“Whoosh!”
Jin Xuzi did not dare to be careless. With a flip of his right hand, he unleashed a sword aura that tore through the clouds, charging toward the enemy!
"Rumble—"
In the moment when the two sword auras collided, a wave of intense residual force surged, sweeping across the sky for tens of thousands of miles.
The sword aura in the clouds surged forward to meet its opponent!
“Boom—”
The exhausted Yuwen Jinglun and Jin Xuzi were sent flying through the air.
“Yuwen Jinglun, die!” Jin Xuzi spat out a mouthful of blood and charged toward Yuwen Jinglun in mid-air!
Just as he appeared a hundred feet in front of Yuwen Jinglun, Wei Quan, the vice commander of the Heavenly Punishment Organization, suddenly materialized from behind Yuwen Jinglun, his body surging with a deathly aura, enveloping Jin Xuzi like a cloud of darkness!
Previously, during the duel between Yuwen Jinglun and Jin Xuzi, Wei Quan had activated the Invisibility Talisman and secretly followed behind Yuwen Jinglun, ready to strike at any moment!
As Jin Xuzi hastily abandoned his pursuit of Yuwen Jinglun, Wei Quan had already swung his sword horizontally, aiming for Jin Xuzi's waist!
Wei Quan chose to strike Jin Xuzi’s waist instead of his neck, showcasing his cleverness. He understood that even if he ambushed Jin Xuzi while he was heavily injured, he might not succeed.
In a duel among masters, a slight miscalculation could lead to disastrous consequences. Wei Quan knew that the area of Jin Xuzi's neck was relatively small, whereas his waist was several times larger. If he aimed for the neck, Jin Xuzi could easily evade, but if he aimed for the waist, the outcome could be drastically different!
And indeed, it turned out to be the case!
“Ah... you dare to ambush the patriarch while watching from the sidelines, you shameless scoundrels!”
Jin Xuzi let out a desperate scream. Although he had dodged the fate of being split in half by a sword, his abdomen was slashed open with a wound deep enough to expose his internal organs!
The wound extended from the left side of his abdomen to the right, larger than a typical disembowelment!
“Whoosh!”
“Killing a despicable and shameless traitor like you, this vice commander is entirely justified!” Wei Quan’s gaze was fierce as he closed in and thrust his sword at Jin Xuzi's throat!
At the same time, Wei Quan waved his left hand, sending sharp Flying Needles imbued with death attributes shooting toward Jin Xuzi's chest!
Jin Xuzi realized it was impossible to dodge them all, so he steeled himself and allowed dozens of Flying Needles to pierce his chest. In a desperate twist of his head, he managed to evade Wei Quan's lethal sword strike, but the incoming Flying Sword pierced through the left side of his neck!
“Die, you scoundrel!” Blood sprayed from Jin Xuzi's neck, and he forcefully thrust his chest forward. The dozens of Flying Needles that had entered his body burst forth, propelled by the strings of blood towards the close-range Wei Quan!
“Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh—”
Wei Quan was caught off guard and could not evade in time. In the next instant, dozens of Flying Needles pierced through his chest, leaving trails of fine blood as they exited from his back!
One of the Flying Needles even pierced through Wei Quan’s heart!
“Pfft—”
Wei Quan spat a mouthful of blood all over Jin Xuzi's face. Immediately, he felt the pressure in his chest, his vision darkening, and he sensed he was on the verge of falling into the void.
Wei Quan was in despair! He knew that the Flying Needle that pierced his heart did not sever his life source, so he wasn't dead yet!
But at this moment, he had no strength left to counter Jin Xuzi, who was right in front of him!
“Even an ambush can’t kill a mere ant like you! Die!” Just as Jin Xuzi was about to strike Wei Quan down, Tan Yun appeared behind him with red eyes, suddenly reaching out with a giant hand towards Jin Xuzi!
Jin Xuzi was furious!
At this moment, no one could understand the burning anger within Jin Xuzi!
