The Great Qin: Starting with marrying Jingni, I began my quest for immortality.

A faint smile appeared on Bai Yifei's lips. "The Great General's strength is unfathomable. He has mastered external martial arts to the highest level. Even I would not be confident if you were at your peak. Therefore, I can only choose to lie low."

"But now it's different. You're injured, and your external skills have been broken, which has left you vulnerable."

"How much of your former strength do you still possess now?"

Bai Yifei spoke eloquently, his gaze lingering on Ji Wuye with amusement.

Upon hearing this, Ji Wuye immediately understood Bai Yifei's intention.

"You want to kill me and take my place?"

The Bai Yifei before him seemed like a stranger, and it was the first time he had realized Bai Yifei's true purpose.

Bai Yifei laughed and said, "How can a 27-year-old man remain subservient to others? You have been in the position of General of Han for many years. Now, you are old and it is time for you to step down and give way to a more capable person."

"You? You think you can beat me?" Ji Wuye's face showed anger.

In the next instant, his eight-foot-long sword, which he wore at his waist, was suddenly drawn.

A terrifying slash was unleashed, and a vast expanse of sword light swept towards Bai Yifei.

Even though the person in front of him was Blood-Clad Marquis Bai Yifei, Ji Wuye attacked without any hesitation. For him, everyone who betrayed him had to die, even if that person was Bai Yifei.

At the same time, he also had to kill Bai Yifei.

As the leader of the Four Fiends of the Night, Bai Yifei has helped him with many things over the years, and Ji Wuye is well aware of Bai Yifei's abilities.

If Bai Yifei succeeds this time, he will kill me while I am injured.

Given Bai Yifei's position in the night, his position in the army might indeed be able to replace him.

Ji Wuye could not tolerate such a thing happening.

As the blade approached Bai Yifei, he swiftly withdrew and retreated, avoiding Ji Wuye's attack. At the same time, he drew the two swords from his waist.

Two swords, one red and one white, slashed out in a cross pattern, their light flashing, heading towards Ji Wuye.

Although Ji Wuye was injured because of Zi Nu, he appeared even more ferocious in his injured state.

A fierce aura emanated from him, and with a single slash, he shattered Bai Yifei's sword light.

"Your strength seems to be not as good as before."

"It seems your injury is more serious than I thought."

"You think you can kill me when we're both injured? That's wishful thinking."

Because Bai Yifei was an old acquaintance and had been one of his capable subordinates in the past, Ji Wuye didn't mind chatting with him a bit more before killing him.

As for why Bai Yifei chose to betray?

The reasons have already been explained very clearly.

A true man should not remain subservient to others for long!

This is the reason given by Bai Yifei.

Clearly, Bai Yifei's long-term subservience to him had fostered ambition in him.

This is not surprising, after all, Bai Yifei was a general in charge of 100,000 troops in South Korea. Being driven by him all along, it was inevitable that he would feel resentful.

But this is not a reason for Bai Yifei's betrayal.

After Ji Wuye finished speaking, his killing intent intensified.

Bai Yifei's expression remained unchanged as he held his twin swords, desperately trying to fend off Ji Wuye's attacks.

Swords clashed.

Because Ji Wuye practiced external martial arts, his strength was much greater than that of ordinary people. After several exchanges, Bai Yifei's hands holding the sword trembled slightly.

"Hmph, is that all?"

Ji Wuye noticed Bai Yifei's disadvantage and spoke with increasing disdain.

Bai Yifei, however, showed no sign of panic when he was at a disadvantage. He suddenly turned to Ji Wuye and asked, "General, do you know what the martial world is?"

Ji Wuye raised an eyebrow. "What exactly are you talking about?"

Today's Bai Yifei was someone he had never seen before. Not only did he act very unfamiliar, but the things he said were also inexplicable.

Bai Yifei continued, "The martial world is not just about fighting and killing, but also about... human relationships and worldly wisdom."

After using the idiom "human relationships and worldly wisdom," Bai Yifei suddenly spoke again, "Make your move!"

