Cultivating with Top Enlightenment Chapter 1253 - 556: Master Against Four
Previously on Cultivating with Top Enlightenment...
Medicine Spirit focused his attention forward.
Li Xiangrou was already confronting the two people in front of her.
"Princess, just surrender peacefully to avoid the pain."
"Why struggle?"
The person before her looked at her coldly with a smile.
The other person beside him also walked over slowly.
He didn’t say anything, just looked at her mockingly.
Neither of them seemed to take her seriously.
"Well then, let’s see if you have the ability."
Li Xiangrou held the Profound Sword and looked at the two with cold eyes.
Their strength was formidable, even clearly overwhelming her.
However, for the sake of the guards behind her, she had no choice but to fight them.
"Princess, be careful."
Commander Li reminded from behind.
Meanwhile, the other guards rushed forward.
"Stop!"
However, they were once again shouted down by Li Xiangrou.
The clanging sound of armor echoed from behind, and then everyone halted.
The Princess’s orders were impossible to defy.
If it were an ordinary day, they might have had a different reason.
But this was the battlefield; disobeying commands was a grave mistake.
"Pretty loyal,"
One of them chuckled at the scene and said with amusement, "Too bad it won’t help."
"Exactly, prepare to die!"
The other person remarked.
"Huff!"
The next moment, they both attacked together.
Both charged towards Li Xiangrou.
Neither showed any intention of holding back, both attacking with full force.
Li Xiangrou saw them approaching simultaneously and didn’t dare to be careless.
She swung the Profound Sword, suddenly retaliating.
With her immortal power, the sword emitted a fierce Sword Qi.
It cut through the void, suddenly striking forth towards the two.
"Such powerful Sword Qi!"
One of them exclaimed in surprise and quickly lifted his Heavy Blade to block her attack.
"Huff!"
At this critical moment.
Ning Qi made his move.
With just a wave of his hand, a streak of light formed.
Then it shot towards the Sword Qi of Li Xiangrou.
In a split second, it augmented her Sword Qi.
No one present could detect this.
"Clang!"
The intensified Sword Qi collided with the Heavy Blade.
"Humph, a trivial skill!"
The man scoffed and laughed, "Prepare to die."
"Puff!"
However, his prized Heavy Blade suddenly broke.
He was swiftly bisected by the Sword Qi.
A torrent of blood flowed.
The scent of blood rapidly filled the air.
The man looked in shock at his lower body, already falling towards the ground below.
"Second Brother!"
His comrade exclaimed as he was slain.
"My Divine Soul has been invaded..."
That man intended to let his Divine Soul escape his body, seeking an opportunity to flee.
But to his shock, his Divine Soul became trapped within his body.
He watched as it was about to be annihilated.
"I’ll kill you!"
The other person saw his brother’s imminent destruction.
He erupted with rage.
He charged with all his might.
The long sword in his hand unleashed a fierce Sword Qi.
It slashed directly at Li Xiangrou.
That strike cut a sword mark into the void itself.
Li Xiangrou still didn’t understand what had just happened.
She knew her attack could not have possibly taken down that person with one strike.
But upon regaining her senses, she saw the man charging forward.
"Swish!"
She was fearless, swinging her sword to counterattack again.
"Buzz!"
Suddenly, a visibly solid light barrier formed before her.
Once it appeared, she was securely shielded within it.
This was only the beginning, once the light barrier emerged, the attack from the man in front seemed abruptly severed.
It halted before it fully descended.
"Ah!"
The man roared, pouring all his strength to kill Li Xiangrou.
Yet no matter what he did, he progressed no further.
"Puff!"
In the next instant, Li Xiangrou struck again.
She split the man in two.
In the same miserable plight, he died not knowing how he met his end.
"Princess!"
"Powerful!"
"..."
The guards behind began shouting.
They were well aware of the two men’s strength, which was beyond their capacity to resist.
Yet when Li Xiangrou attacked only twice, she took down those in front.
This greatly uplifted their spirits.
Their hope rekindled, once lost, was regained.
"Princess, you actually found the assistance of a True Immortal master!"
Before their joy lasted, someone emerged from the dark forest.
"Zhao Tianling."
Li Xiangrou instantly recognized the person.
She fixed her gaze upon him.
Clearly, they knew each other.
"The Princess indeed never forgot an old man like me,"
Zhao Tianling chuckled, glancing behind her: "Come out, stop hiding."
Li Xiangrou heard his words and suddenly understood.
She realized what had occurred.
It wasn’t her strength that prevailed; Ning Qi had been assisting her!
She felt relieved.
She glanced back and saw Ning Qi emerging from the carriage.
His face carried a smile.
It was a harmless appearance.
He cast a taunting look at Zhao Tianling.
"Indeed a master, True Immortal peak strength."
Zhao Tianling observed and identified Ning Qi’s power level.
