Chapter 444 It’s our turn to be the cat
With the support of those fifty freshmen, Lu Zhuo finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He took the time to look down and saw that his gorgeous flowing robe had several burn marks and tears, becoming tattered.
Lu Zhuo's face fell, and he felt very distressed. "This is the new clothes I just bought at Jinxiu Fuyao Pavilion... I've only worn it for less than half a day..."
"I'm still worried about your clothes! Watch my fist!"
Di Gang seized an opportunity, wrapped his fists with ochre-colored spiritual energy, and smashed into Lu Zhuo's face like a meteorite.
This punch was so fast!
Lu Zhuo's pupils suddenly shrank, and he urgently mobilized the nearest sword and shield for protection.
Bang bang bang!
Di Gang broke through three layers of swords and shields with his bare hands.
In the blink of an eye, he was already close to Lu Zhuo.
Swish!
At the critical moment, a sharp and cold sword light, like the dawn, cuts between the two with domineering and tyrannical force!
The sword light was not gorgeous, but it carried an indomitable and determined fighting spirit!
When the sword and fist collided, the air waves rolled, blowing up the strands of hair on Xing Xue's forehead, making them fly backwards, revealing a pair of calm and tough eyes underneath.
Xing Xue held the sword in his left hand and steadily blocked Di Gang's extremely ferocious punch.
Her gaze was like a sharp blade, firmly locked onto the now shocked Di Gang. Her voice was calm but unquestionable: "Your opponent is me."
"Senior Sister Xing Xue!" Lu Zhuo, who had covered his face, exclaimed in surprise, "Have you recovered from your injuries?"
Xing Xue didn't look back, all his attention focused on the imposing Di Gang in front of him. He just responded briefly: "It's okay, I can still fight."
Unable to hit the target, Di Gang quickly retreated, and with a few leaps he came to Tianzhu's side. He raised his arm to block and caught a stinky talisman thrown by Xinsheng.
As the rune lit up, the talisman paper spontaneously combusted, releasing an indescribable strange smell.
Tianzhu immediately controlled the puppet and ran away from Digang without hesitation, "Stinky, stinky! It stinks so bad... Digang! Stay away from me!"
Di Gang: "..."
At this time, the original situation of Lu Zhuo fighting one against two became a fair two against two.
The two sides stood opposite each other.
The crisis was temporarily resolved. Lu Zhuo immediately opened the jade fan and fanned himself, and then quickly performed several cleaning spells to brush off the dust, tidy up his clothes, and smooth his hair.
In the blink of an eye, the disheveled Young Master of the Immortal Sword Sect had returned to his elegant and graceful image as a nobleman, but he kept talking: "Senior Sister Xing Xue, you have to be careful. Senior Brother Di Gang is as strong as a bull and his strength is terrifying!"
Xing Xue: "Okay."
Lu Zhuo continued with a lingering fear: "It's still my senior brother! He doesn't know how to hold back at all! He almost punched my handsome face! If it was all bruised, I would be too embarrassed to face anyone~"
Upon hearing this, Di Gang spat in disdain: "Bah! You're a peacock! Pretty boy! As a grown man, why are you whining so much? You don't have any masculinity at all!"
When Lu Zhuo heard this, he immediately complained to Xing Xue: "Senior Sister Xing Xue, look, he scolded me! Senior Brother Di Gang must be jealous that I am prettier than him~ Especially popular with girls~"
Lu Zhuo muttered the last sentence quietly.
But those who practice Taoism have excellent hearing, so there is no way that those present could not have heard it.
Tianzhu covered his mouth and laughed, but still accidentally let out some laughter.
"..." Di Gang was truly speechless and choked, his fists clenched so tightly that they made crackling sounds.
...This damn conceited peacock pretty boy!
No taste! A muscular man is the ideal dream of a masculine man!
Xing Xue was not good at comforting people. She was silent for two seconds, then she tightened her grip on the sword and said in a firm tone, "Then I'll help you beat him up and make him shut up!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xing Xue rushed out like an arrow, aiming directly for Di Gang's head!
Xing Xue's sword intent is completely different from her cold appearance, she takes a tough and domineering approach!
Every swing and every chop was crisp and clean, without any frills, yet contained astonishing power and speed.
After just a few rounds of confrontation, Di Gang keenly felt that Xing Xue exuded a murderous aura that could only be honed in a sea of corpses and blood!
The murderous aura was so solid that even the temperature around seemed to drop by several degrees.
Di Gang felt a chill in his heart.
This level of murderous intent...is definitely not something that can be cultivated by sparring with others in the academy.
Only those who have truly experienced countless life-and-death battles and killed countless lives can exude the murderous aura invisibly!
He suddenly remembered that Tianzhu had mentioned information about this Junior Sister Xing Xue before—
Born as a casual cultivator, when he was just beginning to learn to wield a sword at a young age, he encountered a tragedy in which the entire village was massacred.
When Xing Xue heard the bad news, he went up the mountain with a sword and fought a desperate battle with 145 vicious bandits for three days and three nights until he chopped off the head of the last bandit. He then built a memorial to the head at the entrance of the village to commemorate the wronged souls.
When he was found, Xing Xue was sitting under an old tree at the entrance of the village, covered in blood, and was dying.
