When Li Ruolan made her move, she was already touching Ji Xin's back, and then moved closer to Zhou Jinchun.
But Zhou Jinchun was forced back by the sword, getting farther and farther away from the two of them. He knew he should go in the opposite direction, but the sword was so powerful that he couldn't control himself.
Li Ruolan waved her sword like lightning and raised her voice: "Senior Brother Ji, you go first!"
"Okay!" Ji Xin said loudly.
Li Ruolan's sword light suddenly surged, overwhelming the four people on the opposite side. Ji Xin ignored his opponents and fired fiercely at Zhou Jinchun,
"Ding, ding, ding, ding..." Amidst a series of sounds of swords clashing, he and Zhou Jinchun met, back to back to fight.
Li Ruolan fought one against four and was immediately at a disadvantage.
She swung the sword extremely fast and was able to cope with it for a while without being overwhelmed.
Zhou Jinchun and Ji Xin were fighting one against two, but they were still struggling. The thin middle-aged man was really too powerful, and the light of the sword was so cold that it seemed to freeze people to death. They reluctantly leaned towards Li Ruolan.
Li Ruolan barely held on, and Zhou Jinchun and Ji Xin also struggled to join her.
"Hmph!" The thin middle-aged man sneered, turned around, rushed straight towards Li Ruolan, and together with the other four people, besieged Li Ruolan.
Seeing that the situation was not good, Zhou Jinchun and Ji Xin wanted to support Li Ruolan, but they were entangled by their opponents.
Their opponent was a tall, thin middle-aged man who never looked very powerful. He looked dim under the dazzling light of the short, thin middle-aged sword.
As soon as the thin middle-aged man left at this time, he suddenly showed his power, and the sword light surged to surround the two of them, and for a moment he actually blocked their progress.
"Junior Sister Li!" Ji Xin shouted anxiously.
He saw Li Ruolan quickly falling into a desperate situation but was unable to do anything. The more anxious he became, the more chaotic he became. His swordsmanship was violent but lacked precision and ruthlessness.
The opponent dealt with it more easily. The long knife was as clever and agile as a sword, trapping the two of them tightly and unable to support Li Ruolan.
The short, middle-aged man had excellent swordsmanship. After joining, Li Ruolan had no luck. After three moves, he was stabbed in the right shoulder, and the blood stained the clothes on his shoulder red.
Her right sword suddenly became weak and powerless, and she no longer had the strength to resist.
"Junior Sister Li!" Ji Xin screamed, her liver and gallbladder splitting.
He watched helplessly as the long knife slashed at Li Ruolan's snow-white, slender, swan-like neck, and the next moment the body was separated.
"Ding..." A flash of lightning flashed, and the short, middle-aged and tall sword swung away and flew out of his hand.
"Tsk!" Another bolt of lightning shot into the chest of the thin middle-aged man, and he flew up like a long knife.
"Chichichichichi!" Howls sounded one after another, and the other four people surrounding Li Ruolan flew up and landed more than ten meters away.
"Bang bang bang bang bang!" The five people fell together, holding their chests and rolling.
"Junior Brother Zhao!" Ji Xin cried out.
"Hi!" A whistle sounded again.
"Ding..." The tall, thin middle-aged man who was fighting Zhou Jinchun swung his sword and hit the invisible and material air sword. The sword suddenly swung lightly. Even though he was prepared, he still couldn't stop the surging power coming from the sword.
"Hi!" After a roar, the tall, thin middle-aged man flew out, blood splattered on his chest.
"Junior Brother Zhao?" Ji Xin raised his voice.
Chu Li fell from a tree to the three of them, hugging his fists.
"It's really you, Junior Brother Zhao!" Ji Xin breathed a sigh of relief, clasped her fists and looked at Li Ruolan: "Junior Sister Li, is it okay?"
Li Ruolan shook his head: "It doesn't matter, it's just a flesh wound."
"Let me bandage it for you." Ji Xin said, "You are a daughter, so it's best to avoid getting hurt."
He stepped forward and stretched out his hand to bandage Li Ruolan.
