Chapter 27 This kid is a bit strange
Stand there.
Looking around at the corpses of the city guards scattered all over the ground.
These were the dozens of city guards who had just surrounded Li Xiuyuan.
To Shen Jiyue's surprise, Li Xiuyuan killed dozens of city guards on the spot in just a few breaths.
Shen Jiyue originally thought that Li Xiuyuan had been greatly exhausted after the previous battle with the Li family.
Even if one possesses the skill to absorb internal energy, they would still die from exhaustion under the siege of the city guards.
But to her surprise, Li Xiuyuan seemed to be a perpetual motion machine, and with the help of Iron Shirt, he was not afraid of sword attacks at all.
Within the encirclement, the city guards were subjected to a complete massacre.
Especially his palm strike just now, which, in the few breaths it took to shake him off, instantly killed more than a dozen people.
This made Shen Jiyue feel a little scared!
This kid is too bloodthirsty; he's a complete murderous devil.
That slap just now made her even angrier.
Adding to the twenty-odd city guards who died in the streets earlier, nearly four-fifths of the city guards in Yuanguang City have perished!
This is all thanks to Shen Jiyue's influence.
Now it has been almost completely destroyed by this insignificant good-for-nothing from the Li family!
"Li Xiuyuan... I'll say it one last time, hand over the cultivation technique, and I'll make your death easier!"
With her fists clenched, Shen Jiyue's aura surged, and the furious killing intent in her eyes almost materialized!
Li Xiuyuan glanced at Shen Jiyue, who was furious to the extreme, and suddenly his blood and qi erupted.
With a single step, he was already in front of Shen Jiyue. His swift sword, as fast as a hurricane, had reached Shen Jiyue the instant Li Xiuyuan appeared.
"You ignorant fool, humph!"
As Shen Jiyue shouted, she reached out and grabbed Li Xiuyuan's sharp sword.
Immediately, he raised his other hand and slapped Li Xiuyuan on the head.
At such a short distance, and with his sword under control, the palm strike struck Li Xiuyuan like lightning, landing squarely on his head just as he was about to dodge.
A deadly danger caused Li Xiuyuan's expression to change drastically.
He immediately concentrated all his strength into his head, fully activating his maxed-out Iron Shirt technique.
With a "thud," Shen Jiyue's palm struck Li Xiuyuan on the head.
Li Xiuyuan suddenly felt dizzy and lightheaded, and his whole body was thrown away, crashing heavily to the ground.
A mouthful of blood spurted out with a "pfft".
Li Xiuyuan quickly slapped the ground and stood up.
He felt that deadly palm wind falling towards him again.
Li Xiuyuan immediately retreated, using the Golden Goose Skill to swiftly dodge and move several feet away.
Shaking his head, Li Xiuyuan finally saw that Shen Jiyue, not far away, suddenly stomped on the ground, and a sharp long knife flew up from the ground, which she then slapped away with a palm.
"Whoosh!"...
As soon as he regained his footing and his eyes were clear, Li Xiuyuan saw that a sharp long knife was already at his chest.
"Bang!"
Although the Iron Shirt technique blocked the attack, the terrifying power it contained forced Li Xiuyuan to stagger back several steps before regaining his footing.
Clutching his aching chest, Li Xiuyuan took a few deep breaths, channeled his inner energy, and stared at Shen Jiyue, who was coldly watching him from a distance.
He was even more shocked, realizing that Shen Jiyue had probably already reached the mid-to-late stage of the seventh rank.
He can project his internal energy outwards, and his mastery of internal energy has reached a level of consummate skill.
If I want to kill her, I can't retreat any further; I'll just be worn down and killed from a distance!
After glancing at the two heavily wounded city guard commanders standing not far away, Li Xiuyuan immediately took a deep breath and gripped the sharp longsword tightly in his right hand.
"Again!"
With a loud shout, Li Xiuyuan unleashed the Eight Steps to Catch the Cicada to its fullest extent, and in a flash, he thrust his sword toward Shen Jiyue's throat.
"die!"
Shen Jiyue stood there, her body to the side, her five fingers forming a claw as she reached out to grab Li Xiuyuan's wrist, which was holding the sword.
