Chapter 26: Shameless Ambush

  The battle between the two great swordsmen was extremely fierce, with swords clashing and everything within a ten-meter radius shattering into pieces.

  As Li Aihou and Pali's fighting position continued to move towards himself, Hai Tian already understood in his heart, a cold intent flashing in his eyes, he whispered to Xiaoyu beside him: "Wait for them to come over later and then crush that red jade pendant."

  "I understand. Tian Ge, but will they really take action?" Xiaoyu asked worriedly, after all, the strength of the two was still too low, and even Haitian only had the power of six segments of sword, how could he withstand the attack of a great swordsman?

  "Hmph! Since they dared to make a move, I won't be polite anymore. Xiaoyu, after crushing the red jade pendant, immediately dodge to the left! Those two are mine!" Haitian's appearance looked very intimidating, with his sword spirit energy slowly gathering around his body.

  Xiao Yu nodded slightly, he understood the gap in strength between himself and Hai Tian. Staying here would not only fail to help Hai Tian, but also become a burden to him.

  "Die! Pari!" Li Aihou bellowed, his hands grasping the Xuanjie primary sword emitting a red glow, which descended with lightning speed and momentum.

  Ke Pa Li was no fool either, and he hastily used the Huo Yun sword in his hand to block it. The red hilt of the sword also emitted a faint glow, and the surging sword spirit energy gathered continuously on the body of the sword.

  "Bang!" A loud crash was heard, and the two Xuanjie swords clashed fiercely, releasing a visible shockwave that spread out instantly. Everything in its path, whether it was walls or floor tiles, shattered into pieces.

  The battle between the two great masters brought everything to a standstill, with everyone gathering around to watch. The fight between the two had already affected others, either directly or indirectly. Many people were not defeated by their opponents, but were injured by the terrifying aftermath.

  Perhaps to avoid arousing Hai Tian's suspicion, the two men's battle did not always move in the direction where Hai Tian Xiao Yu was standing, but instead stopped from time to time, sometimes going left and sometimes right, yet they would advance a little every now and then.

  The two were now only about ten meters away from Haitian and Xiaoyu. Haitian narrowed his eyes slightly, glanced at Kasa beside him, and coldly said: "Xiaoyu, get ready."

  Xiao Yu silently nodded, and the red jade pendant that the Li family had given them earlier appeared in his hand, ready to be crushed at any moment.

  At this moment, Li Aihou and Pali suddenly retreated one step at the same time, shouting in unison: "Sword Sweeps Across the Sky (Blazing Thunder)!"

  In an instant, the two long swords emitted dazzling light, and a vast amount of sword spirit energy was transmitted from their bodies to the swords, and then shot out through the swords.

  "Xiao Yu! Now!" Hai Tian hastily shouted. In an instant, he and Xiao Yu simultaneously crushed the red jade pendants they had obtained from the Li family earlier, and a half-radius, one-person-high red thin film suddenly appeared.

  The two masters looked at each other and tacitly pointed their long swords towards the sea and sky.

  In an instant, two red rays of light shot out from the sword, with a speed so swift that it was like a thunderbolt striking the heavens.

  "Brother Tian!" Xiaoyu couldn't believe that the two great swordsmen would sneak attack Haitian so shamelessly, and she hastily cried out in alarm.

  "Bang!" A crisp sound came, and the red membrane in front of Haitian shattered like a bubble. The eyes of the two great swordsmen flashed with a hint of triumphant smile, after all, Haitian's threat to them was too great.

  Suddenly, waves of heat kept coming.

  Haitian did not expect that Parry and Li Aihou would be so shameless, as a great sword master, they actually chose to launch a sneak attack on a swordsman who had not even reached the level of a one-star swordmaster.

  "Damn it!" Haotian cursed under his breath, realizing that he had been too high-profile recently, making the two big families feel threatened, and thus they wanted to get rid of him in this way.

  Feeling the scorching heat by his ear, Haitian instinctively threw out the only remaining red jade pendant in his hand. In an instant, another red membrane appeared in front of Haitian, and the scorching sensation weakened a lot.

  This red jade pendant can indeed withstand a full-force blow from a one-star great sword master, but now there are two great sword masters, and one of them is three-star, while the other is even five-star.

  Their full-strength blow, could this small red jade pendant withstand it?

  "Bang!" Just a few seconds later, the red membrane in front of him shattered again, and two red lights rushed towards the sea and sky with astonishing momentum.

  "Brother Tian!" Xiaoyu was anxiously pacing back and forth on the side, but there was nothing she could do.

  Haitian had heard Xiaoyu's call, but now he didn't have time to respond. Before he could even catch his breath, the two red lights were closing in on him.

  Suddenly, the afterglow of the sea and sky swept to Kasa not far away, and his heart was overjoyed. He hurriedly rushed towards Kasa. Now only Kasa can save him!

