Chapter 0288 – A Time of Life and Death – Absolute Return

Bo Qianjing promised them that if they killed the Martial Alliance Master, he would clear their sins and give them a new life.</p>

"Swish! Swish!"</p>

Qin Xia Ling attacked again, but all of her attacks were easily neutralized by Grass Forest.</p>

The surrounding black-clothed men, let out bursts of jeers, and Qin Xia Ling’s heart was filled with despair.</p>

She could only hope for a miracle.</p>

The grassy forest, however, would give her no chance.</p>

"Bang!"</p>

Kusarin once again threw a punch, hitting Qin Xia Ling squarely in the small of her back, and Qin Xia Ling was once again sent flying out, falling heavily to the ground.</p>

This time, she couldn’t stand up anymore.</p>

Kusarin walked up to her, looked at her condescendingly, and said, "Don’t worry, your death will not be in vain, and you will become the sustenance for these trees."</p>

"You scumbags, you don’t even have the qualifications to be feeders!" Qin Xia Ling cursed angrily.</p>

Kusarin sniffed, a cold light flashed in his eyes and said, "If not for the master s order not to hurt you, you would have been …… long ago by us."</p>

His tone was filled with regret.</p>

When Qin Xia Ling sniffed, a vicious chill ran through her heart, and she finally understood why Kusarin had shown that regretful expression.</p>

Kusarin picked up a leaf from the ground, the leaf, which was originally plain, but after it fell into Kusarin’s hands, it exuded a morose chill.</p>

"I will make your death a painful one." Kusarin said.</p>

He raised the leaves in his hand, ready to result in Qin Xia Ling’s life.</p>

Qin Xia Ling closed her eyes and waited for death to come.</p>

How could she not expect that she would die in such a place, at the hands of these scumbags?</p>

She regretted that she shouldn’t have left the Martial Arts League headquarters, that she shouldn’t have competed with Li An, that she shouldn’t ……</p>

She thought of her grandfather, she thought of her brother, she thought of Sword Wuji ……</p>

"I’m sorry ……" she murmured in her mind.</p>

Just then, a gust of wind whistled past, accompanied by a mournful scream.</p>

"Ah ……"</p>

"Pffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff ……"</p>

A huge knife, descending from the sky, cut down all those black-clothed men, chopping and slicing them up.</p>

Seeing this, Kusarin was shocked and hastily stepped back, dodging the attack of the huge blade.</p>

"Boom!"</p>

The giant sword plunged heavily into the ground with a loud thud.</p>

Stunned, Kusarin looked up, only to see a woman dressed in black, standing next to the giant sword, looking at him coldly.</p>

"Ironwood Defense!" Kusarin yelled.</p>

"Rumble ……"</p>

On the ground, countless tree roots suddenly surged out, quickly intertwining together to form a huge wooden wall, blocking in front of the grass forest.</p>

Kusarin hid behind the wooden wall and looked at Qin Xiaoling with murderous intent in his eyes.</p>

"I will kill you!" Kusarin said through gritted teeth.</p>

Right at this moment, Qin Xia Ling suddenly saw that on the other side of that huge blade, a figure, silently flew over.</p>

The figure, light as a swallow, was extremely fast and did not make any sound.</p>

It wasn’t until the figure landed behind Kusarin that Kusarin became aware of his presence.</p>

He turned to look, only to see a cold flash of light.</p>

"Swish!"</p>

"Pfft!"</p>

A long sword, slashed through his neck, and his head, at once, flew up.</p>

Kusarin didn’t even have time to let out a scream before he was in pieces.</p>

Li An held a long sword and stood next to Kusarin’s corpse, coldly looking at the black-clothed men around him.</p>

That huge sword was none other than the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon’s Heaven Destroying Great Sword.</p>

It turned out that the Blood Heavenly Blade Demon hid Li An behind the Heavenly Exterminating Sword, and then threw the Heavenly Exterminating Sword, and Li An followed the Heavenly Exterminating Sword and flew over together.</p>

