The Beacon of Kyushu

Yun Zixiao had long been ingrained with the word "forbearance" in his bones in order to avenge his blood feud. Even if he had to wait for a thousand years, he would not act rashly when the time was not right. In contrast, Tianjie's temper was somewhat more explosive. Seeing that Yun Zixiao had no flaws, he had no choice but to thrust his sword forward, trying to force Yun Zixiao to reveal a flaw with his fast sword.

All martial arts in the world have flaws. No matter how fast the movements are or how clever the tricks are, as long as the opponent is strong enough, he can still seize the best opportunity to attack before the flaws completely disappear. At this moment, Tianjie took the lead and seemed to have the upper hand, but he also revealed his flaws first.

Yun Zixiao smiled coldly, and at the same time thrust out a colder and sharper sword, directly hitting Tiansha's forehead. Tiansha's movements might not be the fastest, but there were definitely not many people in the world who were faster than him, and Yun Zixiao was one of them.

The Liuyun Sword flashed slightly in the air, and after the dazzling sword light, the sword tip had reached Tiansha. Tiansha quickly dodged sideways, then took a step forward and stabbed Yun Zixiao's chest with the long sword. Yun Zixiao's chest was wide open at this time. If he was stabbed by Tiansha, he would definitely die on the spot, so he had to swing his sword to block.

Yin Snake and Lone Wolf were both killed by Yun Zixiao's sword. Although Tiansha didn't defeat him, he was able to force him to swing his sword to block, which was not easy. Most assassins were cold-blooded, but they couldn't help but feel excited when they saw the duel between two powerful masters.

Tiansha had heard that the Liuyun Sword was a rare divine weapon, so he naturally did not dare to fight it head-on. He had to withdraw his sword suddenly when the two swords were about to clash. When Yun Zixiao saw him withdraw his sword, his eyes showed a little admiration, "Tiansha, since I started learning swordsmanship, you are the second person who can make me use the second sword!"

"The second one?" Tiansha seemed a little curious and asked, "Who is the first one?"

Yun Zixiao said bitterly: "The first one? It's Wan Jianfeng, whom I want to kill!"

Tiansha asked, "Then how many swords did you use to defeat him?"

Yun Zixiao shook his head and said, "I can't defeat him."

Tiansha was shocked and said in disbelief: "What! There is such a strong beggar in the world, why have we never heard of him? No, I seem to have heard of him, or to be more precise, one of his friends."

Yun Zixiao asked, "Are you talking about Murong Yunyao?"

Tiansha nodded and said, "That's right. Although I haven't heard of how great Wan Jianfeng's martial arts are, Murong Yunyao seems to have mastered many superior martial arts. Not only is he proficient in Shaolin, Zhengyi and other righteous martial arts, he has also dabbled in the swordsmanship of the Nine Netherworld Ghost Realm. He can be said to be the second ancient genius after Murong Yanyun."

Yun Zixiao nodded silently, "Yes. But Murong Yunyao's whereabouts are unknown now, and she is not with Wan Jianfeng, so there is no need to worry about this person on this mission."

Tiansha shook his head and said, "Yun Zixiao, you seem to have forgotten one very important thing. That is, we in Lihentian have not accepted your commission yet, and will never accept it, so don't daydream!"

Yun Zixiao said disapprovingly: "It is not advisable to dream in the daytime, but it is late at night now, so I am not dreaming! I still say that you have to accept this business tonight, whether you accept it or not. Unless all 36 people die under my sword, I will never give up!"

Tiansha said nothing more, and swung his sword again, brazenly stabbing at Yun Zixiao's heart. Yun Zixiao did not dodge this time, but waved his sleeves and touched the sword in Tiansha's hand. Tiansha was knowledgeable and had naturally heard of the invisible Liuyun sleeves that hurt the enemy. He turned his sword suddenly and stabbed Yun Zixiao's left rib.

Yun Zixiao had never met a master who could see through his moves. Even Feng Jiutian, who fought hard in Hongshaling and slaughtered Kunlun, had never met such an opponent. He was slightly startled. Tiansha took advantage of Yun Zixiao's daze and thrust the long sword in his hand at the vital point with lightning speed. How could Yun Zixiao let Tiansha kill him? He stepped back with his toes to accumulate strength. He retreated to a distance of ten feet away and dodged Tiansha's sword with ease. Then, he rushed forward and the Liuyun Sword turned into a white light, shining like a star.

