Chapter 443: One Versus Two!
These words were not spoken by the Primordial Guards, but were instead shouted in unison by the cultivators in the Primordial Ruins.
Initially incredulous at the sight of the young pair, the crowd quickly erupted into furious anger!
In the Primordial Ruins, the Three Immortals were the faith of all beings, and no one could defy the will of the Three Immortals, let alone collude with demons or devils!
"This is an intolerable mistake for the common people of the Primordial Ruins!"
"We earnestly request that these two arrogant children be executed swiftly to rectify the eternal customs of the human race!"
BOOM! The entrance to the Liu Manor immediately descended into chaos, with everyone raising their arms in rage. The veins in their bloodshot eyes writhed like worms, crawling and moving about.
Faced with the fury of the masses, Tian Chen and Jian Xing would not stand idly by!
Tian Chen stepped forward, declaring solemnly and thunderously, "You two, by openly obstructing the enforcement of the Heavenly Order Temple and aiding the escape of devil colluders, have committed the crime of defying the Three Immortals. This crime, witnessed by the masses, cannot be forgiven! Even if you possess talents that defy the heavens, you cannot escape punishment!"
Jian Xing sneered coldly, looking disdainfully at Lian Xi, "Especially you, who enjoyed the highest resources of the Primordial Ruins, personally named an Immortal by the Three Immortals and granted a noble status, yet you committed such a grave mistake, truly disappointing all beings under heaven!"
"Please capture this lowlife immediately!"
Many cultivators of the Primordial Ruins shouted angrily, their hatred as if Lian Xi had slain their own parents and children.
"Kill!" Their roars eventually converged into a single word, oppressively bearing down on Lian Xi\'s frail shoulders.
In their eyes, the blood-vein-like Gu writhed around their pupils, excited as if celebrating the new year.
Tian Chen and Jian Xing exchanged glances, no longer speaking, and pounced towards Lian Xi from left and right!
Seeing it was these two, the people in white robes held back for the moment.
The situation at this moment might have worried these white-robed individuals greatly!
BOOM!
Tian Chen\'s light gold armor shone brightly, making him appear like a golden war god on the battlefield!In his hand appeared a battle flag, which fluttered in the wind, burning with a fire as bright as the stars. The flagpole, resembling a spear or lance, was wrapped in star fire like a dragon, its majesty astounding!
This was a Mid Yang grade treasure, far surpassing the Binding God Cord, known as the Mystic Starfire Flag.
It was rumored that Tian Chen, wielding the Mystic Starfire Flag and leading tens of thousands of Primordial Guards, had rescued millions of commoners, earning widespread admiration and faith across the myriad worlds for his meritorious deeds.
BOOM! As the battle flag waved, it was as though thousands of troops were charging forth, unleashing thunderous roars of wind and thunder, showcasing the formidable strength of a distinguished descendant from the Sky Source Ruins!
He was a Yin Immortal! One could feel that the power emanating from Tian Chen surpassed that of the Five Decays Realm! He already possessed hundreds of years of longevity, and his future was boundlessly promising, making him incomparable to Tian Zhixiu.
Beside Tian Chen, Jian Xing suddenly wielded a black Sword Soul in his hand!
HUM! This black Sword Soul, akin to a dark starry sky, featured a dazzling pentagonal star at its hilt. It illuminated the dark expanse, its radiance like golden threads, spreading across the entire sword. The sword was layered with over 800,000 layers of Sword Aura, and it boasted seven top-tier Sword Rings!
"Upper Yang grade, Emperor Star Sword Soul, the sword of the great emperor star. In terms of Sword Soul quality, this is the highest between heaven and earth!" the masses exclaimed in awe.
Of course, their definition of the highest did not include the Human Zenith Immortal.
The Human Zenith Sword Immortal, the progenitor of swordsmanship, where could his descendants compare?
Wielding the Emperor Star Sword Soul, Jian Xing was like a black and gold dragon, standing shoulder to shoulder with Tian Chen, one gold and one black, their might shaking the heavens, causing an uproar of excited shouts from the crowd!
They had never clashed with Lian Xi before! But, people had always compared them with Lian Xi...
Even though Lian Xi was universally recognized for her higher talent, they were all over five years older than her! In terms of combat power, not many believed Lian Xi could be stronger than them! One was a Martial Cultivator, the other a Sword Cultivator!
Lian Xi, with indignation in her heart, stared intently at the two, her pretty face fierce, a king character appeared on her smooth forehead!
With a low growl, akin to a tiger\'s roar, she silenced the surrounding curses and discussions. That domineering momentum, completely opposite to her usual demeanor, burst forth!
BOOM! She stomped on the ground, and the stone slabs forged from gold and stone materials beneath her shattered, propelling towards the two men.
BOOM BOOM! A hammer and an axe appeared in her delicate hands!
On the giant axe, nine white thunderbolts twined around it, with thunderous light running through the body, and the axe\'s blade gleamed sharply!
And on the heavy hammer, with hundreds of spikes, fierce white flames blazed, shining as bright as the scorching sun, warping the surrounding space of the world.
Even the golden immortal mist began to sizzle and smoke!
These two magic treasures, naturally not inferior to Tian Chen\'s Mystic Starfire Flag, were both Mid Yang grade artifacts—one being the Nine Heavens Thunder Axe, and the other the Sun Burning Heavy Hammer. Both were the inheritance treasures of some historically violent and burly Martial Immortals from the Primordial Academy!
And now, they both belonged to Lian Xi, the historically most delicate owner.
