Chapter 1930: “Explosive Face Slap (22)”
Gu Xin Yan stared blankly before her, completely in a daze. Everyone was battling and only she was the lone person that everyone had seemingly missed out.
No one attacked her. It was as if everyone had forgotten about her entirely.
Within all that chaos, two figures hid silently in the shadows, watching excitedly at the bloody and gory scene before their eyes.
“Jun Xie, Jun Wu, Jun Wu Xie….. So, it’s all just you, Jun Wu Xie….. You really astound me.” Gu Ying said as he stood in the dark shadows, watching Gu Yi being pushed back till there was no other place to retreat into, and his eyes filled up with mirth.
“Young Lord, aren’t you going to make any moves?” Following behind Gu Ying, the black robed man asked softly.
From the moment that the battle started, Gu Ying had already been there at the battlefield, but he had absolutely no intention of showing himself.
“Why should I make any moves? I don’t know how long I’ve waited for this moment but it’s just that Jun Wu Xie has done what I would have wanted to do myself. Since someone is doing it for me, why shouldn’t I just sit back and enjoy the show?” Gu Ying asked with an eyebrow slightly raised.
“But Young Lord, weren’t you thinking to protect Gu Xin Yan?” The black robed man asked, not understanding completely.
Gu Ying instead shook his head as he looked at Gu Xin Yan who was standing there in a daze, and the mirth in his eyes flashed with a hint of gentleness.
“Can’t you see it already? Right from the beginning, Jun Wu Xie has had no intention of striking Gu Xin Yan at all. Although it’s true that that fella is here for revenge, she has not lost her mind so completely as to want to obliterate everything.” Gu Ying said with a soft laugh. Jun Wu Xie’s revenge seemed to be highly vicious, but when one observed carefully, one would notice that the targets that Jun Wu Xie’s underlings attacked had coincidentally missed out on some of the younger and naive youths. Although there was no lack of evil minded and malicious scoundrels within the Twelve Palaces, there were still some idiots who were simple and kind of thought. Regardless whether it was Lord Meh Meh, the Sacrificial Blood Rabbit of the Lower Realm’s army, all of them would subconsciously avoid those kind hearted morons, where they would injure them at most, but never taking their lives. It was all those evil and malicious men who owed deeply in debts of blood who were mercilessly slaughtered, never sparing them till they’ve breathed their last.
The way Jun Wu Xie was dealing with this, made Gu Ying think it highly interesting. He had thought that with her embarking on such a maniacal journey of vengeance, she would have abandoned all differentiation between good and evil, never thinking that though the lass was incredibly sly and crafty, her heart still clearly distinguished between good and bad.
So very interesting.
“If it was me, I would not have been so kind and benevolent like her, and not a single person would walk out of the place alive today.” Gu Ying said as he rubbed at his chin thoughtfully, the brilliantly red flowing blood causing the bloodthirstiness in his eyes to boil incessantly. He yearned to go out there, reaping the lives of everyone, to let the warm touch of blood flowing quell the excitement he was feeling in his heart.
The black robed man stood behind Gu Ying, seeing in surprise the boiling murder in Gu Ying’s eyes, and he could not help but shiver.
A youth that so highly dangerous, and the Lord of the Temple truly want him to remain in the Spirit Void Temple?
Gu Ying’s gaze then slowly turned to fall upon Gu Yi who was sporting injuries in quite a few places. He had never thought that Jun Wu Xie would actually be able to push Gu Yi back into such a state with that strange suit of armour. Judging from the injuries on Gu Yi, it would seem like he was becoming less and less able to stand up to Jun Wu Xie’s attacks.
Gu Ying’s eyes narrowed as he stared at the suit of armour on Jun Wu Xie’s body, and it was not known what was going through his mind.
As the highly bloody battle raged, Gu Yi was gasping hard for air as blood flowed out freely from the wounds on his body. As his spirit energy continued to drain out of his body, when faced with Jun Wu Xie’s attacks, he found it harder and harder to summon up his strength, where it had started when they were evenly matched, to him becoming suppressed.

