Chapter 1787: Chapter 1787: There is a mole, terminate the transaction! (2/3)
In the earlier test.
Ye Qiubai fell into a trap and was ambushed by the Xuanyuan Clan.
If not for his timely reaction and Mu Fusheng’s support, he would likely have been caught in a death trap.
The Xuanyuan Clan were a top family. With their deep foundation and the trap holding him down, resistance was naturally unlikely.
Moreover.
Among the opposition were two late-stage Monarch God Realm cultivators, alongside Xuanyuan Che, whose Sword Dao realm was notably advanced.
Mu Fusheng stood in front of Ye Qiubai, staring at the Xuanyuan Clan’s group in front of him, and asked Ye Qiubai, "Senior Brother, are you okay?"
Ye Qiubai’s face was pale, and he said gravely, "I need the time of an incense stick to burn."
Such severe injuries, if endured by an ordinary person, might require over ten days to recover.
It was only thanks to Lu Changsheng’s medicinal pills and the endless vitality contained within the Primordial Sword Scripture that recovery was possible.
The Xuanyuan clan members, upon hearing this, sneered coldly.
"The time of an incense stick to burn? Even if you recover, so what? Not to mention... how could he possibly withstand the combined assault of our Xuanyuan Clan all by himself?"
Xuanyuan Ling also said coldly, "So, you’re Mu Fusheng? According to the information, your feud with the Seven Treasures Saint Sect remains unsettled..."
At this point, Xuanyuan Ling glanced at Ji Yang, the Holy Son of the Seven Treasures Saint Sect, who stood nearby.
"Brother Ji, how about our Xuanyuan Clan cooperates with your Seven Treasures Saint Sect, captures him, and leaves him to you for resolution?"
The matter of the Seven Treasures Saint Sect wanting to form an alliance through marriage with the Nine Dragon Divine Dynasty, only to be rejected, was well known and had caused quite a stir. Naturally, the Xuanyuan Clan was aware of it.
However... they were ignorant of the fact that the Seven Treasures Saint Sect had already apologized and aligned themselves with Mu Fusheng.
After all.
Right after this matter came the opening of the Chaos Divine Dynasty ruins.
At the time, the Xuanyuan Clan had been busy handling matters related to Xu Canghai from the Xu Family, and the rest of their efforts were focused on preparing for the Chaos Divine Dynasty ruins.
There simply wasn’t time to intentionally keep track of this development.
Upon hearing this, Ji Yang glanced at Mu Fusheng, who also turned to meet his gaze and said, "Ji Yang, let’s settle the feud between us and the Seven Treasures Saint Sect outside these ruins!"
At this,
Ji Yang suddenly understood. He sneered coldly and led the Seven Treasures Saint Sect’s members to Xuanyuan Ling’s side.
"Do you take me for a three-year-old child? Why settle outside the ruins, when I can resolve this right here and now? Why should I give you the chance to escape?"
Seeing this, Xuanyuan Ling nodded slightly, directing his gaze toward Mu Fusheng and Ye Qiubai, his voice heavy. "Two top factions joining forces — do you think you still stand a chance? Hand over the Sword Bone and the Green Cloud Sword Master’s legacy now, and perhaps you can spare yourself unnecessary suffering."
Ye Qiubai didn’t reply. At this moment, he was fully focused on circulating the Primordial Sword Scripture to refine the medicinal pill and recover from his injuries.
Mu Fusheng, on the other hand, looked grave, holding talismans in one hand while lightning surged from the other.
"We have to fight. Perhaps there is still a sliver of hope."
Members of the Xuanyuan Clan sneered, "Hope? Do you think there’s still hope in this situation?"
Xuanyuan Che, watching silently from the side, hesitated. Truth be told, he didn’t want to do this, but his stance and faction dictated his actions.
What a pity.
Such an excellent Sword Dao opponent, now forced to meet an untimely end...
"Enough talk. Act quickly before any unexpected complications arise!"
Saying this,
Xuanyuan Ling was the first to charge at Mu Fusheng with his sword!
