Saving Two Great Gods

The swordsman in blue and the swordsman in white had been fighting for nearly fifteen minutes, the commotion they caused was like the sky collapsing and the earth cracking.

Within at least a hundred-meter radius, it was not much different from the end of the world.

Although Han Fei watched with great interest, he found it difficult to discern the movements of the two.

Taking a deep breath, the Power of Heavenly Dao circulated, and a small Tai Chi symbol appeared on his forehead.

Instantly, the movements of the two slowed down, at least several times slower. At this point, Han Fei could finally see their actions clearly, as well as the power they used, their cultivation methods, and even their entire meridians.

Han Fei could see which meridians the Spiritual Energy circulated through, which acupoints it passed, and the cultivation method. At this moment, Han Fei's eyes were like X-rays.

"Huh? What is this power? It's not spiritual energy, nor is it qi. I've never seen this kind of energy."

On the weapons of both individuals, there was a special energy body attached, different from Spiritual Energy.

Spiritual Energy could be seen with the naked eye, but this power was formless, yet carried sharpness, making their moves even more fierce.

Chiyou said, "This is the Power of Will. For swordsmen, it's called Sword Intent, and for swordsmen, it's called Blade Intent. It's the entry-level stage of enlightenment. Comprehending Sword Intent allows your will to slowly merge with the sword. You understand the sword's thoughts, and the sword can understand your intentions. This is the so-called Sword Intent."

Han Fei: "Wouldn't it be simpler and easier to understand if you said 'man and sword as one'?"

Yellow Emperor: "True 'man and sword as one' is still a long way off. Sword Intent is just the entry-level stage for swordsmanship. To put it bluntly, you don't even understand what a sword is yet. Of course, comprehending Sword Intent is simple, but achieving what you call 'man and sword as one' is difficult. You currently have no hope."

Han Fei retorted: "Why no hope? What am I lacking?"

The Yellow Emperor chuckled: "For 'man and sword as one,' the sword used must at least be a Houtian Spirit Treasure. Your sword has no Weapon Spirit, how can it become one? Do you think you've reached the pinnacle of the sword path, the realm of 'no sword is better than a sword'?"

Han Fei: "..."

Hongjun: "Group owner, stay away from them."

Han Fei: "Huh?"

Just then, a violent sound echoed in the sky above the plain, and a fierce surge of energy slammed into the ground.

Han Fei was less than a hundred meters away from the battle, and the Spiritual Energy explosion from their clash spread out. Han Fei happened to be on the edge of the Spiritual Energy shockwave.

Boom! Han Fei was sent flying more than ten meters and fell to the ground, losing consciousness.

Late at night, Han Fei gradually regained consciousness and suddenly sat up, looking around. He was still in the place where he had been knocked unconscious.

Fortunately, the battle between the two great experts during the day had scared away all the demonic beasts in the vicinity, and they had all fled in disarray.

Shaking his head, Han Fei's consciousness gradually returned: "Where are those two experts?"

Chiyou: "Dead."

Han Fei was stunned: "What?"

Chiyou: "Even if they're not dead, they're no threat for the time being. I suggest you go over and kill them. As you said, robbing is the fastest way to get rich."

The other ancient gods remained silent, as they had all witnessed countless deaths.

Han Fei stood up and walked to the edge of the plain, where he saw a huge, shocking pit.

The pit was four to five meters deep and twenty to thirty meters in diameter. Within the pit, the two great experts lay unconscious.

It was clear that their final move had inflicted internal injuries on both of them, causing them to fall unconscious on the spot.

Chiyou: "Take your sword and strike each of them once. That's it. Don't hesitate!"

Han Fei took a deep breath and shook his head, saying, "No, I won't hesitate to kill those who harbor killing intent towards me. But for those who have no killing intent towards me, or have nothing to do with me, how can I kill them? I'm not a cold-blooded animal."

Chiyou: "A woman's thinking."

Han Fei nodded: "Perhaps."

Saying that, he walked alone into the pit and looked at the two men, half of whose bodies were buried in the soil. Han Fei activated the Power of Heavenly Dao and observed their injuries.

Their internal Spiritual Energy was terribly chaotic, a typical case of extreme mutual destruction.

He reinserted the Broken Sword into the Sword Sheath and took out several pills, giving them to the two men.

Blood Recovery Pills, Spirit Recovery Pills, and Healing Medicine.

Han Fei didn't know if these pills, meant for low-level Martial Artists like himself, would have any effect on these two divine beings.

The man in white, who took the pill first, woke up first. Seeing Han Fei feeding medicine to the man in blue, he said weakly, "Little brother, help me kill him. He's from the evil sect, Asura Hall. Kill him."

