraid, we’ll attack together and surely annihilate them.”
“Why hasn’t the four commanders made a move? This Gu Lan Yue possesses monstrous might, and all of us are no match for her. Especially the Crimson Firmament Sword in her hand, it’s a Mysterious Heaven Spirit Treasure, and it’s difficult to defend against it.”
The expressions of the Blackheaven Cult’s Tribulation Transcenders were worried and uneasy, and they looked towards the four commanders one after another.
“Tch, useless things. You can’t even defend against a single sword strike, yet you were instantly killed. Truly trash.”
The Grand Commander was swearing and complaining, and he was extremely displeased and extremely disheveled.
Earlier, his Blood Thorn had collided with the Crimson Firmament Sword, and it was merely Gu Lan Yue’s trick. The target she really wanted to kill was the Tribulation Transcender behind the Grand Commander, and she even succeeded in killing the two with a single strike.
Originally, the Grand Commander had a chance to destroy Gu Lan Yue’s moves, but because he was afraid, he retreated.
Because of this, two Tribulation Transcenders from the Blackheaven Cult were instantly killed, and their morale plummeted greatly.
When the Second Commander heard this, he sneered and said, “Grand Commander, if you didn’t avoid the Crimson Firmament Sword and intentionally held back, how could you have been instantly killed by this sword cultivator?”
His tone was extremely unfriendly, and he seemed to be asking for an explanation.
The Third Commander’s expression was gloomy as water, and he questioned, “That’s right, Commander. Why didn’t you block the other party’s sword strike? Hmph! Are you afraid?”
After being berated, the Commander’s expression turned pale, and he was extremely unsightly. However, he still continued to defend himself. “I already made a move and weakened the might of Gu Lanyue’s sword strike. It was those two people who were too useless, and they were unable to block a single sword strike. That’s why they died. They can’t blame me for this.”
This black pot wasn’t small, so he naturally wanted to take the blame.
“Hmph! Commander’s words aren’t pleasant to hear.” The Second Commander spoke aggressively.
For a time, the atmosphere in the surroundings was slightly strange and oppressive, and it actually froze.
“Is this an internal strife?” Gu Feng remained composed as he looked at this scene and spoke coldly.2
Gu Lanyue shook her head and said, “It seems like it. These Blackheaven God Cult’s evil cultivators have their own ulterior motives, and they’re on guard against each other. They’re unable to utilize their strengths, and this is a great opportunity for us.”
“Hehe, watch me later. My Shadow Pursuing Saber really wants to kill someone.”
Gu Feng spoke with a grim voice, and he licked his slightly dry lips. Earlier, Gu Lanyue’s instant kill of two Tribulation Transcenders had caused her to become the center of attention, and he was extremely envious in his heart.
