Warrior's Promise
chapter-78

Yang Zhixuan was furious at Jade-faced Playboy's words, and her pretty face turned red.

She was just a girl who was ignorant of worldly affairs, and she could not stand such indecent words.

Thus, she did not hesitate to attack.

Although Yang Zhixuan was a martial artist at the Lv 3 Spiritual Martial Realm, it was the first time for her to carry out a task.

Highly talented and with a profound background, she had been studying steadily in the Sky Yuan Sect.

Recently, since she had stopped making progress, she wanted to train herself in the outside world.

When she found the task among so many others in the sect, she got furious immediately.

She could not believe that there were such rogues in the world, so she accepted the task at once and swore to eliminate this curse for the people.

Yang Zhixuan's sword was light and magnificent, and once taken out, it magically changed into several rays of colorful sword shadows. She stabbed directly toward the chest of Jade-faced Playboy.

Jade-faced Playboy turned aside slightly, shattered the sword shadow with one palm, and swung his sword.

In no time, his right hand turned into a claw, which grabbed at Yang Zhixuan's fair neck.

Yang Zhixuan took up her sword to resist.

Bang!

Jade-faced Playboy's palm fell on the longsword, and both of them retreated at the same time.

"Rogue, you must die!"

Yang Zhixuan shouted delicately, and her sword split through the air toward him.

"Rainbow Swordplay!"

The shining sword radiance burst into a huge seven-colored Sword Qi, beautiful as a dream, and chopped toward Jade-faced Playboy like lightning.

"Break!" Jade-faced Playboy shouted and did not back down.

Before it could be noticed, a waving folding fan appeared in his hand, which was as sharp as a good sword, that had easily broken the Seven-colored Sword Qi.

"Little beauty, I couldn't bear hurting you. Give in quickly."

Jade-faced Playboy teased her.

"In your dreams! Anyone who meets you will desire to kill you, you dirty rogue."

Yang Zhixuan growled angrily, and her longsword was shaking consistently, with seven-colored Sword Qi soaring in every direction.

"Rainbow Illusive Cut!"

"Tianyin One Hit!"

Jade-faced Playboy did not show any impression of weakness and was well matched in strength with Yang Zhixuan even with only a folding fan in his hand.

Peng, Peng, Peng...!

Their shadows were flickering. Sword Qi was soaring. The sound of explosions was endless, and the fierce wave of Qi was rolling from all sides.

The two of them fought back and forth, having had more than 10 strokes in a minute.

They seemed to be equal.

Su Mo stood in a far-away tower, watching all of this quietly.

"She must be a disciple of the Sky Yuan Sect!"

Su Mo came to understand that someone else had also assigned the task of killing this man.

After watching for a while, Su Mo shook his head. The girl was strong, but she was obviously not strong enough to overpower Jade-faced Playboy.

The girl's cultivation was obviously better than Jade-faced Playboy's, and she was much better in her cultivation method and martial arts techniques.

However, she had so little experience in fighting that her shortcomings were revealed one by one.

Moreover, the girl was in such a pursuit of magnificence that she had lost the essence of swordplay.

"Rainbow Glaze Rain!"

Yang Zhixuan was shouting delicately in the field. The massive seven-colored Qi was falling down like soft spring rain, completely covering Jade-faced Playboy.

"Very good!"

Jade-faced Playboy growled loudly. Genuine Qi flowed out of him, supporting a defense shield around him.

For a martial artist in the Spiritual Martial Realm, Genuine Qi could flow out from within him. It could make both your attack more powerful and your defense much stronger.

Ripples flowed when the massive Seven-colored Sword was chopping on the defense shield.

Seeing that the shield was going to be broken, the folding fan in Jade-faced Playboy's hand trembled.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Several rays of light that were hard to observe flashed and then disappeared.

The rays of light broke the seal of the Sword Qi and shot toward Yang Zhixuan like lightning.

"Oh no!"

Shocked, Yang Zhixuan found that the rays of light had reached her and that there was nowhere to escape.

At that critical moment, she could not do anything but resist with her sword.

Yang Zhixuan swayed her longsword, causing a sword curtain.

Ding! Ding! Ding!

There came several ringing sounds when several silver needles hit the sword curtain and then fell onto the ground.

However, there was still a silver needle that had broken through the block of sword curtain and reached Yang Zhixuan's shoulder, drilling into in her flesh and blood.

"Haha, my little beauty, let me see how you can resist now."

The moment that he won, Jade-faced Playboy burst into laughter.

"Wh-what kind of needle is it?" Yang Zhixuan asked anxiously.

"Calm down, it is not poison, but just Atony Powder in Three Breaths."

Jade-faced Playboy's eyes were shining wickedly. He stuck out his bloody tongue and said with a smile, "Having been poisoned by my Atony Powder in Three Breaths, you will feel sour and powerless, and then, I can do anything to you."

"What?"

Shocked, Yang Zhixuan's face became ghastly pale.

She quickly felt a sour feeling flowing through her, and all her strength was running out crazily like she was a leaking ball.

She could not even operate the Genuine Qi inside of her.

"You beast!"

Her face was pale, and her body was shaky.

"Haha, my little beauty, so far no woman that I have liked has ever escaped from me."

Jade-faced Playboy laughed and walked toward Yang Zhixuan, looking up and down her curvy body, and said with a lustful smile, "Haha, I can not wait to..."

"D-don't come here!"

Yang Zhixuan was so shocked and said worriedly, "Since my father is an elder in the Sky Yuan Sect, he won't let you go free if you keep on treating me this way!"

"An elder?"

Jade-faced Playboy hesitated for a second and then said with a disdained smile, "Even if your father is an elder in the Sky Yuan Sect, what can he do to me? After this, I will leave Skymoon Country. In the big world outside, I don't believe he could find me."

With these words, Jade-faced Playboy walked toward Yang Zhixuan and was about to grab her.

Shocked, Yang Zhixuan's face became ghastly pale and she felt desperate.

Her eyes were red, and tears flowed down.

How could she have expected that her first task would also be her nightmare?

Seeing Jade-faced Playboy's palm approaching her body, she felt determined to kill herself by biting her tongue.

Just at this moment, something happened. A sharp Sword Qi stormed from somewhere far away and chopped down on Jade-faced Playboys' head like lightning.

"Who is it?"

Shocked, Jade-faced Playboy had no time to escape and anxiously waved the folding fan in his hand to resist the Sword Qi that was coming toward him.

Bang!

The Sword Qi was broken, and Jade-faced Playboy retreated from the momentum.

Then, he gazed and saw a boy in white walking toward him.

His brows were like stars, and his eyes were like cold swords.

It was Su Mo. Since Yang Zhixuan had lost, it was his turn to fight.

He could not bear to see the girl harmed by Jade-faced Playboy without doing something.

The sudden appearance of Su Mo lit Yang Zhixuan's heart. She cried out with joy.

"Who are you?"

Jade-faced Playboy frowned and looked carefully at the boy before him.

"The one that will kill you," Su Mo said with a freezing voice, without a trace of emotion.

"Haha!"

Having heard what he said, Jade-faced Playboy burst into laughter once more and said scornfully, "You are really a boy who is fearless out of ignorance. How could such rubbish at Lv 1 Spiritual Martial Realm dare to declare to kill me?

"That's all right. Let me kill you first and then I'll enjoy the little beauty."

With a scornful smile, Jade-faced Playboy waved the folding fan in his hand and sharp Genuine Qi chopped toward Su Mo.
