Chapter 1543: Chapter 1540: The Death of Housekeeper Zhuo Yi!Li Zong held a sword named the Survival Sword.
The Survival Sword ranked seventy-second on the Top Martial Spirit Weapon Ranking, and any weapon that made it into the top hundred could essentially be considered one of the most powerful Extreme Martial Spiritual Artifacts on the Lingnan Continent.
The name "Survival" doesnât refer to the sword wielderâs desire to live, but under this sword, both gods and men perish, left to merely struggle for breath, begging the sword owner for mercy to be granted life!
Ever since the Survival Sword was forged a hundred years ago, each generation of owners on the Lingnan Continent has carved out a great reputation, and now it has come into Li Zongâs possession.
Li Zong has been obsessed with swords since he was young, once a disciple of the Inner Gate at the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, and even attained the status of a Purple Robe Disciple. However, due to offending an Elder of the Inner Gate, he was schemed against and expelled from the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect.
After leaving the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, the Elder even dispatched masters to assassinate him. It was during this assassination attempt that Li Zong fortuitously came upon the Survival Sword in a desperate place, turning the tides fiercely.
Since then, Li Zong has wandered the Lingnan Continent, where he met Yue Zheng.
Yue Zheng, seeing Li Zongâs remarkable Sword Skill and learning of his past with the Heaven-reaching Sword Sect, took a liking to him, took him under his wing, provided him with ample Cultivation Resources, and forcefully pushed his Cultivation to the Second Level of the Yangshen Realm.
Afterward, Yue Zheng even arranged for Li Zong to protect Yue Hua, never leaving her side.
Grateful for Yue Zhengâs kindness and recognizing his opportunity, Li Zong has always handled affairs for Yue Zheng and Yue Hua.
Having been in Silver Moon Commerce Association for a long time, Li Zong also holds the title of one of the Top Ten Guardians, making him a renowned Strong One in Haizhen City!
Especially with the Survival Sword in his hands, countless Warriors who had offended Yue Zheng and Yue Hua begged desperately beneath it.
"Miss, rest assured, I will make my move quickly and will not cause you too much pain," Li Zong said coldly as he raised the Survival Sword, a cold light spreading from it.
Whooshâ
Suddenly, Li Zongâs figure flashed, transforming into a Waning Shadow striking at Yue Qing, with the Survival Sword in his hand bursting forth with Sword Aura surpassing the Sun, Moon and Stars, killing unstoppably.
Seeing this, Yue Qing immediately mobilized all her strength, desperately trying to block Li Zongâs sword!
Although both were Warriors of the same State, Yue Qing was still weaker than Li Zong. After all, Li Zong was a Sword Cultivator Strong One who had honed his Sword Skill through constant killing!
And Yue Qing was not up to Li Zongâs level.
With one sword strike, Li Zong sent Yue Qing flying, leaving more than a dozen Sword Marks on her body, the fresh blood spilling out and staining her White Robe red.
The sword strike just now had myriad transformations. It seemed only one thrust, but left several Sword Marks on Yue Qingâs body, revealing how profound Li Zongâs comprehension in the Realm of Comprehension and mastery of Sword Skill truly was!
"Survival Sword! Li Zong! Truly lives up to oneâs reputation," Yue Qing said in distress as she fell to the ground, with blood spilling from the corner of her mouth staining her White Veil red, yet her eyes carried a hint of a smile.
"Dying by your hands is better than dying at the hands of that despicable father and son, Yue Zheng," she said softly.
Hearing Yue Qingâs words, Li Zongâs expression did not change at all, as if he were a killing machine devoid of emotion.
He swung his Sharp Sword, a merciless sword light cutting towards Yue Qingâs throat.
"Miss! Protect the Miss!" Housekeeper Zhuo Yi let out a cry of alarm, immediately leaping forward, attempting to use his own body to block the sword for Yue Qing.
