"Hmmmm yeah, bring it on!" The old man in the middle stared at the blade on Chi Guyan’s hand and nodded his head gently.
Begin a fight with the professionals by comparing each other’s imposing manners.
But Chi Guyan was not used to this habit, and she started to manoeuvre the blade on her hand as long as she saw the man nodding his head.
The blade was out.
The dull and ordinary blade suddenly emitted crystal rays of golden light, looking as if the stars had covered it. It was eye catching yet cold at the same time.
Chi Guyan’s blade was swift and it was different from Nangong Hao’s blade. She had already reached in front of the old man the sword appeared.
Her pink long coat swayed with the wind.
Her crystal clear eyes were stunning.
This stroke was similar to the previous attack that she made on Ah Bu. It had no foul moves, and it was a direct and swift stroke.
But it was because of this stroke that made the old man change his expression. He only started to move after the blade had reached his chest.
Although he was already sweating profusely.
Which made him seem as though he had just experienced a vicious battle.
"Weng!" A loud sound shook the whole earth.
A thick black ray of light began flowing out from the middle of the old man. Or so to say, that was not a ray of black light, it was just complete darkness.
It looked like a black hole swallowing everything around it.
Chi Guyan stopped moving her blade.
The sharp blade halted and shook vigorously in the dark, making a loud sharp noise. The light rays from the stars covering the blade flickered continuously.
Just at that moment, the two old men standing at both sides sprung into action. Both of them charged towards Chi Guyan, one left and the other right.
"Chi Guyan, you might be powerful, but the difference between us will never be meant to cross over!" The old man from the right exclaimed as he attacked and punched her on her left shoulder.
That stroke was not fast at all.
But it was extremely heavy, and its strength did not feel like that just came out purely from his palm. It was as heavy as a gigantic mountain.
The old man from the right certainly knew that the attack would take her down. As a team that fought together for countless years, he was aware that the man in the middle both had their own set of special moves that compliment one another.
The man in the middle would first stand back and defend while Chi Guyan made her first move. Then once the two men on the sides had attacked and cornered Chi Guyan from the sides, the old man from the middle would naturally take on the attacking role.
By then, Chi Guyan would receive the blows from the three of them simultaneously.
That would be an attack with much chemistry between the three of them.
But the attack was unexpectedly right on point.
"Hong!" That punch was strong and solid.
Chi Guyan did not even attempt to dodge that punch, hence the punch landed on her shoulders.
That resulted in the old man standing on the right to feel really confused.
"Could it be that we have overestimated this young lady?" The old man from the left did not reduce his strength of his punch, and he was using his normal strength to strike her.
In theory, Chi Guyan’s arm should not be able to handle that stroke, hence forcing her to loosen the grip of her blade. Yet, the blade on Chi Guyan’s hand did not even move and fall on the floor.
On the other hand...
It moved an inch forward and closer.
The blade that was originally half an inch in front of his chest now moved an inch closer to him. What would then happen?
"Boom!" The sharp end of the blade stabbed straight into the chest of the old man in the middle.
All of this happened in just an instant.
Since the start when Chi Guyan made her first move, to when the old man in the middle defended it. To when the old man on the right struck her arm and finally to when the blade was going into his chest.
Too fast.
It was too rapid to allow any reaction.
The old man in the middle froze at that moment, and so did the two men at the sides. All of them had unbelievable expressions on their faces.
"You..." The old man from the right opened his eyes widely as he witnessed the blade poking into the old man’s chest.
He did not expect that Chi Guyan would actually made use of the strength from his punch, to break through the darkness defence of the old man in the middle.
How was that even possible?
Could it be that she had already anticipated the attack on her shoulder?
That’s why she did not dodge it?
Impossible!
How could that possibly happen.
The old man on the right could not believe this.
So did the old man on the left, who was now approaching them.
"What an impressive young lady!" The old man from the left cried out, but his pace did not slow down at all.
"Hong!"
This punch was as firm as the previous one.
Chi Guyan still did not attempt to dodge again. However this time round she did not stabilise herself, and she used the strength to fly towards the old man on the right.
"Wam!"
The moment Chi Guyan flew out, a brilliant ray of light surrounded her body and the strangest sight happened.
The man on the right froze just when the light brightened up.
It all happened in an instant. Nobody would have noticed anything.
But the blade was already inside his chest. It was normal looking in nature, but it had already stabbed his chest.
Columns of fresh blood.
Red blood bursted out uncontrollably, creating a red rose in the night sky.
"Chi Guyan..." The man on the right stared at the blade sticking out his chest before looking at Chi Guyan.
Astounded.
Never before.
Of course he knew what was happening.
But all those were not important anymore. The crucial thing now was that despite the synergy of the three men, two of them were still injured by her in just a blink of an eye.
They had been attacked by a junior who was of a lower status than them?
Unbelievable.
But that was the reality.
At this moment, he seemed to figure out what Chi Guyan had meant by asking them to come to attack her together.
She was trying to borrow strength!
Moreover, it was their strength that she was trying to borrow.
But who in the world would use this sort of crazy method to fight? It was a total tragedy, as she was using her life to to end another’s.
"Chi Guyan, are you asking for death?" The man on the left did not suffer from any injuries, but he couldn’t help but tremble at the sight of both men getting hurt.
Their main goal was to take down Chi Guyan.
And make her retreat, but they had no intention of killing Chi Guyan. After all, they knew about how important Chi Guyan was to the Heavenly Dao Pavilion Leader.
But, it was obvious that Chi Guyan had been fighting for her life now.
If the old men had not suppressed their power due to the difference in status, they would have been relentless in battle already. When the other party was exchanging her life for another, how could one be showing mercy?
