Silver Overlord Chapter 224

Chapter 224 - Turn of Events

Translator: Myuu  Editor: Myuu

When two real experts crossed swords, their movements were as quick as lightning. They killed people easily as though they were cutting through vegetables. From the moment the two disciples from the Wise Ruler Sect emerged from the bushes, up until the male disciple made his way to the old Shatu man, the entire process merely took a few seconds.

A rumbling noise rang out.

Just when the disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect neared the old Shatu man, the other warrior beside him in dark red suddenly moved. His palms suddenly turned black with a metallic sheen on them. With an angry snarl, he pushed out his palms. Both his hands collided with the Wise Ruler Sect’s disciple’s thrusting sword. An explosion rang out, and the longsword was sent flying.

However, the moment the longsword was knocked away from the hands of the Wise Ruler Sect’s male disciple, an even more brilliant snowy white sword gleam came flying out from his sleeves. Other than the sword gleam, the figure of the male disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect who was rushing forward suddenly split into two. It was as though he had gained another shadow. The brilliant snowy white sword gleam also suddenly split into two. The Shatu warrior spread his arms open to catch the two sword gleams. However, a third sword gleam suddenly appeared between the two of them like a bird from the heavens. Before the Shatu warrior could even react, the third sword gleam had already circled around his neck…

His head was sent flying, and a fountain of blood came gushing out from the stump of his neck. The Shatu warrior was instantly killed by the male disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect.

Yan Liqiang felt parched while his blood raced from witnessing the scene. So this was how a real expert fought. Compared to experts like him, the Martial Arts County Trial Examination from back then was nothing but a child’s game. It made Yan Liqiang question himself. If he were in that Shatu warrior’s shoes, he probably wouldn’t be able to defend against a technique like that, and he would definitely be killed immediately.

This disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect was simply too powerful.

“DIE…!” The male disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect flashed like a bolt of lightning. Before the Shatu warrior’s body fell to the ground, he charged past the bloody rain from the sky. Raising the longsword in his hand, he leaped up and brought it down like a heaven-splitting great axe onto the flames which shrouded the old man…

Enveloped within the flames, the old Shatu man remained unmoving. However, the flame shield flickered and then slightly dimmed. At the same time, the male disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect was sent flying backward from the powerful impact.

The old Shatu man finally spoke. “Disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect…” His gaze bored into the disciple who was sent flying backwards. His voice was hoarse, yet he spoke fluent Chinese. The tone of his voice was chilling.

“That’s right. I am from the Wise Ruler Sect…!” The moment the male disciple’s foot touched the ground after being sent flying away for over twenty meters, he charged toward the old Shatu man again. “The priest from the Sacred Flame of the Shatu Alliance dares to appear in our Great Han Empire and incite trouble. Are you really treating the people of the Great Han Empire like air? Hahaha, I will be able to complete my Junior Martial Sister’s and my trial mission as long as we bring your head back to the Wise Ruler Sect. Today’s date will be marked as your death anniversary next year! Let’s see how many more blows your tortoise shell can take from my sword! DIE…!”

“Let me assist you, Senior Martial Brother…!”

The female disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect, whom Yan Liqiang had met before, managed to dispose every single Shatu guard who charged toward her in just a flash. The Shatu warrior who used a pair of sickles had been stabbed in the heart by a sword despite its magnificent brilliance. The lady then stepped on his chest and crushed his breastbone. With a crunch, a huge sunken depression was instantly made in his chest. He sprayed out a mouthful of blood and fell onto the ground. That seemed to be the end for him.

The lady yelled, then charged toward Sacred Flame priest too.

Despite their numbers, the number of Shatu people was reduced to only one in just a flash.

Yan Liqiang’s warbow was previously aimed at the old Shatu man. Yet the flames that appeared around him greatly intimidated Yan Liqiang. At first, he thought it was some secret technique from that old Shatu man. He only found out that it was some sort of spirit talisman that the old Shatu man carried on him when he heard the shouts of the disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect. Yan Liqiang had never heard about it before, but it seemed like it could form a protective shield around someone for a short period of time. Even an arrow shot from a five-picul powerful bow was rendered powerless against it. Knowing this, Yan Liqiang hesitated, wondering if he should strike and expose himself.

Little did Yan Liqiang expect that the moment he made up his mind to attack, there was no one else present apart from the Sacred Flame priest. It seemed like he wasn’t needed at all; just the two disciples from the Wise Ruler Sect alone were enough to control the situation. They were just so highly efficient at killing. In terms of close quarters combat, even ten Yan Liqiangs couldn’t even come close to the both of them.

After the female disciple from the Wise Ruler Sect rushed over to the male disciple, both of them joined hands and surrounded the old Shatu man in magnificent sword gleams.

The layer of flame shield around the old Shatu man formed by the spirit talisman was akin to the red hot steel at Yan Liqiang’s blacksmith workshop back at home. The flames radiated all around under the heavy blows. The shield seemed to grow dimmer after every attack it sustained.

Yan Liqiang instantly loosened himself up. From the looks of it, the two disciples from the Wise Ruler Sect would be able to tear the old Shatu man’s tortoise shell down sooner or later. The old Shatu man didn’t seem to be someone who possessed powerful martial arts either. The outcome seemed to have been set already. He only needed to remain as a spectator and retrieve Goldie at the end before leaving.

However, Yan Liqiang’s eyelids twitched all of a sudden. He suddenly realized that the fallen Shatu warrior, who supposedly died earlier from having his heart impaled by the female disciple’s sword and his breastbone crushed, was moving…

Yan Liqiang thought his eyes were either playing tricks on him or what he saw were post mortem spasms that occurred right after the Shatu warrior’s death. In that split second, Yan Liqiang nearly cried out because the supposedly dead Shatu warrior was suddenly up on his feet again. He flung his arm, sending his sickle-looking weapon flying. Like a ray of light, it flew toward the two disciples’ backs who were completely oblivious to the approaching danger…

At this moment, Yan Liqiang couldn’t afford to worry about keeping himself hidden.

Yan Liqiang abruptly stood up and cried out loudly, “WATCH OUT…!” With the Horned Python Bow in his hands, he promptly let loose an arrow which collided against the gleaming weapon the Shatu warrior had sent out like a bolt of lightning. The sudden impact instantly knocked it off its course…

At the same time, a loud noise erupted at the scene. Harsh red light filled the perimeter of a hundred meters. The defensive shield layer surrounding the old Shatu man shattered at the same exact moment. A few groans were also heard almost at the same time…
