280 Surrounded!
Fresh blood spurted out as Li Xiao’s left leg went limp. He was shocked to find that his hamstring was broken.
Li Xiao used his right leg as a pivot point and swung his entire body into the air, drawing a circle. In the whirlwind, the sword in his hand shot out.
The nine dragons sword qi crossbow exploded with a fierce aura of the nine dragons that whistled across the sky. The Sacred Heart sect expert in front of him was stunned, completely ignoring the owner of the long spear that was about to kill him.
The Sacred Heart sect expert’s chest was pierced through by the sword, and blood gushed out of the fist-sized hole. But, he still managed to stand still, revealing a cold smile. “Heh, the sacred technique that we cultivate will not die so easily”
Before he could finish his sentence, a short sword pierced through his forehead.
“Metal qi technique, steel saber!” Li Xiao roared, and the short sword that was stabbed into his forehead exploded. But, before he could reveal a happy expression, an astonishing cold light shot into the sky from behind him.
Li Xiao felt a chill run down his legs, and the qi armor he wore was cut into pieces. His calf and thigh, along with a large piece of flesh and blood and his clothes, were cut off.
He turned around, crossing his arms and using his bones to block the attack of the spear behind him. Blood and flesh split open, but Li Xiao’s expression did not change at all. “A higher realm is really shameless. I just can’t defend against it.”
His qi armor was shredded like a thin piece of paper in front of the second second-level bone pattern realm warrior.
Li Xiao stood alone, flipped over, and picked up the sword. He looked at Reihom with a solemn expression. Even though he was unusually brave, he was only able to fight two first-level bone pattern realm warriors without falling into a disadvantage.
“Brother Reihom, you have done a great service to our Nine Dragons sect by defending against the attack of the county governor’s mansion and the Sacred Heart sect’s army. Our Nine Dragons sect will be eternally grateful for your kindness. Please listen to me later, and I will send you out of the encirclement,” Li Xiao said with a grateful tone.
Suddenly, a golden saber fell from the sky, cutting off the cold spear that was charging toward Li Xiao.
“Aren’t you going to give it to me?” Ge Youqian had a bitter expression. The golden armor on his body had already turned silver, and he had lost a lot of weight. Clearly, a treasured weapon had been shattered. Fortunately, he had brought a lot, so he could still hold on for a while.
“As far as I can, I can only send one person out,” Li Xiao said with a bitter smile. “The two of you have already done your best to help until now.”
He looked into the distance, and as the disciples of the Sacred Heart sect exerted their strength, the situation was almost one-sided. They had too many followers, and there were too many experts.
The battlefield was vast, stretching out as far as the eye could see. Li Xiao did not even dare to look at the other side where the killing was even more intense.
In this battle, the Twin Extreme sect and the Nine Dragons sect might die together.
As Li Xiao had thought, the old sect master of the Twin Extreme sect and Ge Youqian of the Fengxing Auction House were at a disadvantage from the beginning. Zou Shuang and Ji Yuan were their opponents, and they were at ease, controlling the battlefield while countering. It vividly displayed the rich heritage of the people from the big province.
As for Li Zeren and Li Zewu, who were formed by the accumulation of the Nine Dragons sect’s many treasured weapons, their artifacts were destroyed by Song Ya and Feng Xigu one by one, leaving them at a disadvantage.
The disciples of the Nine Dragons sect were even worse off. Even with the poisons to support them, they could fight two or even three enemies at once without falling into a disadvantage.
Meanwhile, as more and more people died, the blood qi that filled the sky made the soldiers of the county governor’s mansion who cultivated the Four-directional tiger-wolf technique become even more ferocious. Large groups of the Nine Dragons sect’s disciples fell to the ground one after another.
“It’s all over,” Li Xiao laughed bitterly, but he did not feel any regret. When he received the letter from his father recalling him, his father had told him the truth.
The Nine Dragons sect might not be able to survive this battle, but he could choose not to return. His father would handle the pressure in the sect for him.
However, Li Xiao returned without hesitation. It wasn’t because he was righteous and concerned about the sect, but because his parents and relatives were all in the Nine Dragons sect. If he became a coward, he would probably have nightmares all night long.
“I’m most afraid of nightmares,” Li Xiao muttered. “Rather than having a nightmare, it’s better to die.”
The two people beside him were confused, but suddenly, in their field of vision, a figure in a red dress was flying backward in the air while hugging another figure. It was as dazzling as a meteor, and the frozen earth exploded as they landed, the soil soaked in blood flying everywhere.
The three of them felt their hearts tighten and were about to charge over.
A stream of blood spurted out from the frozen soil like a fountain, and in the next second, the figure stood on a higher spot with her hair draped over her shoulders. Her bright dress gradually darkened, revealing the silhouette of her slender legs, and her black hair danced wildly in the cold wind.
She held two blood-stained spears in her hands, and her eyes were still as firm as beforea domineering figure.
Li Xiao and the other two couldn’t help but glance at her. “This is the Little Sister Shaoxiang I know.”
