Chapter 68: One Move

"He actually broke the array so easily."

In the shadows, Hei Xuan remarked with some surprise, "This little rascal is quite clever. To see the array’s flaw in such a short period shows some skill."

"Not an Artifact Refiner, yet able to pinpoint the reason for the chief refiner’s failure. I’m very curious about what kind of high master could nurture such an excellent junior."

After Xiao Hanfeng issued the order, Hei Xuan quickly followed secretly.

"Little junior brother! You’re amazing!"

"Sorted them out all at once! Breaking arrays feels great!"

"I never thought little junior brother also understands arrays."

In one breath, Lin Yan and his people were wiped out, and Zuo Qingyang and the three were overjoyed.

Gu Chenfeng smiled slightly, "He said it himself, the Heaven and Earth Spirit Locking Array, since it’s for locking spirits, it concerns Spiritual Power. I guessed it as soon as the Spiritual Power was sealed."

"Thanks to little junior brother, otherwise we would be in trouble," Liu Qingqing sweetly smiled, giving a thumbs-up to Gu Chenfeng.

"Let’s go, leave the Imperial City as fast as possible," Zuo Qingyang urged, and the group rushed out of the Imperial City.

Lin Yan and over a dozen Fasting Stage were severely wounded; especially the Fasting Stage experts, covered in blood, were too weak to climb up.

If they rushed a bit faster, they might lose their lives.

Zuo Qingyang and the three are all in the Golden Core Stage, their entire power instantly exploded. It’s a blessing they survived.

"You can’t escape," Lin Yan snarled fiercely, crawling up enduring heavy injuries to pursue.

Zuo Qingyang looked back at Lin Yan with a thought, "Ouyang Chu wants to kill me; he wouldn’t miss this chance. He wouldn’t believe Lin Yan can deal with me."

"Ouyang Chu just gave us a glimpse of hope. If my guess is correct, he should be outside the Imperial City right now!"

Ten minutes later.

Zuo Qingyang and the four arrived at the Imperial City Bell Tower’s entrance.

"Ouyang Chu’s aura." As soon as they reached the bell tower, Gu Chenfeng sensed Ouyang Chu’s aura and smirked coldly, "He indeed won’t let it rest, just waiting for us to show up."

As Zuo Qingyang and the group rushed out of the tower’s entrance, a silhouette suddenly appeared outside.

It was Ouyang Chu.

In midair, six Golden Core Stage experts arrived via sword control.

Altogether seven Golden Core Stage, it was clear Ouyang Chu must kill Zuo Qingyang and company.

Watching Zuo Qingyang and company rush out, Ouyang Chu sneered coldly, "Zuo Qingyang, do you think you can smoothly escape the Imperial City?"

Zuo Qingyang didn’t think much, immediately replied, "Second junior brother, head directly east, junior sister, take little junior brother west; with little junior brother’s speed, he should escape smoothly!"

As soon as he finished speaking.

Zuo Qingyang summoned the Spirit Sword, fully mobilized his Spiritual Power, his body glowed faintly golden, and his powerful aura rapidly surged, then he unhesitatingly charged at Ouyang Chu.

Zuo Qingyang thought, "Ouyang Chu’s strength far surpasses mine. I must go all out and defeat him as quickly as possible."

At the top of the bell tower, Hei Xuan’s ghostly silhouette slowly emerged.

Watching Zuo Qingyang, Hei Xuan thought, "This kid is indeed emotional and loyal, risking himself for his fellow disciples."

"Senior brother, be careful!" Bai Tu cautioned, then sword-controlled directly east.

"Little junior brother, run quickly!" Liu Qingqing pulled Gu Chenfeng and flew west by sword control.

"Zuo Qingyang, do you think by stalling me, they can escape? You’re courting death," Ouyang Chu sneered coldly, then summoned a Spirit Sword, blasting out Spiritual Power.

As Ouyang Chu attacked, the six Golden Core experts in midair split into two groups to chase, their speed astounding.

Zuo Qingyang summoned the Wind Attribute Spiritual Treasure Bead, formed a Sword Point with his left hand, and shouted, "Profound Technique! Wind Spirit Technique!"

With the shout, a Wind Attribute Spiritual Power condensed above Zuo Qingyang’s Sword Point, then injected into the Spiritual Treasure Bead, and an extremely powerful Wind Attribute Power erupted.

"Swish!"

Zuo Qingyang’s figure, blasted out, suddenly transformed into a golden light, flashing past like a bolt of lightning; wherever it passed, powerful forces shattered the ground, stirring up a sky full of dust.

"So fast!" Hei Xuan remarked surprised, "This kid can indeed condense wind attributes, using Wind Attribute Spiritual Artifact to boost Wind Attribute Power, increasing speed and strength, quite impressive."

As he spoke, Hei Xuan formed a Sword Point, and two phantom shadows appeared, then disappeared.

At this moment.

Zuo Qingyang’s power and speed suddenly surged by nearly twice.

"Wind Attribute? So fast! His speed increased!" Ouyang Chu’s face dramatically changed.

While Ouyang Chu was shocked.

Golden lightning instantly arrived, Zuo Qingyang coldly shouted, "Spiritual Technique! Shadow of the Illusionary Sword!"

"Swish swish swish!"

"Slash slash slash!"

As the cold shout fell, before Ouyang Chu could react, Zuo Qingyang transformed into countless afterimages, launching a frenzied attack from all directions, with golden sword light flickering continuously.

Dozens of golden flashes descended, with blood spurting from Ouyang Chu’s body.

"What a sharp Sword Technique!" Hei Xuan praised inwardly, "This kid’s proficiency in Sword Dao is not low, a Sword Dao genius."

"Just one move... this... how can this be..." Ouyang Chu was full of disbelief, then weakly fell.

Ouyang Chu never expected that in front of Zuo Qingyang, he wouldn’t even have a chance to strike.

Zuo Qingyang’s strength was indeed inferior to Ouyang Chu, but the sudden explosive speed took Ouyang Chu by surprise.

"Thanks to the Wind Attribute Spiritual Artifact!" Zuo Qingyang rejoiced inwardly, glanced at the fallen Ouyang Chu, and immediately chased after Gu Chenfeng by sword control.

"Winning unexpectedly, Ouyang Chu was still too careless," Hei Xuan smiled slightly as his figure also vanished.

Meanwhile.

"Swish swish swish!"

"Boom boom!"

At full speed sword flight, Bai Tu was rapidly pursued by three Golden Core experts, with Energy Swords bombing wildly.

"Brat! You can’t escape! Surrender and die!" one shouted angrily at Bai Tu.

While dodging, Bai Tu cursed angrily, "Bastards! Bullying with numbers, what kind of skill is that!"

"What’s wrong with bullying with numbers?" one Golden Core expert taunted coldly, continuously attacking with his Spirit Sword.

Bai Tu was furious, cursing, "Shameless bastard! I curse your ancestors for eighteen generations! Your whole clan has sons without buttholes!"

"Brat! When I catch you, I’ll tear your mouth apart!" one Golden Core expert snarled, murderous intent soaring.

At this moment.

An icy voice suddenly sounded, "Since you bully with numbers, I shall oppress with strength."

The three Golden Core experts’ expressions simultaneously changed dramatically, one shouted angrily, "Who’s there? We are members of the Imperial City’s Ouyang Family, I advise you not to meddle!"

"Puff puff puff!"

The moment his angry shout fell, a terrifying aura descended from the sky, causing the three to spit blood.

"Late Stage of Nascent Soul!" Their expressions changed dramatically again, their faces full of fear.
