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

In an instant, the sword energy exploded and, under Duan Shui's control, poured towards Ru Shuang.

In the past, Ru Shuang, who had only recently become a top-tier swordsman, would certainly have been no match for Duan Shui, a veteran top-tier swordsman. However, after observing Wu Ming's sword strike, she grasped the essence of that sword strike in a desperate situation.

She then married Jiang Chuan. Through dual cultivation with Jiang Chuan, she further comprehended the world, saw the world and herself. She was only one step away from seeing all living beings. Ru Shuang could then reach the Grandmaster realm.

Now, her strength has long surpassed that of Duan Shui.

The pink sword energy swirled, completely obliterating the numerous sword energies released by Duan Shui.

Then, the Jingni Sword made contact with the Duanshui Sword and instantly suppressed the Duanshui Sword.

Duan Shui naturally realized the opponent's strength, and recognized Ru Shuang's identity after she appeared.

Because that sword was truly extraordinary.

The one who intervened to stop him was, without a doubt, Jing Ni, a traitor from Luo Wang.

Even he didn't expect to see such a traitor as Jing Ni here.

Since Jing Ni defected with her sword, Luo Wang has been searching for her for a long time, but without any results.

So, the other party was hiding in this place called Xinzheng.

As for why the other party took the initiative to stop him tonight?

I didn't think much about the water shortage.

He was convinced of only one thing: Jing Ni couldn't stop him.

Both Jing Ni and his target must die.

Duan Shui is very confident in his abilities.

But in the end, he was suppressed by Jing Ni.

In such a short period of time, Jingni's strength has improved to such an extent.

This was something we hadn't anticipated regarding the water shortage.

Originally, the person in charge of this mission was Xuan Jian.

However, because Xuan Jian was in a very special condition, the people behind him were worried that Xuan Jian would not be able to complete this mission, so they sent him out to clean up the mess and complete the mission for Xuan Jian.

As it turned out, the man was right.

Xuan Jian alone is indeed not enough to complete this mission; he is currently tied up.

The nights in South Korea are filled with a bunch of useless people.

Only I can complete this mission.

However, Jingni's appearance introduced another twist to the mission.

Duan Shui absolutely would not allow Jing Ni to ruin his mission. Realizing how difficult Jing Ni was to deal with, he prepared to use words to dismantle her offensive: "Jing Ni, are you really determined to betray Luo Wang?"

"If you give up trying to stop me and obediently join forces with me to kill that person, I can guarantee that the Luo Wang will no longer pursue your past betrayals."

Upon hearing Duan Shui's words, Ru Shuang was slightly lost in thought, and even her sword slowed down by a fraction.

Duan Shui noticed Ru Shuang's sudden change and immediately realized there was a chance. Just as he was about to speak again, Ru Shuang's sword suddenly became even sharper. "I'm sorry, if you weren't a member of the Luo Wang, I might believe you."

“But you are the top-ranking member of the Net, and your words have no credibility with me whatsoever.”

She knows the web of intrigue all too well.

Moreover, she had already discussed with her husband Jiang Chuan how to help Ying Zheng and use the power of the King of Qin to escape the trap, so why would she change her mind at the last minute?

The frost-like sword moved with increasing speed.

Duan Shui also realized that his words could not sway Jing Ni.

To kill the mission target, we must first deal with Jing Ni.

"Do you think you can stop me?"

Duan Shui's words contained anger.

With a single swing of the sword, terrifying sword energy carried a sharp power capable of cutting through anything.

The skin color remains unchanged even with frost.

Holding the Jingni Sword, she recalled the move that Wuming had used years ago, and then thought of the move she herself had used in a desperate situation. With a tremor, she swung the sword.

This sword strike is extremely similar to the one that Nameless used years ago, and the one she used when she was in dire straits. At least the movements are the same, but the underlying principles are completely different.

Because Ru Shuang has gained new insights that are contained within it.

If her previous moves were simply imitations of Wuming, with the underlying principle being Wuming's "sitting in oblivion, without intention, a gentleman does not contend," then now, what it contains is Ru Shuang's own principle.

Even though this move was still quite immature, in Ru Shuang's hands, this sword strike was more powerful than ever before, because it was a sword move that belonged to her alone.

