Xuanxia

Chapter 998 Unexpected Breakthrough
The battle at the gate of the Hell continues.

Ning Wuwang is very strong, so strong that it is beyond imagination.

For many, many years, everyone has judged him as gentle, gentlemanly, peaceful, and low-key. Even though he is respected as the owner of the Mingjian Pavilion's Pai Shu Building, he has always been behind the scenes and is far less powerful than Li Jingzhe. With his status, he would not participate in government affairs. The civil and military officials respect him more because of his identity as the son of Ning Baimei.

Even though he later surrendered to King Xishuo and broke through to Xuanxing, everyone only thought that he achieved this by relying on the ghost cultivation method that forced growth. In addition, he had not participated much in the war in the past three years, so... his presence was still weak.

Until now.

He strolled leisurely without even showing much difficulty on his face, but he had already injured three cave-sky warriors, making them unable to get up temporarily.

Changsun Jiansu had a solemn expression on his face, holding the Jianzhenqin and floating not far away, with melodious music constantly floating in the air.

She was not trying to attack Ning Wuwang, but to cover the departure of those Xuanmeng masters who had not yet reached the Cave Heaven Realm.

Those who have not broken through the cave sky do not have magical skills like the Northern Frontier’s military tactics. No matter how many people there are, they are no match for Xuan Xing.

The meaning of the piano turned into a river that flowed around, struggling to resist the colorful sword energy that continued to splash out from Ning Wuwang's body - but at least it did resist it.

After all, his target is not those of low realm.

As the third most important person in Mingjian Pavilion, he had handled a lot of intelligence.

He knew Shirakawa Masato very well - she wouldn't care about the life or death of some insignificant people.

Ning Wuwang waved his hand and blocked the spear that was stabbed at him by a powerful Xuanmeng Dongtian warrior. The whistling colorful sword energy swept back like a storm. This powerful warrior, who was considered a master in the martial arts world, was immediately covered in blood, with countless sword wounds bursting out of his body. He screamed in pain and flew backwards!

It's not just Ning Wuwang who is powerful, but also the sword techniques he uses!

The light is like a shadow sword.

The sword moves that Jiang Baichuan had only dreamed of, the sword moves that were created by Ning Baimei, are known as the strongest sword moves in the world together with the Qingxuhua Sword Technique of the Zhenxian Palace!

It seems to have thousands of changes, and yet seems to have no rules at all. Once the sword energy leaves the body, it begins to replicate itself. Once it touches the enemy's body, it will follow like a shadow and cannot be shaken off.

At the Xuanmeng Ceremony, Jiang Baichuan also used the Light-Splitting Sword, but that was not the "genuine version", but a deduction from the Righteous Sword, which still had some flaws. It was more domineering, crazier, and more dazzling.

The authentic sword technique used by Ning Wuwang is more elegant, more chic, and more... unstoppable.

"I can't understand."

On a high tower in the distance, Master Baihe sighed to himself: "How could there be such an amazing sword technique in the world?"

But just because she can't understand doesn't mean she can't beat him.

She had already decided to take action and was just waiting for the right opportunity.

Ning Wuwang has not killed anyone so far - not because he doesn't want to, but because he can't.

He was indeed very powerful. He could maneuver easily under the siege of dozens of Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses and seemed to have some strength left... Even Huijue and Jiang Baichuan seemed to have never achieved such performance.

But this does not mean that he can still kill people in this situation.

Master Baihe saw it clearly. Ning Wuwang was definitely not as relaxed as he appeared.

"Is he putting pressure on me in this way?"

She smiled coldly.

She tilted her head again and looked not far away - in the shadows of a street, a young man was supporting an old man and walking slowly towards them, looking at the direction of the battle from afar.

Those are Yue Heng and Yan Yidong.

They finally couldn't hold back any longer. The development of the situation was beyond their expectations, and they had to come out to take a look.

The battle between Ning Wuwang and a group of Cave Heaven Realm masters had a huge impact. In fact, the part of the Youyu Yamen that was exposed on the ground had already collapsed. The secret envoys and Xuanmeng masters had countless scars on their bodies just from escorting the captured men in black and protecting Changsun Jiansu's escape. Even the imperial guards and the patrol camp did not dare to stay here. They ran away very early, but no one knew where they went.

The surrounding streets were destroyed by the aftermath of their battle as if they were trampled by thousands of troops. As for the people inside?

As early as when those men in black besieged the Hell, the smarter people slipped away on their own...

Those who were not so smart had already fled when the situation escalated.