Li Ruolan took a step back: "No need, Senior Brother Ji, it doesn't really matter to me. It's just a minor injury. Just put some medicine on it and it'll be fine."
"...Okay." Ji Xin saw her resolute expression and reluctantly took back her hand.
Zhou Jinchun cupped his fists and laughed: "Junior Brother Zhao? Is that the famous Zhao Dahe, Junior Brother Zhao?"
Seeing such an exquisite and terrifying light sword, he guessed Chu Li's identity.
In the Great Guangming Peak, apart from the Saint, the only one who can practice the Guangming Sword to such a level is the famous Zhao Dahe.
After a few months of stepping into the Great Guangming Peak, he practiced the Guangming Sword to the eighth or even ninth level. Although he was only on the first peak, he was already a legend.
Chu Li clasped his fists: "I'm Zhao Dahe!"
"I am Zhou Jinchun, and Junior Brother Zhao's Bright Sword is indeed well-deserved!"
"I'm a step too late." Chu Li shook his head and sighed. He glanced at Li Ruolan. Li Ruolan was lowering his head to apply medicine on his wounds and ignored him.
"Not too late, not too late." Zhou Jinchun said hurriedly: "It's just right. I didn't expect Quedao Palace to be so bold and dare to approach the Great Guangming Peak. I really don't know how to write death. Now they know how powerful it is!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the people in Que Dao Palace on the ground suddenly turned over and shot out, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Chu Li frowned and looked at the direction in which they disappeared.
Li Ruolan hummed: "There is a secret technique in Que Dao Palace. If you don't hit the center of the knife, you can't kill them!"
"Is there such a secret technique?" Chu Li asked in surprise: "The heart of the sword?"
"They used their bodies as swords and used their sword energy to train their bodies, so they are all lean but extremely powerful." Li Ruolan took back the jade bottle and raised his head: "If you want to kill them completely, either behead them or destroy the swords."
Heart."
Chu Li nodded slowly: "Next time I'll just shoot in the head."
Li Ruolan said: "Why are you here?"
Chu Li said: "The saint is destined to protect me secretly to ensure that nothing goes wrong this time. I originally thought that the saint was unnecessary, but now it seems that the saint is really wise!"
All three of them blushed.
They originally thought that this mission would be a piece of cake, as no one knew about it, and with the three patrols working together, they would be able to escape unscathed even if they encountered an opponent. They never expected that they would run into a master from Que Dao Palace as soon as they got off the mountain.
If it weren't for the back-up arranged by the Holy Lady, they would really have fallen into the hands of Que Dao Palace this time.
It's a pity that he died, but what's even more terrible is that his fellow sects in Luo Qiucheng were implicated, and even the safety of Da Li was endangered. The sin was too great!
Chu Li said: "Since these guys have escaped and your whereabouts have been leaked, you'd better leave quickly and don't get blocked."
"Let's go." Ji Xin said hurriedly: "Junior sister Li, can you hurry up?"
"Okay." Li Ruolan nodded.
Chu Li took a look at Li Ruolan and said, "Senior sister, it's best to adjust your breath for a while. It will take too much. If you encounter another opponent, I'm afraid you won't be able to fight back."
"No need!" Li Ruolan snorted.
Chu Li said: "That's up to you, I'll take the first step."
After saying this, he hugged Zhou Jinchun and Ji Xin and drifted away, disappearing in the blink of an eye.
Ji Xin looked at Li Ruolan doubtfully.
Logically speaking, Li Ruolan and Zhao Dahe are very close, and Li Ruolan is Zhao Dahe's guide. However, it seems that the two of them are enemies, and there is no sense of closeness at all, which is really strange.
He did not know about Li Ruolan's return to the divine capital. Li Ruolan went there quietly and came back silently. Almost no one knew her whereabouts, except that she could not hide it from the saint.
This is obviously an offence. I don’t know what Junior Brother Zhao did wrong to make Junior Sister Li so angry. Junior Sister Li has a gentle temper and does not get angry easily. To make her so angry, Junior Brother Zhao must have offended her.
Cruel.
This made him extremely curious. (To be continued.)
