Invincible!

Chapter 26 Obsession
"boom!"

The blade flashed.

He drew a crescent-shaped arc to block the sword strike coming from behind.

Swords clash.

Compared to the explosive power of the internal energy cultivation realm, the Blood Rejuvenation and Marrow Cleansing realm caused Luo Teng's palm to tremble violently as he charged forward with his sword, almost losing his grip on the hilt.

The next second, as their swords clashed and their defenses were wide open, Li Xian's left hand had already formed a sword, and he stabbed at them with lightning speed.

"not good!"

Sensing the danger, Luo Teng's pupils contracted sharply, and he immediately tried to turn his head away.

But Li Xian's finger strike came too fast and too accurately.

It was as if he had already devised a battle plan against those who would ambush him from behind while he was beheading Xuan Tie Dao Ren.

If your kung fu is even slightly better, it's infinitely better.

A life-or-death struggle is a battle of wits.

With a slight shift of his arm, Li Xian's finger-splitting sword-like thrust landed with unparalleled precision on Luo Teng's head, which was already desperately trying to dodge—his throat!
"Oh!"

Unleashing tremendous power!

Luo Teng's thyroid cartilage shattered like an eggshell, his cricoid cartilage broke and collapsed, inserting into the trachea, and the bone fragments cut a three-centimeter longitudinal laceration in the carotid artery!

As blood gushed from his nose and mouth, the cervical vertebrae crushed the spinal cord and destroyed the vagus nerve inside.

Luo Teng's eyes widened suddenly, his pupils filled with terror, yet reflecting a calm and composed face.

Breathing, heartbeat, abruptly stopped.

Even after snapping Luo Teng's cervical vertebrae with a sword-like gesture, his attack immediately transformed into a fist, slamming forward with tremendous force. The force of the punch sent the captain of the royal guards, who had mastered the internal energy cultivation, flying several meters backward before crashing heavily to the ground.

Double kill!

Only then did Yan Kaigui and Ma Fu's exclamations rise again from the second floor.

"Sect Leader Xuan Tie!?"

"stop!"

But their cries were destined to be in vain.

Seeing the dismembered corpse and the guard captain Luo Teng killed with a single finger, Prince Yan Kaigui of Yue upstairs felt as if he had fallen into an ice cave.

Xuan Tie Daoist...

That was a master who had achieved the ultimate in blood transfusion and marrow cleansing, and he actually died at Li Xian's hands!?
How could a frail scholar from three months ago have grown so powerful in such a short time?!
How can it be! ?
How could such a thing happen in the world?!

Just as the Crown Prince of Yue was feeling his worldview being turned upside down, Li Xian had already looked up and his gaze fell on them.

One look from him seemed to give Ma Fu a chilling feeling, like when he was still young and his body was being stared at by a tiger in the forest.

Do not!
Not as if!

Even the Xuan Tie Daoist, who had achieved the Great Perfection of Blood Rejuvenation and Marrow Cleansing, died under Li Xian's blade. His progress in blood rejuvenation was even a notch behind that of the Xuan Tie Daoist. Facing the fierce and unparalleled Li Xian, what difference was there between him and an ordinary person who had just reached the Ming Jin stage facing a fierce tiger?

"Your Highness! Run!"

Ma Fu made a quick decision and prepared to break through the window and escape with the Crown Prince of Yue.

Almost at the same moment he made a move, Li Xian downstairs leaped into the air.

With a few quick steps, he leaped into the air, then used the stair railing for leverage, and his body had already jumped more than two meters into the air, ready to flip upstairs.

"Stop him!"

Yan Kaigui reacted extremely quickly, letting out a sharp shout.

This order was clearly given to the guards in the arena.

He, however, rushed to the window immediately.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Juechen stepped forward without hesitation.

But Ma Fu, who was prepared, blocked his way with his arm: "Zhou Juechen, do you want to cause the entire Zhou family to be executed!"

Zhou Juechen moved swiftly, launching a fierce attack that instantly encompassed Ma Fu.

But when Ma Fu stopped him, Yan Kaigui, one of the Three Heroes of the Lijiang River who had already achieved great success in his internal organs and was undergoing a blood transfusion and marrow cleansing, jumped out of the window of Guantao Tower.

On the other side, the guards who received the order knew they were no match for him, but more than half of them gritted their teeth, drew their knives, and charged straight at Li Xian, who was trying to climb upstairs.

Those selected to serve as guards in the Prince's Palace were all strong; they were all physically and mentally mature.

A dozen or so martial artists, all at the peak of their physical abilities, charged forward one after another, hacking away with their blades, creating a chaotic scene of flashing swords and completely blocking the space for Li Xian to go upstairs.

However, facing so many skilled opponents, Li Xian's battle blade flew like a meteor from outer space, instantly deflecting three swords that were slashing towards him. Then, he used the second-floor railing for leverage and broke through the encirclement of more than a dozen martial artists who had reached the peak of their physical abilities.

The next moment, as he threw out his long sword, he kicked the hilt of the sword in mid-air, and the sword shot through the air like a streak of light, heading straight for the Prince of Yue who had already jumped down from Guantao Tower.

This scene terrified Ma Fu, who cried out, "Young Master, be careful!"

Hearing the shouts, Yan Kaigui turned his head slightly and saw the blade of light piercing through the void. Uncontrollable fear welled up in his eyes.

"No!"

"call out!"

