Chapter 758: The Emergence of an Emperor
“Waste!”
“A bunch of wastes!!”
“Can’t even hold back a few hundred people!!!”
Qin Qing, realizing that Hao Tian, Li Qing, and the others hadn’t stopped the people from the Mu Family but instead allowed them to charge violently through two streets, was so angry she wished she could descend personally.
Unfortunately, she knew well that in the Lingxiao Palace, though her prestige was high, her actual strength was far from satisfactory—even mediocre. On the Phoenix Ranking, she was inferior to Meng Yun, Mo Feng, Mei Ying, Feng Ling, Mo Mo, and even several newer female warriors… such as those from the Twin Demons and the Lingjiu Palace…
As for Xiao Bei, he was the infamous Marquis of Ten Thousand Poisons of the Mu Family! Many experts from the Longmen Sect, whose strength was unfathomable, had perished at his hands. As for the Mu Family’s elite fighters, they were already extremely fierce. Descending personally now would be like sending sheep into the tiger’s den.
Watching the Mu Family’s men storm through several streets and enter the market areas beyond the Lingxiao Palace’s control, where its forces couldn’t fully dominate, the situation grew even more complicated. Even archers dared not act rashly…
They could only watch helplessly as the Mu Family continued to break through streets and move further away.
Hao Tian, Li Qing, and the others also stared in shock at this team whose combat strength had become even more terrifying and coordinated, unable to muster the courage to stop them.
Many turned their attention back to those Mu Family experts who were left behind and trapped…
Hundreds more Mu Family experts were still fighting desperately. Including Silver Fox!
Despite the heavy pressure, the Longmen Sect experts couldn’t subdue Silver Fox in a short time. Instead, under her relentless attacks, the strength of two of them weakened slightly, allowing Silver Fox to regain some advantage.
“Hahahaha…”
As she regained the upper hand, Silver Fox laughed maniacally:
“With such weak strength, you still dare to claim to be enemies of the Mu Family!”
“With such weak strength, you still try to disrupt the martial world of the Central Plains…”
The deputy head of the Longmen Sect and another man looked extremely displeased. As a coach at the American Martial Arts School and one of America’s top experts, being outmatched two against one by Silver Fox was truly humiliating.
Boom!!!
Behind them, the abandoned Mu Family branch temple finally collapsed completely under the continuous attacks of the Lingxiao Palace experts. With its foundations destroyed, the temple became ruins.
Upon hearing the news of the Mu Family branch temple’s destruction, Silver Fox’s expression changed, but soon she showed a cruel, cold demeanor:
“Though the Mu Family branch temple has been destroyed today, you all will pay a price…”
“The Lingxiao Palace!”
“And you people from Longmen too!”
Silver Fox’s resounding words, like nightmares, pierced clearly into everyone’s ears present.
The deputy head of Longmen snorted through his nose:
“So much nonsense!”
“Leave it to us!”
With a step back, a group of Longmen experts who had been waiting their chance rushed out from the crowd to attack!
“Stop!!!”
A loud roar came from afar.
A cold sword appeared from a hundred meters away and shot swiftly toward the group of Longmen experts…
“What powerful sword energy!”
“Dodge quickly!”
The deputy head of Longmen’s expression changed as he shouted a warning.
The Longmen experts reacted quickly, dodging the sharp edge of the flying sword, but the people from Lingxiao Palace clearly didn’t notice or become sufficiently alert.
The cold sword light swept past from a hundred meters away. As soon as the group turned around, they felt intense pain hitting them repeatedly…
Thud! Thud!
Over a hundred disciples of Lingxiao Palace spilled blood, more sword wounds appearing on their bodies as they fell neatly onto the roof, turning it red.
Silver Fox was the only one still standing in place, unharmed…
“…”
Looking around, Silver Fox took a deep breath.
In the blink of an eye, not a single person remained within twenty meters!
There was only one person in the entire Central Plains who could use such sword techniques…
“The Emperor of Swords!”
When this name was spoken, both the people from Longmen and Lingxiao Palace, including Silver Fox, saw a figure flying in from afar.
Like a gust of wind, it landed on the roof, slowly slowing down as it approached Silver Fox…
A man in black-trimmed brocade robes, with an indifferent gaze, held no sword, yet he exuded an unparalleled aura of sword energy!
“How come you’re here?”
Silver Fox stared at The Emperor of Swords in surprise, her face full of shock.
Happy had once said that The Emperor of Swords could never join any organization, whether it was the Mu family or others…
But why was he here in Yangzhou?
“I owe you something.” The Emperor of Swords faintly smiled, glancing at the people from Lingxiao Palace around him before stopping his gaze on the deputy head of Longmen: “At Hero’s Villa, I said that whoever could withstand my three swords would get a secret martial arts manual… But you didn’t… Now that I’m here to save you, we’re even.”
These words made the people from Lingxiao Palace change expressions, and the deputy head of Longmen’s face also turned slightly grim:
“You’re the number one swordsman in the Central Plains, The Emperor of Swords!”
“Number one swordsman?”
The Emperor of Swords smiled self-mockingly:
“A year of practicing the sword isn’t even as good as that guy Happy’s one day of practice—how can that be considered the best swordsmanship? The people from Longmen aren’t continuing to rule in the Americas. Do they also have ambitions for the martial world of the Central Plains?”
“Longmen and Lingxiao Palace are allies. As for you, a lone wolf, why bother getting involved in this mess…” The deputy head of Longmen had already realized from that single strike that the strength of the “Emperor” was truly extraordinary, beyond what ordinary players could match. Otherwise, the people from Longmen and Lingxiao Palace would have attacked long ago.
“I don’t need anyone to remind me how to act. But I find you, old man, increasingly annoying. Just run a martial arts school and properly train your disciples. Stop running around learning warfare from others. Who do you think you are?”
“Dare you…”
The Longmen disciple beside him was furious.
Before his words could finish, there was no visible movement from the “Emperor.” A flash of light, and the head of that Longmen disciple flew high into the air… Those around were horrified.
The deputy head of Longmen’s expression also turned extremely ugly in an instant.
He hadn’t even seen clearly how the Emperor had struck!
The Emperor’s move intimidated all the experts from Lingxiao Palace and Longmen, forcing them to stay in place.
Only Silver Fox stared at the Emperor with a strange gaze, not understanding why he was helping her…
At that moment, the Emperor cast a cold glance at the corpse lying on the ground and sneered, “You can’t even block my single strike. To think you’d dare interfere in the martial world of the Central Plains—how arrogant and naive. Once Happy arrives, hehe…” His light laugh sent chills through the hearts of many people from Lingxiao Palace.
The strength of the Emperor and Happy was roughly equal!
If the experts from Longmen couldn’t even block the Emperor’s strike, what could they do against Happy?
The deputy head of Longmen experienced a moment of confusion and solemnity.
