The dazzling sword awn was like a raging flood, whistling through the air until there was nowhere to run.
Han Yunxi knew that this was the moment between life and death.
The white wolf knew that it was impossible to escape this calamity.
Han Yunxi shut her eyes and tried to focus. She wanted to draw the white wolf into her poison storage space.
Since she couldn't escape, she couldn't let Lil Thing fall into their hands.
She could still focus in the face of death. Her heart was still strong, so the only thing that hurt her was her body.
But both her poison storage space and detox system were in a state of collapse. She couldn't operate them at all!
Her eyes widened in shock. How could this be?
In a flash, the white wolf suddenly stood up and raised its claws.
"No!"
Han Yunxi shouted, but it was too late.
The sword awn struck the white wolf's chest, but Han Yunxi grabbed onto its fur and hovered behind its back. She was unharmed.
The fact that the white wolf had been knocked aside proved that Kenzō's internal energy was strong enough that the white wolf was no match for him.
She could clearly feel the white wolf's body shudder.
It wouldn't die, but it would hurt!
"Li Kenshin, you guys –"
Before Han Yunxi could finish, the sword sect master viciously swung his sword again, sending a sword awn as swift as lightning. The white wolf howled and tried to flee with Han Yunxi in tow, but it was obvious that it couldn't escape. The sword qi slashed at its hind legs.
"Awoooo …!"
The white wolf howled in pain! If not for its undying body, it would've died long ago! Who could withstand Old Kenzō's sword?
"Li Kenshin, don't hurt it, I –"
"Awoooo …"
Another sword strike landed on the white wolf's abdomen. The white wolf was clearly in unbearable pain. It suddenly fell from the sky and crashed heavily onto the ground.
Han Yunxi didn't have enough strength to hold on, so she was sent flying. Cang Qiuzi immediately swung his sword at her, but the white wolf ignored the pain in his abdomen to leap up in time to block the blow and catch Han Yunxi.
However, Kenshin Lee's sword did not stop there. His face was as cold as ice as he swung his sword again and again. His speed was extremely fast and his power was boundless.
He was Cloud Realm Continent's number one expert! His sword was the most powerful in all of Cloud Realm Continent!
Even a poisonous beast couldn't withstand such a high-intensity attack. The white wolf couldn't take the initiative to attack, and its dodging speed became slower and slower.
It could only take a beating.
But even so, it still protected Han Yunxi and did not let Han Yunxi get hurt.
Seeing that the white wolf didn't have much strength left, Cang Qiuzi shouted, "Let's go together and help the sect leader. We'll attack Han Yunxi together!"
Seeing that the sect leader didn't speak, the three elders and Cang Qiuzi took to the skies to attack Han Yunxi from above.
At this point, Han Yunxi's poison needles were completely useless.
The white wolf fought one against five and took all of the sword qi from Kenzō and the four elders.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
Streaks of Sword Qi lashed out like whips, ruthlessly striking the white wolf's body. The white wolf no longer roared, nor did it dodge. Instead, it stared fiercely at the Sword Sect Elder and the others. It allowed them to hit it, but it refused to submit.
Han Yunxi's heart broke.
She wrapped her arms around the white wolf's neck and sobbed by its ear. "Lil Thing … I know you're Lil Thing. Be good, won't you?"
"Lil Thing is the most obedient. Be good, won't you? Run away first, won't you? I'll be fine. "
"Lil Thing, I'm begging you. Run away first, won't you? We can't beat them, so hurry up and run. Go find Beiyue … "
So speaking, Han Yunxi released her grip and jumped off the white wolf's back.
At this moment, Cang Qiuzi's sword qi slammed into Han Yunxi's abdomen, sending Han Yunxi flying into the distance. Her body was as light as a leaf in the wind as fresh blood spurted from her wound like a beautiful flower blooming in the air.
"Awoo …!"
The white wolf howled like a madman, its cries echoing throughout Tianshan Kenzō and stunning everyone. Even Elder Kenzō was stunned and stopped attacking.
Han Yunxi landed on the ground, barely breathing, but she held on. She waved weakly at Lil Thing, indicating for it to leave.
But how could the white wolf leave? It pounced at Cang Qiuzi like a madman, but before it could reach him, Elder Kenzō's sword stabbed at Han Yunxi mercilessly.
The white wolf had no choice but to turn around to protect her. Elder Kenzō's sword was pressed against its chest, unable to pierce any further.
But Elder Kenzō's ferocious attacks were futile. Using his sword as a medium, he unleashed a powerful burst of qi against the white wolf's chest.
The white wolf stood in front of Han Yunxi and refused to budge!
"Don't … Lil Thing … go! Go … "
"Lil Thing, listen to me, won't you?!"
… …
Han Yunxi shouted and tugged with all her might, but the white wolf didn't budge.
The crowd gaped at the sight. They'd never seen a poison beast before, but they'd all heard of the Poison Sect's poison beasts. They were vicious, cunning, and bloodthirsty, capable of poisoning the world.
However, the poisonous beast in front of him was completely different from what was described in the legends. Its loyalty and stubbornness were enough to move anyone!
But so what if they were moved?
