Chapter 406, Dare to Fight Back? Don’t Make Me Kill You!
Translator: Silavin
Lu Fan’s voice was not loud – just barely audible to Ye Wuxian.
But upon hearing Lu Fan’s voice, Ye Wuxian immediately felt a surge of security wash over her.
She had complete faith in Lu Fan’s words. Facing Huang Yutian’s Skill, she actually stood her ground without dodging or defending, leaving herself completely open.
Huang Yutian was puzzled by what Ye Wuxian was doing. She was exposing such a clear opening. However, he would never pass up the opportunity to strike – if he accidentally killed Ye Wuxian, it no longer mattered at this point.
“Peerless Sword Formation!” With Huang Yutian’s shout, seven flying swords stopped trembling, as if frozen in time, completely motionless.
The next second, a white light flashed across their blades, then all seven flying swords flew out together. Each flying sword carried an incomparably sharp aura, splitting the air and creating a vacuum.
There were not any flashy effects, Even so, the power of Huang Yutian’s Skill was genuinely stronger than any Fourth Profession Player’s Divine Grade Skills.
The fierce wind made Ye Wuxian’s hair dance and clothes flutter, but she remained standing in place without even blinking.
Just as the seven flying swords instantly reached Ye Wuxian’s face, they suddenly stopped mid-air as if hitting an invisible wall.
The power of the seven flying swords continued to leak out, seemingly trying to pierce through this wall. However, streams of golden light emanated from the sword tips, consistently blocking the flying swords, preventing them from advancing even a millimetre.
Seeing this situation, Huang Yutian’s eyes widened in shock. He could sense that clearly some entity was standing in front of Ye Wuxian, helping her block his attack.
But from start to finish, Huang Yutian had never sensed anyone in Concealment nearby!
[Could there really be a powerful Assassin here, whose presence even I cannot detect!?] While Huang Yutian was still stunned, suddenly a *whooshing* sound rang out.
Following that was the sound of a blade cutting through flesh.
Huang Yutian felt a pain in his back, clearly having been ambushed.
He staggered, immediately recalled his seven flying swords, then without any hesitation, promptly directed the flying swords to attack behind him.
Sure enough, the flying swords seemed to hit some invisible being in mid-air, after which that invisible being struck back, knocking Huang Yutian’s flying swords away.
[There really is an enemy in Concealment!!] Huang Yutian was greatly alarmed. His figure flickered, leaving behind afterimages, and in just a moment he had retreated several meters away.
His back was burning with pain. Without looking, he knew there were now two bone-deep wounds carved by blades. Though not fatal, it served as a harsh wake-up call for Huang Yutian.
His instincts were not wrong – there was really an Assassin here.
Huang Yutian activated Sword Overcomes Illusions again, but once more came up with nothing.
He had completely lost his previous composure, because he knew exactly how threatening an invisible Assassin could be to him!
What surprised Huang Yutian did not stop there though.
At this moment, not far in front of Ye Wuxian, where the flying swords had been blocked, a figure materialized from nothingness, revealing its true form.
It was none other than Loong Erhu!
Loong Erhu looked incredibly lifelike, showing no signs of anything amiss except for his expressionless face.
Golden light blazed from his body, clearly having activated all his Defensive Skills, which was how he had helped Ye Wuxian block Huang Yutian’s attack.
“Loong Erhu!?” Upon seeing Loong Erhu, Huang Yutian felt his brain could not process what was happening.
If Loong Erhu was helping Ye Wuxian fight against him now, he could understand it as the Ye Family and Loong Family reaching some sort of agreement before he had arrived.
However, Loong Erhu was just a Golden Monk – how did he learn Concealment Skills?
Moreover, it was such an advanced Concealment Skill that even he could not see through!
Also, if it was Loong Erhu who helped Ye Wuxian block the attack, then who was it that ambushed him!?
Why did everything about the Ye Family seem so bizarre?!
Huang Yutian felt things had spiraled beyond his control and was already considering fleeing from here.
Meanwhile, seeing Huang Yutian wounded, Ye Wuxian felt extremely satisfied.
However, she did not want to team up with Loong Erhu to deal with Huang Yutian.
So, she directly said, “Junior Brother, let Loong Erhu deal with the other Loong Family members. It’s disgusting to team up with him.”
Lu Fan, hidden in the shadows, could not help but chuckle. “Alright then, I’ll have a Shadow Dragon Human King assist you from the side. Fight as much as you want- I guarantee you’ll completely dominate Huang Yutian.”
“Hehe, it feels great to have someone backing me up. In that case, I’m going in. Today, I’m going to make Huang Yutian pay for everything he has done!” Ye Wuxian smiled, completely appearing as if she could easily handle Huang Yutian. She immediately attacked, launching a fierce assault on Huang Yutian.
Huang Yutian’s back was now covered in cold sweat. Not daring to stay here any longer, he used three flying swords to block Ye Wuxian, then turned to flee.
However, just as he rode the flying swords into the air, countless wind blades suddenly erupted in front of him. They caught him off guard and blasted him down from mid-air.
Huang Yutian felt like cursing. [There is clearly nothing in front of me! What kind of expert are you, to show off your power here while in hiding!? Damn it! But, I can’t fight an enemy I can’t even detect!]
Not only that, but after Huang Yutian was blocked, Ye Wuxian had also broken through his defence lines and was now charging in with her spear.
Huang Yutian had no choice but to hastily counterattack while staying alert for the Concealed enemy.
Having to split his attention, Huang Yutian’s exchanges with Ye Wuxian were no longer as composed as before. Many times he would even find himself pressured by Ye Wuxian.
As for Ye Wuxian, she fought ever more fiercely, thoroughly enjoying herself.
Whenever Huang Yutian got angry and tried to counterattack, the Concealed enemy would suddenly strike, injuring him.
These wounds were not severe, but as this continued, Huang Yutian’s situation grew increasingly dark. Moreover, he could now tell that the opponent definitely had the ability to kill him if they so choose to do so.
It was just that the Concealed opponent refused to make the killing blow. Instead, they chose to torment him and let him become Ye Wuxian’s practice dummy.
This made Huang Yutian feel like his hands and feet were bound, only able to be beaten up by Ye Wuxian.
Whenever he showed any signs of fighting back, a mysterious force would give him a ‘slap’ and scold, ‘Dare to fight back!? Don’t make me kill you!’
