Refining the Mountains and Rivers

Chapter 1739 – Wei Han’s Nemesis

One had to admit that Bull Dingtian was very accurate with his guess.

However, he had overlooked one point. Rourou was not the only one who was making plans at Sky Falling Mountain; Qin Yu was also there to lay the groundwork.

Qin Yu did not mind massacring that clan.

Right now, that True King’s connection to Sky Falling Mountain had been cut off.

The cultivators from that clan naturally did not have a way to receive warnings from him. Qin Yu could finally play out the grand act!

But there was still time and he could let the twenty-four people from that clan continue to unseal the Great Dao.

He would find White Iris and Sprout first.

Also, Qin Yu was very curious about that swordsman. What relationship did that man have with him? action

……

“Brother Wei, you should go first. I can’t run!” Sprout cried with a pale face. There was blood at the side of her lips.

The two had barely managed to shrug off danger. She had naively called for help.

In the end, the three Blackpool disciples had mercilessly struck them.

Although they had been forced back by Wei Han, he had also suffered heavy injuries. Their situation was worsening as they were chased by the cultivators.

Sprout knew that this was her fault and she was feeling very resentful of herself.

Why did these people dare to attack her? Were they not scared of being investigated by the sect if news leaked out?

Wei Han slashed forward, causing the cultivator that had ambushed him to be forced backward. He did not turn back and he maintained an imposing posture, “It is not related to you, these are the evils of mankind!”

He originally thought that his heart would be at ease after that incident many years ago. However, he met Sprout in Sky Falling Mountain. She appeared cold on the outside but she was very warm. He was fond of this lady whom others were not really fond of.

“Don’t worry, I will make sure to bring you out alive.”

Tears dripped down Sprout’s face.

Loud laughter suddenly rang, “In this faraway land, we meet again. Wei Han, I can’t believe it is you.”

Whoosh –

Whoosh –

Sharp sounds came through the air and three swordsmen arrived.

A powerful and sharp aura that made one’s heart tremble appeared. Surrounded by their attackers, they backed away with a fearful look.

One of the three swordsmen was laughing out loud and he looked at Wei Han with a mocking look.

“Zheng Chu!”

Wei Han shouted and the killing intent around his body immediately surged as invisible sword aura poured out and sliced the air into pieces. Memories that were sealed in the deepest part of his mind were reinvoked and his eyes turned red.

Opposite him, the three swordsmen frowned slightly but they quickly turned calm again.

He was powerful, but that was it. This was the pride and insight of disciples of elite sword families.

“Junior brother Zheng, do you know this man?”

Zheng Chu smiled lightly, “We have some grudges from a long time ago. His cultivation was stripped from him and he was kicked out of the sect. It is unexpected that he lived till this day.”

He smiled but his eyes were cold and killing intent formed in his heart.

A cripple actually had so much strength.

Just now, when Wei Han’s bloodshot eyes locked onto him, there was some fear in his heart.

The intuition of swordsmen was always accurate. This also meant that Wei Han was a threat to him.

A Wei Han like this should die!

“Pluck out the weeds and the spring wind will blow again. Junior brother Zheng, you can take this chance to get rid of the parasite now.” The man smiled, “I am willing to lend you a hand.”

“Thank you senior brother.” Zheng Chu raised his hand and a sword hum buzzed through the air, “Wei Han, let me see what tricks you have up your sleeve today!”

Wei Han roared and he pushed Sprout away violently, “You run!”

He was desperately protecting Sprout before, but when Zheng Chu appeared, the situation changed entirely.

He knew that he would not be able to escape today. If Sprout stayed by his side, she would be killed too.

Zheng Chu said, “Senior, I will kill Wei Han myself. Please take care of that lady.”

“Alright.”

That man raised his sword. Space started to shake from where his sharp sword sliced through. Despair filled Sprout’s eyes; she was already heavily injured and without Wei Han’s protection, she was not able to escape this blow.

“No!”

Wei Han yelled and he desperately pounced ahead. However, Zheng Chu blocked his way. Wearing a sinister smile he said, “Back then, I made you kneel on the ground as you watched me kill your teacher and junior sister. Now, I will make you watch personally as this woman dies.”

“Wei Han, I am destined to be the nemesis in your life. Don’t bother trying to shake me off!”

“I will kill you!”

Wei Han shouted and slashed his sword forward. The sword in Zheng Chu’s hand collided with his heavily.

The battle between two strong swordsmen who were fighting at full force created a lot of terrifying sword aura that destroyed the earth instantly. However, Wei Han’s sword could not kill Zheng Chu and nor could Zheng Chu’s sword kill Wei Han. There was no way for Wei Han to save Sprout.

Wei Han’s eyes turned red and his heart was filled with anger and despair.

Right at this moment, a sword hum came. The attack against Sprout was slashed in half and there was a shrill sound as it crumbled apart.

“Who is it!”

The swordsman who had attacked Sprout roared in rage.

Woosh –

White Iris landed and she glanced over, “You are Sprout?”

Having been saved, Sprout had escaped from death. She hurriedly nodded her head.

All right then.

White Iris instructed, “Stand behind me.”

She stepped forward confidently.

Shoosh –

Another sword hum came and the swordsman who was targeting Sprout landed in front of her. “I am a disciple of the East Wang Family, Wang Shangzi. Greetings to immortal. May I ask where are you from? I am willing to prepare huge gifts for you and even ask my Old Ancestor to pay a visit to your sect!”

