Chapter 557: Silver Moon Swordsmen (IV)

Orange Moon hadn’t forgotten! She erupted with a massive boom, sending thousands of strands of spider silk through the void. Of course she hadn’t forgotten. As a fellow Silver Moon martial master, she was all too familiar with their style.

Who would’ve thought that open hostility would rage in the blink of an eye?

As spider silk shot through the air, Black Widow roared, “She’s not fully recovered yet, kill her!”

The pirate and Buddha Mountain representative immediately brought ruthless moves to bear. Their combined efforts created a gap in Light Sword’s barrage. Orange Moon shouted and soared into the air, sending out thousands more sword strokes that resembled spider silk. She looked like she was about to kill Light Sword, but her moves drifted away in a flurry.

The woman was gone, vanished on the spot. As a Silver Moon martial master and one who used to be part of the thirty-six, she had her own way of survival—although people liked to say that she’d earned her place through her looks. When Earthturner Sword and the others chose to counterattack, she knew that their optimal chance of victory had just slipped through their fingers!

The attackers weren’t all from one faction, after all. None of them were willing to truly put their best efforts on the line as they also schemed against each other at the same time. How would they stand a chance now that they were being cut down one by one?

Hence, she chose to run!

Orange Moon had vanished from public sight. Light Sword frowned, expecting the decision and flicked a glance at Earthturner Sword and Li Hao not too far away. She didn’t give chase, continuing to focus on the two panicking peak Novas.

Those two were losing their minds as Black Widow had fled and left them behind!

......

On Li Hao’s side.

He faced three late Novas—one from Yama, Celestial, and someone else he didn’t recognize. The two from the three great organizations were easy to recognize. He ignored the happenings in the other directions and slashed out with five auras melded together. The three powerhouses also brought their best to defend, explosions rang out continuously!

The young man was plainly a bit worse off as he faced three by himself, but he didn’t care. He wasn’t afraid of being hurt or even breaking an arm or a leg. He deployed the Weeping Willow Sword as the overview for his techniques, enveloping the three and not giving them a chance to escape.

Gentle and unyielding, Li Hao forced the three into ferocious counterattacks and unceasing roars. Sword light swept through the North Sea! The young man was the weakest of the trio, but his sword methods were the most cutting. His moves looked mild, but every one of them was lethal.

Hong Yitang carried himself with the same vast and magnificent style as before, suppressing the two in metamorphosis. They howled with the indignity of their circumstances.

“How dare you try to kill me, Hong Yitang?!” Near River’s general director shouted to the heavens. “You will not be able to bear the consequences if I die here!”

BOOM!

A sword came down over his head, so oppressive that it nearly forced the man to explode. Fan Chang roared and hacked wildly with his blade. The other swept his spear around and didn’t say much. No amount of intimidation or threats was useful at this point. Fan Chang had occupied a lofty position for so long that he’d forgotten this point.

Silver Moon martial masters didn’t care about verbal bluster and didn’t even converse much with people. They often talked only after killing their opponent—they struck up conversations with corpses.

Of the three, no, four battlefields, Light Sword was the first to finish her fights. Her sword qi shot up to the heavens as it illuminated the vicinity. She cut down the Duke of Sea Pacification of the North Sea pirates with one stroke.

“I am the brother of the Buddha Mountain lord...” the remaining survivor was forced to protest. His elder brother was the mountain’s lord! One of the premier powerhouses of the world! Thê source of this content n/o/v/(el)bi((n))

Light Sword finished her sword sweep and crushed his head.

Li Hao inclined his head and frowned slightly, quickly revealing a smile again. So what?

“Black Widow and the other guy in metamorphosis got away...” he said with regret after a look around.

“I let her go on purpose!” Light Sword sighed deeply in the middle of a coughing fit.

Li Hao blinked.

“She is a Silver Moon martial master and one of the thirty-six...” Light Sword elaborated after a few seconds of silence. “That’s why I didn’t want to hunt her down.”

Li Hao’s brows furrowed, but he didn’t say anything.

“We might not be able to kill her even if we catch up to her,” Hong Yitang smoothed things over. “She was a martial master back in the day and is aware of our methods. She’s also one of Ying Hongyue’s most treasured subordinates, her strength is not to be underestimated. She might have some ultimate moves that she’s yet to pull out of her sleeve.

“It’s rather Fan Chang who surprised me with such an explosive treasure. I don’t know where he found it—it could’ve easily blown up regular peak Novas!”

“None of that is worth much, it’s more important that Martial Uncle Hong’s strength can no longer be concealed!” Li Hao said with regret.

“I don’t mind and don’t want to hide it,” Hong Yitang chuckled. “There’s been a lack of enemies to force my full strength over the years. Those who could’ve are dead, which contributes to the lack of general knowledge about me. It doesn’t mean that I’m afraid of anything!”

Panther swam in from the distance.

“Forget it, it’s all the same.” Li Hao looked around him. “There are actually some more heavyweights in the surroundings, they’re just watching from afar. Some of them have probably seen the results and are running. We can’t keep this under wraps! C’mon, let’s go find a quiet place to heal the two of you. I need to recover as well!”

“Your five auras sword technique... is not bad!” Hong Yitang complimented.

“It’s just stitched together.” Li Hao shook his head with a smile.

The man understood. Stitching together meant that the young man hadn’t truly successfully melded them as one. Even so, he had the ability to kill late Novas. It was apparent from that that the Five Auras Sword had great potential.

“That’s good! That means there’s enormous potential to be uncovered!”

Li Hao had been a bit dejected—he suddenly smiled at this and nodded. Hong Yitang was the best at comforting people!

Three humans and a dog vanished on the spot. Panther didn’t forget to clean up the battlefield. It was very worried at the moment—it could vaguely recall a few things, like changing and almost eating someone. It was worried Li Hao would send it away, there would be nothing good to eat then!

Therefore, it was particularly diligent in its duties.

It wasn’t until long after the group had vanished that people came by to investigate the battlefield. Sword qi crisscrossed in the air and some Novas were even injured by the lingering qi.

“The swordsmen of Silver Moon... are terrifying!” someone sighed after a long while.

The world was about to change again. Silver Moon martial masters were appearing one after another and each stronger than the previous. The situation was too much and too flustering to make a proper response to.
