But Xi Heng wasn't that sad. After all, today's farewell is not forever. When I want to meet them again, I can load the game and return to Red Line Sword Academy at any time. It’s just... I need to get to know it again. Xi Heng tightened the bag around his waist and then flew to a city gate near the north. The Tianliang army attacked the city by surrounding it on three sides and leaving one side open. The northern gate was still open, leaving some hope for the people in the city. …… Outside, the atmosphere of the entire city has become a mess. People were fleeing in panic, and almost everyone on the street was running quickly towards the north. Although there was no fire attack, many places were on fire. The hooligans took the opportunity to kill and rob, and there were even warriors among them.
Some of the thugs hired by large and small families were unable to resist, and some of them would even accompany these robbers and rob their heads of the family in turn. Among them was the Tianliang Army's traitor wearing a green scarf, which added fuel to the already chaotic situation in the city. People fled to the north gate, cried and howled when attacked by robbers, and the noise in the whole city became increasingly chaotic, like hell on earth. The few constables and yamen runners patrolling the streets were simply unable to suppress the chaos, and many even followed the civilians in dispersing. Xi Heng left the Hongxian Sword Academy and was spotted by a few short-sighted hooligans while walking on the street. She chopped off two heads with her sword again, and the people around her immediately scattered. Immediately afterwards, Xi Heng stopped walking on the street, but jumped onto the eaves of a high house, and kept jumping up and down on the tiled roofs like a light swallow, which was faster and less congested. There were some warriors around who were also walking on the roof like her, most of them were walking in groups of three or four. As soon as Xi Heng used her Qinggong, she vaguely felt several inexplicable gazes directed at her. Looking back, I saw three figures in black robes approaching from the side. The girl frowned slightly and quickened her steps, trying to leave these people behind. But somehow, those three men seemed to have set their eyes on her and were chasing after her. One of them was obviously more skilled in lightness skills than Xi Heng, and the distance between them did not increase, but instead became closer. "Who is coming?" The girl had no choice but to stop and stand on the edge of a high roof, drawing her sword and looking at him. "The Protector of Huangmei Mountain!" The three men in black robes did not hide their identities at all. They also landed on the roof and kept a distance from Xi Heng. He first clasped his fists casually, then asked, "You look like a local warrior from Jinshi City. We are here to invite all the martial artists to join the Huangmeishan Army!" "What if I don't want to?" Xi Heng didn't have a good impression of Huang Meishan. If there was not enough benefit, she would not join. "If you don't want to, please offer me the martial arts you have learned!" The other party was not surprised at all, and his voice gradually became colder: "We have another purpose for coming here, which is to collect martial arts techniques in Jinshi City!" As expected, these warriors from Huangmei Mountain always have bad intentions.
"I don't have any martial arts skills. You've got the wrong person!" Xi Heng said seriously. "Which of the warriors who have just started to flee the city is not a successor of a martial art? I saw you walked out from the direction of the Red Line Sword Academy, and you are a female warrior. You must have the Red Line Sword Technique!" the black-robed man said in a low voice. Before Xi Heng could respond, another man in black beside him shouted again. This time it was a female voice: "The number of martial artists and descendants of your small sect's swordsmanship is already very small. After the battle of Jinshi City, they may be buried in the dust of history. Why do you still need to hide it?" "The purpose of the martial arts we respect in Huangmei Mountain is 'harmony and coexistence, openness and tolerance'. You come here to ask for the training method not because you covet it, but to incorporate it into the Zhutian Wu Pavilion for martial artists to practice and read, learn from others and be inclusive!" The man advised: "I see that you are young, why do you have to be like those old guys, pedantic and stick to your own little way, and not care about the development of the martial arts." "I said, no." Xi Heng was still lying. The other party didn't believe it: "We in Huangmei Mountain even have dozens of books on Huajin martial arts. Your small sect's swordsmanship has been incorporated into the Zhutian Wu Pavilion, which is also a kind of inheritance. I ask you one last time, will you hand it over or not?!" "Don't you understand what I'm saying?" Xi Heng raised his sword and pretended to fight. "You are stubborn!" The other party pulled out the large scimitar that was shining with cold light from his waist: "Then let's decide the winner first!" "Come!" …… Chapter 30: Blood Shadow is Unkind Dark shadows enveloped the sky, and the dark clouds were