At last, it was Abbess Miejue's turn to make her move!

Chen Xiaofan's breathing suddenly quickened!

The Emei Sect had been founded by Guo Xiang, but Senior Guo Xiang had long since passed away. Now, Abbess Miejue was the only one who had mastered all of Guo Xiang's supreme arts. Once she made her move, there would be one more powerhouse in the world who knew Guo Xiang's martial arts—that was himself!

There was no need to say how formidable Guo Xiang had been.

"Emei Nine Yang Skill!"

Abbess Miejue gave a low cry, her figure seeming both real and illusory as she swiftly swept toward Zhang Wuji!

In a mere instant, she closed in before Zhang Wuji's face!

"Boom!"

The moment the two clashed, sand and stones flew while black smoke billowed.

Many people in the arena were blasted dozens of meters away by the overwhelming force, their cries of pain rising one after another.

You watched Abbess Miejue's Emei Nine Yang Skill and rapidly analyzed its essence. Your Emei Nine Yang Skill has reached full mastery!

Chen Xiaofan secretly reaped the rewards, wild with joy!

According to the original work, the Emei Nine Yang Skill was the Emei Sect's supreme art and the source of one's Internal Energy. Guo Xiang had created it from the Nine Yang Divine Manual that Master Jueyuan recited before his death. It had once been immensely powerful!

"Rumble!"

The explosions in the arena continued. Abbess Miejue and Zhang Wuji had exchanged only several dozen moves, yet smoke and dust had already risen all around them. Their movements were so fast that the eye could scarcely follow them, like lightning merging with thunder.

"Emei Swordplay!" A low cry came from within the thick smoke.

Chen Xiaofan could not help growing even more focused. Abbess Miejue truly deserved to be a grandmaster of her generation. The Emei Swordplay she displayed was far more powerful than Ning Xuerou's—boundlessly exquisite, her sword pouring forth like a mighty river, surging without end, passionate and majestic.

Sword light scattered in every direction, like dragons and serpents dancing.

You watched Abbess Miejue's Emei Swordplay and rapidly analyzed its essence. You comprehended the Emei Earth-Shaking Divine Sword!

"Miejue Twin Swords!"

"Four Symbols Palm!"

"Snowy Cloud Piercing Palm!"

"Intercepting Hand Nine Forms!"

"Golden Summit Cotton Palm!"

"Buddha's Light Shines Upon All!"

"Heavenly Swordplay!"

"..."

Abbess Miejue continuously unleashed all manner of exquisite supreme arts, forcing Zhang Wuji to furrow his brow and not dare underestimate her.

Especially when facing her Intercepting Hand Nine Forms, he took a step back and turned sideways to evade it.

You watched Abbess Miejue's Miejue Twin Swords and rapidly analyzed its true meaning. Your Miejue Twin Swords have reached full mastery! You watched Abbess Miejue's Four Symbols Palm and rapidly analyzed its core. Your Four Symbols Palm has reached full mastery! You watched Abbess Miejue's Snowy Cloud Piercing Palm and rapidly analyzed its essence. Your Snowy Cloud Piercing Palm has reached full mastery! You watched Abbess Miejue's Intercepting Hand Nine Forms and rapidly analyzed its essence. Your Intercepting Hand Nine Forms have reached full mastery! You watched Abbess Miejue's Buddha's Light Shines Upon All and rapidly analyzed its essence. Your Buddha's Light Shines Upon All has reached full mastery! You watched Abbess Miejue's Heavenly Swordplay and rapidly analyzed its essence. Your Heavenly Swordplay has reached full mastery!

"What? Heavenly Swordplay!" Chen Xiaofan was startled, then utterly overjoyed!

He had never expected to steal the method of using the Heavenly Sword. This... worked! This time, he had made a fortune yet again!

"Boom!"

"Crack-crack-crack~~!!!"

As Abbess Miejue unleashed her divine might, the surrounding terrain was easily reshaped. Her fierce battle with Zhang Wuji drew constant cheers from the Six Major Sects.

The Six Major Sects were stunned as they watched, sighing one after another. "As expected of Abbess Miejue. The moment she acts, you know whether she has what it takes!"

"That's right. Only she can keep this Zeng Aniu in check!"

The words had barely fallen.

With a thunderous boom, Zhang Wuji used some unknown martial art, blasting Abbess Miejue straight away. She crashed heavily onto the ground, and the Heavenly Sword flew from her hand, falling toward the sky.

Before anyone could recover from their shock, three Emei disciples leaped into the air and flew toward the Heavenly Sword, determined to prevent it from falling into Zhang Wuji's hands.

"Bang! Bang!"

Zhang Wuji kicked one with each foot, sending two Emei women flying, then flew toward the Heavenly Sword himself.

Yet the third Emei woman was Zhou Zhiruo, and Zhang Wuji was a beat too slow.

Zhou Zhiruo caught the Heavenly Sword, glanced at Zhang Wuji, then descended. From beginning to end, Zhang Wuji did not attack her.

Once she landed, Zhou Zhiruo's face flushed slightly. She wanted to head back, but Abbess Miejue stopped her.

Abbess Miejue pointed at her nose and angrily rebuked, "You, stab him with your sword!"

Chen Xiaofan sighed. He knew the plot had returned to its proper track.

In other words, though some details were slightly different, the overall direction remained the same.

Zhang Wuji had not attacked Zhou Zhiruo just now, and Abbess Miejue had seen it all. She had already guessed that this "Zeng Aniu" might be someone else.

Zhou Zhiruo stood frozen in place, seemingly hesitating.

"Did you not hear me? I told you to stab him with your sword!" Abbess Miejue spat out a mouthful of clotted blood and harshly scolded her!

Zhou Zhiruo froze. She was unwilling to attack Zhang Wuji.

Abbess Miejue shouted again, "You wretch!"

Zhou Zhiruo stood there. After a moment, she slowly walked toward Zhang Wuji.

From beginning to end, Zhang Wuji did not believe Zhou Zhiruo would truly stab him.

Their meeting by the water all those years ago, childhood sweethearts, two innocent children...

He had always carried that handkerchief on him.

"Squelch!"

Only when the sharp Heavenly Sword pierced into his bone marrow did he realize that, though he had swept through all opposition, he had ultimately lost.

On the Ming Cult's side, countless people sighed at the sight.

Over on the Six Major Sects' side, every face glowed with pride, their heads held high.

Having successfully inflicted severe wounds on Zhang Wuji, Zhou Zhiruo pulled the Heavenly Sword from his chest and turned to leave.

Zhang Wuji spat out a mouthful of blood, his face contorted in pain as he could not help dropping to his knees.

Zhou Zhiruo had only taken two steps back when, at that very moment, a sudden change erupted!

Abbess Miejue sprang up fiercely, her entire body like an arrow loosed from the bow. In an instant, she swept past Zhou Zhiruo, seized the Heavenly Sword from her hand, unleashed her overwhelming aura, and pointed the blade directly at the heavily injured Zhang Wuji!

"What!"

"This!"

"So fast!"

Countless members of the Ming Cult were shocked.

Abbess Miejue roared, "Boy, today I, Miejue, will cut you down!"

At that critical moment, Chen Xiaofan's eyelids twitched. His figure shot out, and in an instant, his full-mastery Nine Yang Divine Skill, full-mastery Yang God Nine Revolutions Art, and full-mastery Eighteen Dragon Subduing Palms all erupted at once. His aura towered like a mountain, surpassing the vast heavens!

He knew that he seemingly could no longer stand by and watch!
