Chapter 307 - Resentful Love

“What!”

Xiaoyue was shocked. Her face was full of horror. After her attack of Ruthless Autumn Water, he was still able to still stand up!

The crowd below started to cheer. Some of them who were not initially optimistic about Yu Yifeng began to root for him as well. Hanxi held onto Ziling’s arm and exclaimed, “Senior sister! Look! I told you, Master will never lose!”

Ziling wiped her tears and broke into a smile. She shouted, “Master, you can do it!”

Xiao Chen, who was next to them, felt a heartache suddenly. Brother Yifeng knew very well that if this continued, his cultivation would be hurt badly. Were these two little disciples of his the reason why he persevered…?

Suddenly, his heart was in pain and it hurt so bad.

The crowd kept on cheering. On the high platform, Tai Yi, Perfected Immortal of the Order of the Countless Blades, shook his head and smiled, “Qing Chen, this disciple of yours is such a rare gem.”

However, this time, Qing Chen Perfected Immortal kept quiet. His eyebrows tangled in a frown and his eyes closely followed every move of Yu Yifeng on the Floating Platform.

Suddenly, a few white lights rushed into the sky from the Floating Platform. The clouds that were blown away earlier had started to gather back in. No… it was not the clouds that had gathered, it was the energy between the heavens and the earth that had gathered together. All of it was directed into Yu Yifeng’s body.

Almost everyone felt an overpowering Immortal Force at this moment, and they shouted, “This! What is going on!”

Yu Yifeng kept pointing at every major acupuncture point on his body. He was then gradually covered by a layer of white glow. At this moment, he stood on top of the Floating Platform. His clothes danced with the wind, just like an Immortal from the Heaven Realm who had arrived in the human world.

Xiaoyue’s face changed. She felt a terrifying force in the body of Yu Yifeng that was gradually emerging. Before she could think, she went at him with a slash. However, just as the sword was about to hit Yu Yifeng, she suddenly seemed to be blocked by a strong force. Following a shock, she flew out.

On the high platform, Qing Chen Perfected Immortal’s face changed as well and he said, “He wants to unlock the seal of the past! Yifeng! Stop!” In a flash, he transformed into a sword radiance and rushed to the Floating Platform.

The Annihilation Times were approaching. The older generation, such as Qing Chen Perfected Immortal, had such high cultivation. He broke the Body-protection Qi of Yu Yifeng in a single move. Then he hit several forces into his body.

Yu Yifeng spurted out a mouthful of blood, his face turned white and he fell slowly. Qing Chen Perfected Immortal held him up. He turned to Xiaoyue and said, “This game, you’ve won.” Bringing Yu Yifeng with him, he flew down to the square below.

Xiaoyue was incredibly pale. If she did not have the immortal force of the Autumn Water Sword protecting her body from that shock, she would have been injured badly. Never did she expect that such a terrifying force was sealed in Yu Yifeng’s body.

Qing Chen Perfected Immortal brought Yu Yifeng to where the Jade Qing Sect was. Hanxi and Ziling immediately rushed up and cried, “Master…”

Yu Yifeng was still conscious. He forced a smile and said, “I’m fine…”

Qing Chen Perfected Immortal sighed. He looked at Zi Mo and said, “Junior Brother, bring Yifeng back to rest first.”

The battle between Yu Yifeng and Xiaoyue was so exciting that the discussion amongst the crowd continued for a long time. The next round was Huangfu Xin’er against Li Muxue.

Xiao Chen’s brows gradually shrouded with a layer of sadness. This was the last battle he ever wanted to watch. The words that he said to Li Muxue yesterday telling her to give up must have broken her heart. Thus, she was not seen the entire day.

A few moments later, a red figure could be seen in the distance flying up to the Floating Platform. It immediately brought about a loud cheer from the crowd below. It was Huangfu Xin’er.

Huangfu Xin’er stood on the Floating Platform, and her robes danced with the wind. Her face looked stone-cold and emotionless. After a while, as her opponent still did not show up on stage, the crowd below began to talk.

Xiao Chen looked left and right and still did not see the appearance of Li Muxue. “Well, it would be better if she doesn’t show up…” he thought.

However, before they could conclude, a sword radiance outside the square came flying. The person on the sword was in a white robe, and there was no sadness or joy on their face. That person slowly landed on the Floating Platform.

This dropped a bomb on everyone in the square and the commotion began. The contestants in this round had the greatest disparity in strength. But was it possible for Li Muxue to be like Yu Yifeng from the previous round, to have her body sealed with some mysterious power as well?