Chapter 1931: “Explosive Face Slap (23)”
Gu Yi found himself being pushed harder and harder and his gaze glanced all around him constantly, attempting to find a way that could change the current situation. But what he found was only despair when in the entire battlefield, he was not able to find a single opportunity for him to turn things around.
The Twelve Palaces’ army’s morale had already been shattered. As they were made up of disciples from eleven different conflicted palaces, there was absolutely no rapport between them to even speak of, many of them holding vengeance against each other. There was no need to even mention cooperation among them as the scattered and disunited army was like a dish of loose sand, so how could they possibly be able to stand up against the well trained and disciplined iron blood army?
The incense that Jun Wu Xie had brought in before was having a immense effect on the various Palace Lords. With the passing of time, more and more of their spirit powers was being depleted and some of them had even fallen from the Silver Spirit…..
Everything was looking so dire he just could not make himself watch.
Who could have thought that with the strength of just one little young lady, she would be able to force the entire Twelve Palaces into such a helpless quandary?
Gu Yi gritted his teeth, forcing himself to hold out, but was struck to roll upon the ground from a whip of Jun Wu Xie’s vines. A mouthful of blood spurted out from his mouth, his mind buzzing in a whirl.
High up in the air, Jun Wu Xie gave the vine a slight flick and it weaved itself into a sharp sword. Purple Spirit power surged into the blade and she dove straight towards Gu Yi’s chest with a mighty lunge!
Gu Yi’s eyes flared wide open, wanting to dodge but it was already too late.
At the very last second just before Jun Wu Xie was to take Gu Yi’s life, a slender figure suddenly charged right before Gu Yi!
The sword that was shrouded in Purple Spirit glow immediately pierced right through that small petite figure.
Jun Wu Xie stared blankly at Gu Xin Yan who had suddenly rushed out to take the thrust of the blade for Gu Yi, and the murder in her eyes faded away in that instant, to be replaced by a look of shock.
[It is him!]
“Little Yan!” The moment Gu Yi’s eyes saw his daughter taking that sword thrust on his behalf, his heart immediately wrenched up tightly into a ball.
Bright crimson blood surged out from Gu Xin Yan’s wound. That sword thrust by Jun Wu Xie had been carrying the strength and power that sought to kill Gu Yi with one single strike, where not only had she been diving at an extremely fast speed, the spirit power imbued within had been highly intense. When that thrust pierced Gu Xin Yan’s chest, a devilish crimson bloom had immediately blossomed out over her chest.
“Jun Wu….. Spare him…..” A trickle of blood spilled out from a corner of Gu Xin Yan’s mouth. Her brows creased up with agony and it was when the murder had seeped out completely from Jun Wu Xie’s eyes that she clearly saw those eyes that were so familiar to her, the pair of eyes that she had seen so many times in her dreams ever since she left the Cloudy Brook Academy.
[How could she forget those eyes?]
The hand gripping the sword trembled slightly.
The sharp sword weaved from vines then quickly withdrew.
Blood droplets splattered all over the floor.
Jun Wu Xie was in a slight daze while her gaze remained fixed upon Gu Xin Yan who fell to the ground into a pool of her own blood when she lost the support from the sword that was holding her upright.
She had never intended to kill Gu Xin
Yan at all, never having even once thought of harming Gu Xin Yan at all. Though she was from the Blood Fiend Palace, but during the period of time back at the Cloudy Brook Academy when she had interacted with Gu Xin Yan, Gu Xin Yan had made Jun Wu Xie feel that she was not evil at heart. Towards this point, she had even verified it with Fei Yan, where she knew from all the information the Dragon Slayers Palace had amassed, none of it had pointed to Gu Xin Yan for all the crimes committed before.
But…..
The person whom she did not want to hurt the most, had now been wounded by her unintentionally.
What surprised Jun Wu Xie more, was that she did not see any hatred in Gu Xin Yan’s eyes, but just thick and heavy despair.
“Little Yan! Little Yan!” Gu Yi’s tears were streaming down his face sorrowfully as he stared at Gu Xin Yan, his hands all covered in Gu Xin Yan’s blood. His eyes turned red in an instant and he charged right towards Jun Wu Xie with wild abandon.
