"Ye Qingxuan, what do we do now? So many Ironclad Wolf Demons that are impervious to blades and spears… Forget about us Martial Apprentices, even the Zhenkun Academy's Martial Master Realm experts might not be able to handle them, right?"
The round-faced girl watched the approaching wolf demons, her face turning pale.
Ye Qingxuan glanced at the exceptionally ferocious pack of demon wolves, unsure how to respond. Suddenly, her pupils constricted as she saw a wolf demon abruptly leap into the air, pouncing towards them.
The wolf demon's hill-like body instantly blocked the sunlight, shrouding everyone in a cloud of darkness.
"Crap, a demon wolf couldn't hold back and is attacking us! Everyone, use your strongest offensive techniques! We must repel this wave of attacks!"
Ye Qingxuan's expression was grave.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began to display their signature skills. In the next instant, powerful martial auras emanated from their bodies, appearing quite imposing.
However, these actions seemed insignificant to the wolf demons. A hint of disdain flashed in their scarlet eyes as they looked at the group, their gaze savage, as if looking at ants.
"You beast, eat my blade!"
Senior Brother Zhang, eager to show off in front of Ye Qingxuan, was the first to rush out, swinging his curved blade fiercely at the Ironclad Wolf Demon in front of him.
Senior Brother Zhang was a martial arts prodigy with Earth Rank talent, and his cultivation had already reached the seventh level of the Martial Apprentice Realm, the highest among them all.
This strike was powerful. After a dazzling flash of light, Senior Brother Zhang's curved blade slashed heavily at the wolf demon.
"That's the Barren North Zhang family's clan-protecting technique, the Asura Blade Sutra! As expected, it's powerful, worthy of being an Earth Rank technique."
"Even Zhenkun Academy wouldn't easily pass down such high-level techniques, right? Senior Brother Zhang is truly blessed!"
"The demon wolf's defense will definitely be broken this time!"
Seeing Senior Brother Zhang's strike, some exclaimed in surprise, some were envious, and others felt invigorated.
Even Ye Qingxuan's eyes lit up.
The Asura Blade Sutra was an extremely terrifying low-grade Earth Rank technique with astonishing power. When mastered to a small degree, it could even split a small mountain. Although Senior Brother Zhang's strike wasn't at that level, he should have at least grasped the basics. With this strike, he might be able to cleave open the Ironclad Wolf Demon's scales and severely injure it.
If that were the case, the wolf demons might choose to retreat out of fear of injury, and they could have a chance of survival.
Clang!
Under everyone's expectant gaze, the curved blade struck heavily against the wolf demon's scales. Sparks flew everywhere, but to everyone's horror, only a shallow white mark appeared on the wolf demon's scales, leaving it almost unscathed.
"This… how is this possible? Senior Brother Zhang's strike was so terrifying, yet it couldn't even cleave open the wolf demon's scales?"
"We're done for. We're all going to die here."
"I don't want to die! I haven't even held a girl's hand yet!"
Despair filled the eyes of the Zhenkun Academy students.
Senior Brother Zhang was also stunned in place.
He knew best the power of his strike. Even an extremely hard diamond could be cleaved open with it. Could it be that the wolf demon's scales were even harder than diamond?
"Senior Brother Zhang, be careful!"
Just as Senior Brother Zhang was in a daze, a cry of alarm suddenly rang in his ears. Senior Brother Zhang immediately came to his senses and saw the wolf demon had already leaped down from the air, slamming a claw towards his chest.
He hurriedly blocked with his blade, but was sent flying by the wolf demon's powerful force. He spat out a mouthful of blood and flew backwards, caught by a Zhenkun Academy student, preventing him from falling into the pack of demon wolves.
"Senior Brother Zhang, are you alright?"
Someone asked with concern.
"I… I'm fine. The scales on this demon wolf are too hard. Below the Martial Master Realm, I'm afraid only Sword Cultivators with the greatest killing power have a chance to break through."
Senior Brother Zhang's face was pale, and he spat out another mouthful of blood as he spoke.
"Sword Cultivators? But where would there be Sword Cultivators below the Martial Master Realm around here!"
A Zhenkun Academy student laughed miserably.
The Human and Demon Clans had recently agreed that humans could not act beyond their cultivation level, which meant that Martial Master Realm human experts could not attack the pack of demon wolves.
But the Demon Clan was naturally gifted. The Ironclad Wolf Demons weren't strong in other areas, but their defense was extremely high. Human martial artists below the Martial Master Realm couldn't even break their defenses. How could they fight?
As for Sword Cultivators?
There was a Sword Immortal Academy nearby, but they were all useless!
How could there possibly be any Sword Cultivators there?
The pack of demon wolves seemed to sense the fear of the group. A hint of ferocity flashed in the eyes of several of them. They lowered their bodies and suddenly leaped into the air, pouncing towards the group.
Looking at the ferocious, pouncing wolf demons, Ye Qingxuan's face turned pale.
In the end, she was just a girl. Faced with death, she felt immense fear!
"Audacious beasts, how dare you commit violence at the foot of my Sword Immortal Academy! Prepare to die!"
Just then, a clear, cold voice rang out. Accompanied by the sound of air being torn, two figures stood in front of Ye Qingxuan and the others.
Everyone was stunned, their gazes fixed on the newcomers. They discovered that it was a pair of young men and women.
The girl had long blue hair and wore a blue dress. Her face was exquisitely beautiful, and she held an ice-blue sword in her hand, with a strong surge of sword energy around her.
The boy was tall and extraordinary, with a worn black sword behind his back.
Looking at the girl's delicate and flawless face, everyone felt their hearts twitch violently.
Could there truly be such a beautiful person in this world?
Ye Qingxuan's appearance was already top-tier, captivating, but compared to the girl before them, she paled by three points.
And when everyone clearly saw the youth's jade-like handsome face, everyone's pupils shrank. Ye Qingxuan even said in surprise, "Xiao Chen?"
The people who had come to the rescue were none other than Xiao Chen and Lin Qingxian.
The attacking Ironclad Wolf Demon, seeing the sudden appearance of humans, hurriedly changed direction in the air, forcibly stopping its attack. After landing, it warily watched Xiao Chen and Lin Qingxian.
These two people had an aura that made them extremely fearful and hateful.
These two were Sword Cultivators!
Damn Sword Cultivators!
Hearing that familiar soft and sweet voice, Xiao Chen turned his gaze and noticed the beautiful figure in the crowd. His expression immediately changed.
"Why is this woman here?"
He only knew that the villagers were surrounded by wolf demons; he didn't know that Ye Qingxuan was also here.
However, with just a faint glance, Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze.
Although he had been extremely infatuated with Ye Qingxuan in the past, that was all in the past. Ever since the day he dissolved the engagement with Ye Qingxuan, he had severed all ties with this woman in his heart!
Seeing Xiao Chen so indifferent to her, Ye Qingxuan suddenly felt a very uncomfortable feeling in her heart, as if she had been pricked by a needle, a faint pain!
He used to be so excited to see her that he would almost die, but now he didn't even have the interest to say a word?
Even if they had dissolved their engagement, after so many years of affection, did they have to be so estranged?
And how could there be such a beautiful girl beside him? Could there be something between them?
Heh!
He couldn't wait to get together with other women as soon as they dissolved the engagement?
Was all his past affection fake?
"Xiao Chen, what are you doing here, you good-for-nothing? Are you here to die?"
Seeing that Ye Qingxuan kept staring at Xiao Chen as soon as he appeared, Senior Brother Zhang's eyes immediately spewed fire.
