Shi Feixuan, the successor of Kind Boathouse’s Sword Classic.
When Happy heard that name, he sensed a soft part in his heart being hit. He held his breath, and he could not help but stare at the woman on the lake. However, he forgot that his gaze might cause her to become wary.
And that was indeed what happened.
As if she had sensed his eyes from the distance, Shi Feixuan looked toward Happy. Her gaze was as bright as a sword will and as cold as a sharp blade. It caused Happy to instantly recover the clarity of his mind. His Nine Yang Divine Skill automatically protected his body, and it shattered the sword will that had nearly injured him.
‘As expected of the successor of Kind Boathouse. Shi Feixuan… we meet again.’
When Happy shattered the Clear Sword from Shi Feixuan, he sank into a calm state. He remained indifferent, neither shocked nor angry, and just sighed with great emotion.
“Hmph! Fan Huixin, you’re only sending a disciple to meet me?”
An awe-inspiring cold snort shattered the silence of the night, and it also destroyed Happy’s calm state of mind. An incredibly cold feeling descended from the sky, and faint ripples rose on the surface of the lake.
There was a thin veil over Shi Feixuan’s face. It gave her an indescribably mysterious feeling, since her face was obscured. She watched Zhu Yuyan while she walked out of the camp, and her clear as well as pleasant voice traveled out slowly from beneath the thin veil.
“Senior Zhu, my mistress asked me to deliver you a message. Right now, the world is in chaos. The people are suffering, and if the evil cult does not repent but insists on bringing chaos to the world of martial artists while going against the laws of nature, we, Kind Boathouse, will appear once again, even though we have ignored the matters of the world of martial artists for a long time. We will get rid of the evil cult so that the world will be at peace again.”
Once she said those words, the surface of the lake became calm once more in a very quiet manner. The ripples that had been formed by Zhu Yuyan calmed down in an unseen manner.
Zhu Yuyan walked at a calm pace to the lakeside.
“Fan Huixin, that nun, she sure is sticking her nose into everything. Do you really think that you, people from Kind Boathouse, are above all others? This is a war waging all over the land, so when have you lot become the ones who can make the decisions?”
At the moment she stepped on the surface of the lake, the water instantly started surging violently.
An astonishing wave gathered together into a long black sword under the moonlight, and it went straight for Shi Feixuan’s back.
“Senior, why do you insist on not realizing your own errors?”
When Shi Feixuan spoke, she no longer sounded as relaxed as before. With Great Sky Demon Art enveloping her, she had to pause for a brief moment between each word. There was a strange power contained in her words, and it caused the black water sword behind her to shatter inch by inch. When it crashed against her body, it no longer posed her a threat.
“You ignorant child, you speak in the same way as your mistress. Damn you!” Zhu Yuyan’s tone suddenly changed. A powerful killing intent filled the surface of the lake, and the moment she finished speaking…
Bang!
A violent qi flow caused splashes that rose several feet tall to erupt from the surface of the lake. As Zhu Yuyan suddenly increased the speed at which she moved, the splashes went charging at Shi Feixuan at the speed of lightning.
“Since you do not welcome me, I will take my leave.”
Shi Feixuan was not someone easy to deal with. She flung her longsword, and more than a thousand sword shadows were illuminated once the moonlight that reflected off the surface of the lake shone on them. They instantly shot through the splashes.
Then, with a tap against the water, she charged out like an arrow in her snow-white robe. She escaped from Sky Demon Aura and managed to flee from Zhu Yuyan’s clutches.
Boom!
The great wave of water landed around Zhu Yuyan like a storm.
Her face was incredibly dark while she stared at Shi Feixuan, who left into the distance.
“Her sword and mind are both very clear. I didn’t expect that a single normal disciple from Kind Boathouse would reach this state. No wonder… Fan Huixin, you’ve taught a good disciple,” she mumbled.
“Why didn’t we capture that disciple from Kind Boathouse? I was lacking a good furnace.”
