Empress, please lay down your armor, for I will save the world with a single sword!

The screams kept reaching Mo Wanwan's ears.

She turned her head to look.

Of the elite troops who followed Maitreya into Gaotang, more than half have already died or been wounded.

The alleyway entrance was blocked by a shield array.

The rooftop was filled with black-clad guards.

The ballista was still adjusting its position.

Even experts at the Vajra Realm began to flee in panic.

Mo Wanwan's last bit of confidence vanished.

She had never seen anything like it before.

In the past, she was used to martial arts masters moving with incredible skill and treating ordinary soldiers as worthless.

Only now did she truly understand how terrifying the imperial army was.

Dozens of soldiers couldn't stop a Vajra Realm expert.

Hundreds of people might also be swept away.

Even if thousands of soldiers form a tight formation, and with the help of powerful bows and crossbows and the experts of the Black-Clad Guards, the Vajra Realm expert will still be worn down to death!

"Left Holy Envoy..."

Mo Wanwan looked at Wen Xingzhou.

"Get ready to leave."

Wen Xingzhou had already put a purple pill in his mouth.

"It will be too late if we wait any longer."

In mid-air, the Maitreya Patriarch also clearly saw the situation below.

All the remaining personnel of the Black-Clad Guards have arrived.

The Gaotang Guard then dispatched several thousand more elite troops.

The peripheral followers suffered heavy casualties.

Even with Qiu Baichuan and Sang Jiushu joining forces, they still couldn't defeat Wu Liang.

Continuing to delay will only allow more troops to arrive!

For the first time, the Patriarch Maitreya truly felt the urge to retire.

But at that moment, Wu Liang charged towards Qiu Baichuan.

"Old man!"

"I must repay you for that slap last night!"

Qiu Baichuan was known for his volatile temper.

After failing to capture Wu Liang despite repeated attacks, and hearing the other party's public provocation, his anger finally erupted.

"I'll kill you first!"

He abandoned all cooperation and charged in alone.

The patriarch Maitreya sensed something was wrong.

"Baichuan, don't be impulsive!"

Qiu Baichuan has already collided with Wu Liang.

Fists collide head-on.

Golden and black qi exploded simultaneously.

Qiu Baichuan felt a sharp pain in his arm, and Wu Liang also took a step back.

The two then charged at each other.

Fists, elbows, shoulders, and knees collided in turn.

Every encounter was like two giant rocks colliding in mid-air.

Qiu Baichuan punched Wu Liang in the chest.

The golden protective aura around him vibrated violently.

Wu Liang felt his blood surging in his chest, but his left hand had already gripped Qiu Baichuan's wrist.

Suddenly, all five fingers exerted force!

Qiu Baichuan's wrist bones made a cracking sound.

Wu Liang slammed his right elbow into his face.

Qiu Baichuan turned his head to dodge, but was still hit in the shoulder, and his whole body was moved several feet to the side.

Sang Jiushu had already arrived with his sword.

Wu Liang suddenly turned around.

Their eyes met.

Sang Jiushu's heart tightened, and he subconsciously composed himself.

He thought that the brief moment of disorientation he had just experienced would happen again.

Wu Liang simply raised his right hand.

Three streams of six-meridian sword energy burst forth from his fingertips!

Sang Jiushu then realized that he had been tricked.

He parried with his sword.

The azure sword energy struck the soft sword repeatedly, forcing him to retreat three steps.

The Patriarch Maitreya has arrived from the other side.

A white lotus rapidly condensed behind Wu Liang.

The true force of the palm strike was hidden within the flower petals, heading straight for Wu Liang's back!

Wu Liang seemed oblivious.

He approached Qiu Baichuan again.

Hidden Edge pierced the heart from an extremely tricky angle!

Qiu Baichuan slapped the sword with his left palm.

Zang Feng was deflected several inches by the force of the palm strike, the blade grazing his chest.

The White Lotus Palm of the Maitreya Patriarch had already reached behind Wu Liang.

Wu Liang suddenly turned his head.

A bright, jade-like light suddenly shone in his eyes.

Soul-capturing technique!

An invisible divine power surged straight into the consciousness of Patriarch Maitreya!

thump—

It was as if a resounding bell rang in the ears of the Maitreya Patriarch.

The scene before my eyes suddenly plunged into darkness.

