The four attacks were abrupt and quick, sending Zhao Haiyun who failed to dodge them flying away.

Chu Li furrowed his brows before making another move.

He saw the flying blades bounce off Zhao Haiyun’s body. This obviously meant that he was wearing a layer of treasured clothing that was able to deflect the blades.

Pieces of treasured clothing were something extremely rare. Normally, only those from the four major sects owned such treasured clothing. Since Zhao Haiyun had one as well, it was not surprising that he managed to escape from those who were hunting him down. It also indicated that he was an extraordinary identity.

The only reason Zhao Haiyun was sent flying was that the energy accumulated in the flying blades was too strong. Given that he could not stop them, he had no choice but to be pushed backward.

“Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk!” Following that, Chu Li attacked once more.

Zhao Haiyun, who was still in the air, used his palm to block the attacks. However, he could not stop the Light Blade; it pierced through his palm before moving into his shoulder.

The flying blades that hit Zhao Haiyun’s shoulders were deflected. Two were headed toward his throat.

“Ugh…” Zhao Haiyun quivered, and only managed to dodge one of the flying blades. Consequently, the other flying blade cut through his throat. With a splatter of blood being visible, the blade ended on the wall behind him.

The people around them were trembling in shock.

While the entire process sounded long, it happened within a few seconds. By the time the others had realized what had happened, they started shrieking.

“Junior Brother Zhao!” A thundering yell was heard. Two middle-aged men in blue outfits had just arrived when they witnessed the scene. Their faces had turned flustered as they shouted.

“Junior Brother Zhao!” They screamed his name again before flying toward the scene. One of them went to catch Zhao Haiyun, who was in the air, while the other charged toward Chu Li and Li Ruolan.

Chu Li sneered. With his left and right hands, he launched an attack on Zhao Haiyun and the middle-aged man, respectively.

The offensive launched were both energy blades that were gathered from his inner energy; they were also exceptionally fast and shockingly powerful.

Since Zhao Haiyun had already suffered a hit in his throat, he simply could not dodge this. As the middle-aged man caught him, the long sword at his waist turned into a light of electricity that resembled a light shield in front of them.

“Ding…” The long sword was swung away, and another blade hit Zhao Haiyun’s chest.

While the flying blade was blocked by his treasured clothing, both of them were still pushed away from the enormous force exerted from the blade; they were pushed back for about 10 meters, and almost hit the wall.

As for the other middle-aged man, he placed his sword in front of him as he charged toward Chu Li and Li Ruolan. When the energy blade hit his sword, it was launched away instantly, causing another energy blade to hit his right shoulder. Immediately, blood was seen splattering out of his shoulder, and he lost all energy to attack again.

Next, Li Ruolan uttered, “Let’s go!”

She then pulled Chu Li’s sleeve, and they left through the window together.

After Chu Li was dragged out of the window, he commented, “Senior sister, we shouldn’t leave.”

“They’re from Zhao Haiyun’s faction, we won’t be able to leave if we don’t leave now. There’ll be more coming!” Li Ruolan scoffed, “Indeed, Zhao Haiyun is from Qiu Dynasty, and is a disciple from a famous faction. As strong as we are, the two of us won’t stand a chance against an entire faction.”

The two of them zoomed into the sky, landed on a roof and continued fluttering away in the air, trying to leave the place.

“Bam!” An explosion of fireworks could be seen in the sky.

Chu Li turned and found that it had come from the restaurant they were at. Apparently, it was Zhao Haiyun and the men who were calling out to the other masters in their faction.

When Li Ruolan turned and saw what happened, she said, “See?”

Chu Li sighed. “We should’ve crippled them so that they can’t do that!”

Initially, he had already planned to disable their arms and chop Zhao Haiyun’s head off. Although his blade cut his throat, it was not guaranteed that he was certainly dead. Of course, the blade energy surely landed on his brain, and the chances of him surviving were low.

“They’re not our target, don’t cause more trouble for us.” Li Ruolan responded.

Chu Li smiled bitterly. “Senior sister, if they hunt us down intending to kill, you won’t think like that anymore. We should’ve crippled them.”

