Powerful Reinforcements Have Arrived!
Feng Ji kicked Floating River Sword away, then stomped heavily on Sang Ying's hand and ground it into it.
Seeing the pain on Sang Ying's face, he finally smiled with satisfaction.
"Jimo Zanxing, so what if she's the eldest daughter of the Jimo Household? I still crushed her under my feet!" He raised his hand and wiped away the blood beads on his face, the wounds Sang Ying had left on him.
Remembering that this was the person in front of him who had hurt him time and time again, Feng Ji stomped even harder on Sang Ying's right hand.
He smiled and asked, "I wonder if a swordsman who has lost his right hand can still be considered a swordsman?"
Despite the pain, Sang Ying turned and looked directly at him. "As long as there is a sword, a swordsman will always be a swordsman."
"Is that so?" Feng Ji curled his lips, slowly raising the golden knife in his right hand. "Then how about I see it for myself?"
After saying that, the golden knife suddenly fell towards Sang Ying's right hand!
At that moment, Sang Ying seemed to hear many people calling her name, but she had no time to pay attention. The sharp blade fell inch by inch, seemingly about to sever her wrist completely in the next second!
But soon, the whereabouts of the golden knife were prevented.
A worn-out cloth shoe forcefully entered everyone's sight, and a gray figure recklessly emerged from the crowd, picked up the Floating River Sword that had been kicked away, and slammed it towards Feng Ji.
The blade was deflected, and Feng Ji, seeing the incoming spirit sword, had no choice but to twist and dodge.
Having already gathered her strength, Sang Ying seized the opportunity to stand up and, as Feng Ji raised his sword to block Floating River Sword, she gripped the hilt of her sword again.
Sang Ying raised her sword once again to meet the attack, even though the Qi Vortex between her brows had withered to the point that she could not draw out a single trace of Spiritual Qi, and even though her right hand was still in excruciating pain.
But every sword she swung landed squarely on Feng Ji's body.
Even Feng Ji was frightened by her ruthlessness.
Chen Liu, standing some distance away, raised his hand to press his wildly beating heart. He didn't know what had gotten into him before, that he had been so bold as to rush out.
Auntie Chen was still frantically calling for him to go back, but Chen Liu's legs were too weak to take a single step.
In the end, Green Vine pulled out a vine and dragged him back from the dangerous melee.
Seeing that he was unharmed, Auntie Chen was both relieved and scolded, "Are you crazy? How dare you throw a shoe at that Evil Cultivator leader? What would I do if he killed you?!"
Chen Liu shook his head. Although he was still a little scared, he didn't regret it at all. "The young lady saved me, I have to help her!"
He would never forgive himself if he just stood by and watched the young lady's hand be cut off.
Auntie Chen felt a mix of sadness and warmth in her heart at her son's words. She silently wiped away her tears. "So you're the only one who cares about the young lady? Why aren't you coming over to help the healer? Saving one more person is how we help the young lady!"
After glancing at Sang Ying one last time, Chen Liu quickly joined Auntie Chen in resuming the work of treating the wounded.
Aside from them, the other mortals were either helping to deliver pills or busy handing over Spirit Stone given by the steward to the cultivators who had retired to rest.
No one in the entire Jimo Residence was idle.
Knowing they had little ability, they only hoped to use their meager strength to provide Sang Ying with a little help.
They believed that Rizhao City could definitely be defended!
Sang Ying didn't know how many people had placed their hopes on her.
At this moment, she was simply relying on years of physical memory to swing the longsword again and again.
Gu Shu had given Sang Ying all the Spiritual Qi he could muster, but it still seemed insufficient.
After being knocked away once again, Sang Ying crashed heavily to the ground. But this time, she gritted her teeth and got back up.
Looking at the "blood-soaked man" in front of him, Feng Ji felt a sense of unease for the first time.
"Why fight so hard? Your mother has already left with her people, and the Jimo Household has abandoned this city. Why don't you surrender with the people in the city? Perhaps you can still have a chance to live!" After fighting for so long, Feng Ji was also exhausted.
Rather than continuing to entangle with Sang Ying, he would rather offer her some benefits to persuade her.
Unfortunately Sang Ying was a stubborn person. "I won't believe a single word you say."
Seeing her raise her sword again, Feng Ji grew somewhat annoyed. "Fine, since you're so reckless, I'll grant your wish!"
He hadn't originally intended to use this move; it was truly unprecedented for a Golden Core cultivator to force him into this situation.
If she weren't on the opposite side, Feng Ji would have genuinely wanted to bring her under his command.
What a pity!
Feng Ji sighed, and ominous black smoke continued to billow from the golden sword, seemingly accompanied by terrifying roars.
The black smoke transformed into the shape of a giant black dragon, hurtling towards Sang Ying and the Jimo Residence behind her with overwhelming force.
Sang Ying closed her eyes, and a huge ice wall gradually solidified, attempting to protect everyone, including the Jimo Residence.
"If this continues, you really will die." Gu Shu calmly stated Sang Ying's final fate.
She opened her eyes to find an ice wall already erected before her. "No, I will live to ascend!"
The black smoke suddenly crashed in, its terrifying force causing Sang Ying's internal organs to ache faintly.
She wiped the blood from her mouth and struggled to support herself against the ice wall.
"Stop struggling, the death of your Jimo Clan was already sealed!" Feng Ji's voice sounded somewhat distorted through a thick ice wall.
Sang Ying did not answer, because cracks had already spread across her ice wall.
The black smoke slowly dissipated, and its terrifying aura was completely neutralized.
Feng Ji strode over, wanting to see what miserable end Sang Ying would suffer. But to his surprise, the ice wall was still standing perfectly intact!
"Impossible! That's his most powerful move! "Feng Ji's face was filled with disbelief.
Fortunately, the ice wall shattered completely the next second.
Feng Ji breathed a sigh of relief and said that the other party was only at the Golden Core Realm.
Just as he was about to make a sarcastic remark, his gaze swept over the figure behind Sang Ying, and Feng Ji's attention was completely drawn to it.
The young man had long, flowing black hair. His beautiful features, inherited from the Jimo Household, were more wicked than Jimo Duange's, and less refined than Jimo Qing's.
He stood there behind Sang Ying, one hand resting steadily on the female cultivator's shoulder.
His eyes were fixed on Feng Ji, but he leaned down slightly and whispered in Sang Ying's ear, "Leave everything to your brother, rest assured."
After receiving this assurance, Sang Ying suddenly felt weak and fell back into the young man's arms.
The black-haired youth reached out and embraced Sang Ying, his usually unrestrained and arrogant eyes softening with tenderness. His movements were extremely gentle, as if he were afraid of waking the female cultivator in his arms.
However, when he looked up at Feng Ji again, Feng Ji felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar, his whole body chilled.
"Will the Jimo Household perish?" The young man tilted his head slightly. "Perhaps, but you probably won't live to see it."
He gave a smile, but countless sharp blades materialized out of thin air around him.
The next second, the screams of the Evil Cultivator echoed throughout the entire Rizhao City, while Sang Ying, lying in the young man's arms, had her ears gently covered by him.
A note from the author:
Ahem, I need to start revising the text, so there might only be two updates a day for the next few days. I'm so sorry, my darlings, I'll finish revising it as soon as possible!
Love you all~
