Before Yan Chaoyang could reach Yan Ping Gate, he was stopped again.
The one who stopped him was Jiang Changtian, the instructor of the Inner Yard of the Academy and a former bandit.
"As someone who has been in the same trade, I advise you to surrender," Jiang Changtian said calmly.
"No one knows better than me how terrifying the Empire is. No matter what, you and Yan Li will not be able to escape from Yongling. No one in the world can save you."
Yan Zhaoyang never liked to use words to express his intentions. Swinging the Dragon Soul Spear, the Dragon Soul Spear transformed into a black dragon and smashed towards Jiang Changtian.
Jiang Changtian laughed coldly. "Since you want to die, don't blame me for not warning you!"
Just as he finished speaking, the saber light flashed. The saber blade and the spear body collided violently. The collision of energy against energy produced a violent explosion.
The power of the Dragon Soul Spear was extremely frightening. Jiang Changtian's hand, which was holding the knife, trembled slightly and shifted several feet to his right. However, his expression was still calm. From the moment Su Yu was defeated, he knew that Yan Zhaoyang's abilities were very strong, unreasonably strong. However, he was not alone, so he did not forcefully stop Yan Zhaoyang from escaping.
"Do you think the road ahead is bright? It is a darkness you cannot predict, "he said.
Yan Chaoyang was expressionless and unmoved. He swept past Jiang Changtian and was several feet away in the blink of an eye. At this time, before the other party could finish speaking, he sensed that he was being watched. He suddenly stopped in his tracks. Two hands holding short knives suddenly appeared in the void in front of him and cut like a pair of scissors.
If he continued to rush forward, his head would definitely be cut off. He took half a step back and stood still, looking over coldly.
"As expected of Mister Second, hehehe." Ripples appeared in the void, as if the fog had suddenly dispersed. A man in black appeared in front of him. Strangely, he was standing in the air with nothing under his feet.
"Step Void Yama." Yan Chaoyang raised his head slightly and spoke, which was rare.
"I didn't expect Mister Second to recognize me. It's truly an honor." The person who had appeared was the inner court instructor, Ruan Tianhe. He was a lone assassin in his early years, and he wandered between the underworld and the underworld. The Void Steps that he created was renowned throughout the world, and it was a technique that allowed one to walk through space. Coupled with his assassination techniques, he was truly elusive, and it was even more difficult to escape his assassination than ascending to the heavens. Thus, he had the nickname of the Void Steps Yama.
His tone was slightly smug as he glanced at Jiang Changtian from afar.
Yan Chaoyang said no more. A red light flashed in his eyes as he stomped on the ground with his right foot. A murderous blood-colored iris extended along the ground and arrived at Ruan Tianhe's feet like a bolt of lightning. It transformed into a blood-colored hand and grabbed him.
Being grabbed by the blood-colored hand, Ruan Tianhe's expression changed drastically. "What, what is this?" He felt as if all the strength in his body had been sucked away, causing him to feel dizzy for a moment. In his shock, he mobilized his Vital Qi recklessly, causing it to form a whirlpool in his Dantian. Then, it exploded with a loud bang and rushed into his limbs and bones. This explosion was a suicidal act, and his internal organs were almost displaced. However, with this rush, the strange force that had entered his body was also temporarily dispersed. He used this opportunity to break free from the blood-colored hand and hid in the air. When he reappeared, he was already on the wall on the right, looking at Yan Chaoyang in shock.
"Hmph, useless," Jiang Changtian said disdainfully as he caught up from the wall on the left.
"You …" Ruan Tianhe was furious, but the other party was right. He could not vent his anger, and his internal organs were almost set on fire. He had indeed lost his composure just now. If he had held back and waited for Jiang Changtian to rescue him, he would not have had to resort to such a self-destructive method to save himself. However, he could not be blamed for this. He was originally a lone assassin, and it was his instinct to deal with danger by himself when he encountered it.
