Holding the Sacred Sword, Qian Renxue's long, slender legs, clad in golden stockings and shoes, suddenly slammed into the ground. Her wings unfurled, and she hurtled towards Xiao Yan like a golden meteor.
Compared to Xiao Yan's understanding of swordsmanship, Qian Renxue's swordsmanship was truly inferior.
This was quite normal, as Douluo Soul Masters mostly relied on the Soul Skills granted by their Soul Rings.
Xiao Yan raised his hand, conjuring a longsword, and swung it to meet her attack. The tip of his sword met Qian Renxue's Sacred Sword precisely.
The sword tips collided, and Qian Renxue once again felt the power contained within Yan Xiao's longsword, being forced back three steps.
"After flying for so long, your soul power should be greatly depleted. How could you still have such strength?" Qian Renxue steadied herself, her body flashing with golden light. "And how come your sword is unaffected by the Sacred Flame?"
Xiao Yan's lips curled slightly. His Blue Silver Emperor Martial Soul now also possessed fire attributes, giving him extremely strong resistance to fire-attribute attacks.
With a light laugh, Xiao Yan's longsword replicated Qian Renxue's previous attack, aiming straight for her neck.
Knowing Yan Xiao's astonishing strength, Qian Renxue dared not clash with him. She dodged Yan Xiao's attack to the side while simultaneously swinging her sword at Xiao Yan.
However, Xiao Yan's sword seemed like an annoying fly, relentlessly pursuing her longsword.
The two swords clashed in mid-air like two long blue and gold snakes.
The constant collision of the swords produced clanging sounds and sparks flying.
After being entangled by Yan Xiao, Qian Renxue felt herself increasingly unable to keep up with Xiao Yan's pace.
Seizing an opening in Qian Renxue's defenses, Xiao Yan forcefully struck her wrist with the blade of his sword.
Startled, Qian Renxue dropped
the Sacred Sword. Taking two steps forward, Xiao Yan caught the fallen sword, then gripped it tightly against her neck, remarking, "Not bad aptitude, just lacking a good teacher." "
Don't be so smug!" Qian Renxue scoffed, her wings frantically absorbing energy from the domain, golden lightning flashing like tiny snakes around her.
Taking a deep breath, she exhaled sharply, unleashing a piercing and resonant roar.
At that moment, her eyes erupted with intense golden flames.
It was her sixth soul skill, the mental attack, Angel's Roar.
Xiao Yan's mental strength far surpassed Qian Renxue's; though her movements were subtle, they did not escape his notice.
With a blink of an eye, two beams of purple light shot out, easily deflecting Qian Renxue's attack.
"How did you do that?" Qian Renxue was somewhat pale.
Just now, she was very close to Yan Xiao and hadn't seen Xiao Yan release his martial soul or soul bone. What was that purple light?
"The little game is over. Now it's time for the main event." Sheathing his longsword, Xiao Yan, wielding the Divine Sword, came up behind Qian Renxue.
Looking at the rapidly approaching figures in the distance, Qian Renxue smiled and said, "My men are here. You won't have a good end for provoking the Heaven Dou Royal Family."
Xiao Yan completely ignored Qian Renxue's words and focused on the two pursuers.
One of them, a Title Douluo, was tall and thin, wielding a serpent spear about twelve feet long. The spearhead was curved, and the sharp point was forked like a snake's tongue. The spear was entirely bluish-purple.
Another Title Douluo was of medium build, neither too thin nor too fat, but his body swelled up like an inflated balloon, countless purple spikes sprouting from within and covering his surface.
His appearance was far more ferocious; even his hands had transformed into purple spikes, his entire body shrouded in this peculiar purple hue.
"Release him!" the Serpent Spear Douluo coldly ordered.
Xiao Yan smiled faintly, one hand on Qian Renxue's shoulder, the other holding Qian Renxue's Sacred Sword: "If you want to reclaim the Crown Princess, it all comes down to your strength."
Qian Renxue showed no intention of becoming a hostage: "Uncle She, this man's strength is around that of a Soul Saint, and he might possess two Soul Bones. Go ahead and attack!"
Receiving Qian Renxue's instruction, the Serpent Spear Douluo charged straight at Xiao Yan, his slightest movement creating a series of afterimages, giving him an ethereal and unpredictable aura. With a
flick of his spear, the Serpent Spear Douluo conjured nine beams of light, enveloping Xiao Yan.
With a flick of his wrist, Xiao Yan tossed the Sacred Sword into Qian Renxue's hand, grasped her wrist, and used a gentle force to make her grip the sword tightly.
Before Qian Renxue could react, Xiao Yan, holding her wrist, attacked the nine figures of light from the Serpent Spear Douluo.
The Serpent Spear Douluo snorted coldly; he didn't believe Xiao Yan could withstand nine attacks simultaneously. He immediately didn't hold back, bending his legs and suddenly accelerating, while the nine figures of light also increased in speed, simultaneously thrusting towards Xiao Yan.
Facing the nine attacks that seemed to be all real figures, Xiao Yan smiled faintly, holding Qian Renxue's wrist and instructing her to attack with her sword.
Recently, he had gained new insights into swordsmanship. Although it was only basic sword techniques, they flowed like water, attacking nine points in an instant, ultimately clashing with the Serpent Spear Douluo in close combat.
In Soul Master cultivation, the focus is on Martial Soul aptitude. To unleash powerful attacks, one relies on the Soul Ring skills. Xiao Yan, using Qian Renxue's Soul Skills and physical abilities, broke through the Serpent Spear Douluo's prized attack methods, truly putting both the Serpent Spear Douluo and the Porcupine Douluo on their guard.
This person's strength is far from ordinary; the young master's judgment was wrong.
The Porcupine Douluo, having spent many years with the Serpent Spear Douluo, naturally knew the power of that attack.
His second Soul Ring suddenly flashed, and purple spikes shot out from his body, attacking Xiao Yan from the side.
In a flash, Qian Renxue felt the force on her wrist increase, a surge of immense power erupting forth. Before she could even warn Uncle She, Yan Xiao had already knocked him back with a single sword strike.
Pulling Qian Renxue's arm to his side, Xiao Yan swung his Holy Sword, the sword sweeping away dozens of sharp, poisonous spikes like a whirlwind.
At this moment, the third spirit ring on the Serpent Spear Douluo's body flashed, and the purplish-blue spear in his hand shimmered with a greenish-blue light: "Third Spirit Skill, Nine Slashes of Shadow Rift!"
As the twelve-foot-long serpent spear was swung, streaks of greenish-blue light burst forth from it, carrying potent poison as they rushed towards Xiao Yan.
With his arm around Qian Renxue's slender waist, Xiao Yan gracefully dodged using his rising technique.
Despite carrying someone, Xiao Yan dealt with the tortoise-like attacks with ease.
"Sword One, Break!"
