Shen Guyun's chilling words fell, and the Heavenly Gate Acupoint between his eyebrows shone brightly, as immense True Yuan also surged forth. The golden Sword Qi he wielded suddenly increased dramatically in power, instantly suppressing Hou Yujie.
Not just that, he saw the crimson Sword Qi gradually retracting, and seizing the opportunity, he continued to press forward on the attack. His longsword raced forward, the sharp golden Sword Qi instantly enveloping Hou Yujie's body, constantly compressing his space to dodge. Clearly, his intent to kill was significant.
However, faced with such a perilous situation, all that responded to him was Hou Yujie's disdainful cold laugh. His laugh, coupled with his slightly sharp and deep voice, created a sinister feel in the night sky. Not just Shen Guyun, but everyone present felt a chill down their spines.
After the laughter ceased, the place wrapped in the vast golden light suddenly saw thousands of crimson light spots emerge. The furious Shen Guyun made his move swiftly, but the sword lights were too numerous, and he noticed it, his brows slightly furrowing as an ominous feeling arose in his heart, quickly retreating to escape.
Unfortunately, he was a step slow...
The thousands of crimson light spots suddenly burst through his golden Sword Qi, directly charging above his head, and then, these light spots, like meteors, suddenly plummeted from the sky. Not only did they obliterate his golden Sword Qi, but they also almost enveloped his entire body within a few dozen meters.
At the moment the crimson light spots fell, Shen Guyun finally saw clearly, these weren't just light spots, but indeed the Sword Qi unleashed by Hou Yujie, their speed and abundance giving them the appearance of light points.
After he caught on, his pupils immediately flooded with endless terror.
This densely packed Sword Qi, like raindrops surrounding his body, left him absolutely no room to evade, and the immense power contained within the Sword Qi also made him realize that Hou Yujie's attack was far more formidable than before.
In haste, he could only channel his Cultivation around his body, forcibly positioning his golden longsword above his head, covering his vulnerable parts to try enduring this attack.
Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh...
When the thousands of crimson sword lights landed on the ground, they produced a sound intense like dense raindrops, but behind each sound followed a slender, unknowably deep pit. In an instant, the ground around the place where Shen Guyun stood looked as though it had been corroded by a severe acid rain, with countless pits formed.
And because these pits were too densely packed, they quickly connected together, making the ground from afar seem to have sunk dozens of meters deep, with only he himself, still using his True Yuan to defend, standing in the same place, enduring for just over ten breaths. However, as the defending True Yuan shattered, his entire body was instantly engulfed by the crimson Sword Qi and smashed into the ground, his life and death unknown.
Yue Wenzhu and Gao Haicheng, watching Shen Guyun go from appearing to an unknown fate, took less than a hundred breaths in total, their expressions completely numb. Both, as if possessed, glanced at Hou Yujie, and suddenly exchanged looks, shuddering together.
"Fourth Elder also has the strength of a Heaven-Level Great Grandmaster..."
Hou Yujie turned his head, casting his gaze towards Fengbo Hall. After glancing at Ke Jiangyun, who had a face of utter despair, he sneered lightly, then sternly said to the people behind him:
"All units from the Upper Hou Gate, listen to the order: leave none from the Fengbo Hall lineage unscathed!"
"Your subordinates comply."
Five hundred Martial Artists from the Upper Hou Gate responded in unison, wielding their weapons, directly charging into the Fengbo Hall encampment, initiating a bloody massacre.
Hou Yujie did not rush to deal with Ke Jiangyun but instead leisurely rode his horse to the side of the lifeless Shen Guyun, lifting him with his sword and placing him on his own horse.
"If elder brother hadn't wanted you alive, you wouldn't even have had the chance to draw your sword!"
