"Oh, just you? An existence as insignificant as an ant. Since you seek death, I will grant it to you." Li Kun narrowed his eyes, and a pressure like a mountain emanated from him. Both of them felt a difficulty in breathing.
Ren Pingsheng, fortunately, managed to maintain his composure. However, Chu Yanran could not; her face turned pale, and she looked like she was about to collapse. Ren Pingsheng stepped forward and stood in front of her. He drew his sword slightly, and a sharp aura emerged, countering the oppressive force.
"This is..." His gaze narrowed as he recognized the concept. This was clearly Artistic Conception. For someone of his cultivation level, Artistic Conception was not unfamiliar; many had comprehended it. He had also grasped some aspects of Artistic Conception, but he never expected that Ren Pingsheng's manifestation of it would be much deeper than his own understanding.
"Thank you, Ren Brother!" Chu Yanran finally regained her composure, though she still looked shaken.
"When I let you run later, head west. I will hold him off for a moment before pursuing you," Ren Pingsheng said quietly without looking back.
"But this is a Martial Master! Ren Brother, won't you be in danger?"
"Don't worry. I may not be able to win, but I can escape. Didn't I manage to get out of the Demon Beast horde back then?" His tone was filled with confidence, perhaps to reassure her.
"Alright then, but you must follow me! I'll wait for you!" Chu Yanran nodded, looking at the not-so-tall figure in front of her with a strange expression.
"You're somewhat capable, but it's still not enough; you're far from it!" Li Kun returned to his expressionless demeanor, and a longsword appeared in his hand. With a light slash, a fierce wind howled. Sword Qi rained down like arrows.
"Stay back! Slash!" Ren Pingsheng shouted angrily as he drew his sword. A Wind Dragon appeared in the forest, tearing apart and swallowing countless Sword Qi. However, it too was weakened and eventually dissipated completely. A small portion of Sword Qi still fell down, but by that time, Ren Pingsheng had already evaded.
Then suddenly, twelve figures appeared in a blur. Twelve Sword Qi shot forth like lightning towards Li Kun in the center.
"Good Sword Technique!" Li Kun rarely praised anyone but did so now. He waved his longsword in a circular motion; the twelve Sword Qi encountered an obstacle and struggled to advance even slightly.
"Break for me!" The twelve figures merged into one, and a thicker Sword Qi flashed through the air towards Li Kun. Those watching were astonished; they never expected this guy's strength to be so formidable that he could both attack and defend against a Martial Master without yielding an inch.
"Ren Brother's strength is amazing!" Chu Yanran's eyes sparkled, and her face turned slightly red. For a moment, she forgot that she was in a dangerous situation.
"Run quickly!" While she was still in a daze, she suddenly heard Ren Pingsheng shout at her, and she immediately reacted. With a quick movement, she fled towards the west. The members of the Evil Sect were all distracted by Ren Pingsheng and did not notice her escape. By the time they reacted and prepared to chase after her, it was too late.
"Boom!" A violent explosion shook them, causing them to freeze in place as smoke and dust filled the air, trees toppled, and leaves scattered everywhere. They lost all sense of direction and didn't even know where to chase.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ren Pingsheng swiftly moved to follow.
"You brat, where do you think you're going?" A figure shot through the smoke like lightning, already closing in on him.
"Hmph!" He snorted coldly and swung his sword again. Countless golden lights gathered, turning the entire sword into gold. An endless sharpness radiated from it. This was his first time fully activating the Golden Realm, and he had also infused a hint of Sword Momentum into it. True Qi surged into the sword like a tide, consuming nearly half of it in an instant.
This strike was indescribable; it was as if the sun in the sky emitted Sword Qi that permeated everywhere. Everyone felt as if countless Sword Qi and sharpness were rushing towards them. If they did not resist, it seemed that in the next moment, they would all be pierced through.
In the void, traces lingered for a long time before dissipating, while the Sword Qi had already moved far away.
"This is bad!" Li Kun's eyes were filled with this Sword Light, his expression serious. He swung his Longsword a few times, unleashing bright Sword Qi like fire that surged forth with equal momentum, intertwining and dissipating with the golden Sword Qi.
The other Disciples of the Evil Sect screamed in horror. The golden Sword Qi had only leaked a small portion of its power but made it difficult for them to resist; one by one, they fled in madness.
"Phew... they should be fine now." Ren Pingsheng let out a weak sigh of relief and turned to leave. However, at that moment, a figure charged out from the Sword Light—it was Li Kun. His clothes were tattered with many holes, but he only had some superficial wounds.
"You brat, you better not get away!" he shouted angrily. This incident had caused him great embarrassment. Not only did he fail to capture anyone personally, but he also lost several disciples.