Afterwards, although Xing Xue was rescued by a passing disciple of a cultivation sect, unfortunately, because the treatment was too late, the tendons and veins in his right hand were severely damaged and almost completely disabled.
At that time, Xing Xue had just become an orphan and was penniless, unable to buy precious elixirs to reconnect his meridians.
After that, Xing Xue resolutely embarked on the path of cultivating immortality and began to practice left-handed swordsmanship...
After being admitted to Wenxin Academy, Xing Xue was on missions outside almost all year round, and he specifically chose murder missions that had high rewards but extremely high risks.
For example, clearing out the remaining forces of the evil sects, hunting down notorious thieves...
Her swordsmanship was learned from countless life-and-death situations.
Just to win, just to survive.
Thinking of this, Di Gang finally put away the last bit of his playful mood.
Body cultivator.
When you have made some progress in body training, you can release your internal energy to kill your enemies!
Di Gang pushed the internal energy in his body to the extreme, and tried his best to deal with Xing Xue's fierce sword moves that were like a storm!
While the two were fighting, Tianzhu was so disgusted by the various strange talismans of the freshmen that he vomited and had no time to care about too much.
Lu Zhuo's pressure was greatly reduced. His eyes became serious, and he stopped playing around. He pointed his finger like a sword and shouted, "Go!"
He used his last two hundred flying swords.
The flying sword rang softly, transforming into two streams of sword light, rushing towards another battle circle.
There, the divination duel between Si Chenbi and Xuan Heng has reached a critical moment.
Si Chenbi's forehead was covered with sweat, and the pointer of the Nine-Pole Star Plate in his hand was spinning rapidly.
The space around her was still distorted and compressed by the Bagua formation diagram under Xuan Heng's feet.
The distance between her and Xuan Heng has been shortened to less than ten feet!
The time has come, Xuan Heng finally took the initiative.
The Bagua diagram under his feet shone brightly, and a huge translucent hand formed by runes appeared out of thin air, grabbing Si Chenbi in the formation with a crushing gesture!
Just at this moment, Lu Zhuo's two hundred flying swords arrived in time, like two agile schools of fish, interweaving into a dense sword net, and slammed into the rune hand!
boom!
The sword light and runes exploded at the same time, successfully blocking the attack for Si Chenbi.
The stable Bagua formation also began to fluctuate slightly.
Si Chenbi seized this fleeting opportunity to breathe, biting his fingertip without hesitation, and a drop of blood dripped onto the center of the Nine Extreme Star Disk. He pinched his hands together and made complex seals.
The formation and hexagram have the same origin.
Si Chenbi had learned so many secret techniques of the Si family, so naturally he had also learned how to use the art of formation to crack the hexagram technique.
But this takes time.
Xuan Heng naturally wouldn't just sit there and watch.
He tapped his fingertips repeatedly, and the Bagua formation started to work again, and an even more powerful spatial repressive force began to emerge.
Lu Zhuo's two hundred flying swords did not dare to go too deep into the core influence range of the Bagua formation, for fear that the power of distorting space would disrupt the sword formation. They could only cruise around the periphery to cause interference, and their effects were limited.
Seeing this, Lu Zhuo quickly scanned the entire audience.
Although the battle between Xing Xue and Di Gang was fierce, Xing Xue's moves were sharp and deadly, while Di Gang was constrained. For a moment, Xing Xue had the upper hand and Lu Zhuo did not need to distract himself to control the flying sword for support.
Immediately, Lu Zhuo raised his hand and the four hundred flying swords that were originally besieging Di Gang left the battlefield!
"go!!"
Four hundred flying swords changed direction and transformed into a dazzling torrent of sword light, sweeping towards the direction where Xuan Heng was!
Six hundred flying swords attacked together, impacting the edge of the Bagua formation like a violent storm, trying to buy that crucial moment for Si Chenbi!
Xuan Heng frowned slightly. Facing the torrent of flying swords in front of him, he had to devote part of his mind to controlling the Bagua formation for defense.
"Want to delay? That's a good idea, but have you asked for my opinion?"
Just as Xuan Heng was changing his seal——
Mutations reborn!
In several hidden corners around Zigui Garden, beams of light suddenly lit up at the same time!
The light pillars quickly connected to form a huge transparent bowl-shaped barrier, which fell upside down with a loud bang!
At the moment the formation took shape, the surrounding space seemed to be peeled off from this world. The Bagua formation diagram under Xuanheng's feet, which originally covered the entire field and operated smoothly, suddenly dimmed.
Xuan Heng could clearly feel that the influence range of the Bagua formation was severely compressed, from covering the entire Zigui Garden to an area less than ten feet around him!
He suddenly raised his head and glanced around sharply: "Who?"
The formation was set up, and Rong Shu no longer hid his whereabouts and appeared in front of everyone openly.
Rong Shu, who still had many talismans stuck on her body, looked innocent at this moment. She brushed off the dirt on her hands and spoke loudly:
"Hello, fellow brothers and sisters~"
"I suppose you had a lot of fun playing cat and mouse earlier?"
"It's just that now, offense and defense have changed!"
Her eyes swept over the stunned old students one by one, and in her brilliant and flawless smile, there was a hint of devilish cunning:
"It's our turn to be cats."
