The sounds of fighting echoed throughout the mountains and forests, as a fierce battle raged between the martial arts world and the imperial court.
Although the women of Cihang Jingzhai all possessed profound martial arts skills and their individual strength far surpassed that of the soldiers.
However, the soldiers brought by the Yuwen Family were no pushovers either. They were all skilled in martial arts, fully armored, and proficient in battle formations.
With their coordinated efforts, the situation on the battlefield became one-sided in just the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.
In martial arts battles compared to military clashes, one is always at a disadvantage.
The only place where Fan Qinghui, Yuwen Huaji, and the other two had the upper hand online was the battlefield.
Despite needing to be distracted by the unseen Grandmaster, Fan Qinghui was still able to withstand the combined attack of Yuwen Huaji and Yuwen Shang, and even subtly suppress the two of them.
The power of Grandmaster is evident.
" Yuwen Family, we have no past grievances or recent feuds with you. If you continue fighting, aren't you afraid of my future retaliation?"
Seeing her disciples being defeated and many of them captured or killed, Fan Qinghui was extremely anxious.
Forced to abandon his Grandmaster facade, he resorted to threats.
If a Grandmaster- level expert is truly determined to assassinate you, unless you are of the same level, you absolutely cannot stop them.
Fan Qinghui is the true pillar of Cihang Jingzhai. Even if the entire Cihang Jingzhai is slaughtered, as long as she is alive, Cihang Jingzhai can be revived.
On the contrary, a family like the Yuwen Family, if they put their mind to it, could truly be wiped out and their entire clan exterminated.
Fan Qinghui was confident that even if the other party had an unknown Grandmaster backing them up, it would be the same.
Speaking of Grandmaster, she has many powerful backers. If you anger her, the retaliation afterward is something that no single family or clan can withstand.
Unfortunately, Yuwen Huaji and his companion remained silent in the face of his threats, instead focusing their inner energy on relentlessly attacking her.
Stubborn to the end!
After dodging several fierce attacks from the two, Fan Qinghui was also enraged and decided to stop holding back.
He devoted himself wholeheartedly to fighting the enemy and unleashed the full power of the Stop War Swordsmanship.
A long Eternal Dragon, wielded like a dragon, appeared and disappeared in an instant, wounding Yuwen and his companion.
Realizing they could not defeat their opponent, Yuwen and his companion ceased their insistence and prepared to call for reinforcements.
Yuwen Shang used all his strength to force back Fan Qinghui's sword attack, then knelt down with a thud and shouted:
"We beg the Heavenly Venerable to intervene; Yuwen is incompetent and unable to subdue the opponent."
Upon hearing this, Fan Qinghui did not seize the opportunity to launch an attack, but instead quickly withdrew her attack to defend herself.
Someone who could make the Yuwen Family kneel down and beg for help must be a formidable enemy.
"Sigh~"
"As expected, the gap between Grandmaster and a non- Grandmaster is too great. Even with just the two of you, it's barely enough."
A male voice came from afar, Fan Qinghui immediately felt an invisible energy sweeping towards her.
'Spiritual energy! It truly is the Demon Sect!'
She quickly activated the Cihang Sword Canon's inner power, unleashing all her Grandmaster -level might in preparation for resistance.
Unfortunately, this was a futile attempt, like a mayfly trying to shake a tree.
While both are forms of spiritual energy, Xu Xiao's Telekinesis is a tangible force, unlike the mental attacks of the Demon Sect that only affect the mind.
The overwhelming Telekinesis attacked from all directions with irresistible force, instantly injuring Fan Qinghui.
Blood was flowing from her mouth and nose, her whole body was being squeezed, and her pretty face turned pale.
Not only that, but an invisible Telekinesis directly restricted her movements, and a power penetrated deep into her body, surveying her surroundings before finally stopping at her Baihui point.
"Tsk tsk! Not bad, you've already formed Sea of Consciousness. Grandmaster are indeed different."
"What's even more remarkable is that at such an advanced age, her body is no different from that of a young girl; she is still a virgin."
Xu Xiao appeared before them as if he had teleported, a teasing expression on his face:
" Fan Qinghui, it seems that your relationship with Song Que back then was just a platonic one?"
"You!!" Fan Qinghui was both ashamed and angry that her secret had been revealed in public like this.
However, the moment Xu Xiao appeared, she also took a closer look at Xu Xiao.
'With a handsome face and surrounded by immense spiritual energy, this person must be a Grandmaster of psychic abilities!'
'His eyes gleam with divine light, and his body radiates vitality; he doesn't seem to follow the path of practicing evil martial arts. So why is he so young?'
Grandmaster's eye is sharp; Fan Qinghui recognized many things from Xu Xiao with just one glance.
Most importantly, she didn't know the other party at all, nor did she know what methods they used.
"What do you mean, Master Fan? I never expected you to be so well-preserved at your age. You truly delight me!"
Xu Xiao, however, did not have the air of a master at all. He was more like one of those flower thieves in the martial arts world, staring intently at Fan Qinghui.
A pair of eyes swept up and down her body, as if they had seen everything about her. (In fact, it Divine Sense.)
"You... shameless! Grandmaster like yourself, how dare you humiliate me like this! Give me a quick death!"
Fan Qinghui felt a chill run down her spine under Xu Xiao's gaze, and a bad feeling made her say she wanted to die.
"Feeling good? It will certainly feel good, but not now. We'll have to wait until we get back home tonight."
Xu Xiao made no attempt to hide his desires, his words full of flirtation.
"You!" Fan Qinghui was so angry that she almost fainted.
However, as the abbot of Cihang Jingzhai, she was no ordinary person. After adjusting her mood slightly, she began to ask Xu Xiao.
"May I ask which sect or school you belong to, and why you would like to be an enemy of Cihang Jingzhai?"
"Because I like it, it's that simple, isn't that enough?"
Xu Xiao chuckled and then pulled Fan Qinghui to his side.
One hand had already reached up to the other person's buttons, slipped inside, and pulled out the secret manual the other person always carried.
The most essential and crucial parts of the " Cihang Sword Canon " were carried and kept by the master himself.
This part has always been passed down orally from the head monk to the next head monk, and it is not included in the written transmission of the Cihang Sword Canon.
Unfortunately, under Xu Xiao's Divine Sense, such concealment was completely useless.
"You came for the ' Cihang Sword Canon '?" Fan Qinghui's tense body relaxed, and then a mocking smile appeared on her lips:
"Don't you know that only women can cultivate the Cihang Sword Canon?"
"Besides, you have already reached the Grandmaster level, so using this martial art will not be of much benefit to you."
"Yes and no."
"Besides the ' Cihang Sword Canon,' I came here primarily to wipe out all of you political prostitutes in one fell swoop."
"Your actions have annoyed me, and that's why I'm dealing with you."
Xu Xiao smiled, then directly sealed Fan Qinghui's dantian and Sea of Consciousness, binding her tightly.
After that, a thorough search was conducted on Cihang Jingzhai. With Xu Xiao's Divine Sense guiding them, no disciple escaped, and no secret manual could be hidden.
