Xuanyuan Dapan grew solemn as well. He could tell that Xuanyuan Jingcheng seemed to be breaking through to the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm, so he snorted and said, "All of you, attack! Whoever kills the people in that courtyard can go to the Wondering Pavilion."
As soon as Xuanyuan Dapan finished speaking, more than a dozen figures leaped over the courtyard wall. Most of them rushed toward Wang Yue and Xuanyuan Jingcheng, but a few still headed for Xuanyuan Qingfeng and her mother.
"How shameless! You're even picking on women!"
Seeing this, Wen Hua drew his wooden sword and stood in front of Xuanyuan Qingfeng and her mother. With the full force of the Dugu Nine Swords' intent, he stopped several of the people in the lead and sent them reeling back.
Jiang Ni's expression changed too. She held her divine talisman and shielded Pei Nanwei, using her still-unpracticed Tai Chi Swordplay to repeatedly drive back the Huishan experts surrounding them.
Sweet Potato knew they couldn't afford to drag this out any longer. Following the moves Wang Yue had taught her, she fiercely traced several strokes through the air. A Coiled Dragon Divine Formation trapped Xuanyuan Dapan, and the Great River Sword Intent followed, striking at the experts who had rushed in.
In the blink of an eye, all a dozen people who had charged in first had fallen. Not one of them remained standing, and the battle stalled.
Of course, more than half of them had been killed by Jiang Ni. Her Tai Chi was still unpracticed, so after deflecting a few attacks, she switched to Shu Mountain Swordplay.
Shu Mountain Swordplay was extraordinarily powerful and best suited to fighting multiple opponents. With Jiang Ni guarding the front, she truly seemed like one warrior holding a pass against ten thousand.
