“Da Niu!!”

“Damn it!!”

Wen Mei and the child’s eyes flashed with disbelief.

The woman couldn’t help but exclaim when she saw what had just happened.

A blurred figure waved its hand, releasing a fierce surge of Primordial Energy.

Countless shattered fragments of long knives floated in mid-air, shooting towards the two like hidden weapons!

At the same time, Li Guanqi swung his sword backhand, striking the vine-like whip.

The originally soft and tough magical treasure whip was easily cut in half!

Wen Mei’s body suddenly shot backward, using the remaining half of the whip in her hand to block all the incoming fragments.

She turned her head and shouted to the person beside her, “Yu Heng, be careful!!”

The dwarf named Yu Heng was flipping two daggers in his hands, instantly shattering all the fragments one by one!!

Seeing the shadow in front of him, Ye Feng’s eyes flashed with wild joy, followed by a hint of guilt.

His body fell from the air, and Li Guanqi kicked him dozens of feet away until he hung on a tree branch.

The apology he had just thought of was stuck in his throat, and Li Guanqi’s powerful kick almost knocked him unconscious.

Li Guanqi, with a black veil covering his face, slowly floated down from the sky.

Wen Mei and Yu Heng stood in a pincer formation at his left front and right front.

Yu Heng held his daggers, one upright and one reversed.

Primordial Energy surged around him as he squinted at Li Guanqi, his childish voice slowly sounding.

“I knew my senses weren’t wrong back then! It really is two people together…”

“But… your ability to conceal your aura is impressive. I didn’t even notice you were this close!”

Li Guanqi sneered.

“Taking so long to kill him, wasn’t it just to lure me out?”

“But you really went all out, sacrificing a Golden Elixir Realm early peak companion just to lure me.”

“Perhaps he never thought, even in death, that you sent him up here for me to kill, did he?”

Yu Heng was momentarily stunned.

The woman behind him couldn’t believe what she heard.

But when she saw the faint smile on Yu Heng’s face, she understood.

The man in front of her was telling the truth.

The child-like Yu Heng looked at Li Guanqi with interest.

Flipping the daggers in his hands, he actually extended an invitation.

“Fellow Daoist, why not consider joining us?”

“With your strength, my command, and Mei’er’s assistance.”

“Getting rich would be a piece of cake!”

A mocking smile appeared under the black veil.

He didn’t expect that in this situation, the other party would think of inviting him to join.

But Li Guanqi didn’t intend to waste any more time.

The sword in his hand glowed with a crimson light, his pure white eyes filled with icy killing intent.

“We walk different paths and cannot make plans together.”

“If you hadn’t sought death and come to me, nothing would have happened.”

“But… since you insist on seeking death, I’ll grant your wish.”

As his words fell, Li Guanqi’s figure turned into a stream of light, instantly darting towards the two!!

Yu Heng’s face twisted in a grimace, his eyes flashing with killing intent as he coldly snorted.

“Hmph! Arrogant!”

“Mei’er! Kill him!!”

Boom!!

As he spoke, a powerful pressure erupted from Yu Heng’s body, the pressure of a Golden Elixir Realm early peak pressing down on Li Guanqi!

The woman named Wen Mei also activated her Primordial Energy, her body glowing with a faint green light.

The whip that had been cut in half instantly restored itself!

Yu Heng gripped his daggers tightly, advancing towards Li Guanqi instead of retreating!!

Li Guanqi had anticipated this; anyone who used daggers would be strong in close combat!

Hearing the sharp whistling of the wind, Li Guanqi coldly smiled, his Divine Sense spreading out like a tidal wave!!

A powerful spiritual force enveloped an area of thirty feet around him!!

In an instant, Li Guanqi moved like a fish, weaving through the whip shadows.

No matter how the woman changed her stance or increased her speed, Li Guanqi could always handle it with ease.

The whip shadows filled the sky, but each one barely missed him, none striking his body!

Seeing this, Wen Mei’s heart was filled with waves of shock!

Yu Heng, too, was filled with caution, pulling out two Spirit Talismans and sticking them on himself.

In an instant, his speed increased dramatically!!

His figure turned into a blurred shadow, rushing towards Li Guanqi.

Li Guanqi coldly smiled, his left hand swinging the sword in an instant!!

Clang! Clang! Clang!!

Clang! Clang!!

In an instant, sparks flew between the two!!

The two daggers, gleaming with cold light, were not ordinary items; they could clash with the Red Lotus Sword for dozens of moves without breaking!

Li Guanqi was somewhat surprised; he was using sixty percent of his strength, yet the other party could keep up with his sword speed.

This dual-wielding dagger user was indeed troublesome.

“Nothing more.”

But as soon as Yu Heng touched the sword light, his face changed dramatically!!

In just a few dozen exchanges, his hands were already bleeding!!

The opponent’s sword was the fastest and fiercest he had ever seen!

At this moment, he wanted to retreat, feeling that the two of them couldn’t kill the other party!

But just as he transmitted this thought to Wen Mei, the opponent’s sword speed increased again!!

Yu Heng panicked, his body already covered in several deep wounds.

Li Guanqi clearly felt the woman’s whip speed up behind him!

With killing intent surging in his heart, Li Guanqi formed a hand seal and dashed towards the woman.

Boom!!

In the sky, dark clouds gathered, and in an instant, there was lightning and thunder.

Yu Heng looked up at the sky, his face extremely grim, his throat moving as he murmured.

“Spirit Spell… Thunder Technique!!”

Boom! Boom!!

In an instant, two thunder spears, each about ten feet long, shot out from the clouds!!

Yu Heng used all his strength to move several feet sideways in an instant!!

But the last thunder spear still pierced through his body, pinning him to the ground!

Boom!! Bang!!

A terrifying explosion sounded, and the thunder spear exploded after piercing through Yu Heng’s body!

Li Guanqi, using his movement technique, weaved through the whip shadows, his sword flashing with a crimson light!

In the midst of the whip shadows, his sword turned into countless sword lights, shredding the whip into countless pieces, and then pierced through the woman’s chest.

Blood gushed from the woman’s mouth, her eyes filled with disbelief as she looked at the young man who had removed his black veil.

“The Great Xia… Sword Sect… Li… Guanqi…”

Thud!

The woman died, her body collapsing weakly to the ground.

Dozens of feet away, as the dust settled.

Only a half-destroyed corpse remained on the ground.
