Ultimate God of Swords - Chapter 708
Chapter 708 Two Against One
Su Yun’s line of sight enlarged, his gaze fixated on Lv Xiao.
He suddenly grabbed Changxiao and pulled out an extremely thin sword. The moment the sword was unsheathed, it went straight to the head of the shopkeeper.
The shopkeeper’s movements were swift and sharp. He bent back and avoided Xiao Jian’s attack. Then, he released a wave of profound energy, forcing Qin Hongsan and Lv Xiao to retreat. The two of them jumped several meters back. The surroundings of the tavern were also shattered by the shopkeeper’s profound energy, causing the already dilapidated tavern to become a mess.
Su Yun ran out of the tavern with the wine jug in his hand and found an empty space. He drank wine while watching the two fight. There were really many people who joined in the fun like him. Furthermore, everyone did not pay for the wine. He took the wine jug and drank on his own. He looked very uncomfortable.
Lv Xiao and the shopkeeper rushed out of the tavern and started fighting on the street.
Occasionally, passers-by would stop to watch the battle, but those who were in trouble would leave directly.
There were no guards to stop it, and no one was surprised, as if everything was normal.
Seeing this, Su Yun felt that this world of swords was truly filled with strong folk customs.
The shopkeeper’s hand pulled the belt around his waist. The belt was directly pulled off. It spun around in his hand, sparkling and shining. It was especially eye-catching. It was actually a soft sword!
Lv Xiao’s sword was like a venomous bee, fierce and sharp.
He was not like other Spirit Cultivators who used swords. He used cutting, hacking, hacking, and stabbing. He only used one move, stabbing!
He didn’t move easily, always spinning and dodging around the shopkeeper in search of an opportunity. However, once he made a move, that sword strike would shake the heavens and earth. The profound energy on Xiao Jian would be released at the same time, directly smashing into the earth like a meteor falling. It was extremely terrifying.
The entire street had been shattered by Lv Xiao’s bombardment, and it was incomparably messy.
However, even though Lv Xiao’s offensive was swift and violent, it could not affect the shopkeeper at all.
At this moment, his body was like the long sword in his hand that resembled a whip, He swayed left and right, as slippery as a loach, Regardless of how terrifying Lv Xiao’s attack was, he was able to avoid it. Every time the sword blade was about to pierce through his body, he would intentionally or unintentionally hide to the side. When he looked at the shopkeeper’s expression, he was calm and did not panic at all. His footsteps were messy but orderly. He looked like a drunk person, but he did not feel like he was panicking. It was truly amazing.
Seeing this, everyone knew that the shopkeeper’s cultivation was probably higher than Lv Xiao’s.
Puchi.
Suddenly, a crisp sound came out.
Two sword marks suddenly appeared on Lv Xiao’s shoulders.
Then, two strands of sword qi sliced straight into his shoulders! The brilliant sword intent rippled like a flood, forcing the entire street to retreat.
Lv Xiao’s expression turned solemn. He immediately took half a step back. The Profound strength in his body activated it. The precious robe on his body immediately reacted. A circle of brilliant light erupted from his robe. The sword qi sliced into the robe immediately rippled and dispersed. It was completely blocked by the lattice.
“Imperial Artifact!”
“Looking at the intensity, I’m afraid it’s not low!”
The scene was in an uproar.
“The Drunken Sword is indeed worthy of its reputation. This movement technique, this sword trajectory, is simply impossible to defend against. However, that Lv Xiao is not an ordinary person. I see that most of the magic treasures on his body are extremely precious treasures.”
“That’s right. Although Lv Xiao’s cultivation is inferior to the shopkeeper’s, this magic treasure might be able to make up for the difference.”
Everyone was discussing.
Drunken Sword… Xiao Jian?
Su Yun’s eyes were like torches as he carefully stared at the fight between Lv Xiao and the shopkeeper.
