Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1151 The Juggernaut is about to be weakened
  The shark teeth flew out of his hands, and Wei Zhuang was also retreating under Gai Nie's deadly chain swords. He stumbled back a few steps, looking quite shaky.

However, it was these few steps back that completely failed Gai Nie's plan.

Under the breathless gaze of Gao Jianli and others, Wei Zhuang took a few steps back, followed the trend with a neat iron bridge, and fell down with his upper torso completely parallel to the ground. He grabbed it just right with his right hand. He grabbed the hilt of the shark-tooth sword that was about to fly away and regained his weapon.

Then, without stopping, he continued to lower his waist and turned backwards with his left hand on the ground. While showing off his eye-catching large flower pants, he narrowly avoided Ganie's pursuit after he landed in time.

At this point, the crisis of losing the Shark Tooth Sword was perfectly resolved by Wei Zhuang, and the expectations in the eyes of Gao Jianli and others could not help but turn into a ray of regret.

After Gai Nie failed to succeed with the last sword, he did not pursue relentlessly. Instead, he directly drew back his sword and distanced himself from Wei Zhuang.

Wei Zhuang seemed to have expected that it was Gai Nie's last sword. After dodging, he slowly stood up straight without any hurry, waved his shark teeth, and turned his eyes towards his senior brother.

The brothers stood looking at each other, one with an expressionless face and the other with a smile on his lips.

After all, Wei Zhuang today is not the same person he was when he first entered Ghost Valley.

This time, Gai Nie still created an opportunity by himself, but he was not able to decide the outcome in one fell swoop like he did back then.

Even... he suffered a loss.

"Thinking too much will not make you stronger." Wei Zhuang's tone was mixed with a hint of sarcasm, and his eyes playfully commented, "Sword, the most important thing to stay away from is feelings!"

These two sentences also showed that he knew what Gai Nie had planned from a long time ago.

Hearing this, Gai Nie said nothing, but glanced sideways at his left upper arm, and saw a faint trace of bright red blood seeping out from the off-white sleeve.

Just now, in order to gain the last chance, Ge Nie still paid a price.

It's not serious, but it undoubtedly means that in this first round of confrontation, he was the first to miss a move.

Now Gai Nie is already at a disadvantage.

However, Gai Nie's expression did not fluctuate at all, as calm as the thin clouds in the sky.

He didn't completely agree with Wei Zhuang's words, but there was one point - a swordsman shouldn't make too many calculations at a time like this.

After this move, Gai Nie recognized it and tried again.

If your plan for a quick victory fails, then let's get serious... let's fight for a round.

Speaking of which, he has been avoiding this battle for many years!
  Although Gai Nie's state of mind was not revealed on his expression at all, Wei Zhuang seemed to see clearly, and the smile at the corner of his mouth became more and more wanton.

Good, you finally don’t plan to run away any more!

Just when the atmosphere between the two of them was filled with tension again, another uninvited guest broke into the entrance of the hall.

I saw a small figure running toward the hall in the shadows of the passage with heavy steps, successfully relying on the sound of footsteps to get the head start.

step... step... step...

After a few breaths, the dawn came into the eyes of everyone who cast their gaze at the entrance.

This height is basically only one of the three small ones. Everyone who had a voice to warn in advance was not surprised, at most a little confused.

Why did this child come here alone?

But now is obviously not the time to focus on this issue.

After Tianming rushed into the hall, holding a narrow dagger not much longer than a dagger, he panted and observed the situation in the hall. After discovering that Gai Nie was confronting Wei Zhuang, his eyes jumped and he shouted He said, "Uncle, are you okay!?" Shouting, others also rushed towards Genie.

After getting closer, he probably saw the blood on Gai Nie's left arm, and asked even more worriedly, "Uncle, are you okay!?"

Then, without waiting for Gai Nie to respond, he directly held the small dagger, stood in front of Gai Nie, and shouted at Wei Zhuang:
  "Hmph! You bad guy!"

"I will never allow you to hurt uncle!"

Seeing Tian Ming's overestimating his ability to commit suicide, Gai Nie felt a little strange, but thinking about his usual recklessness, he felt it was understandable.

After the two phases were reconciled, Gai Nie put aside his strange thoughts and called him, "Tianming!"

There were no additional words, but the slightly heavy tone of the name was enough to express what Gai Nie meant - hide behind.

Tianming obviously understood what Gai Nie meant, but he had no intention of obeying him. He responded without looking back, "Uncle, don't worry, I will definitely protect you."

Wei Zhuang, who was opposite him, looked at this absurd scene and immediately felt a strange feeling similar to that of Gai Nie. However, he also knew a little about Tian Ming, but not much.

As for Tianming, if you don’t know much about him, the most profound impression will undoubtedly be one word - reckless!
  It seems understandable that a hot-headed little boy would do such outrageous and stupid things.

After Wei Zhuang, who had a tacit understanding with his senior brother, figured everything out, he raised the corner of his mouth in a mocking arc and said in a playful tone, "Senior brother, it seems you have found a good follower!"

The tone of his words made him deserve as much beating as he deserved.

Gai Nie ignored his junior brother who was showing off his presence crazily, put his hand on Tianming's shoulder, and asked sincerely, "Tianming, do you believe me?"

Tianming turned his head and replied without hesitation, "Believe it!"

"Then stand behind me."

Tianming looked at Wei Zhuang and then at Gai Nie. After hesitating for a moment, he obediently moved behind Gai Nie.

However, as he passed by Gai Nie and turned back, Tianming lowered his face with a dark smile.

………………

In the secret room of Mo Core, after Master Ban heard Big Iron Hammer saying that Tianming appeared in the hall, he began to lower his head and meditate, and kept muttering:

"Impossible...impossible!"

Sledgehammer listened to his upset chatter and asked, "What are you mumbling about? What is impossible?"

"Why does Tianming appear in the hall?" Master Ban raised his head and replied with doubts on his face, "He can't appear here!"

"What do you mean?" Sledgehammer was confused.

Master Ban explained in an ironic tone, "Although they will basically be able to leave the forbidden area tomorrow after passing the level of chivalry and kingship, in fact there is still a long way to go before the exit!"

"It hasn't been too long since the mechanism of Xia Dao Wangdao stopped. Tianming and the others didn't encounter any other accidents along the way and successfully escaped, but they didn't have time to get here!"

"Not to mention that Qin soldiers will inevitably intercept us along the way."

"Then...then..." After listening to Big Iron Hammer, he probably understood what Master Ban meant. He scratched his head and made a guess based on his limited wisdom, "Maybe Tianming did not enter the forbidden area, and only Shao Yu and Chitaki?"
