Chapter 363: Death

A few minutes ago.

Gritting his teeth, Ye Tian Yun had gone straight for the guard who was about to kill Xiao Ming.

Seeing him approaching, the guard smirked and took out a sword from his spatial ring in his free hand.

Just when Ye Tian Yun was a few feet away from him, the guard immediately slashed his sword.

Ye Tian Yun moved his wrists and blocked the incoming sword Qi slash!

Both of his hands had a sword, forming an 'X' to block the attack.

However, the attack was still powerful and agonizing - it ripped through Ye Tian Yun's robes and even scratched his skin.

However, he wasn't affected much, and as soon as the pressure stopped, Ye Tian Yun made his move -

'One Sword For All!'

*siu!*

The Core Formation Realm guard, however, easily blocked his attack.

"Brat, don't you see the difference in our cultivation? The only reason why you're still alive is that I want to have some fun." The guard smirked.

Ye Tian Yun gritted his teeth and went for another attack -

But this time, the guard frowned, "Alright, if that's what you want."

He moved his hand and threw the powerless body of Xiao Ming in the air and then headed straight for Ye Tian Yun!

Before Ye Tian Yun could complete his move, the guard was already above his head.

He smirked as he saw the expression of utter fear and despair in Ye Tian Yun's eyes and slashed his sword right through his head.

*plop!*

Ye Tian Yun couldn't resist, and his body was sliced into two halves!

"Trash, hmph!" The guard grunted and turned his head towards Yuan Shuchun - his next target.

Just then, a bad premonition overcame his senses, 'Oh no!'

Before he could fly away-

*siu*

*plop*

"AARGHHHH!!!!!" The guard cried out loud as his arm fell on the ground!

Ye Tian Yun appeared and once again went for the head - unfortunately, the guard had already gone out of range.

"You brat!" The guard covered his fleshed arm and cried out loud.

Ye Tian Yun took a fighting position - ready to attack.

He gave a side glance at Jun Xie, and both of their eyes met - nodding their heads, they acknowledged the cooperation.

Just a few seconds ago, when the guard attacked Ye Tian Yun, Jun Xie used his illusion technique at the right time - making the Guard 'see' himself cutting the enemy in half.

However, in reality, Ye Tian Yun had moved from his position and had sliced his sword on the Guard's head.

Unfortunately, the illusion lasted for that mere instant, and the guard became aware of this trick.

He immediately flew in the air, but the sword had already come close to him. However, the sword missed his neck and hit him just below his shoulder - cutting his arm.

Staring at the guard, Ye Tian Yun prepared himself for another attack - the guard was not severely weakened. It still wasn't enough to turn around the situation.

In the air, the guard took a pill, and after easing the pain, he went straight for Ye Tian Yun.

Ye Tian Yun brandished both of his swords and was ready to defend.

However, something unexpected happened - right before the guard reached Ye Tian Yun, he changed direction!

"Fuck!" In the exact instance, Ye Tian Yun knew what the guard was up to - he was going after Jun Xie!

Jun Xie, despite having high cultivation, he was weak in combat because he focused more on his Spirit Sense - and the gap of power between the guard and him was so much that he couldn't even do anything but stare at the approaching death!

In the next moment, the guard moved his sword and sliced at Jun Xie's chest.

With this illusion technique useless, Jun Xie could only confront the guard with this sword; unfortunately, the gap between the power was too much.

The Guard's sword cut through Jun Xie's chest, and then, turning his body, the guard gave a powerful kick to Jun Xie.

*bang!*

Jun Xie's body slammed on the opposite wall.

He wasn't breathing!

Nor was his heart beating!

….

"NO!!!!!!"

Ye Tian Yun's face was filled with shock and disbelief as he stared at the unmoving body of Jun Xie.

'Fuck fuck fuck fuck!'

Ye Tian Yun gritted his teeth - his mind suddenly became blank.

Jun Xie was not supposed to die!

How the fuck was he dead!?

Ye Tian Yun couldn't believe what had just happened.

'He died because of me…'

Ye Tian Yun regretted the fact that he had secretly signaled Jun Xie to create the illusion earlier to trick the guard.

Unfortunately, the guard had survived and killed Jun Xie.

'Fuck, I didn't even tell him about his father… what will I tell his father… ugh..'

This was Ye Tian Yun's biggest regret at the moment.

Jun Xie's father was very close to Ye Tian Yun, and now Jun Xie died because of Ye Tian Yun.

Before he could come back to his senses - the guard had suddenly moved!

*bang* 

The guard went for a kick and sent Ye Tian Yun flying.

Ye Tian Yun landed on the corpses of the horses that got cut by the array when the ambush began.

"Brat, you won't die this easily… I will take out every ounce of your blood."

The guard gritted his teeth and then focused once again on Yuan Shuchun.

He was now going to target her!

"Duan Ming!" As soon as he turned, Yuan Shuchun immediately shouted Peak Master Duan's name.

It may seem cowardice, but this was the only solution in this situation.

Her shout even confused the guard and made him on alert.

The guard jumped and flew in the air, staring all around. He tried to look for any hidden enemy.

"Hmph!" Seeing no one coming, the guard went straight for the kill.

Ye Tian Yun saw this and immediately moved.

He wasn't looking for a chance to save Yuan SHuchun, but rather wanted to catch the Core Formation Realm cultivator off guard!

'Sword Intent! Come out!'

Ye Tian Yun gritted his teeth and used all his strength towards the guard.

In the next instant - a huge shockwave exploded with Ye Tian Yun at its center.

Dark clouds converged in the sky and covered the sun.

*crackle!*

*boom!*

Lightning struck the ground out of nowhere, and before anyone could judge what was going on, another bolt of lightning came and hit the guard!

….
