Whoos.h.!.+

A figure rapidly blocked Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue—it was Nan Suhuai!

“I’ll handle this place. Rong Xiu, bring Yue’er back!” Nan Suhuai boomed.

Just when the two of them came out, he saw that Yue’er was already unconscious in Rong Xiu’s embrace. He didn’t know her exact condition, so he naturally didn’t dare to let the two of them take the risk.

Rong Xiu didn’t hesitate. Upon hearing this, he went on his toes and retreated!

A dark-blue light flashed across!

A sharp, longsword suddenly appeared in Nan Suhuai’s hand!

That longsword was entirely translucent and dark blue. It was about three fingers wide, and a strange pattern was engraved on the sword body.

As it waved around, it gleamed coldly.

Nan Suhuai held the sword with both hands, stood up straight, and his aura moved! The next moment, the surrounding Heaven and Earth Force seemed to be summoned as it crazily surged up his sword!

As the sword acc.u.mulated more and more force, its color became increasingly deep and pure! At first glance, it seemed to be formed with sapphire!

Huahua—

The rich Heaven and Earth Force almost formed a gigantic vortex around Nan Suhuai. The suppression was intense!

At this moment, that black hand had already approached Nan Suhuai!

Whoos.h.!.+

Nan Suhuai’s expression turned harsh as he raised the sword with both hands and swung it down harshly!

Dark-blue sword light suddenly flew out!

Huala!

Following this tiny sound, a large gap in s.p.a.ce was directly slashed right open in front of him!

A boundless black current flowed around!

At the same time, Shangguan Jing and Elder Meng moved!

Shangguan Jing held the longsword and slashed forward.

Elder Meng stood with his hands crossed as he hurled out force that instantly formed an extremely sharp triangular awl!

The three of them each took one side and trapped the black hand in the middle!

The forces erupted between heaven and earth as they intersected and fell into a chaotic battle!

…

Rong Xiu carried Chu Liuyue and rapidly retreated.

At this point, they were still under the control of that black hand, so the surrounding force moved around crazily.

The many sharp strands of aura sc.r.a.ped past them like sharp blades!

Whoos.h.!.+

An extremely soft air-piercing sound was heard.

Rong Xiu’s gaze turned sharp as held the person in his arms even tighter and dodged! At the same time, a golden spark suddenly exploded before the two of them, forming a wall of fire!

It blocked all the crazy force outside!

Chu Liuyue’s hair was silently cut and floated in midair.

Murderous intent overwhelmed Rong Xiu’s eyes! A speck of intense black quickly flashed across his eyes!

“Cough, cough cough—” At this point, Chu Liuyue suddenly coughed.

Rong Xiu immediately lowered his head and saw that her pale face was wrinkled together and that her brows were tightly furrowed. Her thick and long lashes trembled slightly.

“Yue’er!” Rong Xiu called out and tightened his hold on her waist.

Chu Liuyue finally woke up slowly and opened her eyes. Seeing Rong Xiu, there was still momentary confusion in her eyes as if she hadn’t understood what exactly was going on.

However, Rong Xiu heaved a sigh of relief as he leaned down and gently kissed her brows. He did it in an extremely controlled and cheris.h.i.+ng manner.

I really don’t want to see the same scene happen again. Now that I can still see her wake up, it is for the best. 

The slightly cold and soft lips gently pressed a kiss on her brows. She leaned against his hard, wide, and warm chest, hearing his powerful heart beat again and again.

Chu Liuyue then recalled what happened.

“Rong Xiu?” she muttered and instinctively looked at her surroundings. “We’re… out?”

Actually, she had always been in a semi-conscious state. She wanted to wake up, but she couldn’t open her eyes no matter what.

In her impression, she had run in that boundless white s.p.a.ce for a very long time. It was only until she reached the fiery field that she finally broke free of that invisible restraint.

At this point, it was late at night. The sky was dark, and clouds had gathered, but she couldn’t see the moon or stars.

But not far away, an intense battle was taking place.

When she saw that gigantic black hand, Chu Liuyue was dazed for a moment and suddenly understood something. That’s the item suppressed under Million Wine Mountain! That aura would definitely not be wrong! However… how could a hand contain such terrifying force? 

Once that thought flashed across her mind, Chu Liuyue saw a considerable amount of force harshly rus.h.i.+ng toward that hand!

The dark-blue sword light had already rushed to that hand!

Tsing! 

A loud impact was heard again!

The sword aura attacked that hand, but it was like a sword that landed on extremely hard metal!

Nan Suhuai was shocked. The next moment, he saw that the dark-blue sword light broke with the sound!

Countless rays of light scattered everywhere!

Nan Suhuai’s chest vibrated, and blood seeped out from the corner of his mouth.

Shangguan Jing and Elder Meng exchanged a glance and saw the shock in each other’s eyes. This hand’s… suppression seems much scarier than we had expected! 

Nan Suhuai had used his full force in this attack! However, the effortful sword attack of a legendary warrior was worth nothing in front of this hand!

That hand continued forward.

Nan Suhuai raised his sword, but the black hand grabbed the blade!

The extremely sharp blade didn’t even leave a scar behind on that hand!

Nan Suhuai knew that something was amiss and immediately wanted to retreat! However, it was too late!

That black hand harshly slashed down!

Ka! 

Nan Suhuai’s sword was cut into two! At the same time, Nan Suhuai was impacted by a huge force, and his body flew backward!

“Mentor!” Chu Liuyue was shocked.

Almost at the same time, Shangguan Jing and Elder Meng’s forces were crushed easily by that hand!

Their attacks couldn’t stop it at all!

…

Everything that happened in midair caused all the spectators in the academy to be taken aback. Besides the students, even many experienced elders were shocked. No wonder… It’s no wonder Ling Xiao Academy has guarded Million Wine Mountain meticulously and didn’t allow for any mistakes. It turns out that something so terrifying was hidden underneath! 

That hand turned and grabbed the air, going for Rong Xiu and Chu Liuyue.

From the duo’s angle, they could see the blood circulating in the totem in the middle of that palm!

Rong Xiu was alerted and retreated again!

But at this moment, force suddenly came from that hand! Instantly, it felt like a thunderstorm was approaching!

Tremendous horrifying suppression came over!

The water droplet in Chu Liuyue’s body suddenly spun rapidly. Faintly, it was about to be forcefully taken by that hand!

Rong Xiu held her even more tightly, and his clothes blew with the wind. But at this point, his cultivation level was only that of a true G.o.d. How could he fight with that hand?

Countless wounds rapidly appeared on him. Fresh red blood silently spread across his white robe!
