This sword, just like a streak of light, as fast as a strike of lightning!
This sword did not aim for Chu Mo's throat, head, or heart - those fatal places, but towards Chu Mo's elixir field!
In the blink of an eye, Chu Mo figured out their intention - they wanted to cripple him, then force him to hand over the inheritance of the Piaomiao Palace!
Chu Mo immediately activated his Phantom Wind Steps, miraculously dodging the elder's strike and in turn, swung his sword!
Soul Seizure!
A dazzling brilliance suddenly lit up the room.
The elder's slash missed; an unexpected look flashed across his face, but Chu Mo's ensuing slash shocked him even more.
How could a teenager in his teens swing such an astonishing strike?
In an instant, it seemed the elder realized the cause of Elder Lu's death!
This youth... was not as easy to deal with as he had assumed!
This thought quickly flashed through his mind.
Seeing the dazzling glow of that strike, the elder couldn't help but... slightly lose his focus.
In duels between masters, even a tenth of a breath's time could decide a lot!
Chu Mo's sword, with its incredible speed and angle, had already arrived before the elder.
This slash was indeed too fast, too stunning!
If there were no one to save him now, the elder would undoubtedly die!
Several other people from the Heavenly Sword Sect acted almost simultaneously. Some attacked Chu Mo, while others protected the elder...
Clang clang... the sound of weapons being cut off resonated.
Boom!
This room couldn't withstand such robust energy fluctuations and collapsed instantly!
With a loud rumble.
Chu Mo's body was blasted backward by the combined forces of several people from the Heavenly Sword Sect.
A mouthful of fresh blood spurted out from Chu Mo's mouth.
Chu Mo's body spiral flipped across the air several times. He was unable to fully control it, smashing hard into the courtyard wall outside, reducing the sturdy wall to rubble.
Eventually, Chu Mo fiercely thrust the Heaven Slaying into the ground, preventing his body from crashing into the collapsed wall.
Chu Mo could clearly sense that his internal organs seemed as if they had been shattered. This intense pain gave him a feeling of being better off dead.
But Chu Mo didn't scream out. He took a deep breath, took out an elixir and swallowed it.
Only now did Xiao Yiyue and the others snap back to their senses. They rushed out from the debris and came to Chu Mo's side, watching him with concern.
The six people on the Heavenly Sword Sect's side first looked at their broken weapons in shock, then turned their icy eyes slowly towards Chu Mo.
Meng Yilan and Wu Yiju didn't come over. They stayed where they were. Meng Yilan was clueless, while Wu Yiju's attention was solely on her son, comforting the child who was slightly frightened.
The elder, a high-ranking power in the Understanding Heart Realm, still had lingering fear and surprise on his face.
That instant had truly shocked him. He thought he was doomed!
If it weren't for the others acting together, he had no doubt that he would have ended up like Elder Lu - beheaded!
"What a vicious little beast..." The elder looked at Chu Mo with fear, his teeth clenched.
"So it's alright for you to kill me, but not for me to fight back? What kind of logic is that?" Chu Mo tried to use Heaven Slaying as a crutch to stand up, but he was trembling all over. Drops of sweat were rolling off his forehead, and the intense pain from his body made it impossible for him to move.
Chu Mo thought to himself: Could it be... I have to use the trump card that the teacher left for me now?
I can't accept this!
At the same time, there was also a sense of helpless sadness in Chu Mo's heart.
I'm still far too weak!
Your enemies won't give you the time to truly grow.
These words rang in Chu Mo's mind. Even though he understood this principle, when the moment truly arrived, the helplessness and anger radiating from his heart was still intense.
Xiao Yiyue and the other seven women didn't speak much. They exchanged glances and surrounded Chu Mo to protect him, their eyes shining with resolve.
"Relying on women for protection?" One of the men at the side of the Heavenly Sword Sect's Master sneered.
"At least we're better than you. A bunch of renowned elders attacking a young junior together, have you no shame?" Zhao Xiaoxiao retorted brashly.
These words reddened the faces of the few men on the Heavenly Sword Sect's side, they were somewhat humiliated and furious.
Because she wasn't wrong, just now in their eagerness, they indeed all attacked Chu Mo. They hadn't thought much about it at the time as they were trying to save their own people. Now having been directly called out, they felt humiliated.
"Young lady, move away quickly and stop trying to gain some personal advantage. This man… today, he will surely die!" The master of the Heavenly Sword Sect declared.
"Esteemed friends of the Heavenly Sword Sect," an old voice echoed, "is it too much to be so blatant in your murder and looting in Yanhuang City?" Concurrent with the voice, a figure descended from the sky, landing in front of Xiao Yiyue and others, confronting the men from the Heavenly Sword Sect.
"Mr. Tantai…" Xiao Yiyue recognized this man, it was the Deputy Dean of the Piaomiao Palace's Royal Academy, arguably 'one of their own'.
"Tantai? It's been many years, you still have the same charm." The master of the Heavenly Sword Sect saw the old man and was startled. Afterwards, he gave a faint smile, his face not showing much concern.
"Tantai, this matter has nothing to do with you. It's best that you don't intervene," warned the elder who had attacked Chu Mo, glaring at Mr. Tantai. His tone was very assertive.
Mr. Tantai sighed softly, "Young Master Chu has done me a great favor. In life, revenge is necessary when wronged, and… gratitude should also be expressed when indebted. I would ask for your consideration, fellow elders, to let today's matter be left as such for now."
"Hahaha… Tantai, do you think, you really have the qualifications to mediate this matter?" sneered the elder who had attacked Chu Mo, "He killed Elder Lu… and that's it? What do you take our Heavenly Sword Sect as?"
"Your Elder Lu was the first to attack!" Xiao Yiyue retorted sharply.
"That's right, we all saw it was him who attacked first!" Guo Yixiao chimed in.
Zhao Xiaoxiao jeered, "Some of you could die of old age at any moment, don't you feel embarrassed saying these shameless things?"
Faced with the ridicule of these young girls, the several men from Heavenly Sword Sect all looked displeased.
The elder who had targeted Chu Mo issued another warning, "Tantai… You're unqualified to intervene in this matter. It would be best if you disappear from our sight immediately!"
Just then, another figure descended from the sky, landing next to Mr. Tantai. It was Mr. Weichi from the Prince's Mansion.
Mr. Weichi turned to the men and said softly, "This place… is not the Heavenly Sword Sect. This is Great Xia's imperial city! If you want to let loose, you should recognize the place!"
"Who are you to talk?" The elder who had attacked Chu Mo, glared at Mr. Weichi with disdain. An elder who just stepped into the Understanding Heart Realm, daring to command here?
"What if… I join in as well?" A chilling voice rang out, followed by the appearance of a ball of fire in everyone's sight.
A powerful and overwhelming pressure spread out, directly pressing onto the men of the Heavenly Sword Sect!
The men instinctively lifted their heads but were immediately struck with shock.
The master of the Heavenly Sword Sect exclaimed, "This isn't possible!"
------------
I ran to the hospital again today, even I'm amazed... No major problems, but a pile of minor ones.
After some treatment, I don't know how my body is doing. The medical indicators... I can't get a reading because my blood work doesn't meet the standards.
But my spirits are a bit better, after all, one must live well if they aren't dying, right?
I open the book page, and watch the monthly tickets slide from 70 back to 80, which makes me anxious.
