The Venerable Swordsman

Chapter 130 A Bloody Battle!

Just as Ye Xuan and the other five people rushed toward the men in black, dozens of silver bolts shot right at them!

These bolts were Spiritual Weapons!

Those soldiers were so extravagant!

Ye Xuan stopped abruptly and roared, “Everyone, behind me!”

Without the slightest hesitation, the five persons stood in a row and hid behind Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan stomped his right foot heavily.

“Boom!”

In an instant, the earth trembled fiercely, and immediately, Earth Power gathered around Ye Xuan’s body.

Earth Armor!

Ye Xuan held the Lingxiu Sword for a while, and waves of Sword Light went out from the sword. Though those waves of Sword Light blocked most of the bolts, there were still some bolts that were able to force their way through the Sword Light and hit Ye Xuan’s body!

The Earth Armor on his body abruptly blocked these bolts for him, but it was still very painful!

When the men in black were about to send their second round of bolts, Ye Xuan suddenly stomped his right foot heavily on the ground. Then, his whole person shot toward the group of people in black like an arrow from a bowstring.

“Kill them!”

The five people also rushed out after Ye Xuan!

The Lingxiu Sword flew out from Ye Xuan’s hands to cut even before Ye Xuan had arrived. This sword strike from him contained sword momentum, battle intent, and sword will!

Most important of all, there was Earth Power!

The speed and power of this sword strike were utterly beyond the ability of a person in the Secluding Realm!

“Sizzle!”

It penetrated the abdomen of the man in black who was leading them!

At this time, a giant sword suddenly appeared in Ye Xuan’s hands!

The Big Black Sword!

Holding the Big Black Sword in his hands, Ye Xuan leaped forward and came right in front of a man in black. Then he domineeringly brought down his sword! The power of this sword strike was so horrible that it seemed to be able to smash the ground. Its manner was incomparably overbearing!

The pupils of the man in black shrank. He dropped his crossbow immediately and pulled out a black saber to strike against Ye Xuan’s Big Black Sword!

“Pow!”

The moment the saber and the sword touched, the saber of the man in black instantly burst apart. In the meantime, Ye Xuan’s sword directly cut the entire body of the man in black to pieces!

Ye Xuan cut a person to pieces with one sword strike!

With Earth Power, Ye Xuan improved his strength more than a bit! Previously, he could kill a person in the Secluding Realm quickly, but his current enemies were experts in the Secluding Realm. Moreover, to end the battle as soon as possible, Ye Xuan dared not hide his strength so that he used Earth Power from the very start!

After he slashed the man in black, he violently swept sideways with his sword.

A beam of powerful golden Sword Light blasted out like a wave.

“Boom!”

Meters away, the Sword Light pushed a man in black into the air in an instant!

Almost at the same time, the Lingxiu Sword passed through the glabella of a man in black...

They had to kill all the men in black in minutes!

Ye Xuan disappeared from where he was standing once more. In the field, beams of sword light flickered on and off. At the same time, more and more blood dropped onto the ground...

It was worth mentioning that the five people who had come with Ye Xuan were also extremely strong. Each of them could fight against several men in black and had advantages over them. Especially Ling Han who held the long spear—the number of enemies he had killed was second only to the number of men Ye Xuan had slaughtered!

In the field, there were fewer and fewer men in black!

However, behind Ye Xuan and the others, the battle was still extremely fierce!

Seven people fought against hundreds of Black Saber Guards!

Fortunately, they were in the jungle so that these Black Saber Guards could not make a formation. Otherwise, Lu Banzhuang and the others would not be able to stop them! Even so, Lu Banzhuang and the others were in an awful situation!

At the moment, even the powerful Lu Banzhuang was hurt!

Time ticked by. Soon, fifteen minutes passed!

On the other side, the battle continued.

Ye Xuan violently threw his Big Black Sword forward.

Dozens of meters away.

“Boom!”

The Big Black Sword crushed a man in black to pieces in an instant! With the fall of this one, all the men in black were now dead!

