Liu Xue was covered in blood, her clothes disheveled, revealing a large expanse of skin.
Liu Nan and the others had cruel smiles on their faces; when they saw Qin Chu, Liu Nan's smile grew even wider, but upon seeing Shang Shu Yu, his expression changed.
Qin Chu waved his arm, throwing a robe to Liu Xue, allowing her to cover her exposed body.
"Qin Chu, they aren't human! Three Junior Sisters are dead; they were all defiled and then killed!" Liu Xue's eyes were filled with grief and hatred.
"Sha Han, you've been one of them from the start, haven't you?" Qin Chu looked at Sha Han.
Looking at Qin Chu, Sha Han's face held a cold sneer, "Opposing Prince Qing, you will die a miserable death!"
Qin Chu understood why Sha Han had broken the Alliance between the Green Bamboo Peak and the Thousand Luo Peak Disciples; it was because he was already one of Qian Qing's people.
"Junior Sister Shang Shu, come over! This time, our Main Peak will definitely be the winner!" Liu Nan looked at Shang Shu Yu.
Shang Shu Yu's face was frosty, "Why should I go over? Actually, the rivalry and conflicts between your Peaks are not important to me. If outsiders attack the Green Cloud Sect Disciples, I will act, but now, your lives and deaths don't concern me."
Hearing Shang Shu Yu's words, Qin Chu's heart relaxed a little. Originally, he thought Shang Shu Yu might be part of this conspiracy, and that he and Bai Yu and the others were in great danger. But now it seemed that wasn't the case. Shang Shu Yu disdained to align with Liu Nan and the others, which meant Shang Shu Yu's appearance was accidental.
"Since Junior Sister Shang Shu is unwilling, then so be it. Without Junior Sister Shang Shu, we can still handle them." Liu Nan waved his arm, and the people behind him charged towards Qin Chu and the others.
Clang!
A clear sound rang out as Qin Chu drew his sword. His feet stomped, and he rushed forward a few steps, then his longsword vibrated, sending out several sword lights in all directions.
Dragon Fish Dance! Qin Chu unleashed the group combat ultimate move, Dragon Fish Dance, from the Startling God Sword Art.
Sword light flashed before them, making Liu Nan and the others' expressions change as they quickly drew their swords to block.
With several crisp sounds, Liu Nan and the others were repelled by Qin Chu's sword, but Qin Chu also retreated a few steps. His body strength was great, but the Origin Qi intensity of Liu Nan and the others was not something he could contend with; the Origin Qi erupting from their longswords made it unbearable for him.
At this moment, Bai Yu, Zheng Qiu, Han Yu, and Qiu Zhan made their move, charging at the people behind Liu Nan.
Liu Xue, whose breathing was unstable, also attacked, targeting Sha Han. This time, Sha Han had brought great harm to the Thousand Luo Peak; several of her sisters died with grievances, and even if she died in battle, Liu Xue would avenge them.
The melee began. Qin Chu fought against Liu Nan and another Core Disciple who had damaged his cultivation to drop to the Peak of the Third Stage. The others also fought in pairs. Two people also attacked Bai Yu; mainly, Liu Nan had brought many people, and they knew Bai Yu was the second most important person.
Liu Nan and the others' combat power was indeed formidable. They had damaged their cultivation, dropping from the Fourth Stage to the Peak of the Third Stage, but their combat experience and understanding of combat techniques were at the Fourth Stage level, far superior to Qin Chu and the others.
Before long, Bai Yu was struck by a sword at his waist. He was at the Third Stage of cultivation, but only at the Middle Stage of the Third Stage, quite a difference from the opponent's Peak of the Third Stage cultivation.
With his mind sinking, Qin Chu entered the Sword Spirit Realm. The basic sword techniques, enhanced by the Startling God Sword Art, pressed down on Liu Nan and the other fellow.
Shang Shu Yu, who was observing the battle, showed surprise in her beautiful eyes, because Qin Chu's state had changed. The battle, which had been a stalemate, turned into a suppression. Each strike of his longsword was a must-save attack, targeting the defensive weak points of Liu Nan and the other Core Disciple, forcing them to parry and defend themselves. Although Qin Chu's sword techniques were still basic sword moves, their speed was extremely fast, and each move connected seamlessly and naturally, like flowing clouds and water. Every sword strike had the effect of turning decay into magic.
