Chapter 425: Chapter 209: Nurtured by War_3

Seeing this, Liu Suifeng simply closed his eyes at that moment.

Closing his eyes was not because his ears were sharper than his eyes, but to achieve a focused mind, fully integrating what he had learned from this battle.

Suddenly, his eyes snapped open, and the Third Palace Master’s Sword Qi had already reached him.

Liu Suifeng let out a breath, with a flicker of sword light, and in the next instant, he stepped forward, leaving a shadow in his original place.

Seven consecutive steps, his sword traveled in a straight line.

In the original spot, seven shadows were left.

The seven shadows plunged into the Sword Qi, which scattered like moonshine, and they fought fiercely to split the luminescent glow in two halves.

As his swordsmanship unfolded, the Third Palace Master’s Longsword in her palm trembled more and more.

The ’moonlight’ scattered, creating waves and ripples.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, and she suddenly stamped her foot, her figure turning abruptly.

The sword light, as bright as the moon, all converged around her, flowing like a long river. As she pointed out with her Longsword once more, the Sword Qi wrapped around her blade like a lengthy river.

The sheer sharpness tore through the void, causing the buzzing Sword Qi to ring incessantly in one’s ears.

At that moment, Liu Suifeng’s Longsword had reached her.

And the six shadows behind him suddenly merged into his body one after another; the seven shadows suddenly coalesced, and the light from Liu Suifeng’s Longsword shone dazzlingly like the stars and moon!

Buzz buzz buzz!!!

Ding ding ding!!!

In a flash, the sword cried out sharply, the sounds piercing the ears.

Ordinary people would not feel anything upon hearing this sword cry.

However, the Third Palace Master felt her spirit waver.

Memories of the past reemerged before her eyes, her already crumbling Mental Stage failed to hold on.

In an instance, it completely shattered to pieces.

And as her Mental Stage crumbled entirely, she could no longer grasp the Longsword in her hand, the Sword Qi it carried dissipated, and the Longsword tumbled and fell.

Looking up, she saw Liu Suifeng’s Longsword was already upon her.

Yet she felt no fear, instead, a faint sense of reassurance and expectation filled her.

“Alone in this mortal world for twenty years, looking back, all that time turned to void.

“Su Tianyang… If I go to the underworld in search of you, will you still shun me as you did before?

“I don’t aspire for us to grow old together, I just want you… to glance at me one more time, just once is enough.”

Her eyes tightly shut, she felt the Sword Intent already in her embrace.

At this moment, Liu Suifeng too returned to his senses, he was immersed in the clash of swordplay, more addicted to the breakthrough of the Divine Rainbow Heart Seeking Sword.

In his negligence, things had already progressed to this extent.

During a martial contest, there was an understanding: the sword does not see, and life and death are not debated.

But to use this as an excuse to take lives at will, wouldn’t that be no different from a demon?

Nevertheless, it was too late to stop now.

This sword stroke was his newfound understanding, far from reaching a realm where he could control it with ease. For a moment, he could only watch, his Longsword about to pierce the Third Palace Master’s chest.

At the same instant, disciples of Lengyue Palace couldn’t help but cry out in alarm.

But rescue was hopelessly far.

Wei Ziyi, almost reflexively, moved to grab the sword but ultimately fell short.

Right then, Su Mo, who had been sitting quietly to the side, shook his head gently, his index finger already secretly tucked beneath his thumb.

Witnessing this scene, he lifted his hand, flicking it through the air.

Without a buzz or a sound.

The flick had emanated a strand of Inner Strength, following the descent of his finger, Qi Force had already reached Liu Suifeng’s Longsword.

Boom!!

Buzz!!!!!!

The Longsword in Liu Suifeng’s hand suddenly shuddered as if struck heavily.

The blade wavered uncontrollably, buzzing all around.

The sword’s trajectory shifted, darting to one side.

He moved his sword forward, spinning six or seven times on the spot before calming the lingering force on the sword and the energy that had struck it.

A little dazed for a moment, tracing the energy back to its source, he saw Su Mo standing up, stepping lightly and arriving in front of the Third Palace Master.

The Third Palace Master’s body gave in, and he effortlessly caught her, glancing at Liu Suifeng:

“Master Liu, my apologies for the offense.”

“Gratitude is hardly sufficient.”

Upon hearing his words, Liu Suifeng finally breathed a sigh of relief: “I wonder, what Skill did you just use?”

“A minor technique, I call it the Finger Flicking Technique.”

Su Mo smiled slightly, then took the Third Palace Master’s wrist, his brow furrowing slightly: “Although the blade did not pierce through her chest, the Sword Qi has already entered her body.”

He had barely finished speaking when the sound of swords being drawn echoed.

The disciples of Lengyue Palace each had their Longswords in hand, glaring angrily at Liu Suifeng.

Several elders and Wei Ziyi had already checked the Third Palace Master’s injuries, but saw her cough softly and shake her head:

“What are you doing?

“Losing to superior skill, do you intend to forcefully detain me?

“Sheath your swords, treat him with due respect, don’t let others think that Lengyue Palace… can’t accept defeat.”

The disciples exchanged glances, eventually nodded, and sheathed their swords.

Liu Suifeng spoke softly, conceding: “I am grateful.”

The Third Palace Master then looked at Su Mo, holding onto his arm as she stood up, looking at Liu Suifeng:

“Excellent Swordsmanship… I’ll await your battle outcome with Wan Cangxin in Tianqu City.”

“Very well.”

Liu Suifeng nodded in agreement.

Su Mo then looked at the Third Palace Master: “Are you alright?”

“Hmph, I started learning martial arts at three, had achievements by ten, and at sixteen on the Star Viewing Platform, I understood the Flying Star Sword Technique… do you think my martial arts are practiced in vain?”

“…So you mean to say you’re alright?”

Su Mo sounded surprised, Sword Qi having entered the heart and still full of vitality, seemingly no significant issue?

The Third Palace Master scoffed coldly, gave Su Mo a sidelong glance, then her eyes rolled back, and she collapsed into Su Mo’s arms, unconscious…

“…You could have at least held on for another few exchanges before fainting.”

Su Mo quickly picked her up, about to call for Little Situ, who was already by their side.

Everyone scrambled to bring the Third Palace Master into Lengyue Palace for healing.

Nobody noticed, amidst the crowd, the Scar-faced Strange Guest held his hand in a gesture that mirrored the second strike of Liu Suifeng’s sword!
