"Who are you people?" Xu Huande shouted as he swung his sword.
Although he was exhausted and could fall at any time, his sword was still moving as if he was not affected at all. It showed that he had a strong foundation and the foundation of his swordsmanship was beyond imagination. He must have put in a lot of hard work and was showing it now.
"Hehe …" The four masked men in black smirked. They planned to say something to affect him and affect his condition. This guy was too difficult to deal with!
He was about to be defeated, but he did not lose. It made them feel uneasy.
"Can't you guess who we are?" One of the masked men in black shouted, "Do you want us to say it?"
"I can't," Xu Huande said in a deep voice.
"You just don't want to admit it." The masked man in black shook his head. "But if you don't want to admit it, we won't admit it either. So, you can be a muddled ghost!"
"Which prince sent you here?" Xu Huande asked with a snort.
"Whatever you say." The masked man in black smirked. "As long as you go to hell, you can say who you want."
Xu Huande scoffed. "Which prince?"
"What do you think?" The masked man in black smiled. "Why don't you take a guess?"
Xu Huande fell silent. He knew that these people would not reveal anything. The more they behaved this way, the more he felt that they were sent by the Emperor. If they were from other forces, he would have to show off. Otherwise, he would not feel satisfied.
He swung his sword continuously, but his speed had slowed down. He had no strength left and was completely powerless. He had no chance of winning against the protectors from the Imperial House.
Since the Emperor wanted to kill him, it would be futile for him to resist. How could he escape from the Emperor's palm?
"Ding …" His sword suddenly flew out of his hand. Then, he swung his sword, trying to cut off his head.
He tried his best to fall back and avoided the sword, but he could not avoid the other sword.
The sword stabbed his chest. The tip of the sword came out of his back and was dyed red with blood.
"Ugh …" Xu Huande moaned. He tried his best to widen his eyes and attacked with his palm. He wanted to die together with the man who hurt him.
However, the masked man with the sword reacted quickly. When he saw Xu Huande's palm, he immediately dodged to the side to avoid the strong palm energy.
Bang! Xu Huande's palm force created a large pit on the ground. His body was like a leaking balloon, his strength quickly leaking out from his wound. His entire body was limp and he could no longer exert any strength.
"You …" Xu Huande clutched the knife in his chest and pointed at them. "Can you tell me who you are now?"
"No." The four masked men in black shook their heads.
Xu Huande smiled bitterly. He didn't expect them to be so vigilant. Even in such a situation, they still didn't tell him and refused to let him know.
"Alright …" Xu Huande sighed. "I didn't want to use this secret technique, but you guys forced me to!"
Suddenly, his body swelled up like an inflated balloon. His aura surged again, and the saber that was originally stuck in his chest shot out. Blood spurted out, but he quickly stopped the bleeding with a few moves.
It was as if he had not been injured at all. His aura was astonishing, and his eyes were like lightning. With a wave of his hand, the sword nearby flew into his hand.
"He used the secret technique. He won't be able to hold on for long!" The four masked men in black looked at each other.
At this moment, the bright sunlight shone in the forest and on their bodies. Their black clothes were as black as ink, and their gleaming eyes were especially cold.
The four masked men in black rushed up to attack Xu Huande. The saber gleams were more intense than before, but under Xu Huande's sword gleams, their saber gleams were overshadowed.
Initially, they didn't want to use the secret technique because there would always be repercussions. However, it seemed like they had to use it now. Therefore, they performed the secret technique one after another. Their aura changed drastically, and the saber gleams became brighter, able to compete with the sword gleams.
For a moment, the two parties were in a stalemate again. The saber gleams whistled, and the sword gleams sizzled.
Time passed unknowingly, and they were still in a stalemate. As time passed, all of them lost their strength. Their sword movements became slower and weaker, and their saber movements became limp.
"Ugh …" One of the masked men in black was stabbed in the chest and fell down. The other three were enraged. They raised their spirits and attacked fiercely again.
This time, Xu Huande had completely used up all his strength. He wanted to dodge, but he was powerless.
"Chi!" A saber slashed his chest, and a long wound appeared on his chest. It looked like a baby's mouth, and blood gushed out instantly, drenching his clothes.
"Ah …" Xu Huande roared angrily. He wanted to swing his sword again, but he was powerless. He could only lean against a tree and slowly slide down. His legs could no longer support his body weight, and he was sweating profusely.
"Hehe …" The three masked men in black finally let out a sigh of relief. White steam was rising from their bodies, and they had no strength left in their hands. The saber seemed to be as heavy as a thousand pounds, and they couldn't lift it at all. It was difficult for them to even take a step forward.
Their secret technique had reached its limit, and their bodies were extremely weak. It seemed like they couldn't even lift a finger.
"Let's go, finish him off!" One of the masked men in black said in a deep voice.
The three of them surrounded Xu Huande who was sitting on the ground.
Xu Huande leaned against a tree and stared at them coldly. "At this point, you still don't want to tell us who's the mastermind?"
"You can guess." One of the masked men in black shook his head. "We'll never tell you."
"Hmph!" Xu Huande said coldly. "My ending will be your ending! Think about who I am! "
"Hehe …" The masked men in black laughed and continued to approach him.
Xu Huande closed his eyes. "Just give me a quick death!"
"Don't worry, it'll be quick!" One of the masked men in black mustered the last bit of strength he had left in his body, and swung his saber. He was about to cut off Xu Huande's head and complete this difficult mission.
They had never expected that they would lose three people.
"Swoosh!" A cold light suddenly appeared in the forest and struck the saber.
"Ding …" A crisp sound was heard, and the saber was knocked away by the cold light.
"Thud!" The saber was shot into a tree, and only the handle was left trembling. The saber was completely buried in the tree.
"Who is it?!" The three masked men in black were shocked and furious.
They had no way of defending themselves now, and could only wait for death if they encountered an opponent.
Chu Li appeared in front of Xu Huande, and smiled. "Commander Xu, you look so pathetic?"
He went forward and stuffed a pill into Xu Huande's mouth, then sealed the wound on his chest with his fingers. He then took out a porcelain bottle and applied some ointment on the wound, and turned to look at the three masked men in black who were trying their best to retreat.
"Bam bam bam!" Chu Li suddenly disappeared, and instantly circled around the three men. The three of them fell backward.
Xu Huande hurriedly shouted, "Spare them!"
Chu Li had already returned to his original position, and smiled. "Don't worry, they won't die, they just fainted!"
"Phew …" Xu Huande let out a long sigh of relief. "Chu Li, why are you here?"
"I was worried, so I came to take a look, and as expected, I ran into trouble." Chu Li shook his head.
Xu Huande smiled bitterly. "You shouldn't have come, you shouldn't have gotten involved in this!"
