At this moment, the sharp light of the blade is like a thread of dawn, cutting through the sky.
The roaring True Qi is like a great river breaking its banks, surging towards Pei Xuanjing in an instant.
Zing!
A clear-sounding sword cry resounds, overriding all other sounds.
Everyone feels as if their awareness has been severed by the sound of the sword cry. There was nothing between heaven and earth, but this clear sword cry.
B0x.comCaught off guard, even Bai Xiaosheng and Taoist Qingxu are momentarily stunned.
Once the two of them recovered, their eyes, when they looked at Pei Xuanjing, were filled with shock and disbelief.
If they had previously regarded Pei Xuanjing with the slight condescension of seniority, such thoughts instantly dissipated at this moment.
Their momentary loss of focus meant that they too could have potentially died had they been confronting Pei Xuanjings sword unprotected.
By the time Yu Zhenzi and the others regained their composure, their gaze towards Pei Xuanjing was filled with lingering fear. That sword strike would likely be difficult to erase from their hearts.
Whoosh whoosh
The gust sweeps by, dispersing the dust. Pei Xuanjing stand there with his sword, while Wei Qianli and Wei Wanli stand there with a look of deep shock.
Clang!
The dagger smashes to the ground, and both brothers fall as well, lifeless.
The might of one sword, so terrifying.
Spurt!
Pei Xuanjing suddenly looks flushed, and coughs up a mouthful of clotted blood.
The sword strike he just unleashed more or less drained all his strength, and as he planned, killed the two men.
However, the two brothers were not powerless. The final strike by Wei Qianli was nearly as fierce as Pei Xuanjings sword.
If his body was not so tough, the result would have been mutual destruction.
Even though Pei Xuanjing emerged victorious, the unparalleled blade light had wounded him severely: his strong bones and muscles were damaged, his internal organs displaced.
Pei Xuanjing tried to retrieve an elixir from his robe to heal his injuries, only to find that both the elixir and bottle had been destroyed during the battle. Even his treasured robe was marked with countless slashes, thoroughly tattered.
Take this. Taoist Qingxu seeing Pei Xuanjing injured, lightly flicked his sleeve, and a jade bottle flew out from inside, landing in Pei Xuanjings hand.
Thank you, Taoist Priest. Pei Xuanjing took the jade bottle, opened it and found several healing elixirs inside.
After briefly discerning their effects, he consumed the elixirs without hesitation. Sitting cross-legged on the ground, he circulated his True Qi, to heal his injuries, without caring about the presence of others around him.
Observing Pei Xuanjing healing his wounds, the few onlookers just watched silently, not interfering, neither finding his behavior out of place.
Bai Xiaosheng and Qingxu Taoist, as allies of Pei Xuanjing, would naturally not fault him. Instead, they deliberately kept an eye on the others present to prevent any desperate acts Yu Zhenzi also fell within their surveillance.
At this moment, the power Pei Xuanjing demonstrated could undoubtedly be compared to supreme figures in the martial arts world, making him an irreplaceable ally. Although Yu Zhenzi was astonished, joy overpowered everything else.
He had won this gamble.
The only thought in Yu Zhenzis mind now was this.
He didnt believe that Pei Xuanjing could actually win, defeating the original Lord of Shenxiao Sect single-handedly.
No matter who was the real or the fake among Wei Qianli and Wei Wanli brothers, both were dead now, and Pei Xuanjing was undoubtedly the victor.
This meant that Pei Xuanjings original plan had accomplished the most critical step. What followed was his own assistance in subduing the others to rebuild the Shenxiao Sect.
At this moment, in Yu Zhenzis eyes, Pei Xuanjing was no longer the villain who coerced him into an alliance, but a tree providing strong shelter.
Considering the power that Pei Xuanjing demonstrated just now, following the rebuilding of Shenxiao Sect, they could undoubtedly become a top force under the sky.
And he, Yu Zhenzi, would no longer need to live in darkness but walk in the world of martial arts openly, fearing no one.
With this thought, Yu Zhenzi shifted his gaze to the four men nearby, their faces filled with uncertainty and embarrassment, and considered his next move.
The four First-grade experts who had come along with Wei Wanli were also people who had received Shenxiao Sects scattered legacy.
They were able to cultivate up to the First-grade realm, step by step, taking advantage of the opportunities brought on by that inheritance, proving their talent.
But in the face of Great Mings imperial courts intimidation, even First-grade martial artists would find it hard to resist. Only by acquiring the protection of the Lord of Shenxian Gate could they survive.
They were summoned by the Lord of Shenxian Gate this time to ambush and kill Pei Xuanjing. Initially, they thought it would be an easy task, but surprisingly the plot twisted too much, and even the Lord of Shenxian Gate, their protector, died here.
Due to the hint from Pei Xuanjing, Taoist Qingxu held back when taking action. Although he only defeated the four men, he did not take their lives.
At the moment, with embarrassed faces, the four men exchanged glances. They had no means to flee, and all they could do was to wait for the other partys judgment, helpless as fish on a cutting board.
Just then, they suddenly heard Yu Zhenzi, who had betrayed them just earlier, speak.
Gentlemen, the fraud who has been posing as the Master of Shenxiao Sect has been killed. You all now know that Brother Pei is the legitimate heir of the Shenxiao Sect. Why not abandon the darkness, surrender to Brother Pei, and contribute to the rebuilding of Shenxiao Sect? Yu Zhenzi said to the four men.
With those words, he gave the deceased Wei Qianli and Wei Wanli brothers their final word.
They were not the Master of Shenxiao Gate; they were just frauds who coincidentally obtained the inheritance and used it to deceive others.
The legitimate heir of Shenxiao was not them, but Pei Xuanjing.
These words not only settled the final judgment for Wei Qianli brothers but also affirmed Pei Xuanjings name.
After hearing Yu Zhenzis words, the four men hesitated, finding it hard to make a decision on the spot.
Yu Zhenzi added fuel to the fire: You were just deceived by those two. Now there are two elders as witnesses, nobody will consider you as traitors.
He pointed at Bai Xiaosheng and Taoist Qingxu, giving the four of them a reason. They were simply innocent people who had been deceived by the impostor brothers.
In the future, even if the news spread, with the witness of Taoist Qingxu and Bai Xiaosheng, and Yu Zhenzis testimony, the case would be ironclad.
Taoist Qingxu and Bai Xiaosheng did not comment on Yu Zhenzis words. Their silence now seemed a bit like defaulting.
The four men were somewhat tempted, but still uncertain, they hesitated.
Right then, Pei Xuanjing finished his healing. He opened his eyes, and said calmly, What Yu Zhenzi just said reflects my thoughts exactly. I hope the four of you will consider carefully..
