Chapter 1959 - 1955: Borrowed Sword Intent!
Chapter 1959: Chapter 1955: Borrowed Sword Intent!
The formidable power leaked out, pushing the general far away.
As for the residents of the small town, they were forced to kneel, not daring to lift their heads.
The elderly man in green showed a sinister smile, as if he already envisioned the scene of Yue Sha being killed with a single palm strike.
The Qingming Immortal Sect is a top-tier sect guarding this planet, not as prestigious as the void’s great teachings or the Starry Sea Divine Sect, but still quite formidable.
This elderly man in green, being the law enforcement Great Elder, possesses a Great Luo cultivation level.
This level of strength is considered top-tier even in the Multiverse.
Thus, he could naturally see that Yue Sha seemed to be severely injured, with an undeniable weariness in his eyes.
That’s why he was confident that Yue Sha would be unable to withstand this palm strike.
At that moment, Yue Sha put his palms together and softly chanted, "All formations are impermanent, all life and death are phases, the phase extinguishes itself, and tranquility is joy!"
As the Buddhist incantation emerged, a Golden Wheel appeared faintly behind his head, and then it flourished in radiance, directly resisting the incoming Qingming Absolute Qi.
Dong!
After a muffled boom.
The Qingming Absolute Qi stagnated in the air, unable to advance.
Yue Sha’s golden light remained as unshakeable as the earth.
The elderly man in green was pushed back several steps, and only after a while of regulating his breathing did he manage to calm his boiling blood.
Then he roared, "You treacherous monk, you’re gravely injured; let’s see how long you can hold out!"
With that, the elderly man in green continuously launched attacks, each strike of Qingming Absolute Qi bombarded Yue Sha’s golden light with reckless abandon.
The muffled sounds of dong, dong, dong echoed one after another, causing immense shocks within people’s hearts.
Everyone watched this scene with pale faces.
Especially Ning Zhu, who stared blankly at Yue Sha facing the formidable enemy alone in the sky, her heart gradually tightening into a knot.
Xiao Yingluo, too, lost her usual ease. Her face was somewhat pale, yet she forced a smile, "Don’t worry, Uncle won’t get hurt; he’s not injured at all!"
But as soon as she finished speaking, they heard a cracking sound; a crack suddenly appeared on the Golden Wheel behind Yue Sha’s head, dimming the brilliance around him significantly.
The elderly man in green couldn’t help but burst into maniacal laughter at the sight.
"How about now? You finally can’t hold on, right? Today, I’ll make you pay with your life for my disciple!"
Saying this, his attacks became even more frenzied.
The golden light surrounding Yue Sha began to show signs of crumbling, with the Golden Wheel behind him incessantly cracking.
Tears burst from Ning Zhu’s eyes uncontrollably.
Xiao Yingluo was so scared that she became disoriented, suddenly shouting, "Uncle, you can’t let anything happen to you! You promised to take me home; you can’t break your word!"
Yue Sha did not turn back but raised a slight, faint smile at the corners of his mouth, "Of course, I won’t break my word!"
With that said, Yue Sha stepped forward.
It was precisely then that the golden light around him completely shattered into powder.
The Golden Wheel behind him shattered along with it.
The elderly man in green showed an expression of wild joy.
"Perish!"
He said, mobilizing his entire cultivation to deliver his strongest attack.
But just as he believed every detail of this attack was foolproof, Yue Sha suddenly lifted his head, and a sudden light appeared in his weary eyes.
Shortly after, a brilliant sword light coalesced at the center of his brows.
This sword, once it appeared, dominated heaven and earth.
The Qingming Absolute Qi that had just condensed in the elderly man’s hand directly dissipated, and feeling that overwhelming Sword Intent, his entire body was massively shaken, shrieking hoarsely.
"That’s impossible! Aren’t you a Buddhist cultivator? How can you have such formidable Sword Intent?"
Yue Sha said calmly, "Why can’t it be possible? You should know, this Sword Intent was borrowed!"
As he finished speaking, the sword light roared and slashed forth.
Desperation filled the elderly man in green’s scream, "No!"
Then he turned and attempted to flee.
But it was all too late.
With his speed, how could he possibly outrun the sword light?
A dazzling light cutting across heaven and earth swept through the sky.
Everything it passed was severed.
In an instant, people felt as if a Sharp Flash had torn through the sky, and when they opened their eyes again, everything had vanished.
Only the elderly man in green and his subordinates stood still in mid-air, immobilized like wooden statues or clay idols.
But in the next moment, a marvelous sight unfolded before everyone.
From that elderly man in green, a red line suddenly emerged along each person’s waist. The line rapidly expanded, and the upper bodies soared into the sky, blood gushing like springs and dyeing the heavens crimson.
Only then did the corpses fall in succession, leaving the sky empty.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Xiao Yingluo, however, was flushed with excitement, suddenly clapping and cheering.
"Uncle, you’re amazing!"
Yue Sha smiled, yet the fatigue in his eyes grew even more overwhelming, and then he landed back on the ground.
Xiao Yingluo immediately rushed over, joyfully proclaiming, "Uncle, that sword just now was incredible; I didn’t know you could use a sword! Can you teach me?"
Yue Sha barely concealed the weariness in his eyes, then shook his head with a faint smile, "I cannot teach you because, as I said, that sword is borrowed. If you want to learn, it’s best to find him!"
"Who is that person?" Xiao Yingluo, filled with curiosity, asked.
Yue Sha didn’t reply but looked resolutely at Ning Zhu beside him.
"Miss Ning, that sword already exposed my whereabouts and has probably attracted their attention, so you are temporarily safe. But to be cautious, I suggest you evacuate this town as soon as possible without delay!"
Ning Zhu shuddered, exclaiming with shock, "Sir, are you planning to leave?"
Yue Sha nodded, "Indeed, if I don’t leave, you will all be doomed. Now that I leave, I can draw all the attention towards me, allowing you to escape safely!"
Tears flowed from Ning Zhu’s eyes like a broken dam, never stopping from beginning to end.
"But... but..."
Yue Sha gave her no more time and clasped his hands together, "I wish you well, Miss, and may you find a good match and live a stable life in the future!"
With those words, Yue Sha said to Xiao Yingluo beside him, "Let’s go!"
With that, he stepped forward and walked towards the exit.
"Alright! Goodbye, sister!" Xiao Yingluo grabbed the cloak on the table and quickly followed.
Ning Zhu wanted to say something but couldn’t get the words out, only watching helplessly as Yue Sha’s figure left, her face filled with endless sorrow.
"Find a good match... But you are my perfect match!"
The shopkeeper of the eatery, who had remained silent all this while, sighed softly.
"Zhu’er, don’t watch anymore. This esteemed person’s identity is clearly extraordinary. Us ordinary families shouldn’t harbor delusions. Let’s go, and don’t squander his good intentions!"
Saying this, he pulled Ning Zhu away.
Once more, Ning Zhu looked at the disappearing silhouette in the distance, her heart filled with indescribable despair.
The residents of the small town naturally understood that this place couldn’t be stayed in, so they began an unplanned evacuation.
They hadn’t moved far from the town when several streaks of brilliance suddenly rushed into the sky above the town. After carefully feeling it,
the leader’s face suddenly turned ecstatic, "Indeed, it’s the Red Lotus Sword Intent; it must be Xue An, whom all the major sects have been looking for without success!"