He was immediately fond of this female sword cultivator.

White Iris frowned and she raised her hand and sliced forward.

Wang Shangqi’s expression changed and he quickly lifted his sword before him. However, he was slightly slow and he received a light cut about his eyebrow.

Furious, he gritted his teeth, “Immortal, you have eyes to see. Are you saying that I am not worthy of you?”

White Iris raised her sword again and unleashed another attack.

This attack was stronger than the previous one. The moment the sword hum sounded, Wang Shangqi’s eyes narrowed and anger and shock filled him.

He had not expected that the lady had held back in her two earlier attacks.

With a yell, Wang Shangqi held his sword in two hands and stabbed it forward. Huge waves of energy rolled forward like a roaring river. It was an exceptional blow and this was the River Sword Skill of the Wang Family.

Both sword auras flashed by quickly and they smashed against each other at the speed of lightning. Wang Shangqi was forced backward; blood poured out of his nose and his face was pale.

Both arms that were holding his sword were now shaking slightly. He almost lost his grip on his sword from that move just now. If that had been the case, it would be the greatest humiliation a swordsman could face.

The thought of marriage with her was no longer in his mind.

“Come on, kill her!”

Wang Shangqi shouted angrily.

The other swordsman from the Wang Family entered the battle directly and there was not a moment of hesitation.

Wang Shangqi was the favorite son of the current family head. It was the biggest responsibility of this man, Miao Yijian, to ensure his safety for this journey to Sky Falling Mountain.

Someone who was worthy enough to be sent to protect the important heir of the clan was obviously strong.

In fact, in this world where there weren’t any King realm swordsmen, Miao Yijian’s peak Ruler Human Realm placed him only slightly weaker than the Old Ancestor of the Wang Family.

Of course, like the elite Jin Family who passed down the immortal sword, the Breaking Heavens Sword, the Wang Family also had the ultimate grade Great River Sword. The Old Ancestor held this sword and he was strong enough to fight against a Half-King. Miao Yijian could not compare to that.

However, in Sky Falling Mountain, Miao Yijian was gifted a powerful immortal sword by the Wang Family. It was very suitable for his sword skills and he could quickly unleash his peak powers.

White Iris was put under pressure.

However, she didn't know that Miao Yijian was currently filled with shock. He was stunned to find that there was another peak-level female swordswoman Ruler in this world.

“The Earth Realm!”

She was only slightly more powerful than him. Furthermore, Miao Yijian was jealous because White Iris’ sword aura was vast and wide. It felt like the sun that had risen in the east which held endless vitality that was vigorous enough to sustain all life forms.

It was not like his sword aura that appeared complete and perfect but had already lost its ability to improve.

His Sword Dao cultivation had reached its peak in this world and he was not able to break through anymore.

For a cultivator who had reached the ‘Human Realm’, this was the greatest tragedy.

“Miao Yijian, kill her!” Wang Shangqi roared in rage.

At this moment, the attacking team that had backed off started to jump forward enthusiastically and they charged at Sprout.

Wei Han was strong but he was now engaged in battle with Zheng Chu. The two swordsmen battled fiercely and it was hard for anyone to interfere. If they were not careful, they would be injured by the attacks.

It was much simpler to target Sprout.

Although White Iris was strong, Miao Yijian was strong too. The two were head to head as they battled while Sprout could only retreat.

Back off more, back off more, we can attack soon!

Sprout could sense the cold gazes on her and the sense of danger that came with it.

However, she did not have a choice!

The shockwaves from that battle in front of her forced her to retreat continuously. Otherwise, she would be dragged into it.

“Attack!”

“Take her!”

“She has a secret related to Sky Falling Mountain’s Great Dao!”

The group of men that were waiting for a chance attacked her simultaneously.

White Iris frowned deeply but Miao Yijian was attacking her faster and there was no way for her to help Sprout.

However, right at this moment, someone was faster than them. The cultivators that were targeting Sprout were flung away.

One of them was even smacked in the chest by a palmprint. When he landed on the ground, his life aura was gone.

Did someone come to save me? Just like White Iris.

However, this was not the case. The moment this thought crossed Sprout’s mind, someone grabbed her neck.

“Let’s go!”

Three people shot into the sky.

The group of men that had been forced away were angry and displeased, but no one dared to stop the three.

Because they were simply too strong.

A single blow had killed a person directly.

The victim of that attack was not someone without any background and he was comparable to them in strength.

Dman it!

When did three other powerful men come to Sky Falling Mountain? Furthermore, they were not familiar faces.

“Sprout!”

Wei Han yelled and he forced himself to attack faster. However, he was not able to throw off Zheng Chu. Instead, he was counter-attacked and fresh blood stained his shirt.

Zheng Chu scoffed coldly, “You dare to be distracted when batling with me? You are seeking death! However, that lady has good fate. I wonder what will happen to her in the hands of three men.”

A deep growl emerged from Wei Han’s throat and he cursed, “I will kill you!”

Zheng Chu burst out into laughter, “With your strength, do as you please.”

On the other hand, Miao Yijian wore a straight face. His eyes were cold, “Lady, your opponent is me.”

He performed a sword play with one hand and the dispersed sword aura fell down like rain in every corner, sealing White Iris within.
