Chapter 1210: Might of the Saintess

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Liu Zhen’er was the personal disciple of the Assassin Alliance’s Alliance Master, Jiang Guanchao. She was ranked fifth and was good at Gu poison and hidden weapons. Her weapon was a soft sword.

Even the blade of her sword was poisonous.

The moment she brandished her sword and stabbed at the Saintess, the Saintess acutely smelled a familiar aura.

She put away the white silk and clasped her wrist with one hand. She bent inward and slapped the hilt of the sword.

The two of them took a few steps back.

Liu Zhen’er looked at her sword and then at the Saintess. She asked strangely, “You’re actually fine?”

The Saintess was an expert user of Gu.

If she could not even defend against this bit of Gu poison, she would not be the Saintess.

Liu Zhen’er’s eyes flickered as she shot a few hidden weapons at the Saintess.

The Saintess flipped her finger and shot out a silver needle, sending her hidden weapon flying.

To be taken in as a personal disciple by the Assassin Alliance’s Alliance Master, Liu Zhen’er’s foundation and talent were excellent. Not many people of the same generation could defeat her.

Unfortunately, her methods happened to be what the Saintess was good at.

In addition, the Saintess had absorbed Elder Feng’s internal energy, so it would not be so easy for her to defeat the Saintess.

The two of them exchanged more than ten moves in an instant.

Liu Zhen’er did not gain much from the Saintess.

Liu Zhen’er frowned and muttered, “This is the first time I’ve encountered someone with similar methods…”

On the other side, Wei Xu had temporarily finished infusing Su Xuan with internal force.

Wei Xu said to the three of them, “We have to return to the Hundred Flowers Palace before dark and hand him over to Xiaoxiao.”

The three of them nodded.

Wei Xu took out the hook knife and rope hidden in the grass. “Get ready to go down the mountain. Little Six, carry Xuan’er.” Wei Liulang said, “Okay!”

He glanced down the cliff and trembled.

It was so high!

“Phew!”

He took a deep breath.

“Why don’t I do it?” Wei Ting asked. Wei Liulang said seriously, “You’re injured. Let me do it!”

JingYi said, “Actually, I can…”

The two brothers said in unison, “Shut up, child!”

Wei Xu went down to test the way first. He chiseled the stone with a hook knife and hung the rope before letting them get down one by one.

Their goal today was to save Wei Liulang and Su Xuan. They would think about how they would deal with the Assassin Alliance when they returned.

Wei Xu said, “You have to act quickly. Su Xuan’s injuries can’t be delayed.”

The three of them exchanged glances and agreed solemnly. “Got it.”

On the cliff, Liu Zhen’er saw that they were about to escape from the cliff and immediately blew the bone whistle in her hand.

Just as she was about to blow the whistle a second time, the Saintess shattered the bone whistle with a whip!

Liu Zhen’er’s hand was also whipped until her skin split open.

“Damn it!”

Liu Zhen’er gritted her teeth and glared fiercely at the Saintess.

The Saintess stepped on her chest and kicked her away heavily.

However, she did not fall to the ground. Instead, she was caught by Fourth Senior Brother, who rushed over in time.

Fourth Brother landed steadily on the ground with her.

“Are you okay?” Fourth Brother asked.

Liu Zhen’er took a few deep breaths. “I’m fine. This woman is very strange. I’ve never seen her on the island before!”

Fourth Brother said coldly, “I’ll deal with her!”

Fourth Brother pulled out the Ring-Headed Saber and threw away the scabbard. He took a step into the air and slashed down at the Saintess.

The Saintess lashed out.

Who would have thought that her silk rope would be cut off by Fourth Senior Brother’s Ring-Head Saber!

The Saintess dodged to the side and Fourth Senior Brother slashed over!

The Saintess leaned back, her slender waist bending into an unbelievable arc.

Then, she raised her leg and kicked Fourth Senior Brother’s wrist. This was the first time Fourth Brother had seen someone so agile.

“Fourth Senior Brother, let’s attack together!”