Ji Yang followed immediately, forming seals with his hands as the Seven Treasures Seal manifested once again, exuding a daunting aura!
It appeared they were going to strike with full force!
Xuanyuan Che unsheathed his sword and approached Mu Fusheng from the side.
The other members of the Xuanyuan Clan and the Seven Treasures Saint Sect followed suit.
But... by some peculiar coordination, every Xuanyuan Clan disciple had a Seven Treasures Saint Sect disciple subtly moving alongside them.
Seeing this, Mu Fusheng’s expression hardened.
With a flick of his right hand, he hurled talismans toward Xuanyuan Che, who was approaching with his sword on the right!
At the same time,
His left hand clenched suddenly, transforming ancient divine lightning into a lightning spear, which he thrust toward the advancing Xuanyuan Ling!
In response,
Xuanyuan Ling not only showed no intention of dodging but even sneered dismissively, "Trying to multitask? Perhaps you can fend off the talismans against Brother Che... but I’m late-stage Monarch God Realm. Do you think you can block me so easily?"
Xuanyuan Che hurriedly dealt with the talismans.
And just as Xuanyuan Ling’s sword was about to clash with the lightning spear,
A massive Seven Treasures Seal suddenly appeared, growing sharply in size!
The seven seals merged into one — the Seven Treasures Seal!
Xuanyuan Ling felt a shadow envelop his left side.
Instinctively glancing over, he saw the enormous Seven Treasures Seal descending upon him!
Xuanyuan Ling’s expression changed drastically. In desperation, he turned his sword from attack to defense to block the incoming Seven Treasures Seal!
Yet, caught off guard, his rushed defense allowed the Seven Treasures Seal’s impact to dislocate his five organs and six orifices!
Before Xuanyuan Ling could process why Ji Yang had suddenly turned his attack toward him,
Mu Fusheng’s lightning spear pierced toward him with intensity!
Helpless,
Xuanyuan Ling bit his teeth and released one hand from his sword. With sword intent, he formed a second blade to counter the lightning spear!
But lightning spear wasn’t ordinary — it was more akin to an explosive device!
At mere contact, it detonated instantly!
Devastating lightning engulfed Xuanyuan Ling completely.
Still, Mu Fusheng didn’t relent in his assault.
Freeing his other hand, he raised it above his head, coldly glaring at the lightning-shrouded area. His palm fell abruptly!
Above the thunderous zone, a towering pillar of lightning struck down fiercely!
Boom, boom, boom!
The chaos wasn’t limited to Xuanyuan Ling’s vicinity.
Even Xuanyuan Clan members were besieged by surprise attacks from Seven Treasures Saint Sect disciples!
At present, they had no time to manage this side of the battlefield!
Xuanyuan Che, while fending off the overwhelming talismans, looked on bewilderedly.
Aren’t your Seven Treasures Saint Sect supposed to have a grudge with Mu Fusheng?
And for something as grave as him stealing a woman — a grudge that leaves no room for compromise — why were your forces suddenly turning against the Xuanyuan Clan?
Moreover, with such ruthless, kill-or-be-killed attacks.
Several Xuanyuan Clan members were instantly heavily injured!
The focal point, however, was Xuanyuan Ling.
The firepower concentrated on him was the most intense.
Mu Fusheng clearly wasn’t taking any chances in ensuring Xuanyuan Ling’s demise... furiously throwing talismans and lightning, determined to land the killing blow.
But.
After all, Xuanyuan Ling was a Heavenly Pride of the Xuanyuan Clan, having reached the late stage of the Monarch God Realm.
Within the lightning’s chaos, a surge of sword intent shattered the Seven Treasures Seal into fragments.
A figure emerged from the lightning, retreating rapidly!
Xuanyuan Ling’s hair was disheveled, his white robe scorched black, his face pale and bloodless, and blood dripped continually from the corner of his mouth.
It was clear he had suffered serious injuries.
Blood-red eyes fixed upon Ji Yang, Xuanyuan Ling ground his teeth and snarled, "It seems... the Seven Treasures Saint Sect struck a deal with them? Do you... intend to go to war with the Xuanyuan Clan?!"
