Killing move: 0019

  "Rumble!"

  Half an hour later, the central area of the Hanshui Mountains suddenly erupted with a series of deafening roars, one after another, shaking the earth and stunning all directions, startling countless crows and sparrows into chaotic flight.

  "I hope nothing happens!" Under an ancient tree that reached the sky, a woman in a long purple dress gazed tenderly towards the central area of the Hanshui Mountains, which was exactly where Li Ke had rushed into.

  "Who?" Suddenly, Zhong Qing furrowed her brow, and she clearly felt several breaths approaching her. Her gaze turned around, staring at her own back, and said in a low voice.

  "Huh?" Behind Zhong Qing, a puzzled voice sounded from the dense forest with ancient trees blocking out the sky. Immediately after, the sound of rustling grass was heard, and seven people walked out from within the dense forest.

  Among the seven, the first one was extremely handsome, wearing a golden robe with a pair of long knives embroidered on his chest. The knife light flashed, and the young man in gold walked out, his eyes fixed on Zhong Qing's plump chest, chuckling: "In this desolate mountain wilderness, such a beautiful girl is waiting for whom?"

  "Waiting for Mr. Right?"

  The boy in golden clothes raised the corner of his mouth and smiled lewdly.

  Her beautiful eyebrows furrowed slightly, and a cold glint flashed in her bright eyes as she said in a chilly voice, "Who are you waiting for? What business do you have with me?"

  The young man in golden clothes suddenly turned pale, and a orange light flashed in his hand. A Guixi knife appeared out of thin air, its blade radiating cold light and emitting a fierce killing aura.

  Zhong Qing's figure slightly retreated half a step, his face darkening as he said, "What do you want?"

  "Haha!" The young man in golden clothes burst out laughing, with a sly glint in his eyes, and said coldly: "In the wilderness, a lovely maiden, a young youth, what else can I do?"

  "There's no other meaning to it! I just want to have some fun! This period of time, in order to chase and kill that stinky little brat, has almost driven me crazy! Looking at you, still a virgin, is perfect for me to vent my frustrations!" The young man in golden clothes looked up and down at Zhong Qing, letting out a strange laugh.

  "Haha, little girl still followed us Xu Shao! From now on, you'll have a good life!"

  "It's just, it's just..."

  Several other boys also followed with strange cries, their eyes all shining with lust.

  Zhong Qing's face changed color, and a cold light shot out from his eyes. His left hand slightly reached back.

  "Daydream!"

  With a wave of her hand, she retreated, coldly shouting out. Her left hand flipped over, and in an instant, a purple wooden zither appeared in her hand.

  "Musical Instrument Soul!"

  "Entity Buster!"

  The young man in golden clothes fell in love at first sight and took out a purple wooden zither. His eyes suddenly lit up, and he was slightly surprised.

  "Haha, interesting! Interesting!" In an instant, the golden-haired youth's face once again revealed a lewd smile, and his gaze towards Zhongqing also changed.

  "Little girl, I advise you to surrender obediently and not make futile resistance. Although the Instrumental Soul is special, you are alone, while I have seven Refining Soldiers who are masters of the high-level martial arts!"

  "Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless!" The young man in golden clothes gripped his knife tightly with his right hand, increasing the force, and stepped closer to Zhong Qing, his mouth slightly tilted upwards.

  "Brush!"

  The sword light flashed together, like a long river sunset. This knife, with momentum like a thunderbolt, instantly slashed towards Zhongqing.

  "Stop!"

  Right at this moment!

  "Whoosh!"

  A blood-red light flashed fiercely, "Clang!" It struck the long knife in the hand of the golden-robed youth, deflecting the Soul-Returning Guixi Knife.

  "Who's there?" The young man in golden clothes turned his head and looked towards the center of the Hanshui Mountains.

  Behind an ancient tree, a figure in white emerged slowly. His sword-like eyebrows rose slightly, and his starry eyes gleamed with a fierce killing intent, fixed intently on the golden-robed youth.

  "Li Ke!"

  The young man in golden clothes smiled gloomily as soon as he saw Li Ke, and chuckled: "It's true that there's a road to heaven but you don't take it, and there's no gate to hell but you charge right in!"

