Chapter 593 Numerous Masters Emerge
"Tianhong, you hold them off for now, I'll go back and get reinforcements."
Inside the city, Gu Qingyun said shamelessly.
All eight disciples of Beidou Peak and the Law Enforcement Hall have perished, leaving only Gu Qingyun and Du Tianhong.
If they keep running like this, they will eventually be caught, or even killed.
Leaving one person to hold off the enemy while the other goes to fetch reinforcements seems like a good idea.
However, the one left behind would surely die without a burial place, and besides, they had no reinforcements.
Could Ning Yifan and the others from Feihong Peak possibly defeat two experts at the late stage of the Black Lotus Realm?
What a joke! Being able to barely hold my own against one person is already the limit.
Du Tianhong wasn't stupid. He retorted, "Senior brother, I'm still young and have a bright future. Please sacrifice yourself, and I will definitely avenge you."
Faced with life and death, human nature is exposed; no one wants to become cannon fodder.
What's the point of revenge? You can't just watch your enemy die, and besides, they might not even have the ability to take revenge.
As they spoke, the two had already reached the city platform and jumped off without a second thought.
The two experts chasing behind also jumped down, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer.
"Help! Murder!" Gu Qingyun shouted, hoping the authorities would intervene and quell the matter.
At this point, survival is the most important thing. What does saving face matter? Can it feed you?
Little did he know that the prefect of Fengyang Prefecture, following the city lord's orders, would certainly not step forward to help the disciples of Lotus Palace.
Even if they come, they'll just fire a few more sneaky arrows.
At the same time, Ning Yifan and his group arrived outside the city gate and just happened to see Gu Qingyun fleeing in a disheveled state.
"Go help!" Ning Yifan rushed to the front.
Although he usually disapproved of Gu Qingyun's behavior, they were, after all, disciples of the Lotus Palace, and he couldn't just stand by and watch her die.
Moreover, he longs to fight against strong opponents, and perhaps he can improve his strength in actual combat.
Ning Yifan held off one person by himself, while the other four disciples joined forces to hold off another, and immediately launched the most swift attack.
"Wind, Flowers, Snow, and Moon!" Ning Yifan's longsword fell from the sky like snowflakes, obscuring the entire sky above the enemy.
This is a top-tier move from the Black Lotus Realm, capable of killing an ordinary expert.
But he knew things weren't that simple.
If the opponent didn't possess the strength of the Black Lotus Realm, why would they be chasing after Gu Qingyun?
"Finally, a kid with some skill has arrived." The man in black sneered, his long sword piercing the sky like a rainbow.
break!
With a soft shout, Ning Yifan's sword net shattered instantly, and even his sword almost slipped from his hand.
The other four disciples had not yet reached the Black Lotus realm, and in theory, they should have suffered heavy casualties. Jiang Mo secretly blocked most of the attacks, saving them from death.
Even so, the disciples still retreated repeatedly, almost stumbling and falling to the ground.
"Senior Brother Gu, where is the others?" Ning Yifan glanced around and saw that there was no one else besides Gu Qingyun and Du Tianhong.
“They’re all dead, all of them. They killed them. Yifan, you must avenge them!” Gu Qingyun shook her head and sighed.
Among the dead were his disciples; how could he not be heartbroken? He could only blame his own lack of strength.
"Hmph, if you hadn't been so reckless and greedy for credit, things wouldn't have turned out this way," Ning Yifan retorted.
"Now is not the time to shirk responsibility. Let's kill them first." Knowing his sins were grave, Gu Qingyun quickly changed the subject.
Ning Yifan also realized the seriousness of the situation and, having no time to argue with him, asked the man in black, "Who are you? How dare you kill someone from my Lotus Palace?"
"You brat, you're not worthy to know my identity. Don't even mention your Lotus Palace, we're not afraid of even the Crimson Sun Pavilion!" one of them said disdainfully, showing no regard for the Lotus Palace.
"You're spouting nonsense! I'll show you the power of the Lotus Palace!" Ning Yifan made another move, intending to take on one person alone.
Gu Qingyun knew that if they didn't defeat the enemy, they would die, so he joined Du Tianhong and the others from Feihong Peak in a fierce battle with another person.
After a few moves, Ning Yifan was forced to retreat repeatedly. After all, he was a level lower than his enemy, and it was already quite good that he could last for ten moves.
Gu Qingyun was in an even worse situation, being bounced away from all sides even when surrounded.
"Is this the Lotus Sword Technique? It's truly pathetic. Even if you cultivate it to its highest level, it won't be very effective."
The man in black who was fighting against Ning Yifan continued to taunt him.
This statement is not without basis. With a casual swing of his longsword, he could execute a sharp sword move that was even more skillful than the Lotus Sword Technique.
"How is this possible? The Lotus Sword Technique is the most powerful sword technique in the entire Martial Kingdom!" Ning Yifan said, unconvinced.
The Lotus Palace once helped the king conquer the world, and now it can still command respect from all directions.
All credit must be given to the Lotus Sword Technique, which is regarded as the supreme technique by almost all martial arts practitioners.
Internal strength can be lost, but swordsmanship cannot be defeated!
Ning Yifan never imagined that such a thing would happen.
"Wu Kingdom? Kid, are you trying to make me laugh to death? What is Wu Kingdom anyway? And what is Lotus Palace anyway? You're just a frog in a well!" The man in black started his mocking mode, intending to kill Ning Yifan with words.
"Don't speak ill of my Lotus Palace, take this!" Two martial artists from Cold Moon Peak appeared together, their dense sword nets enveloping the man in black.
They were all experts at the mid-stage of the Black Lotus Realm, and with the added advantage of a sneak attack from behind, they were gaining a slight edge.
"Fire Pig, you idiot, you actually let the enemy sneak up on you." Another man in black moved with lightning speed, instantly blocking the two experts from Cold Moon Peak.
"Hehe, I was careless for a moment. Luckily, I had you, you little rat, to help me." The first man in black scratched his head and chuckled, still not taking the people from Lotus Palace seriously.
The addition of Jiang Rong and Han Xiaojing could not fundamentally change the course of the battle.
The two of them can only hold their own against one person at most; sooner or later they will be defeated.
The other disciples cannot guarantee that they will defeat the other one either, so this is still a difficult battle.
"How come another expert at the late stage of the Black Lotus Realm has appeared? This is really bad," Lin Ping said, frowning.
Yesterday he discovered a late-stage Black Lotus Realm expert and a peak expert, and today another one has appeared, making the situation even more dire. Even with Jiang Mo present, victory is not guaranteed.
"Jiang Mo should be at the peak of the Black Lotus Realm, more than capable of dealing with these two," Guo Zhixi analyzed.
"It seems this is the only way. They're locked in combat with the men in black, so we'll rush in and rescue my wife," Lin Ping said after thinking for a moment.
But a problem arose: he couldn't show himself in front of Ning Yifan and the others, yet he had to get Jiang Mo to make a move.
"Give up the resistance. No matter how many ants there are, they are still ants. The people of Chiyang Pavilion obediently kneel down and beg for mercy when they see us, let alone the Lotus Palace."
After a few moves, the man in black regained the upper hand and became arrogant and overconfident.
"Do the people of Chiyang Pavilion have to kneel before you? I didn't know that!" Jiang Mo appeared in front of someone like lightning, his face as cold as ice.