"Poof..." Ren Pingsheng felt the force of this strike was too fierce. Even though he wore Thousand Silk Armor, he felt his organs shake and his vision darken. He heard a crack from his ribs and could no longer hold back a mouthful of blood.
"Kill!" Ren Pingsheng, who was knocked back by a sword strike, suddenly vanished. He appeared in an instant beside the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master, thrusting his sword without hesitation.
The Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master, also a Perfect Realm Warrior, had just been severely injured by Ren Pingsheng's powerful strike, and now seeing Ren Pingsheng charging at him, he looked terrified.
"Elder Li, save me!" At that moment, he felt the threat of death and desperately called for help while trying to fend off Ren Pingsheng's attack.
"Damn it!" Li Kun immediately turned and rushed over. The Young Master of the Evil Sect could not die; he had worked hard to achieve his current status. If this guy died, he would surely face dire consequences as well, with no place to hide.
"Hehe... Slash!" Ren Pingsheng let out a hoarse laugh, transforming his thrust into a slash with his Longsword. The Young Master of the Evil Sect, caught off guard, screamed as he was sent flying.
"Die!" Li Kun, arriving in anger, swung his sword fiercely, determined to slay Ren Pingsheng.
Ren Pingsheng merely smiled lightly and vanished in a flash. At the same time, a streak of Sword Qi shot forward, directly targeting the distant and uncertain fate of the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master.
"You dare!" His face changed dramatically as he turned his sword to slash at the Sword Qi. He couldn't gamble with the life of the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master. Seizing this opportunity, Ren Pingsheng flickered several times and disappeared into the distance.
Li Kun glared hatefully but did not dare to pursue. Instead, he turned back to check on the distant fate of the Heavenly Evil Sect Young Master.
After fleeing far to the west, Chu Yanran stopped anxiously. She kept looking back to see if there was any sign of Ren Pingsheng. She had just witnessed the power of a Martial Master Realm Martial Artist, so she was naturally very worried about him.
"Please don't let anything happen!" she thought of that figure in green and kept praying.
"Cough cough... You’re still here; hurry and leave. That guy might come after you," Ren Pingsheng finally appeared, though his form was swaying slightly. It was clear he was at his limit; he had sustained serious injuries earlier.
"Ah, Ren Brother, you’re back! Are you hurt?" Seeing him, Chu Yanran was filled with excitement. However, upon noticing his pale face and continuous coughing up blood, she was immediately startled.
"It's okay, let's leave here first." He shook his head, knowing it wasn't safe yet. With such serious injuries, if someone were to catch up with them, it would be disastrous.
"I... I'll help you." Chu Yanran said, her face slightly flushed as she supported Ren Pingsheng's arm with her delicate hands. A unique fragrance wafted from her, but Ren Pingsheng was in no condition to indulge in any thoughts. The two of them left at a steady pace.
"Ren Brother, you mustn't be in trouble!" In a cave, Chu Yanran looked anxiously at the already unconscious Ren Pingsheng. They had moved far from their previous location. However, after half a day's escape, Ren Pingsheng could no longer hold on and fell into a coma.
"Sigh, I hope you wake up soon." She fed Ren Pingsheng some healing elixir and sat beside him in a daze, gazing at his profile with a somewhat absent expression.
This was the first time someone had risked everything to save her. Although her status was considered noble and she rarely encountered danger, this time she felt a stir in her heart and had some unusual thoughts. She wanted to know why this man would go so far as to risk his life for her. Now he lay heavily injured and unconscious.
The cave was quiet; it was deep into the night, and the Nanyun Forest had come alive with the roars of demon beasts. Many were fighting fiercely. This place had completely become a paradise for demon beasts. Yet the cave remained silent, without a flicker of firelight.
The night in Nanyun Forest was too dangerous, especially now that she was with an injured Ren Pingsheng. Even though Chu Yanran was afraid of the dark, she refrained from making a fire and instead stayed close to Ren Pingsheng, as if that made her feel safer.
After an unknown amount of time, Ren Pingsheng slowly woke up. At that moment, he realized he had lost consciousness during their escape. Looking around, he found himself in a cave with dim lighting. Just as he was about to get up, he noticed something unusual about his body.
Turning his head slightly, he discovered that Chu Yanran was sleeping against him. He was somewhat surprised but recalled the continuous battles and escapes they had endured; perhaps she was simply exhausted!
Ren Pingsheng looked at her pale face and her quiet sleeping posture resembling that of a small cat, and couldn't help but smile; his mood improved considerably.
"Well then, since I'm seriously injured this time, I might as well take the opportunity to recover." After watching her for a while, he closed his eyes and began to circulate his True Qi to heal himself. Although the Thousand Silk Armor had blocked most of Li Kun's attacks, some of the True Qi had entered his body and caused significant damage. His meridians and viscera were both severely injured. These could only be slowly nurtured back to health through True Qi.