An old man with a leer in his eyes walked out from the crowd. His gaze was fierce, and wherever he went, the female disciples would lower their heads.
Zhu Yuyan snorted coldly and said, “Sect Master Extreme Yin, when have I become your worker and need to capture people for you so that you can turn them into your furnaces? You can take action yourself. I injured her just now, and her mistress and I are mortal enemies, so I will have no opinion if you want to deal with her.”
She stopped talking for a moment before she found herself unable to hold back but say, “But I have to remind you. That girl’s sword technique is quite extraordinary. If you’re careless, you might end up dying in her hands.”
“Haha! I’ll die in the hands of a girl? Empress Yin, you are truly humorous.”
Once he finished speaking, the ground shuddered a little, and the old man was already more than sixty-five feet away from the surface of the lake. With a few more jumps, he quickly vanished from the sights of the evil cult disciples.
When Empress Yin saw that Sect Master Extreme Yin had indeed gone after Shi Feixuan, she snorted coldly. “Where is Wan Wan?”
“Empress Yin, Lady Wan Wan seemed to have noticed someone suspicious and went out after them. She just returned, but then left again.”
“That girl must be chasing after Shi Feixuan.” Zhu Yuyan’s eyes shone. “Hmph, that Sect Master Extreme Yin sure has benefitted from the situation.”
If Wan Wan and Sect Master Extreme Yin worked together, they would have no problem in taking down Shi Feixuan.
When Zhu Yuyan thought of that, she no longer bothered about Shi Feixuan. “Send my orders to have the others hurry up in their search and be sure to remain alert. Do not let anyone get close to Extreme Yin Lake!”
“Understood!”
The group of evil cult disciples voiced their obedience loudly.
*****
When Shi Feixuan was on a slope a few miles away from Extreme Yin Lake, she was finally unable to suppress the internal injuries in her body. She had to stop, sit cross-legged, and meditate to heal her wounds.
But soon, her eyes flew open. A black shadow was reflected in her dark and unfocused eyes. It appeared at the end of the slope as quickly as a phantom.
Based on the person’s speed and momentum, Shi Feixuan knew that she had run into a powerful enemy, and she would definitely not be able to run away while she was injured, but that person did not seem to belong to Yin Weed Faction.
A piercing and grating laughter shattered the silence of the night. Sect Master Extreme Yin moved quickly a few times; he only slowed down when he was ninety-eight feet away. He stared at Shi Feixuan while she got up with her sword and walked toward her slowly. “You’re Fan Huixin’s disciple, and member of Kind Boathouse.”
“And you are…” Shi Feixuan did not seem to have been injured based on her physical appearance.
“Heh heh. I am the sect master of Extreme Yin Sect. You may call me Old Extreme Yin.” Old Extreme Yin cackled evilly and said, “Coincidentally, I am lacking a furnace. Lass, you have great potential. Why don’t you follow me?”
“The likes of you?” Shi Feixuan’s tone did not contain any anger or any other emotion. Her eyes also seemed a little cold.
“I have never failed to capture a woman I set my eyes on.”
Sect Master Extreme Yin looked incredibly confident. But before he even finished speaking, he saw Shi Feixuan swing her longsword, and two flying needles were cut down soundlessly.
Sect Master Extreme Yin’s face tensed up.
“You’re pretty good. You actually managed to dodge my Profound Yin Needle.”
“Old Extreme Yin, if you this is all you have, then I suggest that you die here today.”
The longsword in Shi Feixuan’s hands shone with a blinding light, and it was so bright that Old Extreme Yin narrowed his eyes. He could practically not see Shi Feixuan anymore.
“The light of Clear Sword is not something someone with such low mental fortitude can block.” Shi Feixuan spoke at a volume that was basically a murmur before attacking.
The sword light in her hands was like the light of a bright moon, and it went charging at Sect Master Extreme Yin!
But at the same time, several flying needles shot out from the old man’s sleeves, and a smug, evil cackle rose from Old Extreme Yin’s lips in an extremely confident manner.
“Fall!”