The battle between the two of them was not vast. They did not use any terrifying moves to destroy the mountain and the sea of rage, but instead attacked their opponents. The shopkeepers fought very conservatively, all of them on guard, while Lv Xiao kept attacking.
But the shopkeeper and Lv Xiao weren’t just defending and attacking.
Lv Xiao kept circling around the shopkeeper. His speed was so fast that he couldn’t even see the afterimages. He could only see a gust of strong wind rippling at that end.
Every time he noticed a flaw, he would stab it with his sword. Xiao Jian carried the aura of destroying heaven and earth.
The shopkeeper easily dodged the attack, and every time he successfully dodged Lv Xiao’s attack, the shopkeeper would return his sword.
If it wasn’t for the fact that the grade of Lv Xiao’s Imperial Equipment wasn’t low, he would have died long ago.
Neither of them was injured, but Lv Xiao’s consumption of profound energy was far greater than the shopkeeper’s. It was clear which was stronger and which was weaker.
“If this continues, Lv Xiao will definitely lose.”
“Haha, it’s still an existence ranked seventeenth on the British Sword Rankings. Is that all you have? Isn’t that too disappointing!”
‘”You can’t say that. This shopkeeper was also the number one figure who dominated the world back then. Drunken Sword Ah Kui, haven’t you heard of him before? He was also a member of the British Sword Rankings. However, after Drunken Sword was defeated and retreated, no one knew about him. Many people thought that he was dead. They didn’t expect that he would actually run here to open a tavern.”
“Oh? He’s Ah Kui.”
Bang!
Suddenly, an explosion sounded in the middle of the battle between the two of them.
Shopkeeper A Kui flew backwards, and his body was devoured by a series of vacuum explosions. When he fell to the ground, the profound energy in his entire body was shattered.
“What’s going on?”
Everyone exclaimed.
Their eyes were fixed on the two of them, but when A-Kui was suddenly attacked, they did not discover how Lv Xiao attacked!
Only Su Yun’s eyes flashed with disgust and disdain.
He did not look at Lv Xiao and Ah Kui, but instead focused his attention on the woman standing not far from them…
Qin Hongsan.
Under Shopkeeper Ah Kui’s drunken sword, Lv Xiao had no way to deal with him. As time passed, not only did Lv Xiao’s profound energy consumption become more and more enormous, Ah Kui also gradually mastered Lv Xiao’s sword moves.
If this continued, Lv Xiao couldn’t do anything to Ah Kui. A Kui would gradually widen the distance between the two of them and slowly gain the upper hand, killing Lv Xiao and winning this duel.
Lv Xiao and Ah Kui’s sword skills and fighting skills weren’t any worse. Even if he wasn’t in a hurry now, it was impossible for him to win against Ah Kui!
Therefore, Qin Hongsan took action.
Her actions were very secret, so secret that almost everyone present, including Su Yun, did not know that she had made a move.
However, there was one thing that allowed Su Yun to know that she had made her move.
Two sword marks appeared on A Kui’s body.
This sword mark was not stabbed out, but sliced out.
Although Xuan Qi was very similar to Lv Xiao, it was not Lv Xiao’s move. It was impossible for Lv Xiao to cut out these two sword marks. Moreover, he did not have a chance!
Su Yun stared at Qin Hongsan, only to see that the pink paper fan over there had been opened, and the umbrella hilt slightly opened, revealing a wisp of cold light, dots of killing intent pervading.
She stood quietly by the side, propped up the paper fan and looked at A Kui, her eyes deep like two hidden wells.
Shopkeeper A Kui hurriedly stood up. He turned his head to look at Qin Hongsan, his brows furrowed tightly. He thought that he had noticed that Qin Hongsan had attacked, but the onlookers all thought that Lv Xiao had done this move.
“What do you mean?”
Shopkeeper Ah Kui said in a low voice.