When Lian Xi made her move, her seemingly frail body burst forth with the explosive power of a mountainous sea beast, making her ferocity send shivers down one\'s spine!
Her way of fighting was straightforward and forceful, with no trace of finesse!
Yun Xiao played the sword with finesse enough to embroider, but she was the complete opposite. Wielding the heavy hammer and giant axe, she struck the ground, her delicate body launching forward with thunder and flames to smash and slash directly at her opponent\'s forehead!
"So fierce?" Tian Chen, similar to Lian Xi, appeared gentle and scholarly but was in reality a formidable Martial Cultivator, extremely proficient in close combat.
BOOM! He frowned, swinging the Mystic Starfire Flag in his hand, thrusting it forward like a dragon piercing through, its tip swirling the flag into a hundred-yard diameter vortex of star fire, aiming to envelop Lian Xi!
Within this storm of star fire, Lian Xi cast a cold glance at him. Despite her heavy weapons, her speed was not diminished. The Sun Burning Heavy Hammer in her right hand crashed down like a falling sun, directly blocking the tip of the Mystic Starfire Flag!
Yun Xiao excelled in leveraging force, while Lian Xi purely used strength to break cunning. The heavy hammer, like a fiery golden mountain, smashed against Tian Chen\'s spear tip. The collision sparked glaring fireflies!
BOOM! A loud blast ensued, and the Mystic Starfire Flag seemed to strike an iron wall, with immense force pressing down and white flames swallowing the star fire vortex!
CRACK! CRACK! CRACK! Tian Chen\'s Mystic Starfire Flag was bent by the pressure!
"Huh?" Tian Chen\'s face changed.
BOOM! The bent Mystic Starfire Flag rebounded with great force, sending Tian Chen flying, his spear slipping from his grasp. The shock split his palm, and the spear\'s butt pressed against his chest armor, cracking it open!
Tian Chen screamed in pain as he flew backward into the crowd, knocking over a hundred people and spitting out a mouthful of blood. His ribs broke on the spot!
"Is this woman a behemoth?!" Tian Chen leaped up, his complexion slightly altered, his mind briefly blank.
He knew this girl was only 14 years old! Both being talented Martial Cultivators, he had always been compared to Lian Xi, and he harbored some disbelief regarding his own talents being inferior to hers.
He hadn\'t anticipated that a five-year age difference would result in his defeat with a single blow!
The moment he was struck, a gasp of shock rippled through the crowd!
Right after Lian Xi sent him flying with her hammer, she turned and brought down her Nine Heavens Thunder Axe with her left hand, striking directly at the Emperor Star Sword Soul lunged by Jian Xing!
The Sword Soul, with over 800,000 layers of Sword Aura and boasting seven demon magics, conjured a sea of swords. Yet, Lian Xi saw through its position with a glance. The Nine Heavens Thunder Axe, even faster than the Sun Burning Heavy Hammer, sliced down, and nine thunder dragons tore through the sky!
BOOM! The Emperor Star Sword Soul was cleaved by the axe, causing three of its seven Sword Rings to explode. Like Tian Chen, Jian Xing and his sword were sent flying!
Jian Xing fared even worse; his Emperor Star Sword Soul cracked, causing his eyes to fissure and he fell to the ground vomiting blood and screaming. His face turned deathly pale, and his bones convulsed with pain!
"Uh..." The crowd\'s eyes widened as they watched the once formidable twin stars, one rolling on the ground, the other tumbling into the crowd bleeding!
They had thought, even if unable to defeat Lian Xi, it would at least be an evenly matched battle that lasted several rounds.
Instead, the strongest twin stars together couldn\'t withstand even a single move from her!
They were utterly defeated on the spot, wailing like defeated dogs.
Many cultivators of the Primordial Ruins lifted their heads, looking at this violent girl wrapped in lightning and flames with trembling eyes.
Yun Xiao had been the center of attention these past days, indeed making many forget her mythical talent!
"To fight two against one and to overpower the twin stars so thoroughly, it must be said, if she does not err, does not fall into the path of devils, her future would be boundless!"
"What a pity! A real pity!"
Facing such talent, even if misguided, there were still those who felt regret.
But alas, even the most beautiful flower, once tainted, wouldn\'t be cherished by many.
"Lian Xi, return to the Primordial Academy." After brutally defeating the obstructing twin stars, those in white robes quickly reminded her.
Their brows were deeply furrowed. Not in blame towards Lian Xi, but because they all understood that this event, even defeating the twin stars, was futile.
No matter how exceptional the talent, once marked as an enemy, only a bloody path lay ahead.
And in such a short time, numerous descendants of the Three Immortals, strong ones, had already gathered around Tian Chen and Jian Xing. These seniors helped the two stars up, staring at Lian Xi with cold eyes.
Their numbers would only grow, making it harder for the over a thousand people of the Liu Family to escape.
Lian Xi knew all these truths well!
While people were still astonished by her strength, lamenting her fall, Lian Xi turned to Liu Yuan, Liu Yingying, and the others, gritting her teeth, "We need to leave now... or it will be too late..."
Everyone knew, from this moment on, everything had changed. Though things weren\'t great before, now, it was a public, in-front-of-all confrontation, and the charges were set.
Brainwashing by Gu, controlling the narrative, the Three Immortals here always represented the ultimate righteousness and compassion! To oppose them was to be unforgivably demonic.
"Lian Xi!" Just as the girl turned, Tian Chen, clutching his painfully wounded chest, called out her name with a cold expression and then said, "Look, what is this?"
With that, he produced a Bag of Holding!
