Chapter 12: The Sword Energy Soars to the Sky (2)

No one expected that Yi Qianmo would stand so firmly against a skilled master; this master was the strongest in all of Green Cloud City.

In the eyes of ordinary people, he was almost like a god.

“Qianmo, take Lingyu and leave immediately.”

Yi Danian said while entangling both of them.

“Qianmo, you take Lingyu and go.” Yi Tianyu stepped forward and said, “I will buy you some time.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the remaining guards of the Yi family gathered around; these were all the elite nurtured by Yi Danian over the years.

“Hehe, a bunch of useless chickens think they can stop me. You little beast, you won’t escape today.”

Lei He took a step forward, and the true energy of a powerful master flowed out from him. The guards felt uncomfortable in their bodies; they couldn’t even muster the strength to move forward.

Yi Tianyu was about to act but was stopped by Yi Qianmo, whose Nine Yang True Qi surged. He said, “Grandpa, he is right. Even if we could escape the Yi family, we probably wouldn’t be able to leave Green Cloud City.

” Hearing this, Yi Danian suddenly understood something. He let out a bitter smile and said, “Well then, let’s fight to the death. My Yi family is not easy to bully. If you want to wipe out my entire Yi family, you will also have to pay a price!”

“Yi Danian, your sword skills are impressive, but you have just recently broken through. You aren’t qualified to challenge my Lei family.”

Lei Yuntian said.

“Prepare to die, you little beast!”

Lei He acted first; after entering the innate level, his true energy was solidified, ten times stronger than the energy of acquired masters.

He moved quickly, appearing in front of Yi Qianmo and reaching out to grab his neck with lightning speed, his hand infused with true energy.

Ordinary weapons could not break through this layer of protective energy. Moreover, Yi Qianmo was only at the peak of the acquired stage, which was still a level below. In terms of speed and strength, he was far weaker.

However, when his hand reached out to grab Yi Qianmo, a black sword suddenly lunged towards his hand.

Lei He was very surprised, not expecting Yi Qianmo’s speed to be just as fast as his.

His hand immediately shrank back half an inch, and he aimed a palm strike at the sword coming towards him, trying to knock it out of Yi Qianmo’s hand.

However, the black sword was very elusive, almost spinning in an instant.

Lei He’s palm, which was meant to hit the blade, found itself facing the sword’s edge instead.

While Lei He was shocked, he also felt a sense of danger and had to retract his hand.

But with that retreat, he realized he was completely on the defensive.

“Swish, swish, swish.”

Yi Qianmo’s sword was nearly invisible, darting around like a poisonous snake, with angles that were extremely tricky. No matter how he tried to dodge or counterattack, he couldn’t find a way to succeed.

After just a brief encounter, Lei He had already stepped back ten paces, but he knew that if he retreated any further, he would have nowhere left to go.

When the sword came at him, he did not step back. Instead, in an instant, he drew the sword from his waist and blocked it with one strike.

“Clang!”

The sound of metal striking metal echoed as the two swords clashed, sending sparks flying. Yi Qianmo’s sword movement was suddenly interrupted, and his hand holding the sword became instantly wet, feeling a sharp pain in his palm.

After retreating several steps, Yi Qianmo finally released the force from that strike and steadied himself, but he felt a salty taste in his mouth.

“Hiss!”

Everyone gasped, not because Lei He’s sword had pushed Yi Qianmo back several steps, but because Yi Qianmo had actually forced Lei He to use his sword.

“His power is surprisingly strong, to the point that in the Celestial Realm, he could fight against innate experts!”

“The gap between innate and acquired strength is well known. The Great Yi Sword Technique of the Yi family is truly magical, worthy of being close to the techniques of immortals. If Yi Qianmo continues to grow, who will be able to contain him in the future? The three people who were fighting also glanced over, and in Yi Danian’s eyes, besides surprise, there was also a hint of relief, but in the end, he seemed quite helpless.

“If my Yi family could have a few more gifted ones… sigh…” Yi Danian sighed in his heart.

Lei Yuntian and the black-clothed guest from the Lei family looked at each other with surprise, but what filled their eyes more was joy, for such power could only come close to the celestial beings.

This made them feel even more that this journey was worth it.

“Great, great, great! The Yu family is truly impressive. They said you have been their furnace for thirteen years, ruined your dantian, and drained your Nine Yang energy, but it turns out it was all a lie!”

Lei He’s shock in his heart far surpassed that of his father.

The clash of the swords just now made even his hands tingle. He knew he was using Innate True Qi, yet Yi Qianmo forced him to stumble back ten steps with his extraordinary swordsmanship, something that had never happened in Green Cloud City before.

“With Nine Yang True Qi, plus your swordsmanship, you truly have become a weapon. If Yi Tianyao knew, he might laugh himself back to life from his coffin.”

Lei He stared at him coldly and said, “It’s a pity you were born in the wrong place; go down and reunite with your father!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Lei He’s figure flashed, and Innate True Qi surged as he charged towards Yi Qianmo; this time he showed no mercy.

Facing the attacking Lei He, Yi Qianmo remained calm. He knew that with his current strength, he could only exchange a few blows with Lei He.

It was very difficult to challenge someone who was naturally strong.

But he felt no nervousness; instead, he gathered all his energy and drew it into his core, reflecting on the sword intent he had grasped over the past thirteen years.

Just then, a powerful pull suddenly came from his core, draining all his energy, including that in his core.

But at the moment his energy was drained, a surge of mighty sword energy erupted from his core, filling his limbs!

Normally, energy would need to be transformed into sword energy by someone naturally strong, but the Sword Pill absorbed the energy and directly transformed it into sword energy.

Almost at the same time, Lei He swung his sword down, aiming for Yi Qianmo’s shoulder, wanting to chop off an arm so he could no longer use his sword.

Yi Qianmo held his black sword horizontally, and with a “clang,” the two swords clashed again; the sound of metal striking metal made everyone around instinctively cover their ears.

“Kneel before me!”

Lei He stared at him coldly, his energy flowing into the sword, letting out an angry roar.

But Yi Qianmo did not kneel down; instead, he lifted his head, a soft white light glowing around him, and his deep-set eyes sparkled with silver light.

“The debt from thirteen years ago must be repaid!”

Yi Qianmo raised his head, his body shook, and he pressed down on Lei He’s sword but was immediately pushed back. “You, kneel before me!”

He swung his sword at Lei He, and the sword energy soared into the sky. The whole black sword turned white, revealing the purest sword energy, so pure that even the strongest masters could not create such purity.

“Clang!”

Lei He raised his hand to block; the swords clashed, and a terrifying force instantly shattered the energy on his sword, while the rushing sword energy invaded his body.

His protective energy was also broken in an instant.

“Thud.”

The sword energy made his legs tremble, and with a few cracking sounds, he knelt down on the ground.