However, Ye Xuan and others were all seriously injured. Fortunately, no one died!

Ye Xuan quickly collected the crossbows and quivers of the men in black, then he turned around and ran toward the nearby battle. “Let’s go support them!”

The five people behind Ye Xuan quickly rushed over with him.

Soon, Ye Xuan and the others arrived at the battlefield where Lu Banzhuang and the others were. Without any ado, Ye Xuan threw the Big Black Sword in his hand right at a Black Saber Guard near him!

“Boom!”

His sword directly pounded the Black Saber Guard into paste!

“Retreat!”

Just then, a shout of anger suddenly came from the bunch of Black Saber Guards not far away.

In a short while, the Black Saber Guards had retreated like waves!

Ye Xuan and the others did not chase after them because they were not in good condition anymore.

Soon, the bunch of Black Saber Guards exited the jungle and came to a clearing!

Beside the leading masked man, a Black Saber Guard said in a deep voice, “Commander Dao, those people are seriously injured. We have a great chance to kill them!”

The masked man shook his head. “The space inside the jungle is too small. It is not a suitable place for us to fight. Even if we can kill them in the end, with the fighting capacity of those ten or so people, I am afraid that we will be annihilated as well!”

With this, he glanced at the jungle. “They cannot go further inside because there is a swamp. Let’s encircle this place and wait for reinforcements!”

Beside the masked man, a knife guard said in a deep voice, “Commander Dao, these 13 people are geniuses and marvels. Ordinary people are no match for them.”

The masked man said with a cold smile, “Rest assured, as long as Ye Xuan is here, many people will be willing to come here to kill him. Give out my order. Keep up your spirits and do not let them escape from us.”

“Yes!”

The Black Saber Guards answered in unison.

Ye Xuan and the others were still in the jungle.

They were sitting in front of a water pool. At this moment, their blood had dyed half of the pool red!

Almost all of them bore wounds from the previous battle!

The most seriously injured person was a man named Shang Yue, whose entire right foot had been cut off!

Ye Xuan went up to Shang Yue and took out an Incised-wound Pill. He was handing it to Shang Yue, but Shang Yue shook his head. “No need to waste the pill!”

Ye Xuan forced the Incised-wound Pill into Shang Yue’s mouth. Shang Yue looked at Ye Xuan but said nothing.

Ye Xuan glanced at everyone. Although he could see them through his eyes, he could feel their feelings with his heart. At this moment, everyone was exhausted because the previous battle had consumed too much of their energy!

They were injured and exhausted, in a dire situation!

The atmosphere in the field was a little dignified!

Ye Xuan suddenly smiled and asked, “Are you afraid?”

All of them cast their eyes on him. Ye Xuan shook his head while smiling. “There is no turning back for us. The worst outcome is that we will die, but it is no big deal. What do you think?”

Upon hearing his words, everyone laughed!

“He is right. If the worst comes, we will die. But there is no worse ending than that!”

Ye Xuan said with a severe look, “I assume the people outside are waiting for help. They are waiting for reinforcements. But we don’t know who will come here to support them. Just now, our men have checked the road ahead of us. Not far from here is an endless swamp. It is even more unrealistic for us to cross the swamp. The only thing we can do now is to fight our way out and break through the tight encirclement. Of course, it is not an easy thing because hundreds of our enemies are well-trained elites. All of us are seriously injured now, but we have no other choice.”

Everyone became silent.

Ye Xuan faced Lu Banzhuang. “Do you have any other ideas?”

Lu Banzhuang shook her head. “We cannot fight our way out! Those people are soldiers who will fight till death, so they will never retreat. All of us are seriously injured right now. If we force our way out, aside from one or two persons, everyone will die!”

With this, she glanced at Ye Xuan. “Do you understand what I mean?”

Ye Xuan was silent.

