With a "poof," the mental connection between the Right Elder and the light sword instantly disappeared. The sudden break and violent vibration made it impossible for the Right Elder, who was currently under the influence of the Soft Immortal Powder, to resist. After spitting out a mouthful of blood, he became dizzy and passed out.
"Big Brother!" Elder Zuo shouted anxiously.
A massive surge of emerald light erupted from the old man's right palm, forming a longsword of radiant light. Countless vines coiled around the green sword, which, carrying world-destroying power, swiftly slashed towards Elder Zuo. The old man sneered, "Brotherly affection? Then I'll make you just like him!"
Elder Zuo didn't dodge; instead, he charged straight at him with all his might, shouting, "Miss Wuxie, quickly take Young Master Tianci away!"
His charge was clearly a desperate attempt to buy time, knowing he had also been poisoned by the "softening powder" and that he would eventually be defeated if the battle dragged on.
He was given his life by the patriarch. Without the patriarch, he would have died long ago. Even if he were to die now, he had already lived for so long, it was worth it! As long as he could protect the people the patriarch wanted to protect, his death would not have been in vain!
"I...can't leave you here..." Wu Xie hadn't expected that after her grandfather and the experts left, a powerful enemy would attack, and the target would be her and her younger brother. She was only a five-year-old child and had never seen such a battle between experts. She was stunned and didn't know what to do.
Hua Qianye flew out of the ring, thinking to himself: "It seems this child still lacks too much. This is a good experience, though." He said coldly, "Protect your brother. Don't be afraid, I'm here!"
After saying this, Hua Qianye flew towards Elder Zuo without hesitation. He was incredibly fast, arriving at the sword even before Elder Zuo. Wu Xie picked up her younger brother and saw Hua Qianye flying towards the sword tip as if committing suicide. She cried out in alarm, "No, don't die!"
Hua Qianye rolled her eyes on the spot. Although she knew the little girl was worried about her, did she really look like she was trying to commit suicide?
When the sword was only a hair's breadth away from him, wisps of blue smoke appeared in his palm. The smoke swirled and drew out a bewitching blue spirit flower. He uttered an ancient incantation, and the flower's petals instantly fell off. The suspended petals transformed into streaks of blue light, shattering the sword of light.
Neither Elder Zuo nor the old man could see Hua Qianye. In the old man's eyes, he only saw Elder Zuo rushing towards the tip of his sword without regard for his own safety. Suddenly, it was as if a life-saving talisman had been dissolved on Elder Zuo's chest, and countless blue sharp rays flew out.
The old man's gaze turned even colder. In fact, he had long known that the Left Elder and Right Elder were the two secret guards. In the end, they were adopted by Han Mengxiao, but they did not have the status of adopted sons. Seeing this scene, he was even more furious: You, Han Mengxiao, you are even willing to give this guy such a precious thing as a life-saving talisman!
Jealousy and anger burned fiercely in his heart, like a killer that numbed his reason. Just as the old man angrily gathered all his immortal energy into the green bead and made an excessive movement in an attempt to unleash his power, Elder Zuo discovered his weakness!
He's a Golden Immortal! Just a Golden Immortal, but by using this bead, he has power equivalent to a mid-level Great Luo Golden Immortal!
As long as you avoid this bead, his body should be very fragile!
Thinking of this, Elder Zuo suddenly twisted and spun like a snake, making it impossible to pinpoint his exact location. His speed was astonishing, and he created countless afterimages. However, the Soft Immortal Powder in his body was gradually damaging his immortal roots. If it weren't for his powerful divine sense supporting him, he might have fainted like Elder You long ago. Although Elder You's cultivation was higher than his, he had still ascended from the mortal realm. What he possessed in his body was not an immortal root, but a spiritual root. That's why he was so powerless against the Soft Immortal Powder.
The old man repeatedly used the bead to emit beams of green light, the powerful green beams punching large holes in the house, but none of them hit Elder Zuo, who was dodging like a ghost. However, this also made it difficult for Elder Zuo to get close to the old man.
Seeing that Elder Zuo was slowly losing his strength, Hua Qianye had no choice but to help him once again. Fearing that he would be discovered, he simply used the power of the wind to push Elder Zuo as he tried to get closer to the old man.
How could he have gotten to him so quickly? Elder Zuo was somewhat puzzled, but he didn't dwell on it. As the old man was astonished at how quickly he had arrived, Elder Zuo roared, "Extreme Ice Slash!"
Hearing the other party's roar, the old man instinctively used fire. But who could have imagined that the other party would resort to underhanded tactics at this moment? He shouted "Extreme Ice Slash" while unleashing a whirlwind that not only swirled up the old man's fire but also used it to attack himself.
The old man couldn't dodge in time and suffered a large burn on his chest. When he tried to retaliate, he felt an even stronger gust of wind coming towards him. It seemed to be an attack from Elder Zuo, but the power was beyond what Elder Zuo's level could generate. Of course, he didn't know that Hua Qianye had tampered with it. He was furious and thought that this was because Han Mengxiao had given the other party some kind of wind-controlling magic weapon.
Under the force of the wind, the old man lost his footing. Elder Zuo, with quick eyes and hands, struck him on the wound in his chest, trying to aggravate his injury and take advantage of his weakness to kill him!
With his other hand, he reached for the green bead. Just as he thought he was about to get it, he heard the old man's sinister laugh: "I'm not playing with you anymore. Even if I just wait outside the manor, I'm sure you'll be too weak to resist the effects of the Softening Elixir in half an hour! I'll guard outside the manor and see who manages to get out! Come back in half an hour to see what I can do!"
"mean!"
Just as the green bead he was about to snatch disappeared, the man suddenly vanished using an escape talisman, disappearing in an instant. Elder Zuo could only regret that he was too slow and his arms were too short; if his arms were longer, he could have grabbed the bead.
As the enemy departed, Elder Zuo collapsed to the ground like a deflated balloon. The Soft Immortal Powder in his body had already eroded and depleted too much of his immortal root power after the great battle. Even if he managed to survive today, he would suffer the same fate as the head of the Tian family, his lifespan rapidly fading away; he could only live a few more days.
"Elder Zuo, are you alright?"
"Miss Wuxie, it seems I will have to disappoint the patriarch's expectations today. If that person is really guarding outside the manor, neither you nor your brother will escape his grasp. I am also powerless to fight and protect you... cough cough..." Elder Zuo said weakly, but he could not continue speaking halfway through. Blood welled up in his throat. He tried to suppress his coughs, his brows furrowed tightly, trying not to cough up blood, but a few streaks of blood still spilled from the corner of his mouth. Finally, he fell into a coma.
Wu Xie looked at Hua Qianye pleadingly, knowing that Hua Qianye must have a way.
"Like the head of the Tian family, he needs a longevity elixir to recover," Hua Qianye said lazily.
"An elixir of immortality?" Wu Xie lowered his head in disappointment. Even the head of the Tian family had searched for so long without success, let alone in such an emergency. How could they possibly find an elixir of immortality?
"What's wrong? Do you really want to save him?" Hua Qianye asked with a playful smile.
Wu Xie nodded seriously and replied, "He risked his life to save me and my brother. Even before he fell unconscious, he didn't forget his loyalty to my grandfather. If he were to die at the hands of such a despicable person who used poison, I think it would be a great loss. I also don't want my grandfather to lose such capable assistants as Elder Zuo and Elder You."
