Chapter 511: 511
True to his word, the master from the Heavenly Sword Sect broke out into a cold scoff.
He looked at the somewhat bewildered crowd and spoke out directly.
“Ladies and Gentlemen, I should admit that I passed the trials. I am Jian Wuhui, an inner disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect in the Holy City.”
Although the crowd was not quite sure what Jian Wuhui meant, they were still visibly startled.
Many of them came from the Holy City.
Of course, they had heard about the reputation of the Heavenly Sword Sect, as it is one of the strongest and unyielding sword-cultivation sects in the central region!
And sword cultivation, the practice of mastering the intent of the sword, requires an incredibly high level of mental fortitude!
It was logical then, that Jian Wuhui, who was able to pass the trials, had attained such a level.
“Brother Wuhui, what do you mean by that?” someone curiously asked.
Jian Wuhui grinned, looking at Jiang Xiaobai and his companions and pointed at them suddenly.
“I was the first to pass the trials, followed by these two. While we were waiting, the gate suddenly swung open, revealing abundant treasures inside.”
“My initial suggestion was to share it amongst everyone. Since we met by destiny’s design, it only seemed fair. But this person, out of his insatiable greed, seized all the treasures when I was unprepared!”
“Tell me, shouldn’t he be made to hand over the treasures?”
At this remark, Jiang Xiaobai was left dumbstruck.
Such a vile creature, he cursed mentally. How such words could be spoken so brazenly.
Ao Yan erupted in anger!
Having not encountered such malicious intent in her life before, she retorted, “Have some shame! It’s clear that we passed the trials before you. What’s wrong with us claiming the treasures?”
As soon as those words came out, Jiang Xiaobai knew he was in trouble, but it was too late to stop her.
Sure enough, a mocking smile crept onto Jian Wuhui’s face.
The shock was evident on everyone else’s face, followed by outrage.
“Well, now. It seems like you’re the shameless ones!”
“Such blatant lies! With your level, you dare claim you passed the trials before us?”
“Exactly, Brother Wuhui is a mid-stage Transcending Tribulation cultivator and a sword cultivating disciple of the Heavenly Sword Sect, extremely strong and formidable. How can he possibly trail behind you? Are you taking us for fools?”
Jian Wuhui also chimed in opportunistically, providing additional provocations, “That’s right. If you really did pass the trial before me, then it was your own admission that you took the treasures.”
“There are many of us here. Isn’t it a bit excessive for you alone to seize a whole room full of treasures?”
Looking at Jian Wuhui’s face, Ao Yan clenched her fists, her face colorless with rage.
She was livid!
How can there be such a shameless person in this world?
The people, who were unaware of the real situation, all turned cold and surrounded the group. They demanded Jiang Xiaobai to hand over the treasures or face their wrath!
“Hmph, why waste words on such a shameless person? He’s only a late-stage cultivator. Ignorant and foolish, just kill him straight away!”
“And afterwards we can evenly divide the treasures amongst us!”
Suddenly, someone from the crowd shouted out.
Ao Cheng let out a cold chuckle, “What a joke! Do you believe you can simply take away what belongs to me?”
“If you want to fight, then let’s fight. Do you think I’m afraid?”
Jiang Xiaobai too, narrowed his eyes. He realized the situation was already out of control, with this man standing right before him being the root cause of all the chaos!
This was truly nauseating.
As such, Jiang Xiaobai decided to make the first move!
Naturally, he would not hand over his possessions. If he didn’t, the others would attack. So he might as well seize the initiative!
In the blink of an eye, Jiang Xiaobai vanished and reappeared directly in front of Jian Wuhui, his Vast Rainbow sword slashing down without hesitation!
Everyone was taken aback while Jian Wuhui, who hadn’t anticipated Jiang Xiaobai daring to make the first move, was also taken aback, quickly retreating while raising his sword in defense.
But this strike from Jiang Xiaobai carried his full strength and fury!
He already comprehended the Nine Heavens Starry Sky Sword Technique to the third realm, the great perfection stage!
With the terrifying power of this sword attack, along with the horrifying effect of his divine sword, Vast Rainbow, even Jian Wuhui’s defensive sword stance was useless!
His sword was instantly shattered by Vast Rainbow!
Jian Wuhui was utterly shocked amidst the flurry of fragments. He used all his strength to dodge to the left, narrowly evading a lethal strike.
However, even so, Jiang Xiaobai’s sword almost severed Jian Wuhui’s right shoulder.
The wound was alarmingly severe!
His first attack unsuccessful, Jiang Xiaobai was not surprised. After all, Jian Wuhui is a mid-stage Transcending Tribulation expert, and should have some form of reaction capability.
Immediately after, Jiang Xiaobai dashed forward, attempting another attack.
Without his weapon, Jian Wuhui would either die or be seriously crippled under this strike!
In the split second, Jian Wuhui let out a furious roar.
“Jiang Xiaobai, you will regret this, I will make sure of it!”
Having said that, Jian Wuhui vanished into thin air!
Such a tactic left Jiang Xiaobai surprised. Did this man also possess a teleportation talisman?
However, he didn’t think about it much. The current situation was still dangerous, he needed to deal with the surrounding people first.
At the moment Jiang Xiaobai made his move, Ao Yan, Ao Cheng, and the others also lunged. Six of them, overpowering more than a dozen!
Although top combatants were only Jiang Xiaobai and Ao Yan, not all the opponents were Transcending Tribulation experts, and they had been taken by surprise by Jiang Xiaobai and his companions.
Suddenly, the enemies were in disarray, hastily defending themselves.
To add to the chaos, Jiang Xiaobai was demonstrating his prowess. The improvements he had gained before the trials began broke out in full at this moment.
The Dragon Transforming Cloud Step was incredibly formidable. Compared to his previous evasion technique, this body technique had better combat effectiveness!
Like a phantom, he danced among the crowd, his speed so swift that no one could detect his trace!
Additionally, Jiang Xiaobai’s sword technique was also extremely terrifying.
Just a minute into the fight, he had already slain three people, including an early-stage Transcending Tribulation cultivator!
Seeing this, those who were eyeing the treasures were scared out of their minds!
“What the hell! How can a late-stage cultivator have such a terrifying power?”
“Can even an early-stage Transcending Tribulation expert be easily slaughtered?”
Meanwhile, Jian Wuhui, who ignited the situation, had also fled using a unique method, causing those who were still fighting to lose the guts to face Jiang Xiaobai.
One after another, they scurried out of the grand hall!
“Hmph, a bunch of incompetent curs, swayed by the wind like leaves, thought they could pick on me?”
“And they dare to slander my sister, do they have a death wish?”
Ao Cheng looked coldly in the direction of the fleeing men, snorting derisively.
Throughout the battle, the six suffered no injuries. After all, most of the frenzied massacring was done by Jiang Xiaobai, who was more than enough to handle this group on his own.
After driving everyone away, Jiang Xiaobai didn’t think much about it, only making a mental note of Jian Wuhui of the Heavenly Sword Sect.
“We should check out our winnings quickly. Those people won’t leave things as they are. We have to flee as soon as possible.”
Jiang Xiaobai said urgently.