However, Lv Xiao and Qin Hongsan did not have any intention of explaining. Lv Xiao raised his sword and killed him again, which was very pressuring and did not give A Kui a chance to catch his breath.
With this Imperial Armament, Shopkeeper A Kui would find it extremely difficult to kill Lv Xiao with the Drunken Sword alone, but he would not be able to kill Lv Xiao. With Qin Hongsan secretly helping him, he would undoubtedly lose.
A Kui dodged and attacked while leaning against the illusory and invisible Drunken Sword. However, he was unable to break through even a few swords. Instead, he was hit by Lv Xiao on the waist. A large piece of meat was washed away by Xuan Qi, and he staggered backwards. Blood was spilled all over the ground, causing him to be in a sorry state.
Seeing this, a strange smile appeared on Lv Xiao’s face.
“The duels in the Sword World are usually one-on-one. No one else is allowed to interfere. Anyone who interferes in the duel will be killed.” Shopkeeper Ah Kui said in a deep voice.
“However, the world does not know that we are two against one!”
Lv Xiao lowered his voice and laughed in a low voice. Only these two people could hear him in a low voice.
When the shopkeeper heard this, he snorted repeatedly, “Has the British Sword Rankings fallen? Even people like you can enter the British Sword Rankings!”
“Cut the crap. If I kill you, my combat strength and ranking in the Sword World will be even higher. The benefits will be endless. Aren’t all the battles in the Sword World unbroken?”
As his voice fell, Lv Xiao stabbed at him with his Xiao sword.
The jade-green Xiao Jian was like a swaying poisonous snake, cold and swift.
Su Yun shook his head repeatedly from afar. He had always thought that although the people of the Sword World were bellicose and bloodthirsty, they at least adhered to principles and scrupulously abided by the Sword Dao. Today, it seemed that this was not the case.
Qin Hongsan was ranked eighteenth on the British Sword Rankings. A Kui’s Drunken Sword was naturally not afraid of Lv Xiao, but against these two, there was no chance of winning.
With Qin Hongsan on the side secretly assisting, Lv Xiao had the upper hand.
A Kui knew that if he continued, he would undoubtedly die. He turned his head to stare at the two waiters standing at the entrance of the inn and shouted in a low voice, “Lai Fu, Lai Xi, hurry up and kill Lv Xiao with me.”
When the two waiters heard this, they did not move. Instead, they looked hesitant.
“Shopkeeper, this is an open and honest duel. If the little one takes action, according to the rules of the Sword World, the little one will probably be killed on the spot by others … the little one doesn’t dare … don’t dare …”
“They have already broken the rules. What are you afraid of?”
“But … where did they destroy it?”
Lai Fu asked, puzzled.
Seeing this, the shopkeeper’s eyebrows tightened.
He knew that it was impossible to ask for help.
For the sake of today’s plan, he could only save his life.
Immediately, the shopkeeper turned around, wanting to escape and avoid fighting with Lv Xiao. However, his escape truly violated the rules of the Sword World.
Once the two fought, they had to live on. Anyone who escaped would be considered defeated and could be killed at will.
In an instant, Qin Hongsan took action.
She and Lv Xiao moved from left to right as they approached the shopkeeper. The pink umbrella opened in the air, and a strong wind blew out from the umbrella. A cold aura erupted from the umbrella handle, and an umbrella sword thinner than Xiao Jian was taken out. It spread its wings like a phoenix and swept towards A Kui.
A Kui was injured and noticed that Qin Hongsan had suddenly attacked. His expression changed drastically, wanting to use a magic treasure to resist. However, a layer of frost quickly condensed on his body as a cold energy attacked him. In a short moment, his wife turned into an ice sculpture and fell to the ground. When he touched the ground, the frost on the ice sculpture even covered the entire street with frost.
Qin Hongsan rushed over and slashed with his sword, causing Shopkeeper A Kui’s ice sculpture body to immediately shatter into pieces and scatter all over the ground.
The scene was in an uproar.
