After the Liu sisters escaped from the Wushen Jue Palace, they hadn't even run two miles when they saw torches rising all around them, and a large number of martial artists were closing in from three directions.
Clearly, Jue Tian was prepared; they were already trapped in an encirclement.
"Sister?" Liu Sheng Piaoxu looked at Liu Sheng Xueji.
Yagyu Yukihime calmly said, "Proceed according to plan! Be careful, as long as we don't fall into a trap, there's nothing to be afraid of."
Liu Sheng, with her delicate head bobbing slightly, became more alert.
Indeed, although they have the protection of the "Kunji Seal", it does not mean that they can act recklessly and do whatever they want.
The "Kunji Seal" can only protect them from external harm, but if they are surrounded by an indestructible golden net, then there is probably nothing they can do.
After all, the wire mesh only restricts their movement, not harms them.
Once you're in that situation, you're in a very passive position.
If Jue Tian were to suddenly decide to cut off their food and water supply, they would starve to death!
This is also why they didn't fight to the death in the Wushen Jue Palace.
Of course, they discovered this weakness by accident, and it would be extremely difficult for others to know and exploit it, so the two women's safety is still highly guaranteed.
The Yagyu sisters joined forces, brandishing their swords and charging in one direction, attempting to break through the encirclement.
The two sides clashed fiercely, their blades flashing, making the night seem even colder.
At this moment, Jue Tian also arrived with his men. Seeing the sharp and decisive heroic figures of the Liu Sheng sisters, he was even more pleased.
"Xue Ji, Piao Xu, you've come to avenge your father and brother, haven't you?"
"Haha! Didn't expect that, did you? Young Master has been waiting for you all along!"
"To be able to infiltrate the Wushen Jue Palace, identify the hidden sentries, and find my residence, your disguise skills are truly remarkable. Even I, the young master, couldn't see through you and could only wait for you to come to me."
"Hehe, as expected, the young master has been waiting for a beauty!"
"Sigh, if only I had complied back then, wouldn't it have been a win-win situation? Why did things have to come to this?"
Jue Tian sighed deeply, occasionally letting out a smug chuckle, stirring up the emotions of the Liu Sheng sisters and disturbing their current state of mind.
Requesting flowers (or flowers)
The Wushen Jue Palace has many eyes and ears, and because the Yagyu sisters are women that Jue Tian specifically wanted, the Yagyu family is surrounded by Jue Tian's spies.
The Yagyu sisters had barely escaped when Zetsuten found out.
Enraged, Zetsuten went to demand the release of the prisoners, but to no avail. In response, he killed both Yagyu Tajima-no-kami and Yagyu Jubei.
Afterwards, Jue Tian followed his subordinates' advice and cut off the heads of the two women, displaying them on the gate to attract the Yagyu sisters.
Meanwhile, they secretly laid a "big net," waiting for the Yagyu sisters to jump in themselves.
Sure enough, the two women fell for the trap!
How could Jue Tian, who felt he had victory in his grasp, not be pleased?
Just then, the Yagyu sisters turned around and charged towards Jue Tian!
Seemingly enraged by Jue Tian's words, he no longer cared about breaking through the encirclement and only wanted to kill Jue Tian to avenge himself.
"Well done!"
Jue Tian was not alarmed but delighted upon seeing this. He pushed aside his subordinates who were about to step forward to stop the enemy, and with his knife in hand, he was eager to try.
"Let me show you what your future husband is really capable of, so you'll be truly convinced!"
Seeing the approaching Yagyu sisters, Jue Tian was completely unafraid, his heart filled with boundless pride.
The swordsman beside him frowned slightly, hesitated for a moment, but ultimately did not stop him.
Although Jue Tian is ambitious but lacks talent and is arrogant, as the son of Jue Wushen, his martial arts skills are not weak, and he also has the cultivation level of a late-stage Grandmaster.
According to his observation, Jue Tian had no chance of winning against the Yagyu sisters, but he could still manage to exchange a few blows.
However, just to be on the safe side, he still spoke up: "One for each of you."
He took one for himself; surely Jue Tian wouldn't make a mistake.
Before Jue Tian could answer, he darted out and blocked Liu Sheng Xue Ji's path.
"You bastard! How dare you disobey orders!"