Sword Spirit Realm! Shang Shu Yu recognized it. She was not an ignorant Green Cloud Sect Disciple; she could comprehend the True Intent of the Sword Dao, and she understood something about the situation and state of the Sword Spirit Realm, so she knew what was happening with Qin Chu now.
After suppressing Liu Nan and his partner, Qin Chu moved sideways, approaching the battle between Bai Yu and his opponent. Then, his longsword vibrated, unleashing the killing move from the Startling God Sword Art, Startling God Transformation.
Clang! With a crisp sound, Qin Chu's longsword, infused with his body's strength, shattered the opponent's block and directly pierced their throat—a one-hit kill!
Qin Chu's longsword, enhanced by the Sword Spirit Realm and accelerated by the Startling God Sword Art, directly killed an opponent.
After killing an opponent, Qin Chu turned back to face the attacks of Liu Nan and his partner.
Then Qin Chu made another surprise attack, eliminating Bai Yu's other opponent.
Qin Chu showed his fangs twice, killing two Disciples from the Main Peak, one of whom was a Core Disciple who had damaged his cultivation to the Peak of the Third Stage.
With two members of the Main Peak faction killed, the situation for the Green Bamboo Peak faction improved, and their numbers became even.
While fending off Liu Nan and another powerful opponent, Qin Chu's eyes scanned around, mainly focusing on Shang Shu Yu, and also on the battle between Liu Xue and Sha Han.
Liu Xue's strength was indeed greater than Sha Han's, but she was injured, with blood constantly flowing from her waist, so she was being suppressed by Sha Han, and her situation was precarious.
Turning to glance at Shang Shu Yu, Qin Chu extended his arm, unleashing the Unbreakable Sword from the Startling God Sword Art. After blocking the attacks of Liu Nan and his partner, he used the recoil force of their Origin Qi to charge towards Sha Han, once again using the Startling God Transformation from the Startling God Sword Art.
Sha Han was indeed cunning. He knew Qin Chu's lethality, so when Qin Chu unleashed his sword move, he began to evade. However, he still underestimated the power of Qin Chu's Startling God Transformation. Qin Chu's longsword did not pierce his throat, but as Qin Chu's direct stab turned into a diagonal slash, Sha Han's sword-wielding right arm was cut off.
However, because of the change in move, Qin Chu's defense was not timely, and he was struck by Liu Nan's sword on his back.
"In battle, if your focus isn't concentrated, it would be strange if you didn't get struck!" Shang Shu Yu said, knowing that Qin Chu was guarding against her and unwilling to get close to her side, which was why his evasion was not timely.
Qin Chu wanted to curse. Try fighting with someone eyeing you menacingly from the side! It's easy for you to say!
Because he was struck on the back, Qin Chu's state declined a bit, and he was suppressed by Liu Nan and his assistant. However, with Bai Yu's support, the situation stabilized.
After calming his Qi and blood, Qin Chu once again unleashed the Startling God Transformation, piercing through the chest of Liu Nan's assistant, but the cost was a sword strike to his abdomen from Liu Nan.
"Bastard, let's see who's more ruthless!" The injured Qin Chu's face was filled with Battle Intent; he utterly disdained Liu Nan and the others.
Liu Nan, alone, was attacked by Qin Chu and Bai Yu together. Even with his rich combat experience and Fourth Stage understanding of combat techniques, he couldn't withstand it. Before long, Qin Chu cut off his right wrist, then kicked him to his knees.
At this moment, Bai Yu and Liu Xue, who had dealt with Sha Han's combat power, began to attack the opponents of Zheng Qiu, Han Yu, and Qiu Zhan.
Qin Chu covered the wound on his abdomen with his left hand, holding his sword in his right, and looked at Shang Shu Yu. He knew whether this battle was truly won still depended on Shang Shu Yu's attitude. If Shang Shu Yu played rough, it was estimated that no one present would survive.
Holding her longsword in her right hand, Shang Shu Yu took two steps, closing the distance to Qin Chu.