Many people began to speculate. Xiao Chen’s eyebrows were locked deeply. Next to him, Murong Xian’er pulled his sleeves and said, “Brother Xiao Chen, don’t worry, everything’s going to be fine…”

Zhiluan placed its paws in front of its chest and it said carelessly, “Something is going to happen, something is definitely going to happen. These two women are put together…” Murong Xian’er immediately glared at him and said, “Greedy cat! Don’t spout nonsense here! Otherwise, I won’t take you home with me!”

On the Floating Platform, Huangfu Xin’er looked coldly at Li Muxue. The color of resentment flashed through her eyes. “This is the woman, this is the woman, kill her!”

Li Muxue pointed her sword at Huangfu Xin’er and said coldly, “Begin the battle, I won’t lose to you!”

“Hah,” sneered Huangfu Xin’er. As her body moved, she was instantly in front of Li Muxue, and then she hit her with a palm.

Li Muxue immediately defended with her sword. Unfortunately, because the force came too suddenly, she did not manage to block it in time. She was knocked back three feet. Before she could even react, Huangfu Xin’er once again teleported, and this time, it was behind her. Hit by another palm force, Li Muxue flew out.

The crowd below exclaimed. It was impossible to fight, Li Muxue had might as well admit defeat. Xiao Chen frowned harder.

Li Muxue landed back onto the stage and went at Huangfu Xin’er with compound sword attacks, one after another. Halfway through her attacks, countless sword shadows emerged in midair. It soon shrouded almost the entire battleground. All of it moved so fast that one could not tell which was real and which was not.

In the face of the sword rain, even with Huangfu Xin’er’s high cultivation, it would not be easy to retreat entirely. However, with a smirk and putting two fingers together, she managed to pinch the Immortal’s Sword of Li Muxue directly.

“What? Is that all you got?”

“Clink!” Huangfu Xin’er broke Li Muxue’s Immortal’s Sword into pieces with force. The broken pieces flew out as the sound fell. Li Muxue was also pushed out by this force and landed near the edge of the Floating Platform.

“I don’t understand how he fell for a good-for-nothing like you. When he is in danger, you can only watch on from the side, isn’t it…”

Huangfu Xin’er spoke the words slowly and strolled up to her. Li Muxue cast a healing spell on herself hurriedly. She was only good at healing spells. She did not have as much fighting experience as Huangfu Xin’er, not to mention that Huangfu Xin’er’s cultivation was so much higher than hers.

Then, she pinched her fingers and six Immortal’s Swords were formed again. All of them went slashing at Huangfu Xin’er in the hope that she would retreat. However, with a smirk, a powerful force rushed out of Huangfu Xin’er sleeve as she flicked it. The six Immortal’s Swords were smashed to pieces immediately.

Then as her hand stretched out, Li Muxue immediately seemed to be caught by the throat by an invisible force and was brought over to Huangfu Xin’er.

“Just you alone, you think you can beat me?”

Huangfu Xin’er lifted her into the air. Her voice was ice-cold. Everyone below was stunned. Many of them could sense the resentment in Huangfu Xin’er, which was particularly obvious at this moment. But they were not sure why.

Being squeezed by the throat, Li Muxue’s face flushed red, she was suffocating. Suddenly, a white ray shot out from the crescent white jade on her neck and shot straight at Huangfu Xin’er.

That white jade was the jade note that Xiao Chen had once given her. It had already begun to have the ability to protect its Lord. But it was refined when Xiao Chen was at the Foundation Building Realm. Could it block the current Huangfu Xin’er’s attack?

On the contrary, Huangfu Xin’er recognized the power of the jade, and she was even more resentful. She slammed her out with a loud bellow. The force was so great that the rocks broke into pieces.

Li Muxue staggered and stood up from the gravel pile. She was unable to take care of her injuries and she formed another three Immortal’s Swords, slashing at Huangfu Xin’er.

As Huangfu Xin’er shouted, the three swords flying at her shattered immediately. Suddenly, a murderous aura emerged from her body and spread out. Even the crowd far below could feel the thrill from this murderous aura at this moment.

Her lips turned dark red in an instant. Her 10 fingernails also skyrocketed three inches. Then, five red lights flashed and they went straight at Li Muxue neck. They were unstoppable and had a motive to kill.

The crowd below was horrified. Even the few elders on the high platform lost the color in their faces as well. These five red lights were hardly defendable, even by a cultivator at the Nascent Soul Realm. On that day in the Forest of Illusory Moon, Zuo Qiuyang was also hurt by the five red lights.

Just when the five red lights were less than a foot away from Li Muxue and it was obvious that she was going to die, a figure suddenly appeared and blocked them in front of her.

“Xin’er, stop…”
