Proud, powerful, and one with her blade, she truly deserves the title of King of Blades.
Wherever the blade passes, heroes bow down.
However, the Blade King is not a hero; the Blade King is a heroine.
Yes, that's right, the Blade King is a woman.
This woman is so powerful that few men dare to pursue her. There have been a few drunken male cultivators who attempted to express their love for her, but none succeeded. However, all the men who once proposed to the Blade King, Mo Wenwei, were able to calm themselves and focus on their cultivation afterward. Within less than a century, they made significant progress in their skills, earning the envy of many.
According to those who had intimate contact with the Blade King, they all practiced the same Cultivation Method: the Sunflower Manual.
This time, to be safe, Wuwei Academy dispatched the Three Great Kings. The Blade King remained on the sidelines, watching the factions fight among themselves. As soon as there was any unusual movement from any faction, she would step in to suppress it.
After Xu Feng escaped, the heroes scattered like birds and beasts. The Gun King and Power King pursued Xu Feng to the Chaotic Sea and did not return for a long time. It wasn't until Hei Bai Zi was killed that the Blade King sensed something was wrong and came to see what had happened.
What awaited her was such an outcome: the Demon Hunter was killed, nearly a hundred disciples were wiped out, and Walker survived only by relying on a Dao Artifact. The culprit left calmly while the two kings were powerless to stop it.
"Is Xu Feng really that black-clad man who used Sword Formation?" the Blade King asked coldly.
Walker hurriedly replied, "Absolutely true. Xu Feng used forty Supreme Flying Swords with immense power; I witnessed it myself." He emphasized Xu Feng's strength to deflect responsibility from himself.
The Blade King also noticed the sword marks on the island and said, "Power King, Gun King, even if Xu Feng used Sword Formation, it shouldn't have been difficult for you to capture him. How could he kill so many people?"
The Gun King sighed bitterly and said, "Xu Feng is exceptionally cunning. He possesses Wings of the Strange Dragon and moves extremely fast underwater; I couldn't catch up to him, which allowed him to escape successfully."
"Luck?" Blade King said, "Why didn't he get lucky and kill you all as well?"
Gun King cursed inwardly but replied, "Blade King, your skills are unparalleled. Capturing Xu Feng will surely not be a problem. We are willing to follow your lead."
Blade King responded, "Gun King, there's no need to provoke me. If we fail to break Shennong Valley this time and end up being defeated by Xu Feng, not only will you face severe punishment, but I will also be criticized harshly." She was the overall leader of this operation.
Power King said, "Since Blade King is here, capturing Xu Feng should be a piece of cake. However, Xu Feng has now gone deep into the Abandoned Sea and has vanished without a trace. It might not be easy to find him." The implication was that with Blade King’s presence, Xu Feng might have already been scared off. If he stayed submerged, there would be nothing they could do.
Blade King instructed, "You need to draw him out; leave the rest to me."
Power King and Gun King both turned their gazes toward Walker. Walker immediately felt weak in the knees and stammered, "I... I... I'm injured. I need to take a leave." It was unclear where he had learned the term "take a leave."
Gun King glared at him angrily, and Walker dared not say another word.
Xu Feng seized the opportunity to kill all the disciples from Wuwei Academy who had entered the sea. Exhausted, he fled back to the Abandoned Sea and flew to a deserted island where he had previously stayed. He did not dare venture out to sea and instead recuperated at the seabed near the island.
The Sword Formation made up of forty Supreme Treasure Swords was capable of killing someone at the Early Stage of Great Achievement. Walker was at his peak in the early stage and would have certainly met his demise if not for his stroke of luck; he possessed a Dao Artifact that significantly increased his power and managed to block Xu Feng's lethal strike.
With too little time to shake off Gun King, Xu Feng did not dare launch a second Sword Formation. After missing his target, he immediately fled.
The forty swords were connected to Xu Feng's mind and were injured after colliding with Walker's Dao Artifact; they needed repairs before they could be used again.
After recuperating underwater for a month, Xu Feng's injuries finally healed completely.
Flying out over the sea, it was deep into the night. The bright moon hung high, and the waves shimmered like silk.
Xu Feng returned to the cave on the deserted island and pulled out the black-and-white figure, Yuan Ying.
The body of Yuan Ying was shot to pieces by Xu Feng's arrow, dying in a pitiful manner, cursing, "Xu Feng, you coward! You dare not confront me directly but use a sneak attack instead. You won't live long; Gun King will find you soon, and you're dead for sure."
Xu Feng replied calmly, "Even if I faced you head-on, I could still sever your head."
Yuan Ying was left speechless. He was on par with Jueqingzi in terms of strength, and when Jueqingzi wielded a Dao Artifact, he was easily beheaded by Xu Feng. In contrast, Yuan Ying would be even more vulnerable.
Xu Feng said, "I want to discuss something with you. If you answer my questions truthfully, I will leave you on this island. Whether you can seize a new body and be reborn is up to you. But if you refuse to answer or dare to deceive me, I will ensure your soul is scattered."
Yuan Ying scoffed, "I have traversed the Xian Dao for many years; how could I submit to you? If you want to kill me, go ahead. I will never betray Wuwei Academy."
"Are you sure you won't cooperate with me?"
"Absolutely not!"
Xu Feng wasn't angry; after all, he could refine him anyway and learn everything.
Refining a Great Perfection Stage cultivator required time and a secure environment. Xu Feng had no home to return to and could only hide in the sea, with plenty of time on his hands.
"I wonder if the people from Wuwei Academy are still around?"
