Faced with this fierce attack, Jin Cunyue merely responded with a cold smile.
"Too slow!"
As he spoke, he reached out and struck the blade of the Quenching Shadow Saber, sending it flying away.
Wang Tiancheng, realizing the dire situation, wanted to dodge, but it was too late.
Jin Cunyue delivered another palm strike.
With no other option, Wang Tiancheng had to muster all his strength to defend.
Boom!
He was blasted away, crashing into a stone slab on the ground, shattering it.
Simultaneously, Xu Niannian, who was attacking from behind, was also sent flying by Jin Cunyue.
Afterward, Jin Cunyue didn’t spare them a glance, stepping forward to appear right before the Zhao Family’s main gate, giving it a gentle wave.
The gate shattered instantly.
Jin Cunyue stepped inside and saw under the corridor, Zui’Er holding a long saber, her pretty face cold as she watched him, with Shang Luoluo standing behind her, causing him to smile slightly.
"Interesting, Zhao Ya could abandon such a beautiful lady and flee, he seems to have the makings of a formidable hero."
Neither he nor Lang Songbai and the others knew Zhao Ya had gone into seclusion; they all thought Zhao Ya had fled upon seeing the unfavorable situation.
"You... don’t come any closer, my saber technique is formidable, and this is the Great Yan Capital City, the official army will arrive soon." Zui’Er shouted, trying to remain calm.
Jin Cunyue, of course, paid no heed to these threats, finding them amusing as he stepped into the courtyard, smiling.
"How formidable?"
"You...." Zui’Er was at a loss for words.
Because Jin Cunyue’s aura was simply too powerful for him to withstand.
At this moment, Wang Tiancheng and Xu Niannian struggled to get up from the ground, intending to charge into the courtyard.
But Jin Cunyue, with lightning-fast body technique, appeared right in front of Zui’Er in a flash, effortlessly snatching away the saber from her hand.
"With such a saber, you intend to hurt me?"
Jin Cunyue smiled, lightly gripping the saber.
The sharp long saber was crushed into a lump of scrap metal.
Zui’Er’s face showed a panicked expression, like a startled fawn.
In contrast, Shang Luoluo remained much calmer, though the dagger hidden in her sleeve trembled slightly.
"Such a beauty!"
Jin Cunyue sighed, reaching out to touch Shang Luoluo’s cheek.
But just then, a blade light, cold and electric-like, suddenly flashed in the sky, slicing toward them at great speed from afar.
In the blink of an eye, it was right in front, aiming straight for Jin Cunyue’s neck.
Jin Cunyue, who had been calm and composed, no longer remained so, his expression drastically changing as he leapt back to narrowly avoid the strike.
But even as he tried to catch his breath, the blade chased after him relentlessly, striking again.
This strike was even faster than before.
With no retreat left, Jin Cunyue had no choice but to raise his palms to meet it.
"Bright Moon Force!"
With a shout, his palms glowed with a faint halo.
It was the famous Bright Moon Force of Bright Moon Valley.
With its protection, Jin Cunyue’s palms were supposed to be indestructible, even a divine weapon would find it hard to penetrate his defense.
But this time, the Bright Moon Force, which Jin Cunyue prided himself on, seemed to falter.
Hiss.
The sound of slicing through leather echoed as the blade light drew a trail of blood droplets, forcing the pale-faced Jin Cunyue to retreat rapidly, his hands trembling slightly.
If he hadn’t sensed the dire situation and retreated rapidly at the last moment, that single strike could have cut off half his palm.
Could it be the Sect Leader or an Elder from the Three Sects, Two Academies, or One Manor?
No, not even they would possess such strength.
This strike was even stronger than some Meridian Opening experts from Beyond the World.
Just as he was puzzled, a young man appeared before him.
Holding the Meteorite Iron Saber, his face full of killing intent, who else could it be but Zhao Ya?
Upon seeing Zhao Ya, Jin Cunyue was initially stunned, then his face filled with disbelief, "How is this possible? Only in the Fifth Realm?"