Liu Zhen’er also joined the fight.

However, to their surprise, this woman could actually fight them to a draw alone.

Fourth Brother said, “She is exhausting more energy than us. She won’t be able to last long.”

“Yes!”

Liu Zhen’er nodded.

However, they had clearly underestimated the Saintess’s strength. The Saintess did not want to defeat them at all and deliberately dealt with them. If she could dodge, she would do so. She would not use her ultimate move to exhaust her stamina.

Fourth Brother sensed that something was wrong. “She’s stalling for time! If this continues, Rakshasa will escape!”

“Senior Brother, I’ll seal her retreat!”

Liu Zhen’er somersaulted behind the Saintess.

The two of them attacked from both sides, forcing the Saintess to the edge of the cliff.

The Saintess suddenly took out a white cloth and wrapped it around Liu Zhen’er’s neck. She jumped and hung Liu Zhen’er from the tree.

Fourth Brother’s expression changed. “Junior Sister!”

The Saintess stretched out her left hand and mercilessly reached for Liu Zhen’er’s heart!

Just as her heart was about to explode, a majestic figure suddenly flew over and sent the Saintess flying with a palm!

The veins in the Saintess’s body seemed to been severed inch by inch in an instant. Pain came from her limbs and bones, and blood surged to her throat. She fell heavily to the ground, as blood flowed from her seven orifices!

Cough, cough, cough!

Liu Zhen’er fell down and hurriedly pulled off the white silk wrapped around her neck. She coughed violently.

Fourth Brother looked at the person and his expression changed. “Master!”

The person who came was none other than the Alliance Master of the Assassin Alliance, Jiang Guanchao!

Jiang Guanchao, who was dressed in black, looked coldly at the Saintess, who was lying on the ground and twitching. “So she’s a puppet.”

Fourth Brother came to Jiang Guanchao’s side and said in surprise, “She’s a puppet? How can…”

Jiang Guanchao said calmly, “Only the Hundred Flowers Palace can make such a perfect puppet.’

Fourth Senior Brother asked, “Is it someone from the Hundred Flowers

Palace?”

Jiang Guanchao looked at the Saintess. “Not necessarily.”

Fourth Brother said, “Since she’s a puppet, there’s no value in interrogating her. Master, I’ll kill her!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he raised it and stabbed the Saintess’s heart.

However, the moment he attacked, Jiang Guanchao’s eyes turned cold as he pulled him back!

At the same time, he stretched out his other hand and slapped Wei Xu, who had jumped to the top of the cliff!

Jiang Guanchao looked at Wei Xu deeply. “It’s you?”

The Saintess vomited blood and could not move.

Wei Xu ignored the river and pushed the Saintess off the cliff.

The Saintess looked at the gradually disappearing sky in a daze, waiting for her fate of death and abandonment.

Unexpectedly, as her body sank, she was grabbed by Wei Ting and Jing Yi.

Jing Yi took out the rope he had prepared and tied her firmly to his back. Jiang Guanchao looked at Wei Xu. “General Wei, how have you been?”

Wei Xu had guessed his identity and was not surprised that he knew him.

When the Alliance Master of the Assassin Alliance did business with Zong Zhengming, it was impossible for him not to have seen him before.

Wei Xu said with a cold gaze, “I originally wanted to settle the score with the Assassin Alliance another day. Since we met today, I’ll settle the old and new scores together!”

Jiang Guanchao sneered. “Looks like you’ve guessed who I am. However, don’t tell me you really think you’re my match?”

Wei Xu said arrogantly, “No one is a match for me.”

Jiang Guanchao looked up at the sky and laughed. “How arrogant. I like it! Back then, I wanted to fight you at Broken North Pass. Unfortunately, you were poisoned. I don’t like to take advantage of others. Why don’t you let me experience your ability today? On account that it wasn’t easy for you to climb up, I’ll only use 50% of my strength against you. I believe you lost a lot of internal strength to save my rascal disciple.. How about that?”