like a curtain on a stage slowly pulled up to swallow up the light, covering the earth below with gloom and darkness. The hot and humid wind whistled past, blowing past the people who were constantly on their way in Jinshi City, and Xi Heng who was standing on the pavilion with a sword in his hand. The people in the city were in panic, and the sound of drums and shouts of killing outside the city was earth-shaking. Huge rocks hit the city wall, making a thunderous sound. On the ground, thugs and gangsters rushed out to rob houses and chase after the fleeing civilians to rob and plunder. On the roof, lone warriors like Xi Heng were also being chased by the guardians of Huangmei Mountain. Most people were caught up and either joined in or sacrificed themselves to save themselves. If he had known this would happen, Xi Heng would have changed into simple clothes, hidden his sword, and left disguised as a civilian. In that case, if you encounter a robber on the road, you can use your fists and feet to show your power. Xi Heng sighed. The black-robed woman who wanted her to hand over her martial arts skills walked forward, with a cold glow flashing on the blade in her hand. Xi Heng prepared to meet the enemy, turning his sword and taking a stance. "Watch out!" The enemy ran forward with a knife in both hands and crushed a few gray tiles on the roof. This man was not physically strong, his body was just well-proportioned and solid, but his moves were so powerful and irresistible that it made one feel he was being carried away. The enemy approached closely, his hands grasping the hilt of the knife rising and falling. The sound of the broadsword whistled in his ears. Xi Heng dodged the attack by taking a wrong step, then quickly raised his sword and stabbed it towards the enemy's chest.
The sword blade was like a white snake spitting out its tongue, leaving a white mark in the dark sky. The man in black robe moved and turned, twirling the big knife in both hands and pushing Xi Heng's sword hard. The weapons collided, creating a flash of fire, revealing the faces of both men. Xi Heng's right hand was shaken away by the strong force, and he could no longer resist the opponent's knife swinging towards his waist. She could only step back with her bare feet on the ground. After dodging the attack, another blow came at her. The successive sword techniques were like a rainstorm, forcing her to keep retreating. After just a few seconds, she suddenly missed a step and lost her balance, falling under the roof. The man in black robe let out a low shout and leaned down on his own, gathering his strength and chopping down Xi Heng below with a force as powerful as thunder. Xi Heng held the sword with both hands in front of him to block the attack. The collision of swords and knives produced sparks for a moment, and the clanging sound was so deafening that it made people's ears ring. The girl's palms were trembling, but she relied on her own powerful energy and blood to manage to block this overwhelming move. However, her falling speed increased rapidly due to this blow. In the blink of an eye, Xi Heng turned his head and saw the ground pressing towards him. "call--" She turned sharply in the air, with the blade of her sword pointing towards the yellow earth. The sharp blade pierced into the ground, and the sword body bent under the force. Xi Heng held the sword tightly in both hands, using the sword's toughness to slow down the force of her fall. The girl breathed a sigh of relief as she felt her feet touch the ground again, and used all her strength to pull out the long sword that was stuck in the ground. "Using the sword to dissipate energy is a good trick." The enemy also appeared in front of him, and he did not hesitate to praise him. "..." Xi Heng did not respond. He got into position again and looked seriously at the opponent in front of him. Judging from the force he had just experienced, the opponent's martial arts level should be similar to hers, close to the great perfection of Ming Jin. This person's sword techniques are very powerful, and any martial artist with Ming Jin skills can easily see her moves and changes. But ever since Xi Heng's first sword thrust was blocked, the entire rhythm of the fight was controlled by the opponent. Even though she could see how the enemy would swing his sword next, her posture had been destroyed, and her unbalanced body could not withstand the counterattack, so she could only keep retreating and dodging. Only at this moment did I finally find the opportunity to get ready. "However, I have already suppressed you by myself. If you still want to resist, you will have to face three of us who have reached the peak of Ming Jin." The black-robed woman chuckled and said, "Admit defeat." "Go on." Xi Heng took a deep breath and then spoke calmly. If she hadn't seen that the opponent didn't use any killing moves and didn't have any murderous intent, she could have used the Shocking Bone Transformation to hit the opponent when he fell. If it really comes to a life-and-death duel, she will definitely win. "You won't cry until you see the coffin? Well, then I'll knock you down and search you directly." She swung her hands holding the hilt of the knife like fish swimming in the air, also making a gesture.