At this moment, the man in blue weakly laughed, tilting his head back: "Haha, evil sect? What is righteous? What is evil? Bai Ruoyan, can you tell the difference?"

Han Fei said, "I don't know anything about Asura Hall or evil sects. You are both seniors to me. Since neither of you can defeat the other, I think it's best to let it go."

Saying that, Han Fei picked up the man in blue and prepared to leave the pit.

The man in white, addressed as Bai Ruoyan, asked in confusion: "What are you doing?"

Han Fei whispered, "To prevent you two from fighting again, I'll separate you. Senior Bai, please stay here for a while. I'll take him away first, and then I'll come back to bring you."

Han Fei carried the man in blue all the way, heading west.

It must be said that Han Fei's actions completely stunned the two great experts.

Along the way, the man in blue couldn't help but suppress his laughter: "Little brother, I really don't understand this move of yours. Whose side are you on? Are you from my Asura Hall?"

Han Fei shook his head: "I am a disciple of the Tianyuan Divine Sect."

Upon hearing this, the man in blue laughed even harder: "Then do you know who that person was just now? He is a master from your Tianyuan Divine Sect, known as the Tianyuan Prodigal, Bai Ruoyan."

Han Fei was taken aback. He had indeed heard of the Tianyuan Prodigal, the son of the previous Sect Master and the junior disciple of Sect Master Qi Xiaotian. However, he had been out of the public eye for many years, reportedly gathering information on heretical sects.

Seeing Han Fei fall silent, the blue-clothed expert asked with great interest, "So? Are you still planning to save me?"

Han Fei replied, "Even if everything you said is true, so what? Even if you are a bad person, you haven't harmed me. Your 'badness' existed before I saved you. At least so far, I haven't felt any killing intent from you."

The blue-clothed man shook his head helplessly. "I've lived for over a hundred years, and this is the first time I've met someone like you. You kid, you really suit my taste. Do you know the consequences you'll face back at the sect if you save me?"

Han Fei shook his head. "I haven't thought about it, nor am I interested. You might not believe me, but I've always acted according to my own thoughts. It's like that with everything."

The blue-clothed man praised, "That way of living is also good. You look about twenty years old, but what you say doesn't sound like it comes from someone your age."

Han Fei followed the small river downstream, leaving the blue-clothed man by the riverbank. At the same time, under Fuxi's guidance, he set up some simple formation arrays before preparing to leave.

The blue-clothed man said, "Young man, may I know your name?"

Han Fei paused, saying without turning back, "I don't think that's necessary, is it? This is the first time we've met today, and we might never meet again. It's better not to know each other."

The blue-clothed man smiled. "What? What are you afraid of?"

Although he knew the blue-clothed man was using a provocation tactic, Han Fei hesitated for a moment before softly saying, "Han Fei."

The blue-clothed man watched Han Fei's retreating back, a smile appearing on his face. "What an interesting young man."

He circulated the Spiritual Energy in his chest, beginning to heal his injuries. He had to regain the ability to move independently before he could open his storage ring and take out the Healing Medicine.

On the other side, Bai Ruoyan was doing the same thing. However, before he could regain his ability to move, Han Fei returned.

Bai Ruoyan angrily shouted, "Are you also from the Asura Hall? If so, just kill me."

Han Fei didn't speak. Instead, like the blue-clothed man, he picked up Bai Ruoyan and walked away.

An hour later, at the bottom of a cliff, Han Fei set Bai Ruoyan down.

Along the way, Bai Ruoyan had asked Han Fei many questions, none of which Han Fei answered. He was contemplating whether to be honest with Bai Ruoyan.

After setting Bai Ruoyan down, Han Fei said softly, "Disciple Han Fei, Core Disciple of Inner Court Class 88."

Bai Ruoyan was stunned. "You're from the Tianyuan Divine Sect?"

Then, Bai Ruoyan became furious. "Are you stupid? The Blue Demon is one of the ten great experts of the Asura Hall, and you just let him go. Do you know how many Tianyuan Divine Sect disciples he will kill?"

Han Fei retorted instead of answering, "If I hadn't appeared, what would have happened to the two of you? Could you have killed him?"

Bai Ruoyan: "You..."

Yes, if Han Fei hadn't been there, what would have been the outcome for him and the Blue Demon? They probably would have both died, or whoever was luckier would have recovered their strength first and killed the other.

Han Fei shook his head. "Senior Bai, holding onto grudges too tightly can make you lose yourself. Your combat strengths were almost equal. The only outcome would have been mutual destruction. That's why I stopped you both. While I saved him, I also saved you. If you wish to punish this disciple, I will accept the punishment when we return to the sect."

With that, Han Fei got up and left, leaving Bai Ruoyan somewhat stunned.