"Humph, Zhuo Yi, today, not just the Miss will die, you too will not escape this disaster." At this moment, Manager Lang Ning sneered coldly, his palm whirling with a pitch-black fog, ruthlessly striking at Zhuo Yiâs back and stopping him in his tracks!
As the sword was about to strike Yue Qingâs throat.
"Protect the Miss!"
"Protect the young miss!"
At this moment, over twenty loyal guardians saw Yue Qing caught in a dangerous situation and immediately shouted in alarm.
Mindless of their own lives, the over twenty loyal guardians charged forward, attacking Li Zong.
Li Zongâs gaze shifted, and with a flick of his sword, tens of thousands of Sword Shadows immediately slaughtered their way down.
Merely with this one sword strike, over twenty loyal guardians were instantly slain beneath the blade!
On the other side, Housekeeper Zhuo Yi, who was intercepted by Lang Ning, was also covered in wounds. Lang Ning shattered the heart meridian of Housekeeper Zhuo Yi with a punch, saying coldly, "Zhuo Yi, you chose the wrong master."
With his breath weak, Zhuo Yi fell to the ground and said coldly, "Lang Ning, you beast, you have betrayed the trust of the Old President who took such good care of you! Lang Ning, I, Zhuo Yi, am enough to die today, please let the young miss leave!"
Lang Ning sneered, "Youâre all going to die today!"
"Li Zong, kill Yue Qing."
Lang Ning shouted to Li Zong.
After dealing with the over twenty loyal guardians brought by Yue Qing, Li Zongâs gaze remained as icily detached as ever, thrusting his sword toward Yue Qing.
At this point, Yue Qingâs body was heavily wounded; Li Zongâs sword strike had bizarrely severed seven of her main meridians, causing her to fall to the ground, temporarily losing her ability to move and fight.
Now, as Yue Qing watched Li Zongâs sword thrust at her, she had the will to resist but was powerless to fight back!
"Donât!" Housekeeper Zhuo Yi yelled hoarsely at this moment, his voice filled with pain and sorrow, "Old President, I have failed you, I couldnât protect your only descendent!"
Housekeeper Zhuo Yi howled in anguish and rage toward the sky.
However, at that moment, a figure in a White Robe flashed across the night sky, appearing before Yue Qing. He raised his hand, concentrating his energy at the tip of his sword finger, and with a fierce slash, casually intercepted Li Zongâs attack.
"Whoâs this person? Daring to interfere with Silver Moon Commerce Associationâs affairs?"
Lang Ning, seeing someone stop Li Zongâs sword strike, immediately said coldly.
Li Zong was also astonished as he looked up; although he hadnât used his full strength in that strike, it wasnât something just anyone could easily catch.
The figure in white landed, revealing the appearance of a young manâit was Lin Bai!
"Brother Dongfang!"
Housekeeper Zhuo Yi called out in surprise.
Yue Qing, lying injured on the ground, looked up at the figure before her and a faint smile touched her lips, "You actually didnât take the opportunity to flee amidst the chaos. You havenât tarnished the many honors you bear."
Lin Bai chuckled lightly, "Do you really think of me as such an opportunist in your heart?"
After seeing Lin Bai, Lang Ning said coldly and repeatedly, "A mere Ninth Level Warrior of the Yin Saint Realm dares to meddle in the affairs of the Silver Moon Commerce Association, truly a death wish. Li Zong, kill the both of them."
Housekeeper Zhuo Yi hastily said, "Brother Dongfang, do you remember what I said to you last night?"
"Donât engage Li Zong in a fight to the death, you are no match for him, take the young miss and leave."
Housekeeper Zhuo Yi rapidly shouted to Lin Bai.
"Housekeeper Zhuo Yi, are you alright?" Lin Bai went to check on Housekeeper Zhuo Yiâs condition and his gaze immediately turned icy.
Housekeeper Zhuo Yi had his heart meridian shattered and was close to death!
