The people of Jianghu chased after fame and some people even valued their reputation more than their lives. Even though the imposing man managed to escape with his life after being left behind by Wang Yan, he did not feel the slightest bit of fear. Instead, he was enraged and wanted to wash away the humiliation even if he had to risk his life!
In such a situation, Wang Yan knew that he and the imposing man would not rest until one of them was dead. Therefore, he did not wait for the imposing man to land on the roof and slashed down with his sword!
"Bang!"
The tall and sturdy man let out a light shout. One section of the three-sectioned staff in his hand was broken, and the remaining two sections were held in his hand. The other section splashed out like a gust of wind, dancing above his head in an airtight manner. Only a 'ding ding' sound could be heard as Wang Yan's sword failed to land. Surprisingly, this person also knew how to use leaping techniques. His two legs continuously leaped into the air and leaped onto the roof. Without waiting for Wang Yan to change his attack, he quickly leaped forward, brandishing his nunchaku to open a path as he charged towards Wang Yan.
Seeing this, Wang Yan's eyes narrowed. He knew that the imposing man was going to fight with his life on the line. He was trying to find a chance to win in this dangerous situation. Moreover, the man's Hard Body Technique was not weak. Wang Yan felt that he did not have the slightest advantage in close combat. How could he let the man get close to him so easily? Wang Yan quickly tapped his feet and wanted to retreat. However, he did not expect that he would hear the sound of something piercing through the air. The jade-faced man attacked again and three Bone Piercing Nails pierced through the air.
"Brother, your swordsmanship is superb. I would like to learn a thing or two from you.
Please excuse me. "The jade-faced man spoke politely, but before he finished speaking, he leaped two to three meters high. His feet tapped the edge of the wall and he flipped onto the roof in a few steps. He stood not far behind Wang Yan. Although this man did not know the Vertical Lifting Technique, his Qinggong was not bad.
If it was not for the imposing man, Wang Yan would not let this man easily get onto the roof and hide behind him like a poisonous snake. However, the imposing man was ruthless. He did not hesitate to use his internal energy to activate the nunchaku and used it as a barrier to chase after Wang Yan. Wang Yan did not have any time to breathe, so how could he have time to care about the jade-faced man?
When he saw that the two of them were about to launch a pincer attack, a stern glint flashed across Wang Yan's eyes. His feet suddenly stopped as he forcefully stomped on the ground, shattering the tiles beneath his feet as he fell towards the interior of the house!
This change was too sudden, and the tall and sturdy man could not react in time. By the time he was alerted, a sword light had already swept towards his legs. Seeing that the tall and sturdy man was about to be hit, he did not expect that a few cold lights would pierce through the air. Immediately after, a few clanging sounds could be heard, and a few bone-piercing nails hit the body of the long sword. The long sword trembled and was no longer as fierce as before, but even so, the tip of the sword still slashed across the right ankle of the tall and sturdy man, bringing out a drop of blood.
The imposing man cried out in pain, and then the anger in his eyes burned even more. He lifted his left foot and was about to use his strength to break the tiles to chase after Wang Yan. He said hatefully, "I will …"
However, before the imposing man's foot landed, his heart suddenly beat wildly. His eyes showed a very shocked expression, and he could not help but stop talking. The reason why this person's expression changed so much in an instant was probably because he felt a strong sword intent rising in the house. It was extremely sharp. He immediately understood that Wang Yan, who had landed in the house first, was going to use his strongest sword. With such a sword intent, the imposing man felt that it would be difficult for him to withstand this sword, and if he could not withstand such a sword, it was very likely that he would lose his life.
Feeling this, the expression of the tall and sturdy man fluctuated indeterminately. Not far away, the jade-faced man did not understand. He attacked repeatedly because he wanted to borrow the hands of the tall and sturdy man to deal with a strong enemy. Seeing that the siege was completed, he did not expect the situation to suddenly change. He really did not understand what had happened in between.
The jade-faced man could not help but step closer to the hole where Wang Yan had fallen. But at this moment, the anger in the imposing man's eyes disappeared, followed by a loud shout.
"I am Yan Sheng from Tai'an Sect. Today, I admit that I am no match for you. I will remember the humiliation of this sword in my heart. However, the mountains are high and the rivers are long. When we meet again in Jianghu, I will definitely take your life!"
Before his voice died away, the imposing man tapped his foot and leaped into the air. Then, he stepped on the air and flew out of Huamei Garden. In just a few leaps, he had disappeared without a trace.
The jade-faced man had never imagined that the imposing man, Yan Sheng, who had sworn to kill Wang Yan just a moment ago, would suddenly leave. Moreover, he had left in such a straightforward manner. He did not understand what had happened, but in the next instant, his expression changed, and he took a step forward, intending to retreat.
Bang!
With a loud explosion, the place where the jade-faced man stood suddenly exploded. As the tiles flew in all directions, seven or eight sword shadows soared into the sky. Among these chaotic sword shadows, a sharp sword intent firmly locked onto the jade-faced man. At this moment, this guy finally knew why the imposing man had left.