Yan Chaoyang did not even look at the two of them. With a light tap of his foot, he rushed forward again.
However, in less than two steps, he suddenly exerted his strength and commanded the Dragon Soul Spear to stab forward.
"Boom!"
In the darkness, a huge palm print came crashing down with the force of an avalanche, colliding with the tip of the spear. Two different forces of Qi clashed fiercely, causing the walls on both sides to be almost completely destroyed.
A woman wearing a light yellow dress slowly walked out from the corner of the street. She had the pure and flawless aura of an orchid, and also the noble aura of a fearless plum blossom. The two different auras complemented each other on her body. She had the charm of someone who was too long to add a little more, and too short to subtract a little less.
She was, of course, Shen Liuyun, a woman who was as elusive as Drifting Cloud. Freedom was her heart, and impermanence was her soul. She could roam the world as she pleased, and there were no boundaries.
"The empire may be big, but there is no place for you. Why don't you surrender?" she said softly.
"Leave the Dust in the Dust!"
Yan Chaoyang's face was as cold as iron. Even a woman like Shen Liuyun could not move him. With the Dragon Soul Spear Puppet behind him, he suddenly took a step forward. With just this action, a boundless aura surged out from his body, pushing the airflow like raging waves, covering the heavens and covering the earth as it charged towards Shen Liuyun.
Shen Liuyun raised her right hand and closed her slender fingers into a palm. "Grand Emperor Wu Yin, Leap Over the Dragon Gate." Her palm rose as she spoke. It was as smooth as flowing water, but it also seemed like she was raising her Qi. Her movement was gentle and graceful. As her palm rose, a white mist appeared from nothingness, rising and falling with her palm as a guide. It circled in mid-air and fell down, condensing into a koi fish that was about to leap over the dragon gate.
Rumble!
Almost without any pause, the two huge forces of Qi collided and suddenly expanded. Because the two sides were exceptionally strong, neither retreating nor giving way, the aftermath poured out from both sides. In the rumbling sound, the alley was pushed into a relatively deep ditch, as if a crossroads had been opened. Several houses along the way were reduced to ruins under the impact.
That was not all. The destructive disaster seemed to have just begun. The two wrestled with each other had no intention of stopping. Their Qi was endless, spreading wave after wave of impact to the left and right.
Jiang Changtian saw an opening and suddenly jumped down from the wall. He pulled out his saber halfway and almost turned into a dark saber light, pouncing towards Yan Chaoyang.
In the blink of an eye, Yan Chaoyang glanced sideways. His right hand held the spear motionlessly, while his left hand stretched out, igniting a dark blue flame in his palm, and he threw it backwards.
At this moment, Jiang Changtian was behind Yan Zhaoyang, and he saw all of these actions clearly. His mind couldn't help but be greatly shocked, as he never expected that Yan Zhaoyang would still be able to spare some strength to deal with Chen Liuyun.
However, his fighting spirit was exceptionally high.
His body in mid-air, he suddenly sheathed his saber and closed his eyes slightly. "North Sea, Mountain." His figure suddenly elongated, as if he had fallen into an illusion. His shape was strange and strange. Only the saber at his waist became clearer, fiercer, and heavier.
Clang!
The saber light flashed. This strike was like a mountain crashing down. The dark blue flame was shattered with a loud bang, and the remaining force rushed towards Yan Chaoyang.
Yan Chaoyang exerted force with his right hand and fiercely crushed the smoke fish. He then spun in the air and deviated from his original position from Shen Liuyun's counterattack. After landing, he had the strength to block the Dragon Soul Spear.
Ping Ping Ping!
The mountain-like saber light seemed like hundreds of sharp blades chopping on the Dragon Soul Spear. The heavy and heavy saber force caused Yan Chaoyang to retreat step by step, and his breathing finally became a little disordered.
It was this gap that made the back of his neck suddenly turn cold and spread throughout his whole body.
