The Story of the Swordsman
Ambushes



"We'll be there in twenty minutes." Yun Huanxin said.


It had been nearly two days since they left the sect, they were currently on their way to the Mythological Realm.


Yun Lintian, who was sitting beside him, asked, "Third Aunt, how long do we have to stay there? I forgot to ask you about this."


"One month. After a month you'll be forced out of the mythical realm." Yun Huanxin replied. He said further, "However, there was an unusual circumstance that happened last time. Someone tried to break through from the Essence Realm to the Spirit Realm in that place. Somehow, the entire mythical realm trembled and expelled everyone before the deadline."


Yun Lintian frowned: "Did this first happen? There should have been some people who tried to do that in the past, right?" He could not believe that no one had tried to break through in the mythical realm in the past. After all, the Mythological Realm of the Blazing Sun existed for thousands of years.


Yun Huanxin explained, "Of course, this is not the first time people have tried to make a breakthrough in that place. But this was the first time people were expelled before reaching the deadline. Your aunt Ruanyu tried to figure out what happened. However, he was unable to find anything in the end ... In my opinion, the mythical realm might start to weaken because I could feel the energy around the mythical realm gate had diminished a lot. So I think there might be some unexpected circumstances later. You have to be careful there."


"I understand, Third Aunt." Yun Lintian recorded everything in his mind. He felt a little worried after listening to this.


"Regarding seizing whatever supreme treasure it is, I don't want you to think too much about it. Just watch your safety first." Yun Huanxin said solemnly. He saw it growing day by day from the first day he arrived at the Sect. Unknowingly, he loved her too much.


Yun Lintian could see the sincerity in his eyes.


"Don't worry, Third Aunt. I love my life. I won't die so easily." Yun Lintian replied in a relaxed tone. When it came to his own safety, he was confident he could protect himself well.


Yun Lintian turned to look at the group of beautiful women inside the carriage and said with a solemn expression, "Sister senior, I know some of you may never kill before. You only need to remember one thing, if you don't kill them, they will kill you and your fellow sisters. Whatever happens, never show mercy to the enemy."


It was true, some of them had never killed anyone before. Since this was their first time taking part in the exploration, Yun Lintian did not want to see any of them lose their lives because they were not cruel enough.


These nine women were carefully selected by Yun Ruanyu. They possessed powers at the ninth and tenth levels of the Essence Realm, which could be considered geniuses, given their age of under eighteen. Although they had such powerful strength, they were not very experienced. Yun Lintian needed to explain and show what they should do.


The train arrived in the thick forest.


Yun Huanxin stopped the carriage and said coldly: "Since all of you have come, why do you keep hiding like rats?"


"Haha! I'm sorry, Hall Master Yun. I just want to flirt a little bit with you." Said a tall figure appearing behind a distant tree. He had the appearance of an old man in his eighties, with a long white beard and gray hair. He was wearing white clothes with a sword symbol on his chest. In his hand was a beautiful long sword and his entire body was emitting a powerful sword intent. Although he gave an apology, there was not the slightest bit of guilt on his face.


"Oh, are you alive?" Yun Huanxin replied coldly. The man in front of him was Ji Yi, the Great Elder of the Profound Sword Sect.


"We haven't seen each other for several years, but Hall Master Yun's mouth is still as poisonous as ever.?" Ji Yi chuckled, looking indifferent. His eyes looked at Yun Lintian for a while and he wondered who this young man was. The disciples of the Misty Cloud Sect were famous for remaining pure and far from the opposite sex. Why did this young man appear with them?


"Are you going to stay hidden, Huo Shan?" Yun Huanxin ignored Ji Yi and spoke coldly in a certain direction.


"I never thought that you were the one who came, Yun Huanxin." A male voice rang out, and a silhouette slowly appeared before everyone. He was wearing a fiery red outfit with the inscription 'Holy Fire' on his chest. It was obvious he was someone from the Sacred Fire Sect.


"However, I'm curious. Who is this young man? If you need a man, why don't you come to me? I believe it can make you feel better than this young man" Huo Shan said.


"Hmph! Good dogs do not block the road. Get out of front of me!" Yun Huanxin said coldly. He ignored Huo Shan's words and urged the horses to come forward.


The pressure from the Heaven Realm practitioners was too intense. Yun Lintian and his nine female seniors felt as if they were being suppressed by a huge mountain, causing them to be unable to breathe.


Yun Huanxin's eyes turned cold. He waved his delicate hand slightly, and two space cracks appeared behind Ji Yi and Huo Shan. Two sword silhouettes emerged from within the space crack, leading to their heads.


Ji Yi and Huo Shan were shocked. They quickly activated the energy barrier around their bodies. However, Yun Huanxin's attack was too fast and extremely deadly. Their barrier could not even fully form in time and was instantly shattered the moment the sword hit them.


Bang out!


The impact sent Ji Yi and Huo Shan hundreds of meters away. A huge energy surged out from the two of them as they were about to counterattack. Unfortunately, Yun Huanxin did not give them a chance. Several space cracks appeared around them and several swords directly aimed at Ji Yi and Huo Shan.


"Don't delay! Yun Huanxin!" Huo Shan cried out in despair as he attempted to fend off the incoming sword.


Unlike Huo Shan, Ji Yi's eyes were calm. He gripped his sword tightly as his body was filled with an enormous sword intent. As he swung his sword forward, countless deadly light shot toward the incoming sword and Yun Huanxin's group.


Booms!


A loud voice echoed throughout the forest. In front of them, there was a gray-colored barrier that had blocked Ji Yi's attack. Yun Lintian and his nine female seniors were safe under the protection of Yun Huanxin.


The figures of Ji Yi and Huo Shan could be seen in the distance. Their current appearance was extremely pitiful.


Yun Lintian looked at the tiny figure in front of him with an amazed expression. She did not expect her Third Aunt to be this strong. He could easily suppress Heaven Realm practitioners like Ji Yi and Huo Shan at the same time with just a wave of his hand ... What kind of ability is that? That's so cool! Yun Lintian was greatly amazed by Yun Huanxin's attack technique.


"Do you want to continue?" Yun Huanxin removed the barrier and asked firmly. His arms were crossed in front of his flat chest, staring at his opponents calmly.


"Hehe, congratulations, Hall Master Yun. Looks like your strength is increasing again." Suddenly, a figure slowly descended from the sky. This figure was a white-haired old man wearing a white-colored robe with gold embroidery. His name was Qi Hao, Imperial Protector.


Yun Huanxin had already realized the existence of this old man since earlier. Because of him, Yun Huanxin did not try to finish off Ji Yi and Huo Shan. It was not that he was afraid of her, but rather that the old man could use his status to summon everyone to attack her for reasons of justice. He didn't want that to happen at this time.


"The Crown Prince personally came this time?" Yun Huanxin replied indifferently. If Qi Hao had appeared here, the Crown Prince, Qi Yuanfeng, would have definitely come here as well.


Qi Hao laughed slightly: "That's right. His Highness the Crown Prince personally came this time." He paused for a moment while staring at Yun Lintian. He asked, "May I know the identity of this young man?" Similar to Ji Yi and Huo Shan, he was also curious about Yun Lintian.


Yun Huanxin replied clearly, "This is our Young Master, Yun Lintian."


Qi Hao was surprised: "Young Master? Could ..."


Yun Huanxin nodded and proudly introduced, "Yes. He is the son of our Sect Master."


Upon hearing that, Qi Hao's expression along with Ji Yi and Huo Shan, who had just stood up, changed drastically.