The blade flashed and struck Yan Kaigui squarely in the back!

however……

The scene that everyone expected—Yan Kaigui being pierced through the body by this knife—did not occur.

A golden light suddenly burst forth from his body, instantly striking the battle blade that shot through the air.

Under the burst of golden light, the battle sword was directly blasted away, spinning in mid-air before bouncing into the wall of a shop more than ten meters away, with half of the blade embedded in it, kicking up clouds of dust.

This demonstrates the immense power released by the golden light!
This change surprised not only Ma Fu and Zhou Juechen, but also Li Xian.

"Golden Light Talisman!"

Without the slightest hesitation, Yan Kaigui, whose life had been saved by the golden light, sped off again towards the street corner.

"Although I don't know what it is, it looks very powerful." Li Xian sincerely exclaimed, "In a life-or-death battle, anything can happen."

As he spoke, he dodged two swords that suddenly slashed at him from behind, his feet darting about, his right hand thrusting out, instantly grabbing a guard's wrist and twisting it forcefully...

Amidst screams, a battle sword in the guard's hand fell into his left hand. Then, with a horizontal slash, he deflected the two blades that followed. With a further burst of force, the sword swept past the throats of the two guards faster than they could react.

Then, he strode forward, his eyes fixed on Yan Kaigui, who was trying to blend into the crowd, and headed straight for the window, ready to jump down.

"Li Xian!"

Just then, a shout came from the side.

Liu Yanran swiftly intercepted him, blocking his path.

"I won't allow you to hurt Brother Kai! Get out of my way!"

Li Xian glanced at her, then swung the knife down without hesitation.

Blade flash...

It lunged directly at Liu Yanran's throat.

This decisive action left not only Liu Yanran stunned, but even Zhou Juechen, who had suppressed Ma Fu, taken aback.

This……

They're already using surgery?!

Just as this strike was about to behead Liu Yanran on the spot, a strong sense of reluctance welled up in his heart, causing his blade to tremble slightly as he unleashed the blow.

This brief delay caused Liu Yanran, who had also studied martial arts but had not yet achieved full mastery of her skills, to let out a terrified scream.

"what!"

She retreated sharply, narrowly avoiding the blade that swept past her.

In that brief moment, Yan Kaigui had completely disappeared into the crowd and vanished around the street corner.

Seeing this, Ma Fu also lost the will to fight.

“Nephew, let’s stop here. You and I are outsiders. Why fight to the death over the grudges between Li Xian and the Yue Prince’s Mansion?”

Zhou Juechen did not speak.

His martial arts are not pure enough.

It is influenced by too many external factors.

All he wants now is to have a good game.

Without any ulterior motives or biases, find someone of similar realm to exchange blood and marrow, have a good, unrestrained fight, trace the essence of martial arts itself, and enjoy the spiritual thrill of life-or-death combat.

Ma Fu, who is an old friend, is the perfect target to break free from these constraints and clear his mind of distractions.

Therefore, his attack did not stop for a moment.

His attacks continued, but Li Xian's attacks stopped.

He looked at the knife in his hand...

Feeling that intense, unbearable feeling suddenly welling up from the depths of my heart...

Is her body instinctively resisting anything detrimental to Liu Yanran?

"The obsession won't go away?"

He was somewhat surprised.

This is an unprecedented experience.

but……

The experience of transmigrating to another world and being reborn in another body is already bizarre enough. The fact that the original "Li Xian" is dead but still retains his obsessions doesn't seem strange at all.

At that moment, Liu Yanran seemed to have discerned something from Li Xian's sudden halt in his strike.

Her confidence immediately returned.

"Li Xian! Are you insane?! You dare to draw your sword against me?! You even want to hurt me?! Do you know what you promised me?! Now that you've practiced demonic arts and are armed, is this what you're going to do to me?"

Liu Yanran glared fiercely at Li Xian and shouted sharply, "Put down the knife!"

"Although it's somewhat novel, Li Xian... you're dead."

Li Xian silently said to himself, "Now, it is me, Li Xian."

He looked up at Liu Yanran.

She was indeed very beautiful; none of the young women he had met so far, such as Hongyu, Li Hanbing, and Yan Ruxue, could compare to her.

She also possessed the noble air of a noble lady from a noble family.

The combination of the two is indeed incredibly attractive to students from impoverished backgrounds like Li Xian.

Liu Yanran felt extremely uncomfortable under Li Xian's gaze, and deep down she seemed to feel an indescribable fear.

But this fear was quickly replaced by Li Xian's submissive behavior in front of her all these years. This realization gave her the confidence to continue to boss people around: "Li Xian! I told you to put down the knife, and you dare to disobey me?!"

"Yan Lian was just a servant. Without orders, he wouldn't dare kick 'Li Xian,' whose identity was sensitive at the time, into the river. So, that night two months ago, was it you who gave the order?"

Li suddenly said.

That night two months ago?

Upon hearing this, a hint of panic flashed in Liu Yanran's eyes.

But of course, she couldn't admit it. Instead, she used anger to cover up the real problem: "Li Xian, I'm asking you a question! Answer me! You still won't put down your knife, do you want to kill me?! Come on! If you're so capable, then kill me, kill me, I..."

Before he could finish speaking, Li Xian suddenly slashed with the sword he hadn't put down.

"I have never heard of such a strange request."

"laugh!"

A line of blood immediately appeared on Liu Yanran's fair neck, and her fierce but cowardly command came to an abrupt halt.