"Pu!" Chi Guyan spitted out a pool of blood from her mouth.
The rosy and alluring face of Chi Guyan turned pale at once, as she had just concurrently suffered two blows from the two strong fighters who was already in the Sage State.
She might have hurt two of them, but she wasn’t in a very good condition either, given her injuries.
But Chi Guyan’s expression remained calm, but the blood stain was still outside her mouth. Her face was pale but her eyes were still as bright and brilliant as ever.
"I beg you to give me one bundle of the Thousand Years Fire Herb, master!" Chi Guyan took a step back, but her expression looking as still as the frozen snow on the lake.
"Stop dreaming, Chi Guyan! Do you think that we can’t do anything to you?"
"Even if you’re a part of the Heavenly Dao Pavilion, we have the right to kill you, judging by your actions today!"
"Chi Guyan, if you back down now, we will not look into this matter. But if you want to continue underestimating us, please don’t blame us for being rude to the Heavenly Dao Pavilion!"
The three of them glared at Chi Guyan, looking cold and scary. As the strongest people in the Sage Sate, they should not be angry at a junior this quickly.
But it was also impossible for them to hand over the precious Thousand Years Fire Herb from the Black Moon Island.
"If that’s the case, then don’t blame me for being like that!" Chi Guyan’s expression remained the same. She raised the long spear up again and pointed directly at the old man in the middle.
"Chi Guyan, you’re asking for death!" The three of them made eye contacts with each other as they said coldly together.
"Death?" Chi Guyan lifted up her head and gazed at the stars over the horizon.
She had been the precious daughter who was under everyone’s care since young. And she looked even more amazing and elegant after being the Pride of the Heavens of the Great Xia Dynasty.
Never encountered any adversity.
Her life was always smooth and successful.
Everything would be given to her once she requested for something. As long as she thought of doing something, countless people would pave the way for her.
In fact, countless people had appeared in front of her and even volunteered to guide her.
Till...
She met a person in her life, who was shameless and not afraid of death.
But it was that person who did something that she would never do, which was single-handedly fighting the half sage Can Yang of the Demon Race.
Then obstructed the invasion of the Northern Barbarians in the Flame Capital City.
"If you can kill the Demon King, then I will definitely be able to get the Thousand Years Fire Herb!" Chi Guyan glared angrily as her eyes suddenly sparkled.
At the same time, a star started shimmering in the horizon.
That star was bright, and it was becoming bigger, bigger...
Or so to say, it was not growing bigger, it was just falling down from the sky.
It was falling down rapidly from the horizon, and Chi Guyan leaped at it at the same time, towards the fallen star.
"This is? Brother......Be careful!"
"Hong!"
A loud sound came out from the Black Moon Island, shaking the whole horizon. The entire Black Moon Island seemed to tremble, with smashing winds and roaring waves.
It was a rather terrifying scene.
Nobody managed to understand the whole situation, but the area where the three men and Chi Guyan were initially standing at, had became a pile of debris.
A huge black pit appeared in the middle and its bottom could not be seen.
The black stone house toppled.
More importantly, the volcanic mountain behind the black stoned house began reacting abnormally, emitting puffs of hot boiling air from the mouth of the volcano.
"Chi Guyan!" A voice bellowed out in the midst of the dusty atmosphere.
The difference between the voice earlier was that, it sounded more agitated this time round, and it was of an uncontrollable agitation.
A figure began emerging out from the dusty area at the same time.
That was a pink shadow, with beautiful features and bright eyes. Her mouth still had blood stains on it, as she continued biting her lips tightly.
"Pew!"
The figure moved in high speed.
It charged towards the volcano after coming out from the dusty area.
"Chi Guyan, you’re not getting away from this!"
"The thousand Years Fire Herd is not only a precious item in the Black Moon Island, it can also be referred to as one of the Five Treasures of the Nine Pinnacle Mountain. The Nine Pinnacle Mountain will forever be against you if you were to take it!"
"Stop right there!"
The three anxious sounds echoed behind her, as they charged out from the dust almost immediately.
Just that, as compared to earlier.
The three of them were looking slightly pathetic.
The black robes that were originally clean and tidy had now been damaged, and there were countless deep and terrible wounds on their bodies.
"Hong hong hong!" The huge volcano began shaking vigorously as the beasts on the island were startled by it, emitting howls of panic.
But Chi Guyan did not want to stop, and she tightened the grip on the sword, as she fixed her eyes on the volcano that might erupt any moment. She was looking calm and determined.
Closer, closer.....
Chi Guyan’s eyes shimmered as she looked at the volcano mountain in front of her.
The three men followed tightly behind her, feeling stressed and anxious, for they certainly knew that there was where the Thousand Years Fire Herbs were stored at.
They were also certain that once Chi Guyan entered the mountain, they were unable to protect the Thousand Years Fire Herb already.
"Brother!"
"My younger brothers, support me!"
"Okay!"
The three men made eye contact with each other, as the middle one clenched his teeth and leaped forward. At the same time, darkness seemed to have engulfed the whole sky.
Just as when darkness was engulfing the sky, the two men from both sides flew rapidly towards the middle man and gave him a punch each.
"Hong!"
Both palms landed directly on the soles of his feet.
The old man blended into a ray of light momentarily, which brightened up the night sky. There were no sounds and no signs of him, it was like he had disappeared.
"WAM!" A loud crashing sound echoed.
The birds and animals were making high pitched sounds in startle, and a blood fog burst out in the air. Then the pink figure dropped in the air.
It fell towards and down into the entrance of the volcano, which was about to erupt.