Xi Heng immediately stepped forward the moment the opponent was ready. This time she wanted to take the initiative. When she drew her sword, the enemy swung his knife towards her, and the swords collided. Xi Heng mobilized her strength and used her light Kung Fu to move closer and hit the opponent in the chest with her elbow. The woman in black dodged Xi Heng's elbow by moving sideways, and Xi Heng saw the other party's lower body move slightly, so he raised his knee to block the opponent's kick. Stretch your arms upwards, then point the end of the hilt at the opponent's chin and hit him. With one hand blocking the hilt of the thrusting sword, Xi Heng raised his right leg and stepped on the ground to rotate his whole body. He then turned his left hand into a palm to mobilize the blood and energy to slap the enemy's abdomen. There was a snapping sound, and the opponent took several steps back due to the force. Xi Heng took advantage of the enemy's imbalance, pulled the sword back under his shoulder, and suddenly bounced up his knees and waist like a bowstring, stabbing the sword towards the opponent's throat. Clang—— Just as Xi Heng was about to thrust forward, another big knife appeared in front of him. It was the two men in black robes who were watching the fight just now who couldn't help but take action. "Stop fooling around, and end it as soon as possible." The middle-aged man who blocked the sword move said, and turned to Xi Heng with a cold tone and murderous intent: "Your stabbing with the sword is a killing move, right?" "So what?" Xi Heng had already killed quite a few on his way to buy medicine today, and he didn't mind adding a few more. "Are you looking for death? I'll ask you one last time, hand over your skills or not!" The other party clenched his sword. Xi Heng chuckled and said something that was engraved in his heart: "No one has ever bullied my Red Line Sword like this! Draw your sword!" "Okay." The enemy's eyes were fierce, and he swung his sword, causing gusts of strong wind. The folds of Xi Heng's clothes were whistling in the wind, but he was not afraid at all. He took a step forward and slashed again - The broadsword blocked the sword and suddenly rushed forward, which was obviously different from the previous move of the black-robed woman. Xi Heng retreated half a step, while the enemy advanced step by step with a blocking momentum. In just half a second, the opponent was already in front of him, sweeping at him with his sword. The girl snorted coldly when she saw this killing move, and took another step back while suddenly pushing her left hand forward: "Chi!" The back of his hand suddenly glowed red, and three bloody claw marks suddenly appeared. The bloodstain passed through the area where the long sword swept across, directly leaving three cracks on the enemy's chest. The flesh was torn and blood was gushing out. The sudden and severe pain made the swordsman stunned for a moment. "Die!" Xi Heng found this opportunity and thrust the sword in his hand forward with all his strength. The sword left his hand and pierced the black-robed man's forehead with his knuckles like an arrow, penetrating several inches in the moment when the enemy was stunned. Xi Heng stepped forward, grabbed the trembling hilt of the sword and pulled it out, then raised his right leg and kicked the enemy in the abdomen, knocking him down. The sturdy figure fell down, and the black-robed woman who had been fighting with Xi Heng at the beginning was stunned and said, "What kind of move was that..."
Xi Heng did not explain. The Bloodline Sword was a sword of killing. Once you start to attack seriously, you should not stop as long as the enemies around you are still alive. "Fuck!" A blood arrow condensed from the air, drawing a streak of blood and piercing the enemy's chest. The woman in black robes subconsciously blocked the attack, and the place where the blade hit her quickly corroded from bright white to dark black, making a hissing sound. She felt her life was threatened, and immediately came to her senses and shouted to her other companion: "This guy knows witchcraft! Let's go together!"