Jun Wu Xie immediately dodged in retreat, but at that very instant that she dodged, she suddenly felt a highly tyrannical surge of power charging right towards her from the back!
Volume 20
Chapter 1932: “Explosive Face Slap (24)”
Jun Wu Xie had to deal with Gu Yi’s almost maniacal attack on one side from the front, and pay attention to the strong surge of power from the back at the same time, rendering her unable to dodge in time!
A heavy and powerful palm strike struck Jun Wu Xie on her back. Jun Wu Xie endured the excruciating pain and moved herself away in the shortest time possible.
“Jun Wu Xie, you dare to kill Gu Xin Yan!” Gu Ying’s eyes were bloodshot as he stood behind Jun Wu Xie, the murder in his eyes rising up to reach an intensity never felt before.
At the moment he saw the sword in Jun Wu Xie’s hand plunge through Gu Xin Yan’s chest, Gu Ying laid back demeanor that just been enjoying the show immediately dissipated into the wind!
Jun Wu Xie’s brows furrowed together as she looked at Gu Ying who had suddenly appeared. She had actually not noticed Gu Ying’s presence in the slightest all this time. A trickle of blood flowed down through the gap in Jun Wu Xie’s helmet, looking extraordinarily bright upon the shiny silver armour.
The power from that one palm strike from Gu Ying, had actually been more powerful than Gu Yi’s!
“Gu Ying…..” Gu Yi stared at Gu Ying in shock. He would never have dreamed that Gu Ying would appear here at this place. Gu Ying had actually come to save him?
The figure of Gu Ying turned into a streak of light in that instant. Gu Yi had not even finished what he wanted to say when Gu Ying had already appeared behind him. Without giving Gu Yi any time to react at all, Gu Ying’s hand suddenly lunged straight into Gu Yi’s back!
The blood covered hand was sticking out of Gu Yi’s chest on the front, warm crimson blood flowing down Gu Ying’s arm to splatter onto ground right before Gu Yi’s feet, while gripped in his hand, was a freshly plucked out heart still beating strongly.
“Do not misunderstand. I did not come here to save you.” Gu Ying retracted back his hand, as he watched Gu Yi’s lifeless corpse fall into his blood. His devilish eyes then raised up to look at Jun Wu Xie as he gripped his hand tightly, to crush Gu Yi’s heart completely with an explosive burst!
Jun Wu Xie narrowed her eyes as she stared at Gu Ying, till the moment Gu Yi was killed, she had not taken a single step forward, but instead shot herself towards the direction Gu Xin Yan was in.
The figure of Gu Ying suddenly showed up before Jun Wu Xie to block her way, his blood covered hands lunging straight at Jun Wu Xie without mercy!
Jun Wu Xie dodged the attack swiftly, her gaze sweeping over the figure of Gu Xin Yan out of the corner of her eyes, an anxious glint flashing within.
“I had not intended to interfere with your affairs, but out of everything you should not have done, you really should not have harmed Gu Xin Yan. Even if you were to kill every single person in the Twelve Palaces, I would not care in the slightest, but you shouldn’t have harmed her.” Gu Ying’s eyes were half narrowed, and in the instant his voice fell, black robed men numbering almost a hundred suddenly appeared beside him. Among those black robed men, the least powerful among them was already a Purple Spirit, with quite a number of them Silver Spirits.
Those Silver Spirits, were actually holding powers similar to the Palace Lords of the Twelve Palaces!
Jun Wu Xie was startled, as the kind of power behind Gu Ying was definitely from somewhere highly significant.
“The Zephyr Academy’s Jun Xie was you, and the Cloudy Brook Academy’s Jun Wu was also you. Jun Wu Xie, you are indeed a capable one for me to have fallen so many times in your hands.” Gu Ying said as a bloodthirsty smile blossomed at the corners of his lips. He had not had any intentions to cross swords with Jun Wu Xie now, but Gu Xin Yan’s death had really broken through the limits.
He must make Jun Wu Xie pay the price!