At the critical moment, Li Xiuyuan's long sword slipped from his hand, and he suddenly grabbed at the air with his left hand, unleashing the Absorption Technique to its fullest extent.
In an instant, the longsword that had been thrown from his hand returned to his left hand in mid-air.
Grab it tightly, and pull with all your might!
"Pfft..."
Ah!
Faced with Li Xiuyuan's sudden and bizarre attack, even though Shen Jiyue keenly sensed the danger, she had no time to react.
He had no choice but to grit his teeth and grab Li Xiuyuan's right hand tightly, about to squeeze it hard.
The sharp sword sliced across Shen Jiyue's lower abdomen, leaving a deep, bloody gash.
Amidst the spurting blood, Shen Jiyue managed to hold onto Li Xiuyuan's right hand, but the excruciating pain in her abdomen caused her hand to tremble. In that instant, Li Xiuyuan grabbed Shen Jiyue's wrist in return.
The Absorption Technique was activated at full power.
Although Li Xiuyuan's Absorption Technique can no longer absorb the power of those with higher cultivation levels, it can still disrupt the internal energy circulation within an opponent's body.
"you……"
He sensed that the internal energy within his body was out of his control and was surging wildly toward his wrist.
Shen Jiyue trembled immediately, abruptly released her grip, and pushed Li Xiuyuan away with her left hand. With a few quick movements, she widened the distance between herself and Li Xiuyuan.
"Lord of the city, how are you?"
The city guard commander standing not far away had taken the Qi and Blood Pill and was almost fully recovered. Upon seeing this, he quickly took a few steps to Shen Jiyue's side.
Shen Jiyue waved her hand.
He glanced at the conspicuous sword wound on his abdomen, then looked at the blood-stained young man standing not far away with a wary and complicated expression.
A tremendous storm was brewing in my heart.
She hadn't taken a junior member of the Li family seriously, even though Li Xiuyuan had just displayed terrifying strength, killing dozens of city guards who were surrounding them in just a few breaths.
Although Shen Jiyue was furious, she remained completely calm.
After all, in her eyes, Li Xiuyuan was only an eighth-rank official, and he had only achieved that rank quickly by absorbing other people's internal energy.
Someone who achieves the eighth rank in this way could never be her match.
But the exchange just now left Shen Jiyue in shock time and time again.
From the moment she slapped Li Xiuyuan on the head and he didn't faint on the spot, Shen Jiyue already felt somewhat incredulous.
Just now, he even used a bizarre method, injuring himself while simultaneously grabbing his wrist and trying to absorb his internal energy!
Yes, Shen Jiyue could not have misperceived anything at that moment.
Almost the instant Li Xiuyuan grabbed her wrist, the internal energy in her dantian surged wildly towards her right wrist, even beyond her control.
"Lord, this kid is a bit strange..."
The city guard leader, who had just had his chest pierced by Li Xiuyuan's sword, looked at Li Xiuyuan with lingering fear.
Taking advantage of this lull, Li Xiuyuan swallowed a few Qi and Blood Pills, looked up at the three people in front of him, and his eyes flashed with a fierce fighting spirit.
Li Xiuyuan's confidence soared after his encounter with Shen Jiyue.
If his head-on battle with Lin Shuang, an eighth-rank expert and a newly-entered ninth-rank master of Iron Shirt, against her on a rainy morning three days ago was a test, then...
At this moment, Li Xiuyuan, having just fought with Shen Jiyue, already had great confidence in defeating her.
Compared to her "elder brother" Li Cangshan, who was also a seventh-rank official and whom she had killed not long ago, Shen Jiyue was much stronger.
It's just unknown whether Shen Jiyue has any other methods or what kind of weapon she might use.
However, Li Xiuyuan didn't care about these things at the moment. He was going to kill Shen Jiyue with his sword right here today!
Li Xiuyuan looked up, his gaze sharpened, and his internal energy surged throughout his body.
He gripped his longsword tightly and took a step forward, arriving behind the three in the blink of an eye.
The longsword fell with lightning speed.
"puff……"
