"Thud."
"Thud."
Two heavy objects hit the ground, one after the other.
Two heads flew into the air.
Blood sprayed out like pillars, instantly covering the ground.
The two death warriors were dead beyond doubt.
The gleaming blades they had been clutching were also broken in two, falling weakly to the ground.
Xiao Tianci casually swung the intact branch in his hand and let out a breath of relief.
Luckily, I arrived in time.
If I had been one step later, this would have become a knot in my heart.
"Fourth, Fifth, how are you?"
Inside the room, a death warrior's hoarse voice sounded, carrying a trace of doubt.
Clearly, the shout of "Who is it?" from Fourth and Fifth outside had alerted the three men inside as well.
That was why they all spoke up.
But obviously, the people outside could no longer answer them.
After waiting several breaths and seeing that it remained quiet outside with no reply, the three death warriors exchanged glances.
Each of them saw the gravity in the others' eyes.
If Fourth and Fifth did not answer, there was only one possible outcome.
"Help!"
Xiao Yu saw what was happening as well.
Hope suddenly burst forth in her eyes. Then, the moment the three death warriors were distracted, she shouted toward the window.
"The Jialie Clan is trying to take me away! Save me!"
However, the moment Xiao Yu's voice reached the walls, it was blocked by an invisible barrier. Not a single sound escaped.
The nearest black-clad man no longer hesitated. He raised his hand and struck Xiao Yu across the neck.
Xiao Yu's body immediately went limp and collapsed to the ground.
Her mind was hazy. Although she still retained a sliver of consciousness, she had no strength left in her body and could not even speak.
After stripping Xiao Yu of her ability to act, the three black-clad men quickly gathered together.
"Ambush him at the door. Act on my signal!"
The three death warriors of the Jialie Clan could not understand why what should have been a sure thing had encountered so many twists and turns.
Just then, footsteps sounded outside.
They were not light. Rather, the person outside had no intention of concealing them.
Naturally, the three men heard them immediately.
They held their breaths and listened carefully to the footsteps outside.
At last, the footsteps stopped at the door.
Dense killing intent surfaced in the eyes of the three Jialie Clan experts, their hands already resting on their sword hilts.
The instant that person opened the door, they would draw their blades and strike without hesitation!
"If you don't come out, I'll call for help. By then, I'm afraid you won't have any chance left."
Xiao Tianci stopped at the door and casually called into the room.
Through his spiritual sense, he could easily detect the movements of the three death warriors inside.
And Xiao Yu was right beside them.
Worried that the three men might drag Xiao Yu down with them in desperation, Xiao Tianci spoke up.
Although none of the three were weak, and the strongest leader had even reached the level of a nine-star Dou Shi, Xiao Tianci was still confident he could kill them all with a single sword strike.
But Xiao Yu was inside.
Therefore, Xiao Tianci did not want even the slightest accident to occur.
The three men exchanged glances.
A trace of temptation appeared in one of their eyes.
Judging by his voice, the person outside was quite young, so his cultivation was likely not strong.
However, the leader's cold glare immediately pulled him back to reality.
"Huff."
A nearly inaudible breath came from within the room.
Yet the three men's grips on their swords tightened further, their fingertips turning pale.
Noticing their movements, Xiao Tianci's lips curled into a cold smile.
These three Jialie Clan experts were truly delusional. Even now, they still wanted to launch a sneak attack.
Three breaths passed in an instant.
When the third breath ended—
The three men inside suddenly erupted into action!
Bang!
The sturdy door was smashed apart with ease.
Three figures and three swords shot toward Xiao Tianci outside the door with lightning speed.
"Blood Moon Kill!"
"Gale Slash!"
"Berserk Sword!"
As battle qi surged, the sword winds became incomparably sharp!
Piercing whistles split the air.
The three men had clearly worked together for a long time, and their coordination was flawless.
Their three fierce combat techniques instantly enveloped Xiao Tianci's entire body.
They even vaguely sealed off his retreat.
The power of these three joining forces was enough to trouble even someone who had just entered the Da Dou Shi realm. One careless move could result in severe injury!
Feeling the three fierce combat techniques closing in on him, the cold smile on Xiao Tianci's lips grew even wider.
He raised his arm level, and the plain branch was held before him.
At the sight of that branch, disdain appeared in the eyes of the three Jialie Clan experts.
"Die!"
"This is my first time using the Great River Sword Intent against people. You should feel honored."
Xiao Tianci's cold voice sounded beside their ears.
"Great River Sword Intent, sword unleashed—Heaven Opener!"
An utterly chilling sword intent suddenly erupted from the ordinary branch.
Under that sword intent, it seemed as though heaven and earth themselves were about to be cleaved in two!
The branch swept through the air, vaguely trailing a flash of silver light.
A sword cry suddenly rang out!
The three men's bodies were severed directly into two halves in midair.
The wounds were as smooth as mirrors!
After killing the three men, the sword intent shot skyward without weakening in the slightest.
A dark cloud in the sky split down the middle, leaving behind a thin line!
At that moment, everyone in Wutan City could not help but shudder.
They felt as though something had swept across their bodies.
Fear appeared on many faces.
"What powerful sword intent!" Yao Lao's somewhat illusory figure could not help appearing from the ancient ring, his face filled with shock.
He had already lost count of how many times he had been astonished.
Under such sword intent, he felt as if even his soul body might be cleaved in two!
Xiao Yu also regained much of her consciousness because of the Great River Sword Intent.
She struggled to open her eyes.
By the moonlight, she saw a strange yet vaguely familiar figure walking away in the distance.
"Xiao Tianci?"
She murmured the name softly.
