Qun Xuan coldly threatened, "Xiao Liulang, don’t get too proud. The number of times you stabbed me today, I will return tenfold!"
Jun Xiuhuan said expressionlessly, "This is your matter, I’m leaving."
Qun Xuan scoffed, "You’re out of luck, today’s events can’t be known to anyone."
The implication was that he intended to kill Jun Xiuhuan to silence him.
It was easy to guess the identity of Jun Xiuhuan, among the six, he was the one with the most unfamiliar face, it was obvious that he was the student from the humble background at Jianan Academy.
Qun Xuan had never bothered to take such small fry into account.
Gu Changqing rode his horse in front of Gu Jiao, blocking Qun Xuan’s line of sight, and said to Gu Jiao, "You go first, I’ll settle things with him."
Without hesitation, Gu Jiao and the Black Wind King broke out of the siege.
Qun Xuan disdainfully said, "Trying to run? Chase them down!"
Two black-clad men leapt up and swung their swords towards Gu Jiao from behind.
Gu Changqing turned around and slashed a chilling sword energy, cutting both men down from mid-air!
...
Elsewhere, the confrontation between Taoist Priest Qingchen and Han Wuye had reached a climax.
Han Wuye was gradually feeling the pressure. Although he was not at a disadvantage yet, his internal energy was quickly depleting.
Although he was reluctant to admit it, Taoist Priest Qingchen’s martial arts were indeed superior to his. When Taoist Priest Qingchen used only fifty percent of his strength in a move, Han Wuye had to exert seventy percent to match him.
As a result, he naturally consumed his energy faster.
After exchanging another punch, they both retreated.
Han Wuye’s soft silver hair had already puffed up like a brush, and he said, gasping for breath, "You’re supposed to be a monk. Can’t you fight me fair and square instead of resorting to despicable means like stealing my secret letters?"
Taoist Priest Qingchen awkwardly said, "Steal your secret letters? Not me."
Han Wuye coldly said, "Still denying it? Someone saw you!"
Taoist Priest Qingchen naively paused, "Mu Qingchen? Besides him, I haven’t seen anyone before you."
Han Wuye was taken aback.
If it were anyone else, he would have thought they were making excuses, but Taoist Priest Qingchen—
He frowned, "You didn’t go to Huangshu Slope just now?"
"No," said Taoist Priest Qingchen.