The kind of power held by the band of black robed men that had suddenly appeared caused Qiao Chu and the gang who were locked in battle with the Palace Lords to be stunned in shock. Seeing the whole bunch of people surrounding Jun Wu Xie completely, Qiao Chu and the others grew anxious. The reason they had all been able to stand against the Twelve Palaces’ Palace Lords was besides them having taken the Spirit Transformation Elixir, been also because of the burning of the incense. But among that whole group of black robed men, at least twenty of them had possessed powers comparable to the Twelve Palaces’ Palace Lords, and their spirit powers had not been depleted at all!
Volume 20
Chapter 1933: “Explosive Face Slap (25)”
Coming under attack on all sides by the whole group of black robed men, even Jun Wu Xie would have a hard time escaping from there alive!
Qiao Chu and the others were frantic, but the Palace Lords battling them had noticed the appearance of Gu Ying and his men as well. The enemy’s enemy would be a friend to them so how could they possibly let Qiao Chu and his gang go save Jun Wu Xie?
The Palace Lords of the Twelve Palaces went all out explosively with the last of their strength, to hold Qiao Chu and all the others back.
“Boss! Go save Young Miss!” Ye Sha suddenly saw the entire scene, and his heart shot up into his throat in that instant.
Ye Gu pushed a Ring Spirit back with a palm strike and his figure then rushed swiftly straight towards Jun Wu Xie!
But every single one of the Palace Lords ordered all their Ring Spirits to drag down Ye Gu’s movements at any cost. Ye Gu was extremely powerful, but the Ring Spirits were of enormous size. When they all charged at him with everything they had at the same time, they managed to fully block Ye Gu’s way forward completely!
“Out of my way!” Ye Gu clenched his teeth tight and his devil spirit power turned into swords to shoot out of him in an unstopping stream!
The Young Miss must not come to any harm!
The Ring Spirits had received orders to stand till their deaths, and they would not give way no matter what.
And the men that Gu Ying brought in had already initiated their attack upon Jun Wu Xie.
Besieged on all sides by more than twenty Silver Spirits and over ten Purple Spirits, even the Flame Demons Palace Lord at peak condition would not be able to withstand such an onslaught!
Jun Wu Xie felt as if spirit powers that could encompass the skies and cover the earth all shooting right towards her. Her Selvan’s armour was constantly changing its form and state, remaining in a high state of defence, repeatedly blocking out so many of the strong and powerful attacks!
But no matter how powerful the Selvan’s armour was, it was not able to withstand such a concentrated attack of such intensity and the speed of its transformations was beginning to be unable to keep up with the attacks from so many Silver Spirits.
In the instant that the Selvan’s armour concentrated its powers to deflect an attack from the back, another Silver Spirit saw the opportunity to strike right upon Jun Wu Xie’s he
ad.
Jun Wu Xie was completely locked in with no way out and could only steel herself to receive the strike!
A clear clang sounded!
The Selvan’s armour covering Jun Wu Xie’s head shattered with that sound, and a deep wound opened on Jun Wu Xie’s forehead good and proper, where a crack could even be seen on the skull.
Having suffered such a violent strike upon the head, Jun Wu Xie’s mind immediately buzzed loudly in her head, her eyes losing focus and everything turned blurry. She could only rely upon her subconscious mind to fend off any of those attacks but having lost her sight, wanting to avoid such an intense assault from so many directions was completely impossible!
A series of crisp cracking sounds rang out, and the Selvan’s armour on Jun Wu Xie’s body was split and cracked in many places, its defensive powers reduced to almost zero!
Wounds big and small covered all over Jun Wu Xie’s body. She forcibly endured the excruciating pain and bit down to break the elixir she hid in her teeth. Only like this, would she then completely fall.
Qiao Chu and the others saw Jun Wu Xie being surrounded and attacked by so many powerful pugilists and their hearts were almost bursting with worry and anxiety. But the various Palace Lords were holding the companions back with everything they’ve got, even at the cost of their very lives, but they would not allow any of the companions to get closer to Jun Wu Xie a single step!
Gu Ying stared coldly at Jun Wu Xie’s completely wretched looking state and his eyes flashed with a chilling bloodthirsty glint.
Jun Wu Xie’s eyes were unable to see things too clearly and the wound on her forehead was affecting her a great deal. She could feel that her head had taken a severe hit and she was not able to maintain a clear state of mind.
