There was no lack of experts present, but aside from Song QingShu, no one else could see how the sword had stabbed the person behind him.
Seeing Zhao Gou get stabbed, Ding Dian was scared out of his wits. He only relaxed when he realized that Zhao Gou had only been stabbed in the shoulder.
If Ling Huchong, who was pretending to be Wu Tiande, had not reacted quickly and pushed Xiao Long Nu's sword a few inches to the side, this sword would not have stabbed Zhao Gou's shoulder, but his throat.
The surrounding people were all secretly admiring the brilliance of Wu Tiande's swordsmanship, to be able to block such an elusive sword. They did not know that Ling Huchong was currently filled with fear.
"Invincible East!" These were the four words that appeared in Ling Huchong's mind. Xiao Long Nu's sword was too fast. Usually, when there was a flash of white light, someone would be hit. Just now, he could only see a blurry shadow of the sword, and he had only blocked her sword out of instinct. Even so, he had not been able to completely block the opponent's long sword, and had still injured Zhao Gou. If he had to do it again, he did not have the confidence that he could protect Zhao Gou.
This kind of sword speed made Ling Huchong think of the battle with Invincible East on Blackwood Cliff. At that time, the opponent was also very fast, so fast that even when they worked together, they were at a disadvantage.
At that time, the reason why they could still exchange blows with Invincible East was mainly because the opponent had a short and small embroidery needle in his hand. Every time, Ling Huchong used the method of making both sides suffer. Because the embroidery needle was too short, the two of them attacked each other's vitals at the same time. Although Ling Huchong was slower, his sword was longer. So even though he was at an absolute disadvantage, he could exchange blows and barely hold on.
If Invincible East had been holding a long sword at that time, Ling Huchong thought that his blood would have already spilled on Blackwood Cliff.
Right now, the speed at which this beautiful woman in white attacked did not seem to be any slower than Dongfang Bubai's, and she held a longsword in her hands. Ling Huchong's skin instantly crawled. He had a lot of experience in actual combat, and he was not a pedantic person. He instantly used Nine Solitary Swords and joined the fray.
Xiao Long Nu's elegant eyebrows were slightly knitted together as the tip of her sword trembled. With a flash of cold light, Linghu Chong's left wrist, right wrist, left leg, and right leg were all struck by the sword. Fortunately, the Nine Swords Beyond the Swords had attacked his vital points, so Xiao Long Nu had no choice but to withdraw her sword and defend herself. Although Linghu Chong's body was covered in wounds that looked frightening, they were all superficial wounds.
Seeing that Linghu Chong was wounded, Ding Dian bellowed and leaped into the battlefield once more.
Right now, Linghu Chong had mastered the Yi Jin Jing, the Absorbing Stars Great Skill, and the Nine Solitary Swords Beyond the Swords. Ding Dian had also mastered the God Reflecting Scripture, and his Shadowless Divine Fist was also famous in Jianghu. Looking at the entire Jianghu, they were all top experts.
The two of them joined forces to fight, and their momentum was very powerful. But Xiao Long Nu's white robes fluttered, and a cold light flashed. Her two swords were like two silver snakes that continuously moved between the three of them. She advanced and retreated as fast as lightning, and unexpectedly did not show any signs of being defeated.
Suddenly, Ding Dian let out a cry of "Aiyo!", followed by Linghu Chong's "Oh no!". The two of them were struck one after the other. Fortunately, their attacks were also very fierce. Xiao Long Nu had no choice but to hastily think of a way to save herself. As a result, one of her swords missed its mark, and the other, although accurate, only went in a few inches and was unable to injure the enemy.
Song Qingshu secretly sighed. Last time in Gu Mu, he used the Solitary Yang Finger to open Xiao Long Nu's Conception and Governing Vessels. Now, her Jade Women's Heart Sutra had been cultivated to the Large Success Realm. Compared to when she had gone to Chongyang Palace, her cultivation had increased by a level. No wonder Ling Huchong and Ding Dian were having so much trouble dealing with her.
