Chapter 5316: Vulnerable
The Blood-Armored Monk stepped forward, runes flickering on his blood-red armor. “Li Chunfeng, it’s been years since we last met, and you’re still as irritable as ever. Today’s matter has nothing to do with you. Get out of here!”
“You, a lackey of the Temple, dare to order me around?” Li Chunfeng snorted coldly, his sword energy surging.
The Blood-Armored Monk was undaunted, allowing the sword energy to slash through his armor, leaving only a faint white mark. “Your sword is still very soft.”
Li Chunfeng’s expression changed slightly. The opponent’s defense was simply astonishing.
Wuxie floated to the front of the formation, with black air swirling around him: “City Lord Li, he who knows the latest developments is a hero. David and my Evil Dao Hall are mortal enemies, and he must die today!”
“And me!” You Yue shouted, “I will gouge out his eyes with my own hands!”
Nan Batian walked out while carrying Xiao Cui, laughing: “You bunch of ugly people, how dare you shout in front of me?
Your grandfather? Do you believe my Information Building will dig out all your secrets?” Xiao Cui stepped forward, holding a piece of jade in her hand: “The six halls of the Temple are secretly colluding with the Demonic Path, the branch hall of the Evil Dao Hall has taken the souls of innocent monks, and Master Qin… Tsk tsk, I have many stories about your son bullying men and women.”
Qin Lie’s face paled: “Don’t talk nonsense!”
“Whether it’s nonsense or not, we’ll know after it’s announced.” Xiao Cui said lightly, “As long as you withdraw your troops, what happened today will be written off.”
The blood-armored monk sneered, “Information Hall? They’re just rats who can only spread rumors. If you dare say anything more, you’ll be killed without mercy!”
“Then give it a try!”
The cultivators behind Nan Batian simultaneously released their auras. Although few in number, each possessed a dense aura, clearly an elite warrior.
Tensions are flaring between the two sides, battle is imminent.
Just then, David’s voice echoed from the courtyard: “Enough nonsense!”
He slowly appeared, followed by Mo Chen, Hu Mazi, Ling Xue, and all the Sword Sect disciples.
Even though there were only a few dozen of them, each of them held their heads high, fearless.
“Qin Lie, don’t you just want to kill me?”
David looked her in the eye. “I will fight you, life or death, at my own risk. Do you dare?”
Qin Lie was stunned, then burst out laughing. “What are you talking about? You, a Loose Immortal Realm cultivator, dare to challenge me, an Eighth Rank Earth Immortal Realm cultivator?”
“Why don’t you dare?”
David gripped the Dragon Slayer Sword tightly. “If I lose, I’ll do whatever I want. If you lose, take your troops and leave the Sacred Sword City and never do it again!”
“David! No!” Mo Chen exclaimed.
“Mr. Chen, think again!” Li Chunfeng hurriedly intervened.
David waved his hand, his gaze sharp. “This is a feud between me and him, and it’s time to settle it.”
A malicious glint flashed across Qin Lie’s eyes, as if he wanted David dead. “Okay! I promise! But if anyone dares to interfere, don’t blame me for being rude!”
Qin Lie slowly approached David, his spiritual energy flowing rapidly, blasting deep holes in the ground.
“Boy, it is your honor to die by my sword.” Qin Lie swung his sword, and a wave of energy tore a deep chasm between them.
David took a deep breath, channeling the power of the three clans within him simultaneously, a tricolored current flowing through his meridians.
He knew this battle would not only depend on his own life, but also the survival of the entire Sword Sect.
“Stop talking nonsense, and attack!”
Qin Lie’s eyes flashed with killing intent. Without hesitation, he struck out with his sword, cleaving through the mountain and rocks. Even before the sword reached him, a wave of energy surged from the ground.
“Just in time!” David shouted, and the Dragon Slayer Sword turned into a golden light.
“Klang!”
A deafening sound of clashing metal rang out, and the ground beneath their feet cracked simultaneously, sending debris flying.
David felt a surge of power, his arm instantly going numb. He took three steps back before regaining his balance, a trickle of blood trickling from the corner of his mouth.
“As I thought, you’re vulnerable!” Qin Lie sneered, pressing forward. His long sword rained down like a violent storm, intersecting with sword energy, blocking all of David’s escape routes.
