Chapter 2120: Friend Dies, I Live On

I chose to be a beautiful oriole."It's a shame that I've waited here for three whole years. Plenty of adventurers have come by, but they were all trash. They couldn't even get past the seal I set up..."It's not that easy to come and go as you please!"

Zhongli roared again, launching another attack without any hesitation this time.

The ancient sword in his hand, with its intricate patterns of pine knots, suddenly erupted with a power even fiercer than before. It unleashed a dazzling sword glow, six zhang long, illuminating the dark night sky.

Lei Heng didn't back down, casting several spells in succession. Three bolts of lightning, as thick as water buckets, appeared suspended in mid-air.

This time Zhang He also made a move, a white whisk appearing in his palm.

But this thing was obviously no ordinary duster. It was a rare and powerful weapon of the Qimen school. The white strands at the top of the duster danced back and forth under the infusion of true energy, emitting a chilling aura of killing intent.

Meanwhile, Qin Biyao's hand held a ten-zhang red silk, equally imposing.

John gently uttered a word, and the four of them simultaneously launched their attacks.

Zhongli charged forward, his sharp sword energy slashing down towards the two of them.

Lei Heng followed closely behind, three bolts of thunder power crashing down on the two.

"This..."

Although both Ke Zhen and the other person were unwilling, there was no other way. They could only fight to the death now.

Du Ruishan's expression was grave. At this moment, he no longer dared to hold back in the slightest. The golden saber in his hand emitted a dazzling golden light, rippling with golden waves that surged towards Zhong Limi's pine-patterned sword one after another.

Although Zhongli's sword glow was sharp, Du Rushan's blade light came in wave after wave, seeming endless. In the end, it still dissipated that sharp strike.

On the other side, Ke Zhen was also using all his kung fu. His long sword drew circle after circle, and the sharp sword qi encircled Lei Heng's thunderous power, cutting it piece by piece until it finally vanished into nothingness.

Both sides fought back and forth, barely maintaining a balance. But just then, Zhang He and another person beside them joined the fight.

Qin Biyao's ten-zhang red silk, infused with her true qi, instantly straightened like a spear, directly thrusting towards Du Rishan's chest.

Du Ruishan had just taken Zhong Li Mei's sword head-on, and at this moment his true energy was exhausted. Before he could catch his breath, Hong Chou had already arrived before his chest.

Unable to do anything else, he could only muster all his strength and swing the golden sword in his hand.

It's a pity that Qin Biyao's ten-zhang red silk was a soft weapon, unlike a real spear. The golden saber slashed against it and didn't budge it.

Instead, it curved into a simple V shape, the red silk draped over his shoulder.

Although the strength of the ten-zhang red silk had been neutralized by half by the golden knife, this blow still tore through his protective true qi, leaving a blood gash on his shoulder.

On the other side, Ke Zhen drove his sword and clashed with Zhang He's whisk.

He was already weaker than Zhang He, and now that his strength was waning, he was sent flying dozens of meters after being hit hard, a streak of blood appearing at the corner of his mouth.

Du Ruishan and Ke Zhen once again came together, their first encounter resulting in injuries for both.

Although their injuries weren't severe, they clearly saw the gap between themselves and their opponents.

Even in a one-on-one fight, they might not be as strong, but they could still put up a good fight. But now with two against four, they have no hope of winning at all.

"We have to leave, or we'll all die here."

Du Ruhui whispered to Ke Zhen: "If we want to escape from here, the only way is to join forces and take down one of them."

That woman is the weakest of the four. Let's attack her together and create an opening from that side to break through.

Without waiting for a response, he brandished the golden sword in his hand and charged towards Qin Biyao.

Ke Zhen also realized this was the only way to escape. In that instant, his sword transformed into a streak of light and thrust towards Qin Biyao.

Both Du Ruhui and the other person were genuine experts at the Void Core stage. At this moment, they also realized the gravity of the situation.

Without any reservation, he unleashed his full power, and an overwhelming force surged towards Qin Biyao.

Zhang He and the others were taken aback, they didn't expect Du Rishan and company to use this kind of method.

"Shameless scoundrels, to even gang up on a woman!"

