Chapter 361 - 361 | Counterattack?
Before Jia Lei Shan could understand what happened, he suddenly felt his body getting lighter and drowsy.
By the time he reached the ground - Jia Lei Shan had breathed his last.
*paak!*
*thud*
His body and his head were separated in a clean strike.
Everyone was shocked by this sudden change.
"That's the Clan Head of Jia Lei Clan!" One of the guards close to the corpse whispered.
However, in the silence, his voice was loudest.
Many took a deep breath after hearing those words.
Clan Head of one of the top clans - Dead!
This was the second death of a Clan Head in the last few minutes!
Everyone turned their heads towards the person who killed Clan Head Jie Lai Shan. To their surprise, it was a disciple from the Gracious Sword Sect!
'Wasn't this the disciple that old man wanted?'
'And that pressure…'
Many were confused about what they had suddenly witnessed, but for some - this was more shocking than the death of Jia Lei Shan.
"Sword Intent!" Two words exploded in Jun Xie's mind.
'This guy has a Sword Intent!'
'How the fuck- wait - it's the same!'
His breathing quickened as he joined one thing with the other - 'This aura was the same as Fang Chen, which he revealed in the Banquet a month ago!'
'But this is Kai Yang? How do both of them have the same aura!?'
…
In one of the alleys -
Yuan Shuchun had a similar shocked expression.
She, too, had identified the aura that suppressed everyone for a moment - it was the same as the one which a disciple in the banquet had revealed.
'But this one's more powerful - did he breakthrough?' She was confused, 'O no wait - this is Kai Yang - how could he have the same aura as that disciple.'
'Fang Chen was his name… don't tell me… Kai Yang is Fang Chen!? What the hell is going on?'
…
'That was Sword intent?' The guard was also frowning.
'Looks like I will have to be serious for a moment - but I couldn't identify his Sword Intent realm - looking at his age, he will at most be in the Sword Intent Manifestation Realm…'
He readied himself for the attack.
Even though he was a Core Formation Realm cultivator - if the enemy had Sword Intent, then even he needed to be careful and cautious.
'First, let's assess his power.'
"Why have you stopped?" The guard then suddenly shouted, "Kill them!"
The guard looked at each other for a second and moved for the attack.
Three guards jumped on Jun Xie and cut him into two!
Another three stabbed Fu Kai to death!
At the same time, few others attacked Ye Tian Yun and beheaded him!
But before the guards could rejoice, the guard near the carriage suddenly shouted - "It's an illusion!"
Unfortunately, he was too late, and the guards were already lost in the dreams.
Soon bodies plopped down as they fell to their death - not even knowing what killed them.
"Dumb fucks!" The guard gritted his teeth and began striking the enemies.
Just then - the ground suddenly lit up, and to everyone's shock - spikes suddenly appeared from the ground!
"Get back!" The guard gritted his teeth and flew in the air.
"Ah!"
"No!!!"
"Ugh!"
Many more guards died, but a few of them were able to survive this ambush.
"Fuck!"
Fu Kai suddenly shouted as a spear passed right through his foot!
"Damn, where did this array come from?"Jun Xie gritted his teeth, and together with Ye Tian Yun, he pulled Fu Kai to safety.
As they got back, the ground was now divided into two sides -
In the sky, the Core Formation Realm guard stared down at them, assessing everything on the ground to locate any more hidden arrays. And below him, on the ground, were the remaining guards of Ao Ba Clan.
Unfortunately, they were not as motivated as the guard in the sky and were staring at the front in pure horror.
In front of them was the corpse of Ao Ba Ho, who had led this attack, cut into two halves.
The spear that came out from the ground right between his legs and then went past through his head, cutting his body into two parts and giving an instant death!
The guard looked at the corpse in disdain for a moment and then focused on the targets.
Just as he was about to launch himself on them - two people jumped from behind and stood in front of the injured Fu Kai.
Jun Xie let out a relief when seeing the two - something that he had never thought he would feel.
These two were Yuan Shuchun and Xiao Ming.
"Sorry for the delay, but I was waiting for the right time." Yuan Shuchun said.
Fu Kai clenched his teeth to overcome the pain, "It's alright, but next time, at least tell us about such a thing first."
"Hmph!" Suddenly, the guard in the sky grunted and said, "There are no more arrays - kill them!"
The Ao Ba Clan guards took a deep breath and went straight towards the enemy - jumping over the dead bodies and spears erected from the ground.
"Kai Yang, try to hold that guard back as much as you can. Peak Master Duan will be here soon," Yuan Shuchun said and went for the attack.
She was clearly referring to him about the Sword Intent he had just released.
Unfortunately, it didn't seem like Ye Tian Yun had heard her words - he was staring on the ground with a blank look in his eyes.
Jun Xie, who was also about to follow Yuan Shuchun and Xiao Ming, noticed this and jerked Ye Tian Yun's shoulders, "What happened!?"
But Ye Tian Yun gave him no response.
Before Jun Xie could do anything else, the Ao Ba Clan guards had already reached them.
"I will handle him - you go!" Fu Kai suddenly shouted and stumbled closer to Ye Tian Yun.
Jerking Ye Tian Yun's shoulders, Fu Kai began to shout in his ears.
"Wake up! What happened to you all of a sudden?"