  "Today is your day of death!"

  "Now, you immediately come over and kneel down for me, otherwise, I will definitely make you suffer a thousand hardships even in death!"

  Li Ke listened to the golden-robed youth's shouting, ignoring him, and instead looked at the robust man standing behind the youth, who was holding a silver knife with snowflake patterns. It was Xu Zheng, the one Li Ke had defeated with one move and killed in front of him, along with the last scion of the Xu family from Hanshui, Xu Ting. Li Ke immediately understood the situation and looked at the golden-robed youth, saying: "You're Xu Liang, aren't you? A disciple of the Double Blade Sect's inner door! The sole disciple of Third Elder Xu Liu! You're the one who went to the Iron Horse House to kill me, right? It seems that Xu Liu knew I had come down from the mountain, so he sent you to hunt me down!"

  "Haha! Not bad……" The young man in golden clothes was Xu Liang, who wore the uniform of an inner disciple of the Double Blade Sect. Xu Liang was one of the elite inner disciples of the Double Blade Sect and had hopes of being promoted to a core disciple. He was known as one of the top ten inner disciples and was called the East Wind Young Master.

  Xu Liang left the Twin Blades Sect this time with only one mission, that is to personally behead Li Ke!

  "You were lucky last time, Iron Horse Hall, but today you won't be so lucky!" Xu Liang held the Soul of the Army, Gui Xi knife, step by step approaching Li Ke. Behind him, the other six golden-robed youths also simultaneously drew their Souls, and Xu Zheng grasped the Soul of Snowflake Bright Silver Knife, closely following behind.

  Xu Liang took a step forward, slowly closing in on Li Ke. When the distance between them was only a few feet, Xu Liang said in a low voice: "Kid, be smart and hand over your cultivation method for the Refining Soldier Realm. I can spare your life, otherwise don't blame me for being ruthless! Not only will I kill you, but also humiliate this woman in front of you!"

  Li Ke's eyes flashed with a murderous intent as soon as he heard Xu Liang's words. What he hated the most was bullying women.

  "Don't even think about it!"

  "You Xu family have been looking for trouble with me three times already! Today, leave your lives behind!"

  Li Ke's eyes turned cold, and the flying knife in his hand suddenly appeared, its icy blade gleaming with a fierce blood light.

  "Looking for death!"

  Xu Liang saw the situation, suddenly let out a loud shout, his voice like thunder, his hand holding the Gui Xi knife slanting across the empty air, one move "Water Flows East", directly aiming for Li Ke's head. This knife was like a high mountain and flowing water, its momentum frightening, accompanied by a faint rumbling sound.

  "Flowing Water Sword Technique!"

  Li Ke recognized the military strategy used by Xu Liang at a glance, which was a top-notch yellow-level military strategy - Flowing Water Knife Method. When the knife was drawn, it was like a high mountain and flowing water, with an astonishing momentum, invincible and domineering. Moreover, the most terrifying thing about the Flowing Water Knife Method was its speed!

  As swift as flowing water, instantaneous and effortless.

  "Only the second stage of Refining Soldier Realm!" Xu Liang smiled coldly, and the Soul of the Sword, Gui Xi, in his hand was refined into four forms, which was exactly the power of the fourth stage of Refining Soldier Realm.

  "How dare you utter such arrogant words!"

  "You don't even know how to write the character for 'death'!"

  Facing Xu Liang's unmatched flowing water knife technique, Li Ke was as calm as if he didn't see it, not dodging or evading, directly raising his knife to meet it. His body spun around, a flurry of white shadows, leaving Xu Liang dazed for a moment.

  "Vanish into thin air!"

  A flash of knife light passed by, leaving no shadow or trace!

  "What an extraordinary skill!" Xu Liang was shocked in his heart.

  "Whoosh!" The Nine Dragon Transformation was displayed, and Li Ke's body moved. In an instant, two Li Kes appeared, and the flying knife in his hand shattered the void in a split second.

  Against Xu Liang's four-layered Battle Formation, Li Ke wants a quick battle and swift victory. As soon as he makes his move, it will be a fatal blow!
