Song of Adolescence

Chapter 236 Three Sword Immortals

This chapter is updated by Novelfree.ml

Li Hanyi held her twin swords tightly in both hands, but she could no longer exert any of her qi. Her expression turned furious as she stood there glaring at the five strange people in front of her, yet she did not advance to fight them.

"It’s such an honor to be able to personally kill the Snow Moon Sword Immortal, one of the five sword immortals," the man wearing a blood-red mask of a ferocious ghost stepped forward and laughed in a low voice.

But one man with his sword flashed passed and stood between Li Hanyi and that person.

Lei Hong of Lei Clan.

Lei Hong stared at the masked man in front of him, and remembered some of the rumours he heard in the past. "Kui?" According to the rumors, Kui was the leader of the Spider Shadows, the Hidden River Patriarch’s personal assassin squad. He usually wore a blood-red mask of a ferocious ghost and only followed the orders of the Patriarch. Many years ago, during the Demonic Cult Eastern Incursion, the Hidden River had sent Kui and thirty-two Spider Shadows to participate in the fight.

Kui also took an interest in Lei Hong’s sword and he looked at it before turning to Lei Hong, his eyes full of excitement. "Are you Lei Hong of Lei Clan?"

Lei Hong frowned slightly. "What about it?"

Kui laughed long and hard, and he couldn’t suppress the ecstasy in his heart. "Great, this is wonderful. Another person whom I want to kill is standing right here! I… want to kill you!"

"You can try," Lei Hong said coldly.

"Do you know who they are?" Kui suddenly pointed at the expressionless people next to him.

"They’re just puppets," Lei Hong said with disdain.

"Indeed, they’re puppets, but these are the most perfect puppets in the world." Kui turned and stroked the face of the puppet who looked like Li Hanyi. "They’ve been cultivated for many years to imitate the martial arts of these peerless martial experts and mimic their breaths. As they are now, they may not match up to the originals, but they’re still terrifyingly powerful. You could even mistake them for the genuine products."

"As for you two, Li Hanyi has been poisoned by the Crimson Tears and she can no longer exert her internal energy, and you are injured." Kui waved his hand. "While I have them."

More than ten assassins appeared in the distance, watching them from afar. They didn’t seem to be coming closer but they had already blocked off all paths of retreat.

Lei Hong was not afraid at all. He just smiled and said, "So much blustering but the main gist you’re saying is, we outnumber you."

"Hahahaha, how bold!" Kui waved his sleeves. "Attack!"

The four puppets leapt up at the same time and rushed at Lei Hong to attack.

Lei Hong roared in response and jumped. His first sword blocked the spear, the blade of his sword rumbled with the sound of thunder as it smashed the spear into splinters. He kicked the Sikong Changfeng puppet into the ground, then whirled around and parried the two swords from the puppet Li Hanyi and puppet Yan Zhantian.

A red light pierced through the puppet Yan Zhantian's chest.

A fist wind sent the puppet Li Hanyi flying away.

At this moment, Lei Hong's eyes were red, and the qi in his entire body had exploded. He surged directly into the highest realm of his Blazing Arts - Karmic Fire Realm! He looked at the last puppet Baili Dongjun and roared, "Die!"

The puppet Baili Dongjun struck with his fist, and the power in the fist was as vast as the mountain and sea.

Lei Hong didn't even bother to look. He cut off its head with one swing of his sword!

"Mere puppets!" Lei Hong withdrew quickly and landed on the ground, avoiding the spray of dark red blood.

However, Kui, who had been observing everything coldly, suddenly rushed forward. Lei Hong slashed his sword at him, but a long sword emerged from the man’s sleeve and collided with the Murderous Dread sword. Moments later, Kui retracted his sword again. But his left hand was suddenly armed with a short spear and he thrusted it at Lei Hong’s chest. Lei Hong was shocked and hurriedly retreated again, but the lapels of his shirt over his chest had already been torn. Kui once again retracted the short spear into his sleeve, but this time, a silver axe flew out. Lei Hong bent backwards to dodge the silver axe, just as a long sabre came slashing towards him.

Kui’s robes seemed to hide countless weapons, and he could switch almost instantaneously between them, going for the one he could best use to kill the opponent. The speed of his movements and the ruthlessness of his attacks were incredible.

"The Hidden River’s killing techniques are truly exceptional!" Lei Hong praised fiercely. Then, he hit the ground with his sword, pushed with all his strength, and made use of the sword’s power to retreat backwards. Kui pressed forward in pursuit, but right then, a ray of cold light stopped him and crushed his long sabre into two halves.

"What?" Kui was shocked. He stood still and looked over at Li Hanyi.

Li Hanyi was still holding Armoured Glacier in her right hand and her left hand had thrusted the Peach Blossom sword into the ground beside her. The fingertips of her left hand were engulfed in mist as she forced out the toxin of the Crimson Tears.

"Interesting." Kui grinned lightly. Lei Hong had dispatched the four puppets within moments and Li Hanyi took the risk of speeding up the effect of the poison by exerting her internal strength to force the poison out. Although he was arrogant, he knew that he couldn’t take out the two of them on his own, so he slowly took a step back, intending to call out to the other assassins watching from the side to attack together.

However, a sharp whistle sounded!

That whistling sound pierced through the air with a power that was frightening!

Everyone whirled their heads and looked, only to see a middle-aged Confucian carrying a bookcase on his back, all dressed in white, and armed with a sword as he rushed in their direction.

"Stop him!" Kui shouted angrily.

But who could have stopped him? The middle-aged Confucian waved his long sword and tore a hole through that perfect net of encirclement.

Another sharp whistle followed!

The middle-aged Confucian slowly put away his sword and stood beside Lei Hong and Li Hanyi.

Next to him, Li Fansong and Fei Xuan had also arrived. They took advantage of the wake of his sword move to break through the killing formation together.

Li Fansong clicked his tongue and gasped in admiration. "I have to make him my teacher."

Kui whispered, "Confucian Sword Immortal Xie Xuan?"

Xie Xuan sighed lightly. "Go ahead and run."

Kui started, then retorted angrily, "Run?"

"Hurry and run away while I have yet to feel like killing you. You and him are both Kui, but you’re far beneath the Su Muyu of back then. If the Su Muyu of the past were the one standing here right now, he might be worthy of drawing his sword against us." Xie Xuan's tone was extremely sincere. "As for you, you should run as fast as you can. Run back to your Hidden River and never come out again!"

Finally, Kui could no longer suppress the anger in his heart. The eleven assassins who had been chasing Xie Xuan had also arrived and he flung back, "The Hidden River’s Spider Shadow are here. Two of you are seriously injured and you have another two pieces of trash. How are you qualified to tell me to run?"

Xie Xuan suddenly laughed, as if an adult was amused by a child’s childish behaviour. "We have three sword immortals here. Just what kind of formation in the world can stop three sword immortals? You really are a child. You only know this method of blustering."

"Three sword immortals?" Li Fansong was bewildered. "Isn't it just you, Mister, and shiniang, who are sword immortals? Could it be that the Solitary Sword Immortal Luo Qingyang is also here?"

Xie Xuan smiled slightly. "Bai Xiao Hall’s Ji Ruofeng has been away from the martial world for many years and no one has dared to correct the martial ranking list under Heaven. This Xie is not talented. Having seen Lei-xiong’s sword today, you surely deserve the title sword immortal. Lei-xiong’s sword has the strength and impetus of thunder and an extraordinary grandeur. I would confer the word, thunder, and call you Thunder Sword Immortal. How about it?"
