Just as Andrew was still standing in the Martial Arts Bureau, a cold voice suddenly came from behind him.
“I really didn’t expect that you actually knew to come back. I’ve been waiting for you here for a long time. Today, I will settle the score with you properly.”
Andrew was stunned. The moment he turned around, he realized that Lingyu was holding a long sword in her hand. She had appeared behind him. Moreover, the figure that Lingyu was displaying had become exceptionally unfamiliar.
He had a feeling that he had seen Lingyu in this state before. However, he could not place his finger on it.
The corner of Lingyu’s mouth revealed a cold smile.
“Do I look familiar? Have you forgotten what you did to me in the Alps?”
Andrew suddenly came to a realization. The expression on Lingyu was the same one he had when he was dealing with the black shadow in the Alps.
His face showed confusion. The black shadow in the Alps had been sealed by him. How could it appear here for no reason? Could it be…
But now was not the time to think so much. In a flash, he released the immortal Qi to support the Dustless Sword. He said to Lingyu with a cold expression, “I really didn’t expect that you would be able to escape after being sealed by me. However, this is also just right. I can finish you off today.”
As he spoke, Andrew took a step forward and disappeared in front of Lingyu.
Lingyu changed her target and rushed towards Annie and Clayton, who were fainted on the ground.
A trace of anger flashed across Andrew’s face.
It was impossible for him to catch up to her with his current speed.
In the blink of an eye, a long sword appeared in Lingyu’s hand. Under the blessing of the black Qi, it was placed on Annie’s neck.
Lingyu was smart. When the sword was on Annie’s neck, she did not rush to make a move. Instead, she spoke to Andrew in a cold voice.
“Put away your cultivation. Otherwise, your good sister might suffer greatly in a while.”
Andrew’s expression flash with anger. However, what could he do now? The lives of Annie and Clayton were in Lingyu’s hands.
After thinking for a while, he could only grit his teeth and put away the Dustless Sword.
“What do you want? This is a grudge between you and me. Don’t involve others.”
Lingyu revealed a teasing smile.
“You think I used all my strength to escape for what? Just to seek revenge on you. If it weren’t for you, I would have killed those gods.”
Andrew could clearly feel that the strength of this black shadow was not as strong as before. It could even be said that it was not even one-tenth of his previous strength.
A disdainful smile appeared on Andrew’s face.
“Looking for revenge? If I’m not wrong, your current strength is not even one-tenth of what it was before. How can you seek revenge? If you release the two of them, I can spare you. Moreover, I will never interfere in anything between you and the Mountain of Gods from now on.”
As he spoke, Andrew placed his hand behind his back and pulled out his Azure Dragon Sword. He infused immortal Qi into the sword. After all, he did not understand the character of Lingyu.
As a precaution, he could only do this. Moreover, as long as the sword in Lingyu’s hand was just a little bit away from Annie’s neck, he had absolute confidence that he could kill Lingyu.
Lingyu was stunned. However, she quickly replied, “I know that I’m not your match now, but do you think that I can let go of such a good opportunity? At most, the two of us will perish together.”
She drew the sword in her hand towards Annie’s neck once again.
The sword cut a shallow wound. It would not harm Annie’s life, though.
However, when he saw the wound on Annie’s neck, Andrew’s face turned pale. He brandished the Azure Dragon Sword.
“I gave you a chance to live, but you didn’t cherish it and forced me to make a move. Today, I’ll satisfy you. Do you think I was talking nonsense just now?”
In fact, Andrew had absolute confidence in killing Lingyu. However, in order to not let Annie suffer any harm, he had not done so.
He never expected that Lingyu had already cut a wound on Annie’s neck. He did not need to be so patient.
Lingyu’s face flashed with a trace of fear. Before she could react, Andrew took a step forward and disappeared without a trace.
Lingyu hurriedly turned out her own black Qi to support her body. She could not care about anything else. She threw Annie out of her hand.
Andrew had already rushed to the front of Lingyu, but when he saw Annie being thrown out, he suddenly stopped and took a few steps back.
He caught Annie and made sure that she was okay. Then, Andrew stood up again and released his cultivation.
Andrew was furious. He stared at Lingyu coldly.
