Previously, Medusa had caused a stir on the Peninsula of Gods, letting the entire Federation know of Medusa's existence.
However, in the various videos and images they had seen, Medusa was a snake-haired demoness. Not many people had seen the young Medusa.
Furthermore, ever since Medusa was killed, no new Medusa had passed through the spatial rift and arrived at the Curse Demon Palace.
Therefore, the members of the Xia family didn't know the young Medusa. If they did, they definitely wouldn't dare look at the young Medusa, much less look into her eyes.
Unlike the snake-haired demoness, the young Medusa didn't have the ability to petrify others. Her Eyes of Enticement needed others to see her eyes before they could take effect.
At that moment, more than ten thousand Xia family members saw the young Medusa's eyes. Immediately, their bodies turned petrified as they turned pale with fright.
Xia Xuanyue's expression changed drastically as she immediately realized the problem. She closed her eyes and brandished her sword at the young Medusa.
However, because many owners of Epic swords saw the young Medusa's eyes, their bodies slowly petrified. They couldn't circulate their Essence Energy, nor could they use the Epic swords in their hands to cooperate with Xia Xuanyue. This greatly reduced the might of Xia Xuanyue's sword beams.
Zhou Wen held the Golden Overlord Sword and slashed out a sword beam to resist Xia Xuanyue's sword beam.
The ancient sword in Xia Xuanyue's hand was also transformed from a Mythical Companion Beast. It wasn't inferior to the Golden Overlord Sword, but the Golden Overlord Sword's attributes were too domineering. When the sword beams collided, the ancient sword beam shattered after losing the augmentation of the ten thousand swords. The Golden Overlord Sword's sword beam continued slashing at Xia Xuanyue.
Xia Xuanyue closed her eyes and moved, dodging the Golden Sword Beam. At the same time, she brandished her sword and attacked Zhou Wen. Her movement technique was the Path to Snatching Heaven that Zhou Wen had seen before.
Back then, Zhou Wen had fought with Xia Xuanyue on the Path to Snatching Heaven that gave Transcendent Flying Immortal a chance to advance to the Mythical stage. In that battle, Xia Xuanyue had also comprehended the profundities of the Path to Snatching Heaven, allowing it to advance to the Mythical stage.
Now, Xia Xuanyue's Path to Snatching Heaven had become even more mature. It had the boldness of snatching the Path to Snatching Heaven. Just her movement technique alone gave others immense pressure.
Zhou Wen carried the log, so he couldn't use Transcendent Flying Immortal to compete with Xia Xuanyue's Path to Snatching Heaven. The Golden Overlord Sword was also somewhat clumsy, making it unsuitable for fighting Xia Xuanyue. Zhou Wen threw the Golden Overlord Sword out and let it attack on its own. He drew his Bamboo Blade and faced Xia Xuanyue's sword.
Medusa retreated to the side under Zhou Wen's control. Her combat strength was very weak. Xia Xuanyue's sword beam could probably kill her, so she wasn't suitable to participate in the battle.
However, Zhou Wen couldn't summon her back because the Eyes of Enticement couldn't permanently petrify people. They needed to see her to be petrified.
If Zhou Wen unsummoned her, those people would recover from their petrified state after a while.
Although they were both petrification skills, the young Medusa's skill was Eyes of Temptation, which was different in nature from Eyes of Petrification.
Previously, when Zhou Wen fought Medusa, Truth Listener's Evil Nullification could restrain the snake-haired demoness's Eyes of Petrification, but it couldn't restrain the Eyes of Enticement because the two were different in nature.
Xia Xuanyue believed that Zhou Wen had killed more than ten thousand swordsmen and felt grief in her heart. The ancient sword in her hand didn't show any mercy as she slashed at Zhou Wen again and again with the Path to Snatching Heaven movement technique.
"Although our Xia family is big, among the younger generation, only Liuchuan and Little Yue are promising. To be able to cultivate the Path to Snatching Heaven movement technique to such a level, I'm afraid Liuchuan wouldn't have been able to do it at her age, right?" the middle-aged man sighed.
A strange glint flashed in Old Master Xia's eyes as he said indifferently, "Little Yue's talent is very good, but unfortunately, she's a girl. She ultimately can't inherit our Xia family's business."
The middle-aged man said, "However, it's a great blessing for our Xia family that Little Yue can assist Liuchuan in the future."
Zhang Chunqiu was also paying attention to the battle in Forbidden City. When he saw Xia Xuanyue's movement technique, he couldn't help but praise, "Good movement technique. Dugu, your movement technique is only so-so, right?"
"Her movement technique isn't inferior to mine." Dugu Ge nodded.
Dugu Ge couldn't see the situation in Forbidden City himself, but when Zhou Wen entered the city, he had already secretly released some Gu to sneak in. Using the information transmitted by the Gu, he also knew the situation in Forbidden City.
Shen Yuchi and the other members of the bureau had been using binoculars to observe the situation in Forbidden City, but there was a mysterious force in Forbidden City. Ordinary binoculars couldn't see in at all. They could only occasionally see terrifying sword beams shoot out, but nothing else.
Zhou Wen knew the Path to Snatching Heaven movement technique rather well. Although he couldn't dodge, the Bamboo Blade in his hand blocked Xia Xuanyue's sword time and time again. As he fought, he retreated in the direction of the Hall of Supreme Harmony.
"This Zhou Wen is really impressive. He can actually block such a powerful movement technique and sword technique while carrying such a heavy piece of wood," Dugu Ge praised.
"Don't you think that Zhou Wen seems to know Xia Xuanyue's movement technique very well? It looks like he can predict the future, "Zhang Chunqiu said with narrowed eyes.
"Is it a special ability? I heard that there's a girl in the Ultimate Family Clan who possesses the Eye of Odin and can see through everything, "Dugu Ge said after some thought.
"It doesn't seem like it. I think it's more like Zhou Wen knows Xia Xuanyue's movement technique very well," Zhang Chunqiu said.
"You mean that Zhou Wen and Xia Xuanyue have an affair?" Dugu Ge said frankly. He wasn't like Zhang Chunqiu who liked to speak half-truths. He had always been very straightforward.
"I only know that Zhou Wen definitely knows Xia Xuanyue's movement technique very well. I don't know if there's an affair," Zhang Chunqiu said with a shrug.
Old Master Xia and the middle-aged man frowned as well. Clearly, they had the same opinion as Zhang Chunqiu. Xia Xuanyue's powerful Path to Snatching Heaven movement technique was actually blocked by Zhou Wen's saber. It was as though he had predicted the future. This was definitely not something that could be explained simply by having powerful saber techniques.
"Little Yue previously represented our Xia family to Luoyang to be a witness for Zhou Wen. Perhaps she interacted with Zhou Wen at that time. Perhaps she fought Zhou Wen before. It's unlikely that she deliberately leaked the Path to Snatching Heaven movement technique," the middle-aged man said.
"Zhou Wen's understanding of the Path to Snatching Heaven movement technique isn't as simple as fighting it," Old Master Xia said indifferently. "Ah Cheng, go and settle this matter."
"What about Liuchuan …" The middle-aged man, Ah Cheng, was somewhat hesitant.
"I've given him too much time," Old Master Xia said expressionlessly.
"I know what to do." Ah Cheng bowed slightly before jumping down the city gate tower and walking towards the Gate of Supreme Harmony.
Xia Liuchuan, who was fighting Tyrant Behemoth, saw Ah Cheng come down and his expression changed slightly.
