No matter what she said, Jiang Han did not hesitate at all. He gently pressed down with his right hand, and the giant sword fell down with his movement. The already shattered space trembled and made a muffled sound.

This time, although the sword tip was not infused with the laws of fusion, the giant sword still carried a terrifying power, suppressing heaven and earth and shaking the void.

Just one glance from Mu Yuan felt as if a giant hand had gripped her throat, making her feel tight and suffocated.

Immediately afterwards, a violent pressure crashed down. Without the protection of their magical artifacts, the two faced the giant sword's pressure head-on with their bare bodies. Their bodies tensed up, and they were almost crushed into the ground.

There was nothing she could do to stop her, nothing she could hide from; she had exhausted all means, and she couldn't even escape.

"Early stage of Nascent Soul... Hah, is this really the early stage of Nascent Soul?"

Mu Yuan trembled all over, his mind filled with despair, so despair that he was almost driven mad.

She wasn't someone who clung to life or feared death, but she didn't want to die so easily, so ignominiously.

Before coming here, she had made thorough preparations, including restricting Jiang Han's magic, trapping and killing enemies, and having Qing Yu waiting outside to ensure her safety.

After the meeting, regardless of whether Jiang Han agrees to go back with her to see Senior Brother Jun, as long as she fulfills her responsibility, it would be best if he agrees, but if he doesn't, she only needs to fight him. Whether she wins or loses, she can go back and report.

But now, all her preparations have been rendered useless, and all her methods have been easily crushed by the other party.

Qingyu, who had the best escape skills, was seriously injured and unconscious. Even her own life was about to be carelessly given up here.

Mu Yuan was filled with despair, not knowing how to escape. The two of them had already used up all their trump cards, and even their beast-taming abilities couldn't withstand a single sword strike from the opponent.

Even if you speak humbly and say all the nice things, the other party still refuses to pay attention, as if all your struggles are in vain.

If only Senior Brother Jun were here...

Thinking of this, her eyes widened slightly, and she suddenly saw a new hope.

Yes, Senior Brother Jun. Senior Brother Jun is determined to win over Jiang Han, so he would never have sent only the two of them. Senior Brother must be watching this place from somewhere.

If that's the case, Senior Brother Jun would never stand by and watch them die here!

With renewed hope, Mu Yuan disregarded everything else and shouted loudly into the sky:

"Senior Brother Jun, save me! Jiang Han is about to kill me! Please, Senior Brother Jun, save me!"

Her voice, through a unique rhythm, quickly spread tens of thousands of miles, and through the flowers and grasses of distant lands, it spread even further afield.

Although she couldn't sense it, she knew that Senior Brother Jun must be nearby, not too far away. As long as Senior Brother Jun could make a move, he would definitely be able to save them from Jiang Han.

As expected, no sooner had she finished speaking than a violent and domineering blade of light swept across an endless distance and slashed down.

Swah——

The blade light was extremely fast, like lightning slicing through the night sky, covering thousands of miles in a flash. Its momentum was violent, distorting large areas of space along its path. The earth and mountains collapsed and shattered in an instant, turning into a long trail of ruins.

boom--!

The blade struck first, carrying the force to shake mountains and shatter peaks, and slammed heavily onto the giant sword.

The greatsword was struck by immense force, with thick laws and lightning within it canceling and eroding each other out. Even so, this strike only caused the greatsword to tremble slightly and pause briefly before continuing its downward slash.

But this moment of trembling gave Mu Yuan an opportunity. He gritted his teeth and activated his primordial spirit power, bursting out with green light and breaking free from the giant sword's aura lock.

In an instant, her figure transformed into a streak of green light, enveloped in the blue rain, and rushed to the land thousands of miles away. She merged into the flowers and grass and fled for thousands of miles, eventually joining a figure that descended from the sky.

The three reunited. Mu Yuan, having survived the ordeal, trembled as he expressed his gratitude:

"Thank you, thank you so much, Senior Brother Xiao, for saving my life."

She almost died!

Who would have thought that a junior from the lower realm who had just entered the Nascent Soul stage would almost capture both of them?

Fortunately, everything is over. Senior Brother Xiao is a genius in the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, whose strength far surpasses that of the two of them. With Senior Brother here, if Jiang Han dares to make a move again, he will surely experience his first defeat after reaching the Nascent Soul realm.

Thinking of this, she hurriedly reminded him: "Senior Brother Xiao, be careful. This boy is ruthless and merciless, every move is deadly and leaves no room for mercy. Moreover, he doesn't care about the relationship between the sects at all. Senior Brother, please don't be deceived by his kind appearance."

This kid doesn't look like a bloodthirsty person, but once he starts fighting, he's like a madman, almost killing her in one or two moves.

"I understand. You treat Qingyu's injuries first, and I'll take care of the rest," Senior Brother Xiao nodded in reply.

After speaking, he stepped forward with one hand holding the knife, his steady eyes meeting Jiang Han's from afar, his gaze filled with barely concealed surprise.

Although he had acted hastily and did not use any magic, his strike just now was still a strike from the mid-stage of the Nascent Soul realm, while his opponent was only at the initial stage of the Nascent Soul realm.

According to his expectations, this strike should at least cut the giant sword in half.

In reality, he only made the giant sword tremble slightly, barely helping his two junior sisters break free from the opponent's aura lock, without causing much damage.

If it weren't for Junior Sister Mu's quick reaction and seizing that moment to escape, he probably wouldn't have been able to save her.

"It's a pleasure to meet you. I am Xiao Yue, and you are Jiang Han, a fellow Daoist from the Zixiao Sword Sect."

Jiang Han met his gaze from afar, then with a flick of his wrist, the ten-thousand-foot-long sword transformed back into a three-foot-long blade, which he grasped in his hand, and replied:

"So it's Fellow Daoist Xiao. You've been watching from the shadows for quite some time now, and you've finally decided to come out."

He had long noticed that many people were spying on him. Those gazes were made without any attempt to conceal themselves, clearly indicating that they thought his cultivation level was too low to detect their presence, which was why they were so brazen.

The auras of those spying individuals varied in strength, and those few at the very back, whose gazes could only be faintly detected, must have been the seven disciples who had just transcended the tribulation. If it weren't for his keen senses, he probably wouldn't have been able to detect their presence at all.

As for the others who were weaker than the other seven, they were Xiao Yue and three other mid-stage Nascent Soul cultivators whose auras were similar.

These people weren't particularly skilled at concealment; he could roughly pinpoint their location with his divine sense, but he couldn't pinpoint their exact location.

Xiao Yue was initially startled, not expecting the other party's divine sense to be so strong that they had already discovered his whereabouts.

But he quickly breathed a sigh of relief; after all, he was a genius, so it was only natural that his spiritual sense was stronger.

Since the other party is willing to talk to him, they must also be willing to reconcile, so it shouldn't escalate to the point of fighting to the death.