“Let’s speed up and return to the Li Dynasty before they catch up.” Li Ruolan simply instructed.

Chu Li nodded.

Since they were unfamiliar with the place, it would be difficult for them to hide. Therefore, it would be best that they escaped as fast as they could. They might be able to return to the Li Dynasty safely before their enemies could surround them.

The two of them traveled quickly with their light-body technique, sweeping past like the wind.

“Exactly which faction is Zhao Haiyun from?” Li Ruolan frowned.

Chu Li let out a sigh before answering, “Could it be the Hai Cang Mountain?”

“Zhao Haiyun…” Li Ruolan nodded slowly. “Mmm, it’s very possible that he’s a disciple of the Hai Cang Mountain!”

Once Chu Li reminded her, Li Ruolan suddenly recalled that all disciples from the Hai Cang Mountain had either the word Hai or Cang in their names. Those two represented different identities. Hai was used for official disciples, whereas Cang was used for external disciples.

“He’s actually an official disciple of the Hai Cang Mountain!” Li Ruolan looked sullen. “We’re going to be in huge trouble!”

“We’ll just have to escape before they catch up to us.” Chu Li was unconcerned.

However, Li Ruolan shook her head and explained, “It’s not easy to get rid of the Hai Cang Mountain, we have to be ready for a tough fight.”

Upon hearing her, Chu Li commented, “I was just thinking about experiencing the Hai Cang Mountain’s martial art!”

“Their swordsmanship is exceptional.” Li Ruolan added, “They’re one of the four major sects in the Qiu Dynasty, we must not underestimate them!”

While the two of them conversed, a long whistle was heard coming from somewhere ahead of them. Followed by that, four middle-aged men dressed in blue outfits fluttered toward them. As they approached, they wielded their long sword at them. Clearly, they recognized them.

Chu Li shook his head and sighed, “Sure enough, they’re really something. They managed to catch up so quickly!”

“This is strange!” Li Ruolan was puzzled. She was curious about how they knew that it was them. Besides, it was clear that the four men had not encountered them before.

As if he read Li Ruolan’s mind, Chu Li said to her disdainfully, “We’re the only ones who are running away, of course they know that it’s us!”

“Seriously…” Li Ruolan scorned and shook her head.

Soon enough, the four middle-aged men in blue clothing had neared them. They formed a net of swords as they swung their long swords, enveloping the two of them as if they were sparrows trapped in a cage.

Subsequently, Chu Li shot four energy blades.

“Ding, ding, ding, ding…” The four long swords were sent flying.

With that, Chu Li pulled Li Ruolan into his arms, and they flew past the four men.

Since half of their bodies were numb, the men could only watch them leave, unable to do anything about it.

Li Ruolan glared at them, then said plainly, “If you hunt us down again, don’t blame us for being merciless!”

Right away, the faces of those four men turned dark. They stared at the two of them until they eventually disappeared.

“What an amazing Light Blade!” One of the middle-aged men expressed in a low tone, “Looks like the news was right, that was indeed a disciple from the Holy Church of Light. The Light Blade is known to have formidable power. Tell the others to be cautious!”

“It’s best to not force an attack!” Another middle-aged man added.

“The person who gave us the news had bad intentions!” The third middle-aged men mentioned, “That guy was such a powerful figure. How many disciples from the faction will we lose just to kill me? It’s not worth the loss!”

“He’s here to kill Junior Brother Zhao Haiyun, how can we just watch with folded arms?”

“I heard that Junior Brother Zhao created quite a mess in Li Dynasty, he went overboard!”

“Regardless, we can’t allow the Holy Church of Light to act presumptuously in the Qiu Dynasty!”

“Ugh… Alright, let’s continue to hunt them down!”

As soon as their bodies recovered, they picked up their long swords and dashed toward the direction into which Chu Li and Li Ruolan disappeared.

They were already struck with terror. If their enemy was able to hit their long swords away with just one blade, it was obvious that his cultivation level was extremely profound. By facing him again, they were simply having a death wish. That being said, they could not shy away from this, seeing as they were disciples from the Hai Cang Mountain.