The Sky Destroying Sword was huge in size, and those men in black, didn’t even notice Li An’s presence.</p>

"Kill them!" A man in black roared.</p>

Those men in black, rushed towards Li An and Qin Xia Ling.</p>

Li An didn’t have time to undo Qin Xia Ling’s acupoints, she could only be alone and face the siege of those black-clothed men.</p>

"Swish Swish Swish ……"</p>

Li An waved the longsword in his hand and cut down those black-clothed men who rushed up, one by one.</p>

She killed four black-robed men one after another, and those black-robed men, finally realized that Li An’s strength, far exceeded theirs, and they changed their tactics.</p>

"Attack with sword qi!" A man in black shouted.</p>

Those black-clothed men who were able to use sword qi unsheathed their swords and shot their sword qi at Li An.</p>

"Hide behind me!" Li An shouted to Qin Xia Ling.</p>

She couldn’t hide, she had to block those sword qi, otherwise, Qin Xia Ling would die.</p>

"Swish Swish Swish ……"</p>

More than ten sword qi, shot at Li An at the same time, Li An’s heart sank, she was not sure that she could block so many sword qi.</p>

Just in the nick of time!</p>

"Swish!"</p>

"Boom!"</p>

A giant sword, which suddenly appeared in front of Li An and Qin Xia Ling, blocked those sword qi.</p>

"Boom! Boom! Boom ……"</p>

The sword qi struck the giant sword, making a deafening ringing sound, but the giant sword did not move at all, blocking all the sword qi, all of it.</p>

Li An looked up and saw the Blood Heavenly Sword Demon holding the Heaven Destroying Great Sword, standing in front of them like a heavenly god descending from the heavens.</p>

At the same time, a deafening thunderclap came from behind.</p>

"Rumble ……"</p>

"Boom!"</p>

Those black-robed men, the huge wooden wall behind them, suddenly exploded, and countless wood shavings, like a torrential downpour, shot towards those black-robed men.</p>

Those men in black, unable to dodge, were hit by the wood chips and fell to the ground, alive or dead.</p>

Li An and Qin Xia Ling, seeing this scene, were dumbstruck.</p>

That wooden wall, impenetrable, was actually shattered by a single punch!</p>

The Fist Demon stood amidst the ruins of the wooden wall, coldly looking at the men in black.</p>

"Kill him!" A man in black shouted as he pointed at the Fist Demon.</p>

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon sniffed, shook his head, and said, "Poor fellow."</p>

He pulled Li An and Qin Xia Ling, behind the Heaven Destroying Greatsword and said, "Hide behind me."</p>

The next moment, a deafening thunderclap sounded once again.</p>

"Rumble ……"</p>

Li An and Qin Xia Ling, only felt their ears buzzing as if they were going to be deafened.</p>

Immediately afterward, a powerful wave of air whistled past the Heaven Destroying Greatsword.</p>

"Phew ……"</p>

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon gripped the Heaven Destroying Great Sword with both hands and blocked that wave of Qi, hard.</p>

If there hadn’t been the blockage of the Heaven Destroying Great Sword, he, Li An, and Qin Xia Ling, would have been blown out by that wave of air, blowing them away.</p>

With just one punch, he killed all of the men in black, all of them.</p>

Li An and Qin Xia Ling, poking their heads out from behind the Heaven Destroying Great Sword, looked at the scene in front of them, their hearts filled with shock.</p>

Those men in black, all of them fell to the ground, not a single survivor.</p>

The Fist Demon stood in the midst of the pile of corpses, as chilling as a killing god.</p>

Even Li An, also felt a trace of fear, this was completely different from the Fist Demon she had seen at the late night practice party, the Fist Demon in actual combat was the real Fist Demon, the dreaded killing god.</p>

Li An finally understood why the Heavenly Demon trusted the Fist Demon so much, because he possessed absolute strength.</p>

The Blood Heavenly Blade Demon inserted the Heaven Destroying Great Sword back into his back, and the Fist Demon walked towards them.