Of course, it was not that Xiao Long Nu's martial arts were that much better than Linghu Chong's and Ding Dian's. In terms of internal energy, she was even inferior to those two. However, the speed of Xiao Long Nu's sword was too fast, and her lightness skill was far superior to those two. Linghu Chong was still able to counterattack with the Nine Strategies Beyond the Swords from time to time, but Ding Dian, who had a body full of vigorous inner energy, could not even touch the hem of Xiao Long Nu's clothes.
The yellow-robed woman, who was watching from the side, saw that the two were surrounded by danger. She could not help but join in the fight. Originally, with her pride, she did not want to bully others with numbers. However, this white-robed woman's lightning-fast sword was too amazing. She did not have the confidence to defeat her. If something really happened to the Emperor, then it would be too late for regrets.
The yellow-robed woman had cultivated the Nine Yin Manual since she was young. On top of that, her lightness skill was much better than Ding Dian and Linghu Chong's. Once she joined in, the two immediately felt the pressure on them lessen.
Xiao Long Nu's delicate eyebrows furrowed slightly. With the three great masters attacking from both sides, the situation gradually became disadvantageous to her. Seeing that in this short period of time, Zhao Gou was being protected by a group of Imperial Bodyguards and retreating to the back of the hall, she became even more anxious. She could not help but speak in a crisp voice. "I have no enmity with you. I don't want to fight with you. Get out of my way."
"Huh?" Everyone in the field was stunned. Who would have thought that she would actually say such naive words. As the Imperial Bodyguards, their duty was to protect the Emperor. What did it have to do with enmity?
Song Qingshu had a bitter smile on his face. Xiao Long Nu was indeed as silly and adorable as he remembered her to be.
Ding Dian said in a clear voice, "This is my duty. I dare not give way."
Xiao Long Nu said coldly, "Since you are not willing to give way, then I will have to offend you!" Just as she finished speaking, where the sword flashed, suddenly there was a series of sounds, leisurely and uninterrupted.
Linghu Chong and Ding Dian's expressions changed. It turned out that this long sound was made up of over forty extremely short, continuous strikes. In that instant, Xiao Long Nu's twin swords had already stabbed, sliced, pointed, and chopped. In total, she had made over forty moves. Even a master of the Pipa would not have been able to make such rapid movements. The two of them saw a vast expanse of whiteness in front of them. They hurriedly brandished their weapons so that not even a drop of water could penetrate. Every move collided with the other weapons. To the crowd, it was just a long sound of weapons clashing.
Xiao Long Nu wanted to force the two of them to defend themselves. Seeing that they were as if they were facing a great enemy, guarding their vital acupoints tightly, she pursed her lips and smiled. She directly leaped over the two of them and flew in the direction of Zhao Gou.
Only then did Ding Dian and Linghu Chong realize that they had fallen into a trap. They hurriedly chased after her. Unfortunately, their lightness skills were far inferior to Xiao Long Nu's. They could only watch as the distance between the two of them grew larger and larger.
The yellow-shirted girl's lightness skills were better than the two of them, but she had lost the initiative. Even though she was not pulled further and further away by Xiao Long Nu, she was still unable to close the distance between the two of them. She could only hope that the Imperial Bodyguards by Zhao Gou's side would be able to hold her off for a while.
But she was quickly disappointed. Even though those Imperial Bodyguards were carefully selected masters, but even she was unable to withstand Xiao Long Nu's swift sword, let alone these normal masters.
"Ding dang", "qiang lang", "aiyo", "not good" sounds rose and fell. In an instant, the swords in the hands of those Imperial Bodyguards fell to the ground. Every one of them had a sword strike on their wrists. The strange thing was that Xiao Long Nu had used the same move, "Jade Bracelet of White Wrist". When the Imperial Bodyguards saw her sword flash past in front of their eyes, they felt a sharp pain in their wrists. They could only wait helplessly to be killed. Luckily, Xiao Long Nu had a kind heart. If her sword had not pierced their wrists, but aimed at their chest and abdomen instead, their corpses would have long been strewn everywhere.
