Chapter 549 The Heart to Kill
"Hahaha, brat, I'm not going to bother you, but you've come to me on your own initiative. Don't blame me for being impolite."
After saying that, Fan Xiaojian attacked Lin Ping directly, giving him no chance to back out.
The sharp longsword in Fan Xiaojian's hand was like a vicious venomous snake, flicking its tongue as it snaked its way towards him, finally coming straight for his chest.
This is a deadly move.
All the outer disciples were sweating for Lin Ping, some even closing their eyes, unable to bear witnessing the horrific scene that was about to unfold.
"Husband, be careful!" Jiang Yunying almost shouted out loud, glaring angrily at Fan Xiaojian.
If Lin Pingzhen were killed by him, Jiang Yunying would not hesitate to kill Fan Xiaojian.
She is the chief disciple of the Cold Moon Peak Master and Luo Shaoyin's niece, holding a pivotal position within the Lotus Palace.
Apart from the palace master, no one dared to lay a hand on her.
Her only weakness is Lin Ping. The reason she has been holding back until now is because she is afraid of exposing Lin Ping's identity.
If Lin Ping were dead, she would have no weakness and could kill at will, at most she would just be criticized.
"Fan Xiaojian, you'd better tone it down, or you won't be able to bear the consequences of angering me," Jiang Yunying said through gritted teeth, already prepared to take action.
Lin Ping sacrificed so much to find her. If she didn't stand up for him when his life was hanging by a thread, she wouldn't deserve his love.
Therefore, she had made up her mind that as long as Fan Xiaojian dared to kill Lin Ping, she would stand up without hesitation and stand with Lin Ping against the common enemy.
When husband and wife are of one mind, their strength can break metal; so what if they are enemies of the world?
At this moment, Lin Ping's right pupil was changing unpredictably, emitting beams of X-rays continuously, and he could clearly see Fan Xiaojian's movements.
"As expected of a master of the Black Lotus Realm, their speed is truly impressive." Lin Ping shook his head inwardly.
Although Fan Xiaojian used the most inferior sword technique, he employed the most superior lightness skill, and this sword strike was absolutely capable of killing a master of the White Lotus Realm.
Lin Ping considered drawing his sword to defend himself, but he didn't know how strong Fan Xiaojian was.
If the difference in strength is too great, his longsword could easily slip from his hand and pierce his chest.
"Pheasant tail whip!"
At the critical moment, Lin Ping used the lightness skill taught by Jiang Mo, twisting his upper body strangely to cleverly dodge the sharp sword.
"What just happened? How did he dodge it?"
"I think I saw a giant bald chicken wagging its tail."
Everyone looked at the two of them with confusion, unable to see what had happened.
"That swing just now was no accident. Is this another surprise you've brought me?" The Peak Master of Flying Rainbow Peak watched with great interest, filled with anticipation for the competition.
He knew that he couldn't beat Fan Xiaojian by simply relying on his lightness skills; if Lin Ping wanted to win, he had to show his true abilities.
"My husband's posture just now was so ugly..." Jiang Yunying muttered to herself, covering her face, but inwardly she was pleasantly surprised.
She was the person who understood Lin Ping best in the world, knowing that Lin Ping never did anything without being sure of success.
Her earlier worries were unnecessary; she shouldn't have lacked confidence in Lin Ping.
Fan Xiaojian is nothing but a nobody. He's asking for trouble by messing with my husband.
"You're lucky, kid. You managed to dodge one attack because you were so scared that your body went limp. You probably won't be so lucky this time."
Fan Xiaojian drew his sword again, his eyes fixed on his every move.
"Chaos ensued!"
Having tasted its benefits, Lin Ping found the lightness skill even more wondrous and used its supernatural powers once again.
This time, Lin Ping didn't sway left and right, but leaped into the sky, successfully avoiding Fan Xiaojian's attack and even retaliating.
Fan Xiaojian hurriedly sheathed his sword, frantically trying to defend against Lin Ping's attack that descended from the sky.
"You brat, are you a chicken or a dog? Why aren't you playing by the rules?" Fan Xiaojian said angrily.
Lin Ping's movements were indeed strange and difficult to understand, which gave Fan Xiaojian a real headache.
It's shameful to fail to subdue an outer disciple in two consecutive moves.
"This strike will surely kill you!" Fan Xiaojian's lips curled into a chilling smile, and the long sword in his hand moved unpredictably.
He didn't call out the name of the move because it violated the rules.
"Romantic tales? He actually used romantic tales to deal with his husband?" Jiang Yunying was terrified.
This is the ultimate move of the Black Lotus Realm, far superior to Lotus Blossom. With Lin Ping's mediocre lightness skill, he simply cannot dodge it.
"Master Mei, has your beloved disciple broken the rules?" the peak master of Feihong Peak questioned.
Although he thought highly of Lin Ping, he did not believe that Lin Ping could really defeat Fan Xiaojian. If things continued to develop, Lin Ping would surely die, and he would likely lose a talented person.
"Peak Master Chu, you are mistaken. My beloved disciple merely used the 'wind, flowers, snow, and moon' technique to block his retreat, preventing him from running around like a chicken or a dog. The final killing move is still 'Lotus Blossom,' so that we can test whose 'Lotus Blossom' is more powerful."
Mei Jiecao, the shameless head of the Enforcement Hall, explained.
Fan Xiaojian is a master of the Black Lotus Realm. How could an outer disciple compare to his understanding of the Lotus Flower's Appearance? This is clearly an attempt to cut off their path to the inner sect and kill Lin Ping to vent their anger.
"You, you... Hmph, I will explain the situation to the Palace Master." The Peak Master of Flying Rainbow Peak said angrily after being rebuffed.
He didn't truly admire Lin Ping, but rather felt that Lin Ping still had value and shouldn't die here so early.
However, we cannot afford to fall out with the Enforcement Hall for the sake of an outer disciple, as that would inevitably give Beidou Peak the opportunity to take advantage of our misfortune.
"Romantic musings? Do you really want to kill me?" Lin Ping said through gritted teeth.
Faced with the sharp sword moves, Lin Ping neither dodged nor avoided them. He remained calm and even secretly observed the expressions of Mei Jiecao and Fan Xiaojian.
As the romantic atmosphere drew closer, Fan Xiaojian clearly changed his sword techniques.
"You're going to use romantic gestures to block my escape route, and then decide the outcome with a single lotus bloom? Very well, as you wish, I'll use this move to completely defeat you!"
Lin Ping's eyes flickered uncertainly, and in his mind, it seemed as if there were two little figures dancing with swords.
One of them used Lotus Blossom, and the other used Sunrise over the River.
The sword moves, which seem completely unrelated, are intricately connected in some mysterious way.
If the fleeting appearance of a lotus flower is like a snake, then the sunrise over the river is like a fierce dragon.
He wanted to simplify the difficult process, discarding the roar of the dragon and leaving only a single thrust that resembled the fleeting appearance of a lotus flower.
"Let me show you the Lotus Flower's Subtle Move! A power powerful enough to devour everything!"
A sharp light flashed in Lin Ping's eyes as he poured immense energy into his longsword, transforming it into a raging dragon crossing a river.
"break!"
The blades clashed violently, and Fan Xiaojian's momentum instantly weakened.
Bang!
With an overwhelming aura, Lin Ping's power, capable of swallowing everything, completely repelled Fan Xiaojian. Not only did Fan Xiaojian lose his sword, but he also tumbled several times in the air before finally collapsing to the ground in a sorry state.
Although he wasn't injured, he had already lost the sword move.