Jue Tian jumped up and down in anger, feeling that he had been looked down upon.
However, since Liu Sheng Piaoxu had already attacked closely, he had no time to deal with it. He snorted and drew his long sword.
"Snow is falling on earth!"
With a single slash, Liu Sheng Piaoxu unleashed countless blade energies like a torrential snowstorm, stunningly beautiful yet concealing deadly intent, enveloping Jue Tian.
Jue Tian narrowed his eyes, swung his long sword, and created an impenetrable sword curtain, dissolving all the incoming sword energy.
He then strode forward and unleashed his swordsmanship.
The "ding-ding" sound rang out repeatedly, and before long, the two had exchanged more than twenty blows.
After another ten or so rounds, the two men clashed with their longswords, engaging in a contest of internal strength.
Seeing that Liu Sheng Piaoxu was gritting his teeth and struggling to hold on, and that he had gained the upper hand, Jue Tian revealed a smug smile on his face.
Just then, Liu Sheng Piaoxu gave a mocking laugh and uttered two words: "Fool!"
The next moment, a bomb that was a size larger than the previous one fell.
Then, to Jue Tian's horrified gaze, it crashed to the ground...
boom!
With a loud bang, Jue Tian's body was torn to pieces.
141. Secret Technique: Swallow Return, the Number One Master of the Yagyu Clan
The explosion was like a bolt from the blue, carrying far through the darkness.
At this moment, everyone was stunned.
Even the young swordsman forced Yagyu Yukihime back with a single strike, staring intently at the large crater that had appeared on the spot and the shattered corpses scattered around him, his eyes filled with disbelief.
At that moment, his heart trembled.
He never expected that Liu Sheng Piaoxu would be so ruthless, willing to use the Thunderclap Bomb to take Jue Tian down with him in order to avenge himself.
This shouldn't be happening! This can't be right!
If the Yagyu sisters truly cared so much about their father and brother, how could they have disregarded their safety and run away before?
Shouldn't we fight back with all our might, only to be captured alive and ultimately have no choice but to accept reality?
The reality was far different from what he had expected, and the swordsman could neither understand nor believe it.
But he understood one thing—
The Palace of No Gods is about to change!
Not only him, but all the palace guards also realized this, and for a moment everyone was filled with fear and apprehension.
You must know that Jue Tian was deeply favored by Jue Wushen, but now he has lost his life in a "sure-win situation". How could Jue Wushen let it go?
While this outcome is undoubtedly due to Jue Tian's arrogance, they will also face accountability and will inevitably be accused of "inadequate protection."
This crime is punishable by death!
The swordsman's usually cold face turned ashen, his eyes, like those of a wounded lone wolf, fixed intently on Yagyu Yukihime opposite him, his gaze filled with murderous intent.
He remained silent, his body suddenly spinning like a topspinning ...
The instant he landed, he raised his sword vertically above his head and then strode towards Yagyu Yukihime!
The steps were light and heavy, yet they were also incredibly fast.
Yagyu Yukihime watched his every move intently. Just when she thought he was about to strike with his sword, the swordsman dispelled the fierce momentum at the last second!
His arms outstretched, like a swift gliding along the ground, he swept past over Yagyu Yukihime's head at an incredible speed.
This sudden change of tactics, which seemed like a lot of noise but little effect, left Yagyu Yukihime bewildered.
But her hands moved quickly, slashing straight upwards with her sword.
Unfortunately, it's still a step too late.
The swordsman seemed to have truly transformed into a swallow, moving with incredible speed.
The next moment, everyone around witnessed an astonishing scene—
Logically speaking, a swordsman rushing at such a high speed should have to run forward a certain distance before stopping. However, while he was in mid-air, his facing direction remained unchanged, but his body unexpectedly and suddenly retreated!
A knife slashed diagonally from under her ribs and backwards, striking Yagyu Yukihime in the abdomen with lightning speed as she turned around!
At the same time, the sword energy suddenly erupted!
Usually at this point, the opponent's meridians will be destroyed instantly, making defeat inevitable.
And this is the strongest sword technique of the Celestial Realm, which has been lost to Japan for a long time—Swallow Return!
The swordsman is now a mid-stage Grandmaster, but he once killed a late-stage Grandmaster with this move.
Needless to say, Yagyu Yukihime was also an exception.