With Elder Kenzō personally taking action, who would dare to stop him? The disciples at the peak who'd sided with Han Yunxi had long fallen silent. Meanwhile, Xu Donglin lay in a pool of blood on the side, his life or death unknown.
The white wolf stubbornly endured the endless sword qi until the gunpowder in its forehead finally dimmed. It slowly turned to look at Han Yunxi.
Its cruel, cold eyes suddenly softened as a single tear trickled down its face. It was a mixture of self-blame and grief.
Mama Yunxi, I'm sorry. Lil Thing has already … done its best.
Abruptly, its large body transformed into a tiny squirrel that fell to the ground. Its pure white fur was stained with its master's blood.
It wouldn't die, but it would hurt.
What kind of pain was that? All the pain that the huge body had to endure was suddenly added to the palm-sized body. What kind of pain was that?
It curled up into a ball and trembled.
Han Yunxi hastily scooped up Lil Thing, her hands stained with blood that stained its fur red. She quickly hid Lil Thing in her medical pouch, hoping to warm it up.
But soon enough, Elder Kenzō's sword was right in front of her. "Han Yunxi, descendant of the Poison Sect, you must die! Do you want to end your own life, or do you want this senior to do it? Choose one. "
Han Yunxi raised her head in fury and gripped Elder Kenzō's sword with both hands. "I choose neither!" she roared.
"Who has the right to decide one's background? Why should they take my life just because I'm a descendant of the Poison Sect?
"What outrageous things have I done? Which innocent person have I poisoned to death? Speak! "
"Li Kenshin, speak! If you can't, then I won't accept this! "
Han Yunxi refused to accept this!
Silence fell upon the crowd, including Elder Kenzō. Everyone was staring at Han Yunxi's hands. She gripped Elder Kenzō's sword tightly as blood flowed from her wounds.
No one would have thought that this weak and powerless woman would be able to hold on until now.
How stupid was she to grab Elder Kenzō's sword with her bare hands? But no one present, including Duanmu Yao, could laugh.
What else could this woman do besides block with her bare hands?
Granny You couldn't help averting her eyes. She couldn't bear to watch. She was afraid that if she kept watching, she'd waver and lose control of herself to save her.
This girl was so good, so good. Why did she have to be a descendant of the Poison Sect? Why did she have to expose herself at the peak of Celestial Mountain?
"Let go!" Elder Kenzō finally spoke, his voice calm and emotionless.
"I won't! Not even if I die! "Han Yunxi's stubbornness was heart-wrenching." I won't accept this! I won't accept this even if I die! "
Her body was weak, but her spine was straight and unyielding. Her purple dress was stained with blood, but her soul was pure and unsullied!
"Han Yunxi, you didn't do anything wrong. But you must die. "
Elder Kenzō said indifferently before exerting force. His sword pierced through Han Yunxi's hands.
Suddenly!
A beam of sword qi shot out from the side, piercing through multiple Celestial Mountain disciples before landing on the back of Elder Kenzō's hand.
The Sword Sect Master did not expect this and subconsciously let go. His hand was safe, but his sword was in Han Yunxi's hands as well.
Han Yunxi looked back and saw the Celestial Mountain disciples fall to the ground one by one. Then a familiar figure flew towards her.
Long Fei Ye!
A month apart felt like a thousand years; a single wall separated them into life and death.
Long Fei Ye, Yunxi's finally waiting for you. Luckily, I didn't give up.
Han Yunxi wanted to laugh, but her tears flowed uncontrollably.
When she saw him, all of her stubbornness, persistence, and strength crumbled away.
Her hands fell limply to her sides as Elder Kenzō's sword clattered to the ground. Han Yunxi had no strength left as she slowly toppled to the ground.
Before she lost consciousness, she felt a familiar warmth against her: Long Fei Ye's embrace.
Long Feiye's naturally handsome face turned frighteningly cold as he cradled the frail woman who looked like she could be carried away by the wind. His eyes were hooded as he gently smoothed out Han Yunxi's messy hair and wiped away the bloodstains on her face.
Silence fell upon the scene. Even Elder Kenzō didn't make a sound. His eyes flickered between light and dark as he wore a complicated expression.
Long Fei Ye was even quieter, to the point that it made one's heart tremble with fear.
He tore off a corner of his robes and carefully bandaged Han Yunxi's hands. Then he began to inspect her body for injuries, both internal and external. Her stomach was the worst of all.
The quieter he grew, the stronger his killing intent. Cang Qiuzi and the rest were already on guard.
Long Fei Ye channeled true qi into Han Yunxi's body to protect her life. Then he gently placed her on the ground and took off his clean black robes to cover her.
As soon as the black robe was taken off, everyone sucked in a cold breath.
He was only wearing a pure white robe, but his back was soaked with blood. Whip wounds could be faintly seen on his back.
He planted a light kiss on Han Yunxi's lips before rising to his feet.
He coldly swept his gaze over everyone present, his pitch-black eyes blazing with a monstrous rage. He was furious. "Those who have hurt her must all die!"
Silence fell upon the scene. Even the sound of the wind could be heard.
"Feiye …"
Before Elder Kenzō could speak, Long Fei Ye suddenly pointed his sword at him. "You're the first!"
