From the moment Night Spirit attacked to the two exchanges with Liang Dan, to the moment Su Zimo closed in and released killing moves consecutively to kill Liang Dan, the entire process seemed slow on the surface but in reality, it only took two breaths of time.
Suddenly, the courtyard fell silent.
Meng Han's eyes widened in disbelief as he looked at Liang Dan who was on the ground.
Perfected Jin Dan had died in the hands of a Foundation Establishment Cultivator!
Everything happened too quickly.
It was so quick that Meng Han could not accept it.
What Meng Han could not understand was why his flying sword did not pierce Su Zimo's palm.
His flying sword had clearly pierced Su Zimo's flesh – why was it suddenly stuck and the sound of metal clashing could be heard?
If not for that, Liang Dan would not have died!
That was the truth as well.
Although Su Zimo was both an immortal and demonic cultivator and Night Spirit had sharp claws, in terms of true strength, he was still unable to take on Perfected Jin Dan head-on.
In a different environment and situation, be it Su Zimo or Night Spirit, they could only flee in a one-on-one fight.
However, there were way too many factors that could affect the outcome of a fight between cultivators.
Night Spirit played a huge role in killing Perfected Jin Dan.
If it had not destroyed Liang Dan's protection talisman and attracted most of his attention, Su Zimo would not have had the chance to get close.
Of course, Liang Dan's greatest mistake was to underestimate Su Zimo's courage and determination!
He was not the only one – Meng Han had not expected that Su Zimo would dare to take the initiative to attack against the assassination of two Perfected Jin Dan!
In just two breaths of time, the situation had undergone an earth-shattering change.
Liang Dan was dead.
Meng Han was the only one left.
Most importantly, he only had three breaths of time left.
Unknowingly, a young girl around 17 or 18 years old walked out from another room. She wore an elegant long dress and was extremely beautiful with her yellow, curly hair that was let down.
A flying sword hovered in front of Nien Qi and buzzed with a bright spirit light.
There were actually four spirit patterns flickering on it!
A supreme-grade flying sword!
Meng Han took a look, and his mouth twitched. His eyeballs nearly popped out of their sockets.
As a Daoist Master Jin Dan, he had lived for over four hundred years and was about to die, but he had never used a supreme-grade flying sword in his entire life.
This girl was only in the early stage of Foundation Establishment, and she was just a little maid. How could she have a supreme-grade flying sword?
Suddenly, Meng Han recalled some rumors in the capital recently. Many cultivators said that the green-robed cultivator before him was the number one Weapon Refinement Master of the Great Zhou Dynasty and could even customize supreme-grade spirit weapons.
Before this, Meng Han refused to believe it and scoffed at the rumors.
He had lived for so long, but he had never heard of any Weapon Refiner who dared to say that they could customize supreme-grade spirit weapons.
Now, Meng Han believed it when he saw the supreme-grade flying sword floating in front of Nien Qi.
Even a little maidservant had a supreme-grade flying sword. How many supreme-grade spiritual artifacts did Mo Ling possess?
…
In the courtyard, Su Zimo, Night Spirit and Nien Qi stood in three different directions, facing off against Meng Han.
Under normal circumstances, an early-stage Foundation Establishment girl would pose no threat to Meng Han.
However, the problem was that the girl was wielding a supreme-grade flying sword!
Although the strength of an early-stage Foundation Establishment was insufficient, the lethality of a supreme-grade flying sword was way too strong.
The two people and beast had different methods and there was nothing to be afraid of if any one of them stood out.
However, the two people and beast each had their own trump cards and none of them could be underestimated!
Nien Qi's supreme-grade flying sword.
Night Spirit's lackey had a strong physique.
However, Su Zimo's methods were the most unfathomable to Meng Han.
He had the body and speed of a demon beast, a terrifying burst of strength, proficient in melee combat techniques and an extremely sharp sense of danger …
Against this Foundation Establishment Cultivator, Meng Han felt a hint of fear in the depths of his heart!
"Ah!"
Meng Han cast aside his distracting thoughts and roared, attacking ferociously.
He could not wait any longer!
This was his final gamble and the only chance to kill Su Zimo!
Pshew! Pshew!
Meng Han's sleeves fluttered and two flying swords shot out.
At the same time, he conjured hand seals with his left hand, conjuring a gigantic blazing disc that enveloped Night Spirit.
Meng Han's first attack was one against three and he was targeting them!
He had witnessed the speed of Night Spirit's movement technique and knew that it would be difficult to stop Night Spirit with a flying sword unless the sword wielding technique was intricate enough.
Therefore, Meng Han chose to use a spirit art that had a larger attack range!
The purpose of that spirit art was to slow down Night Spirit slightly.
As for the other two flying swords, they were extremely fast. One of them headed straight for Nien Qi while the other pierced towards Su Zimo.
Su Zimo's gaze flickered. The moment Meng Han attacked, he moved and stuck close to the ground, arriving before Meng Han in the blink of an eye.
Su Zimo soared into the air and took a deep breath of air. His chest puffed up as he knelt on one knee and raised his hands. It was as though he was holding an immortal peach in his palms as killing intent gushed out from his eyes!
"You've been tricked!"
Meng Han's eyes lit up and he laughed sinisterly. The Jin Dan within his body circulated wildly as he conjured hand seals with both hands, conjuring two long spears that pierced towards Su Zimo viciously!
This was the moment he had been waiting for!
This was a full-powered attack from Perfected Jin Dan and there was no way Su Zimo could defend against it head-on!
The moment Su Zimo died, Meng Han realized that even if he were to attack with all his might against Su Zimo, it would be difficult for him to kill the latter within three breaths as long as the latter chose to escape instead of fighting.
Therefore, Meng Han attacked first to restrain Night Spirit before attacking Su Zimo and Nien Qi at the same time!
That attack did not pose much of a threat to Su Zimo.
However, it was enough to claim Nien Qi's life!
Not everyone possessed Su Zimo's spirit perception and could avoid Perfected Jin Dan's flying sword at Foundation Establishment realm.
Therefore, if Su Zimo wanted to save Nien Qi, he had to attack with all his might!
That scene was exactly the same as how Su Zimo killed Liang Dan Just Now.
The only difference was that Liang Dan was not prepared.
However, Meng Han had already prepared a backup plan!
Before the flying sword could reach Nien Qi, it had already lost Meng Han's control and fell.
That attack was a feint with the goal of luring Su Zimo forward.
Right from the beginning, Meng Han's entire focus was on Su Zimo!
Su Zimo was half-kneeling on the ground while Meng Han stood upright and looked down from above. The two of them were extremely close and were almost face to face.
Su Zimo's outcome seemed to be destined.
Suddenly, Meng Han saw a hint of mockery in Su Zimo's eyes.
"Kill!"
The next moment, Su Zimo suddenly opened his mouth and let out a deafening roar from the depths of his throat!
A massive air current surged over like a sharp arrow.
Meng Han was caught off guard and shuddered. He was momentarily distracted and his hand paused momentarily. However, he still plunged down!
The moment Meng Han was distracted, Su Zimo exerted strength in his legs and fell to the ground, dodging backwards.
The entire process was as smooth as flowing water without any sluggishness at all.
The moment Su Zimo closed in, he retreated at an even faster speed without stopping!
Meng Han's initial attack was a feint.
As for Su Zimo's Sanguine Ape Fruit Offering, it was also a feint!
The one who was fooled was not Su Zimo, but Meng Han.
Su Zimo expected that Meng Han would definitely kill him. However, he could not leave Nien Qi in the lurch. That was the reason why he advanced and retreated.
This was a psychological game of life and death. In the end, Su Zimo won.