The sword energy that had been cleaving the water froze in mid-air, and then, under the dazzling sword light, it dispersed like smoke. The crisis of death enveloped Duan Shui's body and mind.

Duan Shui truly lived up to his reputation as a top-tier member of the Luo Wang organization; even at this moment, his figure was not frozen in place by the power of this sword strike.

They managed to break free and launch a difficult counterattack.

Another sword strike was unleashed by Duan Shui.

This was a sword strike he had poured all his strength into.

This change surprised Jiang Chuan, who was sitting at the front of the carriage chatting with Ying Zheng.

He also knew how to use the Frost Sword, and he was well aware of its power.

As a result, Duan Shui lived up to the reputation of being the top-tier leader in the Luo Wang organization, and even had the strength to resist.

Thinking of this, Jiang Chuan suddenly drew the sword he always carried with him.

And so, under Ying Zheng's watchful gaze, Jiang Chuan leaped forward and unleashed a sword strike.

Chapter 113 A Decisive Strike with a Sword

Jiang Chuan's strength is naturally incomparable to that of Ru Shuang and Duan Shui, who are among the top-tier members of the Luo Wang organization.

To become a top-tier member of the Luo Wang organization, one must possess at least the strength of a grandmaster.

Perhaps their strength was increased through some trickery, and they are not considered very powerful among grandmasters. They also rely too much on the famous swords in their hands. But a grandmaster is still a grandmaster, and they are still above the innate level.

Jiang Chuan's strength is merely at the Innate level.

He hadn't been a Xiantian for very long. Although he had heard a heavenly melody through dual cultivation with Nongyu and attained enlightenment in one night, which directly advanced his strength to the late Xiantian stage, he still had a long way to go before becoming a Grandmaster.

However, even if it's just innate.

It can also play a role in this battle.

Ultimately, the difference between being a master and a grandmaster is only one realm.

The advantage of Grandmasters over those born with innate abilities lies only in their ability to control more of the power of heaven and earth and draw more of that power into their bodies.

The so-called essence, energy, and spirit are the three treasures of the human body.

After refining essence to open the bridge between heaven and earth and advance to the innate realm, one reaches the realm of refining essence into qi. After the innate realm, the focus shifts to qi cultivation, a long process that continues for several realms until one reaches the grandmaster level, at which point one can be considered to have mastered qi cultivation. After that, the final realm is spirit cultivation.

Upon reaching the Refining Spirit Realm, one can use divine sense to fight enemies. Furthermore, one can leave one's own divine sense on the enemy, achieving the ability to lock the soul over a thousand miles. With the help of divine perception, one can also foresee opportunities, which is the so-called "cicada senses the autumn wind before it blows".

But he was a grandmaster after all.

While there is a gap between Grandmasters and Innate Masters, who are below Grandmasters, the gap is not as large as one might imagine.

Under certain conditions, even someone with innate talent can defeat a grandmaster.

No, it should be said that, under certain conditions, even a helpless child can kill a grandmaster.

The premise is that the other party is completely unprepared.

Now, the conditions are met.

When Ru Shuang and Duan Shui clashed, Duan Shui was no match. The only reason he was able to escape the effects of Ru Shuang's sword was because he was strong enough.

Even though Ru Shuang's strength surpasses Duan Shui's, she doesn't have an overwhelming advantage; Ru Shuang is not a true grandmaster yet.

Even with the water cut off, they still have some remaining strength to resist.

So, what if Jiang Chuan also wields his sword?

Jiang Chuan's sword strike was exactly the same as Ru Shuang's, with identical movements. After the sword was swung, even more intense fire elemental power converged towards Jiang Chuan.

Ordinary innate talents cannot draw upon much of the power of heaven and earth, but what if Jiang Chuan possesses the Fire Virtue Body?

The power of fire spirit is also a part of the power of heaven and earth, and it is even purer than ordinary power of heaven and earth.

An invisible ripple moved toward the back of Duan Shui.

Duan Shui never expected that such a change would occur during his battle with Jing Ni.

He was affected by Jiang Chuan's sword strike, and his movements immediately froze.

It was during this meal.

Ru Shuang's swordplay was unstoppable, interrupting Duan Shui's attack. He was met with Ru Shuang's sword light in disbelief.

The sword light pierced through Duan Shui's body.

Time seemed to stand still, but the stillness didn't last long; it soon resumed.