Of course, he could understand what she meant, but he ignored something in her words. Now, he could still fight, and so could Lu Banzhuang, plus both of them were the best. Thus, it would not be difficult for the two of them to get out!

But what about Ling Han and the others?

Although Ling Han and the others were also very powerful, they had only 50% to 60% strength left at most after going through the bloody battle earlier. Moreover, the soldiers outside were so brave and tough that they knew no fear of death. Let alone Ling Han and others, even Lu Banzhuang and Ye Xuan would be in danger if they tried to force their way out!

But if they didn’t give it a shot, they would still die when the reinforcements from Tang Country arrived!

Their situation was terrible!

It was at this point that an old man suddenly appeared not far away. Subconsciously, Lu Banzhuang was ready to fight him, but Ye Xuan stopped her.

He was quite familiar with the clothes that the black-robed old man wore—it was the Drunken Fairy Building’s clothes!

The old man walked over to Ye Xuan and slightly saluted. “Childe Ye!”

Ye Xuan asked, “What’s up?”

The old man replied in a deep voice. “I have received the order from the Fifth Floorlord and came here especially to help you!”

“The Fifth Floorlord!”

Ye Xuan was startled a little, and soon he remembered.

“The Ninth Floorlord of the Drunken Fairy Building in Jiang Country must have been promoted to be the Fifth Floorlord!”

Ye Xuan asked in a deep voice, “How can you help?”

The old man answered. “One hundred fifty kilometers away from here, there is a city named Guinan City. Childe Ye, you must bring your men to the Drunken Fairy Building in this city because now, the armies from Tang Country have surrounded you on all sides. You cannot escape any other way.”

Ye Xuan said, “Go on!”

The old man glanced outside of the bamboo forest and said, “Later, people from Drunken Fairy Building will launch an attack. At that time, please rush out in the confusion and run straight toward Guinan City. We have arranged some people in the city to meet you!”

Ye Xuan nodded. “That’s great!”

The old man glanced at Ye Xuan and the others. “Everyone, are we going to start now?”

Ye Xuan turned to Lu Banzhuang who had remained silent for a while and then nodded. “Let’s go!”

After saying that, she glanced at Shang Yue nearby who had lost a leg. Shang Yue grinned. “Just go! I cannot go with you!”

Lu Banzhuang looked at Ye Li, who was next to her. “Take care of him later!”

Ye Li nodded. “Yes!”

Lu Banzhuang looked at Ye Xuan, while Ye Xuan turned to the old man who then nodded. Just then, relentless sounds of struggle came from outside the forest!

Ye Xuan said, “Let’s go!”

They jumped directly onto the black wolves, and the next moment, 13 people were rushing out of the forest.

When they were out of the jungle, they saw dozens of black-robed men fighting with the Black Saber Guards, among whom were twenty more experts in the God-allied Realm!

Ye Xuan took the lead. The Lingxiu Sword shuttled continually before him. Each time it shuttled, it would bring columns of blood into the air.

The masked man not far away suddenly roared angrily. “Stop them!”

In a short while, most of the Black Saber Guards had hurried to surround Ye Xuan and the others. Soon, however, experts in the God-allied Realm from Drunken Fairy Building stopped them.

Ye Xuan and the others directly broke through the encirclement of the bunch of Black Saber Guards. However, the faces of Ye Xuan and the others became solemn all of a sudden.

About 300 meters in front of Ye Xuan and the others stood a man with Lower Moon Falchion in his hand. The man looked quite young, only in his twenties. His long hair hung down loosely before his chest, and on his face was a touch of a cruel smile.

Behind the man, there were more than twenty people, all of whom were armed with long falchions and iron-armors.

The man suddenly bellowed in anger. “Kill them!”

As his voice died down, he rushed straight toward Ye Xuan and the others. He dragged his long falchion, which scraped the ground, and the sparks flew in all directions. The ground cracked inch by inch. Meanwhile, his aura rose sharply at a crazy speed...

This man had reached the God-allied Realm!

Moreover, he was a Cutter Master!
