Thus, the chase continued for a full hour. Suddenly, Ye Wushuang came to a halt on a branch protruding from an ancient tree. Li Jing, who had been pursuing him, stopped as well, looking at Ye Wushuang, who was now within arm’s reach. She sneered, “You little brat, why aren’t you running anymore? Have you been worn out by these mists and can’t run anymore?”
Ye Wushuang, however, smiled and said, “These mists not only slow down the circulation of one’s spiritual energy once inhaled, but they also block any attempts at detection.”
“We’ve come a hundred li deep into this place. I think it will take your partner quite a while to find you, don’t you think?”
Li Jing’s eyebrows furrowed. What did he mean by that?
Buzz…
The Tianya Sword appeared in Ye Wushuang’s hand. Looking at Li Jing, Ye Wushuang said calmly, “Now, I’m going to kill you.”
When Ye Wushuang’s words fell, Li Jing was taken aback. “You… you want to kill me?”
So shocked was she that her voice paused for a moment. This guy must have gone mad!
“You haven’t reached Wan Fa, and I’m at the sixth level of Wan Fa. You want to kill me?” Li Jing said incredulously. She truly thought Ye Wushuang had lost his mind.
But at that moment, Ye Wushuang said calmly, “What else can I do? I can’t shake you off, and you keep chasing me.”
“These mists have affected your spiritual energy circulation, I’m sure. But I’ve figured out how to deal with their damage. In other words, you, at the sixth level of Wan Fa, might not be able to exert your full strength because of the mists, while I am unaffected!”
Hearing this, Li Jing laughed again. It was said that Ye Wushuang had an incredibly strong talent and his strength was beyond comprehension. People like him were usually overly confident. Today, it seemed to be the case.
Even if she was affected by these strange mists and could only exert the power of the fourth or fifth level of Wan Fa, she was still far beyond what Ye Wushuang, at the peak of Tian Gang, could handle!
In just a moment, Li Jing realized something and sneered, “It seems that defeating Jiang Yihan and Ji Ou in the Spirit Sword Mountain has boosted your confidence a lot.”
“To be honest, in terms of talent, I do admit that I’m not as good as Ji Ou or Jiang Yihan. But… I’m thirty-two years old and at the sixth level of Wan Fa. I’m no ordinary genius!”
“Ye Wushuang, you will pay the price for your arrogance!”
Hearing this, Ye Wushuang shrugged. Was he arrogant?
If he didn’t stop and fight Li Jing to the death, would he just keep running from her? He would be caught sooner or later. It was better to take advantage of the situation here and settle the matter once and for all!
In reality, facing this woman at the sixth level of Wan Fa, Ye Wushuang himself was not entirely confident. After all, the gap in their levels was indeed significant—six levels! Even though he had figured out how to deal with the trouble caused by the strange mists during his escape, Li Jing was still affected by the mists and her strength was significantly weakened, but she was still at least at the fifth level of Wan Fa. There was no comparison between the two.
However, Ye Wushuang was never a coward. How could he know if he didn’t try?
Even if he was outmatched, he could still activate the primal power within the first level of the Nine-Heavens Spirit-Taming Pagoda. But it would come at the cost of his lifespan. He would only use it as a last resort.
“Ye Wushuang, since you’d rather die than hand over the Suanluo Spirit Fruit…”
Buzz…
In Li Jing’s hand, a slender sword suddenly appeared. The sword was less than three feet long, with an eerie green sword pattern covering its entire body. A faint, cold aura emanated from it, like a green, poisonous snake, exuding a chilling and terrifying aura.
Li Jing knew she was not a top genius. She had encountered too many true geniuses and prodigies within her clan. Those prodigies were all arrogant and had the capital to be so. But facing those prodigies, Li Jing, while respectful on the surface, was inwardly annoyed.
Now, facing Ye Wushuang, a peerless genius who could match those prodigies in her clan, Li Jing was even more infuriated by his counterattack! How dare he, just at the peak of Tian Gang, challenge her, who was at the sixth level of Wan Fa, to a fight to the death?
“Green Wave Kite Sword Technique!”
Without another word, Li Jing swung her sword, and the sword energy moved like a kite, light yet sharp.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh…
Hundreds of sword energies howled around Ye Wushuang’s body, like kites circling around him. Each sword energy was powerful enough to pierce through a warrior at the first or second level of Wan Fa. But as the sword energies approached Ye Wushuang’s body,
“Six-Pointed Star Kill!”
Ye Wushuang clenched his hand, and the Tianya Sword became one with him. The sword intent reached its perfect state and erupted…