  The idea is good, but reality is cruel. Although Haitian and Kasar are only a dozen meters apart, the two red lights are too fast, and in a moment they hit Haitian's back.

  "Brother Tian!" Xiaoyu exclaimed loudly.

  "Whoa!" A scorching heat wave came from behind, and Haitian stumbled, spitting out a mouthful of thick blood. But his footsteps didn't stop, and he pounced directly at the completely stunned Kasa.

  "How is this possible?" Li Aihou and Pali were both completely shocked, neither of them had expected that Haitian could still move in such a situation, and it was just coughing up blood.

  However, Haitian understood in his heart that he was relying on the power of the yellow-class battle armor on his body to hold on. Otherwise, with the attacks of these two great swordsmen, he would have been blown away without even leaving a single piece behind.

  Such a stunning change left the two family masters in attendance completely stunned. No one had expected that Parry and Li Aihou would join forces to attack a young man with only six segments of sword energy, and what surprised them even more was that Haitian had actually held on.

  At this moment, everyone's brain was frozen, and Kasar was no exception. Although he had already cultivated the power of the seventh sword, he had never experienced a big scene before, and it was already good that he could stand up to such a situation.

  "Not good!" Parry quickly reacted and understood that Haitian was going to attack Kasa, so he immediately raised the Huoyun sword, preparing to launch another sword technique. But before he could do so, Haitian's voice rang out.

  "Halt!" Seizing the moment when everyone was stunned, Haitian quickly arrived at Kasa's side and clutched his throat with his left hand, coldly ordering Pari. By the time Kasa came to his senses, he had been completely subdued by Haitian and couldn't move.

  It may have seemed like a long time ago, but in fact the past time was very short, just a few seconds of things, and the situation has completely reversed.

  Whether it was Pa Li or Li Aihuan, they both found it difficult to accept that a little six-segment sword cultivator not only escaped from under their swords but also captured a hostage.

  "Good heavens, nephew, it was all a misunderstanding just now. Quickly release Kasa!" Parry cried out in a hurry, pretending as if nothing had happened.

  At this time, Xiaoyu saw Haitian rush over and hurriedly ran to his front, seeing that his face was very pale, and asked with concern: "Tian Ge, how are you?"

  "I'm fine, just a bit shaken up inside." Haitian comforted with a smile, then raised his head, his eyes coldly staring at the innocent-looking Parri, and said loudly, "Parri tribe leader, that last blow almost killed me, is this also called a misunderstanding? Or next time I kill you, can I also say it's a misunderstanding?"

  "What?" The word choked off Pari's sentence, leaving him completely speechless.

  Anyone with eyes can see that Pari was intentionally ambushing Haitian just now, and now he's saying it was a misunderstanding. This makes them somewhat disapproving. However, both Pari and Li Aihou are masters of their respective families, so they can only remain silent.

  The rain was no longer a concern, earlier letting Haitian almost lose his life. He had been holding back a belly full of anger and loudly cursed: "You old turtle, as a Five-Star Great Sword Master, you actually openly ambushed Tian Ge! Our Hai family previously lent you the Huoyun sword, but now you want to harm Tian Ge? Do you still have any face?"

  This torrent of abuse left Parry speechless, his old face flushing bright red. Suddenly, Parry shouted loudly: "You little rabbit, I'm going to kill you!"

  Suddenly, a red light burst forth from the Fire Cloud Sword.

  "Halt! Pari, don't you want your son's life? Or do you not believe I can kill him before you attack Xiaoyu?" Haitian shouted urgently as he saw Pari about to attack Xiaoyu.

  The cold drink from Haitian was like a basin of cold water poured over Parri's head, quickly calming him down. Now that Kasara is still in Haitian's hands, if he acts rashly, he will surely get Kasara killed.

  "Damn it! Why did I let Kasa come here?" The Patriarch of the Pa Li tribe couldn't help but curse, but now it's too late.

  He snorted, and Hai Tian shifted his gaze to Li Ai Hu: "I don't seem to have any deep grudges with your Li family, do I? Why did you join forces with Pa Ri to attack me? And want to kill me?"

  "Who made you so talented? You've reached the power of a sixth-rank sword in just over a month, which is a huge hidden danger for our Li family. We can't let you continue to exist." Li Aihou was very calm and didn't raise his voice, but as soon as he spoke, it caused a huge commotion.

  "Hey, did you hear that? Old Man Li said the young master of the Hai family reached the power of six segments in just one month. Did I mishear?" A disciple of the Li family looked at Haitian in shock from a distance.

  The person beside him also nodded woodenly: "No, you didn't mishear, I heard it too. How is this possible? Reaching the power of six swords in just one month!"

  Such discussions immediately spread to every corner, and the masters of both families suddenly knew about Hai Tian's terrifying cultivation speed. They also immediately understood why two great swordsmen would sneak up on a small child with six segments of sword energy.
