Min Hongyi couldn’t believe that this kid actually breached his attack and defense, truly stabbing his spear into his leg!
Not only did Gu Jiao stab him, but she also gave an additional spin for free.
This kind of thing becomes easier with practice, quite skillful.
Min Hongyi was a martial artist with immense strength, and most of his power came from his legs. Injuring them meant that at least half of his moves and prowess would be unusable.
However, it seemed his luck hadn’t run out yet. Just as Gu Jiao planned to quickly finish him off and send him on his way down Huangquan Road, a swordsman suddenly emerged from the forest.
The opponent was highly skilled, with powerful sword energy, and took advantage of Gu Jiao being fully engaged with Min Hongyi to launch a surprise attack!
"Brother! Watch out!"
Little Black Wuchang shouted loudly with a fist clenching.
It’s bad, her spear was already thrust out; it’s too late—
The opponent chose the perfect moment when Gu Jiao couldn’t defend!
At the critical moment, a whip lashed out and wrapped around Gu Jiao’s supple waist, yanking her forcefully backward.
Gu Jiao and the Ghost King suddenly vanished!
The swordsman landed beside Min Hongyi, glanced at him still breathing, and focused his attention on the surroundings.
This was a very experienced swordsman and, after a brief moment of confusion, he suddenly dashed towards where Gu Jiao had disappeared and struck mid-air!
A sound of tearing was heard as the black curtain, blending with the night, was split open.
Behind the curtain, Gu Jiao, the Ghost King, and Black and White Wuchang, as well as all the jungle behind them, were fully revealed.
"It’s indeed a Blinding Technique!"
The swordsman sneered coldly, not allowing them a chance to escape. He tapped his toes off a tree branch and unsheathed his sword to attack them!
Gu Jiao could sense that his prowess was almost on par with the Dark Soul’s, another of the Dark Soul’s fellow comrades!
It seemed the Sword Hut was not only in collusion with Liang Country but also with Jin Country.
Or perhaps... the Sword Thistle belonged to Jin Country! A formidable force of Jin Country!
A fierce battle was about to begin...
She gripped her spear and stepped forward.
The man, however, raised his hand lightly and stopped her: "Step back."
Gu Jiao gave him an incredulous look.
The swordsman said coldly: "Tonight, none of you will escape!"
His longsword rose like a rainbow, striking fiercely at the man’s head!