Ji Wuye was the first to feel a scorching heat coming from the side, a feeling that reminded him of Zi Nu, who had tried to assassinate him earlier.

Besides the Chain Serpent Soft Sword, Zi Nu can also manipulate purple flames to launch attacks.

However, there is still one difference.

The flames that appeared beside Ji Wuye at this moment were not purple flames, but normal flames.

Flames erupted, and a beautiful woman wielding a fire spirit hairpin appeared, launching an attack on Ji Wuye.

Yan Lingji!

Ji Wuye was not actually familiar with her, since the main general in the battle against Baiyue was Bai Yifei, not Ji Wuye, so he did not recognize Yan Lingji at first.

However, this is not important and does not affect his decision to consider Yan Lingji as Bai Yifei's helper.

With a single slash, the blade flashed, extinguishing the flames instantly.

Ji Wuye unleashed several more slashes, forcing Yan Lingji to retreat.

303

"This is your helper? Nothing special!"

Ji Wuye was extremely arrogant. Even with Bai Yifei by his side and the addition of Yan Lingji, he did not believe he would lose.

Until, he saw another flash of sword light.

Unlike the red and white sword light that Bai Yifei had released earlier, this sword strike was extremely cunning.

Ji Wuye's hair stood on end.

As a master of external martial arts, Ji Wuye's combat strength is much greater than that of an ordinary master.

External martial arts are inherently difficult to cultivate, and reaching the level of a grandmaster is even more challenging. However, once one reaches this level, one can be considered invincible below the level of a grandmaster.

Because of this formidable strength, he boasted that he could handle any situation.

Even if he was injured, it was not the time for Bai Yifei to act recklessly.

However, the situation is different now.

Ji Wuye's instincts made him sense a powerful sense of crisis.

If I cannot dodge this sword, I may very well die.

Ji Wuye moved nimbly, wielding his eight-foot-long sword with incredible speed. Finally, in a moment of haste, Ji Wuye managed to block the sword.

The sounds of swords clashing echoed, and a powerful force swept outwards in all directions.

Chapter 161 You are not Bai Yifei, who are you?

However, Ji Wuye did not force the sword away as he had forced Bai Yifei's sword away before.

It was clearly just a single sword.

But this sword is more powerful than Bai Yifei's twin swords.

The sword energy was like frost and snow.

Ji Wuye felt a chill run through his body.

His sword aura was actually dimmed by the opponent's sword aura.

"Who are you exactly?"

"A master like you is actually willing to be used by Bai Yifei?"

Ji Wuye was somewhat puzzled.

Admittedly, Bai Yifei was also very powerful; otherwise, he could not have become the victor in the battle against Baiyue ten years ago and been named the Blood-Clad Marquis. However, in his perception, the person who made the move was even more powerful than Bai Yifei. More importantly, Ji Wuye realized that the person who made the move was a woman.

What kind of woman is she that is so powerful and chooses to help Bai Yifei?

The opponent did not answer Ji Wuye's question. Instead, he separated his sword from Ji Wuye's knife and attacked Ji Wuye with another sword strike.

A cold smile crept across Ji Wuye's lips.

Since I haven't gotten an answer from him, I'll just have to find out for myself after he wins.

The long sword was swung.

Ji Wuye's sword is a very unique bronze longsword named Ba Chi. Although it is not very sharp, it is an extremely ancient weapon. With this sword, Ji Wuye has killed countless enemies.

It can be said that it was this sword that accompanied him from a mere retainer to becoming a great general of the State of Han.

Besides his mastery of external martial arts, which had reached the level of a grandmaster, Ji Wuye's swordsmanship was also sharp and ruthless.

The blades flashed like a net, layer upon layer, striking down one after another. Often, before one strike was finished, another would follow, the blades intertwining. Moreover, due to Ji Wuye's powerful external martial arts skills, each of his strikes was forceful and heavy.

The Jingni Sword wielded by Ru Shuang is an extremely light and agile sword. She excels at using light and agile swordplay and prefers to defeat the enemy with a single blow. It can be said that it is the exact opposite of Ji Wuye's saber.
