Chapter 2255: Sword Courtyard’s legacy should not be this weak.
The sword edge surged like waves, relentless and unceasing.
Black as ink, white as snow, in clear contrast, yet mingled with shades of gray.
A streak of sword light, mixed with two different concepts, made those who saw it feel like vomiting blood from discomfort.
To the two Divine Realm Experts of the Sword Path, however, Han Muye’s sword made their blood boil with excitement.
“Excellent swordsmanship!”
“A sword that dictates life and death, truly domineering!”
The two Divine Venerates exclaimed in unison, their sword light meeting Han Muye’s sword light head-on.
The simultaneous counterattack from the two Sword Path Divine Venerables showed how much they regarded Han Muye.
Sword cultivators of the world are the proudest of beings, to say nothing of those who have ascended to the God Realm with their swords. Now, they were pressing their sword edges against a singular sword light, a scene that left the four Illusory Mystics Clan Divine Venerates and another from the Sky-Treading Clan gaping in amazement.
Could there really be such powerful individuals in the world?
“Hum—”
The three sword lights tangled together.
Han Muye’s sword light, differentiated into black and white, with the black sword cutting through one person’s sword light and the white sword another’s. Following the clash of the two swords, he strode leisurely, with each step cutting through the void.
In front of him, the black and white sword lights pressed down the two Divine Realm Experts of the Sword Path, churning continuously.
At that moment, Han Muye seemed to be back on Nine Mystic Mountain, all his comprehension ignited, every sword move of the adversaries seen through.
“To block my sword with a galaxy spin is too slow, you should use the most direct thrust.”
“You can’t even break through the successive Phoenix Tail strikes, your foundation in swordsmanship is too weak.”
“In such a situation you still want to break the momentum? Overestimating your capabilities, see how you block the surging waves.”
“Sword Courtyard had some skills back in the day, but your sword doesn’t even measure up to a third of the standard, too poor.”
With each step and word, the two Divine Realm Experts of the Sword Path looked like sword-bearing children being pushed back at every turn.
It wasn’t that their cultivation abilities or realms were insufficient.
It was that their opponent, Han Muye, possessed a sword path so pure and formidable it was beyond imagination.
The casualness of his sword, the Sword Principle and Sword Intent, as well as the great Dao infused within, were all of the Transformation Realm.
Facing Han Muye was like facing the endless Sword Path of the world.
Every casual strike of his was one they dared not underestimate.
Conversely, the sword paths they had painstakingly cultivated for countless years, the sword moves they had practiced for eons, all had flaws in the face of Han Muye.
Han Muye could not only spot the flaws but was also able to evolve their sword paths anew, erasing the flaws, rendering them defenseless.
At this moment, they were like neophytes learning to use the sword all over again, at a loss with each sword coming their way, not knowing how to respond.
The sword light before them seemed to reveal boundless grandeur.
That was not just a sword, that was the pinnacle of the Sword Way!
“Clang—”
The three-foot-long sword sang, its black and white sword light knocking away two others.
The two Divine Venerates of the Sword Path staggered backward, their blood essence swirling, retreating thousands of miles before they could stabilize.
As they looked up at Han Muye with calm faces, a hint of regret flashed in their eyes.
“The Sword Pavilion’s legacy should not be this weak…”
Weak.
The two Divine Realm Experts of the Sword Path were outright called weak to their faces.
This declaration would have likely been met with laughter elsewhere.
But at this moment, except for the Heaven-Stepping Clan expert suppressed by lightning, everyone else watched the scene with grave expressions.
“Snap.”
Han Muye raised his hand, grasping the two three-foot-long swords in his hands.
“Fellow Daoist Mu Ye, our Sword Courtyard has countless sword arts experts, as well as the Eternal Sword Platform. If you seek a worthy opponent in the Way of the Sword, you are welcome to visit our Sword Courtyard someday.”
A few married women passing by the Di Family’s courtyard looked at her from a distance and whispered to each other.
“Do you think the Di family’s new bride is not right? Her gaze is so straight, and she looks so foolish. Could it be because a high fever turned her into an idiot?”
“Don’t you know, this new wife of Di Yelei isn’t like any ordinary person. I heard that she had something going on with Businessman Zhang from the city… Anyway, she failed to escape marriage and jumped into the river on her wedding night. She ended up like this because of the cold she caught while having a high fever.”
“If you ask me, what’s the use of keeping such a shameless daughter-in-law? Better just tie her up and sell her to the brothel to save on medical expenses.”
“Di Yelei is pretty good actually. If it weren’t for his two children, he wouldn’t have married this disaster of a woman back home…”
The chirping in her ears made Liu Sisi gently close her eyes.
She had heard similar gossip over the past few days, but she simply did not pay attention to them!
Others thought she had caught a cold from escaping marriage and falling into the water, staying sick for several days. However, only she knew that she had changed her core by now, and she was no longer the same person.
The original her was just an orphan whose parents had died, grew up with her grandpa in their rural hometown. When she got her first month’s salary after graduating from college, she bought a bottle of red wine to celebrate, but after getting drunk, she woke up as this Liu Sisi, who had attempted to escape her wedding and drowned in an accident.
The gossip from a few married women suddenly woke up her idle thoughts, and she realized that she had forgotten about the big problem waiting for her!
A hurried footsteps were heard, and soon, a big man appeared before her eyes.
Di Yelei had just come back from the old house, and with a belly full of idle anger, he felt suffocated and irritable when he thought about his sickly wife lying in bed.
His biological mother passed away as soon as he was born, and tragedy struck his betrothed wife before their marriage. Years later, he finally found a new wife. Just when their lives were starting to improve, she had a fall and died, leaving him with two children and a mountain of debt.
Initially, Aunt Zhang had persuaded him, thinking about his young children, and hearing the matchmaker talking up the bride’s beauty and abilities. He gritted his teeth and agreed to the marriage, but in the end, it turned out like this.
Han Muye, with his hands behind his back, had an unconcerned look on his face as he walked forward.
“Spatial power is indeed profound, worth all the effort I spent comprehending it.”
With a single movement, his figure was already thirty feet in front of the four Illusory Mystics Clan Divine Realm experts.
“Start talking, what is this Heaven-Slaying Alliance all about.”