The chaos in the capital three years ago is still vivid in people's minds, and people will remember the lesson - in the aftermath of the battle between these masters, none of the houses are reliable.

"The situation has gone too far."

Yan Yidong frowned and said, "It's not necessary."

Yue Heng also sighed. He turned his head to look in the direction where Mingjian Pavilion had collapsed. His eyes passed over the low roofs on the street, but now the tall towers behind those roofs were gone.

He also guessed who had stopped Ning Wuwang before. But he also knew that it was meaningless for him to rush over... Li Jingzhe had already brought people with him, so what role could he, a civil servant with only five spiritual orifices, play?
"I'm afraid I can't wait any longer."

Yue Heng said softly: "The Imperial Guards and the Patrol Battalion have temporarily left, but they will not just run away like that... They must be going to prepare something to help Ning Wuwang."

"If Master Baihe doesn't take action, both the Xuanmeng and the Palm Sword Academy will suffer heavy casualties."

Yan Yidong remained silent.

Life is actually about making choices.

If we choose to take action now, our experts can be safe for the time being, but what is the price?

The other option is, needless to say, Ning Baimei, the great killer, continues to retreat and sleep, but his high-end combat power will inevitably be greatly reduced. It is hard to say how many people can escape from Ning Wuwang today...

"Alas, Fu Qingzhou, Ning Wushu, you guys didn't make it in time."

Yan Yidong sighed helplessly.

On the other side, the battle on the field finally underwent some changes—Ling Haojie actually broke through Ning Wuwang's dense web of sword energy!
It's not that he is extremely powerful, but before Master Baihe took action, there was someone who had been hiding in the dark and took action first.

True Man Jingming.

Although she had not yet reached the Xuanxing realm and no one knew where she had been hiding before, perhaps she, like Master Baihe, had been quietly waiting for Ning Wuwang's sword intent to show a flaw - at the critical moment, she swept her sword across, and a white light that was enough to melt everything shone from the sword...

Qingxu Sword Technique!

This sword finally tore a hole in Ning Wuwang's dense sword net.

At this moment, Ling Haojie happened to be at the edge of this opening. He, who also inherited the infinite Tai Chi Dao, turned into a soft stream of light, broke through in an instant, and slapped Ning Wuwang heavily on the chest!
"!!!"

Ning Wuwang's expression changed slightly.

He was not invincible. The reason he was able to keep so many Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses from getting close to him was, on the one hand, because of the power of the Light-Splitting Shadow Sword, and on the other hand, it was also because he had almost completely given up on defense and used all his cultivation to create the terrifying sword energy that was as fierce as a storm!
The moment the palm landed on his chest, his face turned pale, his body suddenly stepped back, and blood gushed out of his mouth and nose uncontrollably.

At this moment, the eyes of Master Baihe on the high tower lit up, and with a wave of her hand, the whisk rose up, and the powerful and domineering sword intent surrounded her. In an instant, she, who was originally inconspicuous, immediately turned into a shining star in the night sky!
Not only that……

Ning Wuwang raised his head.

After being hit by this palm, his terrifying Light Splitting Shadow Sword had too many flaws. For a moment, many Cave Heaven Realm experts broke through and attacked him. In addition to Master Baihe...

A smile appeared on his pale face.

In the distance, Yan Yidong sighed.

In another alley, Dong Qianran also sighed and silently grasped the Xian Sword.

Master Baihe, who was ready to attack, did not show any sign of relief on his face. Instead, he looked so solemn as if he was about to welcome death.

If you want to take action, you must kill Ning Wuwang as quickly as possible!

Otherwise, they will have to face Ning Wuwang and Ning Baimei at the same time!

If Ning Baimei was the only one, maybe... it wouldn't be completely impossible...

But at this moment, Ning Wuwang, who was ready to face all the hostility and attacks, suddenly changed his expression drastically!

The smile on his face disappeared instantly, and a faint light flashed in his pupils!
"Hui'er! Yao'er!"

In Ning Wuwang's pupils, time seemed to stand still, and the attacks from all directions were gradually slowing down.

Life is about constantly making choices.

Or, if we stay here, their plan will succeed with such violent and extreme execution, my father will come out, and we will win.

But... at what cost?

Or, leave immediately and save Huier and Yaoer.

At this time, should I make the choice as a son or as a father?

Ning Wuwang had no time to hesitate.

He chose to retreat.

When the attacks of those Cave Heaven Realm powerhouses came crashing down, they hit Ning Wuwang, but his figure shattered like a mirror, exploding into countless sword lights - that was not him, but just a sword shadow clone.

The real him disappeared the moment he decided to escape.