The red light in Yan Chaoyang's eyes surged. He suddenly roared, and his blood-colored irises suddenly spread out. The earth trembled, and Ruan Tianhe's figure was involuntarily shaken out of the void. With fear in his eyes, he actually did not dare to attack and quickly retreated.
Yan Chaoyang seized the opportunity to flash into the gap on the left and escape from the other side of the alley.
"You good-for-nothing!" Jiang Changtian saw that Ruan Tianhe had missed the opportunity to severely injure Yan Chaoyang and even let him escape. He was so angry that he shouted, "Three first-grade martial artists besieged a bandit, but he still managed to escape. Tomorrow, this matter will spread all over China. Let's see if you still have the face to call yourself the Void Step Yama."
Ruan Tianhe sneered and said, "It's better than me dying and the two of you killing Yan Chaoyang. You'll gain both fame and power." He did not have the noble sentiment of sacrificing himself for others.
"What's the point of two good-for-nothings fighting over who's more good-for-nothing?" Shen Liuyun interrupted them impatiently. "He's about to run out of stamina. Hurry up and go after him!"
…
On the other side, Lan Yu's beloved pet was killed by Yan Li. He was boiling with anger. Suddenly, a masked man appeared and said that as long as he pulled out his sword, it would be the end of him. It sounded absurd and ridiculous, but there was an indescribable sense of panic in his heart. It seemed that his intuition was reminding him that the other side was not joking.
At this time, the court officers with torches formed a long line behind Yan Li. They filled the alleys, roofs, and walls behind him, leaving no space for escape.
But it was meaningless. Yan Li would never go back to his original path.
"Let's go. I'll take you out. Leaving here means your failure. Leave the rest to us, "the masked man said slowly. "You're not a kid anymore. It's not good to act shamelessly. As an elder brother, I have to teach a shameless younger brother a lesson."
"Really?" The corner of Yan Li's mouth rose slightly. "Then, as your younger brother, let me teach you a lesson. Don't say victory or defeat easily until the end. There's still a lot to be done. The key to breaking the deadlock is in my hands. Maybe you should watch from the side and enjoy the drama of 'fighting for the dragon and the phoenix'."
"I hate it when you act like you're in control of the world. And it's just an act." The masked man walked forward slowly.
With every step he took, Lan Yu took a step back. He didn't dare to fight with the masked man. His eyes were fixed on the cyan sword on the masked man's waist.
"However, I have to admit that you're always right in the end. Otherwise, I wouldn't bow down to you. But I still have to say that you have to change your temper. You think you're narcissistic, but in fact, you stink. Forget it. I'll walk you to this intersection. You're on your own. "
At this time, they walked out of the alleys and came to the main road connecting the north and the south. A few miles away, they would arrive at Yanping Gate.
Yan Li didn't stop. He walked forward in a straight line. "The fact that you're here at this time only means one thing. You're still the peerless Wushuang in the world."
Lan Yu's face looked terrible. Because he and his subordinates could only watch Yan Li walk further and further away. The masked man, with his hand on the hilt of his sword, stood not far away from them and watched them. Everyone felt like there was a sharp sword hanging in their hearts. They didn't dare to move.
Of course, there were always people who weren't afraid of death. At this time, a justice couldn't stand it anymore. He roared and rushed forward.
All of a sudden, Lan Yu heard an extremely faint sword hum. He could not help but widen his eyes. The masked man's hand that was holding the sword seemed to tremble a little. The charging chief of the court slowed down for a moment before coming to a halt. His expression turned from indignant to bewildered. Following that, his body shattered.
An indescribable fear suddenly spread all over his body. He shouted in a hoarse voice, "Sword, Sword of Death …"
"Oh, you still have some eyes," the masked man said slowly.
"Since you recognized my sword, you should know that I'm Wushuang. I'm not the peerless Wushuang in the world they say. My name is Wushuang."
After a pause, he added, "Yan Wushuang."
