The Unparalleled Sword Emperor

Chapter 871 - 869: Yuan Qing, Old Dog!

Chapter 871: Chapter 869: Yuan Qing, Old Dog!Murong Xu, in a sorry state, was sent tumbling backward, a fresh trickle of blood oozing from her shoulder and staining her white robe crimson.

Upon landing, Murong Xu glared fiercely at Lin Bai and said with a cold snort, "I refuse to believe you really dare to kill me today! Do you understand the consequences of killing me?"

Lin Bai advanced step by step with his sword in hand, his voice cold as he said, "What should I be afraid of?"

"As for the consequences? Haha, it doesn’t matter anymore. After all, killing one is murder, and killing two is still murder!"

"It’s all the same!"

Lin Bai’s eyes hardened, and he struck viciously at Murong Xu with his sword.

This sword was aimed directly at Murong Xu’s throat, intending to take her life.

Suddenly, panic surged across Murong Xu’s face; she could clearly feel that Lin Bai’s sword was thrust with the intent to kill her!

"My father is Murong Hai, the Vice Dean of the Sword Art Academy!" Murong Xu shouted loudly.

Lin Bai scoffed and said, "I know! Are these your last words? Then we’ll meet in the next life."

Hum—

The sword aura reached the heavens, the chill piercing to the bone!

Murong Xu, seeing that Lin Bai did not stop his sword at the mention of her father’s name, understood that Lin Bai was beyond the point of withdrawing his attack!

"Damn it!"

Murong Xu cursed under her breath, her expression growing ruthless as she bit the tip of her tongue and sprayed a mouthful of blood onto her longsword.

Immediately following her recitation of a spell, a surge of blood-red glow enveloped her entire body.

Whoosh—

Just as Lin Bai’s sword was about to pierce Murong Xu, her figure transformed into a streak of blood-light, shooting straight out of Shadow Mountain Residence No. 81.

"Escape Technique?"

Lin Bai watched the streak of blood-light zoom past him, and immediately spun around to pursue with the Feng Lei Divine Wings.

"Where do you think you’re going!"

Lin Bai and Murong Xu’s streaks of light chased and battled each other across Shadow Mountain.

"Who dares to engage in a duel on Shadow Mountain? Are they not afraid of Elder Yuan Qing’s punishment?"

"My God, what incredible speed!"

"Yes, indeed. The movement techniques they are using are all Heaven-level Martial Skills!"

"Incredible, I never thought a fight would break out on Shadow Mountain so quickly!"

As Lin Bai pursued Murong Xu, many warriors on Shadow Mountain noticed their traces.

Beneath Shadow Mountain lay a row of exquisite wooden houses, one of which was Yuan Qing’s residence!

As the guardian of Shadow Mountain, Yuan Qing lived there year-round, safeguarding the safety of Shadow Mountain’s disciples.

At this moment, Murong Xu was fleeing from Shadow Mountain and heading straight for Yuan Qing’s home.

Looking back and seeing Lin Bai still in hot pursuit, Murong Xu’s complexion turned even paler.

Just now, by forcibly using a Lower Grade Divine Power to escape, she had consumed her life force and vital energy, and her body was already grievously wounded!

"Elder Yuan Qing, save me!"

Spotting Yuan Qing’s residence not far ahead, Murong Xu yelled out in a loud, urgent cry.

At the moment, Yuan Qing was sitting cross-legged in his room practicing sword skills. Hearing the shout, his expression suddenly grew solemn as he said, "That sounds like Murong Xu’s voice, doesn’t it?"

"What? Is there some reckless fool on Shadow Mountain brazen enough to attack Murong Xu?"

Yuan Qing opened his eyes, sheathed his Treasure Sword, and stepped out of his residence!

Hearing Murong Xu’s cries for help, Lin Bai’s eyes flashed, and spiritual power surged within him as he delivered a fierce sword strike towards Murong Xu.

Spurt!

A sword struck Murong Xu’s back, sending her flying forward and crashing heavily to the ground.

"Leave your life behind!"

Lin Bai’s figure flashed, rushing directly towards Murong Xu’s back.

In an instant, Lin Bai thrust his sword towards Murong Xu’s throat!

"Stop!"

"How dare you!"

At that moment, Elder Yuan Qing had just stepped out of his residence and, taking a closer look, saw Murong Xu beaten out of shape, covered in blood, with numerous sword marks on her body, and was currently bleeding profusely.

Then, Elder Yuan Qing saw Lin Bai ferociously thrusting his sword towards Murong Xu’s neck, attempting to deliver a killing blow.

The sight was so frightening that it made Elder Yuan Qing’s hair stand on end.

Murong Xu was the beloved daughter of the Vice Dean of the Sword Art Academy, and if she died on Shadow Mountain, Elder Yuan Qing feared that he wouldn’t be able to escape the consequences!

Elder Yuan Qing’s eyes revealed shock and horror as he took decisive action. His longsword unsheathed, a sword qi that could destroy heaven and earth struck Lin Bai’s Qingge Sword, and simultaneously sent Lin Bai flying back, landing a hundred meters away.

And in that instant, Elder Yuan Qing appeared in front of Murong Xu, protecting her.

Upon seeing Elder Yuan Qing take action, Murong Xu immediately said, "Elder Yuan Qing save me, he’s trying to kill me!"

Elder Yuan Qing said with a solemn expression, "Nephew, do not worry. As long as I am here today, no one can kill you!"

After speaking, Elder Yuan Qing angrily raised his head to look at the man he had just repelled with a sword strike and exclaimed in surprise, "Lin Bai!"

Lin Bai smirked coldly, "Elder Yuan Qing!"

Elder Yuan Qing said in anger, "Lin Bai, do you know the rules of the Miracle Ridge, Shadow Mountain forbids any disciple from engaging in blood battles, is what you did today a

And now that Lin Bai had called Yuan Qing an old dog, was he not afraid that Elder Yuan Qing would get angry and kill him right there and then?
