Heirs of the Seven Swords of the Qin Dynasty

Chapter 1176 The protagonist returns ing
  Gao Jianli and others looked solemnly at the two figures intertwined in the center of the hall. The cold sword light flashed in their eyes, but the figures of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang could only capture some fragments.

But everyone can see an obvious fact - Gai Nie is always avoiding and never draws his sword.

Facing Wei Zhuang's murderous attack, all Gai Nie's actions were inseparable from the two words of dodging and blocking, but he never took the initiative to attack with his sword.

This is obviously abnormal for the best swordsman in the world.

Gao Jianli's slender eyebrows were almost bunched up, and he murmured in a low voice, "Gai Nie...why haven't you drawn your sword yet?"

He couldn't understand the situation.

There is no doubt that Wei Zhuang is no longer holding back, but Gai Nie is always giving in... This is not a swordsman's way of facing an enemy, especially one who bears the reputation of being the best swordsman in the world.

Facing Wei Zhuang's violent attack like a gust of wind and rain, even Ge Nie couldn't hold on for long!
  In fact, now they can already see that Gai Nie is at a disadvantage - the rhythm of the battle has completely fallen into Wei Zhuang's hands.

In a duel between two peerless masters, this can be regarded as a disadvantage that can determine success or failure.

Coupled with Gai Nie's injuries...

Gao Jianli tried his best to keep his expression as normal as possible, but he was already anxious inside.

More importantly, he could only watch and not interfere.

When both Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang decided not to hold back, they no longer had to worry about the disappointing situation of others interfering in the situation.

Because no one can get involved in the confrontation between the two of them - to be precise, there is no such person in the central hall at this time. There may be some in the agency city, but the chance of interfering is very low.

Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang's unreserved outpouring of power and meticulous Qi control kept most of the released energy within a small area around their bodies.

The remaining free sword energy that escaped almost filled most of the central hall, maintaining a fragile balance that would be partially broken from time to time, and maintaining peace for the time being.

In this case, even if Gao Jianli and others were slightly closer to the battlefield where the two were fighting, they would immediately encounter the indiscriminate baptism of discrete sword energy from both sides.

And even if they can withstand the baptism of sword energy from the outside, it is still not enough for them to forcibly intervene in the battle between Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang.

At this time, Gai Nie Weizhuang was like venting his power in a small closed area. Once an outsider tried to penetrate, it would destroy the seal of this area, and Gai Nie Weizhuang suppressed the momentum and energy in a small area as much as possible. The force will instantly explode along the opened crack.

Not only will the loose energy be released towards the disruptor, but even the attacks of Gai Nie and Wei Zhuang will follow them unconsciously - this kind of passive forced following, even Gai Nie cannot immediately twist.

Although subtle control is an essential trait of a master, no one can leave such a large margin to prevent accidental injuries without holding back any hand and exerting all their strength.

Even Gu Xun can't do it - of course, there aren't many cases where he takes action with all his strength.

All in all, the person who intervenes is equivalent to facing the full attack of the two masters vertically and horizontally in a very short period of time.

Even if it is only for a very short period of time, even if Gai Nie is currently on the defensive, it is still a fatal situation for most people - even top experts like Gao Jianli Xuenu.

If someone with the strength of Big Iron Hammer can't even reach the core of the battle, he will be shattered by the sword energy on the periphery.

………………

At the outer entrance of the mountain behind Guancheng City.

"Huh...huh..." Tianming slapped his calf and took a few breaths, looking a little tired, "I didn't expect... I didn't expect that we didn't run very far." He and Tianming expected that they might have to explore in the mountains. It was different to find the way back after half a day. After they left the stone forest, they quickly determined the approximate location of the machine city because it was really not far away.

After finding the right direction, there is no clear road in the forest. Anyway, just go if you can, and go around if you can't.

Their unlucky energy seemed to have been exhausted after they encountered various accidents when entering the forbidden area. Their luck was quite good at this moment. They did not encounter any steep slopes that could not be climbed or pits that could not be crossed along the way. It was very easy. He walked back to an entrance in the mountain behind the city.

This place has obviously experienced an attack by the Qin army. There are many Mohist disciples and a small number of imperial soldiers lying on the ground.

Among those Mohist disciples, some were dead, while others were just in a state of poisoning, paralysis and coma.

At this time, Qianlong shuttled back and forth in front of various Mohist disciples to confirm their status.

"Most people are still poisoned and lose their ability to move. Unfortunately, I don't know how to detoxify... so I have to leave it alone for the time being." After checking about a dozen people, Chitaki stopped what he was doing and turned to explain to his two friends. He said, "It should be fine in a short time."

Shao Yu clenched the formation-breaking Overlord Spear in his hand and smashed it on the ground.

clang!
  "In that case, let's go back to the city first. Only when the crisis in the city is resolved can they receive treatment."

Tian Ming straightened up and immediately nodded in agreement, without even considering what role their three children could play in solving this crisis.

"Yes, yes, let's go quickly."

"Let's go find uncle!"

Chitaki had no objection to this, just let the other two do what they wanted, she didn't care.

However, Shao Yu has no intention of going to Gai Nie:

"You two go find Mr. Guy and the others. I'll go see if there are any survivors and see how our family members are doing."

"Uh..." Qianlong, who originally had no objections, immediately hesitated when he heard that Shaoyu wanted to divide his troops. "Shaoyu, it's too dangerous for you to be alone. After all, there are not many soldiers in the city now."

If the three of them stayed together, Qianlong could be sure that Qin's soldiers would not be able to harm them, and would only catch them at most.

But if Shaoyu acts alone, Qiantaki is not sure whether others are safe enough.

"Hehe! It's okay!" Shaoyu didn't take it seriously. He raised his hand and waved his new weapon casually, and said with a proud smile, "With this handy weapon, ordinary soldiers pose no threat to me. It's too great." If you want to run away if you have more, it’s absolutely fine.”

Tianming first glanced at this strange weapon that he had never had time to take a closer look at... Oh, why does it feel longer?

Shaking his head, Tianming shook off what he thought was an illusion and asked instead, "Are you sure?"

"Don't get caught then. Chitaki and I will have to rescue you."

"Hey!" Shao Yu rolled his eyes at him and curled his lips, "Don't worry, I'm not you, I won't make fun of you."

After saying that, Shaoyu glanced at Tianming and Qianlong, "On the contrary, it's you two. I'm worried that something will happen without my protection!"