If Tiansha had a precious sword in his hand, he would have thought that with his martial arts, he would have been able to block it calmly. However, his sword was just an ordinary iron sword, and if it came into contact with Liuyun Sword, it would have broken into two pieces. He had to use all his strength to dodge to the side in a very embarrassing way, and only then could he barely avoid this move.

Yun Zixiao raised two fingers with his left hand and said, "Very good, you avoided my second sword. If you can avoid one more sword, I will give you all the flying money I brought with me."

Tiansha pretended to be calm and sneered, "Yun Zixiao, today, neither your money nor your head can be taken away! If you have any last words, it's best to explain them as soon as possible, otherwise it will be too late to regret."

"The third sword hasn't come out yet, it's too early to say anything now!" Yun Zixiao said as the third sword came out suddenly. This sword was even faster than the previous two swords, and it seemed that there was not even an afterimage, and it pierced Tiansha's throat.

Tiansha was able to handle it well just now, but facing this sword, he could not only dodge it, but he couldn't even see it clearly. His instinct told him that he had to dodge it at this moment, otherwise he would die, but his legs were a step slower. He watched Yun Zixiao's sword pierce his throat, and shouted unwillingly for the last time, "I... I don't accept it!" Then his body fell to the ground with a bang.

The thirty-two assassins in the field all cried out in surprise when they saw this. In their eyes, Tiansha's martial arts were truly unrivaled in the world. Even if he was still no match for Yun Zixiao, at most he would lose due to a mistake after a hundred moves, and there was no way he would die here. But Tiansha really died, died under Yun Zixiao's third sword. Even if the assassins had more resentment and doubts in their hearts, in the face of cold death, it all seemed worthless.

Yun Zixiao slowly drew his sword, and with a sharp flick of his wrist, drops of blood fell from the sword, splashing onto the dark, eerie bricks and stones, creating blood flowers. "Tiansha is dead, can I take over this business now?"

Tianjie, Tiannan, and Tianmie looked at each other, and almost at the same time drew out three long swords, attacking Yun Zixiao's three vital points. Their figures were as fast as ghosts, and the long swords in their hands were filled with murderous aura, wishing to chop Yun Zixiao into meat paste in the blink of an eye.

Killers are always cold-blooded, and they often remain indifferent even when their companions die tragically. Yun Zixiao grasped this characteristic of killers and dared to kill three people with a sword. Unexpectedly, this move attracted the siege of the three killers from the south, west and north, which was beyond his expectation.

But Yun Zixiao was an excellent swordsman after all, so how could he die so easily? When the strong wind brought by the long sword whistled and stung his skin, he immediately came to his senses, "Three of you, since you also want to assassinate me, you must be prepared to die!"

Yun Zixiao pretended to be calm, but his figure instantly passed through the gap that was too tight for him to move, like a floating white cloud, easily avoiding the combined attack of the three assassins. Then, he thrust his long sword diagonally, directly hitting Tiannan's throat.

Tian Nan saw that Yun Zixiao not only dodged the three people's long swords, but also drew his sword and stabbed him in the vitals. He quickly dodged to the side, and then the long sword stabbed Yun Zixiao's right rib. Seeing this, the other two people tacitly drew their swords and attacked Yun Zixiao again, not giving him a chance to breathe.

The three men attacked too quickly, leaving Yun Zixiao no chance to dodge. He had no choice but to leap up, his feet several feet off the ground, and only then was he able to dodge. But he was not willing to remain passive, and as his body fell, he thrust out his long sword, and as the sword light swirled, he stabbed out six or seven times in a row, each sword shining brightly and full of murderous intent.

Tiannan's martial arts were the weakest among the three, so at least half of the six or seven swords were aimed at him. Tiannan also had no precious blade in his hand, and his swordsmanship was not as swift and clever as Yun Zixiao's, so he dared not resist the Liuyun Sword that could cut gold and break jade, and could only retreat again and again.