Xu Feng flew towards the Chaotic Sea, searching for traces of Wuwei Academy. Now that his injuries had greatly improved, he fled underwater upon encountering Gun King and Power King, who could not catch up. With Demon Hunter dead, it was impossible for Gun King to find Xu Feng.
At the edge of the Chaotic Sea, Xu Feng discovered Power King and Walker.
After being decisively defeated by Xu Feng, Walker became like a startled bird, wary and unwilling to stray too far from Power King, while Gun King had seemingly vanished.
"It seems Wuwei Academy is still hunting me down. It's no wonder; after killing so many experts from Wuwei Academy, they wouldn't just let me go."
Relying on the speed advantage of Wings of the Strange Dragon, Xu Feng did not take Power King seriously. As long as he could find a way to separate Walker from Power King, he could ambush Walker and inflict serious injury, if not kill him.
After some thought, Xu Feng submerged into the depths of the sea.
Two hours later, the water around Walker suddenly churned as dozens of Transformation Period beasts emerged from the depths, surrounding him completely.
These beasts each possessed the strength to kill those at the Divine Separation Late Stage. While they couldn't defeat Walker in a one-on-one fight, their sheer numbers and the advantage of being in water worked in their favor. As Walker wielded his Dao Artifact, the beasts dared not confront him directly and instead evaded while maintaining a tight perimeter around him, seizing every opportunity to attack with various methods.
The number of beasts continued to grow as flocks of seabirds appeared in the sky, ready to scavenge corpses.
Power King was unaware of what kind of damage Walker had caused; his luck seemed terrible. They were less than ten miles apart, yet those beasts ignored Power King entirely and focused solely on Walker.
Power King charged into the fray and killed several nearby beasts. Urgently, he said, "Walker, retreat back to the Chaotic Sea. I'll hold them off for you."
Walker was more than willing to comply. "Thank you, Power King." He brandished his sword and broke through the encirclement, returning to the waters of the Chaotic Sea.
Power King was leisurely battling the demon beast, a strange smile on his face.
Underwater, Xu Feng released a Sea Demon and said, "Go back. Your parents did well, and I won't harm you." The released Sea Demon expressed its gratitude and quickly swam away.
Walker escaped back to the Chaotic Sea, wiping sweat from his brow as he observed Power King from a distance of hundreds of miles, cursing inwardly, "Damn it, Blade King made me a scapegoat, and even the demon beasts are after me. Is my luck really this bad?"
An arrow-like energy shot up from the seabed, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, aimed to chill Walker to the bone. Demon Hunter had perished under such an arrow energy.
Walker seemed to be prepared; he twisted in mid-air and dodged it.
Xu Feng emerged from the depths, walking on the waves and said, "Walker, quite clever, aren't you?"
Walker replied with a cold smile, "If I weren't clever, wouldn't I end up dead under your arrows? If I weren't clever, how could I lure you out?"
Xu Feng's smile faltered as he thought it was bad news; how could Walker, who had narrowly escaped last time, be so calm now?
At that moment, a blade light suddenly appeared out of nowhere, as if slicing through space, and a beautiful woman with single eyelids stepped out from the rift.
Blade King Mo Wenwei!
The blade light slashed towards Xu Feng, who hurriedly raised his Butcher's Blade, making a desperate block while stepping out with Shadow Step, moving three feet away.
Swish! The blade light descended, cutting the seawater in half and revealing a massive abyss dozens of fathoms deep.
One step back, Xu Feng's vitality surged, his face pale as paper.
Walker had already retreated to the side, gleefully eyeing Xu Feng's Butcher's Blade with greed.
The Blade King looked at Xu Feng with eyes sharp as blades and said, "Not bad. You are the first to survive a strike from me, the Blade King, within the Divine Separation Stage. If it weren't for your excessive killings, I might have taken you as my disciple to inherit my Water Severing Thirteen Blades."
Xu Feng's lips twitched, and he finally couldn't hold back, spitting out a mouthful of blood. It had been an unlucky year; he had always ambushed others, but today he was finally ambushed himself.
Being able to make the Blade King ambush him was somewhat of a glory.
Now, however, Xu Feng's face was not glorious; it was stained with blood.
The Blade King continued, "If such talent is wasted on killing, it would be a pity. I will give you another chance..."
Walker hurriedly interjected, "Blade King, you mustn't..." His unwarranted interruption brought him great misfortune.
"Hmph!" The Blade King swung his hand back and sent Walker flying ten miles away, collapsing onto the sea and spitting blood wildly.
"When did it become your turn to interrupt me?"
The Blade King turned back to speak with Xu Feng again, only to find that Xu Feng had already taken the opportunity during his attack to leap into the sea and escape.
The Blade King sneered, "Thinking of escaping right under my nose? It's not that easy."
Blade King waved her hand, and her delicate wrist, as white as beautiful jade, transformed into a flash of blade light, cutting through the surface of the sea and revealing Xu Feng frantically escaping underwater.
Water Severing Thirteen Blades, indeed capable of severing water!
Xu Feng was running for his life underwater. Seeing the seawater split open with a single stroke, he was terrified, "Oh my God, there are such methods!"
Xu Feng stood alone at the bottom of the sea, like a loach exposed after being dug out of mud, completely revealed.
Xu Feng's aura was completely locked onto by Blade King, leaving no chance for him to shake her off.
Desperately fleeing, Xu Feng could see Blade King leisurely swinging her blade behind him, always within his line of sight.
"I'll give you one more chance. Submit to me, and I will spare your life."
Blade King let out a light laugh, which surprisingly carried a hint of charm.