Thud thud!
Seeing that it was too late to fly away, the jade-faced man's face was full of resentment. The moment the tiles under his feet exploded, he tapped lightly on the ground and leaped into the air. However, the sword shadow was too fast. It was like a shadow following the body. In the blink of an eye, it had wrapped around his body. Wang Yan's figure followed closely behind and shot straight up from the hole that had exploded.
Facing such a sword, the jade-faced man knew that he could not avoid it, but he still struggled. He lifted his feet and shot out several bone-piercing nails towards the scattered sword shadows with his left hand. With a swoosh, the folding fan in his right hand opened and waved downwards. Immediately, more than ten thin needles shot out.
The jade-faced man's attack was like a torrential storm of pear flowers. However, as the sword shadows changed, clanging sounds rang out continuously. In just a breath's time, the hidden weapons that the jade-faced man shot out were all knocked away, and the sword shadows attacked the jade-faced man's body without any delay.
Seeing that the jade-faced man was about to die from this sword attack, a sudden shout came from afar.
"Stop!"
As the voice rang out, a figure shot out from the two-story building opposite. As he stepped through the air, he covered a distance of tens of meters. Just by looking at his Qinggong, one could tell that this person was not a Meridian Opening Stage martial artist. However, Wang Yan turned a deaf ear to the warning. His long sword shook, and before the sword shadow disappeared, a cold light shot out from it. The jade-faced man had not clearly seen where the sword was when he felt a chill in his throat. Immediately after, Wang Yan, who had flown up, stomped on the man's body twice and rolled towards the roof.
The jade-faced man's eyes widened, and his hands covered his throat. Blood continuously seeped out through the gaps between his fingers.
"So … fast …"
The jade-faced man's eyes were filled with disbelief. As his lips moved, his body fell straight down. After smashing through the tiles on the roof, he fell into the side room and disappeared.
Seeing this scene, the person immediately said in a cold voice, "I said stop!"
Before his voice died away, he took two steps and his whole body shot through the air. In the blink of an eye, he flew to the side of Wang Yan. Without waiting for Wang Yan to land on the roof, the person spun in the air, and his right leg swept towards Wang Yan's head with the power to split the air.
Without thinking, Wang Yan twisted his wrist, and the sword shadow scattered in all directions. Among them, there was a cold light that went straight for the person's knee.
However, this person's cultivation level was much higher than Wang Yan's. His kick was extremely fast, and before Wang Yan's sword could be unleashed, the tip of his foot abruptly advanced an inch, and actually tapped on the cold light. The sword shadow immediately scattered, and the body of the longsword trembled violently. This person did not show any mercy. He withdrew one leg, and the other swept towards Wang Yan's ribs.
However, at this moment, the sound of a saber came from not far away. Then, a flash of saber light shot up from behind the person, and slashed towards his back at an extremely fast speed.
Xia He!
It was Xia He who arrived at this critical moment. Without saying anything, he unsheathed his saber to help Wang Yan. The person was shocked, as if he was very surprised that Xia He would make a move. However, under the attack from the front and the back, he did not dare to be careless. Changing the direction of his leg, he took a step in the air, and his whole body flipped to a nearby place. However, just as he flipped, Wang Yan's long sword shook again, and the sword pierced towards his face like a meteor!
"How dare you?!"
That person let out an explosive roar. His face was filled with anger. Although he was standing in mid-air, he raised his hands and brought them together in front of his face in an attempt to clamp the blade of the sword. However, just as his palms were about to come together, the tip of the sword suddenly disappeared!
This person did not expect Wang Yan's swordsmanship to have such a strange change. However, he was after all not a martial artist of the Soothing Pulse Stage. He quickly tapped his legs twice, and his whole body seemed to be walking upside down between heaven and earth. In an instant, he leaped a few meters away, and then with a flip, he landed firmly on the roof. However, just as he stood still, a few strands of black hair fell from his left eye. Immediately, there was a "chi" sound, and three inches below his left eye, there was a cut no longer than the length of a fingernail, and dark red blood immediately seeped out.
"Junior, you have gone too far!"
This person did not expect that he would be injured. Although the injury was not serious, how could the dignity of a master of the Nurturing Embryo Stage be provoked so easily?
However, in the face of the anger of a master of the Nurturing Embryo Stage, Wang Yan said coldly, "In the fight of Jianghu, since you have made a move, of course, you have to be prepared to be injured or even killed. If you do not even understand this, no matter how high your cultivation is, you are just a waste!"
"You are courting death!"
Hearing Wang Yan's words, this person immediately roared, and was about to make a move with rage. However, Xia He steadily landed next to Wang Yan, and held his long saber horizontally. It was obvious that he was ready to join hands with Wang Yan to fight against the enemy.
This person obviously knew Xia He. Seeing this, he said coldly, "Xia He, what is the meaning of this?"