The sea of ​​consciousness trembled violently.

There was a momentary pause between consciousness and body.

The white lotus that had already taken shape swayed.

The palm strike also deviated from its original position, grazing past Wu Liang's shoulder.

The patriarch Maitreya quickly regained consciousness.

His internal cultivation involved his mind and spirit. After his sea of ​​consciousness was impacted by external forces, the cultivation technique activated on its own, quickly dispelling the dizziness.

But a storm was brewing in his heart.

Soul attack!

Wu Liang actually possessed a secret technique for shaking the sea of ​​consciousness!

Only after personally experiencing the blow did he understand why Sang Jiushu had paused briefly earlier!

"Keep your mind focused!"

"Beware of his soul-binding techniques!"

The warning came too late.

Wu Liang seized the moment when the Maitreya Patriarch was distracted and suddenly turned the hidden blade in his hand.

Qiu Baichuan had just deflected the sword's edge and hadn't had time to retract his palm.

The jade sword light has once again pierced towards his heart!

puff!

Concealing its sharpness, it penetrates the body.

The tip of the sword pierced through Qiu Baichuan's back!

Qiu Baichuan's body stiffened.

He looked down at the longsword piercing his chest, his eyes still filled with disbelief.

The cult leader and Sang Jiushu were clearly right next to them.

With the three experts working together, the situation remained firmly in their grasp.

How could I have died?

"No……"

Qiu Baichuan raised his left hand and gripped Wu Liang's shoulder tightly.

The five fingers exerted continuous force.

Before he died, he wanted to take Wu Liang with him to be buried with him.

Wu Liang met his gaze.

"I have spoken."

"I remember that slap from last night."

The true energy of longevity surged wildly into Qiu Baichuan's body along Cangfeng.

The azure sword energy erupted from his chest!

puff!

Blood mist gushed out.

The heart, internal organs, and meridians were all shredded by the sword energy.

Qiu Baichuan slowly released his grip on Wu Liang's shoulder.

The fierce glint in his eyes froze completely.

Wu Liang drew his hidden blade and kicked him in the chest.

"Go down and keep Qi Wanhe company!"

Qiu Baichuan's body flew out horizontally.

Sang Jiushu quickly reached out and caught it.

After obtaining it, he realized that Qiu Baichuan had already lost all life force.

died!

Another expert at the Finger Profound Realm died right before my eyes!

Sang Jiushu held the corpse, his whole body frozen in mid-air.

A brief silence fell over the battlefield below.

All the White Lotus followers looked up at Qiu Baichuan.

"Protector Qiu..."

"Protector Qiu is dead!"

"With both the sect leader and Protector Sang present, how could he possibly kill Protector Chou?"

Fear, like a plague, spread rapidly among the people...

Most of the elite troops in the sect have been killed or wounded.

Now even the Protector of the Finger-Pointing Sect has died under Wu Liang's sword.

The remaining followers' fighting spirit quickly collapsed.

The group turned and ran.

They were met with a dense rain of arrows and a formation of spears.

After a brief silence, the Black-Clad Guards erupted in deafening cheers.

Du Chengwu raised his blood-stained longsword and roared at the top of his lungs:

"The Prince has beheaded Zhi Xuan!"

"The Carefree King is mighty!"

Hundreds of black-clad guards shouted in unison.

"The Carefree King is mighty!"

"The Carefree King is mighty!"

The soldiers of the Gaotang Guard were also infected.

The shield slammed heavily into the ground.

The spears were all raised in unison.

The shouts of thousands of people converged, like a mountain roar and a tsunami, causing the rooftops nearby to tremble slightly.

Qin Hongshao looked up at Wu Liang.

The hand holding the knife was trembling slightly.

excitement!

ecstasy!

There's also an indescribable sense of pride!

Wu Liang had just entered the Finger Profound Realm when he was attacked by three Finger Profound Realm cultivators and killed one of them in front of everyone!

When word of this battle gets out, the entire martial arts world will be shaken!

Mo Wanwan was also stunned.

Qiu Baichuan is dead!

Wu Liang killed a Zhi Xuan in front of the sect leader and Sang Jiushu!

For the first time, she felt genuine fear...

This person is already so terrifying.

If he were given a few more years, would his father still be able to break free from his control?

How can I save people?

How can I take revenge?

Is revenge still possible?