Zhongli Mei let out a furious shout, the long sword in his hand once again erupting with a shower of sword light. He moved like a phantom, charging towards Qin Biyao.

On the other side, Lei Heng also reacted immediately to support Qin Biyao. After all, they were both from the three major sects and considered to be of the same lineage.

Zhang He was positioned behind the two of them, and at this moment, he also waved his whisk in his hand and struck from behind.

Ke Zhen's eyes were bloodshot, he knew this was the only chance to escape. Once Zhongli Mai and Lei Heng arrived for support, there would be no chance of escape left.

At this moment, his cultivation had reached its peak. His eyes were fixed on Qin Biyao, the sword in his hand raised high, ready to unleash a devastating blow at any time.

In his view, as long as he teamed up with Du Ruhui, there was still a chance to escape.

He was so focused on Qin Biyao that he didn't notice Du Rushan was half a step behind him. Suddenly, an overwhelming force surged from behind.

This power wasn't sharp, but it was unexpectedly strong, directly pushing him into the encirclement of Qin Biyao, Lei Heng, and Zhong Limi.

"I'm sorry, friend, I can only sacrifice you now!"

Du Ruhui let out a cold, mirthless smile. After speaking, he instantly transformed into a streak of light and shot towards the position where Zhongli Mei had previously defended. He directly dashed through from the other side, disappearing into the darkness in the blink of an eye.

"You old dog!"

At this moment, Ke Zhen was oblivious to the fact that he had been outmaneuvered by Du Rushan. The other party had actually sacrificed himself in exchange for a chance to escape.

There was no way around it, faced with the combined might of the three elders, he didn't even have a chance to complain before their attack arrived.

In his disarray, he couldn't defend himself. The sword in his hand barely blocked Qin Biyao's crimson silk ribbon, and then was struck by Lei Heng's thunderous power, leaving him charred on the outside and raw within. Immediately after, Zhong Li Mei's sword light arrived.

As the Grand Elder of Mount Shenjian, this sword strike was incredibly sharp, instantly splitting Ke Zhen in half. Then, the fierce sword energy pulverized him, leaving not even a trace of his soul.

At this point, Du Ruhui had completely vanished, and Ke Zhen fell to his death on the spot. The night sky returned to its former tranquility.

Lei Heng glared at Du Ruhui's disappearing back, angrily spitting, "Damn it, let that cunning bastard get away!"

"Run then, run!"

Qin Biyao put away the magic weapon in her hand and said, “I just don’t know what these two guys are from, who is going against that little guy, to actually send out two Void Core stage experts at once.”

Zhang He said with a gloomy expression: "Need I say more Throughout the entire Daxing Empire's imperial city, only a handful of people could afford to invite someone at the Void Core stage."

Present here are all experienced individuals. Although their identities haven't been confirmed, one can still guess the general idea.

"Okay, let's go downstairs."

After Zhongli finished speaking, the four of them returned to the courtyard of the station together.

In a bedroom at this moment, Ye Bufan is sitting in front of a cauldron, throwing herbs one by one into the cauldron before him, concentrating on refining pills.

The room was already soundproofed, so he knew nothing of what was happening outside.

And just then, a ghostly black shadow suddenly appeared behind him, it was none other than Guhun.

As the Seven-Star Assassin, Guhun naturally had his own unique methods. He appeared here silently and then, with a black dagger in his hand, plunged it directly into his opponent's back.

At this moment, Ye Bufan seemed to sense the danger as well. He dodged to the side with all his might, but it was still too late. The black dagger pierced his shoulder in an instant, and blood spurted out immediately.

Fortunately, the injury wasn't fatal. He struck back with a palm strike and then turned his head to look.

His body shimmered, like a phantom, evading the strike. The dagger in his hand lunged towards his opponent's chest once more.

This guy's speed was just too fast. Ye Bufan wanted to dodge, but it was too late, so he could only desperately move his chest away from the vital point.

To his surprise, as the Ghost Hand was about to strike, he flipped his wrist, and the dagger did not plunge into his chest.

Instead, it slashed directly across his neck, and instantly a head flew off, blood spraying everywhere.ctful glances in her direction.Although they couldn't fly with swords, their speed was still extremely fast. Even so, it took them half an hour to travel, showing just how vast the territory of Liugua...
